It had been mere hours since the awful incident, Adam was long gone and here was Severus Snape in the Lavender household cradling the corpse of his deceased best friend in his arms as the feelings of his tears trailed down his cheeks. How? How! How could he have been late? he tried so hard and yet it still wasn't enough.

It was like Lily all over again he lost the woman he had loved to Voldermort and he couldn't protect her and now he had lost his best friend the woman who had been there for him when he had lost Lily...Why did life have to be so cruel? it just seemed life was toying with him bringing people into Severus's life just to brutally rip the people he cared about away from him but what was different about this was he had actually thought he could prevent the death of someone he cared about he thought this was going to be different and that he could save Emily but just like Lily he was too late again and what made this death so hard to bear apart from the fact that this was his best friend, was that Emily had a daughter named Darcy who had just embarked for Hogwarts School Of Witch Craft And Wizardry.

How the hell was he supposed to tell a young girl that just started her mystical journey to being a poised witch that her mother had been brutally some may even say unjustly murdered...That was the problem, Snape sulked he just couldn't tell her, he couldn't bring himself to tell Darcy that her Mother, Queen but most importantly best friend had passed he couldn't abolish the poor girl, the girl's spirit or life like that he just couldn't even imagine to do it.

'How did this happen? no, why did this happen! How come they had to take her! how come they had to start with Lily and now Emily? I should have been here sooner, I should have known sooner I should have protected her sooner and maybe just MAYBE! I could have prevented this' Severus thought as he sobbed to himself quietly...

What happened you may have asked?, Well, nothing lasts forever but let me tell you a story about a Lavender, a story that took place over a course of time but let's start at the beginning.
