They continued their meal until students began to return to their dormitory.

"Excuse me..." Snape was leaving the place when he heard someone call him and looked towards a girl watching him with some shyness.

This was Lucinda Burke (OC), a student who had spoken to him yesterday in the transfiguration class.

"Yes?" Snape asked.

"I heard your conversation... that you don't know the password..." She said, looking at him.

"You know it?" Snape asked, as he would not deny the house password and avoid having to destroy the place for the third time.

"Yes, it is: always, always, pure blood..." She spoke.

"That's the password, what narcissistic prejudiced nonsense, who was the purist jerk who came up with such a thing?" Snape asked the girl who was surprised by this, as were all those who heard, looking at him shocked.

Snape just shook his head and turned his feet towards the exit, calmly heading outside while some monitors coordinated them to return to their house halls.

As he approached the door with some students already entering, and him not needing to say that stupid phrase, someone approached him.

Lucius, who had followed him from then, finally caught up to him before even reaching the common room, with many people watching them as they passed through the corridors.

"Snape..." Lucius spoke with a tone of frustration, due to how Snape had dismissed him yesterday.

"What is it?" Snape commented, not caring to be polite. Despite this boy having helped a few times in the past, he just wanted to benefit from it.

"I want to talk to you and it needs to be alone," he said, after all, the matter was delicate when it involved the Dark Lord. Snape listened to him, looking into Lucius's eyes and sighed, realizing that he would have to have this conversation anyway.

"Alright," he said while Lucius nodded.

He then followed towards a corridor on another path, while Lucius approached a monitor. The monitor looked at the two, but Lucius just stared at him, making the monitor clear the way.

"It's clear, Lucius." He said as Lucius nodded and went ahead entering a dead-end corridor while the monitor seemed to be guarding the place.

'Interesting... it's a completely isolated place...' Snape could not help commenting as he saw no paintings on the walls, showing how isolated this place was.

They reached the end, and yet Lucius took out his wand and began making a movement, isolating the area from sound so no one could hear, just to be cautious.

"Well, Snape, it seems we're finally going to talk," Lucius commented. Snape remained silent.

"I've never heard you behave like this, Snape. I know you've changed physically due to a type of potion, but your personality is very different from what I knew," he spoke calmly.

"People always change," Snape just shrugged.

Despite Lucius not liking that answer, he continued. "Anyway," Lucius went on, "I want to talk about our agreement. Will you give me an answer? After all, the Dark Lord would want someone like you," he spoke. Lucius heard his father's request to bring Snape to the Death Eaters, Lucius even managed to speak with Snape before the boy took his life, but he still hadn't given an answer, saying he would think about it.
