Reflection

Chapter One, The Beginning

Harry Potter, or the boy-who-lived sat at his window in Dudley´s second bedroom at Privet Drive #4, he looked up at the nightsky, hoping that his friend and owl Hedwig would come, but he knew that she wouldn´t. He had practially ordered her to stay with Hermione, after all Ron had Pig and that way they could send letters to eachother without problem, because if Hedwig had stayed with him, she would have been locked in just like he was right now.

Harry´s stomach grumbled, breaking for a short second the painful silence that was in his room.

"If this is the way Tom Riddle was treated, I don´t blame him for hating muggles." he thought and sighed.

Voldemort had chosen the dark path, Harry wouldn´t, at least he had some sense and didn´t believe that all muggles should die because they don´t have magical powers. If all muggles were like the Dursleys, then Hermione wouldn´t be like she was, or Dean, or Seamus, his father was muggle, he knew a lot of people from muggle background who loved their familys.

Harry realized that he rambled in his thoughts, but he knew why it had come to that, he didn´t want to think of what happened less than a month ago with Cedric, Voldemort´s re-birth, Barty Crouch Jr. and everything else. While he sat there and got lost in thought his stomach grumbled again.

" Stop it." he said bitterly. Since he got back to the Dursleys three weeks ago, he had eaten the total of two cans of cold vegetable soup, three apples that Dudley had taken one bite of each and then trew away, and three pieces of toast. He had also gotten a two feet list of chores to do everyday, vakuum the house, clean Dudley´s room, weed the garden, paint the fence, and those he had to do in the garden, was usually the once he had to do in the middle of the day, when the sun stood the highest, which always gave him sunburns. If it were not enough that he was tortured during the day, he hadn´t had one night of rest since the day of the third task when he had gotten dreamless sleep-potion.

Due to the lack of sleep and food, and being in the sun for so long everyday, Harry had gotten a fever four days ago and was feeling very ill.

He got up to go and get some more sleep, he wasn´t up in the middle of the night for nothing, the Death eater-meetings were cruel, Voldemort had used every chance he got to punish those who could, but didn´t, seek him out when he first disappeared when Harry was a year old.

He got up, but had to sit down again, since he saw stars before his eyes. "Ooh, not good."

Harry manged to get to his bed, and just then, an envelope appeared out of no where, it was glowing in faint lilac, and it sailed over to Harry.

"What the...?" Should he open it? It could be a trick from Voldemort.

Harry shook his head and put the letter under the loose floorboard. He wasn´t going to give in for curiosity any more, when the headmaster or someone else he could trust said that it was safe to open, he would open it. If it could be something dangerous, he would leave it alone until he was sure it wasn´t.

With that in thought he went, once again, into a worried sleep.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--Hogwart, Severus Snape´s Rooms--

Snape was sitting in the armchair by the fireplace and reading through his notes on improvement on the wolfsbane-potion, when a lilac light flashed in front of him, he got up with his wand out in no time, ready to fight of the possible threat, when he saw a pendant of a lily hoovering before him.

"Lily?" he whispered, that was the pendant he had given her when they were fifteen years old and still attending Hogwarts. He reached out to grab it, and when he did the lilac light surrounded his hand and he fell to his knees, while gripping his head, it felt as if someone dug through his skull in search for something.

--Flashback--

"Severus I have wonderful news. I´m pregnant!" his smiling fiancé gave him a kiss. "Pregnant? I´m going to be a father?" Severus thought shellshocked for a moment then he laughed and twirled his beautiful, wonderful fiancé round and kissed her. He smiled at her, and then the smile vanished faster then it had appeared.

"Severus? What´s the matter? "

"You must hide. You know that I am a spy for Albus, If Voldemort finds out that I had a child he is going to demand that I bring it to him. " he was devastated, he had longed the day when she would tell him about they having a child togheter, and now it was ruined because of Voldemort.

"You must, if you love me and our unborn child, you will go into hiding, and you will obliviate me of the knowledge you have given me. When it is safe you can give me back my memory and then I can be happy with you and our child." he kissed her, she was crying.

"Why must you be so noble Severus Snape? I thought that that was a Gryffindor trait." the last part said in a whisper. "I will do as you say, but Merlin and Morgana have mercy on your soul if you die, or I swear, I will find a way to bring you back to life then I will kill you myself in a very painful way, and I will bring you back again and I will never let you go." she cried and he held her.

"I love you"

--New flashback--

This wasn´t Severus´ memory, he could tell, since he wasn´t there, but he saw it non the less.

"Come on, push"

"AAAAHHHhh!"

"James, stop messing with your hair, this isn´t the time to think of appearance." his wife and her best friend shouted at him. He was just nervous, he wasn´t thinking how his hair looked.

"Just one more puuush, aand...there." a babys cry was heard.

"Congratulations, miss Williams, it´s a healthy baby boy." the mediwitch gave Jocelyn Williams her baby son and left the room.

"Ooh Joyce, he´s beautiful." Lily Potter said looking at the baby. " He has your eyes"

"Yeah, but they´re in the shape of Severus´ , see they aren´t as round as mine" Jocelyn, or Joyce said holding her little boy.

James, Lily´s husband, came forward to look at the baby, when he saw the baby, he let out a sound of disgust which made Joyce and Lily look at him in suprise.

"Come on, this is unacceptable, that kid is going to have me wrapped around his little finger. How can something that descend from Snape be so cute." the women looked at him for a second and then they laughted at James, who grinned.

"May I hold him?" James asked, Jocelyn nodded and handed him his soon-to-be surrogate son.

"Thank you for doing this, for taking him in, I just wish I could keep him with me, but as it is, it´s impossible." she sighed and had tears in her eyes.

"Should we do the spell now? " Lily asked,

"We should, lets just remove the pregnancy glamorie on you first," James waved his wand at Lily and her belly shrunk a bit.

"It will be gone in a month at the most."

"Okey, now, James a hair please, thank you, aaand one of mine." Lily said and took the hairs and placed them on the tip of her wand and muttered a incantation, a red light emerged from the wand and incircled the hairs, it turned into a bracelet. They placed the bracelet on the baby´s tiny wrist and another red light was seen, the baby looked different and the bracelet sunk into the wrist.

"Now he got your eyes"Joyce said,

"And James´ unruly mop of hair" Lily said, trying to make her friend smile. She got a sad smile for her efforts.

"Hey Joyce, cheer up it´s not like you never will see him again, and Snape he will stay alive just to rub it in my face that this adorable kid is his." James said, grinning.

"What about his name?" Lily wondered.

"I have two birth certificates, one with his real name and parents, and one with you as his parents, as well as your choice of name." she handed one to Lily.

Name:

D.o.b: July 31th, 00.07a.m

Mother: Lily Michaela Potter-Evans

Father: James Rufus Potter

Godmother: Jocelyn Jade Williams

Godfather:

"What are we going to name him?"

"James Jr.?" James said with a hopful tone, the two women looked at him, then looked at eachother, then back at him and laughed.

"No, I don´t think so" James pouted, but then smiled.

"Rufus?" the women laughed even harder.

"Jason?" they shook their heads.

"Harry?"

"That´s a nice name, lets go with that." Lily wrote down Harry James Potter on the paper, and James who stood behind her smiled.

"And who will you appoint to be his godfather?" Joyce asked

"Remus."

"Sirius"

They said in unison, then looked at eachother. If Jocelyn ever saw to more stubborn people in her life...she smiled at her friends.

"Lily, Remus would not be allowed to take Harry in because of him being a werewolf." she said in a sad tone, Remus was much more responsible than Sirius, but that didn´t mean that she didn´t like the dog-animagus, he would spoil Harry rotten.

"Fine, then we will have Sirius" she wasn´t to upset with it, Remus could always become ´Uncle Remus´. She wrote down Sirius Orion Black.

"What will be his real name then?" James asked.

"Sebastian Severus Williams, since Severus and I aren´t married...yet"

--New Flashback--

This wasn´t one of his memories either.

Lily sat at a desk and beside her sat Harry, playing with a stuffed stag, she smiled and returned to the letter she was writing, she finished it and put it in an envelope, then she took of her necklace with a lily pendant. She kissed it lightly and put it down beside the envelope. She stood up and pointed her wand at the envelope.

"Recieve this in fifteen years Harry James Potter, because if you do, then I have not lived to tell you the truth." The envelope disapeared in a lilac light. Then she sat down again and lifted the pendant, she took the wand to the side of her head and pulled out something silvery and brought it to the pendant, the pendant absorbed it and she did the same thing once more. Then she put a memory restoring charm on it.

"Severus, my brother in all but blood, recieve this in fifteen years, to restore your memory, and bring you new light in watching mine, know that what seem to by the son of James and I is indeed your´s and Joyce´s." the pendant disappeared in lilac light just as the envelope.

--End flashbacks--

Severus was on his hands and knees in his rooms at Hogwarts, tears escaped his eyes, he was shaking badly.

"What have I done! He´s my son, MY SON!" A sob escaped his lips, his mask was breaking apart fast, and soon, the potion master of Hogwarts was sitting on the floor leaning on the armchair, sobbed and cried, he roared about the injustice of the world, and angry with himself for treating the boy that way. His fiancé had been found dead a month before Voldemort´s demise, and he had not cried since then. An hour later he collected himself, he went to the bathroom and splashed some water in his face, and straighted up as much as possible, he put up a small glamorie to hide the tear stains.

He desided that he would need to talk to Po..Har..Seba.., he sighed, the boy anyway. He went to get his cloak when he caught sight of the time. He groaned "Three a.m. I have to wait at least four hours." That was not an encouraging thought, how was he supposed to sleep? He sat down in his armchair and summoned a cup of strong coffe.

-----------------------------------------------

Harry woke up at five when his uncle banged at his door.

"Get up boy, I want breakfast ready at seven, start on your chores in the mean time."

"Yes uncle Vernon." he scowled at the thought that the Dursleys treated him like a houseelf. "Do this, do that, you should be greatful that we´re not leaving you at an orphanage, your aunt and I took you in at the goodness of our hearts" Harry scowled deeper, "Hearts? What a load of crap" he got dressed and went downstairs to start cleaning, he started to dust the living room, then he polished the silver. He looked at the time, six thirty, and went to the kitchen to start breakfast, when he fried the eggs and bacon he started to feel sick and light-headed, he hurried to finish it and then he wobbled out to the backgarden, and he dry-heaved behind a bush. The fever really getting to him now, he started to feel dissy and cold. He passed out in the grass, thinking "I need help"

One hour later, he woke up hearing raised voices from inside, he felt so bad he didn´t dare to move, but he tried to listen through the open hall window.

"GET OUT OF HERE YOU FREAK, I WON´T HAVE YOU COMMING INTO MY HOUSE AND TREATNING MY FAMILY!" Harry´s eyes wided at the thought of a death eater being in the house, his wand was locked away together with his trunk. He tried to hear who it was that had come but he couldn´t hear a reply to his uncle´s treaths.

"THERE IS NO ONE BY THE NAME HARRY POTTER LIVING HERE, NOW GET OUT BEFORE I CALL THE POLICE!" Whoever it was, he was looking for Harry, and Harry was laying defenceless in the grass.

"DON´T MENTION THAT FREAK SCHOOL IN MY HOUSE, AND THE BOY IS NOT GOING TO BE BROUGHT THERE, HE IS STAYING HERE." Harry sighed in relief, whoever was here was going to bring him to Hogwarts, and smiled at the thought that his uncle just said that indeed there was a Harry Potter living here, when aunt Petunia just said that he didn´t live there. At that moment, Dudley came running out the back garden and saw Harry laying on the ground looking really ill. He went over to him and kicked him in the stomach, Harry groaned and held his stomach.

"TELL THAT FREAK TO GO AWAY, DADDY SAID THAT YOU AREN´T ALLOWED TO GO ANYWHERE!" Dudley shouted at him, the voices inside stopped.

--Severus pov.--

Severus left Hogwarts at seven thirty, thinking that the boy would perhaps be up, and if he wasn´t, well, he could always wake him. He took a carrige to Hogsmead and apparated to Surrey. He looked around and saw that every house looked exactly the same, with exeption from the flowers in the flowerbed and the cars on the driveway. He walked towards Privet Drive, and five minutes later he knocked at the door of #4. A horse looking woman with blond hair opened the door.

"Yes?"she asked as she took in the stranger´s apperance, he was wearing black slacks and a long sleeved black t-shirt and a black jacket, he had clean shoulder lenght black hair and his onyx eyes glimmered with something she couldn´t place.

"Is this the Dursley´s resident?" he asked politely.

"Yes, I´m Petunia Dursley, how can I help you?"

"I´m here to talk with one Harry Potter, he is your nephew if I´m correct." Petunia shrieked and slammed the door in his face. Severus stood shocked for less then a second, he knocked again and when he didn´t recieve an answer, he took out his wand.

"Alohomora." the door opened and he stepped inside, Vernon and Petunia told him to get out and glared at him. "Hmmpf, amatures." He thought and gave them one of his glares. They stepped back and a boy in the size of a baby whale was hiding behind his parents, pressing both his hands on his behind.

"GET OUT OF HERE YOU FREAK, I WON´T HAVE YOU COMMING INTO MY HOUSE AND TREATHNING MY FAMILY!" the man shouted, his face turning purple.

"As I said to your wife, I am here to speak to Harry Potter.."

"THERE IS NO ONE BY THE NAME HARRY POTTER LIVING HERE, NOW GET OUT BEFORE I CALL THE POLICE!" Petunia shrieked, holding on to her husband.

"I know the boy lives here, and if you won´t allow my in your house, I will bring him to Hogwarts and talk to him there, but talk to him I will so tell me were he is." he said in an icy voice. "These muggles can´t be for real, how can Harry be sane growing up in this house?"

"DON´T MENTION THAT FREAK SCHOOL IN MY HOUSE, AND THE BOY IS NOT GOING TO BE BROUGHT THERE, HE IS STAYING HERE." Severus saw the fat boy run outside to the garden.

"Listen to me Dursley, if I want to speak to Potter, I am going to speak with him, and no muggle cou..." Severus stopped as he heard a loud groan followed by the fat boy shouting

"TELL THAT FREAK TO GO AWAY, DADDY SAID THAT YOU AREN´T ALLOWED TO GO ANYWHERE!" he rushed past Dursley and his wife and out the garden were he saw that fat kid aiming to kick Harry.

"STUPEFY" he was beyond angry, he was furious, but his mask of indifference were firmly on. He stunned the two elder Dursley´s too and went over to Harry.

--Normal pov--

"Mr Potter?" Severus asked in a neutral voice, not wanting to scare the boy by sounding concerned.

Harry lay on his side cluthing his stomach were Dudley had kicked him, his head was aching from the fever as well as making him feeling sick and he was freezing.

Severus knelt down beside the boy putting a hand on Harry´s upper arm. The boy looked up and his eyes grew as he saw who it was that was there.

"Profess´r Snape?" Severus looked at Harry´s eyes and saw them glassed over, the boy was definitly ill.

"Mr Potter, I came here to discuss something with you, but as I see that you are not well I will bring you with me to Hogwarts, allright?" better ask then just take the child and make him think he is being kidnapped. Harry nodded, keeping his head on the ground trying to move as little as possible. Severus saw this.

"Potter? How long have you been ill? he asked, sounding a little concerned.

"Why would Snape be concerned over me? It´s not like he cares." Harry thought but answered anyway.

"About five days ago, I think. Why?"

"Five days! Where are your things Potter, we must leave for Hogwarts as soon as possible." Severus was trying not to sound stressed.

Harry looked at his professor with confusion, the man was getting all worked up, was he really that ill?

"Umm, in the cupboard under the stairs, my trunk and broom, and Hedwig´s cage." Severus hurried to unlock the cupboard and he shrunk the items and put them in his pocked. He went outside again and saw that Harry was laying on his back holding his head.

"Potter? You all right?" Receiving a grunt for answer he said "Potter, your vocabulary impresses me." he said with little of his usually sarcasm. Harry chuckled,

"Wow, I managed to impress the great potion master of Hogwarts, no one is going to believe me" Severus smirked.

"Is there something else you need"

"No, I don´t thi.. no wait! Last night I got a letter, " Severus froze, what had been told in that letter? "... it´s under the floorboard under my bed, second bedroom to the left." Severus nodded and went once again into the house stepping over Petunia´s body. He went upstairs and saw the room, the door had a dozen locks in one shape or the other, and when he went into the room he got even less impressed, bookshelfs with broken toys stood on one side, something made him think that those weren´t Harry´s, the bed had a lumpy matress one flat pillow and a thin sheet that look like it has been used as a blanket. Severus frowned. He took out the letter from the floorboard and saw it to his surprise unopened. "The boy must have grown a brain and realized the potentiall danger, smart boy" He hurried back out since Harry needed medical care as soon as possible.

He saw the boy shaking when he got out, and he conjured a warm blanket. He knelt beside Harry and wrapped the blanket around him. Harry looked horrified at the idea of his teacher tucking him in a blanket, but submitted to the warmth of the blanket, he almost didn´t realize when his professor bent down and reached under his knees and back, and lifted him holding him close to his chest. Harry felt embaressed and tried to tell the professor that he didn´t have to carry him.

"Mr Potter, you are quite ill and in no possition to argue with me, and I doubt that you could take one step without falling. We need to get to the apparation-point quickly."

"All right" Harry felt his cheeks growing hot, of the illness or the fact that he is being carried by his potion professor, he could not tell. Soon he gave in to the fact that he couldn´t keep his eyes open, so he fell asleep leaning on his professor´s arm.

When they reached the apparation-point, Severus went to an alley and apparated away. Even if he had cast a notice-me-not charm, as well as a disillusion-charm over himself and the boy he wanted to make sure no one saw him, after all he was still a spy.
