“Snape was definitely up to something. He was sure of it. But he could not figure out what. The signs were all there, but he had no evidence. He considered speaking to McGonagall about it, but it felt like his first year all over again. He knew that McGonagall trusted Snape, and without proof his suspicions would just be shot down.” A story written after the Final Battle in Harry’s final year at Hogwarts, canon except for Snape surviving (and possibly the Epilogue). Written for Mellow Moon’s Mysterious Potion challenge. Three-shot.

If Snape found him two years later, the summer before he is due to start Hogwarts, what would Harry’s rescue and recovery be like? Would he ever be a normal kid? Warnings: Abusive Dursleys
