A/N: I forgot how much I loved this story, so you'll be getting a few updated now! Review and enjoy! I love hearing what you all think.

I had probably said this many time before but Luna Lovegood creeps me right out. After my plan went to shit I found myself sitting in the Ravenclaw Common Room after spending a good 15 minutes trying to answer the question.

Then Luna came up.

That's right she just came up to me and sat down beside me, in a Common Room full of empty couches because everyone had went to bed, she came and sat down right next to me. The daughter of Severus Snape and the girl sits beside me, she should be lucky I'm not actually a Death Eaters daughter because I would have probably cursed her by now or turned her over to the Carrows who were reportedly going to be roaming the halls.

I sit silently almost willing her to go away as the blond girl brings her legs up under her and sits cross legged beside me staring into the blue flames of the Ravenclaw fire. I shift uncomfortably looking around the room. I was so used to being in Gryffindor tower that this new tower felt foreign and I was now uncomfortable and I couldn't actually blame that on Luna alone.

To get to the Ravenclaw tower I had to follow a rather pissy looking Anthony Goldstein up the narrow staircase, when he along with me didn't get the answer to the riddle we had to wait outside for someone else to come along. That had been a fun 15 minutes. The overall glares hadn't bothered me it was the the muttered curses to me that pissed me off. He didn't know me, and he sure as hell didn't know who I was, when it came time for me to reveal all I hoped he was around so I could rub it in his face. It felt odd to be sitting in this room though, everything was so blue. Blue hangings meshed with bronze and the celling painted with stars. Sure it was classy looking but it wasn't the home I had been in for the last six years of schooling.

There were also way too many books.
"Thats Rowena Ravenclaw, do the Gryffindor's have a statue of Gordic in their common room?" Luna asks suddenly, I glance over at her briefly before carefully answering.

"How should I know what is in the Gryffindor common room of all places?"
She seems to ponder this for a moment before setting her legs onto the floor and standing, looking down at me with wise eyes.

"Seems like a pretty reasonable question to ask a former Gryffindor," she says honestly, I feel my jaw drop as she continues,"Good night Lizzie."

I stare with wide eyes as she heads towards the staircase that I was told lead to the girls dormitory. I wasn't looking forwards to going up there, Mandy Brocklehurst had given me a rather hard glare before she had retired for the night. She had of course been accompanied with what I assume would be my other dorm-mates however I would easily be able to take care of them later.. maybe. I couldn't even begin to think of what I was now going to do about Luna. It would be pointless to try and lie, she obviously didn't believe me when I had tried. For someone who seemed to always be so out of it she sure caught on quick. Of course it was hard to say what had given me away, I had been careful not to talk to anyone and keep a look of disinterest on my face.

I was already stressed beyond belief and it was only the first night, I had to find a way to deal or I was going to pull my hair out.

Morning brought around classes, not only did I have to fight my way into the bathroom but one of my clever room mates had stolen my uniform forcing me to steal one of their in return so I had something to wear for the day. Lucky for me Lisa Turpin and I were the same size. She was more quite then Mandy and Padma, their other usual dorm-mate Morag had not returned to school this year being a Muggleborn. Padma and Mandy weren't happy with me being there, nor were they happy that I had taken their friends bed. I hoped that she wouldn't kill me when she saw what I was wearing later and would assist me in getting my own clothing back from where ever the other two had banished it to. This petty drama was not helping my stress levels.

With much concentration I manage to keep my attention on McGonagall who was teaching my first lesson of the day, her usual beginning of the term speech had been a warning against the Carrows who incidentally were the worst looking siblings on the face of the earth, along with the meanest. I had already witnessed them curse a First Year and it wasn't even lunch.

"Ms. Snape, could you please stay behind?" I hear as I stand gathering my books, I feel the curious stare as a mixture of people from all of the other houses look at me curiously wondering what I had done. Placing a light sneer on my face so Parkinson and Zabini could see I make my way to the front of the room letting my face fall as I did so.

"Professor" I greet attempting to keep the smile off of my face, it felt nice to let my guard down slightly and I was in all honestly happy to speak with her it was better then having to go speak with Severus.

I had not failed to notice how he kept trying to get my attention, nor had I failed to notice the appearance of the scary ass owl he had gotten me last school year dropping a note on to my breakfast. Needless to say I had burned the parchment upon sight knowing it was from him. I could go all year without seeing him, I was not walking to my death. For whatever reason he had not publicly outed me and I planned to keep my distance as long as possible.

"How are you settling in?" she questions, to anyone else she would sound like a regular Professor asking the new student about her arrival. I nod giving her a shrug hearing the door close behind the last student.

"As well as can be expected, Luna had figured out who I am. I don't know how, and I can assure you I haven't told her anything but she did. She stays oddly close to me, last night and again this morning she was no more then a few feet away. She doesn't say much but she's there and I pretend she's not…" I struggle to keep the emotion out of my voice looking down at the floor. "It's comforting, as much as I hate to say it since… what's going on Professor?" I question feeling my resolve crumble. I couldn't pretend to be strong, it was only the first day of class and already I was falling apart. I couldn't do this, not at all.

McGonagall looks down at me for a moment before waving her wand and warding the door silently. I could feel the magic cracking in the air as a light buzzing could be heard. We were alone, safe… for now.

"Lizzie, look at me" she orders with the same voice I had heard her use for all of my schooling. "You are strong and you are brave, if you weren't you wouldn't have been placed into my house the first time you walked through those doors as a Hogwarts student."

"I can't do it Professor! I'm so alone, I can't talk to anyone! Everyone has to think I'm Snape's daughter, I can't talk to my friends, I can't be me. I'm waiting for one of the Carrows to come get me, I'm waiting for Severus to hand me over to-"
"I don't know what Severus Snape is up to" she interrupts her voice spitting his name out like a curse word. "Stay out of his way and avoid him for as long as you can. If he was going to turn you over I think he would have by now, just do your work and stay out of trouble." she warns placing a hand on my shoulder.

I feel my shoulders sag, I didn't have another class until after lunch and already I just wanted to go back to my dorm and cry.
"Now for the problem regarding Ms. Lovegood, Ms. Potter what do you know about the Fidelius Charm?"

I feel my eyes widen in shock, "I can't use that, wouldn't it be kind of weird if I suddenly disappeared! People would really think Luna was crazy if she was the only one who could see me!"

I watch her lips press into a thin line as she regards me for a moment before waving her wand, the drawer on her desk opening and a scroll of parchment flying out and into her hands.

"Take this, it was left for you by Dumbledore in the event he should…" she trails off holding out the bunch of rolled up parchment, the bunch was thick and only took a moment to unroll the pages all blank.

"He informed me that you would know the words to revel the text. Please do so with discretion, I know the nature of what is on there and it should not fall into the hands of your classmates.

Nodding I straighten my back putting my mask in place once more as she un-wards the door and it opens, the soft chatter from the hallway flowing in. Loosely I roll the parchments up once more grasping the bundle tightly in my hand.

"Thank you for your time Ms. Snape"
"Professor" I address her curtly spinning on my heel and stalking from the classroom feeling my borrowed robes dragging slightly behind me.

Quickly I make my way through the crowds passing a few of my former house mates in a nearby connecting corridor. My eyes briefly connect with Neville's and I quickly look away upon hearing Lavender Brown hiss as my shoulder accidentally bumps hers. "Sorry" I mutter quietly looking detrimentally towards the windows as Neville seems to try and catch my eye. What was with this kid, I was Snape's daughter do they all of the sudden have no self preservation?

Once alone in the empty corridor leading up to the stairs of the Ravenclaw tower I unroll the papers quickly, "I solemnly swear that I am up to no good." I hold my breath hoping that it was the phrase that I was supposed to use because other then that I had no idea what it would be. Black ink seems to bleed onto the page and I let out my breath before noting the title and quickly erasing the papers with a quick 'mischief managed'.

Now was not the time and place to look at a Memory Fidelius Charm, nor was it time to read a note from Dumbledore in the corridor. This would definitely not be leaving my sight.

Elizabeth I am sorry for how things have gone, and I am even more sorry that they have not been explained properly to you. In light that I am gone I leave you with this: Trust Severus. Never loose faith in him Elizabeth, he is the man that has taken care of you since that Halloween night and he will continue to care for you as long as he lives. Even those who do not seem trust worthy on the surface that have otherwise proven themselves to be so should be given another chance. In event of my death you were to be given this scroll, the spells have all been developed and tested by me and I hope you find them to be useful in the years to come. Keep trust in your brother Elizabeth and even when times seem hard and you do not feel like you can, trust yourself. You are a strong young woman Elizabeth and over the last six years I have watched you grow into the woman that I know you parents would be proud of. You are strong, you are brave and you will help keep the student of Hogwarts safe and bring together those that can be trusted.

I have the utmost faith in you Elizabeth Potter, and I hope that you can still find trust in me.

The following lines continued in a similar manner, trust yourself, trust Severus, be brave. There was no other mention to Harry and I continued to be boggled at how he seemed to know that he was going to die, and then he'd continue to make it seem like it didn't happen by accident. I had never been one to read between the lines too much and any other spells I cast on the parchments didn't reveal any hidden text. Trust Severus? Ha, I had a hard time doing that now, I couldn't even look at him much less trust him now. Sure, he hadn't killed me yet but I'm sure it was only a matter of time before he got tired of playing games and killed me during dinner or something.

Modified Fidelius Charm- Use to block information, sensitive information can be given to an individual. When charm is used on a subject they can no longer speak of the information given. Still kept similar to original Fidelius Charm but instead blocks out the information from the brain to the mouth, cannot be viewed if the mind is invaded. To preform, caster repeats the information that will be kept by the new keeper. With a wand pointed to the keeper, caster is to place hand on their heart and repeat 'fidelius memorium'. The information that is being hidden must once again be repeated this time by the keeper as the spell binds them.

Multiple individuals could possible be done at one time but the caster would have to point to each person in turn and the information repeated in sync by the keepers.

With a groan I tap the roll of parchments and clear it from wandering eyes ignoring the looks I was getting from Mandy and Lisa who were sitting in their beds with their books in their lap. Spells? He gives me a bunch of spells? I wasn't even sure Luna could concentrate long enough to preform this on her. Why couldn't Ginny have recognized me? I lay back onto my pillows now trying to think of ways I could get the younger Ravenclaw to concentrate and understand the situation at hand, it wasn't that I didn't trust her persay it was more her mind that I didn't trust. I wouldn't put it past her to mention in passing with out even realizing what she had done. I didn't think she was stupid, I just didn't think her brain and mouth were connected. A group, the notes said I could preform it on a group, a group didn't really...

"Oh my god!" I spring up in my bed my feet flying to the floor as I rush out of the door leaving two very confused dorm mates behind. I almost laughed when I heard a very startled exclamation of, "What the hell was that about?" behind me.
