Voldemort was positively gleeful over the death of his rival Albus Dumbledore. Never mind the fact that it didn't go quite as planned. Because of the Dark Lord's joy and jubilation Severus was given a new position. A position, which would allow the death eaters to take Ahold of Hogwarts, and the training of its students.
Severus tossed and turned in his sleep that night, instead of peaceful and restful dreams his sleep was plagued with nightmares. He had horrid nightmares about the Dark lords familiar Nagini killing him. Then the dream would change and he would see his sister in her human form, holding his motionless, and lifeless body as his life's blood drained and the gift of life slid away into the darkness that surrounded him.
The last part of his dream was the part that sent him over the edge. The last and most horrifying part of his dream consisted of his sister confronting her father. In the dream she gave it all she had pouring every ounce of her strength and magical power into the spell that she used against him. In the end he awoke screaming as a flash of green light and the words avada kadavera rang through his mind.
He sat bolt upright in bed screaming and clutching the arm that had the dark mark on it. Realizing that he was being summoned by the dark lord he quickly jumped from his bed and ran a comb through his hair attempting to tame it before aparating away. Severus disapparated in front of Malfoy manor and walked through the heavy wrought iron gate as if it were nothing more than smoke.
He walked purposefully and quickly up the front doors of the grand manor house and entered knowing exactly where to go. As he reached the grand dining room where everyone was seated the first thing he was sure to notice was the fact that his old colleague Charity Burbage was floating in midair above the table. None in the room paid any attention to the floating body except for one lone face that stared with a mixture of pity and fear on his pale face.
"Severus, I was beginning to think you've lost your way," said the Dark Lord as Severus entered the room. "Come, we've saved you a seat. You've brought news I'd Trust," asked the dark lord?
"They will move the potter boy next Saturday at nightfall," said Severus in a cold tone.
"I've heard differently my lord, Dollish the auror has let slip the fact that the potter boy will not be moved until his birthday," said Dollarhoff.
"This Is a false trail; the auror office no longer plays part in the protection of Harry potter. Those closest to the boy believe that we have infiltrated the ministry of magic," said Severus.
"Well, they've got one thing right don't they," laughed one of the dark lords death eaters.
"What do you have to say about the matter Pius," asked the dark lord in a smooth voice?
"One hears many things my lord, weather the truth is among them remains to be seen," said Pius.
"Spoken like a true politician. I think you will prove yourself to be most useful Pious," said the dark lord as he got to his feet and started to walk around the room.
"Where would the boy be taken," asked Voldemort as he looked at Severus?
"The boy will be taken to a safe house, most likely the residents of one of the members of the order. I am told that the location has been given all manner of protection. Once the boy is there it would be impractical to attack him once he's there," said Severus calmly.
After watching the wand of his best friend, Lucius Malfoy have the handle snapped off of it and tossed back and hit the owner, Severus had the added horror of watching on in silence as the motionless suspended form of Miss Charity Burbage floated over the table of onlookers. In that instant he knew that her life was over.
