Jack opened his eyes and blinked in confusion at the white walls. ‘oh hell not this room again ' He closed his eyes again and sighed in resignation,  waiting for the squirrel to appear when a groan that definitely did not sound like a squirrel startled him. Looking over, he smirked as he saw Nathan Stark rising to his feet holding his head.

 

"You’re not a squirrel Stark but welcome to my room of insanity" 

"What the hell are you talking about Carter and where the hell are we? Get us out here, you're the Sheriff" Nathan responded, while examining the room suspiciously.

"We’re waiting for the squirrel, the evil squirrel demi god of doom Stark. Prepare for judgment! "Jack lay back down on the floor to patiently wait.
 

Nathan gave Jack an indescribable look 'I always knew his brain had missing pieces...wait... I hear voices...is that a corridor? That wasn't there before.'

 

"Carter wake up there’s a corridor and voices..humankind it sounds like, ever hear of that species before Carter?" Without waiting for a response, Nathan strode off down the corridor with a befuddled Jack trailing after him muttering "there was no corridor last time...where’s the damn squirrel"

At the end of the corridor they entered a room and stopped in astonishment. The room was odd to say the least, there was an old couch that looked as if it had seen world wars 1 and 2 with two battered looking desks and a trashcan in the corner holding what seemed to be a pile of papers on fire. In the middle of the room sat two women huddled over laptops with bottles of scotch and tequila scattered on a table already littered with chocolate bars and....was that a jar of m n m's?

 

Shaking his head Jack moved forward "uh ladies..excuse me, um..where is this?"

 

One of the women with short black hair looked up and responded to him with clear irritation in her voice. “You shush I can kill you and I wouldn't be bothered! I've killed you six times already and it didn’t even cause a twinge."

Jack stepped back in shock and tried to fumble at his belt for his gun only to find that Nathan had appropriated it already.
 

Just as he turned to Nathan, trying to quickly plot out ways to get to safety, the other woman spoke up in a tired voice, “Really
snarkyandsparky, wasn’t that just a little sadistic?" She turned around to look at them. Jack and Nathan stared at the two in shock and confusion. 

"Then again brighids_fire, Nathan dying did give me writers block" the woman who they guessed was
 snarkyandsparky mused. 

"What do you mean I died!?" Nathan cried out in disbelief, "am I dead? is this some sort of afterlife because honestly I didn’t picture it stuck with him"

"Watch it you, just because you're hot and sexy and all tall, dark and snarky doesn't mean....wait was my point again? " brighids_fire continued munching on her sugar quill 'never mind ok point is we all know Nathan's soul is worth more than Jack's. Now let’s see..." She turned to
 snarkyandsparky " I raise you by 15 m and m's red!" 

Unable to resist, Nathan turned to Jack who stood there sputtering in indignation " See Carter, even in the afterlife I'm worth more than you"

Snarkyandsparky looked up distractedly at the comment as if she forgot they were there." You're not supposed to be in here you know. Go back to your fandom! Poof!!! Go!!!"

As Jack and Nathan watched each other fade away they wondered if it was their imagination or did they really hear those last few lines of conversation...

A muttered "obliviate" from brighids_fire followed by the sounds of a smack as
 snarkyandsparky wryly commented “wrong fandom again brighid!"

Somewhere...in another white room....a squirrel lay on the floor surrounded by acorns cackling with mad laughter.

Beware the wrath of the....squirrels

Title: Beware the wrath of the……….squirrels?


 

 As twilight descended on the town of Eureka, Jack was on his way back home to meet with Nathan. Glancing out his window he observed a seemingly innocuous squirrel scurrying along the branches of tree, innocently, it seemed to anyone who cared to look as if it was hunting for acorns or as it was Eureka... perhaps some bio-engineered nutritious nuts. Jack snorted to himself as he realized he was becoming almost immune to the oddities that made up Eureka. Looking up he was startled to observe that the once clear and peaceful sky was now filled with ominous looking clouds as the sound of thunder could be heard rumbling closer. Snapping his attention back to the road he wondered idly if someone's weather experiment was let loose again ......or if falling asleep to Ghostbusters re-runs really was a bad idea. Suddenly, he screeched to halt gasping at the squirrel that now sat on his windshield with glowing red eyes. 

Jack tried to take deep breaths in between repeating to himself, “this is a dream, nope not seeing rabid evil squirrels nu uh, especially ones that look really familiar, nope.... not seeing voyeuristic squirrels at all." He opened his eyes to see what he would later swear was a smirk on the squirrels face as everything around him began to dissolve. 

Moments later he opened his eyes again to see himself standing in a white room with the same squirrel in front of him munching away at a nut innocently. Jack look around the empty room searching out possible escapes routes only to find none. Backing away he stared at the squirrel. “I must be either losing my mind or else this is Fargo's fault. FARGO!" he yelled only to hear a quiet snickering that seemed...to be coming from...the squirrel. Eyeing the squirrel with trepidation he wondered if talking to the squirrel meant that he was really locked up in a padded room under some heavy hallucinogenic drugs. 

The squirrel, hoped closed and to his surprise addressed him in a squeaky voice. “I’m not a squirrel you moron, I am a demi - god and I've been jumping through time trying to save your ass, but no you just continue throwing yourself in near death or fatal situations, snarking at Stark when you really should just jump him before he fades away into molecules or trying to save you from headaches after you almost die for the 1 millionth time.!!! You need to stop! There is only so much a demi god can do before he cracks!" the squirrel levelled a glare at Jack as he sat with a thump on the floor.

"Demi god...squirrels...molecules..." spots swam before his eyes as he fainted. The squirrel sighed and with a wave of his bushy tail disappeared muttering about weak humans.

Sitting up with a gasp Jack looked around the familiar room. "SARAH?"

"Yes Jack? Would you like an early breakfast? "

"NO NO that's fine, Perimeter and interior scan SARAH."

“Only you and Zoe are inside and perimeter is secured."

Jack sighed in relief and headed to the kitchen. Looking up at the skylight as he took a sip of coffee, the mug fell crashing to the floor as he stared in horror at the squirrel peering down at him.

Whisper - Chapter 2

  • Jun. 18th, 2009 at 2:42 AM
Snarry Bye
 Ok so clearly I'm having a productive night er... morning. I just cancelled my retreat day in favour of staying in bed yay me !

ok so here's chapter 2... 


Time is a companion that goes with us on a journey. It reminds us to cherish each moment, because it will never come again. What we leave behind is not as important as how we have lived" .- Star Trek: Generations .



Pacing the room anxiously, Severus waited to hear what the healers had to say about this latest round of tests...surely they would just say that nothing had changed and things would continue as is. He didn’t dare hold onto any hope that something would have changed and Harry’s magic was eliminating the cancer. No, it was best to simply hold onto the thought that the news could not get any worse. There would be no change. 

Turning, he resumed his pacing, focused intently on the ground when a pair of black shoes entered his vision and he encountered a wall unexpectedly. Looking up he nodded to Lupin and resumed his frenetic pacing. 

“Any news yet Severus?” He looked up into concerned eyes. “No, no news yet...they should be done already. I don’t know what is taking those inept fools so long” he spat in derision. 

Silence fell again in the room as they waited impatiently for some sign of what was going on. 

Hurried footsteps sounded in the corridor approaching the room and both men turned in expectation. Harry entered the room with a healer and sat down as Severus sneered at the lime green robes of his companion. “Well?? Full disclosure Harry, you promised”. 

“ Sev, Healer Applewhite has suggested some new drugs he would like me to try, and I think that I will make the attempt. I have responded comparatively well to treatments before and I’ve decided to try it again.”

Severus stared at Harry in astonishment. Forgetting all bravado he dropped to his knees in front of Harry grabbing his hands in an attempt to stop the nervous fidgeting Harry was displaying. “I thought you were adamant that you weren’t going to try treatment. "

“I know... but there is a good chance this will give me some more time. I need to do this Sev.” Harry stood and turned towards the window waiting for the response he knew would be difficult for Severus to give him. But he had to do this, he couldn’t die. Not yet. Not so soon. He wasn’t ready for this. The irony that a muggle disease would be the one to kill him when Voldemort could not succeed all these years was too much. 

Severus stared in shock at Harry’s back, his mind trying to process what was happening in the moment. Something just simply did not make sense. There was a piece of the puzzle missing and he wasn’t sure just ... “How fast is the cancer progressing? What stage are you at now? Has it changed?” 

He rattled off the questions anxiously hoping that the answers were not the reason for Harry’s change in decision. Silence descended on the room as Remus and Severus waited for a response. 

Observing Harry’s knuckles grow white as he clenched the windowsill harder, Healer Applewhite cleared his throat to get the men’s attention and responded to Severus’ query quietly. 

“The cancer has doubled in size over a period of 6 weeks gentlemen, Harry is in stage four at present.”

Severus barely heard Remus’ whispered question beside him, asking the healer how long they had left. His world narrowed to focus on the answer to that question. 

“Six months.”

He slowly dropped to sit on the chair, eyes focused on the blue specks on the floor. Two simple words. Yet, words that would forever mark a chapter in his life. Those were the words that put a limit on the time he had. 

Severus sat there feeling an indescribable sense that this moment was important. That it was the hallmark of something that he would forever remember. It was moments like these,that were memorized and stored away in mental photo albums to be pulled out later on in life and acknowledged for their profound impact. 

Biting down the surge of panic that threatened to overwhelm him, Severus rose to his feet and approached Harry. Laying a hand on his shoulder and absently feeling the tense muscles, he spoke gently to him. 

“Whatever you decide to do Harry, I will support you in it. No matter what. But I do worry that you are reacting to the news. Please, think about it for a while, and know that even if your decision does not change... I....will not disapprove.”

He suppressed a sigh of relief as Harry turned to look at him with less trepidation and nodded his thanks abruptly. As he stood close, Severus inhaled the scent of vanilla that always seems to surround Harry. 

Forgetting everyone else in the room he gave in to the impulse to enfold Harry in his arms. Holding on tightly to the slender body he closed his eyes wishing he could take all of this away. Though the idea of appropriating a time-turner was becoming highly appealing, he knew that would only make things harder in the end. Time could not be stopped, inevitably, there would be an end. 

But for this moment...he would hold onto this part of him and imagine that he would never have to let go. 

At the sound of a cough, he opened his eyes and slowly released Harry. Looking around he noticed the healer has left the room, leaving Remus standing near the door. 

He stood back and gently nudged Harry towards Remus. " Come Harry, let's get out of here and go to Fortescue's. Remus looks like he's in need of a sugar rush." Seeing Harry safely into Remus' arms he turned to look back at the empty room they were vacating. Cataloging the space in his mind, he closed his eyes for a brief moment and stepped into the waiting floo. As the green flames whisked him away, he inhaled sharply as he heard a whisper of sound come to him from the empty room. 

Six Months.

Snarry Bye
Alright I know I already have another WIP that I do need to finish, but the elusive muse is stuck on this one right now, but I promise I'll get around to updating my other fic. Trying a new *contemplative look* 'thing' with this fic. Let's see how it goes. As always constructuve feedback and all around cheers will be rewarded with cookies. Flames...well...I do need some fertilizer for my garden. Its fiction!:) If you are underage or have issues with same-sex pairings, this is not your cup of tea. Onwards with the show!!!! ok LJ cut refuses to work for me this morning but I refuse to be defeated so I'm posting as if for now. 
 
*tackleglomps* [info]snarkyandsparky  for her all around awesomeness and help with this fic. ( And for not hunting me down and smacking me with a dead fish for not finishing 'All these emotions' yet. ) 
 
Whisper: Chapter 1
 
This story is based on characters and situations created and owned by JK Rowling, various publishers including but not limited to Bloomsbury Books, Scholastic Books and Raincoat Books, and Warner Bros., Inc. No money is being made and no copyright or trademark infringement is intended. *Turns pockets inside out* see? no money! ooohh chocolate :D *walks off munching happily*
 
Only a whisper marks the tearing of a soul.
 
Counting down the hours until the darkest part of night was over; Severus stared at the dismal clouds through the window. The entire world it seemed was hushed in silent empathy for his emotions. Harry was dying and this time he couldn't be the one there to protect him, nothing he could do, no spells, no potions nothing would work.
 
The rage slowly built within him at his helplessness. All those years of study, the hours brewing, the pride of being the youngest Potions Master, the unerring drive and dedication that earned him so much praise and criticism was now useless. 'Oh how the mighty fall' he spat as he recollected himself at the young age of 24 riding high on his success and the belief that he was dedicated enough and clever enough to produce an antidote for everything.
 
Now there was nothing. Nothing but the false hopes that his Harry would live free of this disease. He knew it back then with the whispered hope that it was over, that nothing in life came easy , that the good always turns to bad but for a few brief moments he let hope take root. And more fool he.
 
Turning back to the room he watched his Harry slouched onto the chair with his head in his hands, the turmoil evident in his eyes. He couldn't do this he decided, as he started to mutter about the days tidings of work and stress and how was he ever going to get through leaving Hogwarts. He ignored the quiet reassurances as he bitterly scorned himself internally.
 
Even now faced with his own mortality, Harry would be the one to comfort him when it should be the other way around. How he longed to bite back the words of frustration and irritation he spewed whenever Harry upset him. Hadn't he learnt? Hadn’t life sent him enough close calls that he would treasure each bloody moment. That he would learn understanding and patience and see beyond. Clearly not. As he turned to floo through the flames, he looked back and troubled green eyes and felt silenced by his own inadequacies. 
 
Maybe he could never change...maybe he would always be what they called him, a selfish bastard. But for once he wished he could rush in and save the day again even though he knew, he knew it in his heart that it was the end.
 
Severus held himself stiffly as he stalked through the dungeons to his rooms. Uncaring at the sudden whispered sounds of amorous couples trying to hide themselves from his notice...for once in his life he didn't have the energy to even muster up the glee that he usually felt at taking points.
 
He whispered "émeraude yeux" his password feeling a pulse of pain rip through him with the thoughts of green eyes and sank onto the floor just inside the door holding himself taught as he replayed his conversation with harry over and over in his mind. Staring blankly at the wall he forced himself move to the writing desk as he wrote quickly on a piece of parchment through glazed eyes.
 
“That feeling you had… its come true…Harry's dying... cancer…don't know what to do". With a flick of his wrist the parchment was rolled, sealed and snapped up by his waiting owl and sent on its way.
 
Sinking back down he felt the walls in his mind close in. he couldn't think…couldn't remember…couldn't breathe. It was as if the blackest night had set upon his soul and he felt nothing. This wouldn't be so bad he thought. "I can do this…I can do this" he repeated more firmly. 
 
The sound of the floo activating went unheard and he stared at the polished boots in front of him blankly. “I can do this", he slowly looked up into warm amber eyes and tried to speak through the pain of his heart clenching. "I can't do this" he whispered staring at his friend unseeingly.
 
 
"You can and we will get through this" came the soft response and strong hands grabbed him and helped him up to the sofa. "What happened"?
 
 
Severus stared at Lupin blindly soaking in the comfort that his unlikely friend gave him. Who would have thought that after years of enmity Severus Snape and Remus Lupin would be friends. But Remus was one friend who quietly stood by him, never pushing and even understood his snark and morbid sense of humour. The only one he counted on right now to not push him further when he felt as if he was standing unseeingly at the edge of his sanity. 
 
Taking a deep breath he recounted the conversation and the details of the cancer spreading as if he were standing outside his body and it wasn't him living this experience. As silence fell, he wrapped his hands around a cup of tea Lupin summoned from the kitchen and stared into the flames.
 
 
"We get through this right? We survive, and if we don't survive we endure. I can do this. ..Oh Merlin...what the fuck was wrong with me, he's there facing death and all I'm doing is going on about stupid Hogwarts. What's wrong with me Lupin, how am I going to tell Minerva this, I don't even know if the Weasley's know yet, I'm going to have to tell them I know it, how can he… oh Merlin help me I’m babbling like a feeble minded first year who's been confronted by the depths of his asinine stupidity " he rose, filled with self disgust only to be stopped cold by a resounding smack to his head. 
 
Turning, he stared at Lupin in shock wondering what he had done to deserve that. Impassive eyes watched him calmly “you need to calm down. Don't do anything too stressful right now, just take it easy. I'm sorry this is happening Severus"
 
 
He backed away quickly as Severus advanced on him angrily " no you don't say sorry Lupin you don't we don't' DO sorry. Just… please don't" he added quietly and then turned startled as he heard Remus' response of “don’t make me smack you again!" Sighing he returned to the couch and sat mumbling " you know I'm right".
 
Shaking his head Remus sat next to him " yes I agree with you but it won't stop me from smacking you again. Take tonight, just let yourself feel and then we'll deal with everything tomorrow, unless you want to talk to him tonight?" 
 
Severus shook his head. I've done enough for tonight. I'll get more information tomorrow and deal with everything then. He closed his eyes to the sound of the floo activating and spent the night tossing and turning to dreams of emerald green snakes falling on him and a voice telling him to breathe and not show fear and it will all be okay. He woke up the next morning screaming in terror checking for the snake bites that felt very real.
