Sirius bullying Snape may have had something to do with Snape's interest in the Dark Arts. At the time, this may have been seen as an unusual behavior and was targeted by Sirius and others. Furthermore, Sirius and James Potter were a little lacking in self-control during their school days, and might have behaved in a manner similar to school bullying. Part of Snape's dislike of Harry stemmed from Harry's resemblance to James Potter, which also reflected the conflict between James Potter (Sirius's good friend) and Snape. Sirius, as a good friend of James Potter, might also bully Snape. Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire was not enough. Everyone, please click to read the novel!
I haven't come across a 'snape is sirius slave' fanfiction myself. Fanfiction themes can be very diverse, but this one seems rather unorthodox and might not be as common. However, the world of fanfiction is vast, and new works are being created all the time, so it's possible that someone has written it, but it may be difficult to find.
Snape might be given a warning by Dumbledore at first. Just a simple 'stop this behavior or else' kind of warning.
In some fanfictions, Sirius might be portrayed as delusional about Snape due to their long - standing enmity in the original story. Sirius has always suspected Snape of being a Death Eater, and this suspicion could be exaggerated in fanfiction, making him seem delusional.
One common theme is redemption. Many fanfics explore the idea of Snape or Sirius finding a way to redeem themselves in the eyes of the other. For example, Snape might do something heroic to earn Sirius' respect.

Sirius and Harry had a kinship. He regarded Harry as his own family, and his love for Harry was based on family feelings and the deep feelings of missing Harry's parents. He longed to live with Harry and give him the warmth of a family. Snape's feelings for Harry were even more complicated. He loved Harry's mother, Lily, and his love for Lily extended to protect Harry. Although he appeared to be strict and even harsh to Harry, he had always been secretly protecting Harry. This was a responsibility and protection that stemmed from his deep affection for Lily. It was difficult to simply compare Sirius's love for Harry with Snape's. Their love for Harry had different origins and manifestations. Sirius's love was more of a direct familial concern, while Snape's love was hidden under the stern appearance, and more of a guardian derived from his persistent love for Lily. Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix is not enough. Please click to read the novel!
Well, perhaps one of the other teachers might have noticed Snape's behavior towards Harry and reported it to Dumbledore. It could also be that Dumbledore, being as perceptive as he is, noticed Snape's extra harsh treatment of Harry during their interactions in the corridors or in class.
One popular fanfiction on this topic might be 'The Marauders' Era: Bullying and Redemption'. In it, it really delves into the complex relationships. It shows how the Marauders' bullying of Snape was not just simple schoolyard teasing but had deeper roots in their different backgrounds and personalities. For example, James was often jealous of Snape's intelligence in potions. This fanfic also explores Snape's perspective, how he felt isolated and targeted, which made him more bitter. It's a great read for those who want to understand the dynamic better.
