Forgotten Heroes by secretlovechild
02/20/2005He stared at the tombstone. It blended in amongst all the others; there was nothing special about it. Nothing to set it apart as the tombstone of the Boy Who Lived, who wasn’t so much alive anymore as he was dead and buried. First of the End Of World oneshots.

The Black Rose by Elizabeth Bathory
01/06/2003This is an alternative look at the future from my fic - A Broken Bridge Between Two Houses. This is my interpretation of what the future could be if Domenica had chosen Snape rather than Remus.
"RUN, DRACO!" And that’s what he did. Suddenly it mattered so little, whether he was being "treated like a child". He followed Snape’s blunt commands without the slightest flicker of resentment. Suddenly he would’ve given anything to see his pestering mother, to feel her arms close around him in one of her oppressive hugs. The flight, from Draco's view.
The Quiet Things That No One Ever Knows by Riay_Night
09/14/2009This story chronicles the events leading up to Snape becoming a full-fledged Death Eater, beginning with the end of his friendship with Lily Evans in his fifth year. It will be installed in four parts, maybe five if I get over-ambitious. I used to write HP fanfiction weekly, but I haven't written in years, so reviews and the lot are very very appreciated! And yes, the title is taken from a Brand New song. The song lyrics do not play a part in the story, but I thought that the title fit very well--read on to see what I mean!
