Violet Snape's Life

Chapter 1

They say that whenever someone did something, it was for the best. That's what a man had first thought when he'd decided to do this, not just for his safety, but also for the sleeping child in his arms. The man was dressed all in black, he had black hair, and he silently walked down a darkened sidewalk, it was down an empty street, but up head, as he squinted into the thickening darkness, he could only make out a small house. He never wanted to do this but it is the best choice, he didn't want to think of how he had to place the child with such people, but it was just all the same, he had to do this.

He stopped in front of a house and knocked, careful not to move the small bundle in his arms, afraid that he'll wake the sleeping child.

A woman opened the door; she had long blonde hair and dark blue eyes. She quickly looked around then ushered the man inside and closed the door quickly.

Once inside, the woman's eyes flickered to the bundle in the man's arms, concern and confusion flashed in her eyes, and she asked, unsure if the man was serious about this, "Are you sure you want to do this?"

The man looked down at the bundle in his arms, then he looked back at the woman, and said, his tone calm, "I have to. I don't have a choice. I have to keep her safe."

The woman said, knowing just what any parent would have done for their child, "I understand. However, why me? Why not her godmother, if you know exactly who I'm talking about?"

However, he shot the woman a glare; his black eyes narrowed, and hissed darkly, "Her godmother is in danger. Don't you think I would be here if I could give her to her godmother? We've been over this, you should know."

The woman sighed, and she said, "She will be safe here I promise. I will take care of her."

The man said, "She must never know. Not until the time is right."

The woman nodded, and said, "She won't know until the time is right."

The man nodded and looked down at the bundle, underneath his cloak, he pulled out from his cloak a small baby, he looked at the woman, sighed, and said, not wanting to be at the home more than he really had too, "Let's just get this over with. I should be going back soon."

Then woman looked at the baby. The babe had slightly pale skin and dark black hair. The woman stepped forward and took the baby from the man's arms. The man pulled out a stick and waved it over the babe muttering words under his breath. Almost as if the baby knew something important was happening, the baby opened its eyes. That's when the woman looked into the baby's bright green eyes.

Then the baby gave a tiny cute yawn and fell back to sleep. Slowly the baby's appearance began to change. The skin turned a few shades lighter and the hair changed to blonde. Then man smiled sadly as he watched the changes, not trusting himself to be a wreck, should any of this ever gets out, and lands in the wrong hands? There was no going back now. He put the stick in his pocket, now suddenly regretting ever doing this to the child, but also knowing that he would at least give them a normal childhood, and one without no harm done onto them, should any come to them in the near future.

Once the changes were done the man said "It is done now I must go. Take care of her."

He looked at the now blonde haired baby sadly, knowing it will be a long time before he sees her again. He gave the woman a piece of paper and walked out of the house.

The woman smiled at the baby and said "I will protect you forever Violet Lillian Cullen."

Aurthor's note

I thought about doing this story for a while now. Can you guys guess what's going on? Who the man is? The woman is my own character. Read and Review. Might be spanking in later chapters. If you don't like don't read.
