"You should tell me!"
"Yes, yes, you must kill me then, and unless absolutely necessary, never let them know the truth..."
“Darren Porter will hate me, he will kill me, he will never know the truth!”
Snape said, his voice choked with emotion.
Dumbledore looked at his face and said softly, "Don't you understand why I chose you?"
He loves you, he treats you like a father… He can't bear to kill you, listen to me, he won't kill you…
"But do you know how much pain he's in?"
Snape glared angrily at Dumbledore.
Dumbledore lowered his head.
He said softly, "It's necessary. It's necessary if we want them to survive. Every link in the chain must continue."
Snape looked into Dumbledore's eyes.
a long time.
He finally nodded.
What are you planning to have him do?
“That’s between me and them, Severus, don’t interrupt me…”
At a certain point, when Voldemort is worried that someone will kill Nagini and is protecting her, that's when you'll tell Harry about it.
"Tell him what?"
“Tell him about the night Voldemort tried to kill him.”
After Voldemort's spell was deflected by Lily, a piece of his soul landed on Harry's scar...
Don't interrupt me. I know you understand, but you don't realize how serious the problem is.
I once discussed this with Darren, and the reason Harry was able to connect with Voldemort's mind was because Harry had become Voldemort's Horcrux.
As long as he lives, Voldemort will never die!
"That boy has to die? Does Darren know?"
"I asked calmly."
Dumbledore sighed softly, "After our discussion, Darren asked me to erase his memory, but he will remember it after he learns about it, and he still has his plans."
As for Harry, it has to be Voldemort himself who does it, do you understand? It has to be Voldemort himself.
There was a long silence.
Snape said softly, "I thought, I thought all these years of kindness and protection you showed him were for Lily... for Potter..."
"All these years of training have been to help him better face all of this, to strengthen his bond with Voldemort, and to make him more courageous in facing death..."
Dumbledore kept his eyes closed.
"You're protecting him just so he can die at the right time?" Snape asked in horror.
He stood up.
He looked at Dumbledore.
The old man did not open his eyes at this moment.
But Snape didn't care anymore.
He seemed to want to laugh as he said, "Dumbledore, you've used me. Darren Porter has no soul."
If, if you had told me sooner, if you had told me sooner that Harry Potter had a soul, he would have been raised like a pig.
I'll take Darren away early...
I became a spy for you, I risked my life for you, and I distanced myself from my own child for you.
I did all these things for you, only to be met with your idea that Harry Potter should die...
Yes, don't look at me like that. Darren Porter is my child, he's my bloodline... at the very least, he has my blood.
I distanced myself from my child so that I could save both of Lily's children... But what about you?
Dumbledore, and you?
"You...that child has your bloodline?"
This is truly an incredible thing... I think I have even more guesses about Darren's origins now.
But Severus, you care about Harry so much too, is it because you've finally fallen for him?
"like?"
Snape waved his wand.
A doe rushed out.
But the doe changed.
It began to have the tail of a blue dragon.
"Is that enough?!"
Snape shouted angrily.
As Dumbledore watched his Patronus disappear, his eyes filled with tears.
Scene changes.
It was Snape talking to Dumbledore's portrait.
"What's next?"
"You must tell Voldemort the exact date Harry and the others left his aunt and uncle's house."
You must make Voldemort believe you are extremely loyal; try to get someone to suggest a body double...
Darren would probably come up with a better idea, like him replacing Harry!
The person who came up with this idea was Mundungus, and Darren certainly wouldn't take his suggestion; he'd have a better way.
Snape roared, his face ashen, "Aren't you afraid he'll kill Darren?"
"No, no, Voldemort will never kill Darren. That was the answer I received shortly before I died."
I think Voldemort will tell you the reason himself.
Screen transition.
Snape is drinking with Mundungus.
Mundungus's eyes were glazed over as he copied every single word Snape said.
The screen changes again.
This time, Snape was riding a broomstick, brandishing his wand and pretending to chase Darren when a Death Eater charged out.
He seemed to be casting a spell on Darren.
Snape unleashed his ultimate attack on the Death Eater's back.
The Death Eaters fell down.
Snape watched Darren being captured, his eyes red. But in an instant, his expression turned expressionless.
The screen disappears.
This time.
Snape was standing next to Sirius.
Sirius Black was under a Confusion Charm, and he led Snape into Grimmauld Place.
Snape found the letter Lily had written to Sirius, and he instructed Sirius to make sure to give it to Harry and the others.
Then he took Lily's photo.
He knelt on the ground and cried until late into the night.
Then, in the middle of the night, he came out of Sirius's room and waited outside Darren's room for a long time.
Followed by.
The picture changed again.
It is Phineas's portrait that is speaking to Snape.
“Principal, Darren hasn’t eaten anything today, yesterday, or the day before… He hasn’t eaten anything at all, and he’s unconscious now…”
Snape clenched his fist.
He rushed to Darren's dormitory.
He kicked the door open and immediately saw Darren, who was skin and bones and completely unconscious.
He was almost driven mad with anger.
But there was nothing he could do.
