Hi guys!

As usual none of this belongs to me I am simply playing with them while I am on my coffee break! No money will be made from this work if it was my name would be J K Rowling not opera777.

He was done.

Fried actually was a better term for it.

He wanted a couple hours alone where no one and he meant no one could find him.

He walked to the corridor where the room of requiement was. The flask of ogdens best was sitting heavily in his pocket. The door revealed itself and he walked inside. Well, Well, what have we here. He looked across the room of requirement at Dumbledores' Army. He wanted to laugh it looked like the entire lot of them had shat themselves at the same time.

"Right. Let s see you have learned shall we. Defend yourselves." He said whipping out his wand and casting jinxes and minor hex s to all the corners of the room. They replied in kind he protected himself easy enough. Some even came straight forward and took up his challenge. After a good 10 minutes he called to the lot of them.

"Enough." He said slowly putting his wand away. "Longbottom, don t close your eyes when you cast. Finnegan don't raise your wand so high you leave yourself vulnerable. Patil's stick together your better than you are separated. Weasley twins that goes for you as well. Lovegood continue as you are. Miss Granger and Miss Weasley Brilliant. The rest of you have work to do. Read Basic Dark Arts Defense pages 256-328; I'm sure Miss granger knows the location of that volume. I want you to be paying particular attention to the related appendices. As well as the exercise written in the margin on page 577."

He turned and walked out of the room.

Not a sound could be heard as everyone stared in disbelief.

"Did he just. . . "

"Give us homework?" Ron scowled.

"Help us you twit." Fred and George said smacking him on the back of the head.

"Ginny? Hermione?" Harry said waving his hand in front of their eyes.

"He. . . " Ginny said quietly.

". . . Told us we were brilliant." Hermione finished.

The professor sat in a pool of moonlight on the astronomy tower.

"What the fuck was I thinking?"
