Glad to see some of you liked how protective Draco is of Severus. In a way Severus could use a little help from Draco, and seeing as I have a little lesson for the young Malfoy it will be a good asset to the story.
No bashing either, maybe some ugly words at first but no actual bashing.
I don't own Harry Potter.
Enjoy!
"Hello dearest." Severus stood still as a figure emerged from the dark corner. He would move if he could but it was either shock or something else holding him to the spot.
"Who are you? How'd you get in here?" he had his wand in his robes, but he couldn't move to pull it out.
"Why I'm your admirer of course. Surely you knew I would come since I sent my letter this morning." The figure walked closer, from what Severus could see a man with pale skin, was about his age, had long dark hair tied back in a ponytail, dark eyes, and wore a dark suit.
"Yes I knew, but how did you get into my rooms?"
"I used the door of course, it wasn't locked." He was lying, Severus always locked his doors whenever he left. "Now, allow me to introduce myself. My name is Victor, Victor Lucifer Vladislaus."
"Vladislaus?" Why did that name sound familiar?
"Yes, I'm quite famous you know." The man was soon just a few feet away and Severus still couldn't move. "But enough about that, what's say we talk about you?" 'Victor' put his hand on Severus' shoulder and soon enough Severus felt his whole body move on its own, towards the bed?
"What…?" he found himself unable to speak, what was happening? He couldn't get his wand because his body wasn't obeying his will.
"Now now, don't be afraid." He suddenly found himself sitting down on the bed, lying back against the pillows as Victor towered over him. "We can go as slow as you like, and then we'll just take it from wherever."
"Get…off me." he felt Victor's eyes on him, and suddenly found himself staring into two deep pools of red.
"But Severus…don't you want to feel loved?" Victor leaned down and whispered in his ear. "I can show you so much love, far better than you could ever imagine or feel from a mere human." Severus felt Victor's fingers trail from up his stomach over his torso, and his cold lips running from his ear to his neck.
"Ahh.." he felt his body grow hot under Victor's touch, but also fear as his other hand moved across his thighs. "Get off me." Victor looked up and smiled.
"Don't worry, you'll like it." The hand on his chest rubbed over his pecks, attempting to touch clothed skin whiles the one on his thigh starting inching towards the buttons of his pants. Severus didn't know what to do, he was panicking; this man who stalked and sent him honey-worded letters was about to take him and he couldn't move.
"Severus?" a knock came to the door. "Are you alright?" it was Dumbledore. Victor stopped looking back at the door, and cleared his throat.
"I'm fine headmaster, I just needed some time alone." He mimicked Severus' voice.
'No…Albus help me.' Severus prayed Dumbledore would come in.
"Is there anything I can do?"
"No thank you sir, I'll do fine." Victor's hand moved to unbutton his pants and Severus whimpered. "You can get back to the party."
"Very well then, I'll just…expelliarmus!" the door blasted open and struck the wall near Victor. "Who are you?" Victor opened his mouth and hissed at Dumbledore, before flying out the bedroom window. "Severus…" Dumbledore checked the window then went over to Severus' side as he slowly regained control of his body.
"Albus…" Severus breathed in and out holding his hand over his chest where Victor had touched.
"Severus who was that?" Albus helped him stand and Severus quickly straightened himself up as he heard footsteps coming down the hall.
"Professors?" it was Potter's group, Black, and Lupin.
"All of you go back to the party, except Remus and Sirius and get Kingsley as well." Everyone raced off quickly as Severus started to regain his senses. "Severus, who was that?"
"I…my stalker."
"Did he give you a name?" Severus nodded.
"Vladislaus, Victor Vladislaus." He saw Albus' blue eyes widen.
"Oh dear, come with me." Albus led him out of his rooms, warded the area and they walked straight up to his office entrance where everyone, including Draco and Potter were waiting.
"Mr. Malfoy and Mr. Potter what are you doing here?"
"They insisted on coming." Remus. "I can't get them to budge."
"Oh, well everyone come along; Licorice Snap." The gargoyle moved and they walked into the office and Dumbledore shut the door.
"Albus what's happened?" Kingsley.
"That force we've been sensing was just in the castle." Their eyes all widened except Severus'. "It's worse than any death eater I can think of."
"What is it?" Remus.
"A vampire." That time their jaws dropped.
"Albus…are you sure?" Dumbledore nodded.
"He was after Severus." They all turned to Severus who looked away. "I felt the presence in the dungeons, and then I remembered Harry telling me Severus had gone to his rooms for something so I went to check on him. I didn't sense it at first, but when I reached Severus' quarters it was strong. I managed to scare him off."
"He was after Snape?" Black looked at Severus with confusion, and Draco made his way over to Severus.
"Was he the one sending you those notes?" Potter asked and Snape slowly nodded. "Oh no."
"What notes?" Black.
"Severus has been receiving love notes from an admirer since last week, around the same time this vampire appeared."
"Did he try kidnapping Severus?" Kingsley.
"No." Severus answered. "He tried to…" he felt himself tremble, but calmed down as he felt Draco's hand on his arm.
"You don't have to say it Severus, now it's obvious this man won't just leave. If I know vampires like I think I do he won't stop until he has Severus."
"So what can we do, how did he get through the wards?" Potter.
"Vampires are stronger than us Harry, their own power overcomes ours and they can easily slip through shields and barriers. It would take a strong field to repel him, but it takes a huge amount of magic to create such a field." Lupin answered him.
"So in other words Professor Snape won't be safe in Hogwarts anymore?"
"I'm afraid not Mr. Malfoy."
"Then why not use that powerful field over the school?" Black.
"That field would throw off all the creatures around the school grounds Sirius, not to mention it could harm some of the younger students since it can mess with some inner magic. The youngers would end up losing control and confused with the barrier's powerful effects."
"It would take someone with strong will to uphold against it." Lupin.
"So does this mean Snape has to leave the school?" Black.
"Yes." Severus snapped his head towards Dumbledore.
"Albus, I can't just leave."
"I'm afraid you don't have much of a choice Severus. We'll have to send you into hiding and set the barrier around the area you'll stay in. I will get a substitute but only until this problem is dealt with."
"Where is he going to stay? He can't go back to Spinner's End it's full of muggles." Draco.
"What about Malfoy Manor?" Potter.
"No, Malfoy Manor's an old estate with multiple strong fields everywhere. It would take weeks to bring it all down not to mention my parents are on vacation so they can't help."
"That's true." Albus scratched his chin, then looked to Sirius. "I suppose he'll have to stay with you Sirius."
"WHAT?" Severus and Black shouted.
"Boys please, Sirius your family's home has been rebuilt and remodeled correct?"
"Yes." Black slowly nodded. "Albus I don't think this is a good idea."
"We don't have a choice Sirius, your home is the only acceptable place. I know you and Severus have gotten over most of your issues, but you'll have to put up with each other for a while."
"I gotta agree with this Sirius." Potter. "Snape's got nowhere else to go."
"I agree too, it's the best place." Lupin. "Sirius do you think you can offer Severus some shelter, you're gone most of the day anyway."
"Maybe, oh…" Black looked back at him. "I suppose I can if he's willing." Severus felt his heart stop, Black was agreeing to let him stay? He was going to offer protection?
"Severus?" everyone looked at him, and he just slumped his shoulders.
"I might as well, but Draco comes with me."
"What?" Draco looked at him oddly.
"Your parents trust me to keep an eye on you, if that vampire comes back no doubt he may use you to get me."
"But what about school?"
"He can stay in the school Severus, he will be guarded if you wish."
"No thanks." Draco looked back at him. "I can come see you on the weekends, just to check on you if that's any good?"
"That would be nice Mr. Malfoy, I'll arrange it."
"Looks like we'll be roommates then." Potter.
"Don't expect any special treatment." Severus groaned.
"Severus go pack your trunk, Mr. Malfoy will help you and we'll have you moved out tonight."
"I'll head home and get the guest room ready."
"I'll go too."
"Harry you will go back to your friends, you can see Sirius this weekend."
"But sir…"
"Do as he says Potter, Draco's not staying the night he will return as well." Sometimes the two boys were jealous of each other, but no one really understood why. "Come Draco." His godson followed him out of the headmaster's office and back to his own quarters where the window was mended. His trunk popped open and soon enough items were shrunk and placed inside.
"Sir, are you sure about this?"
"I don't have a choice Draco, I'm not about to become some vampire's toy so I have to put up with your cousin."
"I know, I'm just worried about you." Severus turned to him.
"Draco I know you care, but this is all I can do and it's all I'm best at. Hiding in the shadows until the right moment like a coward." He waved his wand but then felt Draco's hand grab his wrist.
"Don't, don't say that about yourself." Draco had a stern look on his face. "You're not a coward, everyone knows how brave you were. I repeat, you're not a coward. You just have to wait until this is taken cared of otherwise next time he could abduct you." Severus just sighed and Draco helped him pack the rest of his things.
'Unbelievable, not even a week after my stalker writes me those disgusting love notes and he's already out for me. I can't believe this…' soon enough everything in his room was packed into his trunk and it sealed shut, then shrunk and he put it in his robe pocket.
"Uncle Sev…" he turned to Draco. "If you need anything…please just let me know." Draco had gotten softer on him, and considering the circumstances he really couldn't complain. "Should I tell my parents what's going on?"
"No, don't ruin their vacation. You just focus on completing your last year, don't worry too much about me." Draco gave a small smile.
"Ok, well we'd better get back to the office." Severus nodded and left back out of the dungeons straight to the headmaster's office.
"Licorice Snap." The gargoyle moved and let them up the spiral staircase. Black was there with Potter and Albus, waiting by the fireplace.
"There you are, Sirius has the guest room set up for you Severus. Now for tonight get some sleep and we'll set the barrier up first thing in the morning." Albus turned to Black. "Sirius if you will." Black nodded not taking his eyes off Severus.
"Come on Snape, you can bring Malfoy along if you want. Dumbledore said he can stay the night as can Harry."
"As what babysitters?"
"Severus…" Albus gave a warning tone and Severus just sighed following Black to the fireplace and straight into the large den of Grimmauld Place. Soon enough Draco and Potter followed, and Black pointed to the stairs.
"First door on the right, has a hippogriff on the front. If you need anything just call Dobby, Speckle, or me." Dobby too had survived the war, and stayed at Sirius' home since poor Kreacher passed away just a month ago, but at least he died peacefully with his Master Regulus' locket in his hands. Speckle was a younger female house elf, given to Black by Kingsley from his home staff.
"Thanks."
"Draco can take the room next to it, Harry's is on the left across the hall. Mine is down here, just be down at eight for breakfast tomorrow morning."
"Alright." Severus nodded and he left upstairs to the room Black had told him of. Once he opened the door he took his trunk from his pocket, took the spell off it and set it at the foot of the four poster bed. The room had a good amount of furniture in it, but he didn't care since he brought some of his own.
"I'll be in the next room, goodnight Uncle Sev."
"Goodnight Draco." He would unpack in the morning, right now he just wanted to sleep and try to push those awful thoughts out of his head. Victor Vladislaus was after him, and he was powerless against a full-blooded vampire.
Salazar knew how this was going to work, but for now all he could do was accept the protection 'offered' by his old enemy Sirius Orion Black.
Hope you liked it, and please give plenty of reviews for me please?
I know Draco's a bit soft in this one, but only because after what just happened he kind of acts protective over his godfather. It would go the same way if Harry and Sirius were in this I'm sure. I'll kick off the other couples later, for now I'll just focus on SBxSS and a little of DMxHP.
Opinions please!
And tell me how you would like the first day to go for Snape and Black. I have an idea, but it helps to know what my viewers like.
R&R
Later!
