Severus had been looking forward to this all summer. It wasn’t usual when a student much preferred school over going home – but his father was a terror. He had taken a little bit of money that he was sure wouldn’t be noticed and planned to spend the last couple of days before school at the Leaky Cauldron. Because of the underage magic rule, he hadn’t been able to cover up some of the injuries he had sustained this summer very well. So, he found himself a quiet corner, near Knockturn Alley, and began to use the healing spells – unlike at home where his mother never used magic, and therefore if he used magic, he’d be quickly discovered by the ministry, at Diagon Alley they were able to mask their magic with all the others around.
He slowly removed a scarf which hid a few bruises which he quickly used a healing spell on. He hated this. He hated his father. His mother was weak – but he loved her. She actually cared about him, even if she was weak. He had sworn when he went to Hogwarts he would get enough power to protect her from his father. Rolling up his sleeves he started working on a nasty fracture on one of his fingers and several bruises along his arm.
He had to learn healing magic pretty quick, or else people would start noticing – his father tended to avoid leaving marks where it was visible, but sometimes his father would get drunk, and therefore lose any sort of control over himself. Severus cursed under his breath, feeling the relief from his magic. Now done, he leaned against the corner, and slid down with a sigh. He couldn’t wait until he graduated. He could show that man how weak he really was. He would be strong. He would change this world for the better at the Dark Lord’s side.

Echo had been enjoying herself during her summer break, but it was also getting to be a bit dull, and her mother was getting annoying. She was a little saddened to be going back to school, but she was also a little excited as well. A couple of days before school started, she and Micheal had plans to go to Diagon Alley and go shopping for school supplies, but right when she was getting ready to leave to go meet him, his family owl arrived with a note that informed her that he was sick and probably contagious. She went to his house, knocked and his door, and offered to his mother to do his school shopping for him. She gladly gave her his school list, which was mostly the same as hers.
After she had been shopping for a while, she had one of the large bags slung over her shoulder’s filled up, but she was not done yet. She hobbled along, to the next store, when she noticed a group of shady people coming up from Knockturn Alley. One of them reached for her, and she tried to get away, but she wasn’t fast enough and was shoved. She tumbled over to the ground and heard their mocking laughter. She looked toward them and swung her crutch at them, but she couldn’t reach it far enough, so it only resulted in them laughing harder. She used her arms to slowly pull herself in into a sitting position, while looking away from them and began checking to see if anything had fallen out of her bag, knowing that it would be too late once she went through the trouble of getting back on her feet.

And the day was just getting a little bit better too… Severus had noticed when a few people had gone for a girl and caused her to fall down. He recognized her a bit – she was from Hogwarts too – A Gryffindor if he recalled correctly. However, Severus, while he was a bitter young man, was not one to stand by and let bullying take place – he had been on the receiving end far too much and even if she was one of the lions, he pulled out his wand, rolling his eyes as he flicked it. The three people who had been laughing at her suddenly began to sprout boils on their faces. They screamed and began to run off.
Severus rolled his eyes, walking up to where the girl sat. Echo. That was her name. He remembered her sorting – he had always kept track of everyone as best as he could so he could know who he was dealing with – especially when it came to Gryffindors and needing to know how to insult them enough to get back at them for picking on him. It was a fairly unique name too. However, she was a year younger than him and so they hadn't really run into each other very often – he wouldn't be surprised if she knew his name, but at the same time he wouldn't be surprised if she had no idea who he was – it was an odd duality.
He kneeled next to her picking up one of the books that had fallen a bit farther away and handed it to her. "You should be more careful. Knockturn Alley is a dangerous place. Even walking near it can be deadly." His voice was low, but he soon offered her a hand to help her to her feet.

She smiled, when they screamed and ran off, and then looked behind her to see who had done it. She recognized him as a Hogwarts student, who was at least a year older then she was, and she was pretty sure was a Slytherin. She smiled at him. “Thank you,” she told him, taking the book and putting it in her bag. She checked to make sure there was nothing else that had fallen out. Echo had used magic to ward off bullies before, although never when she was the victim. She could stand up for other people better then she could herself. She had, numerous time’s, diverted a bullies attention from someone else to her, and then just put up with it until they got tired. She pulled both of her legs up, so that both of her feet were on the ground, so she could use however much strength she could get out of them to pull herself up. “Yeah, I probably should,” she replied, to his warning, thinking about how she had to be careful about a lot of things, and how sick she got of being careful. She picked up both of her crutches, held them up, next to each other, and set the ends up the ground. She held one arm on them, took the boys hand with the other, and slowly pulled herself up. Once up, she leaned a little to the side, on her crutches, and let go of the boy’s hand. She quickly grabbed the outer crutch and got it to her other side to support herself fully. She was even more surprised by the fact that he had stuck around to help her up, then the fact that he had scared the tormenter s off in the first place. She smiled at him again. “Thanks again.”Severus T. Snape

His eyes glanced to her crutches and then up to her eyes. Hm. Well, it wasn't any of his business, but when did he care about something that wasn't his business? He might be a crotchety young man, but he was also nosey. He liked to know things, especially those things that could help him out in the future. And so, with that in mind, Severus looked at the girl for a moment before he blurted out his question.
"Why are you using those? Don't you have magic?" It was a bit disconcerting to him to see a witch struggling like that. They had magic! They could do anything right? So why were there still people struggling like they were some sort of muggle? It made him angry. They were supposed to be more powerful! Why was this girl, even if she was a lion or a muggle born (he didn't know if she was or not, but even if she was, she was magical still or she wouldn't be going to Hogwarts)!

Echo tried Echo got nervous when saw where his eyes went. She tried to hide her annoyance at the ablest comment, but she did not do a very good job of that. “Um… yes,” she told him. “I have magic, but that can’t fix everything.” It certainly could not cure her condition, which she was not sure she would even want to be cured of if given the option. Multiple people in her life had tried to come up with ways to use magic for her to get around more easily, including herself, but nobody could ever come up with anything, except for the broomstick. She wished she could just ride her broomstick everywhere, but she knew that that would never work for various reasons. She did not think she really needed an easier way to get around, anyway. She had used her crutches her whole life and they worked fine. She did not really know any other way. It had often bothered her that other people were able to get around more easily than her, but that did not change the fact that she had accepted it, and tried not to let that get her down. Severus T.

She has magic. But she doesn't use it to fix her problem. Was there just no one who was willing to try to come up with something? There had to be something that would make it easier. He just couldn't imagine living a life like that – they were wizards – they were all powerful. They could solve all the problems they had if they were just willing to sell their soul in exchange for happiness. His soul didn't really matter anyways. Who cared if he sold it as long as the people who mattered were happy? Like his mom. Or Lucius. Those were about the only two people he cared for really.
"What's wrong with you? I mean, if I know what's wrong with you, I can fix it. No one would want a doll that's broken or anything – Not that you're a doll or a toy, but still," He shrugged. Sorry, he was a rude person in general. He means well though… "I can come up with a way that'll make it easier. No need in wasting energy struggling when you can use that effort for something more important. 'Specially since after you graduate, given you're a lion, the Death Eaters likely will start hunting you down. And like that? You'll be dead real fast."

She listened to him, and she knew that he was trying to be nice, but she was still offended. “Don’t bother trying,” she told him. “ My family and I have tried, and we cannot come up with anything, but it does not really matter because I am perfectly happy the way I am. I have Spina Bifida, but that does not make me broken. I may need to use more energy than some people to get around and to do certain things, but that is important, and not a waste when I do get around and get things done.”Some worry entered he voice when she spoke her next sentence. " If I’m in any real danger I can use my wand, which I always have with me, or if I have my broomstick then I can fly away.” She was more likely to get hurt or killed, when in real danger, then some other people, and this was something that really bothered her. She was not going to admit this to him, however, as she had only had admitted this to a few people. Still, she often did things despite being afraid. She knew that she could not let fear stand in her way, or she would not accomplish much of anything. Severus T. Snape

He narrowed his eyes. There was definitely something wrong here. He wouldn't apologize for being an insensitive jerk, but boy, he had a superior complex. Wizards were better and therefore could do anything. If she was choosing to be like this… that was dumb. If she was like this because it couldn't… be fixed, then he was going to make it so that it can be fixed. He wouldn't let powerful magical people suffer as if they were a muggle.
"I'll figure it out then. It wouldn’t do anyone any good to be brought down by you." Boy, seriously. Stop being ableist. Seriously. It wasn't going to end well if you continued like this. The writer apologizes, and this does not represent their views. "I mean, you did really well defending yourself from those guys." He points in the general direction of the people who ran off. "What if you don't have a broom or your wand? Then you're screwed."

She glared at him. “Thank you for helping me. I appreciate it, but as annoying as they were I did not consider myself in any real danger. If I had, I could have defended myself very well.” Echo would defend someone else against people who were just annoying when somebody else was a victim. When it was just her, however, she usually just put up with it, because she did not want to hurt anyone unless she had to. She knew that this made it more likely for them to do it to her again, but she did not mind people picking on her as much as she minded people picking on other people. “I can’t bring my broom with me everywhere, but I never go anywhere without my wand. If someone manages to disarm me, I may be vulnerable until I can get it back, but everyone is in that situation.” The fact that it may take her longer to go and get her wand did not change that.

She was glaring him. She had the gall to glare at him, her savior. Well fine, he didn't need to come over and help her out anyways. After all he did for her (basically just curse a few guys who was annoying, so really not that much, but Severus wasn't thinking in those terms), this is the treatment he got? Even after offering to help her with her medical issue. Him, who had so many better things to do than to help some lion cub actually walk instead of getting eaten even by her own pack of animals.
"Sure, fine, whatever. Stay like this for all I care. I was just offering to help, but since you've been so rude, I won't even give it another thought," He rolled his eyes, because boy he was a terrible teenager, right in that same area where a lot of people ended up being very pissy, "Everyone might be in that situation, but I'm pretty sure I'd fair much better than you would."
He looked down at her, and turned his nose up at her, as if disgusted. Good, the other Slytherins would like that. Sure, he did think himself superior to her at this point because he was a terrible person when it came to things like this, but he also didn't really think just not caring was the right course – helping those who had the capacity to be helped was a good part of it. "At least I can walk. I can depend on not having a wand. I can run away if I'm disarmed and don't have a broom. You'd be dead really fast. Especially if you wander any closer to Knockturn Alley, you were barely near here and you were already attacked, even if it wasn't serious."
Along his arm, there were still a few bruises he hadn't yet gotten to, which looked like fingerprints on his forearm, sleeve having been rolled up so he could work on healing them up.

She was sure that he was the one being rude, although she probably was but not as much as he was, and she had tried to be nice about it, and would still be if he hadn’t kept on at it. She did not even bother explaining this to him, because she was sure that he would not listen anyway. She knew that some people just believed whatever they wanted, no matter what, and it was no use trying to change their opinion. His next comment was even worse, although it did have some truth to it, so she decided to at least try, even if he probably would not listen. “The only way for anyone to make sure they don’t die is to never go anywhere, and hardly do anything. I would much rather take my chances.” Years ago, she had had some desire to have more mobility. Eventually, she had come to realize that she liked herself the way that she currently was, and that this was part of her culture, and she was perfectly happy with that. Did she have a slight increase of danger, maybe, but she would just live with that. She was just starting to turn around, to leave, when she noticed something strange on the boys forearm. She paused. She briefly stared at it, and then turned her gaze away, cursing herself and wondering how she could do that when she hated being stared at. “Are you okay?” she asked, in a concerned and no longer angry tone.

Boy, she was talking to him like he was an idiot. He knew that. It was common sense – if you don't go out you don't get harmed and sometimes getting harmed is worth the risk. However, he liked to up his chances as much as he possibly could. If he was her, he'd work on curing himself before going out – because the chance of death was so much higher for someone like her. Especially since people noticed people like her a lot more, and therefore saw those types as easy targets. Maybe if it weren't so obvious, it wouldn't be as bad.
It was like… how he didn't talk bac to his father. He bet she would talk back to his father despite the punishments for it. He was working on a solution to get out of there and then he could fight back. It was fighting a losing battle. It was annoying that she thought she was better than him because of that. Her arrogant attitude was so Gryffindor of her. As soon as he graduated from Hogwarts, and could do it, he was going to murder that bastard – the consequences were getting expelled or arrested, but he'd be a Death Eater and therefore allowed to do it. However, then he could be finally free of that bastard.
However, soon she noticed the bruises he hadn't gotten to yet – as he swooped in to help her before he got to them. His face paled (if that was even possible as he almost looked like a vampire). Any color he had, vanished. When he spoke, it came out in a stammer, as if scared. "A-Ah yes, of course I'm fine. I just grab myself when I sleep sometimes like – uh… this?" He grabs his arm in the most awkward way to line his fingers up with the bruises, but it was still obvious his fingers were way to thin to have made those bruises. @neigh

He did not argue with her explanation or respond to it at all. She hoped that this meant that he understood, but she suspected that it probably just meant that he was just done arguing about it. Either way was okay with her, really. She knew that there was sometimes no use in changing other people’s opinions, even if they were insulting. As annoying as he was, Echo had been worried, when she saw his bruises. She had hoped that they would turn out to be a product of an accident or something, but then he gave her an explanation that did not really make any sense. She now feared that he was trying to hide something or protect someone. She wondered if maybe this was none of her business, and she should not be meddling, but it occurred to her that he had meddled in her life already. This made it seem okay to her. “I-I don’t believe you,” she told him. Her annoyance with him was all gone, and she was just concerned now. If he was in trouble, she doubted that he would let her help him anymore then she would let him help him, but that was not going to stop her from trying. She hoped that he was in the same boat as her, and didn’t actually need help, but that seemed unlikely. Severus T. Snape

He pursed his lips, quickly casting the healing spell on his arm making the bruises quickly disappear from his arm. It honestly took a few moments, turning yellow before disappearing. It was a spell he'd come up to help with this situation at the beginning of the year every year. It was something he'd come up with recently, and so it wasn't like he could use it too much.
"It doesn't matter if you believe me or not. Not like you can change anything. You won't even try to change things for yourself. You just accept it." He looked away and quickly pulled down his sleeve.
