A/N: Okay I am thoroughly amazed. I posted the opening chapter and I got a review in less than 10 minutes. Sheesh!!! Well I decided to start chapter 2 so aren't you all pleased?! I'm sure you are if you've stuck with me this long through all of the horrendously long prequels. Oh and for the record I doubt that Lei will be in this fic so NO! She will not be finding out about Dumbledore being her father. I said that I would write another fic on that story plot but not yet because I can't write more than 1 at a time, I get confused so please be patient with me. So without any further adieu I give you chapter 2! ENJOY!!!!!!!!!!!

Chapter 2

Harry very quickly got accustomed to his new room. The whole room was decorated in greens and blues. His bed was bigger than the one that he had down in his father's rooms at Hogwarts. A stand was set to the left of the bed. The room itself was easily 5 if not 10 times as big as his room at the Dursleys. Harry supressed a shudder at the memory of his "family."

The room itself was furnished with a desk set to the right of the large, gaping window that opened out onto a small balcony with a wrought iron guard and a chair, lounge and small table set on it. A blue overstuffed couch in front of a roaring fireplace with a rich mahogany mantle. Three bookshelves were dispersed throughout the room only one of which held books. The other 2 held pictures and trinkets of Harry's.

The floor was a thick royal blue carpet. There was a large walk in closet that housed all of Harry's clothes and robes. To the right of the closet Harry discovered a bathroom with an absolutely enormous tub that had what looked like Jacuzzi jets in it. A separate shower was to the right of the tub. Harry spent the rest of the day wandering around the house and just getting his bearings and feel for it.

Draco was very happy with his room. Severus knew that Draco's favorite color was black and silver. So naturally the boy's room was decorated in those colors. The bed had silver sheets and comforter with black pillows. Draco's room was furnished and arranged exactly like Harry's. Draco copied Harry's idea and almost immediately took to wandering the garden.

Very soon it was dinnertime and Harry, Draco and Severus were gathered in the dining room. The room itself was beautiful. The walls were a deep cherry wood and the top borders had intricate carvings of vines and groups of fruit and leaves. The table matched the walls and could easily sit twenty people. There were two windows at the opposite end of the room.

Set between the two windows was a giant china cabinet filled with extremely fine china. There was a smaller stand next to the china cabinet that had a dozen bottles of wine displayed. There were candles mounted on the wall in sconces and a crystal chandelier suspended from the ceiling with several burning candles to give the room light.

Severus sat at the head of the table opposite the cabinet and Harry and Draco sat in the seats right next to him. The house elves had prepared meatloaf, mashed potatoes, peas, baby carrots and salad for the meal. Closer to the end of the meal Severus said,

"Harry, you and Draco should go to bed early tonight. I want you in bed and asleep by 10 o'clock. We've got to be up at 6:30 tomorrow so we can be at Saint Andrews by 7:30. Oh and Harry no eating tonight after this you're not supposed to eat 12 hours before." (In the UK it is usually 8)

Harry nodded and said,

"All right, how are we getting there tomorrow?"

"We're flooing, it's the fastest since we're a long way away from there."

"Where exactly are we Dad?" Draco asked.

"We are slightly north and west of Elgin in Moray. We're close to the north eastern coast and in Scotland."

Draco and Harry nodded, satisfied. Severus stood up and said,

"All right you two. You're free to do whatever you want and I will be coming and checking that you are in bed at 10 o'clock."

Harry and Draco nodded and left the dining room. Harry made his way down to the "media room" as he had come to call it. He turned on the TV and dvd player then scoured the titles and soon picked out "Dumb and Dumber." He had heard of Jim Carey and thought it looked funny. He wanted to try and keep his mind off of what was going to happen the next day.

Harry curled up on the couch and hugged one of the massive pillows to his chest and was soon laughing his head off. At some point Draco came in and started watching the movie with Harry. Even though he didn't understand the plot he still laughed at the two bumbling idiots antics. Before long the movie was over and it was almost time for bed.

Harry and Draco ascended the stairs still laughing and talking about the various stupid things that the two main characters had done. Harry entered his room and decided to soak in a bath but wait to take a shower and get cleaned up until the morning.

Harry got out of the tub feeling thoroughly relaxed. He got into a pair of pajamas and had just braided his hair and climbed into bed when Severus peeked inside. He smiled and said,

"Good night Harry, see you in the morning."

Harry nodded and said,

"Night Dad."

Severus left and walked over to Draco's room where he found the boy just climbing into bed and said,

"Good night Draco, see you in the morning."

"Good night Dad."

Severus made his way to his room and quickly changed into his pajamas and climbed into bed. He soon fell asleep. After a while Harry shook him awake. He looked at his son and said,

"Harry what's wrong? Did you have a nightmare?"

Harry shook his head and said,

"No I can't sleep. I'm scared about tomorrow."

Severus quietly sighed, nodded and motioned for Harry to climb into bed. The boy quickly did and was snuggled up to his father who said,

"Harry I know you're scared but you have no reason to be. They're just fixing your knee so you can use it again like you used to."

"I know but I'm scared that something's going to happen. I mean what if something goes wrong."

Severus made Harry look into his eyes and said,

"Nothing is going to happen. You'll go in, they'll do it. You'll wake up and we'll come back here. Okay?"

Harry nodded and snuggled tighter and squeezed his father who kissed his forehead and said,

"Good now get some sleep. Tomorrow's a big day."

Harry nodded and soon his breathing evened out. Severus soon fell asleep after Harry.

The next morning dawned bright and clear. Severus' alarm clock went off and shook Harry who woke up and groaned. Severus said,

"Harry get up, we have to leave in 45 minutes and you need to get ready. Meet down in the study."

Harry nodded, climbed out of the large bed, stretched and made his way out of his father's room. Severus followed after him and went to wake up Draco while Harry disappeared into his room. Severus emerged from Draco's room after waking and giving the boy the same instructions, and heard the sound of the shower running faintly from Harry's room soon followed by the sound of Draco's. Severus returned to his room and took a shower himself.

Severus dressed in a pair of black slacks and a gray collared polo shirt and made his way down to the study. Harry was already down there dressed in a pair of khaki shorts and a red T-shirt and sandals. Soon Draco, who was dressed in a pair of dark blue jeans shorts them and a white collared shirt like Severus,' joined them.

Severus walked over to the mantle, drew down the pot of floo powder and said,

"I'll go first, Harry you come second and Draco you come last. Just call out Saint Andrews."

Severus took a pinch of the powder and was whisked away. Harry went through next and soon was caught by his father in the floo arrival area and Draco soon popped out after him. Severus motioned for the boys to follow him and they were soon at the check-in desk for the outpatient surgical center.

The nurse took Harry's name under Harry Snape, made his identification bracelet and put it on and told him to sit down and wait for a few minutes. Those few minutes flew by for the three Snapes and Harry's name was called and Harry was lead through a door and disappeared from view.

Harry was lead to a changing room and told to change, put his clothes in the bag then to come out when he was finished. After he had finished he walked behind the nurse and passed several other beds, some empty and some with people in them that were curtained off. They finally arrived to the last curtained off area and Harry climbed into the bed.

Harry's nurse was Julie and was relatively young, probably in her early to mid twenties, and was pretty. She had warm chocolate brown eyes and chestnut brown hair that was pulled back in a french braid. Harry automatically felt relaxed and comfortable in her presence. She asked Harry about what he liked about Hogwarts and his father and brother while he was being prepped. He didn't even notice her putting in his IV that's how relaxed he was.

Harry learned that she had graduated from Hogwarts the June before he came to Hogwarts for his first year and that she had been a Ravenclaw. She was a half blood and her mother was a nurse so that's how she got into it.

Too soon for Harry's liking it was time to go and he was starting to get nervous again. Julie said that she would be assisting the doctor during the surgery so that put Harry a little bit at ease, but not much.

Before long Harry was being wheeled down the hallway towards the OR. The closer they got, the higher Harry's nerves were getting. They got into the room and Harry's eyes darted around taking in his surroundings.

He was moved onto a table in the middle of the room. His left arm, which had the IV in his hand was strapped down to a separate part of the table. The same happened to his right. A pulse/ox clip was put onto his left index finger and heart monitor electrodes were attached to his chest.

By now Harry was getting very scared and nervous and his heart rate started to pick up, his breaths became short and very fast. Julie noticed this and forced Harry to look into her eyes and said,

"Harry, Harry calm down. Just take deep breaths and only look into my eyes okay? Can you do that for me?"

Harry nodded and did as Julie said and after a few minutes his heart and breathing calmed down. After that Julie said,

"All right Harry, that's very good. Now we're going to give you something that'll put you to sleep. Okay? Don't forget that you have nothing to worry about and you'll be awake and out of here before you know it."

Harry nodded and his eyes drifted closed as the anesthesia took effect. As soon as he was fully asleep the heart monitor started to beep wildly. Harry had gone into defib, which meant that his heart wasn't pumping it was just quivering. He had also stopped breathing. It became painfully obvious that Harry was severely allergic to the anesthesia that they had given him.

It took 2 shots and 2 shocks from paddles to get Harry's heart beating again in a very weak but normal rhythm. He still wasn't breathing on his own at all though. They immediately intibated him at the first sign of trouble and now had him on a ventilator.

Harry's doctor performed the reconstruction as quickly as possible and had deemed it a success. He had found some torn ligaments and cartilage as well and had easily removed that. In the end they had to piece together the shattered pieces using small metal plates and screws.

They closed the incision area and attached a large brace that would keep his knee completely immobile to allow it the chance to set and heal. The brace itself extended from Harry's ankle to halfway up his thigh. The whole thing had Velcro fasteners securing it and a hole where his kneecap actually was.

During the entire course of the operation nothing had changed in Harry's vitals. His heart remained very weak but steady and there was no indication that he could breathe on his own. The disconnected the ventilator and attached what looked like a bubble that they pressed to push air into his lungs.

They moved Harry back onto a rolling bed, connected the heart monitor probes to a portable heart monitor. Another nurse had already called up to the Surgical ICU to tell them that they were on their way up with Harry.

As Harry was being moved and settled Harry's doctor went out to speak to Severus. He found the man and brought him and Draco to a room where they could speak in private. The doctor closed the door and said,

"Perhaps both of you would like to sit down."

Severus and Draco shot each other confused looks but took the doctor's suggestion and sat down in 2 chairs that were in the room. The doctor took a breath and continued,

"All right. First off you should know that everything with Harry's knee went fine. I found some torn up cartilage and ligaments and took those out and reattached the pieces of the kneecap with small metal plates and screws. However there was a complication."

Severus and Draco unconsciously paled at this and the doctor kept speaking.

"It turns out that Harry is severely allergic to the anesthesia that we used to put him to sleep. His heart and breathing stopped. We did get his heart going again but it's very weak but steady. He cannot breathe on his own at this time though. As of right now he's in a comatose state."

Severus finally got a bit over his shock and said,

"Is he going to be all right? Where is he now? When can we see him?"

"Harry should be fine, but he'll have to stay here for a bit. He had a severe reaction. Right now he's being taken up to the Surgical ICU ward so they can keep an extremely close eye on him. He should be up there now and settled so if you'll follow me I'll take you to see him."

Severus and Draco both nodded and got up from their chairs and followed the doctor out of the room. They followed the doctor through the twisted corridors and up an elevator and finally came to a pair of large double doors that said in big letters 'S.I.C.U.'

The doctor, Severus and Draco walked inside and up to a small desk with a nurse standing behind it,

"Has Harry Snape arrived and been settled yet?"

"Yes Doctor, they just finished. Is this his family?"

"Yes, his father and brother."

The nurse took down Severus' and Draco's names, closed the notebook and said,

"All right, follow me."

The doctor left and Severus and Draco followed the nurse down the short, small and dim hallway. The nurse turned into a room that had a window on the far wall and glass walls at the entrance instead of solid ones.

Harry was lying flat on his back surrounded by machines. Everything but his arms, the upper part of his chest and his left leg with the brace on was covered with a cream colored, light blanket. He was, of course, still on a ventilator that made his chest rise and fall a little bit.

Another IV had been started in his right hand to administer neutralizing and counteractive medications to help counter the effects of the reaction. The other had fever fighting and pain reducing medications to help in the direct affects of the surgery.

Attached to his forehead were electrodes that were like the ones monitoring his heart. Draco turned to the nurse who was still standing there and said,

"What are those things on his forehead for?"

"Those are to monitor his brain activity to make sure there's no temporary or permanent damage due to the reaction." The nurse promptly replied.

"Do you have any more questions?" The nurse asked

Severus and Draco shook their heads and the nurse left the room to go back to her station. Severus sat in a chair that was right next to Harry's bed while Draco went and sat on a small couch that was below the window but only a couple of feet from Harry's bed.

Severus lightly took Harry's fingers and squeezed them. Severus said,

"Harry it's your father. Squeeze my hand if you can hear and understand me."

Severus was ecstatic when he felt a very light squeeze from Harry's hand.

"Good Harry." He said, "Now just rest and recover and we'll be going home in no time. Don't worry, Draco and I aren't going anywhere."

There was another almost infinitesimal squeeze from Harry and soon the only sound in the room was the softly beeping heart monitor and ventilator.

A/N: Okay I decided to stop there. I figured that this is long enough and I've been writing this sucker off and on for a few days now so I hope you're happy. I'm glad that you all love the house, I know I wish I had a house like that. But I hope that this chapter was to your liking. I know that I like to take my 'Harry torture' to extremes. I didn't think my brain would go this far but I hope it wasn't too bad because you all should know by know that I never make anything so simple, cut and dry and clear cut for Harry ;-) But don't fret, Harry will be waking up in the next chapter, I promise. You all know by now that I can't keep this up for long. So don't fret, Harry will get better quickly and will be returning to the peace of lovely Snape Manor. Now push that little "go" button and leave me a review and tell me what you think but no flames, you all know the deal by this point. I'm working tomorrow and Monday but I've got Tuesday and Wednesday off for new years so I'll be able to write then. TTFN ALL!!!!!!
