Chapter 15

The Secrets of Severus Snape and InuYasha Tashio Higurashi

Kagome:

You had to giggle at Yashie's face. We sat in the office of the Head Master. Professor Snape. I had secured the roll of Demonics again, with my InuYasha. But the Carrows did not like teaching, so Muggle Studies and Defence against The Dark Arts were open. That's where Breeanna White comes in.

'You think the Dark Lord will believe that I hired someone because they are stupid enough to be persuaded mindlessly?' Severus snapped coldly at InuYasha's idea. I knew that my daughter had to get in the this permanently somehow, just a question of which way.

My face that was mirrored in my daughters as she struggled to control the anger that took over. ' The… Dark… Lord.' She struggled under the words with the mix of disgust. ' I'm sure will do it.. For you.'

Yashie's lips pulled up into a strained smile. I could tell she was in pain. Demons did not suit pregnancy well.

We did not tell Severus about the baby though, it would put to much of a target on Yashie if the Dark Lord knew she carried a Potter. Even if it was assumed that she was carrying his child. The assumption would turn into her murder.

Severus looked over at the painting of Dumbledore. He was locked on InuYasha's and my face. Slowly the painting nodded. 'Severus, this is the best plan. Hire her.'

Severus stared coldly at Dumbledore. Standing up Yashie ran her fingers through her hair making them dark brown curly locks down to her hips. She rubbed her face leaving her lips less full her nose shaped differently, switching her black eye brows to brown, and finally, she changed her eyes into almond shapes, with the a milk chocolate colouring. InuYasha had turned herself into a young human.

This human… Breeanna, raised her hand towards Snape as an offer to him to either accept or deny her. He grudgingly shook her hand.

Yashie:

'You have Gryffindor Seventh year first Anna.' McGonagall whispered in my ear as she quickly ate her eggs and toast as the Carrows watched. Those two were an ugly pair. 'No one will gives us any trouble except for Slytherin. And they already passed their so called "Exams". So you won't have to teach them. Anna?'

My attention was caught by another, a old face I knew well. My own. Kayla and Draco sat at their assigned table, Kayla with a child in her arms. The child looked a year old. Though it was only a couple months.

'Yes, that is quite fortunate isn't it?' I muttered not listening. The first chiming bell went, though it seemed more of a groan now.

My first class with the Gryffindor House. As a teacher anyway, and I heard their whispers down that hall.

'Who do you think she is? A Death Eater?'

'I doubt she'll do anything useful, with the Carrows here.'

'Hey! Give her some credit! McGonagall said she was from Gryffindor.' came Neville's voice. Interesting, I had heard he was sort of an "exile" at this point.

They all came into view, and huddled together. All the familiar faces were here. Neville, but also Seamus and Dean Thomas, and Ron's ex-girlfriend Lavender Brown.

'Good Morning class!' I copied my mothers teaching voice.

The class went well, I did better then I would have expected myself to do. We leaned about the Unforgivable Curses in Theory and I taught them about Demons. I was surprised to see that Neville was the top of the class.

The bell went and everyone packed up for their next class. I was glad I had a spare, I felt a little dizzy. A month and a half and I still felt sick, this kid needed to give me a break.

'I got up and was surprised when I hit the desk. Looking down a groan 'Oh fabulous.'

I hadn't realized anything wrong since this whole body was wrong. But when I transformed the bump ( Still a demon pace) was actually showing a little.

I leaned up against my desk and a stack of books fell off. Today was just getting started! How could this all be happening?

I clutched my throbbing stomach, since it had just hit a wooden desk, and reach stared to reach for the books. A cut up and beat me there.

'Don't. Here.' Neville's voice whispered he laid it on the table. I huffed and he took my arm and lead me to a chair, wow. Neville had changed.

'Thanks Neive.' I had called him that all last year, I didn't even think of it when I said it, until I looked at his sober face.

'A girl I knew called me that. She was a good friend.' He sat on the desk drawing circles on his knee. 'Why didn't you force us to cast the Unforgivable curses on each other?'

I smiled and patted his knee standing up, I wonder slowly to the door of my office, I motioned him inside.

'Neville. I knew that girl once. That is why I did not make you all practice on each other. InuYasha had morals, and to set against them on a friend… That would be the highest crime in her eyes.'

Neville beamed. ' You knew her. Ginny and I thought you might. You could be the one who tips the scale between the liking of InuYasha.'

I smiled down at his hand smoothed his hair, he had to know. 'Neville… I am the scale.'

He blinked, 'What?'

I took a deep breath. ' I. Am. Inu. Yasha.'

Neville's eyes narrowed, as if he thought this was a trick. ' Prove it.'

I sighed and closed my eyes, letting my disguise melt away. The was a gasped and Neville hugged my happily and laughed. 'It's you! It's YOU! It's really REALLY YOU!'

I covered his mouth and glared at him. ' Yes it's me moron! Do you want me to be discovered by the Carrows?'

He sobered up straight away, releasing me from my hug. 'And your pregnant! I knew you and Harry would mate in the end! This is perfect!' He happily rubbed my still small, but defiantly there bump. I sighed, it begins.

There was something that pissed me off though. He said perfect. But then again he didn't know a lot of things: Like how being pregnant sucked harder then anyone had ever told me, or that every moment I was away from Harry the pain got worse, or the fact that I couldn't tell him I was with child anyway because he would force me to stay behind when the real war raged, or the fact that not one but THREE crazy people wanted to kill me, who was in this world, two of them being the two darkest creatures of all time and the other a psycho bitch who was blood crazy and wanted to rip me from limb to limb who would also eat out my heart to gain immortality and rip out my unborn baby from my gut with bloody pleasure. Yeah, perfect.

' Yeah, Harry and I.' it was all I could say but was enough, Neville laughed and hugged me and kissed my stomach ( I cringed at it), like I was his goddess. I looked down at the bump. 'You're already causing a lot of trouble. Better get it out now cause your not going to be able when I can actually get my hands on you without hurting myself.'

I thought about Neville a lot that night, I remembered how he had helped me to my Herbology classes, and helped me with everything I knew. I remembered when I had just started dating Harry he asked me to Demonica, And when everyone found out about Harry and I… he treated us the warmest without any regret.

'Harry…' I whimpered out of pain and need, I was InuYasha, having locked my door. I stripped down into my underwear looked in front of the mirror.

It wasn't so bad. Nothing I couldn't hide.

I pressed my hands again my stomach, letting my magical energy's sink in. the bump disappeared. ' Ha ha ha! Take that kid!

I had spoke to soon, because as I was admiring my completely normal stomach, for the first time I fault something kicking me back. I knew what was coming next.

I felt them stretch. The first time I was standing and it hurt a lot more. The second one I was crawling in bed so it hurt a little less, the third ( Which I could have sworn hit my bones) was less painful because I was laying on my back head against the pillow. Kicks and stretches. That means it's mind is done germinating and everything else had begun to grow. This had been bad for my mother. But I was a half-demon, everything about me was intensified. So was the connection in between my baby and me. I knew this, because in my mind ( Which was normal for half-demons.) I head them for the first time.

'…Dark… It's… dark… Where…. Am I?…. Who…. Am I?'

I smiled, tears suddenly leaking up across my face. I would have to pick names now, to answer their question of "Who am I?"

I smiled rubbing my normal stomach. 'My James' Thinking of Harry. 'My Violet.' Thinking of my mothers favourite colour. ,

'So beautiful.'

'Why have you called me here Severus?' Breeanna's voice sounded bored. I was getting better at this.

'Have you seen the paper this morning?' Snape snapped, anxious.

'No. I have not. Why? And what's your problem.' I leaned being my chair. My back hurt like hell. At least I stopped throwing up though.

It had been three weeks since I got here. It was the end of May. I was now the most loved teacher in Hogwarts. Though I wore baggier clothing now so I didn't look pregnant just "Chubby".

Severus Snape threw a folded grey paper at me, with the pictures on the paper moving.

It was Gringrotts, it was destroyed. And their was a dragon flying over it. This came out a half an hour ago. And the front line yelled out to me:

"HARRY POTTER STRIKES AGAINST GRINGROTTS BANK!"

'He broke into Gringrotts vault.' I whispered my voice breaking out of Breeanna's. Snape nodded vigorously.

'Yes, and escaped on a dragon.' He escaped. Phew. 'It's so hard to keep him a-'

Snape shut his mouth, slumping into a chair like a child who had old on his best friend. The portrait of Dumbledore frowned sadly.

'Were you just about to say alive Severus Snape?' I hissed standing up crouched. I felt my cover slip as I flashed into myself. ' What is it with you? Why are you trying to keep Harry alive Death Eater?' I spit at him hissing frantically. The fires crackled higher as my phoenix self burned.

Snape drew out his wand, and raised it towards the window. There, appeared something familiar. A silver doe.

'It was you.' I whispered trying to make sense of this. 'Why?'

Snape sneered, 'Don't you remember the last time you were here?'

What? Last time. No…

A flicker of a forgotten memory. Lost in pain.

Oh! Yes!

Last time…. I was a Godric Hollow. Six by day, Adult by night. I was there the night James and Lily Potter died.

Something's wrong! I can feel it!

I stalked down the dark alleys in a black long cloak as I almost ran to Lily and James. I knew that Pettigrew was a terrible choice for a Secret-Keeper.

Their was an explosion and a giant flash of green light ahead.

I was the first on the scene. The house in ruins. I struggled into the door. I saw James laying sprawled out on the floor, glasses a foot away. Brown eyes open and staring at me.

I kissed his forehead and moved on. 'Good-bye James.'

I climbed the ruin stairs to their sons room. Lily was slumped against the crib. My moms best friend.

' Lily…' I shook her slightly for any sign of life. She slumped on the floor.

The baby started crying again, and I straightened up and picked up the crying child. ' Shh. It's okay.'

I had never seen heard a one year old scream before, but this child was terrified of me. Cringing away from me, howling and screaming. I looked over to the window. Dust and a long burned black cloak. 'Oh Kami!' I cried as I realized it wasn't me that the baby was scared of. I threw my coat away and raced outside so the baby wouldn't have to see his parents like this.

I sat in the lawn waiting for Dumbledore. I knew he would come, he had to. This was partially his fault.

I heard the motorbike before I heard Hagrid's wails.

'Hagrid' As he sobbed into the lawn, falling into the grass. I patted his enormous back. Shift the sleeping baby into one arm.

'InuYasha. Give him to me. I'm his Godfather.'

We sat in The Leaky Cauldron. I took a sip of Butterbeer not letting the sleeping child out of my arms till Hagrid, Sirus and I decided what to do.

'Yashie, Dumbledore wants him to go to the Muggles!'

Sirius growled. 'Exactly! Why would he live with Muggles while everybody in the Wizarding World will know his name!'

I looked down at the child. What child would want to be a star so early. For something so horrible.

I told Sirius so.

Sirius sighed 'I want him Yashie, he deserves a wizard family.'

I smile and shifted the baby into one hand, placing my free hand on his shoulder. ' Yes, but Sirius… He deserves to be a normal boy. Not a prince.'

Sirius nodded and Hagrid and I left, He could use my old motorbike.

'Take care of him Hagrid.' I placed him in Hagrid's arms and kissed the babies newly scared forehead. 'Keep him safe.'

Hagrid nodded and revved my bike. I watched them fly into the air… turning into a dot in the dark sky.

'Albus.'

I struggled to keep up with him as he walked down the street after dropping of the baby boy.

'Here InuYasha, this will help your nerves.' He whispered cheerfully handing me a sherbet lemon. I rolled my eyes.

'What do you need me to do now Albus? Be a spy for the boy? Watch him to make sure he's safe?'

Albus laughed quietly and stopped at the end of the street. ' Yes, but I prefer a Guardian. Not Spy. And not now, I will contact you when it is appropriate for you to safe guard my school as a student.'

'Why would he need a Guardian when Snape agreed to be his Guardian at the School. And why would the school need protecting anyway when Voldemort is dead?' I was confused beyond confusion.

' Voldemort will return. Good night Yashie. We will be in touch.'

And without another word Dumbledore Apperated.

I stood here now, confused more then ever.

I was there.
