Back in time
Chapter 10-A letter
A/N: Sorry for the wait. Next time I try to write faster.
"What shall I do?" Dean asked helplessly.
"Maybe you should cut yourself into two," Lavender said thoughtfully. "Ever heard of the Poly Juice Potion? I would go to Umbridge and you could go to Snape."
"You're the best friend I ever had!" Dean exclaimed, hugging the girl. "The detention should be at 8o'clock, but Umrbidge changed it to before dinner."
"I'll kill you!" Lavender yelled as she ran after Dean. She did drink the Poly Juice Potion, but as it wore off the scars from the detention with Umbridge were still there.
"I didn't do anything!" the boy yelled.
"Then what the fuck is this? Scrambled egg? A perfect, soft skin? No! It's skin with scars on!"
"It was your idea!" Dean responded. "I didn't make you do it!"
Severus thought he could enjoy a dinner without any interruption. But, as usual, something did interrupt his meal. An owl. Mail form the Ministry. What the hell do they want? Severus thought as he opened the letter.
Dear Mr. S. Snape,
we've had a complain stating that you raped a fourteen year old girl and made two boys have sex with two of their friends. On the 25th March we would like you to come to the Ministry to a hearing. The girls and boys will be attending as well, like the person who complained.
Yours sincerely,
Amelia Bones
Molly, Severus thought. And Albus. I need to inform Ginevra and the others.
Slowly he got up and walked towards the Gryffindor-table.
"Mrs. Snape," he said. "Could you and your friends come to my office after you finished eating? I would like to discuss your attitude in your last lesson."
"But why should my friends come too?" the girl asked, looking up in her husband's face.
"Because their behavior is as insufferable as yours, Mrs. Snape," the Professor replied, walking away.
"Molly informed the Ministry," Severus said once Luna, who had com last, closed the door.
"Which means?" Harry wondered.
"On the 25th March we all need to go to a hearing," the Professor replied.
"But if we show them the memories," Ginny said, "then that should be enough evidence."
"There is only one problem."
"What?" Ron asked.
"I can't put the memories into a pensieve," Severus said.
"You can put any memory in a pensieve," Hermione said.
"Well, know-it-all, for your information, you can't," the man sneered. "Otherwise I would've done so a long time ago."
"Which memories?" Harry wondered.
"None of your business," Snape snapped and Ginny blushed, knowing which memories he meant.
"We should think about how we can make them believe in us," Fred said.
"I might know a way..." Luna said thoughtfully.
"Did you hear what happened to Dean?"
"No, Ron, I don't," Harry replied.
"Lavender hexed him into a goldfish," the Weasley boy laughed.
"Ronald, he nearly died!"Hermione snapped. "How can you think something like this is funny? If a Hufflepuff first year hadn't brought him to Madam Pomfrey, he would've died because fish can't breath if they're out of water!"
"But no one is able to redo the spell," Ginny said. "And that serves him right for what he did to me."
"But why would she do that?" Harry wondered.
"Dean had detention with both Snape and Umbridge," Parvati explained, joining the little group. "Lavender helped him by drinking Poly Juice Potion. She went to the detention with Umbridge. I don't know what she had to do, but somehow she got scars from it. And when the Poly Juice Potion wore off, the scars didn't go away."
"No," Harry whispered, shocked. "H-how dare she..." With that he ran out of the Gryffindor common room, leaving the others to stare at the spot he had just been standing at.
"What is gotten into him?" Ron finally asked.
"For this question I do not have an answer," Hermione said slowly, turning to look at her friends. "But it certainly means trouble."
