Chapter one: Malfoy

Harry's POV

It was the beginning feast and a lone woman walked through the door after Dumbledore had started his speech and Ron Elbowed me rather hard in the ribs silently telling me to check her out. I looked over to her waist length brown hair, Malfoy-ish walk and the sneer was all Malfoy she looked over to us and I caught sight of her eyes, a crystalline ice blue. She wasn't unattractive by any means but nothing. although the others could feel something or at least I hoped so from all of the whistling going on.

Normal POV

"Now I would like to announce to you all your new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher Miss Serenity Malfoy."

A loud uproar of which came from Ron and most of the Gryffindors, Harry spit out what he was drinking and dropped his goblet. Over at the Slytherin table Draco Malfoy's eyes grew slightly wider and his sneer dropped though only for a second. After the initial what's had gotten over with it was so quiet you could hear a pin drop

"Headmaster I am not all that hungry and am I correct in my assumption that my school quarters are empty." It wasn't a question instead the Malfoy command disguised as a polite statement.

"Yes Serenity they are and your password is the same" she nodded and left in the graceful fashion of a Malfoy. Within an hour and a half of dinner letting out there was a knock at the door

"Enter" A young blond boy walked in 'classes haven't even started yet and someone has questions good grief' "Yes." A pause "Speak or leave my sight"

"Temper, temper Professor Malfoy I wouldn't want word to go around that someone is ruining my family's name"

"Who are you and what business do you have with me" The tone was cooler but still held the bite of a Malfoy.

"I'm Malfoy. Draco Malfoy."

"I'm not impressed Mr. Malfoy. Now is there any real reason you bothered me?" Draco looked slightly annoyed but pressed on

"I just wanted to know if you really are a Malfoy. You don't look like one."

"I am a Malfoy but I am not in the mood for an interrogation" she guided him towards her door "now I have some unpacking to do so if you don't mind" the door closed behind him and she slipped into a chair 'Great a young Lucius. He'll have a field day when he finds out about this. Which will be sometime soon.'

A few hours later Serenity was finishing skimming over her curriculum for the year when she heard arguing in the hall

"Lucius calm down she is no more a threat to Draco than she is to any other student." Dumbledore said calmly

"I don't want her corrupting my son." Serenity opened her door and smirked

"Don't worry you did a good enough job of that" she said with venom dripping off every word "Daddy dearest" she went away from them Lucius apparating away with a loud pop. Serenity stalked through the halls until she came to the astronomy tower She sat and watched the stars for a while, aware of Harry hiding under his invisibility cloak. Still living alone for most of her life she became accustomed to thinking out loud.

"the system of pitting the houses against each other is screwed up and hates those caught in between. If only there was a system of splitting the students that wouldn't pit families against each other."

"Yes Serenity that is an excellent idea. Do you have any ideas?" Serenity stiffened and spun around holding her chest panting to see Albus standing there his eyes twinkling

"Albus please! You know that I nearly get a heart attack every time you do that and one of these days you'll do just that."

"Nearly never killed any one Serenity. Besides you are only twenty-eight. But that aside do you have any Ideas on how to split up the students fairly without breeding rivalries between the groups?" She looked at Harry who was as far as she could tell sitting behind Albus before sitting on the sill to one of the astronomy tower's windows and pulling some parchment, a quill and some ink before laying out guidelines and where the groups would be placed.

"They would henceforth be paired randomly with people from their own year. Those two would share a room. The names will be pulled out of a bucket of sorts Picked by their group leader, a teacher. That leader would then give advice and live in the dorms with the students only they would get their own room."

"how would that be done my dear?"

"Don't call me that." She bit out, "I think I will be in charge of group three. Severus can have group four, Minerva group two and Albus would you like to lead a group?"

"That would be splendid"

"Okay then you will lead group one."

"Good then we can tell the students at breakfast"

"Excellent…wait what? You mean you actually agree?" Her eyes lit up

"Yes I've been wanting to reform the house system. The hat is starting to get a little senile." Serenity giggled

"Yes the hat is starting to ramble. But the house points and cup should be taken out and instead there be a ball the second to last day of school."

"a beautiful idea." Harry moved out from under his cloak and from behind a box

"What about quidditch. If you split up the house teams how are we supposed to play quidditch?'

"Excellent question Mr. Potter. With only four teams only twenty-eight people can play but more people want to. This way if people make their own teams with their friends then those who want to play can. Then there will be a tournament and we'll find some prize for the winners"

"It sounds as if you have something in mind Miss Malfoy. This is your project you make the rules."

"The team that wins will have no homework that week or something and there'll be a weekly bulletin that'll answer the most asked questions. The dorms will be decorated by the teachers in the colors that students vote for. Sound good Harry?"

"Yeah but whose group will I be in Professor?"

"it's random. But you should get back to your dorm this will be your last night in it Harry. Goodnight." Serenity also started to head out she needed to make preparations.

That's it for this new one and I am getting around to the old ones I'm not sure who will be with whom but I'm leaning towards these:

HP/SS HG/RW DM/GW SB/RL and for Serenity to be paired with Charlie.
