I do not own Harry Potter. I only own Tiffani.

Story Start

I woke up later to the sound of Severus rushing around the bedroom. I looked around saw him grabbing a long black cloak and some kind of mask before he rushed out of the room. I struggled to get up and jump off the bed so I could follow him. He didn't even look back at me before he disappeared in a green flash of flames in the fireplace. I sat down and blinked in wonder at the fireplace. I slowly went up to the crazy thing and didn't see any sight of Severus or burned flesh.

"What just happened? What kind of magic was that?" I shrieked as the realization that Severus just disappeared in a fireplace just hit me. "This place keeps getting crazier," I whined and decided to sit on the couch and wait for Severus. I had no clue where he went but I know that it is still the middle of the night, and I had a bad feeling.

Unfortunately, my bad feeling was right when hours later Severus reappeared in the fireplace, but he wasn't walking like he usually did. He practically staggered out of the fireplace and fell down to his knees. I jumped up in alarm and rushed to him. I kept asking what happened and what was wrong, but it was only meows leaving my mouth. I wanted to scream in frustration when I smelled blood. I moved his hand away from his side and hissed at the sight of blood on his hand and shirt.

Severus tried to stand back up but this time he fell to the floor completely, and I panicked more when he passed out. I nudged at his face but he was completely unconscious.

I ran from Severus to the door. Thankfully, he had made the door so I could leave if I wanted to or needed to, but this was the first time that I actually needed to leave by myself. I rushed from his quarters to the student area that I had been in earlier with Draco and his friends. "Help, please, I need help for Severus," I cried at the door and went to scratch the stupid portrait when it wouldn't open.

"Alright, alright, calm down, I will get the blonde haired boy that was with you earlier," the portrait snapped down at me before leaving the frame.

I paced in front of the door until the portrait swung open to reveal Draco. He looked around sleepily before glancing down at me when I yowled up at him.

"Lady, what are you doing here?" He asked as he went to grab me, but I jumped out of his reach.

"Severus needs helps," I cried and raced down the hallway to Severus' quarters. I had to stop a few times and yowl at Draco again so he would keep following me. When we reached Severus' chambers, Draco rushed in first and cursed when he saw his godfather on the floor, still passed out. I stayed out of the way but not too far away so I could keep an eye on everything. Draco went to the fireplace and hollered for someone called Madam Pompfrey.

I watched in wonder as a woman's face appeared in the flames of the fireplace. "Mr. Malfoy what is the problem?" the woman in the fire asked.

"Professor Snape is hurt. Lady, his familiar, got me from the common room. You have to help him, he's bleeding and unconscious," Draco told Madam Pompfrey as calmly as he could. However, I could tell he was worried just like I was.

"Step back, please" Madam Pompfrey said and Draco backed away from the fireplace, and then the woman appeared in person into the room from the fireplace.

Draco picked me up from the floor and held me in his arms while Madam Pompfrey checked on Severus. I meowed worriedly as I watched the woman cast some spell on the bleeding wound before using another spell to levitate him from his quarters. Draco closed the door behind her as we followed her upstairs to another area of the castle. Draco never let me go the entire time we went from the dungeon to the medical area we were now in.

Severus was settled down into a bed and we both watched Madam Pompfrey take care of Severus' wound and administer different potions to the unconscious man. After she was done and said that he should wake up in a few hours, Draco was ushered out of the room to return to bed, but I refused to leave Severus' side. I jumped on the bed and snuggled up to his side and hissed at Madam Pompfrey when she tried to touch me.

"Alright, alright, just behave," she said in exasperation and tiredness before she left the room to go back to bed herself.

I snuggled closer to Severus and stayed awake as long as I could because I wanted to make sure he was ok. However, I did eventually fall asleep and I woke up to the feel of my back being petted. I opened my eyes to Severus sitting up on the bed and I was now in his lap as he petted my back.

Madam Pompfrey exited her office and approached us. "You have one smart familiar there, Severus. Almost a little too smart. She refused to leave your side after she got young Malfoy from his dorm to get help for you," she told Severus, who paused in petting my back. "Well you're all healed up and I'll keep this quiet but please let Dumbledore know when this gets to be too much," she said in a kind voice before leaving the room.

"What's too much? How did you get hurt? Who hurt you?" I asked Severus as soon as she was gone but once again he couldn't understand my meows. I was kind of worried though by the look he was giving me. He was looking at me as if I was a puzzle to solve.
