~*~*~*~*~*~* CHAPTER THRITY TWO: SNAPE & DUMBLEDORE
Dumbledore had figured it out the hidden message behind the dream much faster than Harry had. Dumbledore knew that Harry was connected to Voldemort through his scar and that everything that Harry said was true.
But the old Headmaster also knew that Draco and Hermione had feelings for one another. It was easy to figure out, after the Quidditch match that is. Using common sense, he had figured out that the only reason Lucius would agree to kill Draco would be if he found out that Draco's loyalties had switched.
Apparently, the Quidditch match had caused rumors to spread, and one such had unfortunately reached the ears of Lucius Malfoy.
Using the mudblood as bait for Potter.
This could only mean Hermione. Hermione, Ron, and Ginny were the only people Harry would go at lengths to rescue. But Harry wasn't falling for that anymore. After Sirius, Dumbledore explained to Harry, never to go rescue someone without sure confirmation from himself.
As for the attack, Dumbledore had contacted the ministry the next morning and requested Dumbledore's Army be allowed at Hogwarts. After last year's episode, Fudge did pretty much anything asked by Dumbledore and even sent some Auror's to Hogwarts to ensure safety.
But even with all this, Dumbledore was still worried. No one had ever attempted to attack Hogwarts before, and Dumbledore feared for the safety of the students and facility. He was doing everything he could think of to ensure the safety of the school but Dumbledore could only do so much. Lost in thought, the headmaster barely heard the knock on the door.
"Professor Dumbledore sir?" Severus Snape called from the door.
"hmm.Oh Severus! Please come in, I've been expecting you!" Dumbledore said as they shook hands. Snape took a seat.
"All the children are very excited about this little club you have organized" Snape said. Dumbledore just sighed.
"Yes well I really do hope that some of them use it to their best interests. It's not some petty team, we'll be teaching them spells to defend themselves, maybe save their lives."
"About that Professor, what will happen if the Death Eaters really do attack Hogwarts?" Snape asked curiously, knowing that Dumbledore always had something up his sleeve.
"Well Severus, I plan to explain the situation to the school when the time arrives. All willing to fight, and this goes for facility as well, will indeed fight. Those unwilling will be protected."
"It sounds good Albus but I can't imagine any student's defeating Death Eaters!" Snape exclaimed
"Which is exactly why *you will teach them the top spells, in order to defeat Death Eaters and protect themselves."
"Me? But sir--" Snape was cut off by Dumbledore's hand
"Severus, you know exactly what spells these men will be using. You are to attend the meeting tonight am I right?" Dumbledore inquired
"Well yes but--"
"Please Severus." Snape sighed
"Alright."
Dumbledore smiled, the familiar twinkle of his eyes back. "Severus, I do ask that you be *very careful. You are our best source of information and one of my most trusted colleagues. Just be careful.
"Of course Headmaster. I'll be very careful. After all, I've been doing this for years now haven't I?" Said Snape, standing up while shaking Dumbledore's hand.
"Of course, but with Draco switching sides, they might question you. Just report back here as soon as possible." Snape nodded.
"Good-bye Albus"
"Be careful!"
"I give you my word" ~*~*~*~*~*~*
