Harry Potter and Snape's Mysterious Black Eye
I'm not sure where the idea for this story came from. It just happened. And here it is, my first Harry Potter fanfiction! Please read and review, I would be terribly grateful and extremely happy if you did. And the happier I am the more likely I am to write the next few chapters hint hint. Lol.
Now you all know how this goes. I don't own Harry, Snape or any other of the characters or places featured as they belong to J.K.Rowling (lucky her), so don't sue me!
It was a fine, sunny day at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. However, the unlucky sixth years couldn't take advantage of the summer weather- they had double potions. As usual Snape wasn't in the dungeon classroom when the students arrived as he liked to make a dramatic entrance, which usually consisted of storming in, slamming the door behind him (often smashing several jars of pale, squiggly things that he had a rather extensive collection of), and roaring "SILENCE!" to the petrified pupils. But today all that changed. Snape tried to creep in as quietly as possible while keeping to the shadows in the corners of the room. Unfortunately he managed to alert the class to his presence by walking straight into his desk, and letting out a cry of "Holy doxy shit!"
"Are you alright professor?" said Hermione out of habit, as everyone knew that she really didn't care whether Snape was okay or not, while the rest of the class suppressed sniggers.
"Never mind about me Miss Granger- 100 points from Gryffindor!"
"WHAT?" exclaimed all the Gryffindors. Snape ignored them.
"Today you will be reading chapter 4 of your book 'Puzzling Potions and their Applications', and then you will make the Shrinking Solution on page 68. I will just sit here quietly in the corner". Snape edged along the wall and sat on the cabinet that contained the newt's tails and salamander eyes. It was a dark corner. Harry looked at Ron, who returned his bemused expression and shrugged.
The lesson passed without any disruptions until it came to making the Shrinking Solution. A loud 'BANG' was heard from the back of the classroom as orange flames flickered from inside Neville's cauldron and soon set fire to the hem of Neville's robes. Snape swept from his corner and muttered a spell from under his breath. A jet of foaming water shot out from the tip of his wand and put out the flames.
"Detention Longbottom" he sneered. However, Neville just stared at Snape in amazement. As Snape turned to face the class a gasp was clearly audible from several of the pupils. There, around Snape's right eye and clearly visible for all to see, was a large purple-black ring. Snape had a black eye.
How did it happen I hear you cry! Well hang on and read the rest of the chapters that I'm going to write! In the meantime, please write a review of this and I'll love you forever! Thanks!
