The hot summer air raced across the jet black hair of Artemis DeLye, who was seeking to become the new History of Magic professor. Professor Binns decided to retire, even though Artemis couldn't see why. I mean, Professor Binns was a ghost for petes sake! Not only did he retire, but almost all the professors retired. Professor McGonnagal did't retire though, she just stepped down from her spot as Headmistress. Artemis had no idea who was the new Headmaster/Headmistress now, but she egarly wanted to know.
She had a feeling she wouldn't get the job as the History of Magic professor since she was only nineteen, but that never stopped her from trying. She was waiting outside her house in Hogsmade for an owl to come. It would say wether or not she was Hogwarts new History of Magic teacher. She bit her lip so hard it bled, and the sun started to set. She went back inside her house and lit the fire. She began to cook something to eat. Normally she would go to Madame Rosmerta, but she was egar for her letter from Hogwarts.
An hour passed and Artemis was still waiting. The moon was begining to appear, making her pale skin looking paler. Her pale blue eyes were shining brightly, waiting for the letter to appear. She heard a knocking at the door, and wondered who it was. She opened the door and a man, maybe about twenty-four, came in. "Are you Artemis DeLye?"
"Yes, I am." Artemis said.
"I am Andrei Calomore. The new Headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry." Andrei said. "I am happy to announce that you are Hogwarts new History of Magic Professor." Artemis smiled.
"Really?" Artemis said. She had half a mind to pinch herself to see if she was dreaming.
"Yes." Andrei replied. "We need you to be at Hogwarts in about a week. That is about four days before the Hogwarts schoolyear starts. All professors are required to do that so they can set up the rooms and start making lesson plans."
"Of course. I only need to walk there, so I can manage it." Artemis replied.
"I am also happy to say that you are the youngest professor in Hogwarts history." Andrei said.
"Cool." Artemis said. "But..wait. What if the sudents, exspecially the seventh years, don't listen to me or take me seriously?"
"That's what rules are for." Andrei said. "I must go now. I shall see you in about a week."
"Okay then." Artemis said. Andrei left, and Artemis squealed in delight. She was now Professor Artemis DeLye. This was byfar the best day of her life. She packed most of her stuff and put it by a table. She got her pet owl, which was midnight black, and named Midnight, and said to it, "I'm a professor now. Eep!" She got out a quill and wrote a letter to her parents, got out her owl, tied the letter to the owl, then sent the owl off into the night. Professor Artemis DeLye. Artemis thought. Professor DeLye. I like the sound of that. She went into her bed, having sweet, sweet dreams of teaching at last.
