Summary
He wanted to live. As he journeys through time, Severus Snape realizes he may have bitten off more than he can chew when he made a deal with death. But as he sees faces of those long gone, he remembers the reason he chose to go back in the first place. However, death has rules for their arrangement.1. As soon as you enter this universe, you cannot leave. You have been ripped from one and thrust into another, and there is no turning back.2. Whatever makes this universe different from the first is entirely up to you. Other than the choices you make, it is a complete copy, and things will turn out exactly as they had prior to your reversal.3. Finally, the one catch of the deal. As long as you are in your own universe, your fate can never change. Do not run from it. Do not try to change it. No matter what you do, the ending will always turn out the same. However, it seems that deals with death are never that simple, and Severus Snape is going to learn the hard way that what seems too good to be true, probably is.
