FIC: A Sort of Fairytale, Part 1

Ack! The deadline for the Trading Places challenge was yesterday, and I haven't finished my second piece yet, so I'll post the first two chapters, and I'll get the rest up as soon as possible. I blame it all on Sirius, who insisted on hogging the spotlight and made the story longer than I had planned! ;-)

Title: A Sort of Fairytale, Part 1
Author: geri_chan
Rating: PG-13
Pairing: Snape/Lupin
Word count: 6250
Disclaimer: No money is being made off this story; consider it a little wish fulfillment on my part. Characters belong to J.K. Rowling, except for Death, who belongs to Neil Gaiman.
Author's notes: Canon compliant up to HBP, more or less, but I made up my own ending to the series, although I borrowed a few crucial elements from DH. I borrowed the character Death from Neil Gaiman's Sandman series; she also appears in my story The Revenant (which can be found on Moonshadow or my website). You don't need to be familiar with the Sandman comics/graphic novels in order to follow this story, although I've thrown in a few little in-jokes for Gaiman fans.

Summary: Written for the Trading Places challenge on lupin_snape, based on karasu_hime's lovely artwork.  Sirius falls through the Veil, is greeted by Death, and is told that he has unfinished business to complete.
