A/N this chapter is from Snape's PoV (point of view).

To My Reviewers; -

BSBbaby506 ~ Thanks for your nice review, I'm glad you like my story. I don't think the abuse of Snape should be the whole back bone of the story, 'cause it's mainly about what happens at Hogwarts. I'm glad my story tempted you to read something you normally wouldn't. Thanks once more for your review, and also the advice on how to upload my chapters properly! Cheers!

OceanChild ~ Thanks for reviewing faithfully all my chapters!! I greatly appreciate it. Thanks, I'll be uploading a new chapter soon, but at the moment I'm just redoing my first three to get rid of the mistakes. Thanks for the support!!

Chapter three ~ New Allies.

I had always pictured leaving, but it was better then I thought it would be. I got to wave goodbye to them at the station, I got to board a train which was going to take me far, far away from my former life. It was like the end of a chapter and the start of something much better, or so I thought. Sometimes I wish I had declined Hogwarts and stayed at home.

But I didn't, I boarded the Hogwart's express at ten to eleven on the morning of September the 1st, and no amount of regrets can change that.

I found an empty compartment and sat down, staring at the platform as it got smaller and smaller. It was then THEY arrived.

Four boys walked into the carriage, at the head of them, clearly the leader, stood James Potter.

"This seat taken?" he asked, before sitting there anyway.

Black smirked and sat down. Lupin seemed more reluctant but eventually followed suit, leaving only Pettigrew standing.

"Sitting down, Peter?"

Peter sat down.

"So who are you?" Potter asked, turning to face me.

"Severus Snape." I replied, annoyed.

"Well Snivelus."

"It's Severus." I said, coldly.

Potter laughed. "I know, I'm not stupid." He stood up. "Come on, let's leave Snivelus alone!"

Black smirked and got up, Lupin avoided my face and followed. Peter jumped up, ovbiously scared at the thought of being left behind.

"Catch you round, Snivelus!" Potter shouted as he left the carriage.

I didn't think much of the incident, not then anyway, it didn't seem important. How wrong I was!

The train reached Hogwarts and the gamekeeper, Hagrid, called all first years forward. I noticed that everyone was in a group. I saw the four that had barged into my carriage earlier and slowed down, I didn't want to catch up with them.

We were led into a large entrance hall and told to wait.

"Hmm, so what house do you reckon then?" I heard Potter's voice ring out.

"I don't care as long as it's not Slytherin!" Black laughed.

Then we were led into the Great Hall and the sorting hat was placed in front of us. McGonagall called our names one by one.

A blond haired girl called Charlotte Gate was the second Gryfindor girl, she quickly followed her friend Lily Evans to the nearest table. Black was in Gryfindor and Potter, Pettigrew and Lupin joined him. then it was my turn. My name was called and I stepped forward.

I heard a muttered Snivelus from the Gryfindor table, but ignored it.

"Hmm well, definitely sly, devious, you'd make a wonderful Slytherin, but wait there is courage here.yes courage indeed. I hope one day you use your courage to do the right thing." The hat muttered in my ear before shouting SLYTHERIN.

I walked past the Gryfindors and sat down at an empty space at the Slytherin table. A boy turned round and shook my hand, introducing himself.

"Jolt, Lee Jolt."

"Snape, Severus Snape." I replied with a smirk.

Lee Jolt was big for his age and looked strong. Very Slytherin.

"Snape," Jolt repeated, then he turned round. "Snape, this Harriet Gorge. Hats this is Snape."

Harriet looked dainty, but looks can be deceiving. She grinned as she nodded at me.

"And this is Kyle Dobson." He said, as a boy sat down.

"I saw 'em Gryfindors, givin' you grief. Looks like we'll 'ave to sort 'em out, eh Jolt?"

Jolt nodded. "And Hats, she could giv' 'em a run fer there money any day."

Hats laughed. "Well we'll have to see what Snape can do. I take it you are pure blood."

"Of course!" I replied, hurriedly.

So that night I made some allies, allies against the Gryfindors. Maybe Hogwarts wouldn't be so bad.
