The Return Of Snape [Voldemort X Severus Snape]

chapter 16

"Sectumsempra!" Severus bellowed, wand pointed at the Dark Lord. Voldemort laughed, and dodged it.

"Rubbish!" he screamed back, raising Lucius's wand. The Dark Lord had wanted to practice duelling with the new wand, and Severus was the perfect target. A blue jet of light came out of the wand, and hit Severus on the shoulder, blasting him backwards onto the floor.

Voldemort took off into the air, flying at a high speed towards Severus, who grabbed his wand, aimed it and yelled "Impedimenta!" and the Dark Lord stopped moving, frozen in mid-air.

"Oh you..." Severus was too busy laughing to notice the next curse that hit him was the Cruciatus Curse. He rolled over, panting, thankful the Dark Lord hadn't used it for long.

'Depulso,' Severus thought, the spell hitting Voldemort in the foot, causing him to back flip, and hit the far wall on the other side. Severus then ran across the room, wand pointed to the Dark Lord's throat.

"I'm going easy on you, Sev," Voldemort said, grinning.

"Teach me your flying thing," Severus said, pushing his wand in closer. "Or you die."

The Dark Lord was still smiling. "Really?" he asked, sarcasm dripping from his voice. "Because I thought I was in control here."

"It's my wand pointing to your throat," Severus said, smirking.

It happened at lightening speed. Lucius's wand flew back into Voldemort's hand, and Severus was pushed backwards, sliding half way across the room, and stopping suddenly with a loud bang. He smacked his nose on the ground. Voldemort flew across to him, laughing, and then kicked him over, pointing his own wand at Severus's throat. "Is it?" Voldemort asked, mockingly. "I'm not so sure."

Severus rolled his eyes. "Teach me your flying thing!" he snapped.

"Tut tut, so rude, I will have to teach you some manners... Flagellum!" Severus felt a sharp sting tingle on his body.

"OWCH!" Severus bellowed, raising his wand and thinking 'Expelliarmus!', following it by 'Rictusempra!', and the Dark Lord, after loosing his wand, bent over, laughing hard.

"No!" He said, breathlessly. "Take... Th- This tickling... spell... OFF!"

"When you swear you will teach me," Severus replied, laughing again.

"I... I swear!" Voldemort managed to say, and Severus removed the spell from him. The Dark Lord straightened up, with a smile. "You are a horrible, horrible man, Severus Snape," he chided.

"You have already told me that is why you love me," Severus replied, stepping towards the Dark Lord, and kissing him briefly on the lips. "Now, come."

"Alright, my love. Come and stand down here." He led Severus to the front end of the room. "You need to visualise yourself in the air, similar to wandless magic," Voldemort said, and promptly started to float in the air. Severus took a deep breathe, and did the same, and was soon next to Voldemort in the air. "Alright. Now, keep thinking about how you're going to get to where you want to go... So look, I want to go over there-" He pointed to the back end of the room. "And to get there, all I have to do is think about is going straight ahead." Suddenly, he was zooming towards the other end of the room.

Severus frowned. It was like apparation, but confused. He concentrated on how he was going to get to the other side, by going straight, and suddenly he flying on his way there. "Wow," he said after a moment.

"It's a complex mixture of wandless magic and apparation, very few wizards can do it, only the strongest." Voldemort smiled. "Soon you'll be able to do much more complicated things, just think about how you're going to do it, and it will be easy." He caught hold of Severus's hand, and pulled him out towards the middle of the room, and then took the other hand in his own free one, and pulled him closer to his body, as if they were dancing. They began revolving around each other in the air, lips slowly drawing closer to the others. "Think of the things we could do..." Voldemort whispered, a smirk playing gently on his mouth. Severus smiled, and slowly continued moving inwards, turning his head slightly, speeding up as his lips began to get closer to the Dark Lord's, kissing him hard and passionately for a long time. When they had finally pulled apart, Severus realised they had lost concentration, and had landed.
