A/N: I made a mistake with Sev's age. Instead of 42, he's 52. Thx.
Chapter Three
Severus was on the floor bloody and unconscious and Nathen was curled up in a ball in a corner.
"Mommy!" he cried running up to her. He ran into her arms and she embraced him tightly. He had a few cuts, but not as bad as Severus'.
"Thank Merlin you're alright. Alexander, you're in charge while I go get people from Hogwarts to help your father and your brother."
She took a handful of Floo Powder and disappeared in a flash of green.
Serena took Nathen, who was sobbing, in her arms as Alexander walked up to Severus.
"Nathen, what happened?" Alexander asked taking his father's hand in his.
"D-daddy and me were talking and something hurt him, then me. We didn't see what it was, but dad threw me in the corner and fought the thing."
*******
Meanwhile, Vitalani was running down to Hogwarts looking for Albus Dumbledore. He was walking down the halls when she found him.
"Albus, you have to help me. Severus and my son were attacked and I need a lot of help!"
*******
"Is daddy alright?" Nathen asked still in Serena's arms watching Alexander examine their father.
"I don't think so, his pulse is pretty low."
Albus then flew from the fireplace into the room, followed by Minerva McGonagall Poppy Pomfrey, Vitalani and Remus Lupin.
"Oh no," Minerva gasped at the sight of Severus. Poppy rushed up to Nathen and checked his cuts. Nathen looked more scared then ever.
"Don't worry Nathen, all of these people work with your father," Vitalani said smiling. Poppy smiled slightly, then rushed up to Severus who was lying between Albus and Remus. She examined him closely and shook her head.
"He's alive, isn't he?!" Vitalani shrieked.
"Yes, but is pulse is extremely low and he seems poisoned. We must..." she was cut off by Severus coughing up vomit. "Oh dear, get s bucket or something." Severus was vomiting and twitching like mad.
Vitalani came back with a garbage can and helped Poppy lean Severus over it. "Alexander, Serena and Nathen, use the Floo Powder to go to Hogsmeade Station, Hagrid will be waiting there. We'll meet you at Hogwarts."
They nodded and all disappeared in the fire.
"V-Vitalani," Severus choked before vomiting again.
"Yes love?" she said taking his hand in hers. Remus and Albus lifted him up causing him to vomit more. He fell unconscious again before he could answer her.
********
Severus awoke on a bed in the infirmary. He sat up weaker then ever and groaned. He was wearing his boxers and grey pyjama shirt.
"Ugh," he grunted. The curtain was drawn back and Poppy walked in with a potion in her hand.
"Hello Severus," she said smiling. Realizing his boxers were exposed, he threw the sheet around himself.
"What happened, where's my family?"
"You were attacked by something, so we brought you here. Vitalani, Alexander and Serena are at Diagon Alley and Nathen is with Albus. You, Professor Snape, need you medicine." Severus sighed and ungratefully downed the medicine.
"You should go see your son. He really loves you, and he was sobbing with worry when you were unconscious."
"Can I have my pants?"
"Very well." She left the curtains and in about five seconds was back with his slacks. He quickly slipped them on, along with socks and shoes, and got out of bed.
"Where might I find Nathen?" he asked running a hand through his greasy, black hair.
"Albus' office I believe. And see me in about an hour in a half for more medicine." Severus nodded and swept out of the room.
******
"Do you think daddy's alright uncle Albus?" Nathen asked staring at the ground.
"Of course he is. Would you like a caramel cockroach?" Albus offered holding a bowl of them in front of the small child.
Nathen made a face and replied: "No thank you." Albus chuckled.
"You're lust like your father, doesn't care for much for sweets."
There was a knock on the door.
"Come in," Albus called. Severus entered the room and smiled.
"DADDY!" Nathen exclaimed as he ran up to Severus. Severus picked his son up and laughed lightly.
"Hello, are you feeling better?"
"Yes dad, how about you?" Severus let out a small laugh.
"I'm feeling fine, weak, but fine."
Severus set him down and walked over to Albus.
"We had a little trouble at home," he said in no more than a whisper. "Nathen didn't want me to go to Hogwarts, and since we have no more children younger than five, maybe Vitalani could get a job here and Nathen could live with us."
"Why of course, Vitalani can be an extra-help professor," Albus said patting Severus' shoulder.
Vitalani, Serena and Alexander rushed into Albus' office.
"Severus!" Vitalani exclaimed.
"Dad!" Serena and Alexander said happily. Serena ran into his arms and hugged him tightly followed by a handshake from Alexander.
"Yes, yes," Severus said smiling. "Alexander, give these two a tour or something, I need to talk to Albus and your mother."
