CHAPTER 7: The Truth?

Anna found herself to be in a black room , standing on a platform with only chains restaining her. Her heart pounded rapidly as she looked into two red eyes before her.

Voldemort looked at her emotionless, " so you plan to go back to Hogwarts as a hero, eh?" He wheezed. Anna just raised an eyebrow, ' what's he playing at?' She thought.

" You think by going back you and your friends will be safe." He asked a sick smile creeping onto his face. Anna kept her cool demeanor but on the inside was getting confused.

" Poor little Anna." Voldemort started with fake sympathy. " You think that if you go back you'll protect them." He paused and made his way toward her.

" You will never escape me Anna, if you go to Hogwarts all you'll be doing is endangering your little friends." He smirked.

" It's not as though Snape will help you, and you don't want those precious little brother and sister of yours to get hurt. Now would you?" Anna looked the other way, she seemed to have an internal battle.

' I don't want Hermione or Ron to be in danger and Tyler and Elizabeth are all I have left, they can't get hurt. Snape doesn't even want me. 'She thought.

' NO! HE'S TRYING TO TRICK YOU!' A second voice argued. Anna felt the dull pain in her head again, although she was to busy arguing with herself to know that Voldemort was listening to everything.

Just as the second voice was prevailing Voldemort cut in, " plus, you'll make it so much easier for me to get Harry. If you really want revenge for what he did to you, by all means go back to him." He said with a constipated smile.

Anna felt a burning in the back of her throat, ' especially him.' She thought.

" Join me." Voldemort hissed, leaning into her face.

Anna looked at him and spit in his face, " NEVER!" She screamed.

Voldemort wiped his face, disgusted. " Have it your way then." He sneered, " CRUCIO!"

Anna snapped her eyes open to find the familiar blinding white light of the hospital wing, as the early mornig sun shined its bright rays throught the window. She put a shaking hand onto her forhead and wiped the sweat away. She carefully sat up and removed her legs from under the tangled, prespired, sheets and noticed a slumped figure across from her.

Anna looked at it with a raised eyebrow as she heard a strange sound coming deep from it. She leaned in further and discovered that it was a man, sleeping in a very akward position. His long, greasy hair shielding his face from the sun, she heard the sound again, and discovered that it was his snore.She slowly reached out her hand and gently pushed back his hair to see his face.

' Severus Snape, father.' She repeated in her head.

She had gazed at his face so many times in the photo album. Anna had looked at it so many times she learned the names of her family and friends. She felt so wierd looking at herself with her arms around them, it was as though she was looking at someone else's life. Although there was a small feeling of peace as when she saw thier smiling faces, and her's.

As Anna became engrossed in her thoughts, she didn't realize that Snape had woken up and moved his way to her side, standing with a stiff posture and passive face.

"Oh!" Anna jumped as she snapped out of her thoughts and found the man looming over her. She looked up at his impassive face, but saw the emotion in his eyes.

" Hi." She said quietly pushing her thick brown hair off of her sweaty neck. He gave her a curt nod, and in not knowing what to do, stuck out his hand.

" Snape, Severus Snape, your father." He said formally, Anna looked at it amused and slowly shook it.

" So formal." She joked with a small laugh and a smirk. Snape, in response, gave a smirk and looked at her with a knowing expression.

" What?" Anna asked as her laugh subsided, and saw his smirk.

" The first time I introduced myself to you, you said the same thing." He said his smirk growing wider, Anna then let out a small laugh.

" Are you alright?" Snape asked looking at Anna's disheavled apperance. The smile slowly melted off of Anna's face.

" Just a bad dream," she sighed, " or should I say memory." She corrected. Snape felt sympathetic for her even though his expression did not show it.

" Well, I must take my leave so you can freashen up." He declared, Anna watched as he strode over to the doors and dissapear through them. Anna sat there in silence at his sudden exit, she wanted to ask him so many things.

" I think it's time we changed your bandage, and take a nice bath." Declared Madam Pomfrey coming out of her office.

She was looking over Anna's apperance. Anna sighed as she grabbed her shorts beside her. She slipped them on and lifted her gown, so it showed her stomach, she knew the procedure.

After having her bandages changed, taking her potions, she finally was able to take a relaxing, soothing bath. Then after getting dressed Anna sat down in the chair by her bedside and flipped open the photo album. She grabbed her brush and ran it through her hair as she gazed at her and Harry.

' He's hot.' She thought to herself with a smile, she felt a bit of pride as she looked at the couple. She just wondered if she will feel that comfortable with him again. Or even he still liked her, she was gone a whole year after all.

' What happened when I was gone anyways?' She thought and looked around for Madam Pomfrey.

" Madam Pomfrey, can you get me something?" Anna asked she spotted her by the potions cabinet. Madam Pomfrey abandoned her task and made her way over to the young girl.

" Depends what it is." Madam Pomfrey said reasonably.

" Can you get me a newspaper please." Anna asked.

" Why do you need one?" Madam Pomfrey asked, confused. All that's ever in there these days are news about attacks and the occasional gossip article.

" I would like to know what's been happening since I've been gone." Anna replied logically.

Madam Pomfrey nodded and grabbed a folded up piece of paper on her desk. She turned towards Anna, and hesitantly handed her the parchment. As Anna took it Madam Pomfrey held her gaze for a minute, with a look of...sympathy?

Anna unfolded the paper curious as to what it contains to cause Madam Pomfrey to look at her like that. Anna gasped as she saw the front page to see her picture pasted on it. Her eyes widen as she scaned the article, written by a woman named Rita Skeeter.

DAILY PROPHET

ANNA SNAPE HAS BEEN FOUND!

Anna Marie Snape has been found! It was reported that Anna was in a joke shop when she ran out hysterically, and ran out of site. She was reportedly found in Diagon Ally, beaten and unconcious, by none other than her father Severus Snape.

Anna has been missing for almost a year when she was captured by You-Know-Who and his followers, also known as DeathEaters, the night of her 15th birthday! This was a tragic blow to her friends and family, also to a certain green eyed boy that is certain to save the wizarding world.

That's right! I'm talking about Harry Potter, himself. They were the happy young couple of Hogwarts! Or so everyone thought, a reliable source at Hogwarts, has told me that Harry Potter was seeing Hermione Granger, (the fiesty bookworm that you may remember from last year), and Ginevera Weasly while they were together!

Ginevera Weasly (commonly known as Ginny) and Harry did have a past together, Intereasting. She is the youngest child and only sister of Ronald Weasly. Who just happens to be Harry Potter's best mate. Although he is now in a relationship with Miss Granger herself.

One girl may be not enough for the famous Harry Potter. The young Slytherins, who have kindly presented this information to me, have also reported that on the night of Anna's party, they ended the relationship. It was said that Anna found Ginny kissing Harry and he openly told her about his relationships. She then ran out crying as she was soon met with DeathEaters.

Although Harry Potter did seem upset, I suppose he was tired of waiting. He soon decided not have a relationship with Granger or Miss Weasly, as a beautiful, older, Ravenclaw has caught his attention. Her name is Cho Chang, who was the girlfriend of Cedric Diggory. They are now dating, and it seems as though it's going to stay that way.

As Anna is fighting for her life, her love seems to be having a wonderful time with his new fancy. Let's hope that young Anna may recover from her wounds and broken heart.

' Is this how it happened?' Anna thought, as a tear splashed the photo of Cho and Harry.
