Disclaimer: Don't own anything, though I wish I did, and I have no money to by it. So this is just a small rambling of my imagination.

Author Note: Hello, it's been awhile I know, don't shoot me. I read the sixth book (and yes I cried if anyone else out there did, sobbed it a better word) and I have my theories but I am not going to get into. I have decided to continue this story, but only if someone wants me too. Even if one person wants me too I will. But this will not link into the sixth book AT ALL…nothing in this story will have anything to do with the sixth book. So that is why this chapter is so short. I just wanted to put this message out there and see if anyone is actually still reading this….now on with the chapter, even if it is short.

Chapter 11: King of the Black Unicorns

After three days of the meeting they all returned to the Castle. Hermione was no longer on speaking terms with Ron and Harry and when asked about it by the adults she just shrugged it off.

Ginny remained at 12 Grimmwauld Place along with the rest of the Weasley family except Ron. Hermione brushed past Ron and Harry briskly as she marched down to the dungeons to return to her Slytherin room. She reached the snake statue a few minutes before the others and was settled in before they even got in the door.

"Hermione," Harry said sitting down on the opposite end of the couch where she had seated herself, a book propped open on her knees.

"Humph," she stood and stalked over to the table and sat herself down, slamming the book on the table with an annoyed glare at Harry.

"'Mione, we said we were sorry," Ron pleaded.

"But did you mean it?" She retorted harshly and buried her nose in the book and made a point not to even glance there way.

With a soft humming sound the Snake door swung open and the figure that was standing there surprised them, it was Professor Snape, not looking at all like he was ever hurt, "follow me," he said simply and turned to walk away.

The three of them followed.

"Professor Snape, where are we going?" Hermione finally asked after they exited the castle.

"To talk to Hagrid," they all balked, he never said his name before that they could remember. As a matter of fact he has been acting strange sense they got there. Almost….nicer... and they he hadn't insulted them yet in the past week. It was all very odd, Harry thought.

The three reached the hut and with a swift briskness that shouldn't have been possible for a man who had just been released from the Hospital Wing, Professor Snape knocked on the door.

The door swung open almost immediately and they were greeted by barking.

Fang rushed past Hagrid and sat in front of Snape and shoved his muzzle under his hand. Snape's response surprised them all; he scratched the dog under the chin casually as if it was the most natural thing to do.

"Ah….Professor Snape, nice to see you out and about," Snape only response was a glare.

"Hagrid," was his curt response, "they are ready I presume?"

Hagrid hesitated, "oh ya, I told 'him, ye would be comin' up for o visit, he was mighty 'cited to here that,"

"Fine," he said stiffly, "you three," he turned to glare at the trio, "we are entering the Forbidden Forest and I don't want you prancing around like a bunch of dimwits that you are,"

Welcome back Professor, Harry thought sourly.

He led them into the Forest with an ease that could be read as he knew exactly where he was going and had traveled the same path to many times. They walked for about an hour, Harry and Ron huddling together and jumping at every sound and creak in the shadows. The sun was setting and the forest was thick and dense and the path was overrun and often almost impassible.

They reached a small clearing with a pond at the far end that glistened with silvery abnormal looking water.

"Professor…" Hermione said softly almost looking panicked, "is this…..what…..are those…..?"

Snape looked back at her, with an almost grin, "they are, and that is, the home of the Black Unicorns…."

Ron's jaw dropped, and Harry just looked confused, "Black….what?"

"Black Unicorns," Hermione said breathlessly, "those are Unicorn Demons, more powerful than regular Unicorns, so powerful if there blood is touched after an hour of being hit by a Killing Curse it will revive you,"

"But isn't it like….impure….or whatever to drink Unicorn Blood?"

"To drink a White Unicorns blood," Snape said, "Black Unicorns regularly give up some of there blood to trustworthy humans, it won't kill them like it would a White Unicorn…..stay here for a moment,"

He walked forward until he was in the center of the clearing, his back facing away from the pond.

He dropped to one knee in a formal bow, "I request the permission to speak with His Majesty," he said in a clear crisp voice, "We are humans of the Castle and come harmless and defenseless,"

Two magnificent looking creatures trotted into the field. They were both glossy black with black mains that sparkled blue in the sunlight, their horns were each a different color, one was red like blood the other blue like the water of the mystical pond that lay in the clearing. One, the blue-horned one, walked forward and in response Snape put his head down so he was looking at the ground.

The Black Unicorn gently nuzzled the back of his neck, "Arise, friend," a soothing voice said. It was hard to tell where it was coming from but the trio had a distinct feeling that it was coming from the amazing animal in front of them.

Severus stood and nodded his head in a polite friend, "Shall my request be granted, old friend?"

The Unicorn nickered, "it shall," the animal spun and let out a low whinny as Snape got to his feet.

Instantly a larger beast came out of the woods. Its size was mighty, its color a raven black and its demeanor proud. Every step it took left a tremor in the earth beneath their feet. The large horn was sharp as steel, the color of early morning mist.

"How fairs thee, Hoof-Brother?" the Unicorn said circling Snape.

"I fair well, and all goes well with you, milord Radicor?" Snape said bowing again slightly.

"No need for such, formalities, all fares well with me, please invite your…..friends….to join us,"

The trio froze and slowly stepped forward out of the woods and bowed.

Slowly as they straightened up the king circled them, sniffing and blowing and nudging them occasionally.

Harry watched Snape smirking over the King's withers. He had an odd suspicion that Snape and the King had a good relationship. The fact that Snape had friends almost made Harry smile.

Radicor froze when he came to Hermione who was practically paralyzed with fear, "the Wind blows strong with this one…with all of them,"

"I know, but I do not which to introduce them, as of now, dangerous times ahead, Radicor, dangerous indeed."

"Aiy," he said walking away, "what brings you here, Severus, it has been long since your last right?"

"I wish to teach them," Snape said nodding to the ever-so confused trio, "they must learn if the needs arise for them to make a quick escape in later times."

Radicor nodded and turned and nickered.

3 Black Unicorns trotted into the field, "come here you three, this is Rayford, Vioree, and Darrow." Each one looked exactly the same except Rayford had an orange horn, Vioree a pink and Darrow a yellow,"

The trio walked up to them tentively and they greeted each other.

"Come along,"

"What exactly are you teaching us, Professor,"

Snape smirked, "how to fly,"

"FLY?"

End Chapter 11

I am very disappointed in that chapter, but whatever I just needed to write something before I lost my trail of thought for this story. Update if anyone still wants me too.
