Stephanie looked up in to Snape's eyes. Concern filled his eyes. "I know how you feel." Said Snape placing a comforting hand on her shoulder. Stephanie shrugged it off. "It's my fault. I know. You have a right to be mad at me. " Said Snape. Stephanie starred at him with kind and understanding eyes.

A voice in Snape's head said "Its O.K. I know you had no choice either. I don't blame you. I blame Him". "Did you just talk or what? Oh man. You communicate telepathic? I need to sit down." Said Snape plopping down in a chair next top Stephanie. Stephanie smiled. "Can you talk, but regular not telepathic?" Asked Snape. Stephanie looked down at the desk. The bell rang and Stephanie sprang from the classroom. Snape sighed as he picked up her forgotten books and followed Stephanie.



The late bell rang and Snape headed of for the Charms corridor when he heard a conversation in a classroom. Snape put his ear to the door and listened. "You have joined us. You must kill or be killed!" said a voice. "You can't kill her. I won't let you. She's my little sister. You'll. you'll have to kill me first!" That sounds like Draco Malfoy and huh Voldemort, thought Snape. "Fine. Avada Keradavera" said Voldemort. There was a flash of green light and soft thud and the whimper of a girl. Stephanie's in there too, thought Snape.

Then a familiar voice inside Snape's head said "Snape, help me! He killed Draco. He killed my brother!" "Stop crying stupid girl!" said Voldemort aggressively. There was a smack like the sound of skin hitting skin. Stephanie gave one last sniffle. Snape heard the voice in his head say "Snape, please. He's going to kill me."



Stephanie's POV

Voldemort starred at me cold and hard. I called for Snape again, but he didn't come. I knew he was outside the door listening. I looked over at my lifeless brother's body. I didn't think. I charged at Voldemort. I was mad at him. I punched him in the jaw, but soon regretted it.

He stumbled backwards a few steps clutching his jaw. His eyes filled with hatred. He pulled out his wand and yelled "Cruico!" An awful pain filled my body. I couldn't take it. I opened my mouth and screamed. It was the first noise I ever made using my voice box. Voldemort pulled his wand away ending the pain, but some pain still remained. I collapsed to the ground on my back shaking madly. I shut my eyes tight, but realized if I have my eyes opened or closed he's going to kill me, but if he kills me with my eyes closed he wins. I opened my eyes and saw Voldemort standing over me. I couldn't read the expression on his face and panicked. I really thought he was going to kill me.

I felt his shoe dig into my stomach. He put all his weight onto his left foot and that caused me more pain. He lifted his foot up. I turned over onto my side. I heard him laugh and it sent shivers up my spine. I laid on the floor. I don't know for how long, but when I looked back over at Voldemort, he had fled through the window. I crawled over to Draco's body. I clutched his left arm and cried.



Regular POV

Snape made up his mind. He sprinted, as fast as he could to Dumbledore's office, but when he got there Dumbledore was just about to get in when Snape replied "Sir, Professor Dumbledore, Stephanie - Draco -Voldemort - killed- crying - now Said Snape in between pants. "Yes yes," said Dumbledore running after Snape as he led him to the classroom.
