Authors Note: Dear God I'm sorry!!! I didn't mean to make you wait this
long! I was writing the fourth chapter for DV and I completely forgot about
One Chance. Dammit, dammit, dammit, dammit!!!
Anyway, won't make you wait longer.
"Hermione, you really didn't have to tell me." Severus began.
"Yes I did, Sev." Hermione protested.
"No, you didn't." He protested.
"Look, it's done." Hermione said reasonably. Well, as reasonably as you can get when faced with a scowling Professor Severus Snape standing in front of you looking as if he would have loved to give you about three weeks of detention even if you weren't under his control. You had to hand it to him though. He had a very intimidating figure.
"Fine." He snapped. Poppy had just let him out of the Infirmary. He was grumpy.
"Come on. Dumbledore wants to see you." Hermione motioned towards the stairs.
He groaned.
"Severus!" Albus called as he walked down the corridor.
"Hello Albus." Severus managed.
Hermione turned to leave but stopped when her name was called.
"Hermione!" It was Severus.
"I think it better if you came with us." Albus commented lightly, though there was no twinkle to be seen anywhere on his person.
"Alright." Hermione said worriedly.
"Dung Bombs." The Headmaster said to the gargoyle that guarded his office.
"Severus, Hermione, I have some news." Albus said, seating himself behind his desk.
"Yes?" Hermione queried.
"The Death Eaters that we did not round up, which I may say, was uncharacteristically stupid of me, are on the move again. And our friends, Clara Van Kleeck and Alexandra Turkowski are," He gulped, "Dead."
"No!" Snape suddenly shouted.
"I'm afraid so Severus." The Headmaster said gravely.
"How can you be sure Albus?" Hermione asked.
"There have been unsolved muggle killings in London, the dark mark has been seen in Oxford. There is not much proof, but it is there."
"Damn." Severus yelled.
"What?" Hermione asked carefully.
"I" He said, "Have a headache."
A/N: I swear this is one of the shortest chapters I have ever written.. Well, my Internet has been down recently and I haven't gotten a chance to upload. My apologies for the wait.
