The Family Ties that Bind

Chapter 12- Discovered

The rest of the month seemed to fly by. Pansy and Lucius were both tried and sentenced to the Dementor’s Kiss. Hermione and Draco both insisted on watching Lucius receive the kiss. Hermione needed to see that the man who had murdered her mother was killed and Draco needed closer as well for the death of his mother.

October started out cool and wet. Every other day it seemed to be raining. Hermione and Draco continued their lives as normal. Without the threat of Lucius over their heads, everything seemed fine.

“So, have you two set a date for the wedding?” Harry asked as they sat in the Gryffindor common room studying.

“Yes, March 15th. The same date my parents got married.” Hermione answered.

“I never knew Snape was married.” Ron said.

“Yes, but Lucius killed my mother. Now, I think my father has closure at last.” hermione said.

“Next weekend’s the first Hogsmeade trip. I can’t wait.” Draco said, changing the subject.

“I know. I need to restock my sweets.” Ron replied.

“I thought you had enough? After all, in Diagon Alley you nearly bought the whole store.” Harry laughed.

“Well, with Draco getting hurt, the near attack on Hermione and the trials, I’ve been eating more than usual.” Ron answered.

“It’s a wonder you can even get your broom off the ground.” Draco added with a smile.

Everyone began laughing. The week flew by. The day of the Hogsmeade trip dawned clear and windy. Hermione, Draco, Ron, Harry and Ginny made their way to the village. The group was laughing and joking as they walked into the village. Harry and Ron headed for Zonko’s and Honeydukes while Hermione, Draco and Ginny headed for the book shop. Ginny headed off for the charms section while Draco and Hermione made their way to the potions section. Back at Hogwarts, things weren’t so good.

“Damn!” Severus hissed.

“What is it my boy?” Albus asked.

“I’m being summoned. Watch over them till I return.” Severus said.

Severus flooed to his rooms, grabbed his Deatheater robes and mask and hurried away. Two minutes later Severus arrived at the meeting. He and a few others who arrived at the same time, knelt at Voldemort’s feet and kissed the hem of his robes then took their place in the circle of Deatheaters.

“My followers. We have all heard of the unfortunate demise of Lucius. It has also come to my attention that one of here has betrayed us. And has been spying on us for the past sixteen years.” Voldemort said.

‘FUCK! HE KNOWS!’ Severus thought as the others around him began to whisper at this news.

“Severus! Step foreword.” Voldemort ordered.

Severus had no choice. He stepped foreword and knelt before Voldemort. His last thoughts were on Hermione and Draco. Praying they would be safe and that they had a long happy life.

“CURICO!” Voldemort screamed.

Severus fell to the ground, writhing in pain. Never letting out so much as a squeak. For five minutes Voldemort left him under the curse. When he released Severus Wormtail stepped up and began hitting, kicking and even stabbing Severus with a dagger. Ten minutes later, Voldemort stepped back into Severus’s line of sight.

“No fight? Not even for your precious daughter? Hmm? I’m sure I could get her to join me. Perhaps even let some of the others play with her for a while.” Voldemort said.

That was it. Severus felt a rage rush over him. Ten times worse than the rage he had felt toward Lucius. He grabbed his wand yelled the Curtatious Curse at Voldemort and apparated away.

“My Lord!” Wormtail squeaked as he hurried to his master.

“Ha! Ha! Ha! I didn’t think he had it in him.” Voldemort whispered as he got to his feet slowly.

“Shall I go after him?” Bellatrix LeStrange asked.

“No. By the time he gets back to Dumbledore he will be dead, or close to it. By the time he’s actually found, he will no longer be a problem.” Voldemort answered.

Severus apparated just outside the gates of Hogwarts grounds. He lay on the ground, gasping for air, bleeding everywhere it seemed. He knew it would be hours before anyone found him. He only hoped that Hermione and Draco would remain safe. Then everything went black.
