Chapter 5
1971
Lily Evans was beyond excited, her limbs shaking from having to suppress how she felt. Having just left a meeting with her parents and her new Professor. Unlike most professors this one was great, she was a witch and taught other witches and wizards in a school designed for kids that could use magic. The best part about her new professor is she was able to turn into a cat. A cat…Complete with claws, fur, and a tail! She couldn’t wait to tell her best friend…..
“Severus….”
Lily quickly put her shoes on, the extra minutes making her anxious before she could run to the Snape residence. The whole way was spent telling herself; how could she forget to tell her best friend? She told Severus everything, and the ten minutes she spent daydreaming about her new life could be ten minutes sooner she told Severus. Rounding the corner Lily crashed into the one person she couldn’t wait to see.
“Lily slow down, breath, whatever is so important could have waited a couple extra minutes to tell me.” Severus was always too calm as far as Lily was concerned. Couldn’t he see how excited she was?
Lily waves her hands at Severus and starts jumping up and down. “You don’t understand though, I already wasted ten minutes daydreaming about it, it couldn’t wait another second.”
For a moment Severus stood there, that is until he started chuckling, his small laughter turning into great gusts of air. Lily crossed her arms over her chest, pouting not liking the fact that her best friend was laughing at her expense. Severus too winded and bent over clutching his sides, still laughing couldn’t see the anger that Lily now felt, taking her hand, she knocked him over the head to gain his attention.
“Fine I won’t tell you the most wonderful news that has ever happened to me.” Lily said placing her hands on her hips.
“I’m sorry Lily, truly, but you have to admit the last time you did this was over finding the oddly colored ladybug.” Lily wanted to scream, it was exciting and watching Severus smirk at her was so frustrating.
“Yes I know, but this is bigger… so much bigger” Lily’s hands and arms spread wide trying to emphasize her point.
“I can do magic and its real….”
“I know.”
“And there is a Professor that turns into a cat…..”
“I know, her name is Professor McGonagall”
“Also a whole school dedicated to teaching magic called….Hogwash….”
“I know, and it’s Hogwarts”
“Tomorrow I get to go to a place just for witches and wizards to get my wand and school supplies….”
“I know, I’m coming too”
“And… and…Wait…What do you mean; you know? How do you know, I just told you?”
Severus just smirked, “I was visited by the very same Professor McGonagall too; I will also be attending Hogwarts.” He had to say it in that know it all way of his; I swear sometimes the silky idiot had to read my mind. With how he always knows what I am going to say next.
That did it in Lily’s mind her life just became perfect; not only was she a witch but her best friend was a wizard. They could go to the same school, and have classes together, and eat their meals together. There couldn’t have been a happier eleven year old in all of England….no wait in the entire world. Turning towards Severus she just smiled, life was perfect.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lily’s life was perfect at least till she got home. Walking through the door she could hear glass breaking and the shrill voice of her sister screaming at their parents.
“What do you mean Lily has magic…That she gets to go to a magical school….You told us mother that magic was not real….That all those stories about magic and elves was just that… Stories….Now you’re telling me that not only is it real; but my sister has it… Why didn’t you give it to me…Why does she get to have magic? Why does she get to be pretty? Why does she get to have all the friends?...And…And why does Severus only want to be her friend?...It’s not fair mother….”
The last part was so loud and shrill that it made Lily’s ears ache. Petunia ran from the kitchen and stopped in front of Lily. Petunia pushed her down yelling into her face, “Don’t ever look, talk, or touch me again. You’re not normal and I don’t want to be anywhere near your freakishness.”
Lily lay on the ground, silent tears falling past her cheeks; she couldn’t understand why her older sister no longer loved her.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Of course Lily told her best friend everything that happened with her sister. Where Severus’s response was to just forget the weed; delivered in his silky, snarky, voice. For the rest of the summer Lily was still excited but not nearly as much as she was that first day. Now, sitting next to Severus on the Hogwarts express was just pure torture. It was like all the excitement just built and built to a point where it exploded out of her. Being on a train, in the confined space of the cars was not enough room for an over excited Lily.
“Please Lily will you just sit. You’re driving me insane. We will get there when we get there, and you’re bouncing around will not help the train move any faster.” Pleaded Severus, thinking she may have heard a bit of a whine as well.
Lily looked at her irritated friend, and sighed “OK, Severus…I’ll try.”
Lily did try; she tried really hard to stay quiet, and still as her friend rested his head closing her eyes. Reading a book wasn’t helping, she had already read them all; the scenery was no help, it was moving by too fast for focus. Looking back at her friend she had to say it, her mouth moving well before she could stop it.
“Severus I know… You are going to be a dark wizard your perfect for it with your dark hair and eyes” Squealed Lily into his ear, making her friend open one eye. Lifting one eyebrow at Lily had her squealing again.
“See that look their… it is the perfect dark wizard look.” Lily sat back in her seat while Severus huffed at her closing his eyes. But she could see the smile that played on his lips.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sitting next to an over exuberant Lily, in the confined spaces of the car was pure torture. Maybe it would be a good tactic he could tell Rabastion next time he would see the Elf. Severus scoffed at the ‘I’ll try’ that came from her mouth knowing that silence wouldn’t last long. But he would take what he could get, needing the extra quiet moment to arrange his thoughts for the tasks he had before him.
With his eyes closed and head resting on the back rest, Severus let his thoughts just flow through his mind like water. He loved Lily, what wasn’t there to love, she was smart, funny, so full of life, and the magic poured off of her. Sending him in a daze most of the time. He knew what he was; had ever since he was old enough to keep it a secret. He was a dark Elf, with the blood of the Drow running through his veins. He even knew his original name, which made him believe he was a half-blood Prince; a personal joke telling only himself. He hated keeping things from Lily, but it was for her protection. She was the granddaughter to the Fallen Enrai; which makes her the Heiress. His orders from the interim Lord… Wait…. Dark Lord now, he must never forget that, it could cost everything. The orders were simple; spy on Dumbledore, watch and protect Lily until she came into her Elven inheritance. He had already been looking out for Lily for the last eleven years; he only had six more years to go. It shouldn’t be too hard.
The train pulled into the station at Hogsmeade, where all the students were ushered out, first years heading in one direction and the other years the opposite. The time Severus spent in a fog, with Lily next to his side up till the Sorting Hat split them apart.
Severus looked across the dining hall towards Lily, how can one hat, dictate his life. But that stupid Sorting Hat did just that...It had placed Lily in Gryffindor, while it placed me in Slytherin. The hostility between the two houses was enough to keep us separated. At least Lily would have two protectors in her own house. Even starting by each sitting on both sides of her. To her left was Sirius Black and to her right was Remus Lupin. But it should have been him sitting across from her…Not the Potter boy.
Severus looked down his own table seeing the Lestrange twins Rabastion and Rodolphus both in their seventh year. Next, Lucius Malfoy; who was in his sixth year; and sitting next to him was Narcissa Black, in her fifth year. At least he would have help guarding Lily from afar for a couple more years.
The next day Severus is startled out of his thoughts when he hears his friend’s voice call him.
“Severus… Please Severus wait for me.” Lily pleads her small legs working double time in trying to keep up with his longer stride.
“Severus Snape this changes nothing. I don’t care that you’re a Slytherin and I’m a Gryffindor. You’re still my best friend and I refuse to act otherwise.” Lily said with her flare for the dramatic.
Severus smiled, “Your right nothing can come between us.” With a lighter heart and a clearer mind he gave his friend a tight hug; and walked the rest of the way to class.
“Severus I expect to see you in the library after dinner so we can study together” Lily said to Severus’s back. He didn’t even turn around just waved his hand towards her, showing that he had heard. If he had turned around though he would have seen Potter standing in the shadows looking at Lily.

1977
“Snivelous” The taunting voice of Sirius driving nails into Tom’s head; he didn’t know how Severus could handle it on a daily basis like he did.
“Why you ungrateful, mangy mutt…How dare you call me that here. What do you get out of tormenting me away from school? I understand the reasons you do it in school…At least I thought I understood the reasons…Now I’m starting to think you actually are trying to please Potter. Does it make you feel better to know you are garnering the respect from a disgusting wizard that only looks up to Dumbledore…”
“Enough” Tom roared, nearly shaking the walls with how loud it was. “Remus your father is in the other room; he is back from his mission and would like a moment with you.” Making a shooing motion with his fingers, “While I talk to these children here.”
Remus looked up to Tom saying with a cheeky grin, “Which father, My Lord?”
Tom shook his head, he has the respect of these children’s parents, but when it comes to them they have no respect what so ever. And if they are like this now, what are their children going to be like. Hopefully he would never have to find out, his greatest wish is that here in a couple of weeks he would be able to hand over the Mantle of leadership to Lily and be done with such disrespect.
“Remus, you know which father I speak of, you only call Fenir father; the other, Papa.”
Remus laughed walking out of the room. Tom, hiding the smile that Remus caused; at least these children are finding some happiness. Now back to the other two children; actually neither Elf was a child any longer both reaching adulthood recently.
“Can both of you stop fighting for ten minutes so we can make the plans necessary, for Lily to become the Enrai at Seventeen.” Tom looks at the two and wonders if they are at each other’s throat because of the school they attend. Or if it is genetically programmed for these two houses to always hate each other being reminded of the two houses arguing even back when he first took Leadership. How did the Fallen Enrai handle it?
“When Remus gets back we will start the meeting. Until then spare me a headache and stop arguing for today.”
Both answered, “Yes My Lord.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The night of Lily’s seventeenth Birthday went completely wrong. The plans were for her finding out about the Elven Realm, and to take her place as the new Enrai were for nothing. She was not the one who could break the Elder wand. She gained the boost of power, like everyone thought she would but it wasn’t enough. She also did not receive the Elven traits, she still looked human. The tattoos from the ritual never changing as they were supposed to do when the one came. Severus was devastated, three weeks earlier he found out she was his mate. The one for him, but because fate had decided to be cruel he could never have her.
“I am sorry Severus I know what this pain is like…”
Severus lost it hearing those words, how could anyone know what this pain felt like? To have fate squeeze your heart till it bled. “You have no idea of the pain you are asking me to go through…”
Severus knew even though he was angry, he should never have yelled at the Dark Lord, and when he saw that blood red gaze land on him, he would be lucky if he got out of the room with only being yelled at.
“No idea you say… Do you have any idea why I have never mated? My mate was also stolen from me by fate. At least you had years you were able to talk, laugh, touch your mate. I had one night, and that night was so horrible I would be shocked if she ever remembers it…” The Dark lord didn’t need to yell, the crazed look and cold voice spoke louder than yelling ever could.
Taking a moment to calm down, Severus finally found the courage to speak, “Who was she My Lord?” One word barely spoken was enough for Severus to be able to hear in the silent room.
“Aubrey”
Severus was in shock, the Dark Lord had to watch his mate get married, have children that are not his own. And to make everything worse it wasn’t another Elf; it was a muggle. Other Dominant Elves have committed suicide when this happened, but the Dark Lord could not; there was no one else to care for the Elven realm till the new Enrai was born. And now the Dark Lord would have to wait, another 15, 20, 25 years just to get the glimmer of hope again. Fate truly was a cruel mistress.
Severus would have rather been cursed than have gone through what the Dark lord has been through for the last 32 years. With a new look of respect in his eyes; he was now ready to listen to what the Dark Lord was asking him to do.
“You have to drive her away from you, emotionally damage her enough that it will drive her into another’s arms. There is no other way; we cannot reveal that she is the Heiress till the new Enrai is born. Even than we may have to wait till they reach seventeen as well. I’m sorry Severus I never wanted another Elf to go through the Hell I have been through.”
Severus bowed low to the Dark Lord, “It will be done as you ask.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“Severus… Please Severus wait for me.” Lily pleaded trying to catch up to him as quickly as possible. Severus stops knowing that this will be the last time he got to talk to his mate.
Lily gave a small nervous smile “Severus why have you stopped talking to me? My Birthday was weeks ago and you never even said anything.”
Lily was hurt, he knew she was hurting and after he was done it would be much worse. Severus looked down at the tentative hand Lily placed on his arm. He felt his face grow cold and a sneer come to his lips.
“Why would I ever wish Happy Birthday to a mudblood like you?” Severus said in the coldest voice he could. He knew it has worked though he could see the horror in her eyes. Now it was time for the grand finale.
Severus shakes Lily’s hand off his arm, “Now I have to burn these clothes…A mudblood touched them.” That did it and the perfect person also overheard as well.
“That’s enough Snape I knew you were no good, I knew from the moment I saw you. I’d bet my last Galleon in the Potter vaults that you were a Death Eater.” James Potter said all that while pushing Severus against the walls. He saw Potter’s fist draw back. All Severus could think was nothing could hurt worse than what I just did.
“Come one James, he isn’t worth the trouble anymore.” Lily said, tears in her eyes as she walked away.
The last thought that ran through Severus’s mind before despair flooded in; was maybe Lily wasn’t the only one with a flair for the dramatic.
