      |You and Professor Snape arrive in Dumbledore's office|
    Dumbledore greets you,
  "Ah y/n, how are you feeling today? Can I interest you in some chocolate frogs?"
"Oh I'm fine thank you, I don't particularly fancy chocolate"
Snape shoots Albus a look, as if he's trying to speed things up.
"Well y/n, I don't want you to worry" -Dumbledore begins to pace around the room-" But you see I'm afraid we have reason to think you are being targeted by  Lord Voldemort"
Your eyes widen
"I-"...you pause. "I see 'him' in my dreams sometimes....I- I recently found out I can also speak Parseltongue"
You see a glint in Snape's eye
"Why didn't you say anything! How could you be so ignorant to let this sl-"
"Severus Thats enough."
After explaining how long you've been having these dreams Dumbledore sends you off with Snape back to your dorm.
He turns to face you in the hall right outside Slytherin house.
"If you have another dream concerning 'he who shall not be named' come straight to me, I don't want excuses that could put you and this entire establishment in danger"
His words laced with venom
"Yes professor" Was all you managed to get out.
Snape left you to yourself as you gather your things for your classes after lunch.

Time Skip< 11:42 pm
Everyone in your dorm was asleep, except for you of course. Being the only one awake seemed to alter reality, you decided to take a walk, making sure to return without being noticed. |
I slip on a forest green t shirt, some blue jeans and my f/c vans and grabbed my beautiful black dragon heartstring core wand.
Wow, these halls are so peaceful with everyone else asleep. Its almost poetic.
YOU HEAR FOOTSTEPS BEHIND YOU
'Shit' you speed up your pace and jump around the corner of the corridor. Almost running to get back to your dorm in fear of being berated you realize you are lost, but are rather close to the doors leading outside. The "Why Not" version of yourself is beyond self destructive but eh who cares. Making your way outside and b-lining it to the forest, after walking what felt like 20 minutes, you find a clearing with a spring and some flowers. Sitting in silence until broken by a low, primal growl. Frozen in fear. Reluctantly you turn around to see a drooling, snarling, some sort of wolf bear spider hybrid staring down at you.
Whipping out your wand you scream,
"DIFFINDO!" Ripping off 3 of the creatures spider like arms, to no luck as they regenerate faster than you can say-
"AH FUCK"
The creature slashes its claws across your neck and chest.
You manage to get your footing and sprint, the creature close behind.
Casting spells behind you in an attempt to gain some distance.
Turning around face to face with the beast yelling
"CONFRINGO"
The beast bursts into flames as you continue to sprint away.
The beast no longer to be seen you trek your way out of the forest, the pain begins to creep up on you, blood loss and dirt painted very generously all over your face and clothes.
Dizziness came when the blood loss finally caught up to you. The gashes on your chest were deep, making the wound on your neck seem like a mere scratch.
Time<4:36
After walking for hours, barely hanging on to consciousness you make your way out of the forest. Stumbling inside you attempt to find your way to your house. Turning a corner without looking up you slam into a tall dark figure, instantly regaining your footing in hopes good posture will distract whoever this person in question is from noticing your near dead form.
Fuckfuckfuckfyvkgucjfshb
"Miss y/l/n , to find you foolishly roaming the halls, lumos"
He waves his wand up to your face, a worried look painting his face instantly realizing your state.
Grabbing your arm he begins to lead you to what you assume to be his room, stopping in your tracks after finally slipping from consciousness, the world not totally going black before realizing someone caught your fall.
Time:<5:02 am
You wake up shortly after on a couch with your chest bandaged in some sort of moss, the skin remarkably sealed without a seem but the giant black and purple bruise keeps you humble. Your breasts also concealed under the bandage- remembering who brought you here your breath hitches in your throat, turning a dark shade of crimson.
Startled by a sudden break in silence
"Now that you're awake, you can explain to me how you almost got yourself killed, past curfew soiled in blood stumbling around the halls isn't a good look for a Slytherin."
He hands you a blanket and you take it with a thank you, covering yourself.
"Well I just- wanted to take a short walk and then I foolishly chose to go into the forest on a whim and I fell down this hill- I'm- Im sorry please accept my apology it wont happen again"

An uncomfortable pause followed.

"Sticks and rocks don't have 4 inch claws. Weeks detention, after classes you will come to my classroom and clean, dust, organize until curfew."
"Yes professor, thanks for the uh help by the way"

"Im not going to sit there and watch one of my students die after some joy ride gone wrong. I do not commend you for this stupid mistake but I commend the resilience, even if said resilience is fueled by utter ignorance. There is a shirt on the dresser, you may see your way directly to your dorm until breakfast"

"Thank you, Professor"

Snape walks into another part of the room to let you slip on a rather oversized black long sleeve.
Slipping out of his room you finally found your house dorm and immediately hopped in the shower to scrub off the layer of blood and grime plastered to your skin.
Surprisingly awake from the nights gifted adrenaline you hop out, dry your hair, moisturize and apply some light makeup to your tired looking eyes and proceed to get dressed in your house robes. Sitting on the dorm couch with a book of monster lore, searching for the one you encountered.
