  Carol responds:
  I agree. If Snape is ESE! or OFH!, it's a given that he would return
  to LV. But I think DDM!Snape would do the same thing. Almost the sole
  advantage he has gained from killing Dumbledore is maintaining his
  cover with Voldemort, and going anywhere else would destroy the
  illusion of loyalty. Also, it appears that Draco Disapparated as soon
  as he passed the gates, and Snape, IMO, would follow Draco, who
  (unless he wants to share the fate of Karkaroff) wouldn't dare to do
  anything else except return. And Snape, even if the UV is no longer in
  effect, is bound by his promise to Narcissa (and, I think, by his own
  wish) to protect Draco.
  Carol, 

  Andie:
  Just a thought but  why couldn't Snape & Draco apparate to the
  Malfoy home.  At least this way Narcissa would know what happened
  to her son and that Snape kept his UV.  Bella would be around and
  she could add her 2 cents to the other DE's that DD was taken care
  of.
  Maybe there is some hidden area in the Malfoy house that Snape &
  Draco could hide in for a while.  For all the times Mr. Weasley raided
  the house on information that Harry gave him and then found nothing
  while Harry knew there were things to find there has to be a
  concealed area that no one knows of.
  Just a thought.
