Chapter 17 - home with my real dad

Jade pov.
I wake up the next morning. Feeling the reasons of my life all a mystery. The room vaguely familiar but otherwise foreign. I'm in my fathers house, in my room. I look around. The walls darkened by the lack of light, but everything otherwise the same as yesterday. I slowly get out of bed and walk downstairs into the living room. I see my father reading the paper. "Hey Dad" I smile broadly until I see Bellatrix standing there with Narcissa. "Uh, I'll go back upstairs" I blurt out and start to walk away. I feel a cold hand grasp my bare arm. "You never said you had a daughter Severus. Why are you keeping her a secret?" Coos Bellatrix in her irritating cruel voice. "Because she isn't really my daughter!" Snaps dad. I turn and look at him, tears welling in my eyes. "What?" I ask feeling my heart shatter. He looks sympathetically at me. "She isn't my daughter. I'm just her guardian" says dad... I mean Snape. I wrench free of Bellatrix's hold running to my so called room and slamming the door. Pretending to cry. It turns to laughter and I flop on my bed. The plan so worked.

Flashback...
Just before I went to bed dad called me back. "Jade. Tomorrow I have Intel that Bellatrix and Narcissa are coming over. You're going to walk down stairs while they're here and say hey dad. I'm going to tell them you're not my daughter. When you actually are. It's just to protect you, so I need you to pretend to be really hurt by it. Can you do that for me?" Dad says. "Yeah" I answer nodding my head, not questioning him. I hug my dad and he kisses my head. I go to bed. Curling up under my covers.

End of Flashback...

I laugh some more as a smile forms on my face. I hear a knock at the door of my room about an hour later. I pretend to sniffle. "Who is it?" I call sadly. "It's Dad, can I come in?" Dad calls. "Yeah" I call back. He opens the door and closes it behind him. "Well done, it worked very well. They should leave you alone. Now I will induct you in the order and you will go double agent won't you?" Says dad. I nod my head. "I'm not serving him, he's a monster" I state confidently. Dad nods. "Get dressed I'm taking you to the muggle world for icecream" dad says and leaves me to change. I do as told and dress in some clean black jeans and a white tank top. I put on my black leather jacket. I. Put on some black socks and my black vans. If you're wondering why I'm wearing so much black, well it's because it is a colour my father wears most of the time and I have a lot of black clothing, not everything I own is bright and colourful, but since I'm now supposedly a death eater and they wear black more than anything I better get into the roll of it. I walk down stairs after brushing my hair and teeth, then grabbing my black leather purse and looping the strap over my shoulder. The gold chain reflecting the light as I walk to the entry hall. I find my Father standing there I his black robes waiting for me. He holds his hand out for me and I take it. The feeling of being pulled through a straw and forced back out erupts. I feel like I'm gonna hurl, but I swallow it down. I sway back and forth then open my eyes and see us in an alley way on a muggle street. I look up at my Dad. He smiles down at me. "Dad, I thought we would be going somewhere else for icecream, I mean there is nothing wrong with muggles in my mind, but... Won't they throne your strange with what your wearing?" I ask dad not meaning to come across offensive if I did. "If they do that is their choice Princess. I don't care what muggles think of me" my father explains, and takes my hand, leading me out into the busy streets of London. The muggles we walk past give my father and I obscure looks, like we're not normal. And they're right, were special people who have magic. We're witches and wizards. Hence why I go to Hogwarts. We get to the ice cream shop and we walk inside. Dad and I go to the counter and I scan the flavours. Two jump out at me. Chocolate and mint choc chip. Dad asks what I would like and I tell him, "can I please have a scoop of Chocolate and mint choc chip" I ask him politely. Dad nods and the lady starts mine. Dad looks at the flavours now too. I see his eyes light up when he spots the boysenberry swirl. Once the kind lady hands me my ice cream dad asks for his.
After we finish our ice cream dad takes me to the order of the Phoenix head quarters. Once inside I enter a large room. I notice Mrs Weasley. She nods at me. "Lovely to see you again Tara" she smiles. I look at dad quizzically. Then it clicks. He put the appearance spell back on. "Now we are having a meeting in here. You look hungry but dinner will have to wait. Please go upstairs and wait with the others dear" she continues. "Molly. She is my daughter and I want her inducted into the order right now. She has been taken into his ranks. Though I do not understand why" dad tells Mrs Weasley. "What a load of Rubbish Severus. Tara is Hermione's twin sister and she is not one if his followers" Molly argues. "Upstairs dear" she tells me. "Molly she isn't your daughter" Remus pipes up. "She's as good as, now upstairs dear" she says then tells me. "Dad take off the appearance spell please" I beg. He sighs but does so. "My name is Jade Lilly Snape. And I am in you know who's follower group, but against my own will" I state honestly but boldly. Mrs Weasley shrinks back in shock. "I want Jade inducted into the order now. It is because of me that my daughter is in this position" my father lies smoothly, not telling them that it's actually because of Draco. My dad and Mrs Weasley start arguing and Remus takes me to his side of the table. I sit between him and Tonks. I feel the radiation of Tonks's aura and it's somewhat calming. I sit a little closer to her and she smiles warmly at me. Then as my father and Mrs Weasley start shouting that Remus takes me out of the room. "Head upstairs. Keep your left sleeve down. Let them cool off. I wish Sirius could have told you this but he is also your Godfather. Your mother made him your godfather before she died" Remus says to me as he pulls me into his embrace. He lets me go and I walk up the stairs passing a house elf muttering to himself. He spots me. "Another filthy Mudblood" it scowls. I glare darkly at him. I pick him up by his clothing and hold him firmly against a wall. "I am no Mudblood. I am related to the blacks through Sirius and possibly in the future by the Malfoys. So I suggest you show respect" I growl to him. "Kreacher is impressed with you're strength and willingness to show dominance. Kreacher will obey you" he says in his scowling voice. "My name is Jade" I tell him firmly dropping him on the ground. "Kreacher is very sorry, Master Jade" he says. "Don't let it happen again. If I find you muttering things about Hermione. Ron, Fred, George, Harry or anyone else here. There will be consequences. Is that understood" I tell him darkly. Kreacher nods and goes back to work. I walk past him and hear voices I slowly open the door and Hermione throws herself at me, hugging me tightly. "I've been so worried. Is everything alright?" She asks while still hugging me. "I've been missing you and I'm fine" I tell her. She releases me then I get a hug from ron and finally from Harry. "Harry, don't get mad. I only just found out, but Sirius is also my Godfather too. My mother made him my Godfather before she died. I guess they must have been friends" I tell Harry leaning against a wall. "Why would that anger me?" He asks. I shrug. "I don't know Harry, I just didn't want you to get mad" I tell him honesty. They all sit down and tell me everything that's happened so far. How Harry is going up for trial thanks to a dementor attack. And how Hermione has been here practically since I left. "Does this mean we're staying here for Christmas?" I ask her. She nods her head. "What about Mum and Dad?" I ask. "They said we should be with our friends because it might be safer for them and for us" Hermione says her shoulders sagging. "Oh" I sigh. Fred and George apparate in. "Hey Jade. Don't worry, we know. Ron told us" says Fred. I glare at Ron, but can I blame him? I mean his brothers are my friends too. I sigh. "Hi" I grumble. "What's up? You sound upset" asks Fred. I sigh. "Just afraid that's all" I tell them. "Why a re you afraid? No one here is going to hurt you" says George. "Because of stuff that happened in the last few days, that I'm not proud of" I say, leaving them guessing. "What did you do? Shag someone?" Asks Fred with a snort of laughter. "No Fred. I didn't. This is worse and I can't tell you because if I do, you're all marked for death" I tell them. "Oh" I hear the two brothers sigh out. "It's okay. Whatever it is, I'm sure you can overcome it" comforts Hermione as she hugs me. "I hope you're right Sis. I hope you're right" I murmur as I return her embrace. "Jade. It's time for us to go" I hear dad yell. I sigh and say my goodbyes to my friends. Hermione I hug last, she is actually the most like family to me. "I'll see you soon" I tell her. She nods and then I pick up my bag again, not even realising I took it off. I walk down stairs with a wave goodbye and then I meet my father at the bottom of the stairs. He takes my hand and we apparate out and back home.

Once in the dark Snape manor. Dad turns me to look at him. "I have to go back to the order. But you have to stay here. It's for your safety, to protect you from him and his followers and your friends. Also to protect you from yourself. If you're hungry have the house elves make you something and if anyone knocks on the door, use the peep hole first to see who it is. If it's one of his followers, answer and if they ask where I am. Tell them I said I was going out to run a few errands that I wouldn't tell you about" dad explains. I nod my head. I hug him and then he kisses my head and apparates out and back to the headquarters. I lock the door and head up to my room.

Here you go. This is different from the original end of this chapter, but I couldn't remember how I originally wrote it. So this is the best I can do.

Love you all. Sorry for any mistakes.

Yours truly, Moréfindiel1158
