Chapter 3: The Lake

As the light faded, muffles of cries could be heard, Severus Snape jump to his feet to investigate. He looked around the room then made his way towards his door. As he past the last table he saw a figure lying on the floor in a small ball crying. He run to its side and kneeled down beside it.

"Oh gods, its Hermione Granger!'

"Hermione?" Snape said firmly, while reaching out to touch her.

She did not respond, so he lightly touched her, "Hermione are you ok?"

He stood up and looked around the room once again and stepped out into the hall to see if the criminal was still there, but there was no sign of anyone or anything but Hermione laying on his floor. He walked back to her and once again kneeled down to her.

"Hermione, it's ok, they left."

All she did was cry. For the first time in his life he wanted to help her. Her finally scoped her up into his arms and carried her towards his private chambers. She took to him and buried her head into his chest sobbing. Severus felt warm inside at the fact that she was accepting him. Once Severus reached his private chambers, he laid Hermione on his bed. He looked over her angelic body for any cuts, he found a few and simply cast a healing spell over her.

"Hermione, please say something so I know that you are ok and not dieing." He said while making tea for them.

"It was Percy," she said through her sobs.

He turned to her and watched her curl up into a protected ball.

"Oh gods, what has he done to her.' He walked to his bed and sat down next to her.

"Hermione, can you tell me what he did to you?"

She began to cry a little louder as she moved to the center of the bed with her face buried into one of his pillows. He rubbed her back trying to confront her, while moving fully onto the bed. He kicked his shoes off, as he lend up against his headboard. He pulled his school robes off and throw it to a chair across the room. He was wearing a black shirt and pants, he reached over to Hermione and helped her out of her weekend robes revealing a purple shirt and blue jeans. To his surprise Hermione moved towards him and placed her head onto his chest, while wrapping her arms around his waist for protection.

Severus did not protest at her actions and placed his strong arms around her delicate body. For what seem like forever Snape could feel Hermione finally relax and could no longer hear her crying. He looked down at her and saw she was asleep. He then slowly, so not to wake he, side himself down the headboard to where he was laying properly in bed. He picked up his wand from the table next to his bed and waved it in the air. The room darken and he replaced hind tnd to its resting place and pulled the covers over their bodies. He lend down and kissed her forehead softly.

"Good night Hermione," he whispered and fell into a dreamless sleep.


*******Percy Perspective*******

Walking back to his room, Percy's thoughts were beating him up.

"The Dark Lord will not be happy with me. I let her go and to the one person who can screw everything up for my master.'

Percy did not end up back in his room, instead he was looking out onto the lake, he was waiting for someone.

However, what percy did not realize was he was being watched.

A dark figure approched Percy, "Did you get her?", the voice growled.

Percy fell to the ground as if to kiss the dark figures feet.

"No my master, she ran."

The Dark Lord kicked him, "And why didn't you go after her?"

Catching his breath "I did my Lord, but she went some where I would have never image her to go."

"And where was that!", he growled.PercPercy could tell he eas getting annoyed with him.

"To Professor Severus Snape sir."

The figure smiled, "Not to worry then, she is practially in my hands."

The Dark Lord pulled out his wand and aimed it at Percy, he was choking him and laughing.

"you better be glad that I am about to clean up the mess you left, I will give you one LAST change, don't screw it up or, your life is mine. I will truly enjoy that."

He let Percy go and was laughing an evil laugh that made Percy's hair stand up on the back on his neck.

With that he disappeared and Percy was trying to breath again while geting up and headed for bed.

The person watching percy steped away from the window and sat down to think of what to do.

A/N: I know it isn't much and I am sorry, I promise MORE later. I hope you enjoyed it and now understand Percy's state of mind. Please R&R anything, everything is welcome. Thanks you guys!1 Love YA ~ Star Fire
