I don't think any of the teachers, Snape included, would kill any of 
their students intentionally under any circumstances.

And now, a bit about Narcissa.  I don't really think that she will 
turn out to be working against Lord Thingies Minions but there are 
indications.

There has been a lot of mirror usage, from the Mirror of Erised to 
the mirror that talks to Harry at the Leaky Cauldron, to the mirror 
Sirius gave Harry.

Narcissa is presumably named after the Narcissus flower since there 
are a number of flower names, but the Narcissus is named after 
Narcissus, who fell in love with his *reflection* and stared at it 
until he died.

Reflection, mirror, et cetera and so forth.  Reflections are not the 
same as the original, they are reversed.  Could Narcissa have fallen 
in love with someone who is her opposite?  Considering that her 
family would certainly have favored the match, I can see a young girl 
getting swept away by a rich and dashing guy that her parents are 
gaga over.
