Chapter 7 - The Cure

In a castle, very far away from Hogwarts, a snake like man gasped in pain, as a sudden shockwave of magical power hit him through the bond he shared with one Harry James Potter, his mortal enemy.

Screaming in rage he crucioed his latest victim to death, before marching out of the throne room with a swish of his robes, not quite as dramatically as Severus but not far off.

Said boy awoke screaming in agony as his scar split open, seeing Voldemort crucio someone was enough to give him the headache of a lifetime.

Blaise awoke next to him knowing instantly what was wrong due to their conversations last year, he wrapped his arms around his boyfriend offering comfort.

In a forest many miles away a man was running for his very life, he was running from a pack of rabid werewolves who were intent on ripping him apart, it was the middle of the night and the full moon was high in the sky. The man tripped and stumbled off of the cliff into the river below.

Surfacing and gasping for air he attempted to swim to the bank, alas the current of the river was too strong and he was swept many many miles down it, until finally he was washed up onto a banking near an ancient looking cavern with runes etched into it.

Spluttering the man slowly made his way to his feet and looked about, noticing the cavern he made his way into it. There was a huge roar and instantly the man fell down, dead.

Inside the cavern a small crystal glowed absorbing the life force of the man, before the glow died down, the face of the man could be seen in the crystal.

Somewhere inside Hogwarts several rooms were making a reappearance, some of these rooms were old classrooms for subjects long forgotten. With a resounding crack one particular classroom appeared right where the divination classroom should be but no longer was.

Severus Snape was down in his private lab putting the finishing touches to the experimental potion he had created, he planned to test it out that very day as the following day would bring the full moon.

Stalking over to his large fireplace he threw a handful of floo powder into it, stepping in he called out his destination. “Number 12 grimuald place”.

Appearing in the kitchen of said house he immediately set out in search for one Remus Lupin, swiftly stalking up the staircase he found him milling in the library.

Startled Remus looked up in surprise at Severus before greeting him candidly. “What brings you here”? He asked.

Severus sneered slightly, “I came to give you this”, he pulled out the potion. “It's not Wolfsbane, however I am hopeful that it may cure your furry little ailment once and for all”.

Remus was so shocked he forgot himself for a moment before taking the vial from the mans hand, hesitating only slightly he gulped it down. Frowning he was about to indicate he felt no difference when all of a sudden he felt a sharp pain, crying out he collapsed.

Severus sighed at the wolf and used his wand to levitate him to his room where he unceremoniously dropped him onto his bed, before twirling around and stalking back to the kitchen, his robes billowing out dramatically.

Upon reaching the kitchen he once more threw the floo powder into the fireplace before stepping in and returning to his quarters in Hogwarts, groaning he flopped down into the comfortable sofa in front of said fire before reaching for his bottle of firewhisky.

Meanwhile in her office Dolores Umbridge was pacing like a woman possessed after having had an argument with the current minister for magic. She was seething that the current laws on werewolves that restricted them from having jobs was going to be lifted. Making her mind up she went immediately to her lord and asked for instructions.

The next morning Remus awoke feeling lighter than he had in years, he no longer felt plagued. Grinning to himself he made his way downstairs where several members of the Order of the Phoenix were currently eating breakfast, in a jovial mood.

Things had been going very well for the Order as of late, just last night on a raid they were able to arrest one Belatrix LeStrange. The Order had been after her for just over a year now, since she had killed Sirius Black.

Back at Hogwarts the inhabitants were sleeping blissfully unaware of a rat that made its way through the castle and hid itself in an unused room before turning back into a man. The man pulled out a wand and warded the room before transfiguring the desks and chairs into a comfortable living quarters, he would be here for some time after all.

When Harry re-awoke in the morning he felt contempt, oh and a little sore in his arse, but then that was to be expected, it wasn't a bad sore, just an I got well pounded sore. Smiling to himself he gently untangled himself from his lover before making his way to the bathroom to relieve himself and shower.

In Malfoy manor, one Lucius Malfoy was making his way to the floo, intent on visiting his secret lover one Severus Snape. He had just stepped through the floo when he noticed the empty bottle of firewhisky on his lovers coffee table. Sighing to himself Lucius made his way over to the potions cabinet and retrieved a hangover cure from within its vast depths.

He walked into his lovers bedroom and spied the man laid face down half on the king sized bed. Gently he made his way to Severus and rolled him over, sneering as the man fell off awakening with a yelp before glaring at the offender.

Said offender just smirked and held out the hangover cure as to which Severus gladly took. Getting to his feet he placed a gentle kiss to Lucius' lips before going to shower. Lucius had just sat himself down onto the sofa when a sudden explosion and a resounding crash that shook the entire castle startled him badly.

Severus came flying out of the bathroom in only a towel before racing out to the Hogwarts grounds.

Albus Dumbledore choked on a lemon drop before rising from his desk and running out to the same place.

Minerva McGonagall dropped her cup of calming tea before rushing out also, as did Flitwick and the other professors.

Harry rushed out of the bathroom and Blaise sat up in bed startled, both hurriedly dressing before rushing out to the grounds where a sight that shocked them awaited...........
