Rated T for language, mainly. Sadly, I don't own anybody from the Harry Potter series. Please review! It would mean a lot to me.

The Journey to Paradise

"Look . . . at . . . me."

The words barely escaped my lips as I stared into those emerald eyes and the darkness closed in around me.

I was in a realm of darkness. It's as if my soul was wandering across a land. My thoughts wandered to Lily, and I wish I knew where I was.

Suddenly, I was thrown into a never-ending world of white and I was in my body again, wearing my classic black robes. As I looked around, I saw a figure walking towards me and my heart fluttered, remembering Lily. I just knew she had come to lead me "on," wherever that may be. With Lily, I would go anywhere.

"Hey Snivellus," a voice interrupted my thoughts, and I knew that my assumption was wrong. Two of the men who made my life hell were strutting towards me: Sirius Black and James Potter. I reached for my wand, but it wasn't there.

"No magic here, Grease Head," Sirius said with a smirk.

"What are you two doing here? I must be in hell," I retorted.

"Ha Ha, Snape. Your attempts at humor have gotten no better. Of course we're not in hell; I'm having too much fun tormenting you."

"Give it a rest, Sirius," Lupin said, walking towards the other three men with Peter Pettigrew reluctantly stepping forward behind him.

James, Sirius, and I took one look at Pettigrew and yelled out, "YOU WORTHLESS PIECE OF SHIT! YOU BETRAYED US/HER! YOU BASTARD!" All three of us ran up to the cowering man and were about to start throwing punches until we heard a familiar voice resound from above:

"Hold on there, boys."

"Dumbledore!" I couldn't help myself. I had missed seeing the headmaster's cheerful face each day at Hogwarts. "Where are you?"

"Right here, Severus." Dumbledore didn't sound so far away this time. That was probably due to the fact that he was standing right behind us. All five of us turned to listen to the words of the man we all admire.

"Hello. I am here to inform you of the task at hand. You all have been brought here for one reason – to settle your differences with each other before you return to or, in Severus' and Lupin's cases, enter the world beyond. Severus, I know that your relationship with all of these men is probably the worst combination here; so, this is the order that you shall settle your differences with each man: Remus, Peter, Sirius, and, finally, James. After that, Severus, you will go on, and the rest of you men will follow when you have settled your differences with Mr. Pettigrew. Now, it has been a pleasure to see you all again, but I really must depart. I hope you all can settle your differences. And Severus and James, I speak directly to you now. I want you two to know that I have talked with Lily, and she wants this situation to occur just as much as I do. You both need her, and settling your problems is the only way to see her again. Goodbye. "

Just like that, Dumbledore was gone. Now came the challenging part: Severus and Remus were in a white room together. Their time had come.

I hope you liked it. If you're interested in seeing what happens please review, and I shall continue the story. I am only going to write the parts with Severus. If you really like it, I can write the other parts later. Thanks!
