He had cried until Tiny gently led him to a room.Laying in his a bed and stayed be his side,holding his hand until he fell asleep.
She wiped his cheek cleaning the dry streaks from his tears,with a sad smile.
Poor Young Master.
For years she had waited with hope the Snapes will return.Imagine the joy she felt when she opened the door to find the Youngest Snape on the other side.A spitting image of his parents.It also brought back sad memories.The day Young Masters mother was murdered and he was taken.
Hadrian moved causing his robe to ride down.To her shook Tiny saw the edges of a bruise.Putting a hand over him letting her magic search for any other injures her heart fell to her stomach as he sensed other painful injures and scars that covered his body.
At this he tensed in his sleep.
She coaxed him to rest on as she began to quietly work and healed his injures.
He tensed expression eased as he felt her magic find it way into his skin.It wasn't threatening,more like letting the sun grace his pale skin on a cool spring day.
Tiny scorned herself,Tiny wasn't strong enough to protect Young Master once,the smiling image of Master James holding baby Hadrian flashed in her mind,Tiny won't fail you again.
Tiny finished and left her Young Masters room to sleep in peace.
******{<.>}******
When Hadrian woke woke from his dreamless sleep he was confused of his surroundings.
The memories of finding his childhood home and a house elf named Tiny flashed in his mind.
He removed the silk black sheets that covered his body.To his surprise,sitting on the edge of the bed,the bruises and cuts that tattered his body didn't twist of burn.He moved his arm around his back trying the feel the hardened scabs that were there,only to find nothing.
Hadrian blinked in the darkened room,Tiny healed me,He smiled sadly at himself.
He stood the floor boards creaking under his feet.A glimmer of glass caught his eyes and with a wave of his hand, the lamp came to life lighting the room.What he saw was like someone had stabbed a dagger right through his chest.A picture of his Father and Mother as they held the one year old Hadrian.
His father,Severus Snape,wore his signature black robes as they bellowed in the wind.He ebraced his wife and son,his lip perked into a small smile.Looking at the pair with such love and peace.
His Mother,James Snape,wore clothes so care free.Simple sweater and jean as he held the one year-old in his arms.A large smile graced his face,green eyes shinning with joy.Unruly hair that pointed at every direction.He tip-toed to plant a kiss in his father cheek in which he blushed,but returned the loving gesture.
And his younger self,giggled at his parents and held out his arms trying to grabbing his father sleeve.
Hadrian smiled at the picture,his eyes teared up and held the picture to his chest.

Dumbledore smashed the time-glass on the ground.
His eyes flaring with rage,"WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU LOST HIM?!"
Ronald Weasley and Hermione Granger shivered at his fury.Granger felt like she was going to puke at the magic she felt oozing from the Hogwarts Headmaster.The red-head look green from the pure fear he felt as Dumbledore glared down at them.
Weasley swallowed,"W-we went to the L-L-Leaking Cauldron b-but he wasn't there."
"Yes,"Grangers shoulders picked up as if trying to hid her,"the land lord didn't even see him check out of his room."
"No leads at all!?"
"No sir."They both said pale.
He growled at himself as he clutched his fists,"That brat!He dares try to hide from me."
There was a knock on the door startling the pair of unworthy Gryffindors even more.
Dumbledore calmed himself and narrowed his eyes saying in a hiss,"Find him."
They both turned tail and headed for the flow leaving by the time Severus opened the door.
"Severus,"Dumbledores kind grandfather mask in place,"how wonder for you to come.My apologies for calling you at such a late our."
Severus glared at the man at he sneered,"What do you want?"
Dumbledores blood boiled at his attitude wanting nothing more then to kill him where he stood,but he still needed his pawn,"I fear Harry Potter must have been caught by the Dark Lord."
Severus heart filled with worry.His first thought was that Lilys son was in danger,but for some reason that feeling was misplaced in some way he couldn't explain,"What do you want me to do about it?"
"Go do the Dark Lords meeting and see if you find any clues of his whereabouts."
Severus signed exhausted and a bit hungover ,"I'll see what I can find Headmaster,"Turing to head out the door.
"And by the way Severus."
He stopped door mid-open,"What?"
"Did you feel anything last-night?A blast of magic perhaps?"His eyes shinned his with sinister intentions as he stared at his back.
"No,"He lied fluently,"why?"
"Oh,Nothing,"he stoked his beard,"I must be getting to old.I'm starting to imagine things."
For a second Severus thought he heard something in grandfather voice.He mentally shook his head of such thought and walked out the door,closing it behind him.
Dumbledore kept him kind smile in place until Severus was out the door.He smile dropped into a sneered as he glared at where the Potions Professor stood.
He must be lying.Even though I've taken his memories I was unsuccessful in severing the bond between his son,only weaken it.And now that the boy has gain nearly all his power,the bond strengthened.
He slammed his fist on his desk,"Blast it all!!!The boy must know now!!!My plans are ruined,"He smirked,"no matter with eyes watching him in Hogwarts left and right he won't have any way of ruining more of then.Especially when I have his father wrapped around my finger.He won't dare go against me."
A black owl came flying through the window and out after be delivered the letter.The red wax stamp with the familiar Ministry of Magic symbol on it.
Opening the letter it read,
Dear Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore,
Due to the last years incident with you ad it students,we apologize.It was not our intention to have Dolores Umbridge to harm your student in such a way.But due to a vote between our court it was voted that Dolores Umbridge is to return to Hogwarts.He hope you understand.
Sincerely,Ministry of Magic Court
Dumbledore's eyes sparked with dark intentions and he smirked evilly,"I can use this,"He burned the letter to ash,"this game is starting to become even more fun."
