Diagon Alley/Knockturn Alley

Severus ran through Diagon Alley towards Madam Malkin's Robes for All Occasions after a great(not) sleep. He didn't care much if his parents noticed him gone, they were such bothers. Though it was good to be quick.

Severus then accidentally bumped in to someone, knocking them over. "I'm so sorry sir, I'm in a bit of a rush." he said, holding out a hand to help him.

The person gracefully took his hand and stood back up, looking at Severus with annoyance lacing through his features.

Severus gasped as he looked in to the face of the man. It was familiar. And he knew exactly who it was.

"My-ahem-Riddle?" Severus caught himself, recognising the man as Voldemort wearing his disguise when going out.

Voldemort-in-disguise allowed a faint look of shock to grace his features and he narrowed his eyes, "And you are?"

"Severus Snape." Severus crossed his arms against his chest.

"Well Severus, how do you know who I am?" Voldemort glared, his disguise was impeccable. How would a mere child find out? Lucky for the child, he wasn't feeling like making a scene today. Which indeed was rare.

"That's my secret. Now, forgive me, I must leave. Perhaps we can have this conversation another time?" Severus said, and with a nod he was gone.

Severus stepped in to Madam Malkin's Robes for All Occasions and heads turned his way.

Severus glared at them and said, "What, never seen a child before?"

Madam Malkin walked towards him and smiled.

"Are you lost dear? Where are your parents?"

Severus sneered, Wasn't eleven an old enough age to go around unsupervised?

"I am certainly not lost, I'll have you know. I need robes for Hogwarts."

"Ahh yes stand on this stool please."

Severus stood on the stool and Madam Malkin slipped a long robe over his head, beginning to pin it to the right length.

"Hullo." Severus heard from a boy next to him.

Severus turned slowly and instantly recognised who it was. After all, who wouldn't recognise the pale pointed face with blond hair and cold grey eyes?

Lucius Malfoy.

"Heir Malfoy."

Lucius smirked and asked, "First time at Hogwarts?"

Well no, but he couldn't very well say that could he?

"Mhm."

"Hogwarts is amazing, you'll love it. There's four houses; Slytherin, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff and bloody Gryffindor. You better not get in Gryffindor, the little roaches strutting about as if they own the place! Oh, I'm Slytherin Prefect this year!"

"Allow me to extend my congratulations." Severus said.

"You know, you don't talk like a first year would." Lucius pondered thoughtfully "Well anyway. You Half-blood?"

"No."

"Mudblood?" Lucius spat, causing Severus to glare at him.

"No."

"YOU'RE A PUREBLOOD?!"

Severus rolled his eyes, "Obviously."

Lucius raised his eyebrows, "I'm fairly certain I've never met you, yet I've been to every party Father has hosted with all purebloods. What house are you heir to?"
