Author's Note: This story was started a veeeeeeeeery long time ago when I was about 13, now I'm 18, you could imagine. My English wasn't too refined back then so please do forgive me in advance. Hope you like it and hope to continue it soon! Maybe I will finish it one day.
Chapter 1 A New Day Has Come
The Great Hall was filled with excited chatter and mischievous students that evening. Suddenly Dumbledore rose, cleared his throat and when he had everyone's attention he spoke:
"Dear students I am pleased to introduce Miss Zephyrus Lupin, our new Quidditch teacher and an exquisite Quidditch player herself"
"Miss Zephyrus Lupin, She's Remus's sister! He never told us his sister was a famous quidditch player. I need to talk to him later on." Protested Ron.
Suddenly a young woman with long brown hair entered the hall. She had a mischievous glint in her eyes just like Fred and George which clashed with her solemn countenance."
"Thank you Professor, good evening everyone" said replied the new teacher sitting between her brother, Remus and Professor Snape at the teacher's table.
Snape glared at her with the same hatred that he reserved for Harry.
"What's wrong with Snape? He has a talented beauty at his side and he doesn't pass a compliment. That man has to work on his people's skills."
And the next day…
"What's our first lesson""Double potions"
"Damn Bloody Brilliant! That's a fine way to start the day. Potions with the irresistible Professor Snape. How will I get through two whole hours? … I' d prefer
to swim in a shark infested sea than spend two whole bloody hours with Snape." replied Ron unaware of who was standing behind him.
"I couldn't have said it better myself" said a voice suddenly.
He turned to find a beaming Zephyrus staring down at them through clear green eyes.
"I see he hasn't changed from the marauder's time, he always was unbearable"
"You knew him and the… the marauder's?" stammered Harry.
"Well the marauders were my best friends excluding the fact that Remus is my brother, and Snape still hates me for what I made him do in the seventh year…Well I'd better be on my way. If you want to talk to me come over to Hagrid's cabin this Friday…"
She was suddenly cut off by Snape who snuck behind them unnoticed.
"Well, Well I see the famous Harry Potter has met our new celebrity Miss Lupin." Drawled Snape startling them with his sudden appearance.
"I see you haven't changed a bit. Gothic was out of fashion long ago Severussss" she replied in a snakeish manner and with a sneer matching his.
"Ten points from Gryffindor for wasting your time when you are supposed to be in class" he said this whilst glaring at Zaphyrus.
"TWENTY points TO Gryffindor for helping me find my way" with that she bowed low to Snape(making Harry and his friends chuckle) and continued on her way.
The rest of the day passed peacefully. Everyone soon got used to the school routine.
Friday was a half day so they had time to visit Hagrid. There they were greeted by the barks and slobber of the great boar hound, Fang. They were also delighted to see Zaphyrus sitting down on a chair drinking tea. When she saw them she smiled at the trio. They sat down and soon started chatting with her. She told them about the mischief she and the marauders got to in their time at Hogwarts, about her quidditch matches and her great adventures.
"Earlier on in the corridor you told us that you did something to Professor Snape. What was it?" asked Hermione.
"Well I don't know if I should… Oh what the h, once the marauders and I were playing quidditch when the Slytherin team, Snape being the seeker, came and started teasing us saying we were wimps and so on .I went up to him and challenged him by implying that I was better then all of them put together. We made a bet that if I win Snape would have to be our servant for a week."
"And what if the Slytherins won?"
"Well in that case the marauders would have to be the Slytherin's servants for a whole week and I'd have to accompany Snape to that year's ball and I'd have to kiss him"
"Ughhhhh that's disgusting" interrupted Ron
"Shhhhhhh!!!!" said Harry and Hermione together.
"Well…" continued Zaphyrus we played and I won. You should have seen Snape on his knees and the look on his face. I took a picture of him and made thousands of copies and stuck them all around the school. I got detention but it was worth it. We never let him live it down"
The trio erupted in cheers and claps. After some more conversation they all left Hagrid's and went back towards the school.
