Time Twist

by raspberryhp

What if Severus Snape had a twin sister who joins Hogwarts in Severus' fifth year? What if Severus' arch nemesis falls for her? Nothing is what it seems with overprotective brothers, heartbreakers being heartbroken, a time malfunction in the distant future and a dark lord on the rise. Friendships are broken and alliances are formed. AU. R and R. Constructive Critism appreciated.

4. Chapter 4

She had never run faster in her entire life. Somebody knew her secret.
Reading the instructions on the piece of parchment she quickly made her way to the seventh floor and burst into the Room of Requirement. With a flick of her wrist, her wand jumped into her hand and was aimed at the three cloaked people in the center of the small room. Said people were having tea in the middle of the room calmly and didn't seem to notice her.
Using that to her advantage, Ivy slipped into a shadowy alcove and used her time to observe her surroundings. The room was an odd mix of modern muggle technology and tastefully decorated victorian furniture. In the center of the room was a wooden coffee table sourrounded by a sofa set. Halfway through the room there was a movie projector facing the blank left wall. On the far right there was a rosewood desk with multiple muggle devices...that haven't even been invented... There was something really...off...about the whole setup. The rest of the walls were covered with various books from all sorts of subjects ranging from Healing to Geometry.
Sensing the back of her neck prickling Ivy turned sharply and found a fourth figure in the alcove with her. With a raspy voice it began,"Hello Ivy..Long time no see." Taking several steps backwards in succession she tried to fathom who this was.
Unable to recognise the voice she began,"I'm sorry but who are you?" With a flick of a hand, the hood and the voice glamour charm dropped leaving Ivy staring into a familar face. Sinking into the sofa behind her, Ivy mentally prepared herself for a very long morning.

When Ivy got out of the Room of Requirement, it was early evening. Her body was running on autopilot as she strolled to the Great Hall for dinner.
The four figures who she had just met with were instrumental in her life. They were the ones who convinced her that she needed magical education at Hogwarts. They were the ones to inform her about how an outcasted, lonely Slytherin (her brother) was treated at school. They were the ones who asked-no,pleaded with Ivy that she needed to change things based on the information they had given her tonight.
At first she had been a little dubious but seeing firsthand how the Gryffindors had treated the Slytherins and likewise, on the Hogwarts Express she had vowed to change it however she could.
