The Summary: .......
The Rising
I walked out of that office, feeling as if I had been punched in the guts. I felt dizzy.
"Hey" Jay cried out, realizing I had came out, "Y-You weren't expelled" Jay chuckled nervously.
I forced a smile, ignoring my headache, "Of course not"
Jay, looked expectantly, "Then......?"
"Oh, er- he scolded me, you know, said I should act better" I lied, wishing Jay would stop looking at me like that.
"It must've been Snape!" Jay exclaimed bitterly.
I lamely nodded. Hermione, the prefect walked towards us.
"Must've been" I mumbled, glancing at Hermione.
"Well about S.P.E.W-" Hermione started (Jay coughed, which strangely sounded like: Let's run)
"There you are Hermione!" a loud voice boomed through the corridors.
We all wheeled about, Hermione looking worried, "Ron! What are you doing here? We have something called a curfew you know, it is ten o'clock!"
A gangly tall red-haired fifth-year walked towards us, along with a skinny companion.
"Since when were you so worried about rule-breaking?" Ron grinned.
"Since I became a prefect" Hermione snapped, Jay gasped.
"Are you Harry Potter?" Jay whispered, I turned to look at the skinny black- haired boy trying hard to cover his scar.
"Ahem" Hermione interrupted, "Harry, Ron- This is James and Jay, both the new trouble makers (Jay beamed proudly)"
"Hi" I mumbled trying not to gape at Harry.
"Hello" Jay weakly smiled, "Name is Jay Sikem, this is James Black"
After exchanging plenty of "Hello's" and "Hi's", we awkwardly stared at each other.
"Well, well, well" a soft voice startled all of us.
Snape. I would've swore that he was stalking us or something.
"Professor Snape, I can explain-" Hermione declared.
"I did not ask you to talk Miss Granger-" Snape turned to me his eyes filled with hate, (Hermione blushed) "What would you Gryffindors be doing out here, especially past curfew (I looked amused at Ron and Jay who looked as if they could bite Snape's head off any moment)?"
Snape turned his hooked nose to Harry, his eyes also flashing, "Well, well, well Mister Potter?"
Harry fidgeted looking innocent as possible, his face red from anger. Somehow that struck me very funny.
"What is so funny Black?"
"Er-Nothing"
"So it seems that Mister Black and Mister Sikem has just joined your little rule-breaking fan club" Snape snarled at all of us. "Fifty points from each of you for wandering out in the corridors at night"
We all glared at him, knowing that if we talked back, Snape would gleefully take more points from Gryffindor.
Wishing Snape would leave, I hung my head.
"If you are caught by me once again in the near future I believe, I will make sure that you will be expelled (Snape's eyes focused on me)" Snape's eyes glittered strangely, as I sighed in relief, he was leaving.
But he didn't leave.
As you can see, the day that I had was not good so far......and adding Snape to this horrible day...... I don't know. It was not a really good thing. I could've felt a huge amount of frustration bubbling inside of me. All I could think was of how much I regretted coming here to Hogwarts. I should've listened to mum. But now all of them were dead. Dead. Something I could not understand. I guess the question of the day was:
Why won't Snape leave?!
"Do you love bothering us so!?" Jay dramatically cried out in frustration and in anger. (My face lit up, I felt like getting into a fight)
I don't know how to explain it but somehow Snape's face grew twice as ugly.
"Mister Sikem, if you do not want your detention to lengthen into two more months, then keep your abnormally enormous mouth moving....." Snape dangerously barked.
Harry, Ron, and Hermione gaped at the daring Jay, who looked especially like a dangerous poisonous snake tamer.
"Professor Snape, please, since you have already punished us, please do go away, YOU LOUSY GIT-" I (Trust me, I did not know what I was doing at the time) audibly shouted, I could feel the heat rising up from my face.
"You five will come with me to my office" Snape's voice grew twice as dangerous, soft and quiet.
I could feel all of them staring at me, my head was suddenly pounding. My mouth was dry, my throat.....did I have a throat? I could feel my vision spinning strangely.
"Mum? Dad? Charles?" I choked.
I fell.
***
My eyes flickered open. I could hear faint hushed voices quietly whispering.
"But Headmaster-"
"I tell you Severus, I assure you, he had no idea what he was saying. He is suffering under a tremendous amount of pain-"
"He........had....... no right" (I recognized Snape's voice right away, his voice shaking in anger)
"Severus" a sharp voice silenced him, "Do not make this.....personal, I want you, as a professor, to be there to comfort, not find fault in the boy"
Silence.
"Of course Headmaster" Snape's voice sounded again.
"It is five in the morning, you must have rest."
"It is hard, Headmaster, ever since- (Dumbledore sighed)" Snape continued, "He-He is waiting Headmaster, he is biding his time again......(I strained my ears to hear what Snape was saying)....wants revenge-"
"I know- (Dumbledore faintly whispered sounding tired) Go to bed Severus, you will need it"
I frowned in the dark. I must've been in the hospital wing. Their conversation was just outside the door.
I almost fell over when the door suddenly creaked open.
"P-Professor" I stuttered, as bright lights shined on my squinty eyes.
Albus Dumbledore did not look surprised, "James, you are awake"
"Y-Yes sir" I stammered, trying to get over the surprise.
"And-" Dumbledore delicately paused, just as the horrid Snape entered the scene. (Great I thought sarcastically)
"Black!" Snape snarled suddenly his coal eyes landing on me.
"Hi" I weakly grinned, knowing that Snape couldn't do anything once Dumbledore was here.
Snape was looking very uncomfortable himself, "I think I will go to bed Headmaster"
"Good night Severus" Dumbledore absently answered, taking a seat next to my bed.
Snape quickly strode out, his dark cloak swishing silently.
I looked back expectantly at Professor Dumbledore, feeling much better.
"I do see that your headache has disappeared" Dumbledore smiled (I hesitantly smiled too)
I nodded.
"Professor- I-I overheard your conversation with Professor Snape-" I admitted.
Dumbledore just continued smiling, his sapphire eyes twinkling with forgiveness, "That is quite alright, James"
"Thanks" I felt better, "Who was Snape- Professor Snape talking about"
Suddenly Dumbledores' eyes did not seem so warm anymore, "I think you know, James"
I froze. Hesitantly, "V-Voldemort?"
Dumbledore seemed delighted, "I also see that you are not afraid of Lord Voldemort's name"
I shrugged, "Many people in my- my old school weren't afraid"
Dumbledore nodded, "Yes- I know your old Headmaster well, Professor Bigglekey was it? (I nodded), yes very cheerful fellow, excellent professor, however, it seems as though age is getting the best of him (I frowned, funny the way Professor Dumbledore was saying that)"
"Professor, can-can I ask you a question?"
"It seems you already have" Dumbledore's smile was back.
"Oh?" I was confused, "Oh.." I mumbled when I finally figured it out.
"You may ask" Dumbledore said
"Erm, I know this is kind of a repetitive question but- Where will I stay, once the year is over?"
"With your biological father, I hope"
"WHAT?" I fell off the bed.
