Disclaimer: I am not JK Rowling so I do not own Harry Potter and Co.
Merkabah- Thank you so much for the review, I don't really let them get me down I just use them as a way to know whether or not to keep up with my story, but thank you for the moral support anyway and for being my first reviewer. And yes Paul looks a lot like Harry, they are after all twins.
Ryen Selenity Caliburn- Thanks for the review here's the second chapter.
So now on with chapter 2:
Chapter two: Getting Acquainted
They all walked into the sitting room and sat down. Mr. Deisher explained to Paul that he was adopted and, well did Snape's job for him. It was at the moment Severus decided to join them. Everyone looked up at the intruder and Nicole screamed, "DAD!"
GAGAGAGAGAGA
"Dad what are you doing here?" Nicole asked. "I've come to collect Mr. Deisher, or as he is now Mr. Potter," He spat the last name out. "No you are not, you took my dad away from me you are not taking my best friend." She screamed. "Nicole, I never took myself away from you your mother took you away from me and changed your name and appearance. I wanted everything to do with you, but your mother found out about my dangerous career as a spy and thought it best that you didn't know me personally. Your mother was a witch also she changed your name and then with a simple glamour changed your appearance so you wouldn't look like me. I have missed you so much." Severus replied.
At this point Nicole was bawling her eyes out and being hugged by Paul. "Mr. Potter, Mr. Deisher would you mind if I spoke to my daughter alone?" Snape asked politely. They both nodded and after Paul kissed Nicole on the cheek he walked out of the room after his adopted father. Severus walked over and sat by his daughter and placed his arm around her awkwardly. "I knew she was a witch she taught me the theory behind the magic and explained the things I caused, she even showed me her wand once but she would never go get me one or take me into the wizarding world. She told me a lot of things about her past, but never once did she tell me that I had a glamour charm on me or that my name was changed. Dad I don't want to live a lie take the glamour off of me and give me my real name back, please" she cried.
Snape smiled at this after all these years he was going to get to have his daughter back. "Of course dear we will start with your real name..it is Safira Oni'Sauda Snape it means like a sapphire in the dark I picked the name out because you were my gem in the dark times of the first war. Now for your glamour," he raised his wand to point directly at her "Azubuike Amadi Aldrick." (AN that literally means back to old). Immediately Safira felt her body changing, once the tingling stopped she stepped in front of the mirror and smiled. What she saw was a 5'8 black haired beauty with lovely lavender eyes. "But father you nor mom had lavender eyes, why are mine this color?" she asked confused. "It's tradition the first child of a Snape always has lavender eyes, my brother unfortunately got the lovely eyes in my family." He answered smiling.
After a few minutes Paul and Mr. Deisher walked back in the room. Safira smiled and ran to Paul "Paul isn't this great daddy is going to take me with you guys, I'm finally going to get my dad back." Paul just gawked at her "Nicole?" he asked dumbly. "Yeah it's me only it's not Nicole anymore it's Safira, Safira Snape" she grinned. He laughed and hugged her "Damn sis you look good, and now you can't complain about having boring eyes they are beautiful." Severus just smiled at the two friends, happy to see his daughter could be so calm about all of the news he really loved the sight in front of him even if one of them did happen to be a Potter. "Sorry to interrupt but we need to start leaving, we need to be at the airport in two hours." He said patiently. Safira raised her eyebrow in the perfect Snape fashion, "The airport, I thought we would just apparate back to England." Paul looked confused "What's apparate?" Safira just laughed, "It's where you are one place one moment then your at another the next, mom taught me about it." "Well unless she taught you how to accomplish apparation also then we will have to fly, because I cannot take both of you at once across ocean without risk of splinching one of us" Snape explained then saw Paul was about to ask another question, "Splinching is where only part of your body ends up at your final destination and the other part stays at the starting point." Paul grimaced, "I think I would rather fly Ni…Safira, that's going to take a while to get use to." He said as he started to walk up the stair and get packed. Snape turned to his daughter "How about we go get your things while he gets ready." Safira smiled and nodded and they headed to her apartment.
Severus helped her pack all her things then shrunk them and stuck them in his pocket. They drove back to Paul's house who was sitting outside with all of his bags. Again Severus shrunk the bags only this time told Paul to put them in his pockets. Paul did as he was told and shortly after were on their way to the airport.
It was about a forty-five minute drive there, and after Severus returned the rental car they only had twenty minutes to get to their flight. They took their seats and Paul sat beside Safira. Within fifteen minutes of the flight both Paul and Safira were sound asleep. Snape looked at both of them 'This is going to be a good year I can feel it' and with that sentiment he also fell asleep.
A/N: Sorry I know it's really short but I wanted it to end there, next chapter they arrive at Hogwarts and get settled in and School begins.
