Chapter 6: Snape

Harry was expelled into the cold darkness. Memories were rushing before his eyes in a slide show-like manner.

They didn't have time to think, or even attempt to run. The killing curse was applied to Cedric, and Harry was bound. Blood was taken from his body by way of knife. A baby like creature was arousing from a cauldron. Harry was going to be killed. He dueled with Voldemort and barely escaped.

Harry was a Snake he was slithering in front of the Ministry. He saw his prey Mr. Weasley, and was compelled to bite him, so he did.

Sirius was begin tortured by Voldemort Sirius was slipping through the veil...gone

Memories and dreams flashing like lighting, and suddenly it was over. Harry woke up, his head burning, his breath heavy and rapid, and his scar burned. He wiped away the sweat that was stinging his eyes, only to find a seemingly dead Bellatrix along with many other Death Eaters. He moved back startled. What had just happened? His brand new wand was now several feet away from where Harry was sitting although only moments before he had used it. Had he done some type of wandless magic?

Moody, Lupin, and the rest of the gang began rushing to Harry's side.

"Harry, Harry are you ok", said a very desperate looking Hermione.

Harry gulped, "I think so. What happened?"

Lupin was the first to answer.

"Harry we were over near Zonko's trying to fight off the remainder of the Death Eaters, and a few Dementors that were with them. After we finished them off, we though it might be a good idea to come help you lot. But when I looked over.... there was a massive flash of light, and both you and Bellatrix's body where knocked to the floor.

Harry realized that the Dementors were responsible for memories, but he wasn't aware of what exactly he did to cause the light, or hurt Bellatrix as he did.

A worried looking Ron stepped up. "Mate, you started screaming. I couldn't understand you, but it was some rubbish about stealing Sirius away"

Moody interrupted with a growl not unlike a dog. "We better be leaving the aurors will be here to take care of the rest, and I reckon Dumbledore will want to know what's happened. Strange kid you are Potter, strange"

They helped Harry to his feet, collected his wand, and began to walk away from the scene. Harry noticed a letter in Bellatrix's robes, and was compelled to take it. He stuffed it in his pockets and started walking towards the cars.

The ride home was uneventful, and Harry's mind was buzzing with questions. At one point Hermione leaned over to Harry, and asked him how he did it, but Harry simply shrugged, as he didn't know himself.

They arrived back at Grimmauld Place shortly and scattered. Mrs. Weasley informed Harry that Dumbledore would be stopping by in the evening to speak with Harry, and in the mean time, he should talk with Remus.

Harry and Ron went to their room and began talking.

"I'm surprised Hermione didn't snog you to death after the show you put on today?", Ron said.

"What do you mean", Harry replied going slightly pink.

"When you fainted, she ran faster than anyone...and her eyes got all misty, I think she fancies you."

Harry was about to answer before Hermione came through the door.

"Ron don't be ridiculous, just because I was more concerned than you doesn't mean that I fancy him. And frankly I just think your jealous because Harry was brave enough to go and fight, while you hid behind me"

Ron tried to retort, but it resulted in his ears going extremely red in defeat.

Hermione smiled victoriously and turned to Harry. "Harry I was looking for a bit of light reading, and I found your book, and I think its wonderful that your becoming an animagus"

Ron snorted, "Your mental, Harry would have told me if I were going to become an animagus"

Harry looked slightly guilty. "Well I'm not going to become one definitely, its just that Dumbledore reckons I should start reading the book."

Ron turned over and pretended to sleep.

Harry shook his head and took the book from Hermione who was studying his face.

"What?", Harry said.

She looked at him more intently. "Harry I think your getting stronger."

Harry looked at his arms.

"No. No", she said, "I mean with magic, but I don't think you can control it because your face was really angry before you set the light off. Harry you looked scary"

Hermione bit her lip while Harry looked as though he might explode.

"Hermione its not like I did it on purpose, and I don't even know what it was yet, just don't go off researching this and jumping to conclusions please"

Harry's warm smile made her comply almost too easily. She nodded and then left the room, just as Lupin made his way in.

Lupin came in. Harry was expecting some huge speech about Sirius, or that he had done something wrong, but he was wrong. He came in gave him a fatherly hug.

Lupin began to speak. "Well Harry, I just wanted to tell you that I wont be teaching you over the summer, Severus is a much better candidate for the job, and also Dumbledore wanted me to be here when he talks to you."

A pair of gorgeous blue eyes appeared behind the door "Right you are Lupin. Ron would you be so kind to exit so I may speak to Harry alone?"

Ron got up and left.

Dumbledore continued. "Harry, I'm sad to say this is not time for trial and error. That's why starting tomorrow you will be training with Snape. Today you demonstrated that in times of great emotion, great things could happen."

Dumbledore looked concentrated. "That's to say that Bellatrix Lestrange nearly died, she has been taken to Azkaban. It was a well off mistake. You need to learn how to control your emotions. And do read your book, you never know when you might need it" Dumbledore winked at Harry and Lupin smiled as if he was in on some kind of inside joke. They got up and began to leave.

Harry got into to bed and started to open the book. In the front was a handwritten dedication from the person who had used it before Harry.

The first two lines said: We solemnly swear to do no good. The ultimate animagus training guide, easily accomplished by Prongs, Padfoot, and Wormtail with the help of Moony.

Harry smiled and closed the book. Ron had entered into the room at some point, but Harry had not noticed. He changed into his nightclothes, and noticed he still had the piece of parchment he took from Bellatrix. He opened it and read the little contents of it.

It read: Vault 716 MA: DoMV

He read it time and time again, yet he couldn't understand. He abandoned the thought and went to bed. After all, tomorrow was big day, unfortunately with Snape.

Harry awoke the next morning bright and early. He rolled over in his bed only to find a black-cloaked man standing over him. Harry grabbed his wand.

"Relax Potter.", said Snape very coolly. "I thought I should come wake you up seeing as how you're incapable of making a correct potion, let alone waking up by yourself."

Harry narrowed his eyes and got dressed. Snape beckoned him towards an empty room in the house filled with pillows and books.

"Alright Potter, I'm sure by now even the thickest of minds would be aware that the Dark Lord has the ability to slip in and out on your dreams causing you to think they're real. Unfortunately your mind is even thicker than the thickest, so I must ask, are you aware of the grave mistake you made last year?"

Harry broke out "the mistake I made?? YOU'RE the one who refused to teach me just because I saw your bloody childhood"

Snape gave a very icy glare. "DO remember your manners POTTER", he said through pursed lips.

"We will begin by rekindling the little I was able to teach you about Occlumency. Clear your mind Potter. 1... 2... 3... Legitimens"

Harry was thrown into a world of memories. Ripper was now biting at his leg as Aunt Marge hit him with her umbrella. Hagrid busted down the door and gave Harry his acceptance letter...

Harry got hurled back into the room...he was on the floor panting looking at a satisfied Snape.

Snape pulled him up by the arm. "Well, that was an awful attempt. We try again. 1..2...3"

Harry hadn't even had time to get ready before he was in a slide show again. This time Sirius was battling and he was thrown behind the veil...the look on his face. Harry was angry beyond comprehension.... the scene became fast forwarded and Harry saw a greasy haired teenager sitting by the lake at Hogwarts studying a beautiful red headed Gryffindor girl. She was with a lot of her friends and her smile was radiant. The scene blurred. The same girl a bit older sat under a tree reading a Potions book. The greasy hired hook nosed kid went to approach her, but was stopped by a series of spells cast by a messy haired popular boy. The scene blurred. The greasy haired kid, looking more mature and confident was drawing a picture of the red headed green-eyed beauty from afar, but his book was stolen by a group of popular Gryffindor guys. Again, the scene blurred. They were now much younger, first years. It was Valentines Day; the greasy haired kid bore a smile on his face as he put the finishing touches on his valentine in the Great Hall. He stood up and began to walk over to the filthy Gryffindor table. To give it to the only thing that was worth looking at over there. But someone only he knew sent a curse flying...and his valentine made out of crystal crashed on the floor. The scene blurred...

"EEEEEEENNNNOOOUGGGH!" yelled a mortified looking Snape. "Enough ...please...well Potter you have proven that you can do something lets stop for today"

Harry was staring at Snape with an expression that could not be explained. "Potter will you stop looking at me in such a childish way. I knew you were a bit slow in the mind but let me repeat myself ...WE... WILL... CONTINUE... TOMORROW..."

Harry tried to work up words. "That was my- my-my mom" Snape retorted, "Very clever, so I knew your mother we did after all attend the same school. Even you should understand that"

Snape put on his cloak and turned to walk out of the door. Harry ran after him however.

"Professor", Harry called, but he did not turn around. "Sir", Harry called, but he did not turn around. "SNAPE", Snape turned around and gave a look of fire. Harry gulped "You were in love with my mum weren't you?"
