WARNING: Go back and read the first chapter.

Notes: I’m to have taken so long to update but I got depressed after I lost everything on disk, but now I’m over it. Also, I won’t be updating as often but I will try for every two weeks. My daughter just turned one and I must keep a constant eye out on her so she doesn’t leave me much time to update.

Alas, all good things must come to an end. There are at least 3 or 4 more chapters left. However, I’m not done with the lives of everyone involved. I’ve been working on a sequel if anyone is interested. Most will be centered about Harry and Draco but that is not to say our favorite Saiyan couple will not be around. They will ^_~ So, be on the look out for it once this fic is finished ^_~

Thank you all for reviewing and sending me emails to get off my @$$.

Enough of my endless chatter on with the story ^_~

Enjoy!

~oOo@oOo~

Harry kissed Draco before he and Ron went in the opposite direction to Divinations. No sooner had they parted than Harry saw his godfather and Snape.

“Ron, I’ll meet you in class. I need to talk with Remus,” he said.

The red head said nothing, nodding as he finished stuffing his mouth with a muffin.

The pair didn’t notice as Harry quietly followed them until they reached the Dark Arts classroom. The hallway was clear of students since Remus’ class didn’t start for another hour. What Harry wasn’t expecting was for Remus to reach up and caress the Potions Master tenderly on the face then pull him down for a breath taking kiss.

Harry almost gasped. He quickly turned around to go to class when he bumped into someone.

“S-sorry, I didn’t s-see you,” he stuttered trying to get away.

“Are you all right, Harry?”

“Sirius?”

He nodded his head but Harry was too shaken to have noticed.

“Why didn’t Remus tell me?” Harry whispered. He was clutching onto his book bag.

Sirius wondered what was bothering his godson until he looked past his shoulder to see Snape leaving Remus slightly crumpled. The animagus sighed. How in the hell was he going to explain this?

“Come on Har. Let’s go and talk with Remus.”

Once inside the room Remus came back to the front when heard someone. “Hello Padfoot. I was just get-” He stopped when Sirius stepped aside revealing their godson. “Harry? Shouldn’t you be in class?”

Harry remained quiet. Remus studied him. The air around them was charging with magic. It could only mean one thing: Harry was upset.

Remus backed away from Harry, instantly on his guard when the teen didn’t answer.

“How could you keep something this important from me?” Harry demanded, clenching his fist at his side. The weapons around the room rattled. “And you?!” Harry turned on Sirius. “You obviously knew about them and yet you said nothing!”

“Har-Harry it wasn’t my place to tell you,” Sirius said, praying to god that his godson didn’t explode, because if he did they would be good as dead.

“Harry listen to me, Severus and I are married-” Remus blurted out, only to have Harry’s ire ignite further, causing one of the windows to shatter above them. Harry was mad. The Marauders looked at each other then back to Harry. Only one thought passed through their minds: they were in trouble.

~*~*~

Severus was walking up and down the rows of tables carefully inspecting his Second years’ cauldrons when he stumbled. His hands became clammy. He straightened up only to be bombarded with a strong emotion – Fear – but it wasn’t his own. He quickly fled the room, hoping he wasn’t too late.

~*~*~

-At the same time

A collective gasp sounded in the Muggle Studies room as all eyes turned to the blonde Slytherin. Draco was emitting a silver glow.

“Are you feeling all right, Mr. Malfoy?” the teacher asked, concerned. Draco looked as if he was ready to bolt from the room.

“May I please be excused, Professor?”

“Not until you give a good reason,” she argued.

Draco’s eyes flared to life as the glow around him intensified. He clearly saw fear in his teacher’s eyes. He didn’t even wait for permission once he felt the power surge. He cursed his professor for being stupid. She was going to cause someone to get hurt by delaying him. He just prayed that whomever Harry was mad at could keep him calm until he got there.

~oOo@oOo~

-Inside the Dark Arts classroom

“Please Harry, why don’t we sit down and talk about this?” Remus pleaded.

“Why?! So, you can lie to me again? I don’t need any protection. All my life I’ve been lied to. Been told that I was worthless; that I should have died right along side my parents. What I need is someone who’s going to be truthful to me!” Harry vented.

The floor quaked Harry took a step toward his godfathers. Loud banging on the door startled the Gryffindor for a moment making the vibrations ease slightly.

“REMUS! REMUS, OPEN THIS DOOR!” It was Severus.

“Tell me the story behind Snape,” Harry demanded.

“Harry we need for you to calm down,” Sirius pleaded. He turned his head and hissed to his friend, “Moony, start talking or our asses are done for.”

“I am calm dammit!” Another window broke from his outburst.

~ Flashback ~

[Meet me by the lake at midnight. Come alone.]

Severus almost smiled as he recognized the neat flowing penmanship. He had a rendezvous with his werewolf lover.

When Severus arrived at the appointed time he was surprised to find his mate standing in ceremonial robes, surrounded by Black, Malfoy, McGonagall and Dumbledore.

The Potions professor struggled to tear his gaze away from his smiling lover when Dumbledore greeted him with alarmingly glittering cerulean eyes. “Come my boy, we don’t have much time,” Albus said, leading him over to where Lucius was standing.

“To do what?”

“Why. . .your binding ceremony of course,” the Headmaster beamed, stars twinkling in his eyes, literally.

Severus looked at the werewolf. Remus’ eyes glowed brightly under the moonless sky as if they could lead them through any dark place on earth. His mate wanted to bond himself to him? It was more than he dared hope for – and everything he wanted.

“I’m not wearing the appropriate attire, Albus,” he said after turning his attention back to his mentor.

At this point his childhood friend approached him. “I have taken care of it Severus,” Lucius replied, as he presented Snape with a formal dress robe.

“What are you doing here, Lucius?” he asked, curious as to why the older Malfoy would jeopardize his cover by being here.

“As much as I detest being here, Dumbledore requested my presence. It seems that I am required as a witness as one of your closest friends,” Lucius stated as he led the professor away to change.

“Severus, why you didn’t tell me that you had acquired a lover - and a werewolf at that?”

Lucius raised a delicate pale eyebrow when Snape thinned out his lips as he considered his response.

“Lucius, need I remind you of reason why I choose to keep my private life, private?” Severus paused for effect. “Besides, you wouldn’t understand even if I told you,” Snape continued as he removed his school robes to change into emerald and silver ones.

“Does it have to do with you being a Saiyan?”

Severus almost ripped the sleeve. “How did you know?”

Lucius smiled. It was very rare that the senior Malfoy would allow someone to see straight shiny white teeth. “Vegeta told me...” he paused, “...actually you did.”

Severus was confused by the answer and looked at him questioningly.

“When You-Know-Who had you and Vegeta captive, your tail came out from its’ hiding place,” replied Lucius as they walked back to join the others.

Said tail chose that moment to make itself known, waving in front of inky black eyes. Severus grabbed his tail and bit back a groan from the sensual contact. /Rem, better be prepared for a night of sex after this/ Snape mentally moaned.

By the stroke of twelve Severus and Remus were bound.

~ End flashback ~

The pounding on the door ceased. The door was ripped from its’ hinges, but Snape still couldn’t pass through the entryway. Another explosion brought down the walls of the room as Severus destroyed the stones outside.

Draco came at a run and saw the faint golden glow around his godfather’s wand.

“Move Uncle Sev,” he said, pushing a furious Snape out of the way. “Harry is keeping you out with his magic. I doubt if even Vegeta and Goku could get through.”

The younger Malfoy didn’t bother with his wand. He held out his hand, waving it around, mimicking the motions of a wand. The magical barrier rippled as silver streams of waves entwined with the emerald shield. Once the field dissipated both teacher and student rushed inside the half demolished room.

The Potions professor moved in front of his mate to protect him from Harry. Draco took his fiancée’s hands, trying to make Harry concentrate on him.

“Harry, I’m here. Focus on me Harry,” Draco said calmly, while rubbing soothing circles on the other boy’s hands.

The young Gryffindor looked into flaming metallic eyes. “Dray?”

“Yes, love, I’m here.”

Harry threw his arms around the blonde and started crying into his shoulder. However, tears were not enough to calm the newly arrived teacher.

“What the bloody hell were you thinking, Potter?!!” Snape shouted.

Harry raised his head. “I’m sorry professor. I was upset.”

“Upset my ass-” Snape was cut-off mid-vent.

“I’m all right, Sev.”

“That’s not the point Rem. The point *is* your godson could have seriously injured you in his childish fit of rage. He might have made you miscarry.”

“Sev, that’s enough,” Remus whispered when Draco and Harry gasped at the news.

“Your-your pregnant?” Harry asked, regretting his outburst.

“I. . .we were going to tell you and Draco, but we decided to wait just in case our appeal is denied,” Remus explained.

“What appeal?” Draco asked his godfather, continuing to stroke Harry’s back.

Severus told them about the Ministry’s order and the appeal. He explained that their chances were not good and they might lose the fight. One of the reasons they might get turned down was because of Severus’ suspicious involvement with He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named.

Harry was shaking and apologizing as he realized what he might have done.

“Don’t’ worry about it Harry - you didn’t know,” Remus reassured him.

“I could have killed your child, Remus!” Harry exclaimed.

“Litter,” Remus corrected.

“Wh-what did you say?” Harry wasn’t sure if he had heard his godfather right.

“We’re having a litter. I’m carrying triplets.”

Harry whimpered. “Oh, dear god, Remus.” He was upsetting himself all over again.

“We would appreciate it if you would keep this bit of information to yourself,” Severus interjected in his silky voice. Remus shivered from the tone.

“Why don’t you and Draco go back to class, Harry. You and Remus can discuss this later,” Sirius said.

Once the boys were gone, Sirius went to his office to give his friend and mate some time alone, but not before he repaired the damage Harry and Snape caused.

“Are you sure you’re all right, Rem?”

“Yes, love, I’m fine.” Remus ran his hand protectively over the small mound of his stomach. Severus placed his hands on top of his husband’s while bending to give him a kiss on the side of his mouth.

Soon the tender kisses became long and lingering. Severus cupped Remus’ face with both of hands trailing his tongue down his neck stopping at the bite mark at the base.

The Saiyan-wizard wanted to take his mate right there on the desk in the classroom. He wanted to hear Remus call out his name in the height of passion and see his golden orbs lit with lust and desire.

Without any warning Severus bit into the delicate skin reopening the wound. Remus sucked up air as best as he could when he felt the sharp canines puncture his flesh. He clutched his mate’s arms as stars danced across his vision.

He didn’t know if he could hold out until later in the evening to be with his husband. He needed him now. His member ached so badly - he needed contact. Remus arched his back and pressed himself against Severus’ hardened penis.

Before he realized what he was doing, the Potions Master ground his hips to get more fiction. He suddenly pulled away from the tempting, needy body that was sprawled on the desk.

Remus’ lustful gaze was unfocused as the blood flow slowed from the wound on his neck. Severus wiped his mouth clean of tangy crimson nectar. He had almost lost complete control. He turned to leave but was held back as Remus captured his swollen lips once more.

The bell rang signaling the end of classes. Severus cursed as he had forgotten about his class of Second year students. “Meet me in our room at lunch time,” he said to Remus, quickly turning with a swirl of his black robe, leaving a frustrated werewolf.

Sirius ended up teaching Defense Against the Dark Arts with just Trunks and Goku. Remus never returned to class after lunch, nor did Severus.

~oOo@oOo~

The next day during breakfast all eyes were on Professor Snape. The Headmaster was grinning from ear to ear. Minerva couldn’t look in his direction. A dark blush was burning brightly on Professors Sprout and Trelawney faces. Madame Pomfrey gave him a look that read ‘that’s why your husband is in the condition he is in now.’

The rest of the staff kept their heads bowed. Albus even had the nerve to lift his glass to him.

Snape casually sipped on a cup of pumpkin juice, ignoring his co-workers behavior. He was willing his headache to go away, as well as all the other aches and pains that went along with yesterday’s romp with his mate that began with his lunch date and continued late into the night.

/I need to make a stronger headache relief potion/ he thought. The only down side to being a Saiyan was that it took a while before his natural healing ability kicked in. Both he and Remus gave into their animalistic instincts, wrecking their room in their wild sexual escapade.

Vegeta and Goku were smiling at him (well Goku anyway, Vegeta just smirked). The Saiyan prince leaned over to whisper in his ear, “It would be a good idea if we worked on you shielding your emotions from the rest of the population.”

“What are you babbling about?” Severus raised an eyebrow. It was way too early in the morning to try and figure out the arrogant prince.

Vegeta straightened up. The smirk never left his face as he waited until Snape was taking another sip of juice to say, “You and your Wolf drove everyone insane with all the sex you two were having last night.”

Severus sprayed juice everywhere.

Vegeta continued, “You have to realize that as a telepath not only can you read minds, but you can also project. Whatever caused you to lose control over your powers manifested in your projecting telepathic ability.

“Do us and the rest of the school a favor. . .next time keep all mental images of you and your Wolf having sex to yourself.”

It was a good thing Snape didn’t blush easily or else he would be flaming beet red by now. “I’ll try to remember that next time,” Severus replied as he opened his morning paper.

Upon reading the front page he froze. “Oh, shit!”

Just then a very tired looking Remus walked in with Sirius bringing up the rear. Remus felt all eyes on him as he took his seat next to Severus. He leaned over toward his mate.

“Sev?”

“You better read this, Rem,” Severus said. Before Remus could ask his question he pushed the wizarding newspaper over to him.

Remus unfolded the copy of the Daily Prophet. He gasped at the headline:

WEREWOLF PREGNANT WITH ALLEDGED DEATH EATER’S CHILD

~ TBC~

A/N: Yeah, I know. I was going to write more but decided to save the rest for the next part. I couldn’t bring myself to type up all fifteen pages considering I just got over my shock of losing everything.

Well, tell me what you think. Now, you know why everyone was staring at Severus and Remus besides the obvious. Any comments and suggestion are welcomed ^_~

Teaser Chapter 14 part b: When did it happen?

Severus moved in front of his mate. “What is he doing here?!” Growling at Fudge.

“I’m afraid I have some unsettling news,” the Headmaster answered.

“Severus Snape you are hereby under arrest,” Fudge announced as the Aurors placed restraining charms on him.

WARNING: Go back and read the first chapter.

Notes: For those who missed how the Daily Prophet found out about Remus being pregnant please go back to chapter 17: Would you believe if I told you?

I would like to thank all of you reviewing the last chapter. Also hail to the Pixel Goddess for doing a fantastic job of making my writing looking so! Thanks PG ^_~

Enough of my endless chatter on with the story ^_~

Enjoy!

~oOo@oOo~

Remus unfolded the copy of the Daily Prophet. He gasped at the headline and featured article.

WEREWOLF PREGNANT WITH ALLEDGED DEATH EATER’S CHILD

Registered werewolf, Remus J. Lupin, is pregnant by notorious Potions Master Severus Snape, sources have revealed. The couple, both professors at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, have been married for over two months.

Werewolves can produce litters up to six pups. It is unknown at this time how many pups Snape and Lupin are expecting. Lupin is a direct descendant to the infamous dark wizard, Derrius DeLongpre. DeLongpre bore several offspring with his husband, Remigius DeLouis.

The Ministry has questioned Snape about his ties to You-Know-Who in the past. Their probe was inconclusive.

The question remains: Will the couple be allowed to continue with the pregnancy? Sebastian Stonewall of Family Planning says, “We will neither confirm nor deny the accusation that has been brought to our attention regarding Mr. Snape. We are currently investigating this matter.”

If the ministry does find any truth to the allegations, Snape could either face life in Azkaban prison or receive the Dementor’s Kiss. Lupin would be required to terminate his pregnancy since the law prohibits werewolves from raising their young without their mates because of the potential of aggression and violence. More to come as this story develops.

~Rita Skeeter

“Oh, god!” Remus cried out, then doubled over in pain.

Madam Pomfrey was immediately at his side, almost knocking Severus out of the way when he moved to catch his falling mate. As Remus went down he felt as if he was falling into a long dark well. He heard his name being called but it sounded so far away. Everything around him was getting dimmer until darkness claimed him.

~*~*~

The Gryffindors scrambled to follow when they saw their Potions Professor carry his husband toward the infirmary. None of them could fathom the information that was in the Daily Prophet. Until last night, they had never suspected anything was going on between the professors. Memories of last night’s euphoria and images removed any doubt they might have about the teachers’ relationship.

Harry and his friends were told to wait outside. Harry somehow knew that this was his fault. He was quite certain that Rita Skeeter had loads of information on him and Draco, and the only thing that was saving them from it being printed was the gag order placed by the Ministry back in his Fourth year.

He turned to Sirius crying. He just wanted a simple normal life - but no. He just had to be the Boy-Who-Fucking-Lived.

~oOo@oOo~

Soft cooing filled the nursery. Vegeta had slept for two days - waking only to make sure that his daughter was safe. He climbed out of bed and walked into the adjoining room to see his mate pacing back and forth with their little one. Vegeta couldn’t help but smile at the Father and daughter pair.

Bright onyx orbs looked lovingly into tired ones.

“Good morning koi! Did you sleep well?” Kakarott asked, carefully placing their daughter in her bassinet.

“Did you get enough rest, Geta?”

“I am rested. I’m going to take a walk.” Vegeta had been a bit weary after shielding himself from Snape and Remus’ zealous romp. Trying to help Severus control his telepathic projection had drained him. Now he was up and about.

Kakarott turned concerned eyes on his lover.

“Don’t worry Kakarott I will be back before you know it.”

Vegeta reached up giving his mate a kiss. Tails wrapped securely around each other, never wanting to let go. After ending the kiss the Saiyan royal peered in on his little ouja. Small pink lips were parted as a tiny fist found its’ way in the toothless mouth, giving comfort.

The auburn appendage caressed smooth flawless skin. Vegeta left his child in the care of his mate. He had business elsewhere.

Vegeta left the tower heading for the stone griffin. He didn’t tell Kakarott the real reason why he needed to leave. The prince knew that something was wrong. He could smell it in the air.

~oOo@oOo~

Once Vegeta stepped off the spiral staircase he heard raised voices on the other side of the door.

“…and I’m telling you Albus that he was no good from the very start!”

“I’m sorry that you feel this way but you have no proof of what you accuse Severus of.”

But they were interrupted when Vegeta walked in.

“I hope am disturbing something,” the Saiyan said.

“Who the devil are you?”

“Someone you should show a little more respect to,” Vegeta answered folding his arms over his compact chest.

“Cornelius, this is *Prince* Vegeta. He is one of a handful of survivors from Vegetasei. Prince Vegeta, this is Minister Cornelius Fudge, Ministry of Magic.”

Fudge got up to shake Vegeta’s hand but was brushed aside by the royal. The wizard realized his mistake too late by insulting the blue-blooded Saiyan. He sat back down, taking in the familiar visage from the past. /So this is King Vegeta’s son. I wonder why he’s here?/

“Prince Vegeta how are you feeling today?” the Headmaster inquired.

“Fine.”

“And Shigeta? I trust that she’s not too much of a handful.”

“Ille. Kakarott has been tending to her needs since I’m now past the over protective bonding stage.”

“Who are Shenga and Catarock?” Fudge asked, trying to recall the names he heard.

Vegeta shot him a disdainful glare. Fudge almost melted under the burning gaze.

“Shigeta is my new born daughter and Kakarott is my mate,” Vegeta replied.

He bared his fangs to the oversize balding wizard letting him know not to ask stupid questions again. Dumbledore barely kept his chuckle to himself. Vegeta inclined his head to greet the Headmistress. Minerva slightly raised her tea cup to acknowledge him.

“So, Vegeta what can we do for you?” Dumbledore launched straight into why the Saiyan was there.

“It’s about Snape. Whatever you have planned for him I highly advise against it.”

“You have no authority here!” Fudge jumped up.

Vegeta’s tail tightened around his once again slender waist. “Taking him from his mate will be highly stupid on your part. Obviously, you don’t care what happens to the children of this school.”

“Look as far as I know Snape is single. Who in their right mind would want to anchor themselves to him? You can’t believe every thing you read in the Prophet.”

“Listen, you sorry ass excuse for a wizard! There are some things you don’t know about the Professor.” Vegeta looked back to Dumbledore. “If you don’t want a blood bath on your hands you will heed my warning. Neither Kakarott or I would be able to-”

“What the bloody hell are you talking about? Albus, surely you don’t-”

“Snape is an Alpha male. No one - and I mean no one - will able to control him other than the Wolf if he goes ‘ape’. Snape is highly volatile. The Wolf is in too weak of a state to keep him from blowing everything to pieces.”

Vegeta was getting frustrated because Fudge was being a complete and utter jerk.

“What does Professor Lupin have to do with this?” Fudge said.

“Maybe we should tell him, Albus,” Minerva spoke-up.

“Very well, my dear. Prince Vegeta, perhaps we will see you later?” Dumbledore peered over his wire-rimmed glasses. Vegeta smirked knowingly. He simply got up and left them to discuss Snape in detail.

~oOo@oOo~

No one was allowed in Remus’ room, including the Trio and Draco. Madame Pomfrey made it perfectly clear to those who were waiting to leave her in peace to work. The gang decided to have lunch in the tower since Defense Against the Dark Arts was cancelled.

Sirius had not returned from his last minute mission. There were reports about Voldemort regrouping in Greece after Vegeta went Oozaru, destroying his main base of operations. The animagus needed to find any information on the Dark Lord’s whereabouts.

So now the teens were trying to occupy their free period. They didn’t bother checking up on Goku or the baby. Vegeta made sure to keep all of them away. Bulma was in the infirmary assisting Pomfrey and Trunks was taking advantage of the unused DA classroom to train.

Harry was lounging on his bed reading his Saiyan textbook.

{A Super Saiyan is born once every three thousand years. It is also at the same time a Saiyan Pure of Heart is born. This Saiyan posses the ability to Heal. However, this ability will only work if the one who is being treated ‘pure’ light remains true. Although, no Saiyan of such power has been documented in recent years, there has been evidence of one existing long ago.

Ancient manuscripts describe the mythical Saiyan as lively and carefree, gentle in temperament. Legend also suggests that he or she has a gift for being a child of nature. Again this does not follow normal Saiyan traits…}

“Time for class, love,” Draco shouted from downstairs.

“Yeah, coming!” Harry closed his book sliding off the bed. He grabbed his bag hurrying after his fiancée.

~oOo@oOo~

Strange how Fate sometimes works, playing with people’s lives, not caring for the consequences. Most people would rather believe in Lady Luck than believe in a Higher Power. Severus Snape knew better than most that Fate always played an ill hand before revealing their true purpose. He sat silently in the room while the matron examined her patient.

Madame Pomfrey sighed. There was no change in Remus’ condition.

“Severus, you should get some rest,” Poppy offered.

“No, I will not leave him.” Severus was not abandoning his husband for a few moments of sleep.

“You will not be any good to him if you’re dead on your feet.”

“I will be fine,” he contended.

Poppy huffed and left. She was tempted to cast a spell to make the stubborn professor to leave but she didn’t want to suffer his wrath afterwards.

Severus pressed gentle lips upon his lover’s warm ones while he placed a hand on top of Remus’ visible bulge. Severus lingered on the round area with his hand feeling the three separate beings within his mate. He was startled from his concentration when he heard; “If you keep tickling me like that I swear I’ll pull pranks on you for a week.”

The Potions Master stared disbelieving into lidded golden orbs.

“Rem, are you…”

“Fine, love. Tired but fine,” Remus answered.

“Poppy was just in here. Let me go get her.” Snape made ready to fetch the mediwitch but Remus’ voice stopped him.

“Get her later - better yet - get her tomorrow. I’m going back to sleep, and I want you to do the same.”

“I’m not leaving you here so don’t ask me again.”

“Sev, please.”

“Not another word, Remus. Do you know how fucking scared I was when you collapsed?” Severus held on to his lover’s hand, massaging it. “If anything ever happened to you I would…I couldn’t live without you. My Saiyan bond wouldn’t let me survive without you.” Severus came close to tears as he remembered Remus falling over backwards.

Remus gathered him in his arms as best as his stomach would allow. “I’m sorry love. I didn’t know.”

They stayed in each other’s arm until someone walked in on them. They broke apart once the Headmaster’s voice rang out.

“Good evening, gentlemen. I trust you are faring better, Remus?” Dumbledore asked.

“Yes, sir,” Remus smiled somewhat tiredly.

Severus unconsciously moved in front of him when three other men walked in behind the elder wizard.

Snape growled, “What is he doing here, Albus?”

Dumbledore’s face was expressionless and for the first time in all the years that Severus had known him there was no twinkle to his cobalt eyes.

“I’m afraid that I bring some rather unsettling news, my child,” he said but the object of his anger interrupted his explanation.

“Severus Snape you are under arrest for Death Eater activity and for supporting You-Know-Who with illegally brewed Dark Arts potions.”

The Aurors held onto Snape while Fudge removed his wand from inside of his prisoner’s robes.

“You cannot be serious!” he shouted.

Fudge smirked triumphantly, ignoring the Potions Master. He moved over to Remus. Snape snarled as the Aurors tried to restrain him.

“STAY AWAY FROM HIM!”

“Remus J. Lupin-Snape, you are hereby ordered to terminate your pregnancy,” Fudge declared with some satisfaction.

Remus was in tears. Dumbledore was at his side giving comfort. Snape ceased his struggles. They were going to lose their children because of him! Damn, Voldemort! Damn him to the nine pits of hell.

“What’s all this racket? Remus-” Pomfrey came in when she heard Snape bellowing to the top of his lungs. She checked the werewolf over. He was ever paler than from the last time she saw him. “All right I want everyone out. My patient needs his rest,” she ordered not caring who was in the room.

The Aurors were heading out of the door with their prisoner when Snape flipped backwards twisting their arms. He quickly turned, “Accio wand!”

Fudge couldn’t hold onto it. The 12” mahogany wand flew out of the Minister’s fingers and landed in the outstretched hand of its master.

“Expellimus!”

The Minister was not as quick as the Potions professor. Severus cast another charm, “Wingardium leviosa.” His target levitated off the floor.

“SNAPE!!!” Fudge bellowed, shocked.

“It’s one thing to arrest me but it’s another to threaten my husband.” Snape removed a pouch from his inside robe pocket. He sprinkled the white powdery contents into his hand and blew it at Fudge. Within seconds the Minister was knocked out.

One of the Aurors tried to sneak behind the teacher but Severus heard him. He snapped his elbow back connecting to the Aurors face breaking his nose and knocking him unconscious. Snape then aimed his wand at the other one. “Don’t even think about it.” He blew the remaining powder at the short official effectively putting him to sleep.

Dumbledore stayed by Remus, shielding him from any spells or curses that might fly their way. He was delighted how his ‘son’ was showing his protectiveness for his mate. Yes, indeed everything was working out perfectly.

~ TBC ~

A/N: Go Snape! It seems that Dumbledore is up to something again and that may involve at certain Saiyan prince. Hmm although I can’t imagine what it is. Stay tuned and find out in the next chapter. Tell me what you think. Your comments and suggestions are welcomed.

Teaser for Chapter 15: No way out

“Search the rooms Snape is around here somewhere,” Fudge ordered. “Look for the werewolf too.”

“I won’t let you hurt my godfather!” Harry stood with Draco drawing their wands simultaneously. They moved as one focusing on their intended targets: Fudge and the Aurors.
