Disclaimer:
I do not own Harry Potter, nor any of the characters from the books or movies. I do not make any money from the writing of this story.
Begining of the end.
Obviously, this was ALOT of JKR quotes. Of course... neatly shoved into my convient little story boxes.
Angel - Just so your not confused... Look at pg..458 in Deathly Hallows. For more about the scene with Bella & Fenrir in the last chapter. I think all of us have this next scene bookmarked... but just in case. Reference pg 652 Deathly Hallows.
Short I know... but I must keep events in line.
The next few weeks passed quickly, blurring until the day the Golden Trio came back to Hogwarts. Dumbledore had been right.
Harry Potter was going to defeat the Dark Lord. Hermione’s oath that held him in the protection of Potter would inevitable get him killed. Now, he had to tell Potter the truth. Except he couldn’t get to Potter.
He was going to fail Lily and proxy, Hermione. The naked pain of that realization crippled him. He had one last chance to help Potter. The snake, Nagini was with the Dark Lord.
Severus fled the school in the heat of battle to find the Dark Lord. Snape entered the room, his gaze shooting up to where Nagini was coiled in an enchanted sphere. Snape walked towards the Dark Lord cautiously.
“My Lord, their resistance is crumbling-----“
Snape began to speak, when Voldemort cut him off. “We are almost there… almost”
Snape strode over so he was positioned to the side of Nagini. He could feel his wand in his pocket but his thoughts froze as Voldemort spoke softly. “ I have a problem, Severus.”
Severus felt a rush of cold air suck into his stomach and he froze. “ My Lord?”
Voldemort raised the Elder Wand. “ Why doesn’t it work for me, Severus?”
“My ---- my lord?” Snape looked blank but inside he felt something unloosen in him. The time had come. He would be free of this cursed mortal soil soon. Hermione, he would see her soon.
Snape cleared his throat delicately. “ You have performed extraordinary things with that wand.”
Voldemort intoned patiently. “ No. I have performed my usual magic. This wand… no… it has not revealed the wonders it promised.”
Snape said nothing. He felt a peace settle inside him and he stared across at Voldemort. It was just a matter of time now.
“ It must perform for its rightful owner…I think I have the answer… I regret what must happen.”
“My Lord” Snape began.
“I am not its true master. You killed Albus Dumbledore. While you live, it can never truly be mine.”
Severus raised his wand determinedly towards the snake.
Voldemort mistaking his intentions swiped the air with the wand. The snake’s cage was rolling through the air and landed on Snape’s head and shoulders.
Voldemort spoke in parseltongue. “ Kill!”
Snape gasped as the snake’s fangs pierced his neck. Voldemort lifted the cage and Snape fell on his side onto the floor, his blood gushing thickly as Snape lay there.
“I regret it.” Voldemort said coldly and left without a backwards glance.
Severus closed his eyes and he murmured, blood bubbling up from his mouth. He had failed, to kill the snake or to save Potter. Cold pain traveled from his neck and into his chest.
He longed to see Hermione’s face one last time and was shocked when Potter crawled from under his invisibility cloak.
His eyes widened and he grabbed Potter with his last bit of strength.” Take…. It…. Take…it….”
He opened his mouth and unleashed the memory with the last of his strength. The silvery blue substance poured from him with a gasp. Potter looked about frantically when Hermione slid next to him on her knees. Tears spilt down her pale cheeks and she shoved a flask into his hands.
Snape stared up into Hermione’s eyes while Harry filled the flask to the brim. Snape gave a faint smirk suddenly, almost imperceptibly as he met Hermione’s bright, beautiful gaze, littered with tears. She was crying for him. After all this time.
Severus felt his eyes grow wet and he gasped, grabbing her hand suddenly.
“Look…..at…..me…..” he whispered demandingly, struggling with every word.
Hermione clasped Snape’s icy hand and she stared back at him, feeling something choke in her throat. For a moment she saw a young boy, handsome, dark and confidant holding himself in laughter as he looked back her lovingly.
The displaced feeling abruptly faded after a second. She held his gaze, staring into his black eyes searchingly before Snape’s hand thudded to the floor, eyes closed and Snape moved no more.
“Come on..” Harry grabbed Hermione’s hand. “ We need to go back to the castle. Now. We need a new plan…”
The golden trio ran out of the tunnels and only Hermione looked back once. Tears streaming from her eyes, feeling an inexplicable sadness fill her before she ran leaving Snape’s body behind them.
After a bloody battle and many losses, Voldemort was finally defeated by Harry Potter. Once the death eaters fell, the wizarding world became right again. The ministry was slowly rebuilt again. The death of Severus Snape was recognized as the death of a Hero Wizarding World wide. Potter and the Trio moved on and healed from the battle.
The world moved on slowly for a bit.
Except for one man.

Love ya, Rei.
