Even if it Breaks your Heart
Plot: After Snape's wife, Amelia, is killed by Death-Eaters as a message to Snape. Snape takes his daughter to the Potters, in hopes they will take her in. Sure enough they do, however events happen and Lily and James are killed. Severus takes his daughter to an old friend(Clint Barton) to be raised, still not wanting to risk his daughter's life even if Voldemort is supposedly gone. Now Snape's Daughter, Angelica Lillian, is being raised by none other than the Avengers, SHIELD, and Loki.
I played with the time-line... I'm sure you noticed. Also I'm going to try and not have a manipulative Dumbledore.
Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter or Avengers... although I do wish I did. :)
Thank you all so much for the Reviews, Favorites and Alerts! It really means a lot to me!
Also, I'm sorry if the things in other languages, as in those not in English(because English is my 1st language), are not correct. I am using Google Translate, so please forgive me.
Also I'm thinking I might do an eventual Angelica/Fred or Angelica/Draco. But don't worry neither will last long if I do... unless of course I really get a muse for either one. So far I'm thinking Fred/Angelica but I would love you're opinions! And it will only occur LATER in the Story, obviously not during her first year. :) However if the vote is for Draco/Angelica then I can make them start to have a secret friendship. The poll is on my Profile Page! Please vote! You have until I'm down with Angelica's first year to Vote! Thanks so Much!
Chapter 7
Angelica, Ron, and Harry went straight into the Girl's Bathroom, Angelica leading them towards it. They saw the Troll swing for a stall, knowing Hermione was in one of them when they heard her shriek. (Following the movie because too lazy to pull out my HP books :)) "HERMIONE MOVE!" Harry yelled as he rushed forward. Ron and Angelica froze in place for a second, looking at the Troll. Hermione was still shrieking when Angel, Harry, and Ron started throwing peices of the broken stalls at the Troll.
"HAY! PEA BRAIN!" Ron yelled as he threw another one. This time the Troll turned to look at them, but then looked back when Hermione was moving from under the rubble of the Stalls to under a sink. It swung the club before bringing down on wone of sinks, Hermione, moving just in time and shrieked calling out for help.
Harry pulled his wand, ran forward, grabbed hold of the club and let go, landing on the Troll's shoulders. He stuck his wand in its nose, and the Troll went nuts. It finally got Harry off of its shoulders but now held the The-Boy-Who-Lived upside down by his foot. "DO SOMETHING!" Harry called out, as he curled himself up as the Troll swung its club.
"What?" Ron and Angelica asked looking around for anything they could use.
"ANYTHING!" Harry called back. Then it clearly hit the two and they pulled their wands, "HURRY UP!" Harry called as he curled himself up from another swing.
"Swish and Flick!" Hermione called out, demonstrating with her hand on the movement.
"Wingardium Leviosa!" ron said using the swish and flick method then pointed it at the Troll's club just as it held it up to get ready to swing at Harry again. Ron effectively knocked the troll out using its own club. Harry pulled his wand from its nose and wiped off using his robes.
McGonagall, Snape, and Quirrel came rushing into the Bathroom then. "Oh! Oh my goodness!" McGonagall half sighed half spoke without breath. "Explain yourselves. The three of you of you!" McGonagall said pointing to Ron, Harry, and Angelica.
"Well...uh...umm..." Angelica, Harry, and Ron spoke at the same time. Severus seemed to look somewhat surprised at the three now speechless friends.
"It's my fault, Professor McGonagall." Hermione spoke up for the three struggling students. The three looked at each other with surprise.
"Miss Granger?" McGonagall asked, putting her hand on her chest again.
"I went looking for the troll. I read about them and thought I could handle it. But I was wrong. If Harry, Angelica, and Ron hadn't come and found me I'd probably be dead." Hermione said now looking at Angel, Harry, and Ron, before looking at McGonagall. Severus glanced at Harry and Angelica, who were too busy looking at Hermione to notice.
"Be that as it may... That was an extremely foolish thing to do I would have expected more rational behavior on your part, and I am very disappointed in you, Miss Granger." McGonagall scolded Hermione, who now looked at the floor. "Five points will be taken from Gryffindor for your serious lack of judgement. As for you three, I just hope you realize how fortunate you are not many first year students could take on a fully grown mountain troll and live to tell the tale. Five points will be awarded to each of you. For sheer dumb luck." McGonagall looked at the three Gryffindors. Angelica was looking over at Hermione, and smiled nicely to her.
"Good for you to get us out of trouble like that." Harry directed it at Hermione.
"Mind you we did save her life." Ron replied.
"Mind you she might not have needed saving if you hadn't insulted her." Angelica pointed out the obvious to Ron.
"What are friends for?" Ron asked looking at the two girls, Hermione smiled at this and so did Angelica.
"Did you see Snape?" Harry asked.
"Why?" Hermione and Angelica asked skeptically.
"He has a limp. the night we took out the troll I noticed he had a gash in his leg. Now he is limping. He had to have set the troll loose in Hogwarts." Harry whispered back to them.
"So?" Angelica asked, looking up from writing a letter to her family.
"He's after whatever is on the third floor." Harry replied.
"You don't know that, Harry." Hermione replied. Then looked at Angelica, "What are you writing?"
"A letter to my family. They made me promise to write to them once a week." Angelica grinned and signed the letter before saying, "I'm going to go and find my owl, Gus. See yous later." She then walked out of the Great Hall. And headed down a couple of corridors. She followed the corridors up to the owlery and went inside, in hopes of finding Gus there. Not seeing her Tawny Owl she huffed and headed towards the Gryffindor Common Rooms, of course she had been running and when she turned a corner, rather sharply she almost ran straight into the Headmaster. She immediately looked down, "Sorry, sir."
The Headmaster looked at her. "I've heard a lot about you, Miss Barton. But what are you from? Or rather to?"
"The Gryffindor Tower, sir." Angelica looked up at Dumbledore.
"Well, if you are running to Gryffindor Tower, what did you forget?" Dumbledore asked.
"Nothing, sir. I just need to find my owl to respond to my father's letter." Angelica looked at the Headmaster, who seemed to be studying her then he nodded and she moved around him only to hear him say something, that she would have missed had she not been listening.
"You don't know who you are." She froze somewhat before taking off again down the corridor, leaving the Headmaster in the hall.
Once at the Gryffindor Tower she quickly reread her letter:
Dear Everyone,
Is Dad home from the mission yet?
Harry, Ron, and I took on a fully grown Mountain Troll and McGonagall says that we had sheer luck! We also became friends with Hermione. The man I keep telling you guys about. Snape. Yeah well he seems to like reprimanding me like he is my dad or something. Honestly its really beginning to tick me off.
Hope everything is going good over with you guys. You will tell me when Dad gets home, right?
Anyway, Lots of Love,
Your Little Barton
She then found a quill and some ink and added:
P.S. When I ran into Dumbledore later and I was about to pass him I think he said to me: "You don't even know who you are." What does that mean? Is there something I don't know about?
She found Gus in her Dorm room and gave him the letter and let him fly off to deliver it.
New York City close to eight or so hours later (:)):
Loki was sitting in the Living Room, reading what Tony thought to be the Hunger Games... not a good book for an ex-villain, especially when said ex-villain seems to be enjoying the book. Pepper had Tony signing Papers, while Steve and Thor were attempting figure out how to play Wii Bowling, which Natasha had explained three times already while Bruce was jotting things down in a beaten up notebook. Tony was forced to take a break from the Search for Clint, and wasn't too happy about doing that.
Loki looked up first when he saw the familiar Owl fly in through the open Penthouse door. He took the letter and read through it then scowled. "What?" Natasha asked, looking at the Demi-God of Chaos.
"It appears that our Little Barton knows we are hiding something from her." Loki responded handing the Letter to Tony, who was basically threatening to snatch it from the Demi-God to read it himself.
"What do we reply?" Natasha asked, now completely not sure.
"You should tell her." Loki advised but the others disagreed, thinking that Clint should be the one to break the news not them.
"We need to reply to her. Why don't we tell her that her father has been captured and we are currently doing everything in our power to find him." Bruce suggested and so they all agreed that they would tell Angelica that instead of her being the Daughter to Severus Snape.
Several days later Angelica and Hermione were working on their Charms homework, while Ron and Harry played Wizards Chess, Ron winning for the third time in a row.
"I think we should visit Hagrid." Angelica spoke.
"What?" The other three asked together.
"Look Harry, you said the other day that when you and Hagrid went to Gringotts that Hagrid said that Gringotts is the safest place in the Wizarding World next to Hogwarts. Right? Hagrid picked up something for Dumbledore. Whatever is on that Third Floor, that the Three Headed dog is guarding, Hagrid would know." Angelica reasoned and the other three realized it as well. They instantly got up and started down towards Hagrid's Hut.
Well, don with this chapter! Hoped you all like it. I promise next chapter will be (hopefully) longer.
