FALLACY

Chapter Two

****



The very next morning Hermione began preparing her potion. Most of the ingredients were bought at an apothecary. The Dragons blood was shipped from Romania by Charlie Weasley at her request. All she needed now was the Venom from Professor Snape.



Making her way down to the dungeons, Hermione knocked on Snape’s classroom door. Grateful that it was a Saturday she heard him say ‘enter’ and she went into the room.



“Professor, I’m here for the Runespoor Venom, please.”



Snape looked up from the paperwork he’d been grading and sneered at her. “Top shelf left hand side.”



Hermione went to the stockroom, located the vial and took it down. Turning back to Snape she said, “Thank you, sir.”



“You have four days Miss Granger. On Tuesday at the lunch hour I expect you to be down here with the completed project. We will then test the paper at that time. Understood?”



“Yes, sir.”



“You may go.”

After four days of grueling work it was done. Hermione sat back and breathed a huge sigh if relief. The potion was done.



“Can we go back to the Common Room now?” Ron asked. He and Harry decided that they wanted to keep her company throughout the process. Two times she had to place them in a body bind to keep them from knocking her cauldron over.



The door opened with a bang that made them jump and Snape strode into the unused classroom.



“Are you finished, Miss Granger?” He ignored the two boys.



“Yes, sir, all done. It just needs the bamboo paper to soak into and five minutes after that my blood.”



Hermione was excited. Snape stepped up to the cauldron and inhaled the aroma, dipped the ladle in checking its consistency and gave a sharp nod.



“Well then, the parchment Miss Granger.”



She pulled a roll of paper out of her school bag and handed them to Snape.



“One, Miss Granger.”



She blushed at separated one paper and gave it to her professor. Snape took the paper and dropped it into the cauldron. There was a flash of smoke as the paper settled on the potion. The two of them peered into the cauldron as the paper absorbed all the potion. Once that was done Snape reached in and withdrew the Bamboo parchment.



“A drop of your blood will be sufficient Miss Granger.” He pulled out a small paring knife from his robes and handed it to her, hilt first.



Gently she pricked her finger and let a drop of blood fall onto the parchment. With bated breath they all watched as the paper seemed to sink into the parchment. Then suddenly words began to appear on the paper. None of them could believe their eyes.

“That is not right!” Ron yelled.



“You had to of done it wrong, ‘Mione.” Harry exclaimed.



“That’s not possible…” Snape breathed disbelievingly.



Hermione just stared at the paper in shock. Two things kept rolling through her head. She was adopted. She was the daughter of Bellatrix Lestrange.



In a very quiet voice the said, “It’s not wrong, the potion went perfectly.”



The three of them stared at her. She lifted her head to look Snape in the eye.



“I did it perfectly, nothing went wrong. Professor Snape, what does this mean? How can I be that… woman’s daughter? Oh great Merlin, I’m a pureblood,” she groaned, “and Malfoy’s cousin.”



Harry and Ron gaped at her again. Malfoy’s cousin?



Snape shook his head and glared at the three of them, “You will not speak a word of this to anyone, am I understood.”



Ron swallowed and nodded, Harry nodded too.



Hermione’s voice trembled, “Who would believe us anyways.”



“I’m going to check some things. The three of you will go to dinner and pretend none of this happened.” And with that said Snape strode out of the room leaving three bewildered teens behind.

Severus Snape, resident Potions Master and Head of Slytherin House stalked down the corridor towards the dungeons. His mind was in an uproar at the news he witnessed.



It couldn’t be possible. Bella lost that child. Dead and buried. But the Heritage Potion never lies.



In his private rooms he went to the fireplace and threw in some floo powder calling out, “Malfoy Manor!” then stuck his head into the flames.



On the other side of those flames was a regal sitting room richly furnished in silver and bronze. A regal woman sat on a settee embroidering. She glanced at the fireplace when she saw the fire spurt.



“Severus! What a pleasant surprise. To what do I owe this call?”



“I apologize Narcissa, but is Lucius around?”



“Of course. Kipper!” She called and a moment later a house elf appeared, “Tell the master that Master Snape has called.”



“Yes mistress.” And the elf disappeared again.



“Why don’t you come through Severus.” Narcissa asked.



“Thank you, Cissy.” His head disappeared, but then the fire flashed and his whole body appeared.



Just then Lucius walked in, “Severus, how are you? Is everything ok with Draco?”



“Draco is fine. I am not here for him. I have something else to discuss.”



Lucius poured two glasses of brandy and handed one to Snape, “Oh? What could that be.”



“How much do you remember of the night Bellatrix lost her baby?” Snape threw back the liquid in on go. It burned going down.



Lucius sat down next to his wife, “We all got there just after the mediwitch arrived. She threw us all out shortly after that when there were… complications. More than 20 hours of labor… I was a wreck with Cissy with only ten hours when Draco was born. I can’t imagine Roddy’s pain at seeing his wife go through that long of labor. Bella was catatonic for days, refusing to eat, barely slept. Rodolphus and I finally had to force nutrient potions and then a Dreamless Sleep in her. She was rail thin. She was never quite the same after that.”



“I always wondered why she was… like that…” Snape pondered his next words, “How much did you know of the Mediwitch?”



“Severus, what’s this all about?” Narcissa asked uneasily.



“Please, this is important, the mediwitch?” Snape persisted.



“Not much really, she was a midwife from St. Mungo’s. She was recommended by the Head Healer at the time, Kelston Jorgens, I believe.” Lucius ran a hand through his hair.



Snape sighed, “A student of mine came to me asking for and extra credit assignment. I gave her a potions book and told her to pick one potion. She picked the Bloodline and Heritage Potion.”



Lucius and Narcissa gave him curious looks.



“I watched as she added a drop of her own blood to the page.” He pulled the very page out of his robes. He stared at the words, possible hoping that they would change. “She did the potion correctly, there were no mistakes.” He handed the paper over to Lucius.



Husband and wife stared at the name on the page in total shock.



“This can’t be…”



TBC…
