[HP]Blue Soul

Charlotte never knew that every minute and every second was torture for her.Ever since she learned about the existence of the Death Eaters from James Potter and the others, she had been a little uneasy.She thought of the words of the two people at the funeral of Mr. and Mrs. Evans, the bridge that was cut off, the office building where the gas exploded, countless innocent lives disappeared; she also thought of Ellen, the crazy Bella and Cosmo, the shining Green Light and his broken hand.

The Death Eaters were so insane, she wasn't sure that Severus, who lived in the ivory tower of the campus, knew about them.When he knows, what choice will he have.She had never been looking forward to summer vacation like this time, she wanted to chat with Severus, wanted to know his decision.

The summer vacation came in Charlotte's anxiety.This time Severus used his newly learned Disapparation to go straight back to Godric's Hollow.But since he came back, he has plunged into the cellar. Charlotte watched him busy around in the cellar, and there was no chance to stop and talk for a while.

Until Lily, who didn't want to be alone at home, also came to Godric's Hollow, Charlotte finally made up her mind that she must stop Severus and have a serious chat with him.

Lily got into Charlotte's bed again that night, and she said, "Charles, are you going to exercise tomorrow morning?"

"No, I have something to do." Charlotte replied.

"Then I'll go alone." Lily pouted, "I'm going to find a fork to play with. I don't know if he's still by the lake."

"You like forks so much?" Charlotte said with a smile.

"He always makes me very happy. When he is by my side, I will temporarily forget my parents who are no longer there, Penny who always fights with me, forget the bad things I encountered in school, and forget a lot. said Lily, looking at the top of the four-poster bed.

"School?" Charlotte's heart skipped a beat, "Does school have a lot of bad things?"

"Well, several classmates had accidents at home." Lily sighed, "A friend who played well with me, her parents passed away, and she didn't come to class for the last few months. There is another senior sister , There was also an accident at home. Hey, there are accidents everywhere, and people are in panic. Everyone in the common room used to be chatting and joking happily, but now it seems to be covered with a cloud of gloom, and they dare not speak loudly."

"Then what will you say?"

"They have all kinds of speculation." Lily covered her head with a quilt, "This is the most uncomfortable part for me. They said that there is an organization called Death Eaters in the magic world, and they did all these things. Someone told Some of my fellow Slytherins were related to Death Eaters, and they suspected Sev. I told myself that Sev was definitely not, but I always had the idea that Sev was always hanging out with the bad guys, and I It's hard to believe that I don't trust Sev enough."

No wonder Lily's attitude towards Severus was a little strange today.

"What if Sev really became a Death Eater?" Lily asked.

"I don't know," murmured Charlotte, "but I'm willing to believe him."

At four o'clock in the morning, Lily had fallen into a deep sleep.Charlotte was still looking at the top of the bed with her eyes open, the sound of Lily's steady breathing was heard in her left ear, and the ticking sound of the alarm clock on the bedside table was heard in her right ear.She didn't feel sleepy at all, but felt extremely excited, and she could clearly feel her heartbeat.

She got up from the bed, helped Lily tuck the quilt, gently opened the door and went out.The corridor was dark, and Charlotte tiptoed down the stairs. There was still a light shining at the round opening of the cellar. "Sif is still making potions?" She walked over.

The cellar was brightly lit, the mist from the potion was lingering everywhere, and the sound of gurgling could be heard endlessly.Severus fell asleep on the table, his eyes were black and black, and he didn't know how long he had been up.

Charlotte stood at the table for a few minutes, looking at the frown that was furrowed even in sleep, and she reached out to smooth it, but just as her hand got closer, Severus moved.Charlotte put down her hands helplessly, and walked lightly back into the living room.

The summer night was also a bit cold, Charlotte put on a coat, pushed the door and came to the porch.Sitting on the swing chair, Charlotte looked up at the dark blue sky in the early morning, which was already slightly white.The moon hangs on the top of the tree and is about to set at any time. A huge morning star is like a lonely eye gazing at everything in the world.

The air was filled with the chill of dawn, Charlotte hugged herself, and Xiaobai, who didn't know when he woke up, swam over and wrapped Charlotte's wrist, the cold scales made Charlotte's skin goosebumps .The sky is getting brighter, and the morning mist is penetrated by the sunlight and disappears between the sky and the earth.

"You woke up so early?" Severus' voice sounded, after undergoing a voice change, his voice was like a deep and beautiful cello, every word seemed to hit Charlotte's heart, making her unable to stop heartbeat.

"You're early, too." Charlotte looked up at Severus.His face was pale, but given a radiance by the morning light, Charlotte could clearly see the down on the side of his face.

"You look like you have something to tell me, since I came back." Severus' upright figure stood like a black pine on the porch, giving Charlotte an invisible sense of oppression.

"Yes, I've been wanting to talk to you, Sev. Can you spare some time for me? You're always busy..." Charlotte stood up, but she still had to tilt her neck to look straight his eyes.

"There's a little left on the order, give me an hour," Severus said.

An hour passed quickly, and Charlotte had helped Lily put the bracelet on and sent her out the door.Without Charlotte to prod her, she whizzed away on her broom.

A few owls came and went, and disappeared into the sky with a large package. Charlotte sat on the sofa and waited for Severus to arrive at last.He sat across from Charlotte, took a sip of the tea that Charlotte had prepared earlier.

"What do you want to tell me?" he asked.

"I learned a piece of news a while ago, which made me restless." Charlotte said, "I need you to help me solve my troubles."

"Say it." Severus put down his glass and sat up straight.

"You know Death Eaters, don't you?"

"……Know."

"Do you know what the Death Eaters are doing?"

"I probably know a little bit. They seem to be preparing to do something. My orders have been increasing recently, like... the signs of war."

"They made a lot of Muggle attacks and killed a lot of people. Lily's parents, and probably Ellen, they all died at the hands of the Death Eaters. I don't know how many more people will die in the future."

"..."

"Are you going to be a Death Eater? Sev, do you agree with their idea of ​​driving Muggle wizards out of the wizarding world?"

"I follow power."

"But that's contradictory, Sev. Lily's and I's parents were Muggles, and when you're after power, you drive us out together. At that time, our positions were on opposite sides."

"..."

"Sev, I never thought of leaving you, I want to be with you forever. But at this time, I and your power are on two different paths. So, can you tell me which way you want to go? road?"

The surprise in Severus' eyes was fleeting. The surprise was no less than Charlotte's confession, but lost to the choice she gave.Power and strength are the goals he pursues. More than once, he fantasizes that he stands on a high mountain and tramples under his feet all those who look down on him, insult him, and ignore him.But he never thought that he and Charlotte would be on opposite sides.

Is power and love really incompatible?

"I won't stop you from studying black magic, but I don't want you to be one of the madmen. I hope you will think about it while you still have a choice."

Is there really a choice?Severus thought uncertainly.

After Charlotte finished speaking, the atmosphere was silent again.She was actually very restless in her heart, because she wasn't sure if Severus would really choose her, and she wasn't sure if she was important enough in Severus' eyes to make him give up his pursuit of power.

But to Severus, Charlotte was undoubtedly important, and part of his pursuit of power was due to Charlotte.He wanted to catch up in Charlotte's footsteps and own his own achievements, so that he could hold her hand as a matter of course.Maybe he hesitated a little at the first moment, but at this moment he was already thinking about his retreat, because he couldn't stand the summit without Charlotte by his side, it must be a desolate place.

"I don't think I can bear to live without you, Charlotte," Severus said softly, "I'll think about it, figure out what to do."

Charlotte's face lit up, and she got a response from Severus.Perhaps the most daring move she'd ever made, she stood up and sat next to Severus, gave him a hug, leaned on his chest, and said, "I'll be waiting for you, forever."

Maybe it's a tacit understanding that you come and go.Charlotte didn't want to leave Severus for a moment, and Severus held Charlotte's hand tightly, forgetting about the potion orders piled up on his desk.They clasped their fingers tightly and cuddled tightly, spending time comfortably and happily.

They didn't let go of their hands until Lily came back at noon.Lily went out happily in the morning, but when she first came back, she had a strange expression on her face, as if she was hiding something in her heart.

Charlotte asked her, and she just shook her head and said nothing.In the afternoon, she even hid in the study, writing her homework.Charlotte didn't bother her, but accompanied Severus in the potion room and continued to make his orders, "What's the matter with Lily? She seems to have something on her mind."

"I don't know, maybe I met something in the forest." Severus replied.

"Could it be the fork?"

"Maybe."

"Okay, I'll talk to her sometime." Charlotte looked at the pile of parchment papers on the table, and she took one to read, on which were written the requirements and deadlines for various potions , palliative, hemostatic... "Then can you tell me that your order really cannot be reduced?"

"Maybe, I'll talk to Lucius about it," Severus said.Now his relationship with Lucius is fairly solid, whether it is about potion orders or his retreat, he needs to talk to Lucius.

"Well, I just want you to relax a little bit. Anyway, the body is the most important thing, isn't it?"

After a while, Severus was at the desk, writing something on the parchment?He was very close to the parchment on the table, and Charlotte was lying on the other side of the table, her chin resting on the table.

She said, "Stay away from the parchment, or you'll be wearing glasses like Potter."

Severus snorted displeased, he didn't want to hear the word Potter at all.However, he still slightly stopped his waist and opened the distance from the parchment.

After a long silence, Charlotte said coyly, "Sev. Now, now we..."

"What's going on with us now?" Severus asked without looking up, writing.

"Are we...are we sure about our relationship?" Charlotte asked anxiously.

Severus' hand stopped, he put the quill aside, looked into Charlotte's eyes, and said sincerely, "Yeah."

Charlotte smirked.She buried her head on the table, kicked her feet, and swayed from side to side excitedly, almost knocking over the ink bottle.Charlotte said in a muffled voice: "Mr. Snape, hello, I am your Miss Smith."

Severus moved the poor inkpot aside and said with a chuckle, "So, dear Miss Smith, can you spare poor Mr. Snape's inkwell?"

"Okay." Charlotte got up, curled her lips and raised her chin, "Miss Smith is merciful, she is going to prepare potion ingredients for her Mr. Snape."

Charlotte bouncing over to the potion shelf, picked up the potion ingredients, and began to process them skillfully.Even though both of them were silent, the beautiful atmosphere was rippling around.

Until the evening, Charlotte, who had already climbed into bed, still couldn't calm down for a long time.Before going to bed, she not only urged Severus to go to bed early, but also kissed his face when he was not prepared, and then left Severus running away quickly like a log.Charlotte rubbed her lips and smiled foolishly.

The moon was getting darker, and Charlotte could see the faint light through the blackout curtains.At this time, there was a knock on the door, and after a while, Lily slipped in and crawled into her bed.

"Emm, Charles, I can't sleep." Lily said.

"You seem to have something on your mind. You have been there since you came back at noon, so can you tell me?" Charlotte was in a good mood and was happy to be a close sister.

"I went to find Fork today. I saw him, but things turned magical."

Lily began to describe what had happened to her that morning.

Lily rode a broom and came to the lake in the jungle just like the Christmas holiday.The surface of the lake is still sparkling in summer, but the surrounding snow has long since disappeared, and a green blanket has been laid instead, which is more beautiful than the winter scenery.

Lily found a big rock by the lake, sat down just enough to cover her head, and helped her block the increasingly intense sunlight.But after sitting for a long time, the fork didn't appear, and the lakeside was empty except for her.

Lily was a little disappointed, she thought she might not have seen her for several months, and Fork had already forgotten her existence.While she was despondently holding a branch and drawing circles on the ground, the voices of two people talking suddenly came from her ears.

Soon she recognized Potter's voice, and since he disappeared for a few days in May, he returned to school a completely different person, no longer fond of wandering in the corridors, and he did not cast spells on people casually curse.What is even more incredible is that he even apologized to a male classmate he had bullied before in the common room.

Although the behavior of the prodigal son turned back made Lily feel less disgusted, but Potter's habit of dangling in front of her still remained the same.So hate is still hate.She didn't want to be discovered by Potter and Black at all, so she hid behind a stone and watched them secretly.Potter and Black were walking by the lake.

"What are you going to do with your father's company?" Blake said.

"I don't have any plans. My dad has already made preparations. The company has been transferred to his old buddy after he passed away. I told them that I want to be Aurora, and they also support me." Porter said .

"I'm sorry, Prongs."

"It's none of your business, Padfoot. You're not like them, you're not a Death Eater. What about you? You've been expelled from your family. What will you do after graduation?"

"Didn't I already move to my uncle's place? I heard from my uncle that there is now an organization called the Order of the Phoenix, which is fighting against the Death Eaters. I think if I have the opportunity after graduation, I can join it."

"Then I want to, and I will definitely take revenge."

"Of course you can do it, Prong. By the way, will Remus and the others come to play? If so, I can stay for a few more days."

"I don't know. I invited Remus and Peter. From Peter's point of view, his parents want him to help at home. As for Remus, you know, he is always afraid to trouble us. Anyway, as long as they come, I will Open the door to welcome."

"Go back and write them another letter. Will you give me a letter of approval? Also, you said you met Evans here?"

"Yes, although she doesn't know who I am?"

"That's also an improvement. I think when she knows who you are, she might not be in such a good mood to play with you. Think about the stupid things you did in school."

"That's true."

……

"How's your magic motorcycle doing?"

The two began to chat about other topics. Lily's knees were knocked against the stone, and she felt uncomfortable. She touched her knees.

"It's perfect. I have already tried riding it, but the endurance is a bit poor. I still need to improve it."

"You can drive over and we can study and study together. We can always do great things together with our brains, otherwise we wouldn't be able to make the Marauder's Map. It's a pity that it was taken away by Filch. I don't know if we can get it back."

"It's probably difficult. I think it's a good thing that the nose is good. Otherwise, how would Filch know the Marauder's Map. Fortunately, it needs a spell to open it. Filch will definitely not be able to discover the mystery. Let's not mention this disappointing thing." Well, how about we race?"

"Then you must be inferior to me, I'm a prong."

"Then let's compete."

Then the two of them turned into a deer and a big black dog under Lily's surprised eyes.They quickly skipped over the grass and ran towards the forest, but Lily sat down behind the stone in disbelief. She never thought that the fork that accompanied her and brought her happiness turned out to be the annoying James Potter.

"So I just sat by the lake for a while," Lily said, "I can't believe it, really."

After listening to Lily's story, Charlotte sighed. She didn't expect Lily and James Potter to have such an encounter. No wonder she thought the stag was so human, but she didn't expect it to be James Potter.They learned Animagus.

"Then what are you worrying about?" Charlotte asked.

"I am worried about how to treat him. I regard the fork as my friend. After the death of my parents, I have been sad for a long time, but the company of the fork helped me out of the shadows. However, James Potter is the same as James Potter in my heart. Arrogant, what he did before disgusts me, although he has changed a lot in the past month." Lily said in a muffled voice.

"Then you still hate him?"

"I want to say it's annoying," Lily said, "but my heart tells me that's not the case. He's changed from before, he's become more responsible, he's willing to apologize to the people he bullied, and he doesn't That makes me hate it. Besides, he amuses me when he turns into a deer. That way, I can't hate him even more."

"He still apologized? Did he apologize to Sif?"

"No, they still pinch each other when they meet, but now they don't fight anymore, they just talk about it."

"Okay." Charlotte didn't expect James Potter to apologize to Severus, "Since you already have the answer in your heart, why bother, it's enough to follow your heart."

"Is that so? Charles, is this a betrayal of us? We used to regard him as a deadly enemy."

"I once read a sentence in a book in Huaguo, put down the butcher knife and become a Buddha immediately, which means that the evil person realizes the wrong thing he has done and is determined to change it, then he can still become a good person very quickly. You are the same Thought, didn't you?"

Charlotte has long discovered Lily's character, which is a character that most people have never had or even understood. She knows how to forgive, is kind and beautiful.
