Harry Potter: Sectumsempra Chapter 19 | Seven Years of Chaos Book 2

Send a text

Harry approaches Snape with an offer that sounds almost harmless: help with a “project” in exchange for something strange. What he hands over is anything but harmless. A diary that answers back, signed with a name that should be impossible, and a trail that points straight into the darkest parts of Hogwarts’ history. Snape realizes, in one sickening heartbeat, that this is not a student prank. It’s a weapon.

Then the outside world strikes.

Before Snape can even process the danger in Harry’s hands, the Daily Prophet leaks tomorrow’s headline today: Harry Potter is officially his ward. The guardianship is done. Public. Permanent. And it blows apart the future Dumbledore expected to control.

Dumbledore demands Snape give Harry up, dressed in soft words and “for the greater good.” Snape refuses, flatly and finally. If Hogwarts won’t have him, he’ll take Harry and leave. If the Light wants a pawn, it can find another one.

By the end of the chapter, Snape isn’t just protecting Harry from monsters in corridors. He’s protecting him from the adults who keep trying to turn his life into a strategy board.
