Chapter 2
Severus debated on whether to take the kid to his flat nearby and put a meal in him, he truly needed it, but he decided to have that wait until the visit with Dumbledore was through. That way, the foolish old man could see exactly what has happened to the child in the hands of those disgusting muggles.
Harry spoke about anything but the people he was sent to live with. In fact, the only time he mentioned one of them was his earlier question when Harry realized that he may not have to wear those hideous clothes anymore.
Severus used to be shut mouthed about his home life too. Even Lily didn't know half of what his bastard father had done to both his mother and him. He grit his teeth, shoving those memories back deep in his mind. He couldn't think about that right now. Lily's son needed all his focus.
"Do you like snakes?" The little boy asked. His question had been prompted when a boy his own age came running by with one wrapped around his neck, screeching for his mother, begging her to let him keep it.
"Not really."
"How about dogs?"
Severus made a sour face. "I positively despise dogs."
"Cats?"
Severus refrained from sighing. Obviously the boy was going to go down a list of living creatures, in search for the one that Severus favoured the most. "Owls are quite nice. Intelligent. Usually quiet- if well trained."
"An owl?" Harry asked in shock. "You can't keep an owl for a pet!"
"Of course you can!" Severus huffed.
"But they are wild animals!"
"Which is why I said if they are well trained."
"Oh." Harry said nothing more for a while. Severus' blunt correction may had set him back a bit. That didn't bother Severus much, he'd prefer the quiet walk.
Severus hoped that Dumbledore would be on the same ground as Severus was with Harry's living conditions. And by God, with the guilt trip that that man laid on Severus any chance he got, he'd better relocate Harry!
Upon exiting Diagon Alley, Severus refrained from gulping when he saw who was approaching the entrance.
Lupin.
He'd surely recognize Harry. Anyone who spent enough time with James Potter could spot the boy a mile away.
Lupin forced a smile when he noticed Severus; his way of being civil. He hated Severus as much as Severus hated him.
"Didn't know you had a kid, Snape." Lupin inquired about the boy, clearly he not had given Harry a good look over.
Severus cleared his throat. "I have not sired anyone, nor do I plan to."
"I'm Har-"
"He's my cousin." Severus cut in quickly, snatching the back of Harry's shirt and giving him a tug to mute him.
"Wah!" Harry giggled, landing softly against Severus' legs. He adjusted his glasses that had gone crooked from the abrupt movement.
Lupin's eyes narrowed at Snape suspiciously and then lowered down to look over the boy.
Severus stepped into his view, blocking Harry's sight from him. "Don't you have something more important to do than to scrutinize my kin?" He growled.
Lupin gave another one of his fake smiles. "I suppose it's not my business, indeed. Best of wishes to you, Snape. I'm sure the boy is in lovely hands." He chuckled sightly at his joke and slipped passed Severus to walk on, but not without giving the boy another look. Severus' pulse sped up as he watched Lupin's eyes narrow.
He knew... There's no way he didn't notice the messy dark hair and the glasses.
Lupin's smile turned real. "Good luck to you, young man." He said to Harry and finally was on his way.
"Bye bye!" Severus snatched Harry's eagerly waving hand and escorted him to the nearest safe house.
"I guess you don't like that man." the boy said musingly.
"Not at all. But his feelings are the same for me, so, fair is fair."
"Why don't you like each other?"
"That's not something I am going to discuss with you." Severus said coolly. He entered the home, heading strait to the fireplace. Flooing a child was much safer than apparating them. And since they were going to Hogwarts, they could arrive in the Headmaster's office this way, verses the long walk they'd have to make if they were to apparate. Severus wanted this boy released from him as soon as possible. Dumbledore would be able to find a trustworthy home for Harry. Anything would be better than the bitch Petunia and her whale of a husband.
"What are you doing?!" The boy instantly began fussing and tugging at Severus when he went to pull the boy into the blue flames of fire.
"It won't hurt." Severus informed softly. "See?" He gestured down at his robes, showing the boy that they were in perfect shape.
Harry gave a confused look, cautiously inspecting the flames.
"Ever seen Star Trek?" Severus asked after a quick thought.
"Once..." Harry replied. "I... don't watch much telly." His eyes shifted away from Severus.
"Did they go into Transporter in the episode that you watched?"
Harry nodded.
"Good." Severus said with a smile of relief. "This is like one of them. We're going to transport to a different location."
Harry's jaw dropped. "We are?! Really?!"
"Really. Just step in next to me, and we'll be off."
Harry needed no more coaxing, he literally leaped in, landing beside Severus, his grin as wide as ever. "Now what?"
"Hold very still." Severus instructed. "Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardy, Albus Dumbledore's Office." He spoke in a slow drawl, pronouncing every syllable.
They began spinning. Harry's hand tightened around Severus' and there was a small yelp that escaped his lips. Severus closed his eyes tightly as the familiar feeling of his body rejecting his guts formed at the pit of his stomach. Then, it stopped all together. Breathing slow and deep, Severus stepped out of the Floo network, noticing he was dragging Harry.
"Blast..." he muttered. The kid was breathing fast and deep. With a groan, Harry threw up. Right on the hem of Severus' robes. Severus saw red in his eyes from a sudden rage of anger. That filthy little-
"Sorry!" Harry shrieked with a sob. "So sorry!" He inched his way back into the fireplace, his green eyes pooled with tears of embarrassment and fright. "I didn't mean it! Please don't punish me!"
Severus hastily took out his wand, and the boy rolled up into a ball as small and as tight as he could. Swallowing hard at the sight, Severus' eyes misted at the memory of him doing the same in his own youth. He cleaned the boy's mess with a simple wordless 'scourgify'.
"Harry..." Severus said as gently as he could. "The mess is gone now. There's no reason to be afraid. I am not going to punish you for a mere accident that you couldn't help..."
Harry peeked up from the cross of his shielding arms to confirm Severus' words. Finding them true, he lowered his hands, eyeing the hem of the robes. "How did you clean them so fast?" Harry whispered astonishingly, forgotten tears loosely fell from his face.
"You'll learn about that all later. Right now, you're going to meet my friend, but you have to come out of there first."
"Okay." Harry voice was quiet, but full of interest. He crawled out before standing to his feet and dusting off his soot covered clothing.
"Good boy." Severus said approvingly and walked to the Headmaster's desk. The office was empty of life, but the whirring gadgets allowed enough movement and sound to keep it from being anything but quiet and dull. "Don't touch anything." Severus hastily added to the boy. Just in time too. Harry was about to poke something that Severus wasn't even sure what it was. It looked like a lava lamp, but without the lamp. A blob of "lava" floated in mid air.
Severus took a specialized textbook from the desk and spoke to it, "Albus, I'm in your office now. We have an urgent matter on our hands. -Severus." As he said the words, they scrawled onto the paper in Severus' own handwriting. Severus ripped the page with his words out of the textbook and crumbled it up into his hands. As he did this, the paper broke into many pieces, like it were a brittle piece of cracker. The tiny crumbs rose up from the floor, and, without the assistance of even a gust of wind, flew out of the office in search for the receiver of the message.
"Wow..." Harry whispered, gazing at another object. He must had been too busy exploring his eyes to pay attention to Severus much at all. "What are these things?" He pointed to a tiny glass box, similar to an ant farm.
Severus walked over to Harry to eye it over. Dozens of tiny specks of some sort of insect jumped around on very tiny contraptions, looking very much like a miniature child's playground. It took him several seconds until he discovered its identity. "A flea circus." Severus informed Harry with a chuckle.
Harry grinned. "Wicked."
The door to Albus' office opened and the old wizard himself paused a moment at the doorway when he unexpectedly seen the boy. He said nothing, shutting the door behind him and walked- keeping his thoughts to himself, to Severus and Harry.
"And how did you obtain possession of the boy, Severus?" Albus asked curiously without taking his sparkling eyes off Harry.
"Found him in the middle of the streets of Diagon Alley."
Albus' eyes snapped up to Severus at the explanation. His eyes suddenly very serious. "How did he get there?"
"Given that the boy doesn't even know how he managed it, and by the fact that his once reddening cheek is now-" Severus gestured toward Harry's face, which was sporting the beginning of a blueish purple bruise.
"Accidental magic..."Albus whispered. "He's a bit too young..."
"Not too young, but young, yes."
The starry twinkle in Albus' eyes faded as he assessed Harry's condition.
Harry twitched uncomfortably at the sudden staring that both men were doing to him. "What?" He asked warily. "What did I do now?"
"Nothing, dear boy." Albus went to pat his hand against Harry's shoulder, but Harry raised his hands up in defense.
"You see why I said this was urgent?"
Albus nodded absently. "This is... not good."
"He should be relocated today." Severus said firmly. "He will not go back there."
"Well..." Albus sighed. "He has really no other place to go..."
"An orphanage would be better at this point, Albus!" Severus snarled.
"No." Albus' voice went cold. "I wont send him to one of those. Not after what happened to Tom Riddle."
"Well he certainly can't go back to those bloody muggles! Not after what happened to me!"
Albus raised a hand to calm Severus. "Severus-"
"No, Albus!" Severus shook his head. "You have no idea how bad it could get in the hands of people like that." Severus stepped forward and spoke quietly enough so only Albus could hear his following words. "My father nearly killed me several times in my life for the severe 'punishments' he gave me. I forbid the boy from returning back there."
"Severus, I am surprised." Albus said tauntingly. "I did not know you could have such feelings for..." his eyes flicked a moment toward Harry and back to Severus.
Severus stepped back stiffly. "You know exactly why, sir. No need to patronize me. But even if that wasn't the case, he deserves a better home. And you best find him one."
Albus chuckled amusingly and walked to the door that led to his chambers. "Come, Severus, let's have a word in private."
Severus nodded and turned to address Harry. "Remember what I said, Harry; no touching anything."
"Yes, sir." Harry said distractingly, still gazing at the many wonders of the room.
"There's some lovely candy in that bowl there, Harry." Albus pointed to the dish on his desk. "Have one if you'd like."
"Thank you!" Harry said with brightly lit eyes and made his way to the candy.
"Just one." Severus added firmly, knowing the boy would probably eat the whole dish if he were allowed.
Harry pouted, but delicately slipped one into his mouth.
When Albus and Severus were separated from Harry, Albus smiled, and his eyes flashed mischievously.
"What?" Severus tilted his head, bracing himself, knowing Albus was a sneaky man who loved to torture Severus.
"I know just the perfect person to watch over Harry."
"You do? Already?" Severus asked in doubt. "You haven't given it much thought, sir."
Albus' smile turned into a grin, and without him needing to say anything more, Severus knew who Albus had chosen.
"Oh, hell bloody no!"
