Chapter 4: The Meeting and the Truth
Part 3
A/N: Thank you all for voting for Severus to not go to Jail. Cuz I wasn’t going to do it anyways, because Severus has been through too much in this story to last him a life time. Thank you to all those who reviewed, added me or the story to their favorites and alerts. You guys are amazing!
A/N2: This part will be in Harry’s POV.
-“Talking”
-‘People in memories talking’
Last time on From Dusk ‘Til Dawn….
“Peter was never the Secret Keeper…Albus Dumbledore was.” Petunia said stepping in.
“WHAT!!” Tonks, Severus and I screeched in unison.
“I am telling the truth. Severus please give me the Veritaserum and I’ll prove it with that and my memory.”
Severus sighed and nodded to Poppy who soon was gone and back in a flash with a vial of Veritaserum.
My aunt Petunia sat down in the chair that Severus had vacated and opened her mouth as three drops of the potion was administered.
Tonks immediately stepped into action, “What is your name?”
“Petunia Evans,”
“How do you know exactly that Albus Dumbledore was the Secret Keeper for the Potters?”
“I was the one that suggested it.”
“Lily and James agreed to this?”
“Yes,”
“Why?”
“Because we believed that Dumbledore could do no wrong considering that he was on the light side after all.”
“Then why did everyone lead to believe that Peter Pettigrew was the Secret Keeper?”
“He was a decoy, meant to distract Voldemort.”
“Where were you on the night of October 31st 1981?”
“I was at Godric’s Hollow with my family.”
“Was this planned or did you drop in unannounced?”
“It was unannounced.”
“Why?”
“I had forgotten my purse at their house the night before.”
“What happened when Voldemort attacked?”
“I heard James scream to Lily to grab Harry and run. I was upstairs in the bathroom; I was too scared to move. I thought that Lily would make it in time to apparate to my house in Surrey, but she didn’t, I could hear her fighting with Voldemort. I knew I had to do something so as I watched with tears streaming down my face I watched as my twin was murdered and as Voldemort turned and cast the spell on my precious nephew I cast my own killing curse on Voldemort. There was a loud screech and then he was gone.” Tears were streaming down my aunt Petunia’s face now and she turned and looked at me. “My precious nephew was alive but was now an orphan so I took him to Griphook at Gringotts and had him write up an adoption paper before anyone else could.”
“What do you mean? Did you suspect that Dumbledore had betrayed you?”
“Yes, but I didn’t have enough evidence to prove it, nor enough evidence on Peter either.”
“That’s it I have heard enough! My aunt is not and will never be a murderer. She took me in and gave me a loving home. She even told me about the prophecy that I had to kill Voldemort when he returned. She, along with my friends, Draco, Neville, Ginny and Luna gave me the strength and courage to kill Voldemort.” I said frantically, hoping that they would listen and give her a break.
“Your right Harry that is enough.” A voice said. Kingsley had come back with a bound Dumbledore, while Remus and Sirius had bound Ron and Hermione. “I hereby announce Petunia Evans innocent as well as Severus Snape who is pardoned for all crimes because he didn’t do them willingly.”
I nodded my head in thanks to Kingsley. Madam Bones on the other hand was beyond furious. “I want those three criminals out of here NOW! Take them to Azkaban where they will be awaiting a trial that will be within the next twenty-four hours.”
Once they were gone and Poppy had administered the antidote, I looked at Tonks in a pleading way, “Can you take the Oath off of Severus too?”
“Of course dear,” Tonks smiled at me then turned to Severus. “I am going to do the same reversal spell that I did with Harry but I am going to include more to it than I did him okay?”
“Thank you Tonks,” Severus said with a small smile.
“But first I must do and evaluation on you to know exactly what he put on you.” She began waving her wand for fifteen seconds and when the test was done she gasped.
“What? What is it?” Severus asked angrily.
“Not only did he take most of you magic away during the Oath, he cast a silent Cruciatus curse on you that is intertwined with the Oath that you made with him, so that if you were ever disobedient that you would feel immense amount of pain, along with a silent loyalty spell so that you were loyal to him no matter at what cost. But it seems that some of the spells are wearing down. When did you start fighting them off?”
“It took years to accomplish it, but I made a potion that would weaken the spells and curses that he had put on me. I remember that it was the first year that Harry came to Hogwarts that I had completed the potion.” Looking back at me with sorrow and guilt shining through his eyes, “Harry, I am so sorry for how I treated you, I remember my first thought when I had seen you. You looked too much like your father and I became weary and thought that you would think like him. But after you proved that you could handle yourself against Voldemort that had used Quirrell as a vessel to do his bidding I knew you were much more like your mother than your father was. I am so sorry and I should have treated you better but I was so afraid of both Voldemort and Dumbledore.”
I ran up and hugged him, “It’s alright Sev, and I know that you were protecting me in your own way. I forgave you a long time ago and I am telling you this now, after Tonks gets these spells and curses off of you and we get your name cleared why don’t we all move to America and away from the Wizarding World for good?”
“Thank you Harry, you have no idea how much this means to me.”
“Okay Severus, if you want to do this, I have got to do this now.”
I stepped away from my surrogate father and watched as Tonks started to wave her wand in intricate and way more difficult patterns than before pointing to herself then Severus as she started the reversal spell. “Et hoc delens quis Tonks Nymphadora I undo et juramentis, et maledicta spells off of Severus Snape.”
Severus slumped a little before a golden light passed threw him. Looking up again at us he looked years younger and his hair was cleaner than ever before. The lines on his face were gone and his onyx eyes sparkled. I knew then he was ready to exact his revenge and yet stayed where he was sitting. I knew he wanted to get up and kill Dumbledore to exact his revenge but I knew that he knew that in time we would have our revenge, one way or another.
Draco, Neville, Luna, Ginny and I went up and hugged Severus in a big group hug, and for the first time in all of my life I heard Severus laugh and smile a genuine smile at us.
“Petunia, as a precaution, I want you to take Harry, Severus, Draco, Neville, Ginny and Luna to your house in Surrey and wait for my owl. I will be giving you a portkey that will activate two hours before the trial.” We all nodded and were on our way back to my aunt Petunia’s house.
