Harry was nervous as he sat in Dumbledore's office beside his twin sister, Mary, waiting for Dumbledore to appear. It was his fifth year and it was his hardest due to the whispers and insults from fellow students who thought he and his twin were insane. Lately he had found himself wishing he could just skip this year, but that was impossible.

"Hello twins" he heard Dumbledore say as he entered the room "I have heard you've been facing some problems with you're fellow students". The twins silently nodded."If you are interested I have a way to solve that for you"

"Excuse me professor but is that possible?" Mary asked quietly

"Well I remember having a vacancy in the position of defense against the dark arts professor during your parents 7th year and I seem to remember it being filled by two young people"

"Do you mean us sir?" Harry asked

"Exactly Harry" Dumbledore said "I am going to use a spell on you and your sister to send you back to the past and you may become professors "

"That sounds nice sir" Mary said

"Are you two ready?" he asked. The twins nodded silently and he cast the spell.

Harry and Mary fell with thump outside of Hogwarts. Harry looked over to see that Mary looked like she did as a twelve year old.

"Harry you look twelve" she gasped

"So do you!" he exclaimed

"Well let's blame Dumbledore" she said. He chuckled and they strode into Hogwarts and up to the doors of the great hall.

"Dramatic entrance?" Mary asked

"Dramatic entrance" he confirmed. And she burst open the doors with a BANG.

James's p.o.v

BANG the doors of the great hall flew open to reveal two twelve year olds, a boy and a girl. The girl, who had long silky black hair and green eyes, strode up the isle towards the professors' table with the boy, who had uncontrollable black hair that looked just like James's and green eyes, right beside her.

"Hello professor Dumbledore I am Mary Potter and this is my twin brother Harry Potter and we would like to apply for the defense against the dark arts position" the girl said with her back straight, head up, and confidence in her voice.

"this kid has some nerve" I said to my friends Sirius , Remus, and Luke as a wave of laughter spread through the great hall at the thought of a twelve year old teaching.

"Well if you are willing to dual me I would love to consider your application." Dumbledore said

Both twins nodded and Mary was up first. She and Dumbledore bowed and Dumbledore sent a quick stunning jinx at her. She blocked it with a spell that made it bounce back 3 times harder at him. He blocked it but before he could send back another spell she got him with a disarming spell and caught his wand before returning it. Harry won his dual in a similar fashion.

"Well then students, meet your new defense against the dark arts teacher" Dumbledore declared
