Chapter 11
-During the Summer Flashback-
Adapting to the thought that his aunt and cousin were really in tune with the magical world and had powers of their own had been hard enough but changing that thought pattern to accept that one of their confidants in said magical world was none other than the older brother of one Severus Snape was slightly harder to accept. He didn't really have much choice at this point standing outside the rather large and ornate mansion that belonged to Lance Snape, his trunk sitting idly by his feet. Petunia's claim that the older Snape would keep him safe while she and Dudley (Navin was apparently his cousin's real name) disappeared into hiding themselves. He stared at the door unsure weather or not to knock or simply keep staring. His confusion was ended when the door opened and two identical faces peered out at him, 'twins must be a common theme in pure-blood families.' he thought absently. The twins grinned,
"Wrong little bird." Said one of them his eyes sparkling, The other butt in;
"We aren't pure-blood, We had a muggle mother we did." he said with a grin staring at him intently through mismatched eyes, their right eyes were blue while the lefts were black. He looked up at the surprised and a little frightened,
"Did you...?" he began to ask but they simply grinned holding an identical finger to pursed lips, one leaned over to grab his trunk and the other pulled him inside.
"Rain Snape." said the twin carrying his trunk brushing straw colored hair from his eyes, and extending a hand, Harry shook it looking slightly lost. These bright people were related to strict, bordering on evil potion's master that he was familiar with? The yet unnamed twin snorted,
"Bordering on evil, yup that sounds like Uncle Severus." he chuckled, "I'm Mazin, Mazin Snape." he continued holding out a hand.
"Harry Potter, but I'm guessing you knew that." he replied a little despondently, looking around the beautiful house. Mazin grinned,
"Don't worry about it too much Harry." he said as they turned yet another corner this time meeting a tall man who was clearly related to the Snape he knew. Black hair that was short and wavy rather than long and greasy, their families trademark nose and those black gems rather than eyes. Harry blushed and scolded himself mentally for it,
"Did we interrupt a moment with Alon pa? Your lure is practically full blast, or is he playing hide and shag again?" Rain chimed happily from behind their dad. Said older gentleman turned around and spotted Harry abruptly the misplaced feelings of attraction disappeared.
"My apologies little nephew." he said with a guilty grin making no effort to hide his fangs, "I was not expecting you yet." he continued still looking a bit guilty. Mazin chuckled while Rain rolled his eyes,
"Well we're going to put Harry's stuff in his room, you two play nice now. We'll tell Alon that you'll be a while yet." They said in unison. Lance glared at his deplorable children with obvious affection,
"Come along Harry I'm sure you have a lot of questions." the older man said with a grin, "I'm Lance Snape, by the way, I'm sure Petunia told you." he continued as they walked to what Harry presumed to be the man's office. He nodded but offered nothing more, his thoughts were all jumbled and confused nothing made sense anymore. They sat in the tasteful office and Lance just looked Harry over,
"I see your aunt restored the glamor, do you prefer that?" he asked curiously, Harry thought about it. When aunt Petunia had helped his wings along she had also broken a very old glamor that was probably placed upon him at birth that kept him looking like James Potter. The person he really looked like was unfamiliar and confusing yet now that he knew it was there the glamor itched and was uncomfortable.
"I think I would prefer to have it off, Sir." he replied honestly. Lance smiled kindly, waving his wand Harry felt a coolness spread and the glamor was gone, revealing his real appearance and the small little wings that were little more than half a foot long at this point. Something about the wings made Harry ridiculously happy, he fluttered them flexing small muscles attached to his shoulder blades. Lance watched with a smile,
"They'll be big enough to support your weight in a few weeks." He said watching Harry's face light up,
"I can really fly with them?" he asked looking very pleased. Lance nodded taking in his nephew's true appearance. Harry eventually turned back to the vampire looking curious.
"Sir, may I ask you a question?" he said politely, and Lance grinned.
"Only if you call me Lance or Uncle, I'm far to young to be called sir." he replied, Harry smiled.
"Why did aunt Petunia send me here?" he asked looking a little ashamed, she had told him as much as she could but nothing explained why they had to be separated so soon after Harry learned that part of his family did still care for him.
"Petunia and your Mother are old friends of my family, and she knew you would need someone to help you while learning to control your new powers. Someone who would see past the boy who lived mantle." he replied carefully, it was very important that Harry trust someone here and not feel alone.
"I guess that makes sense but how would you know them?" He demanded still confused, Lance looked a tad guilty again.
"Well in all truthfulness Severus knew them first, he lived in the same neighborhood of your mother and aunt when they were children and attended school with Severus, I'm sure you knew that at least. I meat her when she was around your age, she was such a beautiful person and a very clever witch, we became fast friends as well." He replied with a smile. Harry was a little shocked His mum and Snape knew each other for that long? He sighed then, the events of the day catching up to him, and he yawned. Lance smiled standing up,
"How discourteous of me, you must be tired come I'll show you your room." he said with a smile leading the younger man back out into the maze of hallways and doors that was his mansion, once thy reached the room Harry merely flopped onto the bed and let sleep take him.
------(present)------
Harry sat beside the unconscious blond fuming, three broken ribs and a fractured arm those trolls had done a number on his poor Draco and he had been to late to prevent it. That made him irrationally angry, aware that it would be impossible for him to protect said blond the whole time they were at school made him angry enough but the rumors that were sure to spread by the next day were only going to make it worse for Draco. He sighed stroking one soft cheek,
"I'm sorry Dragon." he whispered sadly, "I couldn't protect you. But I promise, I will find a way to get rid of that cursed mark." he continued swearing that he would rescue his dragon before those fools corrupted him with the seed of death.
"After Severus has his life re-arranged of course." he murmured thinking back to the potions master's unexpected guest with a grin, leaning back in the chair and falling into another memory.
------(Four weeks into the summer, Two Weeks after Harry goes to Snape Mansion) -----
Harry sat at the grand-style piano wings folded neatly behind him, watching the young woman a little older than him play beside him. Lynn was the only one not related to Lance through some elicit marriage but had accompanied Alon when he moved in, neither really offered a real explanation to who she was, but Harry didn't mind. Her long blue-green hair was tied back in a bun-ponytail and her purple eyes were focused intently on the keys. She finished and smiled at him,
"Your turn." she declared, as he laughed he would never be as good as her but learning was something he enjoyed. They played together for a while longer but Lynn had other lessons to attend and regretfully bid him goodbye around midday. Harry decided that he would once again tryst into the overly large library and look up ... something. A book caught his eye as he entered, it was a collection of families updated by magic and blood.
He was curious, perhaps he could find out more about his mother through it, carefully following the directions he cut his finger to allow a small drop to fall onto the page, spidery lines ran across the page. Starting with him but something was off, it said Harry Potter in parentheses under another name, Eridsn Neriu, why would he have two names? One spindly line lead up to his mother Lilly Evans Neriu? The other... well that couldn't be right...No. Yet it fit, all of the hints and clues that Lance had been giving him but he didn't want to accept it. Couldn't accept it!
"Severus Snape," he read aloud from the line where his father's name should be. Merlin could his life get any stranger?
----- (Present Severus' Lab) ----
Though Severus didn't know it but his line of thought was similar to his son's when he had found out the same information. Although Severus was more ready to accept it in the form that he had received it. Staring across the room looking at the figure leaning against is desk smiling at him like nothing had happened in the years between the last time they had seen each other. Red hair with soft waves pooled around her waist where it hit the desk and those green eyes stared at him, mischief sparkling in them just like it had back then,
"Lily." He whispered as his world turned upside down.
AN: AHAHAHA! Two twists revealed in one chapter! How bout that! AND two updates within 24 hours, HOW BOUT THEM APPLES! I think this chapter makes up for the over all failing of the last two and we are finally getting into some interesting stuff. =D
Oh, hey! To any of my readers who live in the greater Boston area, (or new England area) and/or those attending the New England Fan Experience in Boston, should come see my shadow-cast group preform Repo! The Genetic Opera on friday the 13th!. =D -shameless advertising-
Make sure you read both updates. =D
