Purging The World In The Blood of an Angel
Black Beyond
Epilogue
Severus Snape was alone in his chambers, a shot glass in one hand and a bottle in the other. He was so lost in himself he did not hear the first soft knock at his door. He heard the second and ignored it. The third shook him to his senses and he growled.
It had been a year since she left him without warning. The twins were gone from his days but that insufferable Potter and his two tagalongs were still here.
Since she had left, he had only became worse. He had not stepped out of the castle since that battle; he could not or Voldemort would be on him in an instant. He was a useless prisoner, and his temper had not improved.
He walked to the door on unsure feet and threw the door open.
He had to be so drunk. He threw an uneasy glance back at the bottle he had abandoned... what was in magical alcohol, anyway?... and then he looked back at what stood before him.
His silver angel, her wings and symbol hidden, dressed in a simple black robe. His silver angel... the one he had so foolishly fallen in love with, in that indescribable moment in her arms...
"Usagi?" He asked stupidly.
she smiled up at him, her gray eyes quiet and demure. "I came back to say hello for a few days, Severus. Dumbledore doesn't know I'm here yet..." She took a step towards him and was embraced by the darkness of the room, sandalwood washing over her in a combination of sensual herbs and scents.
He just stood there, before taking two steps backward, and almost falling. She closed and locked the door behind her, and turned to smile at him again. "Want to talk before I see the Headmaster?" She asked.
"...talk..." He repeated, at a loss in his drunken state. She grinned and waved a hand towards him, and his sober mind washed over him quickly.
It took only a second for him to realize what was going on. His brain computed her request to talk and he scorned it. Before he could think about what he was doing, he took a gliding step and encircled her in his arms, his lips seeking out her own. He kissed her chastely, his body screaming to be close to her. He couldn't let go of her now, not ever, he had missed her too much.
She closed her eyes and kissed him back, while something in her own mind whispered that she was a monster and shouldn't be doing this. His hands came up to bury themselves in her long, luxurious hair, like liquid satin under his calloused fingers.
Before, her embrace had been a sexless ecstasy that he could not have voluntarily stepped away from if his life had depended on it.
This embrace was so very different. Sensuality hung from her every limb like ripe fruit on a tree, inviting him, luring him closer to her. The alcohol was gone from his mind but that didn't stop him from not doing as logic demanded, offer her a seat and talk for a while like civilized people.
He had never thought much of civilization anyway.
He pulled away from her and ran his fingers down her cheek and cupped her chin softly, lifting her face up to look at him. Her eyes were heavy and a little confused, and guilty.
She moved away and laid her head on his chest, hugging him close to her. "Severus, why have you been drinking?" She asked.
"To make me forget you." He held her tightly to him.
"Well, You don't have to do that anymore."

Alright, folks.
I've been thinking about this for weeks. With much regret and indecision, I am finishing the story here. I have completely lost interest in the story, and I am out of ideas. I would like leave to focus on my other fanfiction, and I feel this is as good a place as any to leave this story.
If anyone wishes to make a fic from this universe, using these characters, you are more than welcome to, I only ask you give credit where credit is due.
I am sorry for any upset... I realize this has been one of my more popular fics. It has just been a very long time since I wrote on this story and I am regrettably not the same person I was then.
I will continue to work on my other fanfics... Perhaps my other fics will keep you entertained.
And for those of you who asked me not to have a Usa/Severus romance...
NYAAAAH!
