Chapter 4

A/N: Okay, I know I\'m updating really quickly, but I got 3 new reviews, and it made me so happy, I went and wrote another chapter right away (well I was distracted for a while by a balloon, but meh ^.^)! This is my fav chapter so far, It make me happy (^.^)! I also want to put out a big thank you to my 6 reviewers so far: OwaranaimonoAite, KD, Dassani, Crud, Felmyst, & Julya, and also to Amanda B (LonlyHeart) who\'s on my mailing list thing. Thanks you so much guys, you\'ve made me feel so happy, and I love you all. SO here you go:


Severus Snape found himself sitting in the headmaster\'s office, slightly out of breath after taking so many stair, not that he\'d admit that to anyone, least of all Dumbledore, meddling old man. \"Lemon drop, Severus?\" Damn that man, damn his lemon drops, and damn that damn twinkle in his eyes. That twinkle never meant anything good for Snape.

\"I am not in the mood for pleasantries, headmaster. Just get to what you want me to do.\" Oh no, Severus was under no illusions that the old man just wanted to talk, that meddling old coot wanted something from him, and he was sure it was something he wouldn\'t like. \'Probably about Potter.\'

\"Oh well, more for me then. So Severus, dear boy, how are you?\" Severus answered this with a growl and a glare. It tended to express his feelings better than words, although cursing also got his point across. \"Very well, I will get to the point. I need a favor, it has to do with Harry.\" Sometimes, Severus hated being right.

\"I expected as much. What exactly do you want now?\" It wasn\'t bad enough that Severus couldn\'t get the boy out of his head lately, now he was being forced even deeper into this problem. For only the second time in his entire life, Severus reached over the large desk in front of him and snatched on of the small lemon candies from the jar in the headmaster\'s hand. He was well aware they had calming properties, and he could really use that at the moment. He merely glared at the huge grin from the older man across from him as he popped the small candy into his mouth.

\"Well, my boy, you are one of the few who know about Harry\'s...situtation. I can\'t say that I know much more than you, only that something happened at his relatives house that pushed him into his current position. He was found almost dead just before the start of this year. Poppy confirmed that Harry had been beaten and raped, several times. When he woke up, he was furious, apparently he hadn\'t planned on returning to Hogwarts for this year. We managed to get him to continue his schooling, but he wanted his own chambers and the freedom to leave whenever he wanted.\"

Snape silently sat. So that was why Potter had gotten his own chambers. The twinkle in the headmaster\'s eyes had dimmed throughout his explaination, and Severus now saw before him a sad, tired old man. He would do his part to help Harry, if only to bring back the twinkle to Dumbledore\'s eyes. The man had practically raised him, he felt he owed it to the older man to help out. \"He didn\'t want to come back last year, so I\'m guessing he won\'t be willingly returning next year.\" Albus nodded.

\"That\'s where I need your help, Severus. I want Harry back, and I daresay he will be needed soon enough. We both know Voldemort is not truly gone, and I believe he knows it too. I need you to find out what happened and see if you can bring the real Harry back to us. Please, Severus?\" Severus knew then that this was a request, not an order. He had a choice this time, but he already knew he would do everything he could to help out.

\"I\'ll see what I can do. But I guarantee he will be finishing his schooling here, even if I have to tie him down to do it.\" Albus gave him a smile, and he\'d never admit it, but it warmed his heart. He hated to see the old coot frown, that was his job. He stood and gave a quick nod to the headmaster, then turned on his heel and left the room. Plans were already forming themselves in his head. He smirked. \'I am going to help you, Potter. And you\'re going to hate me for it.\' He chuckled softly and reutrned to his chambers, getting ready for the first phase of his plan.

A/N: Okay people! Did you like it? I did, I think it\'s so glompable! So here\'s the deal: If I get 5 more reviews, even if they\'re just \"MOO\", I\'ll write you people another chapter right away. If I get more than 5, I\'ll be uber happy, and that makes me want to write more too, so please MOO me. Oh, and anyone who wants an e-mail for when I update, please send me a request telling me which story or stories you want me to e-mail you about. My e-mail addy is Petlover_thegreat@hotmail.com. In the meantime, please review, and I love you forever.

2 More Review? Please? Chap 5 up as soon as that happens.

DO THE MOO!
