zgirnius:
I don't quite see how hiding in the forest is a viable option for any 
flavor or Snape, or for Draco for that matter. People who try to 
leave the Death Eaters in this manner, die. (FOr two examples, 
Regulus Black and Igor Karkaroff). DDM!Snape is not able to protect 
Draco from Voldemort by hiding him. *Dumbledore* could do that, but 
Snape's relationship with the Order is not, at present, in good 
shape. <g>

I think DDM!Snape's best bet is going to be to go face the music with 
Draco and hope Voldemort's in a good mood. (He might be. Draco's 
actions did set up the easy kill, and Dumbledore is dead. If 
Voldemort had some niggling doubts that Snape's DDM, their are gone.) 
It's also the move that would put him in the best position to help 
Harry/the Order in Book 7. Lurking in a forest with Draco somewhere 
he isn't going to be all that useful to his side.
