His Half-Blood Princess {Severus Snape}

A Vampire & A Werewolf

>THIRD PERSON<

Severus was leaning towards Scarlet once more, but just before what could happen next -

"SEVERU-Rrrrrrr... oh." Professor Felixa's voice trailed off, as she burst through the door herself. 

"Um...  Oh, er, yeah, okay. I-I just need to-" she said sheepishly, as the man held out his hand for her to stop. "It's alright, Flora, what is it?" he asked, rather... kindly. "Oh, no! You were just about to, y'know...."

"Flora."

The professor smiled in an embarrassed way, then gestured outside, for them both to talk.

The next day, was the trip to New York City itself. Scarlet and Severus' trunks were already packed, and ready as ever.

"Ready for your honeymoon- I mean mission?" Xander asked, earning him the usual swat in the arm. "THIS. ISN'T. A. HONEYMOON. XANDER!!!" whisper-shouted Scarlet. 

"Time to go!" Severus shouted from the other room below. Later, Severus and Scarlet stood  in front of the fire place, and McGonagall with Felixa were both there, standing while Felixa held the pot of floo powder. "Miss Carter, are you sure you want to do this?"

"If it's the only way to keep everyone safe... Then, yes."

McGonagall looked at Severus with a you're-in-charge-now face, as Felixa moved the pot nearer towards Scarlet. "Oh, also, we talked to the Ministry the other day. They have granted you permission to  do magic outside of Hogwarts till you get back." Felixa added quickly. "Alright....

"MAGICAL CONGRESS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, NEW YORK CITY!"

Scarlet vanished, and Felixa leaned towards McGonagall to whisper something. "Who knew the address was so long."

Followed by Severus, Scarlet coughed once while she removed the powder still caught upon her robes. "Woah..." she said in awe, as she turned around, looking at every inch. She was in literal New York herself... "We need to move." Severus told her, grabbing her by the hand, leading her through the crowd with ease. Scarlet didn't even bother almost bumping into wizards & witches. She was feeling as though she was in a book she would read.  He pulled her into a corner, and made her look at him in the eye. "I need you to change into your Animagus."

"What? Why?! We're in public!"

"Um... Yes. About that..."

Severus handed her a roll of newspaper, and her jaw dropped as her complete name was written as the headline.

SCARLET CARTER: GOOD, BAD, OR GRAY?

By: Rita Skeeter

"That woman!" hissed Scarlet. She grabbed her wand, pointed it at the paper, and whispered: "Incendio!" It burned itself, leaving a pile of ashes. "And since you're famous -" 

 "Wait, a moment! Wouldn't a wolf seem suspicious?" asked Scarlet confusingly. "Well, that's why I brought this." And the thing may be the reason why she muttered: "Good. Merlin...

"REALLY, SEVERUS. A LEASH?!"
