Snape\'s Secret

Disclaimer: I am so not J.K. Rowling, as you can tell by the shitty writing. I own nothing of Harry Potter, except for a few select shirts, posters and things like that. Don\'t sue, or I will cry. Here\'s the first chapter to a for sure, multi-chapter story. Any suggestions or if you\'d like to beta it, please email me, TakeItSnape@aol.com. This is an eventual SS/HG fic.

*Self Thoughts*

The Beginning: Classroom

It all started during a potions class. Mr. Weasley and Mr. Potter were smirking, giving me glances, ones which they thought I could not see. Thanks to my curtain of long, ebony hair, I did.

Potter gave Mr. Thomas a muffled noise, something resembling, \"Hey,\" and undid the clasp on his pack, pulling out a flat, rectangular box. This is when I interrupted the exchange, which they thought they could continue to pull off as I glided towards them. I gave Mr. Thomas a sneer and he hesitantly gave the object to me, giving a worriful look to Potter. The box had a note attached to it which read:

\"Snape resembles the character D. What do you think?\"

The box itself read \"Vampire Hunter D\". *What is this?*

\"Potter, Thomas, both of you detention this evening for inappropriate classroom materials. Oh and 20 points from Gryffindor each.\"

With that I slithered away, wanting desperately to know what this box contained.

The Detention



They arrived at 8:03, three minutes too late so I quickly took 10 points each away from them.

\"You will be reorganizing my storage room and cleaning this room top to bottom, without magic. After that is complete, you will be telling me what this meaning of this is.\" I said, indicating the box on my desk.

I assigned Potter to the dirty work, cleaning the classroom, while Thomas was left to the storage room, since he was the most innocent of the two, but just only.

Two hours later and four shots of Old Odgen\'s, they were finally done. Now to get on to the top priority.

They stood in front of me, knowing the inevitable was coming.

\"Now, you know what is coming, so which one of you would do me the honour of telling me what this thing is?\"

Potter spoke, figures.

\"It\'s called a DVD sir. The genre of it is known as Anime, or Japanese Animation, it\'s a form of entertainment for us muggles to watch.\"

\"I see, but why in namename of Merlin is this linked to me, as you said in the note that was attached?\"

\"Well, because the character D is a theory we have on you. It\'s better if you just watch it.\"

\"How do you suppose I do that Potter? Go into Muggle London and ask a random person if I could make use of their flat for a while?\"

\"Do what we\'ve all done, transfigure something into a DVD player and project it on to a wall.\"

\"Well how simple,\" I said with a biting tone, \"Now I suggest you two get out of my presence before you get another nights worth of detention.\"

They scurried from my office. Now all I had left for the night was to figure out what the hell a DVD player was and watch this anime.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I went to Albus on this one. He informed of what it was, gave me a muggle picture of what it was, what it did and left it to me to figure out what to do next.

With me being a brilliant wizard, but lacking trasfiguration skills, I had a bit of a problem. The blasted thing would always turn out too small, too long, come out with errors and so on, then I got it right. I popped the shiny looking disc into the player, sat back, and watched this movie come to life.

*So this is what they think of me, interesting. I can see what they meant by it, it\'s all wrong, bucan can see where they\'re coming from*

By the end of the movie I was engrossed. I wanted more. The artistry of it was beautiful and elegant. I quickly looked at the inside paper and saw that there was another, \"Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust\", but i wasn\'t going to be able to have it for another year and a half. The following Hogsmeade weekend, I informed Albus about what I was doing.

I was going into Muggle London and getting more of this Anime.

````````````````````````````````````````````

I soon become obsessed with anime and bought all of the new, popular animes; Neon Genesis Evangelion, Tenchi, Tekkaman Blade. I even delved into the world of childrens anime with Pokemon and Digimon.
During one of my weekend visits to London, I went into a newly opened shop called Japanimation Desires. They carried all sorts of things there, manga, anime and something they took orders on called cosplay. What in the world is this?
I tracked down an employee and they told me what this cosplaying was all about. They gave me a pamphlet on a convention, BotCom, that was to be held in mid-August.
@@@@@@@@@@@@@

Here I am now, August 12. I just checked into a four star bed and breakfast, just a five minute walk away from the convention. I got the week off, as if there is anything for me to be doing right now at Hogwarts since all of my school plans are already finished.

Now all there is left for me to so, is go up to my room and put the final touches on my costume. I decided to only do one, D. It only seemed appropriate. It\'s nearly identical to the one in the anime, the only thing different is that my hand does not talk. If I were to have charmed my hand to talk, I think some people may get a little suspicious about that, so I just made one and charmed it to stay on my hand, which works perfectly.
I got up to my room, unpacked and did what needed to be done before tomorrow. I brought plenty of muggle notes so I could by some of the hard to find animes and things like that. When everything was in order and wards were placed around my room, I retired for the night. Tomorrow was going to be one hell of a day.

I know, this probably sucks, but I have fun writing what my heart feels the need to write. This will be an R-NC-17. And just as I got done writing this. I had a brainstorm of at least two things I could write into this fic, and I think I just may do that.

BotCom was originally held August 13-14, 1999 in Southwest London England.
