///Still awesome
Grey had managed to catch the wand before it fell, her gaze hardening impossibly more. She narrowed her eyes at his words, not trusting him. At her side, Ellie began to shake, uneasy. Grey knew the child would not utter a cry, but she still do not like her to be witness to whatever was to happen. She released her shoulder. "Ellie, go inside, now,"she ordered crisply, her eyes never leaving Snape. Ellie glanced once at Snape before dashing to the house. She took the steps two at a time before vanishing into the darkness of the house. Grey straightened, her back stiff.
"You and I both know you would not kill me Severus. You want answers, answers only I can give you. The question is, will I give you what you want?"The woman began circling him, like a cat stalking a mouse. Only in this situation, Snape was a snake who could deliver a killing bite. "I've heard about what you did.About what you have done.Now you show up with Ellie in toe? Why should I trust a word out of your lying mouth?"She stopped in front of him, a change in her eyes. Sadness.
For a brief moment, Grey risked letting her guard down. Despite who Severus was, he was still the brother of her best friend. The uncle of the child she loved as her own. "You know who Ellie is, don't you?"she whispered. Her grip tightened on her wand as she struggled to reign in her emotion. "That girl is so much like her mother. It nearly kills me sometimes. She says stuff she would have said. She gives me looks like she had."Grey shakes her head. "What are you doing here Severus? How did you find us?"
