Severus Snape sneered at the Gryffindors loud cheering as they welcomed another wretched brat into their fold. Finally, the last name was yelled and he wasn’t surprised when the timid looking girl was sorted into Hufflepuff. He was surprised, however, when, after she ran to her table, the castle shook and the ceiling enchantment went out. The students started to scream until Dumbledore fired off some sparks to get everyone’s attention.

Everyone had calmed down slightly and the room had quieted the castle shook once more then glowed but for a second before the enchanted ceiling reappeared. But instead of the clear night he knew it to be the ceiling showed rain with a large dose of lightening. The headmaster went to talk when the sorting hat gasped, “No, it’s not time… Well… I see…. Professor Snape, might I have a moment of your time please?” Everyone looked confused at the young professor who rose and quickly put the hat on his head whilst sneering at everyone.

‘Professor, I have recently been informed that the heir of Hogwarts has been transferred here.’

‘That shouldn’t be possible I am the last heir of Ravenclaw.’

‘You are, but so is your son.’

‘I think, Xavier, that you should get out of your cabinet more.’

‘Hush and listen to me, he is your son, he is still very young and hurt very badly. You need to help him.’

‘What are talking about?’

The hat quickly showed a young boy who looked to be about four lying on a bed. Bruises and cuts covered his body, and Severus felt his breath catch. His child or not that is not a way for a child to be treated. ‘What will you have me do?’

‘Right now, leave here and heal him, do not let anyone know. Not even the headmaster. In your chamber, there will be an extra door that is only for your viewing, he is in there.’

Severus quickly took off the hat and ran out of the room, ignoring the looks he must have received. Taking a short cut, he was surprised to see that it didn’t even take half as long as it usually did. The portrait of a worried looking Salazar swung open without a password and closed shut before disappearing knowing that no one should enter the rooms right now. Severus ran into his room and saw an extra door right by the bathroom door. He calmed himself and walked in. The small boy was taking shallow breaths and seemed to shudder in his sleep. Severus quietly muttered a diagnosis charm and gasped at what he read. Taking a deep breath Severus left briefly but hurried back with several potions.

Severus approached the bed and whispered quietly, “Little one… Little one, I need you to wake up… Little one…” Severus saw his eyes start to flutter and familiar emerald green eyes looked out at him. Severus choked back tears that his darling Lily’s son was treated this way. Severus gave a small smile to the scared and wary boy whose eyes where darting around the room. Severus made a note that they lingered on exits.

“Hello Harry,” Severus spoke calmly and slowly. “Do you know where you are?” Harry gave a minimal movement. “Do you know how you got here?” Again a small movement. “You are at a place called Hogwarts it’s a school for young wizards like you.” Harry gave the man a confused and sleepy look. “My name is Severus Snape, I need you to take these for me.” He indicated the potions vials in his hand. “I won’t lie to you they taste really bad, but it will make you feel better.”

Harry eyed the lilac, pale blue, and cream-colored vials in the man’s hand, knowing he was too weak to make break for it he nodded and Severus helped him take the potions. After Severus made sure that every little bit was swallowed Severus pulled back the covers and tucked the child in. Harry was looking amazed by the gesture and gave a small smile. Soon the emerald green eyes were dropping off into sleep. Severus stayed a few moments longer then cast a spell to alert him if anything went wrong with the boy.

Walking out into his living room he dropped down into a chair, but raised his head when he saw a pearly transparent foot. Looking up, his jaw dropped to the floor as he saw the founders of Hogwarts’ ghosts in his living room. Shock became evident on his face as they all gazed somberly back at him, finally Gryffindor broke the quietness of the room, “So how is the young one?”

Severus shook himself and answered, looking at Helga knowing her to be a mediwizard. “He is bruised and cut, he had four broken bones, and many recently healed fractures. He had a punctured lung and a few broken ribs. I fixed him as best I could but I don’t know all the spells.” Helga nodded before she motioned for everyone to sit.

Rowena was the first to speak, “Your son has had a very hard life so far. His mother and adopted father were killed. Through the headmaster’s manipulations, he had him placed in a very abusive home. Hogwarts herself pulled the small child here, and for that to happen he must have been in mortal peril or he asked desperately.”

Severus looked at them, “What would you have me do? The headmaster has wards to let him know when he leaves the residence without his aunt. Surely he will find him.”

Salazar answered after a hard look at his head of house. “Hogwarts is going to mask his presence and has made the family looking after him the ‘Dirties’, odd name that, think that they finally had inflicted enough damage and killed him. The headmaster must not know that he is here, and the castle will mask his presence. After he is healed we will be taking over his schooling, but we need another to help. We know that you used to be in a relationship with a young man in Gryffindor.” Severus paled but nodded, Lily was his best friend, but he loved Remus terribly. “We have often heard him begging the headmaster to let him check on the small boy. We can see you still love him, and he loves the boy. It should work out, but we will not press you. Do this on your own.”

Rowena confronted him again, “Now we know that you doubt he is your son.” Severus nodded, one drunken night cannot lead to a son. “I know that you have the ingredients for a paternity potion, while he is drugged get the required blood and brew that potion.”

Helga stood up, “Come Master Snape, I will instruct you through the healing spells you need for the little one.” Severus followed her into the room and listened to her instruction. Soon the little boy was only bruised, but some soreness would linger for a few days. Severus also nicked one of the child’s fingers and gathered three drops of blood. He healed the cut quickly and made sure the child was comfortable before he left.

Salazar followed the man into his private lab and watched as he made the potion. He offered no advice or criticism just calmly watched the potion master. Soon the potion turned an indigo blue. Severus held his breath and extracted a ladle of the potion to pour into a bowl. Severus then added a piece of papyrus paper and the three drops of Harry’s blood. They both watched, though only Severus was holding his breath. The paper soaked up the potion and blood. Soon writing appeared in indigo with the Snape and Potter Crest appearing in red.

Severus read the paper and sunk to the floor. He had a son, a little boy who had been beaten and more than likely broken for Gods know how long. Salazar hovered close to him. “Master Snape, come the others and I need to talk with you.” Severus nodded and picked himself up and followed the ghost into his living room. The ghosts went to sit down when they stopped and they fled into the small room. Salazar hung back and turned to Severus, “Put on your mask and think of something to tell the headmaster he is about to break into your rooms.” Severus nodded and noticed the paper still clutched in his hand he quickly sent in into his son’s room.

Not a moment later the headmaster and deputy headmistress barged into his rooms. They both scanned his rooms and found the man sneering into the fire. Albus smiled a smile that almost seemed sinister. “Severus, my boy, might I ask why you fled the welcoming feast?”

Severus turned to the headmaster and sneered at him. “The sorting hat thought that he sensed someone trying to break into my rooms and thought he found black magic on it. But there was no one here when I got here and I had just finished making sure nothing had been taken when you two barged in.”

Albus nodded but still tried to pry his way into the Potion Masters mind. Severus made sure his blocks were up and was about to call out the headmaster when Peeves flew through his rooms and started to scream, “Oh, the master of heads and the kitty teacher, there are screams coming from the dungeon rooms.” He mock sniffled and gave a sadistic grin, “I don’t think they enjoyed my gift to welcome them back.” Severus sneered, pushed the other teachers out, and locked his chambers and ran to check on his snakes.

Nothing was wrong with his snakes though and after he gave his common welcoming back speech, and left the perfects to explain the tutoring and mentoring program. He walked back into his rooms and found the ghost of the founders and the other ghosts of Hogwarts in his room. He raised his eyebrow but went to his favorite chair, casting a warming charm on himself.

Salazar and Godric stepped forward and sat down on seemingly invisible chairs. The two men looked at each other and Salazar sighed and spoke first. “We know that you just got your son back, but Hogwarts was able to look into his history and we, the founders and I, have seen it. He will need counseling and help. Helga can do the counseling. We also know of the prophecy. Sibyll Trelawney was not the first to give the prophecy, Rowena was. She saw our heir and we decided to haunt the halls so we could help.”

Rowena nodded and sat with her two comrades. “The other ghosts here are going to help us, but we want to train the young one. Every ghost in this room has some quality that needs to be taught to him.” Severus raised an eyebrow at Peeves who gave a wave and blew a raspberry. Rowena saw where he was looking and chuckled, “Yes even Peeves, he will be a wonderful playmate for Harry. But Peeves will also be able to teach Harry battle distractions. Before he became a poltergeist, he was a strategic advisor for the MoM.”

Severus was shocked, his son would be prepared for the future if he agreed to this. Of course, there was no if about it. But he was worried that Harry wouldn’t be able to interact with children his own age. And he was worried about the headmaster. Not many knew it, but the prophecy wasn’t talking about Tom Riddle. “How can I keep him hidden from the headmaster? He needs to be able to go outside, I can’t condemn him to never seeing the sun.”

Helga sat down with her friends. “The room he is in now leads to all of our sanctuaries, they won’t open just yet. Salazar’s is dangerous and Godric’s is filthy. But Rowena and mine are open. When I unlock it, it opens to a field in the forbidden forest. The centaurs have always been friends of mine and they often graze in that field and let their foals graze and play there.” Severus nodded but told them about his concern about him not knowing how to interact with children his own age. Again, it was Helga that offered her advice. “You have a godson. We all know about Salazar’s other heir, invite your godson’s father here tomorrow and talk to him. Surely he will see the benefits of letting the founders teach his son?”

Severus nodded and they talked for a few moments later before he wrote out two notes and sent them out with Archimedes, his owl. After he saw his owl flew off he went into his son’s bedroom and sat down in a chair by the bed. He watched his son sleep and soon feel asleep himself.

~~*~~*~*~*~*~~*~*~*~~~*~*~*~~~*~*~~

Harry awoke and was surprised that he didn’t hurt, but he was sore. He looked around the unfamiliar room and saw a man asleep in a chair next to the bed. He quietly got down from the bed and walked to one of the doors, opening the door he quietly snuck into the bathroom and relieved his bladder. He finished and went to wash his hands when he was finished he turned around to see a ghost of a floating man wearing old style clothes. He looked to be about fifty with laugh lines and crows feet around his eyes. He seemed to be healthy though, as far as Harry could tell. The ghost was smiling him and he gave a sad smile back before whispering, “Does this mean I died?”

The ghost smile dimmed a little and he floated lower on the floor, and then knelt though he never reached the floor. “No little one, you are not dead, and won’t die for a long, long time. Come let us get you some breakfast and see if the man outside is awake so he can explain everything to you.”

Harry nodded and followed the ghost out of the room to see the sleeping man from the other room. The man was looking around the room and then focused on him. He gave Harry a small smile, though he looked a little scary, his black eyes gave off a warmth that made Harry relax a little. The ghost gave a smile then called out, “Pippy.”

Harry’s eyes widened then ran to hide in the corner when a big pop sounded around the room and a strange creature appeared. The man walked over cautiously and bent down so he was eye level with him. “Harry,” he looked up at the man, “this is Pippy. Pippy is called a house-elf she works here and won’t hurt you. Pippy is magical just like we are and can pop in and out of a room. Ok?” Harry nodded, but didn’t move. The man turned to the house-elf. “Pippy, can you get us breakfast please?” Pippy nodded then popped away only to pop back with a large tray with all kinds of food.

Harry stared at the tray that was left on a table tucked into the corner of the room. Severus held out his hand to the small boy and ignored the flinch. Harry attentively took his hand and walked with him over to the table. He climbed into the chair and stared at the food. When Severus saw, that Harry had no intention of grabbing anything he got him a glass of milk and pumpkin juice. “What do you want to eat, Harry?” The boy looked confused. “What do you normally eat for breakfast?”

Harry gave the man a puzzled look, but knew he was waiting for an answer so Harry whispered, “If I’m good I get dry toast and some too crispy bacon.” The man stared at him for a moment then gathered a muffin some eggs, bacon, and sausage for him. Harry stared at the plate in awe, he could eat that? He gave the man a look but the man sat down and served himself and started to eat.

Severus had to squash down the anger that erupted in his chest when he found out that his son didn’t get to eat breakfast regularly. He calmed himself though and got a little of everything and put it on his son’s plate. Severus sat down and served himself and started to eat, when he looked back up Harry was watching him warily. “Harry, I want you to eat ok? You’re too skinny.” Harry nodded and started to eat the food quickly. “Harry, slow down little one, you’ll get sick. No one is going to take your plate away until you’re done.” Harry slowed down but still ate quicker than normal.

Harry was so happy that he got to eat eggs, he never got to eat eggs. He also got milk! He started to eat quickly, afraid that it was going to get taken from him, but slowed down when the man said no one was going to take it away. He really liked the orange colored juice. He wondered if it was orange juice, Dudley didn’t like orange juice he liked cola at breakfast. Soon breakfast was over and the dishes disappeared Harry looked all over the table and floor for them but couldn’t find them. Then he remembered that the man said the house elf was magical, just like them. But that that couldn’t be true magic didn’t exist, Uncle Vernon said so. He turned to the man who was looking at him, “What did you mean magical like us, I’m not magical. I’m just Harry.”

Severus had to strain his ears just a little to hear that and then sighed to himself. He got up and walked over to the bed and patted the place beside him. Harry walked slowly over and sat down hesitantly. “Harry, what do you know about your parents?”

“That my dad was a drunken bum and killed my mum in a car accident.” Harry replied immediately as he played with the pale gray comforter.

Severus almost wished that he could go kill Lily’s sister and her family. “No, Harry. You see a long time ago, your mum went to school here at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. She was my best friend. She fell in love with my school enemy, James Potter He was a bully for a long time, but he feel in love with Lily and wanted to become a better person for her. So, he and I became friends. Lily and James were very much in love and got married right after school. But then Lily found out that James had went out with his friend Peter and did something very bad. He did something with someone that he should only have done with Lily. Your mum was very upset and came over to stay with me for a while. One night we got drunk, and your mum and I did something that we shouldn’t have done, but I will never regret it. You see what we did was make a baby, but I didn’t know that. Your mum went back to James after that and she gave birth to a baby soon after. James knew that the baby wasn’t his and preformed a ritual that made the baby have three parents James, Lily, and me. The baby was you Harry, but I didn’t know about you until last night. Your mum and Daddy James loved you very much, but a bad wizard, who has everyone convinced that he is a good wizard, thought that you had too much power. A good wizard, who everyone thinks is bad, came over and tried to save your family, but the bad wizard was there and cast a spell that makes people do things that they don’t want to. The good wizard was forced to kill your mum and Daddy James.”

Severus paused and saw the Harry was listening to him with wide-eyes, but a hopeful fire was lit in them. “The good wizard then was forced to try to kill you, but the curse didn’t have the power in it, because he was trying to fight the spell. The bad wizard saw this and cast the spell himself. The good wizard had finally freed himself from the spell and dove in front of the curse. The good wizard’s body blew up, but he didn’t die. The bad wizard tried to kill you again, but the curse hit you and flew back at him. But he ducked out of the way. Now the bad wizard knew that the good wizard wasn’t dead, even though he had tried many times, he couldn’t kill him. So he decided that you would do it for him. He took you away from your family and put you with your Aunt. But last night something brought you here and I found out about you.”

Harry stared at the man for a moment that asked him in a hopeful voice that showed all his emotion. “Does this mean you’re my daddy?”

Severus looked at the hopeful face. “Yes, little one, it does.” The boy flew into his chest and wrapped his arms around him, Severus just held him gently. When Harry pulled back he looked nervous. Severus tilted his chin up gently and looked into the bright green eyes, “Never ever be worried that I will hit you. If you want or need a hug, I will gladly give you one.” Harry gave a smile showing that he was missing a few teeth from his mouth. “I want you to know Harry, that just because I am your Daddy, doesn’t mean that Daddy James didn’t love you. He did very much.”

Harry nodded. He understood what his Daddy was trying to say, that he had two daddies. They both loved him very much, but one went to heaven like Ms. Figg’s kitty did when a car hit it. He was still curious though. “Daddy, what about the ghosts?”

Severus’ heart tightened in happiness hearing his son call him Daddy. “The ghost that are in this castle are going to be your teachers, they are going to teach you almost everything you need to know about magic. But I have a godson named Draco, he is a little older than you, I am going to try and convince his father to let him take class with you. That way you get a friend and a classmate.” Harry looked nervous, but nodded.

A ghost of a plump woman floated into the room, her hair was in ringlets, and she wore and apron that she kept straightening. She looked older, but Harry wasn’t sure how old. She flew over to Harry with a gently smile that made him relax a little. “Hello little one, my name is Helga. I’m your many times removed Great Grandmother. I came to check on you. Then I am going to explain a few things, okay?” Harry nodded and watched as the witch explained to his Daddy how to cast some spells. A pale gray bolt flew out of the wand and Harry flinched when he saw it was going to hit him, but relaxed when he didn’t feel anything harmful. Helga smiled as the child relaxed, and relaxed when the light pulsed blue, yellow, and then white. She sat in mid-air causing Harry to giggle. She smiled then continued. “Now little one, you might have noticed that your room is blank.” Harry didn’t say anything because he didn’t think this was his room. “I want you to go touch that white stone over there.” She gestured to a white stone that was in the corner of the room. “I want you to picture your favorite colors, favorite animal, and favorite place in the world.”

Harry walked over to the stone and did as she instructed. He closed his eyes really tight so only those things were in his mind. When he opened his eyes the gray room was now colored and he smiled at the welcoming feeling he was getting. The small bed was replaced with a queen sized four-poster bed in a cherry wood that had snakes twisting up the posts. The duvet had green ivy like plants that had red roses and lilies around the edges. The walls started off at the bottom a dark almost black color then lightened to green, then from green to white. The ceiling was the color of the sky with clouds floated across it. The floor went from unforgiving stone to a soft thick black carpet. A few tapestries with unicorns and other woodland creatures hung on the wall. But right above the headboard was a large picture of a white dragon with silver eyes that let out a breath of blue flame. Two doors that were a cherry wood were on either side of the bed. All the doors had a gold handle that were shaped like snakes. Harry smiled happily at the room and sat back down next to his Daddy. Severus himself was amazed at the room, and smiled at his son. He watched as Harry got on the bed to watch the snakes twist up and down the posts. He pulled Harry close to him and gave him a hug. Harry’s smile was huge when he sat back down.

Helga smiled at the two men. “Okay boys, I need you to listen. That door,” she pointed to the door closest to the right side of the bed, “is a closet. That door,” she pointed to the one beside it, “leads to any room that Hogwarts thinks it’s safe for you to enter. You put your hand on it and say the room’s name. Like if you were scared Harry, and you needed to see your Daddy, but you couldn’t leave the room. You put your hand on the door and say, ‘Daddy’s bedroom.’ The door should then open to your Daddy’s room, but no one who didn’t know about this room could see you.” She looked at Harry who was nodding, she continued confident in the knowledge that he understood. “That door,” she pointed to the door closest to the bed on the left side, “is the bathroom. That door,” she pointed to the one beside it, “leads to any of the founders’ private sanctuary. You will be going to Rowena’s private sanctuary to study and have lessons. For a while you will only go into Rowena’s sanctuary. I have to take care of a few things before you go to mine. And Godric’s needs to be cleaned and Sal’s isn’t safe yet. Any questions?”

Harry was quiet for a moment then nodded. “Who are Godric, Sal, and Rowena?”

Helga was about to answer when the deep voice from this morning answered him. “We are.” Harry turned to see the ghost from this morning, beside him was a ghost that looked to be a similar age as the other. He was wearing the same style clothes, but had a goatee. His hair was pulled into a ponytail and was holding the other ghost’s hand. The third ghost was a woman who looked a little like his Daddy, she had similar facial structure, but her nose was smaller. She looked like a strict librarian. “Would you like us to tell you about our lives?” Harry nodded and looked at them. They introduced themselves and settled around the bed. But the ghost that Harry knew from this morning turned to his Daddy. “Master Snape, your friend is in your living room. He looked worried.”

Severus nodded and turned to his son. “Harry, the man outside is one of my best friends. He is the Daddy of the little boy I was telling you about earlier. I need to go talk to him.” Harry nodded but bit his lip. “Helga, will come and get me if you need me, okay?” Harry nodded and Severus got up and went to the door on the other side of the room. He looked back to see Salazar telling Harry about the construction of the school.

Severus took a breath and went out into the living room, knowing that he looked tired and ran down. Lucius looked up and his worried look deepened when he saw him. Lucius pushed him into a chair and sat down across from him. “Your letter left me worried, talk.”

Severus sighed he was tired and worried when he wrote the letter. It only said, “Big News, need your help SS.” He looked at his friend, “I need an oath, for your protection, mine, and someone else’s that you won’t tell, show, or let anyone find out this information.”

Lucius raised an eyebrow but nodded, “I, Lucius Abraxas Malfoy, swear an oath of my magic, that it will protect this secret to anyone who is not informed. No mind magic, potion, or forced magic, may take this secret from me. So mote it be.”

Severus smiled at his friend, “I need you to promise not to interrupt me until I’m done.” Lucius nodded and Severus told him all of what had happened from the start of the Welcoming feast.

Lucius was silent and listened to his friend. He was surprised and saddened at the story of his friend’s son. When it was finished he saw his friend looking warily at him. “I would like for you to meet him, but he is very wary about people.” Lucius nodded, he knew that the little boy would be scared with anyone new.

Lucius smiled at Severus, “How about we make plans to meet in a week? That way you can get Harry calmed down a little, and get him used to the idea of meeting someone new.”

Severus smiled and nodded. Severus relaxed and smirked at his friend, “So how is the missus?”

Lucius scowled at him. “Narcissa is being dreadful, she barely pays any attention to Draco, but when her she hosts tea she forces the poor boy to stand sentry.” Severus scowled. Lucius gave a sad smile, “Gods, I miss him. He wouldn’t stand for this you know.”

Severus nodded and gave a sad smile. Lucius missed his mate terribly, they were constantly on the lookout for something to free him, but as of yet, there was nothing. Lucius looked at the clock and gave his good-byes and left. Severus turned around when the door opened and Harry peeked out. Severus smiled at him and held out his arms. Harry wasted no time in running into them. “What took so long Daddy?” Harry asked then yawned.

Severus chuckled and carried Harry into his room and lay down on the bed with Harry resting in the crook of his arm. “I was talking to my friend. I was thinking of making him your honorary Godfather. He would be your Uncle Lucius.” Severus felt Harry tense and ran a hand up and down his arm. “He is nothing like your other uncle little one. I will stay with you when you meet him so you can get to know him. Okay?” Harry nodded and cuddled into his Daddy’s chest. Soon both of them drifted off into a restless sleep.
