Severus Snape is confronted my Minerva McGonagall in the Great Hall. Severus must decide whether to fight or flee. A decision is made that sets a greater plan into action. 2 Part only story. Snape hurt/comfort, angst. Set in DH Part 2, this is a rewrite of this great scene to cater to some different themes. No slash, whump/angst only.

"His dark eyes gazed up at the night sky, he thought he could see the fluttering wings of The Crow above him. But that was odd… He could really use Albus's help right now, couldn't he?" Albus Dumbeldore had bonded a Crow to a young Severus Snape a long time ago as a safety measure for the spy. A dying Snape wishes the Crow would fetch his dear friend. Tags inside.
