I am keeping my fingers crossed that Harry will save Snape's life. 

Egplant:
 
If he did Snape would just sneer and say "Well Potter I see you're 
trying to play the hero again, be sure to alert the media." No I 
have a better cliffhanger to end the next book with:

Snape and Harry are having the worst fight yet, it looks like they 
are about to come to blows when suddenly Voldemort appears and sends 
a lethal curse toward Harry. Without hesitation Snape jumps in front 
of Harry and received the curse instead, he saves Harry's life but 
dies instantly in the process. Harry now feels guilty for all the 
terrible things he called Snape just a few seconds ago, but mainly 
Harry is puzzled; why did Snape, a man full of hate, sacrifice 
himself for me. You'll have to wait for book 7 to find out. 



Alla:

I think you misunderstood me. I want Harry to save Snape's life ONLY 
IF (IMO, of course) Snape will have to be punished at the end.

If nothing else, I consider Snape to be the man of honor, I also 
think that he does consider himself to be in James' debt (whether 
you call it life debt or just a debt, it is canon).

I think that if Snape does not acknowledge Harry for who he is in 
book 7 and continues degrade and humiliate him, Harry saving Snape's 
life will be the best punishment for Snape. What could be more 
fitting than for Snape to find himself to be in Potter's debt AGAIN?

Of course if such thing happens and Harry survives at the end too, 
he better not send his kids to Hogwarts :o)

If Snape will encounter an attitude change towards Harry, well then 
his heroic death I think will be one of the options he seeks, 
although of course I prefer to see him alive at the end.

By the way, whatever happens, it is not going to be in book 6, you 
know that right?

JKR said that we will find out more about Snape in book 7
