Summary: A story about Harry being taken by someone or some group. The story must include Severus using the line from the movie, Taken. The quote is as follows:

"I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want. If you are looking for ransom, I can tell you I don't have money. But what I do have are a very particular set of skills; skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you let my (insert Harry's name or Snape's relation to him here) go now, that'll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don't, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will kill you."

You can use as little or as much of the quote as you want as long as the last line must be used.
