[Chapter Size: 1800 Words.]

Third Person POV

Hogwarts.

...

...

The door blew apart as Snape emerged from the smoke again, a scene all too familiar to some present, while the students stared at the boy, stunned, with their wands in hand, believing it was an attack.

Snape stopped, looking at everyone, as a threatening atmosphere took over the place with many students swallowing hard, wondering what had happened there and why Snape was staring at them as if he was looking for something.

Then Snape's gaze fixed on one person, "Geronimo, clean up this mess," he simply said.

The young noble nodded reluctantly, not wanting to go against the wishes of this new, intimidating Snape.

Geronimo met everyone's gaze, walked over to the door destroyed by Snape's brute force, and cast the "Reparo" spell, with the door returning to normal as if nothing had happened. Meanwhile, Snape shrugged and started walking towards his dormitory under the still stunned gaze of all.

"Wait!" A student interrupted Snape's path, while everyone still looked on in surprise.

"Why are you in my way?" Snape looked at the student, emitting a dangerous glow.

The seventh-year student stepped back, seeing those eyes, 'What's happening? Am I afraid of this half-blood?' the young Adrian, from the Rosier family. The Rosier family is known for its blood purity and a long history of loyalty to the oldest wizarding traditions, including a penchant for the dark arts. This puts Adrian in a privileged position, where he grew up with a sense of superiority and a deep respect for blood-purity-based hierarchies.

Adrian is more than just his surname. He is smart, cunning, and extremely skilled in magic, with a particular affinity for defense spells and dueling. However, his weakness is his arrogance and his unwavering belief in his family's status. He held his pride beyond his family and his own abilities; he should not be intimidated by anyone without support behind them and was even angry at Snape for making him go through this humiliation while many had looks there.

"Tell me what happened to you!" The 17-year-old demanded in a more arrogant tone after gaining some courage to confront Snape, after all, Snape had always been a nobody who had a talent for potions, without Lucius Malfoy's support, he was a nobody with some future.

"Why should I answer? Who are you?" Snape asked, frustrated, debating whether he could just kick this boy before returning to the dormitory.

"You don't know who I am?" The boy seemed a bit frustrated with that.

"No and frankly, I don't care, just get out of my way, I might not be nice in the next moment," Snape declared, already moving his fingers seeing the intent and arrogance of this boy, he wouldn't mind hitting a kid.

Adrian, already frustrated from before, exploded in anger. "I'm Adrian Rosier, you better remember that because not even your friend Lucius can help you if you annoy me. To get straight to the point, I heard you underwent a change as soon as you took some kind of potion and I want your potion, it doesn't matter if you lost it, my family will want it and it's better for you to do it, because the family won't let you go," the 17-year-old said frustratedly without caring if dozens of Slytherin students were hearing him threaten someone at this level.

If they were already shocked, what happened next was even more staggering, because before Adrian could react, a hand grabbed his neck, lifting the noble off the ground by Snape holding him, while the boy tried to breathe.

Adrian raised his wand ready to attack with some silent spell, after all, he couldn't even speak or cast in that state, but Snape anticipated this and grabbed his hand before he could aim the wand at Snape, under the astonished gaze of everyone, Snape thought of getting rid of this boy and simply threw him against one of the walls of this common room while the young man flew like a rag doll towards it, hitting the wall hard and falling to the ground unconscious with his wand rolling on the floor.

"..."

"..."

"..."

"..."

Everyone fell silent at that moment, staring in shock at Adrian lying on the ground after witnessing what had happened, especially afraid of Snape as he had thrown someone as if they were nothing, showing what kind of strength he now possessed or even his disregard for throwing a member of the Rosier family.

"You should take him to the infirmary; he has broken 3 ribs, dislocated his shoulder, and cracked a large portion of his bones with the impact," Snape said, feeling all the damage he had caused the young man, leaving everyone speechless.

He started walking now that the path was clear but didn't fail to leave his final thoughts, "Tell this wizard that he should strengthen his body, after all, he relies too much on magic and couldn't even withstand a fall, depending too much on his magic, which is pathetic, goodbye." Snape said as everyone continued in silence, but there was a thought for everyone at that moment.

'You threw him as if he was nothing and still say he has a weak body that couldn't withstand a fall while he was thrown against the wall so easily by you?!' Everyone internally exclaimed, not believing what they had just heard, but surely those who doubted what they heard from Snape before, now feared him as they saw him disappearing into the corridors heading to the dormitory.

"I told you! He's a monster!" A student whispers, eyes wide with terror and disbelief, taking a few steps back as he looked at the seventh-year student on the ground.

"He broke the Slytherin wall before... why? Wasn't it easier to just say the password?" Another asks with a slightly dazed voice, staring intently at the neatly repaired entrance by Geronimo, seeking answers in the faces of his peers.

"Nobody knows..." Geronimo whispered, baffled by Snape's strange behavior.

"Did you see what he did to Adrian, he's not afraid of the Rosier family?" A third-year girl exclaims, wondering if Snape has any idea what he did.

"Did you not just see what he did?! He doesn't care!" Another student shrugged while shaking his head.

"I wanted his potion too... but now I'd rather stay far away!" Muttered another fifth-year student who saw Snape in classes; he certainly was a bit scared.

"Someone call Lucius! He must talk to Snape because I don't want to talk to that guy!" A second-year student said, looking around at everyone there. "Why aren't there any sixth and seventh-year students here, Snape couldn't have done something like this if they were!" He exclaimed a bit frustrated, as no one had the courage to confront Snape's actions.

"What are we going to do...?" A girl asked with a cautious voice, looking at the young man still lying on the ground, believing every word from Snape about his current state.

"Isn't it obvious, we need to take Adrian to the infirmary..." A student says, going over to Adrian on the ground while others began to move to check the student's condition.

"He's really broken..." said one of the students making a diagnosis with his wand. "It's like Snape said, how did he know that just by throwing his victim?!" He asked, bewildered.

Lucius Malfoy had entered the Slytherin hall at that moment with his group, looking surprised as everyone was gossiping and talking loudly as if something big had just happened.

"What's going on here...?" Lucius asked Geronimo, who had stood by the door the entire time.

"Answer!" Black said impatiently, seeing that the boy hadn't responded to anyone immediately.

"Hm? Sorry!" Geronimo commented, scared. "It was Snape, he did something big." Geronimo said as Lucius raised an eyebrow.

"Snape? What did he do?" Lucius asked the room as many students turned their faces towards him.

"Lucius!!! You have to talk to Snape! He's a threat!" A fourth-year student said with some fear.

"What do you mean by a threat?" Lucius asked, frowning.

"Lucius! Look what your friend did, we need to take him to the infirmary fast!" Two students emerged from a corner carrying the unconscious Adrian, looking seriously unwell.

"What happened to him?" Lucius frowned while many of his group looked stunned.

"Snape threw him against the wall after grabbing him by the neck, you had to see it, he didn't even use his wand! Nobody knows what happened to Snape, but you better be careful around him! You better talk to him, after all, no one else has the courage to do so!" The boy spoke.

Lucius, though surprised and dazed, just nodded, deciding then to move through the students and head for the dormitory. "Hey, Lucius! What are you doing?" Someone asked.

"I'm going to talk to Snape, of course." He said, heading towards Snape's room, which he knew where it was from the last years of picking up some potions and asking the talented potion master for favors.

Lucius approached the door while alone in the corridor and knocked, "Snape! Are you there?"

The place was silent, and before Lucius could think that Snape wouldn't be in his room, a voice emerged. "Call me tomorrow, Lucius." Snape spoke from his bed, with no intention of getting out of it.

Lucius breathed out a bit at this, after all, Snape had never been someone who would treat him this way. Snape fell silent for a while and then spoke again.

"Tomorrow, Lucius, please don't bother me…" Snape said, but in a tone that brooked no negotiation.

Lucius, despite being frustrated with a few furrows on his brow, turned and left with heavy steps, a bit frustrated because Snape had never treated him this way.

Snape was a delicate subject for Slytherin at this moment, and seeing Lucius walking away empty-handed from that dormitory, it seemed to strengthen their beliefs even more that Snape was not someone to be tampered with easily. Many saw this, and there was also the absence of many students in the place, students who would not let this happen and surely would try to avenge themselves on Snape as soon as they learned what happened, besides him already being targeted by the Rosier family outside of school.

Snape was not just a topic of discussion within Slytherin; his name appeared throughout the school as heated discussions were held by all houses after everything he did on this day, his name had been marked for everyone there, wondering what the year would be like after he did all this in just one day upon returning.
