Mockingbird

A/N I would like to thank those that have reviewed and definetely thank my beta who without her I would not be able to update this story so thank you Sakhmet for everything. Hope you all enjoy I will try updating every other week.


I am left in all consuming black
Left to cry
Left to weep
Left to fight against the shadows within the dark
Every punch
Every whimper
Whispers through these unearthly halls
The sounds carried by the shadows within the dark
The castle creaks
Awakening as if from a dream
To save me
To kill me
To bring me my sweet release
All of this while I sing about the shadows within the dark
The noise is growing louder
The fear hardening my soul
Left to wonder
Left to wait
For the shadows within the dark
No knight has come to save me
No prince in royal blue
The dragon has come to slay me
The witch in blood comes too
Both guided along by the shadows within the dark
Every hope
Every dream
Fades within the black
My unending screams are silenced by the shadows within the dark
With my last breath I smile at last
The pain is fading slow
With it goes the sorrow
With all but a little of my woe
The light it comes it comes so quickly
It finally comes to me at last
To banish away
To banish forever the shadows within the dark

Harry quickly ran to the dungeons, having no clue what he would say when he got there. All he knew, was that the only person he could go to, was the one who had been making his life hell.

He was pregnant and scared. Knowing if he wanted to make it with his baby safe; he needed to go to someone who knew how to hide, and hide well.

He made his way to the Potions classroom, entered slowly; creeping really, to make sure no one was there. He made his way to the back of the room, where a portrait of a black knight was hanging. Upon seeing someone, the black knight began to speak.

“What are you doing here? State your business”

Harry replied “I need to speak to the man whose room you protect. My business is with Professor Snape”
The black knight disappears from his portrait and after a couple of minutes he comes back and a doorway previously hidden begins to open.
Harry quickly darts into Snape’s room, not knowing what to expect. What he sees shocks him, instead of the dark and dreary room that he expects, there is color. Not green and silver; but light blue and gold, throughout the room. There were vials everywhere, as well as books, it looked lived in.

Sitting in a chair at the far side is Snape. Harry makes his way over to him nervously.

“So Potter what do I owe this visit to?”

“Professor Snape I need to talk to, something bad is going on and I have no one else I can trust.
Snape was surprised, but quickly hides it and motions for Harry to continue.

“Well you see, umm… Well, a couple of months ago, Dumbledore, well, he did something to me; and I wound up pregnant. As soon as I found out, I started hiding it.

I was told to go to his office today, but I don’t think he remembered, because when I went in, he was ranting. He was saying such horrible things; about how he wanted to steal my power and how I was pathetic because I am not pregnant. He wants me dead; and I don’t know what to, you may be true to him; I don’t know, but you are my best chance at survival”

As Harry talks Snape got angrier, and angrier, thinking of what his son had been through. He knew he should tell Harry about his true family, but can’t find the words he needed to say.
Instead he makes a move towards getting Harry out of Hogwarts.

“I don’t see why you would make something that outrageous up, but you know it would be truly hard to get anyone else to see it your way. I have a plan, but you aren’t going to like it. Before you interrupt you should know I am truly loyal to Voldemort, though there has been fighting in the past.

If you agree to not fight him, we may be able to organize your stay, with one of his trusted followers. For now though you are going to have to act like nothing is wrong, so go before someone notices you are gone.”
Harry thought on Snape’s suggestion, nodded his agreement and quickly made his way back to his dorm.
Back in Snape’s room things were chaotic. Snape couldn’t figure out what to do first, to call his master; or to call his mate. Either way, things were going to change.

He hoped that it was for the better.
