The Vampire Blood in the Snape Family

Whats going on? What happens when Severus learns that Harry really isn't the boy he thought he was, and that they have more in common then what they had thought before. NOT SLAH! I know it sounds like it could be, but it isn't.

Warnings: A warning that Amanda Snape (me!) will also be in the story. anyone who read Snape's Secret will know who she is. and there will be another Snape. And it is about Vampires. so if you don't like any Snape. Amanda (who I own) or Vampires. you get it?

Disclaimer: I don't own any Harry Potter person, nor do I own the word vampire (just my insane self had to put that in there) I don't own the work Slayer (in case it shows up) but I do own Amanda. and Malum in later chapters! And I know I must likely have stole the ideas of other fics so I'm sorry! Please read on.

~ Chapter 6 ~ ~ Can I call you. father? ~

Harry leaned on the wall. Snape thought he was his father?! No this couldn't be right! "Professor, may I see the letter my mum sent?" Severus nodded and handed it to him, the birth certificate still inside. Harry read the letter a few times then looked at the certificate, "So you're my father?"

As Harry said that the potion turned blue, "It would seem so." Severus said, and Harry passed out. "He took it well, I think." Severus said to aloud to himself as he caught Harry before he fell on the ground. He picked him up and carried him into the reading room and laid him on a couch. Severus walked across the room and sat at a desk, and started to write a letter, Dearest Amanda & Malum, I ask that you move up your trip and come stay at home a little earlier this year. I think I may Need your help to explain the vampire history to the newest member of our family. Please Come as soon as possible. Thank you. Your Brother Always, Severus

Severus finished the letter and tired it to an owl's leg who had been sitting on the desk, "Take this to Secret Gardens School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and give it to Professor Malum Snape, or to the Head Girl Amanda Snape." After saying this, the owl flew off out the window.

Harry opened his eyes and sat up he had the weirdest dream that Professor Snape had told him he was his father. He looked around the room (that was done in light browns and above the window had the words, "The Reading Room") and saw the older man sitting at a desk looking at him worriedly. "Feeling better Harry?" He asked trying to be fatherly like but not to much.

"So you're my father. what. I don't care it can't be. James Potter is my father!" Harry said sitting up thinking about running off.

Severus shook his head, "That is what I always thought Harry, I thought you were James' son and that is why I hatted you. I hated the fact that you weren't my son, and now I realize why I have done to you and it hurts me to think about it."

"How?" Harry asked, he had always thought his mum and dad. James he reminded himself hatted Snape. no my father. he had to remind himself again.

"It had been school policy but the Ministry of Magic for all vampires who wish to attend Hogwarts were to be placed into Slytherin with out even seeing the sorting hat." Harry's eyes widened at the Vampire part, "Let me finish this story." Severus told him then went back to the story, "I didn't want to be in Slytherin, so I studied. I spent all my time in the library, surrounded by books. That is where I became friends with Lily, James, Remus, and Sirius. We became friends, but we had to pretend to hate each other in public. In my third year Dumbledore had all the Vampire students come to his office, there was just two of us. He put the sorting hat on me head and something about me could confuse the sorting hat, I could tell it what to do and where to place me. William, the other vampire said he could do the same thing. So the tradition still stands if anyone vampire wishes to become a student they have to be put in Slytherin.

"In our sixth year Lily and I stared dating, and James who had a crush on her hated that idea and began to hate me. James and Sirius were always closer, and Remus and myself were closer then with the others. Lily was friends with everyone. You know half of the rest." Severus sighed, "Sirius knew James hatted me and wanted ma out of the picture for it to be Lily and James, not Lily and Severus. He lead me to the shack one night with a full moon he told me Remus was hurt so I foolishly sent to aid my friend. Only Remus wasn't hurt I would have been killed or turned into a vampire/werewolf, if James hadn't stopped me. After awhile Remus, James, and I were able to be friends but Sirius and I couldn't and still can stand each other."

Harry sat there watching the pain on his father's face as he told the story of how his friends betrayed him, and with the letter he had got from his mum. Well the letter he was allowed to read, he understood why Severus had hatted his fathe-James, and his godfather for so long.

Severus sat there and studied his son's face, he couldn't tell what he saw there, he needed to ask the boy something, "Harry, I'm not asking you to forgive me in one day, or to even go around by your real name, all that I ask is that you try to one day find it in your heart to forgive me." He sighed. To his surprise Harry nodded,

"I think I already have." He said still a little unsure. He didn't want to say something that would make Sna- his father mad at him. "Can I ask you two questions Sir?"

"Anything." Severus said leaning back into his chair.

"First, can you tell me about Vampires?" Harry asked, if he had heard right he was a Vampire, and he needed to know what was going on.

"Not till your Aunt and Uncle come." Severus said not even thinking about his muggle relatives.

"No! They can't come here." Harry put his knees up to his chest. his father was going to send him back to live with them.

Severus looked at him a little shocked then thinking about it he quickly added, "Not your muggle Aunt and Uncle, my little sister and brother."

Harry looked up a little embarrassed about that outburst. "Ohh I see, sorry."

"No need to be." Severus said then telling he was embarrassed he added, "What was you other question?"

"Ummm. what should I call you?" Harry asked him, he didn't know to keep calling him Professor or to call him father or dad or whatever.

"Whatever you wish." Severus told him, he wasn't going to tell the boy to call him father or dad, after all he just found out today.

"Can I call you." he started to say dad, but he couldn't bring himself to not yet anyway. "Father?" he said after all he needed to get used to calling him that.

Severus nodded, he didn't want Harry to change his mind so he decided against yelling, 'Yes, I'd love that!' he smiled and stood, Harry followed suit standing also, "You look tired go to bed." He said fatherly like.

Harry nodded noticing he was about 6' tall now, he father was still almost six inches taller then him. Harry walk out the room and up the stairs to his bedroom. After all he was a Snape so it was his. As he got up the stairs he turned around to see Severus behind him, "Sir. Father?"

Severus smiled and tapped his wand on Harry's door three times again and Harry J. Potter was replaced by Harry A. Snape. Harry smiled at his father who taking a leap patted him on the shoulder then walked back down the stairs.

As Harry got into bed he was surprised at how well this day had gone. And a crossed the house as Severus sat in his chair he was happy. he put down a book he had been writing in and if anyone were to read it they would see this written in the middle of a page filled with other names: Harry Alexander Snape, son of Severus A. Snape and Lily F. Potter
