Severus sixth year

Severus jerks awake and looks around the dorm room noticing no one is there. He sighs and sits up. Of course it didn't work. 

He slowly gets up feeling groggy and notices his nails turned black. That's weird. Maybe I just forgot I painted them because of the poison? Severus just shrugs it off. He gets dressed and glances in a mirror pretty sure his eyes flashed red in the reflection. But he ignored that as well since his eyes look there normal black now.

He goes to the great hall and sits with Lucius and Narcissa like he has been since his and Lillys "falling out". They practically adopted the younger slytherin. 

"Hey are you okay?" Narcissa asks. "Lucius said he found you laying on the floor looking half dead." 

"Yeah I'm ok." Severus mumbles and takes a bite of food, he quickly chokes it down instead of spitting it out, the two friends of his taught him etiquette and how to act like a pureblood, spitting out food is a no no, he stares at his plate. Why does that taste so horrid?

"You sure your ok buddy?" Lucius asks wondering when he painted his nails black. Well he has been going through a goth phase the past two years. 

Severus nods and gets up going to the hospital wing. Obviously there is something wrong. He tries to remain calm and makes sure no one is following, especially the stupid muraders. 

When he makes it there safely Madam Pomfry looks at him. "What is it this time?" She asks in a playful tone rolling her eyes and smiling. 

Severus sits on a bed. "I don't know. I. I woke up and. Now food taste bad, Lucius said i looked half dead last night, my nails turned black, and i'm pretty sure my eyes were red for a second." 

Madam Pomfry frowns and does some form of spell then she goes pale. "I need to get Dumbldore." She says and rushes out. 

Severus closes his eyes trying to stay calm. Whatever this is, its obviously not good. 

Dumbldore comes in and walks over to him. Severus looks up and Dumbldore hardly blinks at the dark red eyes staring at him. "Can you tell me what is what you were doing last night Mr. Snape?" Dumbldore asks. 

Severys shakes his head. No way is he going to tell the old man. He never cared about him. That much is shown with the marauders. 

"Well. It seems to me that you are a ghoul. Turns out there are traces of ghoul bloodline in your family tree. Its never been a problem so I never said or done anything about it since the only way it can be triggerd is when that person is murdered or… well. I'm sure you can figure that one out "

So me trying to do that last night. Caused this? "Are you going to send me to Azkaban?" Severus asks. I'm not a gryffindor why would he help me like he does Remus?

"No. We will get you documented with the ministry then find ways to accommodate you. As long as this stays quiet, everything will be ok."

Severus stares at him. Why is he helping me.

"Well. That should be all." Dumbledore says and leaves. 

Madam Pomfry looks at him. "If you ever need to talk. You can." She says softly. 

He nods and goes to leave. "Thank you." He mumbles not noticing the sad looks shes giving him. 

Maybe i'll get a soulmate. Most creatures get one.
