Snape had come to Spinner's End; to tend to his home there he wanted to insure that it was taken care of & keep up with the up keep of it. He knew that it would do nice to have a second place to go if something happened or if he just wished for some time alone, it was not as likely that people of the wizarding world would come looking for him here, not that some had not in the past but, it was not as likely.
After a bit of time at his home, it was clean & looked to be where some one truly lived there all the time. He had though at one point to sell the home but, he was glade that he had not in the end. He also did well to cast a spell on the house to keep it clean tell he came back & also insure that muggles would not be wanting to come cheek the place out.
With all that done he left & allowed him self to walk the streets of the muggle world, true he still had his main school robes on but, there style where more a suit looking so it did not draw attention to him, as for his outer robes they had been changed to something more suiting a cloak that was more muggle style though he did not plain to be here long he still knew how best not to bring more attain to him self then needed.
He drew the hood of his cloak to hide his face as he walked down the streets.

Riley walked out of a rather large house, the home of her sister and her husband. She was laughing and at the end by the gate she turned and waved goodbye.
She wore a dark blue coat that resembled a cloak with a pair of old, dusty boots and some jeans with a lace blouse underneath. She had a parcel of books in hand that her sister had given her and she held onto them by the string. Riley walked somewhat quickly down the street knowing that she had to meet her brother before dark at the train station, and she wanted to go spend some time reading beforehand.

Snape had continued to walk down the steet allowing his mind to wander, though he knew that he would have to soon head back to the wizarding world so he did not plain to stay here to long. With this in mind Snape turned to head down another steet, one that was a quick way to get back to the wizarding world, though he could of floo he desided he could use the walk.

Riley walked down a side street and came out to the main road that would take her to the train station the fastest. She looked up just as she saw a hooded figure walk by. She tilted her head as if confussed to see someone walking with a hood covering their face in broad daylight. All of the sudden something buzzed inside her pocket.
Taking out her phone, a muggle device her brother had gotten her to keep in contact. "Hello?"
"Oh, hi Matthew." Riley listened to her brother speak on the other end.
"What?! Uncle Robert....you aren't coming....I....I?" Riley clutched the books in her hand as if the burning sensation from the string would keep her from falling over.
"Why would someone want to...oh poor Uncle Rob! Do...do you want me to go back and tell Jessie about it?" Riley asked Matthew as she continued walking.
"Oh...so does this mean you aren't picking me up? Ok...I understand. I can walk back home it's fine. Don't worry I'll be careful." Riley walked faster as if trying to steady her wobbly knees.
"Matt, remember if you find the person who murdered Uncle Rob, you must show mercy. You have to show forgiveness. Please, it's what he would have wanted." Riley pleaded.
With his goodbye, Riley hung up the phone and slipped it back into her coat pocket. Strange how the happiest of days could turn to pure sorrow in seconds. Riley walked some more knowing that her family had been targeted again, and this time they had lost. The string slipped from her finger and the parcel of books fell to the ground with a loud thud. Riley swayed and weakly knelt down on her hands and knees on the dusty road.

Snape had continued walking not really looking at those he passed or at least most the time, he was not as fearful of an attack here compared to the wizarding world. When he heard something behind him, as he glanced to see what it was he saw someone picking things up off the ground, from here he could not tell who it was. He stopped before moving in the direction of the person, perhaps it was not so much he cared about them picking things up or who it was but, that it might be a trap or that to get a shot off at him.

Riley shakily stood up as she told herself not to cry. Her Uncle Robert hadn't been that fond of life but it was too cruel for him to be taken away this way. She dusted herself off and began to stack the books on top of eachother, retying the string.
She looked up and she saw the figure approach her and then she realized with shock that it was Professor Snape. What on earth was he doing here? Riley looked around frantically as if she wanted to hide somewhere. She couldn't let him see her like this, her words would fail her and only spring forth a fountain of tears.

Snape approached the figure as his approach closer he saw it was Riley, he had not forgotten his words to Reniara but, he would make sure to keep it short or try to but, at least insure it was nothing more then talk. “Good day Riley, we should quite meeting like this” Of course the last time had been at the Three Broomsticks but, before that it was her picking up parchment of the shop floor.

Riley looked up at Professor Snape, her voice quivering slightly. She took a deep breath. "Good day to you Professor, as horrible a day it ever was."
Riley turned and looked around not really wanting Snape to see her like this. "Well, it's not my fault that we keep bumping into eachother. I at least have an excuse, my sister lives here. What are you doing here? Never mind...I've...I've got to go help...plan a funeral. I'm sorry." Riley said breathlessly as she kept talking as if trying to hold off the tears.

Snape heard her words though he did not get the chance to say anything as she took off but, he was supprised to hear the news. He was not sure what happened & he did not ask but, he also knew that it would have to be looked into by some one to find out if it was form an attack or other wise. With that he moved to head back to the wizarding world.
