Fathers day 4

The nanny's had always taken care of his kids educations. He made sure he didn't have to worry about one more thing. But now he had to worry about one more thing. With no available nannies who were licensed to teach he had to send the girls to public school. The magical public school in Hogsmead was really great, or so he had heard, but that was the last thing he wanted to do, but from Allora's nre experiences he could tell that he needed to get the girls out away from the dungeons.

"So you've lived in the dungeons you whole life?"

"Yes" Allora took a bite of her breakfast.

"I never saw you at Hogsmead standard. Where did you go to school?"

"Nannies." She said with her mouth full.

"So you know all the teachers here, all the house elves, everyone?"

"I know everyone that is a staff member, they have all babysat me and my sisters at one time or another."

"You have sisters?!" This came from over half the gryffindor table, gaining the attention of the audience that she actually wanted."

"Yeah, two."

"I'm sorry but you seem to be too laid back to be Snapes daughter." Dennis Creevey was whispering in his excitement. As interested as they all seemed to be in her life before sorting none of them really wanted to be her friend. They were too afraid of Snape and what he would do. The first years that she roomed with liked her fine and they were becoming great friends until they had their first potions class.

Snape swept in all black robes and sneers. Albus had tried again with the intra house relations in his class. Slytherin, Gryffindor, to top it off his daughter would be in there. It would be the performance of his life. He started with his usual speech and noticed out the corner of his eye that she was mouthing it along with him. Luckily no one else noticed that, they were too busy being terrified by him. When at last their terror was just fear, they looked at her. She sat staring at her father with adoring eyes. When they began to make their first potions she knew where the stores were, she understood the directions without any complications, she was already a potion expert. Snape still took points away from Gryffindor and gave points to Slytherin but Allora neither lost nor gained any points. They all knew that no matter what that damn ragged old hat said, Allora Snape was in a house of her own, she always would be. It seemed to be that way in every class though, it was just more noticeable in potions. She seemed to already know most of the information. Within her first month she had mastered everything in every class on the first try. Allora had been babysat and taught by these very teachers and other teachers as well. She had Albus Dumbledore as a godfather and Snape as a father. The only other heritage the child was missing was Voldemort. Of course she was related to the other famous wizard of the time but no one knew it. Her mother had been a Potter, James half sister. It seems the Potter men were not as reputable as some would like to think. Snape had never ventured into the questions of Marisa's past. They had a general accept and ignore policy in their family.

They met soon after James and Lilly's death. Harry had already been taken to the Dursleys and Marisa wasn't exactly the stable type anyway. She and James hadn't been close, they barely knew one another, but when she had heard of the tragedy she came to see what she could do. She had the same Black hair and Green eyes that James had and the resemblance was remarkable the only difference was the color of their skin. Where as James was rather pale this woman had a beautiful olive complexion. . Severus hadn't been long switched sides. He learned about the attack on the Potters and had tried to get there before Voldemort. He didn't make it. Aurors took him in for questioning but Albus assured them that he wasn't the one that had done it.

Marisa had recently graduated from Durmstraung and was looking for a job, Albus was in need of an Ancient Runes teacher. She took the job and she and Severus hated each other. Eventually the hate turned to friendship and then love. She found out she was pregnant and they both decided she should quit work. They wanted someone to be with their children while they were growing.

All the Gryffindors were jealous. The Slytherins were angry, the Hufflepuffs and Ravenclaws were very put out. This girl had the best qualities from each house and she was the daughter of Snape, no one could touch her, and no one wanted to get anywhere near here. She had no friends and ran to her father one evening telling him so. He tried to sooth her but he had never had many friends so he really didn't know what to say. He told her she could stay in the dungeons for the night. She smiled at him with tears in her eyes
