"Snape." Snape heard someone call him; it was Friday night while he was checking out some more things in the school library.

"Narcisa?!" Snape looked between the shelves as a blonde girl watched him from between the bars of the restricted section.

"Are you busy right now? We need to talk... it's urgent..." she said, and Snape nodded, standing to leave and approached the girl.

"Something wrong?" he asked, exiting the area; Narcisa rarely sought him out.

"Yes... can we go somewhere more private?" she requested, and Snape nodded, taking her arm, surprising the girl, and disappearing like a shadow.

They reappeared in the secret hall where Snape usually trains alone, more a storeroom than a room for practicing magic, but Snape liked the place because he was the only one to enter there while having space to train.

"What place is this... wait, what was that... You learned apparition?" Narcisa asked, surprised when she realized they had teleported.

"No, it's another magic, but that's not the point, what do you want?" he asked.

They sighed and decided to get straight to the conversation, but first, she was curious about another thing that she couldn't wait to ask. "Did you take Bellatrix's wand?" she inquired.

"Yes. And I will not return it if you ask." Snape spoke calmly.

"I wouldn't ask for it." Narcisa said. "But how did that happen?" She wanted to know Snape's version.

"You should ask the people who saw; I simply found someone who wanted to be hit and did what she asked," Snape said.

"I heard... it's just so surreal hearing all that..." Narcisa murmured. "Anyway..." She regained a much more serious look.

"I'd like you not to leave the castle tomorrow," she said in a very serious tone.

"Why is that?" he asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Remember when we first talked this year... there will be an attack... by some Death Eaters..." she said.

Snape looked at that, raising an eyebrow but with a bit of interest. "And I can suppose that almost all the Slytherin students know about this and they will not be attacked?" Snape scoffed.

Narcisa looked and nodded. "Yes, they aim to attack Muggle-born students, as You-Know-Who is wanting to start acting against Dumbledore..." she said.

"Dumbledore would let this happen?" Snape asked.

"In fact, he will... he left tonight, he will not be at school this weekend, when they will act," she said.

"I see..." Snape admitted. "Well, thank you for letting me know," Snape said simply.

"Is that all?" She raised an eyebrow at him.

"I heard very well, but still, I plan to go to Hogsmeade..." he said, determined. Snape would not hide for a bunch of clowns in skull masks like the ones in the newspapers.

"I think you don't understand, Severus. I'm telling you this because, as I said a long time ago, they might see you as a target, and it's very likely that they will, after all, you've made many enemies these months," she said with a concerned tone, but Snape continued shaking his head.
