Dreamwind put this up for adoption, so I'm going to try my hand at it. Let me know what you think.
Diclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter.
I do want to clear some things up, this story will probably end up as a threesome, I really can't see a half-snake Harry without Voldemort.
The counter for a stunner is Enervate, which just translates to wake up, I don't believe that a spell like that would be permanent. I also believe that a wizard's magic would instinctually fight off any spell placed on them given enough time and power barring the ones like Crucio and Avada Kadavra.
Keep in mind that while Harry might seem to be taking things a little too well, Snape isn't the only one that is being influenced by his instincts, and it may not last.
Poppy's POV
I had never been more amused in my life. It took every ounce of control that I possessed to keep the worried look on my face as I watched the man that was considered one of the greatest wizards alive come apart at the seams. He paced rapidly as he talked to himself, he probably had no idea that he was spilling his secrets as people always underestimated a healer's hearing. "This simply cannot be happening; all of my carefully laid plans are going up in smoke. If that portkey takes them to Voldemort before I have the chance to place that curse on the boy everything will be for naught, especially if they form a triad. Their combined powers would be more then enough to crush the Ministry. I need to find a way to get to the boy soon, hopefully the boy's hatred for the man that killed his parents will keep him from giving into his instincts to bond to the strongest male that offers. Perhaps I can use the boy's owl to transport a portkey."
Albus twirled around to face me and I made sure that I gave nothing away to his twinkling blue eyes. "It is truly horrible that Severus managed to leave the school with Harry but you mustn't fret, it wasn't your fault. I may have an idea on how to retrieve him so you must be ready to treat him just in case." He almost floated out of the Infirmary to carry out his new little plot, I wonder if he thinks that Tom is actually dumb enough to allow any foreign portkey to enter his property. Maybe the man truly is going senile.

Hedwig POV
I watched the smelly old man as he gleefully attached the letter to my leg despite the fact that I had already bitten him four times. "Now, make sure that you take this straight to your master so that he gets brought back here to be the little hero." He grabbed me rather roughly under the wings and flung me out of the window with very little fanfare, what a prick!
If he actually thought that I was going to force my Harry to come back to this hellhole he had another thing coming, my Harry deserves to live his own life. I flew in the general direction that he was in until I knew that I was out of that man's sight before landing on one of the tallest trees in the Forbidden Forest. It took very little effort to bite through the string that attached the letter to my leg; the man's hands were too weak with age to tie it properly. I watched with a strong sense of accomplishment as the letter fell to the ground and with a satisfied hoot I took off to join my Harry.

Snape's POV
I was disorientated when I awoke in a room that I did not recognize, the last thing that I remembered was Harry saying something and a fog covering my mind at the sound of his voice. I took stock of my surroundings and realized that I did know this room, and that was not a comforting thought. This is one of the guest rooms at the Dark Lord's manors. No sooner had I thought this then the door opened to reveal the Dark Lord's restored form in tailored robes with a self satisfied smirk on his face.
He entered the room and leaned against the mantle of the fireplace, which wasn't attached to the floo network. "Well Severus, I'm sure that you can understand my surprise when an old friend of mine showed up to ask me to provide sanctuary for yourself and young Mr. Potter, especially when Poppy told me about your little 'problem'." Poppy was the one that contacted the Dark Lord! "Now though Severus it seems that we have a small problem. You are now a Naga and seem to have chosen Harry as your mate even though you know what my plans for the young hero are. We have two options: you could cede your claim on him," I couldn't quite control the hisses that spewed forth at the very idea, "or we could come to some sort of understanding and share him."
I could practically feel the expression of shock that crossed my face; the Dark Lord did not share. "Normally I would not even consider sharing such a prize with anyone, but you have done much as one of my inner circle and the boy seems to trust you and you would be able to calm him and get him to be more agreeable to the union, I do not want to force the boy." He does have a heart, who knew? "The boy is in the next bedroom and a ward has been placed over his room to make very sure that you do not do anything that you won't live to regret, I may be willing to share but I will be first." He swept from the room with a swirl of his cloak.
I waited several moments after his departure to make very sure that he was not going to come back in before I made my way toward the door that likely attached my room to the boy's, hopefully I would be able to keep him calm though I did not have high hoped of that. The door swung inward without the slightest sound and I found myself memorized by the sprawled form draped across the bed. The light hit his scales in just the right way to make them glisten. I could feel my instincts trying to take me over before an outside power, most likely the wards, clamped down on them and left me with control of my mind and body. I moved slowly to the edge of the bed and placed my hand on his shoulder before giving him a slight shake that had him shooting out of the bed and halfway across the room before he realized who had awoken him and proceed to move back to the bed. "Are you alright Professor? Where are we? What's going on?"
I stopped his questions with a slight glare that had him blushing, hmmm. "I am fine. We are currently in one of the guest bedrooms in the Dark Lord's manor and now we have some things that must be discussed and I would like for you to remain silent while I inform you of our current situation."
I waited for the boy to nod before directing him to a seat in front of the fireplace before taking the one opposite him, it was difficult to sit properly but they both managed. "Several months ago I was able to restore the Dark Lord to his former body as well as restoring his sanity; this caused him to reevaluate his goals and the prophecy that sent him after your family." I could see that he wanted to interrupt but was he stayed his tongue. "He came to the conclusion that if he bonded to you the prophecy would be null and void due to a wording loop hole and changed his focus. He has moved from his previous irrational hatred of you and has developed a good deal of respect and desire for you that is only intensified by your current form." The boy was blushing from his head to his tail, it was an interesting effect. "He is not the only one with that goal in mind." The confusion was adorable. "I have long since overcome any unfounded animosity, I do realize that you are not your father and I have also realized that you are a very desirable young man and our current forms have taken the attraction that I was beginning to develop and magnified it. The Dark Lord saw through me with ease and has proposed that you should be bound to us both. I do know that this is a lot to take in but as the Dark Lord's consort you would be free to do anything you wished after the war within reason and the bond itself would give us all the power needed to win the war. I know that it is a lot to think about, so I will leave you to it." I knew it was more then a little cowardly to just drop that kind of thing on him and run away, but the urge to take him as my own was growing rapidly despite the ward's influence and I needed to get back into my room.

Harry's POV
I watched Snape leave the room with an almost numb feeling, his words still ringing in my head. Voldemort no longer wanted me dead, he wanted me to be his wife and so apparently did Snape. My mind wouldn't stop spinning, I just couldn't believe that the two men I thought hated me wanted something like that. To be perfectly honest I am not really all that against it.
I have always respected Snape, even when he out and out hated me and spent most of his time trying to make my life a living hell. He is the most talented Potion Masters of our time and one of the best duelers I have ever seen. It had started last year though, I had begun to notice that while Snape was not the most handsome of men, he was attractive in his own way and he had a voice that was made for sin, it soothed over the senses. It made it very difficult to sit through each class without giving myself away, but I never would have thought that I had a chance to be with him like that.
There is very little I could say about Voldemort. I could understand why he came after me that Halloween night; it was a war so his actions could not truly be considered evil. He was one of the most powerful men in the world, both in magic and in influence, he would be able to protect me and any children I would have, as would Snape. I also knew that the Wizarding World needed to change, it is slowly being overrun by the irrational fears of the muggleborn's that are coming into it without any knowledge about its inhabitants. All of the magical creature laws were created due to the fears that muggleborns had developed due to their own fairy tales and not the true nature of the creatures themselves. In fact, it was more then likely that if I hadn't ended up with Voldemort and Snape couldn't find a way to reverse the botched potion we would have been just as segregated as Remus without his ability to hide what he was, its hard to hide the fact that you're half snake. It would definitely be a hard decision, I couldn't take it lightly.
Review and let me know what you think.
