I'm on the edge of my seat. I've been reading this story in batches and have been fascinated. Author's Response: I'm so glad you are enjoying it, Black Spot! Thanks for the review. :-)

Hi Maeve! This chapter makes me wonder a little... First of all, I understand Katherine has a very soft spot for Snape, so she's ready to accomplish almost his every request... I understand also that Snape is Snape, so he's arrogant and even cruel...but not a word of thanks, not a "OK, what will happen of you when we are gone?" If I were Katherine, I would probably have felt a lit bit used. Also, I understand this is a fiction, but two such fortunate events together - the arrival of the minister and a change of corridor, exactly the one needed - don't you think it is...well, too much? At least, Maeve is thanking Katherine, but leaves her with no clue of what is going to happen. Now we will have to discover which tale Katherine is going to tell, because she hasn't had the time to invent nothing. Another surprise from you? Anyway, I like the story very much, and I'm sorry is going to end. I too will miss Snape AND Katherine. (By the way, you can't imagine how your prose is helping my knowledge of English). Looking forward for more. Regards from Italy. Author's Response: Glad to be of servcie! LOL You'll have to forgive my naughty plot devices. The problem with this story was that it was only supposed to be a few fluffy chapters and then it grew and took over my writing time, so I needed to draw it to a close. The fact that the Minister arrived, and she managed to get herself onto the right corridor, was providence being kind. But let's face it, it would need something exceptional to get them out of Azkaban, so I had to give it to them. I rather miss Katherine too. I have been asked for an epilogue so maybe we will see her again. Maybe she'll end up with her own small story! LOL These characters will be the death of me. :-) And yes, she should have been annoyed with Snape, but she felt that this was some sort of debt repaid after the death of her family. She wanted to help someone because she could not help them. It was an act of selflessness on her part, I think. Hope you like the end of this. I took some stick from my editor over it. ;-)

Yes, what tails would she tell and would any one believe her? All I can imageine is that the Ministry would cover up Snapes disappearance and keep Katherine in Snapes wifes place to keep that particular disappearance from getting out any further either. This could end up very badly for her! Author's Response: That's an interesting slant on the story, and one I hadn't thought of doing. Yet it is something I can imagine the Ministry doing. shudders
