Forced To Be A Savior

Harry took a deep breath and gulped the potion down, coughing slightly he sat down and waited... slowly a little cloud of smoke appeared in front of him and started to shift, turning into a human face...

Severus’ face.

Harry found himself crying with relief as Severus hugged him... he was so happy... probably in part due to hormones... but also because Sev was his child’s father... he’d given his mate a child...

One of Tom’s followers came into the room as they were congratulating Harry. He whispered something into Tom’s ear and Tom suddenly turned a deathly shade of white.

“Tom?” Remus asked, seeing his love’s face. “What’s wrong?”

“Harry has been summoned... by the High Court.” Tom explained and the room fell silent. “Dumbeldore has invoked an ancient law....” Suddenly Tom smirked and laughed. “He think the child is his!” Rubbing his hands together Tom smiled. “We’ll get him this time!”

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Dumbledore smiled at the High Court... he knew most of the men who sat on it and was confident that he would be taking Harry back to Hogwarts with him.

The door on the far side of the court opened and Harry walked in, followed by Severus, Remus, Sirius and Tom. Dumbledore smiled over at the group and Harry shuddered, protectivly laying a hand over his stomach.

“Headmaster Dumbeldore, if you will state why you have called us here today?” One of the Officials asked.

Dumbledore cleared his throat. “Harry Potter is a Bearer — he is pregnant with a child.... my child. Wizarding Law requires that he be given to me.”

“Has a parentity test been done?” A court member asked.

“There is no need for one!” Dumbledore laughed.

“Yes.” Severus answered for his mate. “We did a parentity test. I am the father of the child...Dumbledore kidnaped and raped my mate and tried to get away with it by quoting an ancient long forgotten law.”

“We will confirm the test.” A court member stated as a man stepped forward and waved his wand at Harry’s stomach. Harry clutched at Severus’ as a cloud of smoke appeared in front of him and slowly began to take on human form.

A gasp tore through the room when the face was finally recognized as Severus. The court’s eyes turned to Dumbledore as Harry leaned against Severus, who kissed him gently.

“Albus Dumbledore...” the head court member said, standing up as Dumbledore started to realize he was doomed... “You are charged with the rape of Harry Potter... in order to see what other crimes you have committed... you shall be questioned under Veritrisum.”

Dumbledore paled as he was held down and a vial of potion was forced down his throat. Harry suddenly stepped forward, one hand resting protectively on his stomach. “Did you and Peter Petigrew kill Lilly and James Potter?”

Dumbledore fought the potion for a few seconds.. But it was worthless. “Yes.” he said and the entire court started screaming, save for Harry, Severus, Tom, Remus and Sirius.

With a smirk on each face, they left the court... confident that Dumbledore would pay for his sins.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Harry lay in bed, panting and sweating... and squeezing the life out of Severus’ hand. Sirius and Remus stood opposite Severus, as Tom knelt by the end of the bed...

Dumbledore was in a cell at Azkaban... stripped of his magic and left as nothing more then a tired old man.

Harry was lying on his bed in Tom’s home... trying to give birth to his and Severus’ child... he struggled not to look down as Tom began to cut into his stomach. Harry couldn’t feel anything, but he knew if he looked down he would be creped out.

Tom reached into the cut he had made and slowly removed the baby. Harry smiled as the little one started to cry and Tom handed it to Remus. While Remus cleaned and wrapped the baby in a blanket, Tom closed up Harry.

Severus helped Harry to sit up as Remus handed them their new baby boy. He had Harry’s emerald green eyes and the start of black hair... his build was much like both of his fathers, delicate... “He’s so beautiful.” Harry whispered, as the little boy looked up at his parents.

Severus nodded in agreement and ran a hand down his son’s face, laughing when the boy reached out to grab one of his father’s fingers in his tiny head. “What should we call him?” he asked Harry.

Harry inspected his son, searching for inspiration. “Logan.” he whispered and the little boy shrieked in joy, reaching up for his “mommy”.

“Logan it is...” Severus smiled and leaned over to kiss Harry’ gently.

“Logan Snape.” Harry laughed as Logan yawned, nuzzling into Harry’s arms.

“Snape-Potter.” Severus corrected.
