Chapter 5: Truth Found Out

Couple of days after the letter incident, Uncle Vernon came to Harry's room at night while he was reading.

"Boy, tomorrow your aunt and I'll be going to Marge's. She is sick, so we'll be gone for a couple of days and I want you to behave."

With that his uncle turned around.

"Wait a second, where will Dudley go. I mean is he going too?" Harry asked. He wanted to know if he was going to be alone.

However, his uncle smirked. "Dudley will stay here. He's too old to have a baby-sitter. I want you to behave and stay in your room. Dudley's in charge, understand?" Harry nodded. "Good, he'll continue giving you food. If I hear one word of complain about you, I'll personally make sure you regret it."

His uncle left with a haughty exit. Harry snorted. Yeah right, his uncle couldn't harm a bloody fly. (A/N: He'll change his opinions soon. MWAHAHA) The only violent person in this house was the pig Dudley.

It was his luck to get stuck with that prick. Harry sighed and got back to his reading Practical Defensive Magic and its Use Against the Dark Arts. Sirius and Remus had given it to him for Christmas last year. Sirius. Even thinking about him, Harry felt a pang. He had been such an idiot. He should have listened to Hermione. There wasn't one time that she had been wrong.

A soft wind blew in the room cooling harry and ruffling the pages of the book. After a minute, they settled down. To an empty page. Half exhausted, harry took off his glasses and moved to put away the book. Just as he touched the page, writing suddenly appeared all over it as if it had been written in invisible ink. Curious, he put on his glasses. The writings vanished. He took the glasses off. The writing appeared. Exasperated and astonished Harry moved the book closer and started reading it.

Dear harry,

I hope you are reading this. So if you are reading this then I am not around. Sorry, forgive me. But don't worry, you'll see me soon enough. I am not dead. I know that I am inside the veil but don't lose hope, because I am not gone yet. I know you're wondering where the hell I am and what in the bloody world I am talking about. I hate to be so mysterious but for your own sake, trust me and you'll see me soon enough. However, I'll leave you with a hint.

I have spent long years working with Sibyll Trelawney. If anyone knows of their future, it's me. She may be a fraud, but she is not a liar. Don't drive yourself insane because of me. None of this is your fault. Also, no one can read this message but you. Just to make sure that it really is me: I gave you your first firebolt in your third year. Pig was given to Ron by me. My other name is Snuffles and I hate Snivellus. Also you can talk to Moony about my work with Trelawney and he'll tell you more. Don't lose hope or faith Harry. You are more like your father than you believe, but your heart is like you mother's. I know that we haven't spent much time together, but I promise when I'll be back, you and me will have a life together. You are like my son and I love you a lot and care for you deeply.

With lots of love and fleas,

Your charming, handsome and one-and-only godfather,

Snuffles aka Padfoot

Whoa, Harry thought, what the hell! That was out of this world. Harry took a deep breath and read the message again. So, he wasn't dreaming or imagining anything. What did this mean.

Well, Harry wasn't about to give up on this mystery. He quickly put on his glasses as the writing disappeared, and pulled out a clean role of parchment, ink and quill.

Dear Professor Lupin,

Harry wrote, and bit the back of the sugar quill for some ideas.

How are you? I am fine, here, as you know. How are Ron and Hermione. I haven't talked to them yet. Are they at the Headquarters. Anyway, how are you holding up? How's Tonks? I am so sorry about everything that has happened. Do you know what's going to happen to the HQ? Kreacher?

I was working on Trelawney's homework, when I remembered that Sirius had mentioned that he had worked with Sibyll before. I was hoping if you could tell me more about the work they had done together. Did it have anything to do with fortune-telling?

I will be waiting for your answer.

Harry P.

Harry finished the letter, fixed a few things. After rereading it, he called Hedwig over. It was her time to be let out anyway.

"Come here girl, will you take this to Remus and wait for him to write back." Harry said softly while petting Hedwig, as she nipped at his ear. He tied the letter gently to her foot and after giving her a boost, he watched her fly away, feeling a wave of loneliness wash over him.

Closing his eyes and taking off his glasses, Harry examined the book further. Nothing. He found nothing besides that letter. He got off his bed, still without glasses and after finding his trunk, he started taking out everything. From clothes to schoolbooks to quills. After throwing everything around, harry spent almost an hour checking everything he owned. All this searching resulted in was leaving harry frustrated and leaving his room a mess. He came up empty handed. With a sigh, he dumped everything back in the trunk. He stood up and went to his bed, accidentally stubbing his toe on the side of the trunk and muttering curses at it. He fell across his bed with exhaustion. He closed his eyes, hoping for some sleep. Harry must have been very tired, because he was so deeply asleep, he didn't notice the door of his room open and a big figure blocking the door.

Selena sighed and pushed her hair out of her face. This was getting bloody boring and she was getting mad. It was half past and she was already going nuts.

"Kitti, I am going home." The exasperated girl said.

"Sorry, Lenny." Kitti (her full name was Katrina) apologized, "Who knew that the British team would win? I mean they have been losing all season. Don't worry, I'll take you home."

The two girls got up and moved towards the red Corvette.

"I still can't believe you set me up!" Selena said angrily as she thought of what her best friend had done. "I mean, I wouldn't even care if Declan is the only boy on earth or anything of that crap. What I don't get is how did you fall in his trap, not to mention how did you set us up on a bloody DATE!!!"

But before Kitti could answer, a black, sleek car drove up right in front of the two girls and the front window was pulled down.

"Hey, Len, up for our date." The blond boy sitting in the seat said. "Since your pathetic team lost, like I said they would."

"Ugh! When hell freezes over!" Selena replied thoroughly disgusted.

Before the boy could say anything back, Selena and Kitti crossed the car and went towards their car.

"Your loss, Malloy." The boy shouted before driving his car down the parking of the stadium.

Selena rolled her eyes and jumped onto the passenger seat. She looked in the side mirror when she noticed a tall man with black hair and dark clothes, staring at her. When Selena turned around, he had disappeared.

Kitti started the car and sped out of the parking lot.

"Sorry, Len."

"Forget about it. It's just you know how much I dislike Declan. He's pitiful. And it was a shock for me that you set me up on a date to a guy I hate, without telling me."

"Come on though, he tricked me, too." Kitti said hopelessly.

"Yeah, guess we both got stumped!" And the two girls started to giggle.

MASMASMASMASMASMASMASMASMASMASMASMASMASMASMASMASASMASMASM

By the time, Kitti dropped Selena home, they both were more composed and had made plans to call each other later in the evening.

Selena was humming as she opened the door to her house. She saw the car outside and figured that her mom was probably home.

"Mom, I'm home." Selena yelled as she stepped in the house.

She went to her mother's room and stopped as she saw her mother asleep.

Ohhhh! She thought, how cute! She went to her mother and softly kissed her on the cheek. Her mother stirred lightly.

"Len, is that you. Well, there is dinner in the fridge. I don't feel so good, so I'll just sleep, all right." Eveline said, dazedly.

"Sure, mum. Do you need something." Selena said, worriedly. "Did you eat?" Her mother nodded and fell back on her pillow, Selena fluffed for her.

Her mother shook her head and was already half asleep. Selena smiled fondly at her mother.

She slowly walked towards the door, when she noticed something on the dresser right next to the door. It looked like a letter but unnaturally thick. Surprisingly it had her name on the front.

Selena picked it up and took it up to her room.

The scrawl on the front page was small with a neat female handwriting. There was only her name on the front. She slowly turned to the back and was surprised to see an ink stamp in green color with a 'S' in the middle. She slowly opened the package.

There was a couple of letters and small bottles. Confused Selena opened the first letter.

Dear Selena,

What I am about to tell you may sound unusual but it is the truth. Your mother, Eveline Malloy is not your real mother. You see, you were adopted when you were less than a week old. Now, I am sure that you would be confused as to how I know this. You see your real mother's name was Victoria Savvy Snape. WAS, she died giving birth to you. My name is Severus Tobias Snape. I am your father. (A/N: I know it sounds a lot like the Star Wars, 'Luke, I am your father.' But I wasn't sure how to write this. If anyone has an idea on writing letters. Plz. send a review. Any help is appreciated!)

I know you are wondering why I am telling you this now. You see, couple of weeks ago, I got a letter from my late wife telling me that we have a daughter who is still alive. The daughter, I came to find out, was you. Your real name is April Selena Snape. I would like to explain everything to you personally. I have talked to Eveline and we have decided that I would be able to meet you in the time of two days. However, I want to hear from you into knowing if you would like to see me. I will await your answer with my owl. There is other letter in this package. They were included by your real mother.

With Regards,

Severus Tobias Snape.

Selena was appalled. What the hell!!!! she thought. She was adopted!! Why did her mother never tell her? How can she communicate with someone with owls? Who in the bloody world was Severus Snape? Did she know him? Confused thoughts ran through her head. In the end, the only solution she found was to finish reading her other letters.

Besides the one from Severus Snape (she wasn't ready to call the stranger her father, yet), there was only one letter left.

She slowly opened it with baited breath hoping that there wouldn't be anymore surprises.

Dearest daughter,

Maybe, it's not my place to call you my daughter since you already have a mother. I know that Eveline will be as good of mother as I always hoped to be. I have complete faith in her. Yet that is the reason I had advised her not to tell you the truth about your real family. I wanted you to never have a doubt about how much Eveline loves you. I worried that if you knew the truth you would try to find out about your real family. And I didn't want that to happen unless Severus, your father, himself was alive to take care of you.

This letter was supposed to be forwarded to you by Severus. I didn't want to cause you pain and doubt by letting you know before hand and then have you find out that both of your parents are dead. Maybe, I was being selfish to hide this from you. I had begged Eveline not to tell you before my letter got to you.

I hope that you would give your father a chance. In the beginning, he may not be the most charming person you have probably met, but as I said, please give him a chance. He is not a bad person, just a bit mislead. And I am sure that you would love him as much as I do and I know for a fact that he loves you a lot too. I hope that you will get in touch with him soon. He is a great person and deserves a lot more than he gives himself credit for. I love you a lot. I love you now as I presently see you lying on my lap, deeply asleep. It's hard to imagine how your life would be in sixteen years and how you yourself will be. Take care of yourself, Eveline, and Severus.

With lots of love,

Victoria Snape a.k.a. Savvy

Savvy, Selena thought, was the name of her real mother; how fitting. Her mind was in a whirlpool of emotions and feelings. What would have happened if Severus hadn't come for her? Would she have never known her family, living a lie for everyone to see?

Selena sighed and put her head in her hands. That was when she felt a feeling of being watched. She looked up and saw her mother-no wait Eveline- in the doorway.

"Did you read the two letters?" Eveline asked.

Selena nodded.

"Why did you lie to me? Why not tell me the truth, mum?" Her voice ended in a desperate plea.

"Oh, Lenny." Eveline stepped forward and drew her daughter in a hug. "I am sorry, I really am. But I had made a promise to your mother." Her voice choked on the last word.

Eveline waited a minuted to compose herself and then said, "Come with me to my room, I will explain everything."

Both the females got up and the latter one picked up the letters and followed her mother to the other room.

Selena settled comfortably next to her mother, under the blankets and put the letters by her side.

"Alright, let me start from the beginning. First of all," Eveline shot her hand out and after muttering something, a long stick came flying right into her hands. Eveline sighed deeply as if finally being reunited with something very important. "this is a wand. Actually, this is my wand. Every wizard or witch after the age of eleven gets a letter from Hogwarts the school of witchcraft and wizardry. The student then buys their books and a wand that suits only them and start their first year in Hogwarts."

Selena's mouth was open and her eyes were wide with amazement.

"Wow, is this real? Witches, wizards and wands???"

Eveline smiled softly, "Yes, that's what I thought when I first got my Hogwarts letter."

"Why didn't I get one?" Selena asked disappointed.

"Oh, Lenny, I didn't want you to get one and somehow we never received it, I guess. Not many people knew of your existence or your connection to your parents."

Selena nodded. "Alright, now will you tell me of Severus and Savvy and what happened to them."

So, Eveline nodded and started her tale. Starting from how she had met and befriended Savvy and later of her years. After about an hour, Eveline ended the explanation with her meeting with Severus and how he wanted to see Selena.

"So."

"So what?" Selena answered.

"UGH! I mean do you want to meet Severus?"

"Umm, I don't know, mum. It's OK if I call you mum right?"

"Yes, stupid, both me and Savvy are your mum, understand?"

"Hmmm." Selena said, "Do you think I should meet him?"

"Of course, I admit he is not the best person to be around but it seems like he does care about you."

"What if, later on, he changes his mind?"

"Well, then we'll curse him and be again as we are now." Eveline said laughing and Selena joined her.

"Thank you, mum." Selena leaned forward and hugged her mother.

An hour later, Selena had fallen asleep and Eveline was trying to.

Eveline gently brushed some bangs off from her daughter's face. She was the best daughter anyone could hope for, Eveline thought, so Severus Snape better take care of her little angel or he will have hell to pay.
