Chapter 48

The Mutt Returns

Severus watched Draco shrug his shoulders and follow Potter into the flat without question. The potions master wished that his godson had decided that they should leave after seeing that she was alright. Instead, Severus found himself walking into an unfamiliar flat that smelled of expensive perfumes and was decorated with modern furniture. 

He heard voices coming from a small nook a few meters away. There was a small kitchen there and George Weasley was sitting in a chair with his head back and his eyes were closed. Potter had an ice pack over his eye and had a hand on one of his shoulders as she whispered something in his ear. Draco had seated himself on the counted across from them.

The ginger muttered something along the lines of "good to know" and eventually took the ice pack from Potter's hands and let it sit on his face without her help.

"Do you mind telling me what happened?" Severus snapped, tired of watching the scene in front of him.

Potter sighed, "My Uncle is a disgusting human being and tried to get me alone all summer. You can imagine the different things that he'd want to do to me. I warded myself in my room with runes I had learned and kept to myself. Towards the end of the first week in the house started to feel weak. I knew that I needed George near me, so I got in contact with him and he came to my rescue. Luckily, my Uncle didn't find out. It wasn't until today that he even knew of George's existence. When he broke through the wall a lot of things exploded and something hit George in the eye. We came straight here. Fleur is getting ready for a job interview. She had told me about this flat a few weeks ago and wanted me to see it. It was the first place that came to mind when we needed to get out," she explained quickly and Severus couldn't if she was telling the truth.

"For some reason I doubt that you're being honest with me, Potter," he sneered and she huffed.

"Fine, would you rather I show you?" She challenged. Severus raised his wand at the invitation. Draco hopped off the counter and was bout to stop his godfather, but Harri shook her head.

The potions master walked up to the girl and brought his wand to her face, making direct eye contact with her, "Legilimens!"

Severus could feel himself enter her mind smoothly and found himself in front of a large manor. Potter, or at least a subconscious version was standing near a marble entryway, arms crossed.

"Welcome to the world of my memories. I'm here to guid you through my mind safely. There are a lot of traps set in various rooms, so don't stray too far," she warned walking through the large entryway. Severus raised an eyebrow. He didn't expect her mind to be so well protected, then again, Black was a pureblood and the majority of them are forced to learn Occlumency at a young age. He probably taught Potter.

When the potions master entered the home he found himself in Petunia's house. The door slammed behind him and Potter was sitting in the staircase, watching him with Lily's green eyes. 

"This memory is from the first day that I arrived. Dinner had just been served. Follow me to the kitchen," Potter said getting up quickly and walking silently towards the kitchen.

When they entered the subconscious version of Potter was leaning on a wall, watching her family eat dinner. Two whales, a horse and Potter were sitting at the table. Potter was eating silently while the two whales stared at her with lust in their eyes. Severus could see her pull out a necklace and shine it in their faces. He saw that it had a rune to repel people etched into it, obviously the men in front of her were rather thick because they didn't stop. Potter frowned and looked at the marking, trying to figure out what was wrong with it...
