Chapter four
Hermione shook her head a small smile gracing her lip, it seems like at least there is a decent person left in Slytherin that knows at least some manner, and not insult people all the times. She carefully made her way back to Ron as he was waving at her and probably would start calling her soon, something she doesn't want. After all she loves the school library and would be pissed of if she's kicked out. Most her information is in this very room.
"Mione, can I see your potion note?" Ron pleads trying to pull of the puppy eye, which turn out to look like he's sucking on a lemon drop.
Hermione glared at him "what about your note? I saw you copying them down." Ron looks down and pulled out a parchment that look like it was written by 7 years-old. "I can't believe how you still can write this sloppy Ron? You wrote it like a 7 years-old kid." Hermione snap shaking her head, pulling out her own sheets which look like it was typed out of the computer.
Ron kissed her on the cheeks, "Thank, Herm you're a life saver." Ron grinned at his girlfriend.
"Ron, sometime I think that you start dating me because of my brain." Hermione sighed with the air of seriousness' surrounding her. Hermione watches as Ron fidget a bit.
"It's not right?" Hermione look at him, "I heard someone talking about you and Lavender." Hermione continue not letting up.
"That's just rumor 'Mione. Like when they said that Harry is the Heir of Slytherin." Ron said desperately.
Hermione gave a dark laugh, "Ron, everyone was scared, the Chamber was open… Why would you bring that up?" Hermione frown at the red head "Just don't let me catch you. If I do I won't think twice about what I will do." Ron gulp at the threat, as anyone have ever been threat by Hermione it always come true—well most of the time anyway. He only manages to nod his head.
"Good now, have you finish your homework?" Hermione question, looking over to make sure the ink was dry before rolling it up. Ron was relief that the girl finally change the subject, knowing that it's never easy to change a subject on her.
"Hey, what's up with you Ron? You look like Herm just finishes threatening you." Harry commented sitting down with a book.
"You have no idea." Ron whisper to him keeping his eye on the bushy hair girl for incase she hear what he said. Harry snorted shaking his head; flipping through the page, "About Lavender right?" not bothering to look up at the older boy but he can tell that he hit the right spot.
"What book is—um…I gotta go." said the red head Gryffindor gathering up his stuff and wrinkling Hermione's note and also took her homework in his rush, "Hey!" she protest grabbing for note and homework from him which he wouldn't let go "Let go Ron you're messing it up, it's going to rip." Hermione snap trying to pry the hand of but Ron just run off with it and dropping his book on his way. Harry wonder how the paper didn't rip at the two's tug of war.
Hermione frowned whenever the red head took her paper earlier then his usual rush to get it done at the last minute. "I'll see you later Harry, I need to get my Homework and note back from that idiot." Hermione huff quickly and carefully put her things back in her bag. Harry watches her go chasing after Ron. Harry sighs closing his book, looking after the form of Hermione disappearing out of the room. He hopes that Lavender won't do anything stupid and ruined Hermione's relationship with Ron. He won't be able to stand it, and adding the stress with his long lost brother.
Harry decide that he too show go and rest, and should forget everything else for the rest of the days.
Blaise watch as the last of the trio left, "Don't worry, you find out soon Harry…" whisper the Dark haired Slytherin.
Turning back to his works; not paying attention to the eye that was trying to pierce through him. "Malfoy get out here." Said the younger of the two Slytherin.
"Curious are you?" he ask with a smirk on his face, Malfoy glared at him for the smirk.
"Tell me Zabini and I won't tell anyone."
"That won't work on me Malfoy. You think that I don't know what you're on about? I'm not a Slytherin for nothing. I know how you think." Blaise said leaving with his bag and ignore the book that was lying on the table still open. Blaise ignore the scolding of the librarian and walk out.
--
Snape walk into his quarter, and the pensieve, he quickly drop his head into the silver swirling of the bowl.
Severus appeared into the very room where he last look at his lover, the last time they spent time together and actually enjoyed it.
"Sev." Call the dark hair man under him, "hm?" was the only answer that was head.
"I think that we should break this off." the blue eye man said .
"wha…?" Severus asks snaping his head away from his lover's chest.
"Lily's depressed; I have to support her through her time of need." Explain the man with a sadden expression. Severus snap jerking away completely, the man tried to comfort him by following him.
"Why now? Why?" Severus demand suddenly fell very naked, he grabbed his clothes, to which James grab his arm, "we have to talk this through, to cut if off cleanly." James said sadly looking at the man he loved more then anything trying to get away from his touch.
Severus jerked his hand of and put his clothes on silently then turned around, "Then why did you told me to continue this shit with you, when you told me you're marrying my best friend?" Severus snarled, "We could've broke it of then but you insist on continuing it, not considering my protest!" Severus look angrily at the Potter Lord, "you shouldn't have lied to me you…you…should've turn accept what I said then and leave me alone. But you have to be like that mutt and persist." Severus push the still nude James away from him, as James said nothing.
Severus took a very long breath and let it out, "Fine, you want it to end then let's end it. I don't want any contact with you, or Lily. Let's make this so that we won't ever have to see each other or talk ever again. I don't want to be hurt by you and I don't want Lily to be hurt so let's cut off all contact." Severus said turning away from James and make his way out. To hurt to even looking back at the man who successful hurt him more then ever.
The Memory shift to another; the memory Severus was working in his lab when he felt the urge to vomit again for the tenth time that afternoon. He quickly left the room and went to the closest bathroom and empty the nonexistence of what ever that was suppose to be in his stomach. It has been two month since he last saw a potter.
He decided that he have had enough and went to his store of potion and grab a black potion was in the back of the shelf.
Severus pulls out a piece of parchment and a needle. Severus pricks his finger and quickly opens the bottle of potion and let exactly a drop of his blood drop into the bottle.
Severus then cork the bottle, shake it twice then uncork and pour the substance onto the parchment. To his confusion the potion came up with nothing. He look at the bottle, it was suppose to tell him what sort of virus he have, but the solution nada.
He then pull another bottle of the shelf, milky white this time and drop another drop into the bottle, and quickly heal his finger and close the bottle, he shook it for a minute then let it settle down. He hope that this potion would give him the answer It was should tell him what is going on in his body unlike the other which was suppose to tell him if his was sick but it said no; which confuses him as he was puking and the freaking potion said he's fine.
He look at the then check the time, he's been thinking for a five minute now and another five left before he can get the solution. Severus count down the minutes then, he uncork the bottle and poured the now red substance onto a new parchment, he waits another minute then writing appear on it. Severus read the writing and fainted, good thing that his house-elf decide to inform him that lunch is ready, and caught him before he hit the ground.
"Master, sir." the elf worriedly called. Then it looks at the parchment and sighed, she had know since her master had conceived it but said nothing as he didn't indicate any sign that he knew, so she kept her mouth shut.
The memory once again change Severus this time was walking through Diagon Ally.
Severus walk toward Gringotts to change some document when he was attack from nowhere into a dark ally between Flourish and Blotts and Ollivander's. "What the fuc--" Before Severus could finish his sentence his mouth was attack by his attacker, Severus brought up his wand and point it under the man's chin, "I don't thin--Potter!" Severus snaps looking at the man on top of him.
James push the wand away and hug a shock Severus, "I'm sorry Sev. I shouldn't have said what I did. Forgave me? I really missed you. I couldn't help but attack you when I saw you walking." Said James, Severus quickly push him away and stand up, "I don't know what you're thinking Potter, but don't ever touch me again." Severus roughly pushes the younger man off him.
"You were the one who left me. You were the one who broke of everything that we have. Don't you dare say that you're sorry and that you didn't mean anything that you said? Don't think for a second that I'd believe you." Severus said getting up. James quickly got up and block the way out of the Ally. "You go to hear me out Sev." Tried the blue eye man.
"Move Potter." Severus snap spotting Lily, watching them curiously, "There's nothing you need to apologize for everything is done and over with." He said carefully, trying to make Lily think that they're talking about their school year.
"Go back to your wife and stay out of my life." Pushing James aside and walk away from him and Lily. . Not bothering to tell him about the child.
"Wait! I'm not--" James stops when he spotted Lily looking at him with a smile.
"Sverus not bothering to stop he continue his way to Gringotts, but he was attack once again, and this time it wasn't James, it was a death Eater. His eye widen, then the man start casting a dark spell, which Severus recognize, and fought back when his partner enter and held onto his hand to stop Severus from his attempt to attack.
"NO!" Severus screamed as the spell was completed and he was knocked out.
The memory changed once again; Severus woke up in the bed of the so familiar Hospital wing of Hogwart.
He was confused then he remembers the event and cried his heart out. They took what gave him the heart to move on, his child. And they'll pay for it. For even thinking of hurting him, and forcing him to live his life alone again. He was so happy at the thought of having a child and they ruined it.
Then the Headmaster walked in "What trouble you Severus?" he ask looking like a grandfather. Severus just look at the man, not knowing if he should trust the man with his secret then he decide that since it was the death Eater that took his child away then he would turn to their enemy the light side.
"They…" Severus pause to stop himself from sobbing again, "they took my child…"Severus murmur softly that Dumbledore almost couldn't hear.
"What are you going to do about it?" Dumbledore ask sorrowly, he two know how it must've felt to lose a child, or in his case both a child and a dearly loved baby sister.
"I'll make sure they all pay." Severus said Darkly, "I'll kill them myself." Dumbledore's ear perked up, "Severus, why don't you join the light side, we'll help you to avenge for death." Dumbledore said happily thinking that they could just change former dfeath Eater to the light side.
"No! I won't be a light soldier; I'll become your spy. But nothing else."
The memory ended and Show another.
The memory Severus snape just moved into the new room, and had told the dark lord that he just gottan a job in Hogwart and plan on spying from the inside and gave him information. He was surprised to see that the Dark Lord actually prised him on his 'way of thinking' as he put it.
Severus then took out his personal Pensieve and watches the memory then came back out of the memory and start looking and flipping through one of his dark art book. And read out loud when he reach the appropriate spell.
"Parvulus Eximo, this spell removed the child from a person and either kills the child or gave it to another person to raise it depending on the caster. Caution: this spell only works if the victims(s) are against it and know nothing of it, and the person that the child will be put in have no idea that the child was planted in him/her." Severus read out loud to himself, angry and happy at the same time, his child is alive but is born as another's child and is the biological child but not actually the biological child at the same time for the couple. He continue to read the rest "The normal familiar potion would not work as the spell is highly advance and thus no potion that was created so far have worked. This is the reason why the spell was marked Dark as it took the child away from his/her actual family, and no spell or potion can tell a person if the child is alive or not. and for the person or group who kill the child, that person or group would most likely find their child or children dead in less then a week if already been among the walking and those that are newly born would be dead in less then a week. The result for being found out about the usage of this spell will be spent in Azkaban for the rest of his or her life, and would be forced to take the truth serum, to get the information out on who the who was planted into. This case only happened thrice in the past six century." Severus gives a little smile mix with a smirked before closing the book. Vowing to himself that he would find his child no matter what even if it take him years, and his skill in potion is unrivaled at the current century for those that are alive that is, he is certain that he would be the one to solve this puzzle and get his son back, he was sure of this, and he's very sure that the child was and is a boy.
Severus exits the world of memory into the real world and thinks. It have been 16 years and still he have not make the proper function, those that he made before only reveal the wrong information that he needed. Those potions only revealed the birth parent and the date, time, and place, it didn't tell the other family member. All losing one or another fact that he need.
Exiting his room he went straight to his lab which was connected to the potion class room, not bothering to close the connecting door.
--
Harry decided that he need some help from his potion professor or just be there for the man to deduct point from him and annoyed the man, and maybe get a detention.
Harry walked around the corner seeing no one he quietly as possible walk down the corridor and enter the class room which was unlock for the first time surprising the green eye boy. Harry hurriedly open and close the door and went to the connecting door that the man specifically told the class not to enter. Curious as Harry is he enter the room, surprised that it was not look, and considering that the man had told the class or him especially not to even think of touching the door, he should've guarded the door with spells and hex.
Harry made his way to the middle of the room that was filled with potion ingredient, discarded cauldron that have holes in them and the stenches of multiple ruined potion. In the middle there was a boiling cauldron full of shimmering blue liquid in it, Harry then spot a knife on the counter nearby and a parchment there. Reading through it Harry nicked his wrist with the knife that was sitting on the counter and counted ten drop of blood the quickly as he can removed his wrist and healing the small cut. He hoped that he helped the man and made his way back toward the class room. Thinking that he need to get out now that he add his blood to the potion the professor might be angry and would most likely deduct two unreasonably hundred point of and he don't need that now, they need to win the quidditch and house cup. Harry stop in his track, he went back to the potion and ladled some potion into the nearest bottle, corking it Harry put it in his bag after spelling a unbreakable spell on it, he made his way to the door as he was about to open it he heard, the door to the classroom open and close. Harry dodged behind the largest near by cauldron and wait, he paled as the man enter the room, thinking that he'll need to need to wait until the man exit again before get the hell out of there himself. He peeked over the edge to see the man walk into the room and forgot to close the door, he quickly follow the Potion master with his eye then quietly sneak out of the door. Just in time before the door was magic closed. Harry quietly opened and closed door, taking his time at that. He gave a sign of relief and jogged up to the Tower without looking back. Harry instantly stops midway, oh shit! The note! He had forgotten to stack them back to their original way, he can remember, he leaving the note on the counter but he didn't stack it, he hope the professor didn't suspect him.
--
Severus turns back around and spelled the door close continuing to walk to his potion. Severus frown the smell is different the last time that he was here which was less the three hours ago. The potion master look at his note and frown more the not was neatly stack when he left but now it was stack messily. Then he look at the knife, his eye widen at the blood that was covering the blade. He grit his teeth, some one have been in this very room, and by the look of the blood it was really recently as the blood was still warm and wet. He concludes that he student just left before he enters. He was going to use his blood for testing the potion like he did every other time but it seems as he gotten himself a willing guinea pig. He smirk no matter if the person did get away he'll know anyway, the blood will give him the name at the very least. He then clean the blade and decided to add his blood as if the student that put his blood in could be his child, after all by now his son would be the same age as the sixth years. He carefully stirs the cauldron counterclockwise, then clockwise for the next five minutes before letting it simmered.
The potion master caste a cleaning spell that would automatically send any dirt or anything that are not needed for this potion away from it is it won't be contaminated. Then he left the room to let the potion simmer and get him the answer. He left the room as the potion needs to be simmered for at least a month for the entire potion to be evaporated. He then made his way to his quarter and wait for dinner to start. Exiting the room Severus saw a bottle on his desk and frown until he reached it and realize that it was a bottled of the potion that he was brewing on the other room. He then grabs it and quickly enters the other room and pours the potent back in knowing that it won't hurt the potion.
--
Harry who had made it to the Gryffindor tower decided that he should return the potion as he don't know what the potion does anyway, and snuck down to the dungeon again putting the potion on the desk of his professor and crush, he wrote a quick note and left the room he hid in the alcove near the class room knowing that the man was still in there.
Harry waited till the potion professor exit the room and turned around the corridor, but waited for five minutes before following to make sure that he won't be caught.
--
Hermione have followed the red hair boy until she lost him on the second floor. It took Hermione 10 minutes to realize that Ron might be in the abandon bathroom. Walking toward the room Hermione opened the door to the bathroom to find Ron moaning. Hermione chocked back a sob looking to the girl she knew who it was. In anger she cast a sticking charm on them and a special spell on the gingery haired boy as Ron was about to cum. Hermione left the room after summoning her homework and note. Hermione write a quick note to them.
Hermione left the bathroom in tears and cursing at the two people who she called friend.
--
Ron frowned, something was not right he tried to pull away but he seems to be stuck. Getting tired the girl try to push the lean boy off her but to no effect. He looks down to the girl in horror, who also look at him the same way. They both look down to where they were connected and pull away from each other. Nothing happened they were stuck. The girl was smart enough to cast a spell to dress them up but they were still stuck. Ron franticly looks around trying to see who played this trick on them. It was one of the spell the twin made so that the two people who was connected together would stay connected together for two whole hours. To their bad luck McGonagall decided to check in on that particular bathroom and found them like that causing her to faint, and woke up ten minutes later scolding and lecturing them about decent behavior and action before leaving and not bothering to help them out, saying that as punishment they will have to figure a way out for themselves and deduct fifty point from each of them. When the two hours was up, the girl left ahead letting Ron stay in the bathroom to take care if his problem. Ron's erection was still there and he doesn't know how to get rid of it. Ron groaned and was about to kick his bag to the other side if the room, when he heard moaning Myrtle giggled. Ron groan great a ghost saw him having sex or was watching him having sex. "The girl was crying you know." said Myrtle.
"No she wasn't." Ron argues he hasn't seen his secret girlfriend cry.
"Yes, she did, the half cat girl. She was crying and cast two spell before leaving." Myrtle dived into her toilet. Ron frown, cat girl? Who the heck is… his eye widen, face paled, two spell… ron groan great! He has to be caught by the girl and now he's stuck with a visible erection. Can his day get any worsen? He question himself grabbing his bag he was about to walk off when a piece of paper glide down in front of his foot. He grab it and read it, paling he drop it and ran off.
The note that was drifting onto the floor read,
This is only the beginning Ronald! Consider us over and down with! Stay with your…your bitch.
--
Hermione cried walking into the common room looking around and walked over to her one and only true friend.
Harry was startled to see Hermione crying and throwing herself onto him. Harry hug her back and pat her back to comfort and sooth her. The whole common room turned to watch as their Gryffindor seeker comfort his female friend and pay very close attention.
"What's wrong Mia?" Harry asks when the sobbing stop and only sniffling was heard.
"Oh Harry!" Hermione wailed her sobbing starts again, "He…he cheated on me." Sob the girl through the hiccup that she now posses.
'Are you sure?" Harry ask, thinking on why Ron would chose lavender over Hermione, yes he knows, he saw them too, but did nothing hoping that the older boy would come to his sense.
"I caught them ha-having sex—in—in Myrtle's bathroom." Hermione said hugging Harry tighter.
"Oh Hermione." Harry said sadly hugging his friend back. "Did you do anything to them?" Harry ask knowing that more then likely that the girl would cast a few spell on them. "Two." Was all she said chocking on her sobs. The room was surprise Ron cheating on his girlfriend.
"Who did you saw him with?" Harry question worried of who it was.
Hermione just sob and said nothing to the emerald eye boy. It was like that for nearly two hour's before she answered.
The Lavender enters the room; Hermione got up and double slap the girl in the face. The entire room gasps, except for Harry who was not surprised.
