Chapter 14- Sirius versus Bella or Just desserts
Severus was on his way to the edge of the Black Lake to met his friends when he was suddenly upside down. His books, parchments, ink and quills fell out of his bag and end up all over.
His robe was over his face and he couldn't really see.
Sirius! That useless dog! How dare he! They'd just forgiven him and started speaking to him again.
It was just after his last term exam Alchemy and he'd wanted to tell Remus about the test since it was a class he took by himself.
Severus snarled, "Black! I'll kill you for this."
"How dare you speak to our queen this way! You're an embarrassment to our House. Slughorn made a mistake choosing you to be a prefect."
Severus swallowed, that wasn't Sirius. That was Rabastan Lestrange. He sighed, "My apologies, I thought that the person who cast the spell on me was our Queen's traitor of a cousin."
"I've had enough of your blatant disobedience. You associate with my bloodtraitor cousin and our former Queen who was a disgrace to our House. You dare to speak with Mudbloods and you have the audacity to date a Halfblood from Gryffindor?"
Severus was more then a little disturbed by this, over the years of sharing a House with Bellatrix Black he'd become convinced the older teen was quite mad. If she was siccing her future brother in law on him and he thought he recognized Evan Rosier who had assumed himself to be the Slytherin Boys Prefect this year.
Then he heard Bellatrix hissing, "What are you doing here?"
"Me? Just looking for a friend of mine. Have you seen one of your prefects? Snape? Oh aren't those his things? I believe they are. Now Bella,"
"Don't talk me. I'll have nothing to do with filthy bloodtraitors like you."
"Bella, Bella. You really, really should leave Severus alone. Trust me, you harm one hair on his head and you'll be dodging jinxes, hexes and curses for the rest of the year."
"How dare you even speak to me! Do you know who I am?"
"You're my cousin Bellatrix. You think because you're Queen that you can do whatever you like. You're a fool Bella. You always have been. Didn't you learn anything from Lucius and Annie's leadership?"
"Don't mention that traitor! I've forbidden her name!"
"She's your sister, no matter what you or your mother say. Andromeda is the true Queen of Slytherin. You want to know why? Because she understands what true leadership is. You however failed to learn by example. Annie looked out for the weak, and she helped make them strong. Annie took the time to pay attention to people who were lower then she was. Why? Because she understood that it created a debt, that it would breed loyalty. No matter what you say about Annie she'll always be the true Queen of Slytherin. Because she understood what was expected of her. That's why she was made Head Girl and you weren't. You only care about power; and you've forgotten what with power comes responsibility. I pity you Bella. You have no friends; you'll never understand what it means to have someone you'd throw everything away for. You dear cousin are just jealous. Why? Because Annie is everything you want to be. Annie knew what she wanted, she stood up for herself, and she was respected. Annie had someone who loved her and someone she'd throw everything away for. What do you have? Rodolphus, who is just like Lucius. They are both older sons who haven't the courage to stand up to their fathers. They can't choose their future career, they can't choose who they want to Bond with and they are enslaved to their father's rule."
"So if I'm jealous of her what does that make you?"
Severus could hear him sigh, "Me? My father doesn't have that kind of power over me. Why? Because my father is a coward! He's the laughing stalk of pureblood circles because everyone knows my mother rules the family. That's not right! Mother is a Hypocrite, she tells you and your sisters what is expected of you when she doesn't live by those rules. The reason I hate Regulus is because he's just like Father. If two people ever deserved each other it would Narcissa and Regulus because they haven't got a backbone. Those two get led around by the nose first by Annie and now you. I'm jealous of Annie; if Annie hadn't done what she did I might never have had the courage to leave Platform Nine and Three-Quarters with James. I didn't want to Bond to Narcissa. If I had a choice I'd want someone with spirit, someone like Annie. Annie's too old for me; Bonded and has a little girl. Did you know that? You're an Auntie Bella! Annie sent me a picture. Me! Not to her loving sisters but to her traitor cousin."
"You've flouted my authority enough Sirius!"
Severus could hear the beginning of a complete Dark spell.
"Silencio. Go whinge to someone who cares Bella and leave Severus alone. You're a little hot headed. I think you need to cool off."
There were shrieks of dismay and a large splash.
"Anybody else want to get dunked?"
"Bella's right you're a traitor!"
"Shut up Rabastan!"
There was another splash.
"Whose next?"
There came the sound of feet running away.
"Hey Severus?"
Severus blinked, "yeah?"
"How do I get you down from there before James thinks I did it?"
Severus was still a bit shocked, "You any good at nonverbal?"
There came a laugh, "How do you think I threw them in the lake?"
"Oh. The incantation is librecorpus."
It too less then five seconds for Severus to find himself on the ground, sprawled out on his pile of school things.
A hand appeared in front of his eyes, "Don't hit me for this but that was fun. I've wanted to tell that crazy bird off for years. We've got to find a pensieve. Bella flailing as she was thrown into the Lake by an invisible hand was so amazing. Friends?"
Severus stared at the hand before looking up to check that it did belong to Sirius. "Who are you and what happened to the rotten boy whose favourite sport was Snivellius-Baiting?"
"Let me help you up Snape. That can't be comfortable." Those stormy grey eyes sparkled, "I found a new favourite sport Bella – Baiting! Someone has to teach that power-mad bint a lesson or two. she leaves Hogwarts like that and someone will kill her. After all, when she graduates being a former Queen of Slytherin is useless."
Reluctantly, Severus took Sirius' hand. "Sorry for thinking you had me upside down and using the spell I used on you that time."
Sirius pulled him to his feet, "No problem. I didn't think I had a choice. Can you just imagine what James and Remus would do to me if they knew I turned my back on you? Even if it was Bella, Rabastan, Evan and a few others? Just because I've been disowned doesn't change much. I was still born the heir to the Black Family. If Regulus dies before me well, I still get everything and they know it." He smirked, "Truce?"
Severus shook Sirius' hand feeling very confused. "Truce."
"Let's get this mess cleaned up before the others come looking for us."
Severus' ears twitched as he heard Remus calling out his name. "Too late but give me a hand anyway."
XoooooX
Remus had been pacing waiting for Severus to join them.
Then he heard two loud splashes and laughter coming from a ways away.
"Some things wrong."
"I'm sure Severus is fine." James said, his head was in Lily's lap and he was looking up at her as she read a book."
"I'm going to go check." Remus left his things and followed the path back towards the castle. They were sitting on the Forbidden Forest side of the Tree.
He saw Severus kneeling to pick up scattered books, parchment and other familiar things from his boyfriend's bag.
There was also Sirius; he had a hard time trusting that dog after what he'd done. Now he dared mess with Severus again?
He was almost too angry to notice that Sirius was actually helping Severus pick up his spilled things. He called out, "Sev?"
His boyfriend turned to give him a smile, "Remus! You'll never believe what Sirius did."
Remus blinked, since when did Severus called Sirius, Sirius? He'd called him Black for years…
Still confused he lopped towards them.
XoooooX
Sirius handed Severus the last of his spilled schooling having banished the spilt ink and repaired the broken inkpot. He waved, "Hey Remus! I just helped Severus out of a spot of trouble."
Severus snorted, "Spot of trouble? I was hanging upside down practically blinded by my robes and thinking you were behind it. I still can't believe you did that."
By now Remus had reached them, he moved between them and elbowed Sirius out of the way, "Did what? What did Siri do?"
Severus laughed, "He took on Bellatrix! I didn't think he had it in him. He actually dared to lecture the Queen of Slytherin. Then he threw her in the Lake! I wish I could have seen it."
Remus stared at them, looking from one face to the other, "Sirius did what?"
"I told Bella off. I practically called her to her face a useless excuse for a Queen. I told her that Annie would always be better then her and called her jealous. I've never seen her so angry. I thought her head would explode! I told her she needed to cool off so I threw her in the Lake. Rabastan was upset with me for it so I threw him in to. Then Rosier and the others ran off. I wouldn't want to be them when Bella gets out of there. Provided she remembers how to swim."
Severus' brow furrowed, "Aren't you worried what she'll do to you?"
Sirius chuckled, "Me? Bella is just a power mad coward. She can't do anything on her own. She sics her little minions on her enemies. She doesn't bother getting her own hands dirty."
Remus hugged Severus; grateful his boyfriend had survived an altercation with mad Bella. "Uh thanks Siri for helping Sev."
Severus nodded, "Thanks Sirius."
Sirius gave them both a bashful look, his 'aw shucks' face, "It wasn't much. A bit therapeutic as Ted would say." Then he gave them a puppy dog look, "Are we even now?"
Remus rolled his eyes, "You think saving Sev makes up for the other incident?"
Severus poked him, "I think so. Trust me Bella's vindictive. She might forget me for a while and focus on him."
Sirius smirked, "I've been properly Wiccaned. What can she do to me? The magic that protects me wouldn't let her harm me. She tried and failed."
Severus wasn't so sure but he was grateful that Sirius stood up for him. He whispered in Remus' ear, "Maybe we should tell James to train him. It might be fun to sneak out and play in the Forbidden Forest one moon."
Remus glanced at Sirius, "If you think he's made up for it…"
Severus smirked, "Somehow I doubt James is going to be quite as nice to him as he was to us."
"Lets got join James and Lily before the decide to sneak into the forest again." Remus teased as he led them over to their friends.
Sirius asked, "What are you talking about?"
Severus and Remus blushed, chorusing, "Nothing!" before holding hands and running the rest of the way.
What do you think? Outstanding? Exceeds Expectations? Acceptable? Poor? Dreadful? Troll?
