Thank you, the religious aspect of this fiction wasn't planned, I wasn't sure where to go with the plot, and I've always heard write what you know, so that's what I did, as far as Snape being a Catholic.  And for your question when he was helping her through her episode, he wasn't sexually desiring her or wanting a sexual response from her, Snape just wanted to take care of her as, say, Poppy would for a student.

You are most welcome, though I'm not sure if Ron is going to be making many more apperances.  Thank you for your review/rating and comment

Thank you for your review/rating Livvy, I'm glad he didn't kill the woman either, though I might post the original version as an alternate chapter, when I'm more comfortable with its content.  Oh the revenge he has planned for Umbridge will be worth the wait.

Thank you so much for your review/comment. and rating  To answer your question Snape previously murdered a pederast name Chaucer, a little girl named Amelia while on a raid with the D.E.s and others during his time as a death eater, the victim count is 27.  I didn't give dates or a time period as to when the acts occured, only that they had happened. Again, thank you for takeing the time to review.

You are most welcome :)  I sent off chapter 4 to by beta yesterday, so as soon as I get it back and make corrections I'll be posting.

Wow, thank you so much for your kind and generous words, I just finished writing Chapter Four, and sent it off to my beta, so I soon as I get it back I'll be posting.  Again, thank you so much for your review.

Thanks, the poem actually happened by accident, I was stuck as to how to continue the chapter, and stepped away from writing for a bit and was just scribbling down some ideas and that's what popped out, I didn't realize it till I had a friend read through it that it fit Snape/Hermione's situtation perfectly.  I'm working on chapter four, hope to have it off to my beta within the next day or so.

Thank you so much, I was worried that people were becoming turned off because of my wiritng style, and the mass confusion of the first few chapters, though I planted clues here and there, as to the overall plot as the story unravled.   Snape isn't evil, just morally ambigious, I'm mapping out/writing chapter four, which will delve into the Fidelitious Fealty curse.  Again, thank you so much for your review/comment.

Thanks so much!!! I'm working on Chapter Four, which will delve more deeply into the Fidelitious Fealty, and Severus' lust for carnage. Again thank you so much, getting such positive reviews make wiritng this so worth while.

Okay let's sum this up, the prologue and chapter one are in the present, with the 'climax' having already taken place, you're getting peeks at the aftermath.  Chapter One Part II, Hermione is having an out of body experience, watching what Severus is doing to her in the present.  The last chapter or so of Chapter One Part II we learn Umbridge caused the damage, and Hermione reenters her body, when she regains consciousness.  Chapter 2 is in the present, Snape is upset when he figures out what Umbridge has done, he gets angry, in the first paragraph stating that he wants to kill her, he gets lost in his memories about his past, and being a killer, and Hermione interupts his thoughts at the end. Chapter Three which is in queue is going to clear up everything.  Thanks so much for the review, it means a lot as this is my first fiction, so I'm really nervous if people will like it.  Thanks so much!!CAS

Ah, that does make more sense, so i was almost there..ish HAHA!Do not worry about the fiction, it is really good and although you may feel a bit :S about the confusion it keeps people coming back to read more! Plus it gets us lazy bones to think abit. ;)Really looking forward to more...I shall let you know if my head is 'there' once I've read it.

Thanks so much, I'm number 13 in queue so I hope to be posted within the next couple of days, Now I just need to get motivated with Chapter 4, work has been really busy so I haven't had much time to just sit down and write.  Well there is always the weekend.  Again, thanks so much for your kind words.

Thank you so much, don't worry the confusion will be cleared up in chapter three. Which I'm in the process of writing.

I know my Snape is dark to put it mildly, I apologize that this last chapter was a bit squicky, I had trouble writing it myself, I promise though Severus does have redeeming qualities.  And as far as where the story is going I would stay tuned to Chapter Three.   Thank you for your review, it makes writing this story all worth while. 

A couple of graphic paragraphs will not turn me away from your story. My curiosity is peaked. I'll continue to read I promise!!!

Yay!! I'm three pages into Chapter three and hope to have it off to my beta by tomorrow.

Yes, Hermione is having an out of body experience, and the she in question is Professor Umbridge.  Thanks, so much for the review.  :)

Sorry, I don't want to give anyone nightmares.  He plans of killing Umbridge, sorry if I didn't make that clear in my wiritng of this chapter,  it will be made clear in chapter three.   Thank you so much for your review.  Now, I'm off to write chapter three.

Thanks so much, Severus is a dark character, but he will have some redeeming qualities.  I promise.

I'm working on chapter three, I had originally ended chapter two differently, but decided to scrap it, and delve more into Serverus' inner workings, and save the original ending of chapter two as the opening on chapter three.  Thanks for your review, and I'm glad you're not confused anymore.

I just got back chapter one, part 2 from my beta, SeverusLovesUs, so I'm going to tweak a few things, and hope to submit the latest chapter by tonight.  As for longer chapters, I'm working on that.  And as for not understanding what the heck is going on, some answers will be revealed in part 2, and some will remain unanswered until chapter 2.  I promise you though, all loose ends will be tied together in a neat bow, by the end of this story.  Thank you for reviewing and for sticking with this story, I hope my style of writing or the way I choose to reveal information, or not, doesn't turn people off or away.   

I'm very flattered by your response this is my first piece of fiction, so I was a little nervous about the reaction it would get.  I just finished part II or Chapter One and sent it off to my wonderful beta SeverusLovesUs.  Some questions will be answered, and others will have to wait until chapter two.  

Well that's good news, I don't want to freak out any of my readers, well I'm off to work on part 2 of chapter one.

I'm sure you're not freaking out most of your readers.  I've written a cruel Snape now and then, but I'm a big honeybun at heart. lol. What matters is that your writing is effective and illicits a response.  It's certainly doing that for me. Sometimes it's fun to get a little spooked.

Well I hope that you don't spook too easily because the next chapter is going to be unsettling to say the least.

Thank you for your review, it's not my intention to creep anyone out, really it's not.  Working on Part II of Chapter One.

Well I'm glad you like the story so far and I'm glad you're sticking with it.

Wow, thank you much for your kind words.  I'm working on Part II of Chapter One which will clarify any confusion and/or questions.  

I hope that means you like my story thus far.  Thanks so much for your review/comment.

Oh yes, shivers are good, at least in that angsty way that means I'm on the edge of my seat waiting to find out what happens next.  Aren't shivers what you were aiming for? *g*

And a bone you shall have, I'm working on Part II of Chapter One which will shed light on our duos current situation.  All answers will be give in due time.  Scout's honor.

I know this may seem a tad confusing, it's my intention, I purposely dropped readers into the middle of a situation where the action/climax has already taken place.  Don't worry all will be explained.
