Eight years after the war, the veil in the Department of Mysteries takes unexplained action and somehow brings Severus Snape back to life. Only, the former professor and spy is now a four-year-old boy with no family and all of his past memories. Harry steps in to take care of the little boy, vowing to help him heal from his first life of trauma while keeping him safe from the dangers that still stalk their world. He becomes desperate to repay all the man had done for him now he had the chance. However, somewhere along the way, Severus Snape becomes far more than just a duty.

When Harry finds himself locked in a room that seems to be trying to kill him by Dumbledore, he knows he has to escape. Luckily, he gets help, but is brought to the one person he never would've thought to go to: Severus Snape. Under the man's protection, Harry will learn that his life has been a manipulated lie, there is a prophecy from Death himself-who likes to be called Nex?-Voldemort may be a better option, and he has a father who actually loves him. It's time for the Master of Death to step out of the shadows.

However, as the world gets torn apart by Voldemort's raging war in his 5th year, Harry is about to discover that everything he thought he knew all this time was a terrible lie and threatens to destroy everything he's created.

And what happens when you add that darned Potions professor in the mix?
