Title: The One Who Fears Me

"Perhaps I underestimated your honor towards Granger and this cat," stated Death thoughtfully, "but you must not postpone the inevitable solution."

"You will get what you want," replied Severus wearily, "you always do."

"Not true Severus, you know this more than anyone for you are bonded to the one who fears me," replied Death without judgment.

"I don't need your sympathy," Snape retorted angrily.

"Why do you think me cold Severus? I love all souls with all my power, and care for their well-being. But understand there will be no peace until this situation is resolved, especially for your Crookshanks."
