Arrival of Snape
Who: Snape and OTA
What: Snape arrives on Mirage
When: Dawn, Day 6
Where: A xeric wildflower-strewn meadow by a duck-pond in the hills near the Dude Ranch
Rating: PG, I expect
Status: Complete

Severus Snape dragged his feet one after the other up the cold stone staircase. This was the part he dreaded: facing the Dark Lord again, enduring his questions, resisting his legilimency without appearing to resist, slathering him with ridiculous praise. If it were only the latter, it would be merely distasteful, but He Who Shall Not Be Named was not the chief dark wizard in Britain for nothing. Snape was powerful, and an extraordinarily-talented occlumens, but pitting his power against that of Lord Voldemort was always a trying challenge.

As the black-robed wizard reached the penultimate step, however, he felt the most unusual tug on his foot. Looking down to see what was affecting him, he saw not stone but yellow summer-dry grass such as one was not likely to find in the vicinity of the Dark Lord's abode. Looking up again, firm plain beneath his sole, Snape was surprised to find that he no longer stood on an enclosed staircase, but now stood under a broad and rapidly-lightening sky. Near him he saw ducks floating on a pond, but in all other directions he saw nothing but rolling hills covered in grass and wildflowers of various hues. The purple florescences appeared to be echinacea for the most part. Was he in some unsettled corner of the American prairie?

As he gazed about him, blinking in the bright sun to which he was in no way accustomed, he espied in the furthest distance what appeared to be a collection of buildings. Well, perhaps he could find answers there to the mystery of his sudden abduction. Since he wouldn't be able to Apparate there until he had a detailed idea of its layout, he began walking in its direction. It was going to take a while to get there, and the Dark Lord would not be pleased by his unexpected and extended absence, but Snape saw no other choice.

Edward raised an eyebrow at his answer.Magic!He knew the man had smelled slightly off!Wizards always did for one reason or another. "Your a wizard?thats just..thats great"He held himself in check, it wasnt like vampires, or any supernatural thing, saw many wizards pass through their lands, and he didnt want the man to think he was giddy over something so small.

He turned,grinning as the main building came into view, and though he was sure the man couldnt see the blinking key, edward could.He led them inside and quickly opened the blinking box, removing the key and handing it the dark haired wizard "I think its your"He said with a frown.

Snape was slightly offput by Edward's enthusiasm concerning his wizardly nature. He had not believed muggles to be so enamoured with magic, not true magic anyway, but it was seeming more and more likely that Cullen was not a muggle at all. Of course, if he wasn't a muggle and he wasn't magicfolk, Snape wasn't sure what he was. He forced a grim smile in response to the other man's comment. He was trying to compliment him, Snape supposed.

"My key, is it? How odd. And this is my room number? It seems I was expected, though not by you, or so you say. Do you know where this room is?"

Snape looked with skepticism and not a little disdain at the mechanical contraption in his hand. It seemed that they were truly in a non-wizarding environment. He wondered if anyone else here could do magic.

"Rooms.Right"He muttered,glancing at the number on the key.

He really didnt have much knowledge about the lay of the land, only having been to his room,the kitchen, and the forest, so far.Thankfully it seemed to dorms werent spread all that far apart.

He quick found the D dorm,and followed behind the black-clothes wizard through the halls,frowning to himself and being lost in thought before he literally bumped into him,and saw the wizard had come to a stop in front his door, a strange expression on his face "Oh!I should warn you though, the rooms change to look however you want em to look"

The long-suffering Potions Master followed the pale boy across the campus of the ranch to the dormitory block, giving his best impression of patience. He itched for this introductory process to be over, so that he could be left alone to adjust to his new situation. Clearly, if the Planet was abducting people, it was not doing so randomly.

Taking the key, he moved ahead, making his own way to the room indicated by number on the device. When he stopped in front of it, he was extremely irritated when the young man collided with him.

"Will you please watch where you are going? What do you mean they change? If they end up the way I like them, why do you consider that worthy of a warning?"

	He merly raised an eyebrow at his tone,half tempted to snap back at the black robed man but didnt.There was no telling what a wizard would do when angry. He shrugged at the man's question "I dunno, Just thought it might be shocking or something" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Snape rolled his eyes. He had had quite enough of this insouciant young man. Shocking or not, he was eager to enter his chamber and escape his companion's presence. It was an extremely surprising thing to be bodily abducted to an alien world. One needed time to adjust on one's own.

"Oh, did you? Well, I'm fairly certain that, no matter how appropriately I decorate my rooms, I shall not be shocked, dismayed, distressed, or in any other way put out by them."

He slid the key into its lock, hearing an audible 'click' as the mechanism opened for him. Putting a hand on the knob, he turned to dismiss the other man.

"Well, Mr Cullen, it appears I must thank you for your assistance today. You found me in the wilderness, brought me to this place, answered my questions, and showed me my rooms. I intend now to take a rest, but perhaps we shall see each other later. Good day to you, sir."

With that he turned the handle of his door and prepared to enter.

Edward was starting to feel slightly awakwrd standing at this wizards side, gazing somewhat dreamlike at the closed door.

So it was sort a relief when the dark clothed wizard,snape edward reminded himself,his name is snape, basically told him to get lost.

"Your welcome..Uh I think"He said with a frown,nodding "If you need anything let me know"he prompted before turning tale and was down the hallway before the mortal could blink, leaving him to his devices.

	Snape closed his eyes and shook his head briefly. Finally! He'd wondered if the boy would ever leave. Well, nothing for it but to see these mysteriously comfortable rooms of his. Pushing open the door, the Potions Master, or was that former Potions Master stepped inside, out of the glare of the sun and out of his first afternoon on Mirage. (Reply to this) (Parent)
