Title: Snape's Revenge
Rating: K
Summary: Voldemort makes Snape Headmaster but when Voldemort tells him who will be Muggle Studies Professor and Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor Snape has his own ideas on who would be perfect for the positions. Guess who comes to Hogwarts?
Disclaimer: I don't own any of the Harry Potter characters, they all belong to J.K Rowling, but I do like to play with them.

To sjrodgers108: Thanks for your review.
To JWOHPfan: Thanks for your review and I totally agree that they make a better pair.
To eternal vampire: In this chapter your not going to read about Minerva taking the potion because I want to keep this a strict K story (I'm getting tired of writing smut). However the locket will make an appearance.
To attyfan: Thanks for your review and I'm glad for yours, and everyone else's, reviews. And you won't have to worry about their child or children being overwelmed. It or them will be great just like Neville.
To notwritten: Thanks for your review.
To CYMKK09: In a few chapters and, no, I'm not counting this chapter as romatically involved. Also I'm glad that you like the RL/NT scenes. Their Severus's biggest supporters.

Chapter 6: Receiving the Locket
The owl that lifted off made Snape feel cold. He had sent a letter to Voldemort, telling him that he would be giving McGonagall the potion. He knew that tonight the seeds would be planted and then there would be no turning back. He left the cats with Flitwick, who promised to take good care of them.
"Now you two behave," Snape told the cats. "You'll both be back in the morning."
"Take care, Severus," Flitwick said.
Snape said nothing as he left, his walk filled with tortured steps.

Harry, Ron, and Hermione, under the effects of the Polyjuice Potion, headed to where Krecher had told them that the locket might be at. They had taken the form of three Death Eaters and when they knocked on the door Hermione almost screamed at the moving eye that had once belonged to Mad Eye Moody.
"Hold yourself together," Harry told her and Hermione nodded.
Getting the locket back turned out to be a trial. Umbridge had it around her neck and she was busy doing some paperwork. Hermione took out her wand and hit her with a hex so powerful that it knocked her out of her seat. Taking the locket they put it into a pouch and hurried out of the office. They took Mad Eye's eye back.
"Now we need to get out of here before people come," Harry told them. "And then we'll send this back to Hogwarts."
"I can't believe we're letting Snape get rid of it," Ron said.
"I don't like it either but there's nothing that we can do," Harry told him. "We just have to grin and bare it."
"As long as he doesn't get any credit and is sent to Azkaban," Ron told him.
The three of them left the Ministry of Magic without meeting anyone, which was a good thing.

Snape had a nightmare that night, the same nightmare that he had before, but this time Voldemort had killed Minerva and the two kids while he watched. He screamed as he watched them being tortured and then he screamed as he woke up.
"Severus, wake up," said a stern voice and when he woke up McGonagall was standing over him.
"Wh-What happened," he gasped.
"You were having a nightmare," McGonagall told him. "What happened?"
"Just almost the same nightmare as I had before," Snape told her. "Are you alright?"
"I'm fine just a little sore, that's all," she said. "I took a shower before you woke up screaming."
She placed a hand on his shoulder.
"Gods, I can't wait for this to be over," he said. "Muggleborn children having to flee to America, whole families uprooted, and I cast as the bad guy."
"You saved them all," McGonagall told him. "If anything you're a hero."
"I don't feel like it," Snape told her.
"I'll have breakfast brought up," McGonagall told him and she left the room.
Snape showered, feeling as though the water was taking away the evil of what he had been forced to do. As the water fell tears welled up and for the first time in years he cried.

McGonagall watched the house elf place the food, her eyes on the door. She heard Snape going into the shower and hoped that he wasn't scrubbing himself raw. She sat down, thinking of what happened last night. The potion had worked the way that she had read it would and it amazed her that Miss Granger had managed to do it. She started eating just as Snape came in, looking red. He sat down without saying a word and started on his eggs.
"Are you alright?" McGonagall asked him.
"I'm fine unless you count the fact that I gave you a dark potion last night," Snape told her.
"Severus, we both knew that we had to do this," McGonagall told him. "I'm not sorry for what happened, I'm sorry that we were both put in this position. You'll make a great father if it holds."
"And if it doesn't?" Snape asked her.
"Then we'll do it again," McGonagall answered. "I'm not going to have you killed at the hands of some monster. Too many people have died or have lost their souls to their crimes."
"Minerva, we both know that I won't survive this war," Snape told her. "So if I do die I want you to take care of the cats and tell my son or daughter that I was a good man."
McGonagall nodded and the rest of breakfast was done in silence.
An owl tapped on the window when breakfast was over and Snape saw a pouch tied to its leg. He let it in and the pouch dropped on the table. Snape took out his wand and levitated it out of the pouch.
"This is Slytherins locket," McGonagall told him.
"Yes, get the diadem and were heading to Gringotts," Snape told her and she hurried out.
Getting to Gringotts was easy for both Professors. They drank the Polyjuice Potion before hand and had changed into Bellatrix and her husband. McGonagall, as Bellatrix, told the goblin that she wished to see her vault.
"As you wish," it said and took them down to the LeStrange vault.
When the vault opened the goblin didn't leave. McGonagall took out her wand but Snape muttered spells that would protect them. He levitated the cup over to them and Snape placed it inside a bag that he had brought with them.
"Stun him," Snape ordered and McGonagall turned and stunned the goblin at once.
He then took out a scroll and put his arm around McGonagall's.
"What are you going to do?" McGonagall asked him.
"What I've been working on since Potter was eleven," Snape said. "Returnum Homenus."
With a flash of light both of them vanished.
When they appeared they were back in the Headmaster's office and they dumped Hufflepuff's cup on the table and added the diadem and the locket to it. Snape took the sword out from behind Dumbledore's painting and came over to those items. He brought the sword down and with a blast of light the locket, cup, and diadem exploded. Both Snape and McGonagall screamed and ducked as shards went everywhere. They heard a horrible yelling and then silence.
Both Professors popped their heads up.
"Their gone," McGonagall said and then she ran to the bathroom.
While she was in the bathroom Snape summoned Madam Pomfrey to check on McGonagall. When she walked in she was directed to the bathroom and Snape wondered if this meant that McGonagall was pregnant. While he waited he summoned Flitwick to get his cats back and the small wizard returned the two cats in his arms.
"Welcome back, the both of you," Snape told them as Koko made it known that he didn't like Snape being away from him. "Were you good around Flitwick?"
"He was an angel," Flitwick told him. "But he was very upset that you weren't here."
"I can imagine," Snape said.
The door opened and Madam Pomfrey came in, a slight grin on her face. Snape noticed, before the door closed, McGonagall on the bed. She looked like she was sound asleep and he wondered if she was alright.
"What happened?" Snape asked her, worry in his voice.
"Minerva is expecting," Madam Pomfrey told him. "However her age means that she'll have more then one."
"How many, is she in danger?" Snape asked her.
"She's having four and no, she isn't in danger," Madam Pomfrey answered. "At least not yet. But I don't want her stressing herself out."
"Well this is a war," Snape told her. "There's plenty of stress."
"I know that," Pomfrey snapped. "Just make sure that she isn't stressed. If you can do that then we'll have four new students in eleven years."
Snape felt his knees give way and Flitwick magicked a chair for him to sit.
"We have to keep this a secret," Snape told them. "No one is supposed to know that McGonagall is expecting."
He turned to Madam Pomfrey. "There is a cabin that my mother gave to me when she died. Tom has no idea that it's even there. Take her there until this war is over."
"What about a Deputy Head?" Flitwick suggested.
"Have Hagrid take that position," Snape said. "He's half-giant and can stand even the most horrible attack."
"Just tell me where to go and we'll leave," Madam Pomfrey told him.
He wrote down everything on a piece of parchment and then cast the Fidelius Charm so that only Madam Pomfrey would know where it was.
"I'll make sure that Minerva is never found," Madam Pomfrey vowed.
"I know you won't," Snape said, his tone telling her that if he found out that she had betrayed them that he would kill her.
Madam Pomfrey gathered McGonagall up and then disappeared.
"Minerva is safe," Flitwick told Snape.
"I know but I've got a feeling that this isn't over," Snape told him.
That night Snape was writing up his will when his mark started to burn. He sent a message to Sprout, telling her that he had been summoned, and then put on his Death Eater robes. He then hurried and Disapperated to Malfoy Manor.
