There will be some intense and extremely foul language!!! if you are uncomfortable with foul language, sex, homosexuality.. or anything else of any sort of what the normal people would call "abnormal" then don't read this, it will only offend you.

Lee felt the need to shake Estelle out of her screaming fit, he didn't think she had killed Millicent, and now she was on the verge of snapping. Out of nowhere Lee and Estelle were startled out of the tenseness that they had been in all day. They heard a loud yet muffled voice of Snape screaming at someone. Suddenly the doors slammed open and everyone in the other room gasped, and the doors in front of Lee and Estelle opened. "Go unpack your things now! You wont be leaving again, and this time I'll see to that personally!" Snape hissed wildly, his eyes almost looking as if they would burst into flames. "Go fuck yourself! You never gave a shit about anything I did up until today, and don't expect me to be around for long. Ill find a way out as I always do... FATHER." Pike said coldly, his eyes almost as enraged as his father's. Snape was only a few inches away from his son's face, and both of them were ready to explode in a wild fury at each other. "You will stay. You will complete your studies. And you will do it gladly." Snape growled angrily. Pike got closer; his eyes narrowing furiously "I'll hate you for the rest of my life." was all that he could manage to get out in his state of rage as he merely waved his hand, and Snape had to use his own power to keep himself from falling. Pike turned around and picked his bag up, waved his hand and the doors slammed behind him. Pike, Estelle and Lee could all hear the murmurs and gasps behind the doors in front of them. Pike in his fit of absolute rage had not even noticed Estelle and Lee staring in blank astonishment, he had not even noticed they were in the room, nor had he noticed that he had unknowingly stormed into the girls dormitories. Even if he had known, he wouldn't have cared anyway. He picked up a vase and slammed it against a wall, screaming in fury and reaching in his pocket and pulling out a bottle. He mumbled something about being short of Codeine already and took two of them, laid down on the floor and lit a cigarette. As he inhaled the bluish wisps of smoke he began to calm down. Pike laughed quietly to himself as the drugs began to work through his system, "Fuck buddies eh Blackstone?" he muttered to himself and began to laugh again, "You have real nerve." Pike quickly began to relax, feeling the drugs run through him like a blanketing wave of comfort, and he allowed himself to smile. Across the too Estelle realized what has just happened, shaken from he state of shock, not she was somewhat amused. "And who is this charming individual?" she muttered. Lee's face lit up with a huge grin of amusement "Pike Snape." was all he said, grinning recklessly the whole time. "Pike WHO?" she asked, staring at the man who had just taken god only knows what, with a cigarette in his hand, "Did you say Pike SNAPE?" she asked in total and utter confusion. "Snape, as in Professor Snape?" Lee only shook his head, still smirking. Pike lay on the floor in a mess of arms and legs as he took another drag of his cigarette and he seemed to be lip-syncing something to himself. He ran his free hand through his raven black hair, which had a solid streak of blue slightly off the middle of his head. He get out a groan as he realized that in his rage he has exhausted himself and the Codeine was wearing him down. He opened his eyes slightly as he stared at the smoke coming off of the cigarette, and he took another drag. He got up to go get his headphones out of his bag, and realized there were too people standing in front of him. It took him a moment for his eyes to focus, and when they did he muttered, somewhat amazed at the guy who stood there, "Lee? Is that you?" He blinked his eyes a few times as his vision blurred and he began to get dizzy. He laid his head back down as he muttered only one thing "Shit." his head began to swim and he smiled again, his rage completely gone, he felt better. For some reason Pike needed to live in a drug- induced state of ecstasy, he always had. Pike slowly stood up so as not to get queasy, and looked around, realizing where he was. "Fuck, right into the girl's dorm," he said half- laughing and a very impish grin, "but it wouldn't be the first time I've been in here." He sat down on one of the beds and flicked an ash into a garbage can, then turning his head back to Lee, realizing who the girl was, "Estelle LaShadi right?" he asked, and Estelle was surprised by the lack of fear in his eyes. "Sorry cupcake, not afraid of you, at least not right now..." he said with his voice trailing off into the distance. Looking up at lee he shook his head "lately I've been more afraid of myself than anyone, well that and..." he murmured, not finishing his sentence. All of then turned their heads when they heard the door creak open, and they saw Blaise walk in. "Don't you think you should get out? This is the..." she said, but Pike cut her off. "I know where I am," he sighed, "I'm not fucking stupid." he glared at her with an intensity that made her shiver and she quickly made her exit, and he smiled at her reaction to him. Drawing in the last drag on his cigarette, the got up and threw the butt of it into a glass of juice that someone had left out, not really caring about what that person would think, and hoping that it was Blaise's. Pike walked over to his bag and picked it up, waving his hand, and the doors opened, walking through them as if nothing happened, with Lee and Estelle following. Aidan Blackstone realized who it was and what had just happened, and he looked as if he was going to shrink into a corner and become nothingness. Lee looked as if he was going to burst into laugher at Aidan's reaction, and Estelle looked at him as if asking what was going on. Aidan looked at Ellivia and shuddered "How long has he been gone now? Almost a year right? How in the hell did Professor Snape find him?" Everyone in the Slytherin house looked as of they had been thinking the exact same thing. Out of nowhere before he opened the doors to the boy's dormitories, Pike looked up and stared at Aidan, just loud enough that only he could hear it, "See you soon Blackstone." he said with a devilish grin that only a Slytherin could posess and silently he walked into the boys dormitories.

Tossing in his bed, trying to get back to sleep after everyone else had gotten up and left for potions class, he lifted his head and pulled on the curtain cord. The curtains opened and bathed the room in sunlight and he smiled as the sunlight warmed his back. He reached over and pulled and Ashtray out of his bag and set it on the nightstand next to his bed, and lit a cigarette. Resting his head on the pillow he thought about home, his mother, and his friends he had been forced to leave behind. Suddenly the jolted at the sound of Madame Pomfrey's voice in the other room, and he heard Blaise too. He laid his head back down on the pillow and thought about what he and Blaise had once had together. Sighing he spoke to himself "This place changes people, she wasn't always a bitch." He took a long drag of his cigarette, and suddenly felt a presence in the room, he got up and turned around realizing that Madame Pomfrey had come into the room. "How did you know i was in here?" he asked, Madame Pomfrey was one of the few people at Hogwart's he could stand, he was actually rather fond of her, remembering one incident with Snape the ended horribly, she had been there to heal his wound. "I smelled smoke." she simple said, with a smile across her face, "What's wrong?" "I wish I was home, with my mother, with my friends, with my real family. I don't want to be here with some guy who never even cared that I existed until I was old enough to come here. He can never accept that I am not the son he wanted." he said sighing, it felt good to talk. "He wants me to be a start student, and he wants me to make him look good. You even know that." "Even though he doesn't show it, the man does love you. You two are too much alike for your own good, your both stubborn and set in your ways." she said with a grin on here face, knowing that it was the truth and he couldn't argue with her. "Maybe so, but that is still no excuse for being insincere, selfish, inconsiderate and completely devoid of emotion." he said flatly. "True." was all she had to say at that. "Well you've already missed breakfast, make sure your out of bed by noon please, I wouldn't want to see you starve." she said with a comforting smile, and as she left pike felt better although he wanted to growl at her, he knew that she had some kind of calming enchantment that had been woven into her voice. He took another drag off of his cigarette and put it out. He had decided that he was going out for a little walk, and he grabbed a small bag filed with some green herb and some papers, a lighter and his cigarettes, and simply walked out of the school.
