I finally finished this chapter. I edited it a couple times and its way longer...
Disclamer i dont own anything but the plot...
Chapter 2
The Year Begins
"I can't believe this," whispered Ginny to Neville, who sat across from her, in anger as the 1st years came in, "there aren't as many first years as there should be,"
Neville and Ginny watched as one by one, the first years were sorted. After the sorting, there were only five first year Gryffindors and Ravenclaws, and only four new Hufflepuffs, the other 10 first years went to Slytherin.
"Now," started snape "before we begin our feast, I would like to say a speech." There was a short pause. "First, we have new staff members, Professor Carrow," the brother of the Carrows stood up, "is taking over the post of Defense Against the Dark Arts. Professor Carrow," the sister of the Carrows stood up, "is taking over Muggle Studies. And I, Professor Snape, am taking over as Headmaster this year at Hogwarts." There was small clapping from the Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, and Hufflepuff tables, but it was barely heard over the loud cheers and clapping from the Slytherin table. Snape smirked.
"There's nothing left to say, so let's begin the feast." Snape sat back down as the food appeared.
Neville started eating but Ginny didn't. Nearly Headless Nick sat beside her.
"Why aren't you eating?" Nick asked Ginny. "The food is the same as all the other years."
"It's not that," Ginny said, "It's weird, why didn't Snape say anything else?"
Neville shrugged. Ginny loaded her plate and started eating.
"Now that the feast is over, you may go to your Common Rooms," Snape said shortly. Everyone stood up and walked out of the Great Hall. Ginny and Neville sat in the Common Room for a couple hours.
"Leading the D.A this year is going to be harder than two years ago," said Neville.
"I know," Ginny replied, "but I have some ideas. I tell you and Luna tomorrow, I'm going to bed."
Ginny walked up to the girls' dormitory as Neville went up to the boys'.
The Next Morning
"I think we should start D.A meetings tomorrow," whispered Ginny, the next morning at breakfast.
"Why do we have to have it so early? Why don't we wait?" Neville whispered back.
"Because, I don't know how long half of these students will stay here. Think about it. We are probably starting the hardest and worst year at Hogwarts. We have to be prepared."
"We could just wait a couple more days,"
Ginny looked at Neville's schedule.
"We have break at three. I have Charms first. I'll ask Luna if she has break." Said Ginny, "I'll find you at lunch and tell you. If she has it with us, well meet in the Room of Requirements and plan when and what to do at the first meeting."
Neville nodded.
"I'll see you soon. I better go, my class starts in a couple minutes," Ginny said, standing up, she grabbed her bag and started walking out of the Great Hall.
"Bye." Neville watched Ginny leave and looked up at the teachers' table.
Snape was sitting in the middle of the table; the Carrows were sitting on either sides of him, the other professors were in whispered conversations, and not looking too happy. Neville sighed.
It's not Hogwarts anymore with all these Death Eaters. He thought.
Neville stood up and walked to the Gryffindor Common Room to grab his bag and head off to Herbology.
Ginny
Ginny walked out of the Great Hall and walked straight for Charms. She saw many Slytherins walking around and didn't like it one bit. She ignored all the taunts and teasing so she can talk to Luna. She stopped outside of the door to see, to her pleasure, Luna all by herself. She walked up to her friend.
"When do you have break?" Ginny asked her in a whisper.
"At three o-clock," Luna whispered back.
"Great, that's when Neville and I have break. We wanted to get together and have a meeting with just the three of us to talk about our first meeting."
Luna nodded.
"We'll meet in the Room of Requirements. I'll tell you later what to think of to get in."
Luna nodded. Many Gryffindors and Ravenclaws stopped outside the room. Some Slytherins stopped too; none of them were sixth years.
"Loony and Weasley, this must me our lucky day, isn't Blaise?" said Draco Malfoy, who walked up with Crabbe or Goyal and Blaise Zambini.
"This Charms class is for 6th years or are that stupid?" asked Ginny, glaring at the four older Slytherins.
Malfoy pulled out his wand quickly and shouted "CRUCIO" but Ginny was quick too and shouted, "STUPIFY".
Their spells collided in mid-air and rebounded, hitting the walls. Malfoy's spell made a deeper mark than Ginny's.
"The Cruciatus Curse is illegal," said Luna.
"I don't care Loony." Said Malfoy, as Crabbe and Goyal cackled. "We Slytherins have special privileges now with a new headmaster and an actual Defense Against the Dark Arts professor,"
"Professor McGonagall won't let you get these special privileges as long as she's still teaching here."
"I think we should find out what Professor Carrow and Headmaster Snape says," said Malfoy, taking a step toward Ginny. Ginny glared at him.
"As I said before Weasley, things will change. You'll find out by your first Defence against the Dark Arts class."
Malfoy, Crabbe, Goyal, and Blaise turned around and walked back up the corridor. Professor Flitwick let them into the classroom. Ginny and Luna sat together. They were getting a lecture about what they would learn this year.
"I really want to know what the change is this year?" asked Luna in a whisper. "Everything seems to be the same."
"I know the Carrows are taking over Defense against the Dark Arts and Muggle Studies and Snape is the new headmaster, but I don't know anything else."
They sat there in thought for a moment. They came up with nothing.
"I guess we'll find out soon enough." Said Ginny, as she pulled out her wand and started working on today's work.
Neville
Neville walked outside to the greenhouses. He wasn't expecting anyone to be there yet, but, to his amazement, Ernie and Hannah were there. He walked up to them.
"Hey Neville," said Hannah.
"Hey Neville," started Ernie, "We were wondering when the first meeting will be?"
"We don't know yet," said Neville, "Ginny, Luna, and I are planning it today."
Ernie and Hannah nodded. Neville wanted to continue talking about the D.A, but students started to come by so he didn't. There wasn't much talking when they started the lesson.
Ginny's right, we should start meetings right away.
Lunch
Ginny walked down the stairs to the Great Hall. She looked over down the Gryffindor table and found Neville at the table with no one around him. She walked over to him and sat beside him.
"Luna has break with us at three," she said in a whisper, "we'll meet in the Room of Requirements."
"What do we have to think of?"
"A meeting place where no one will find us or hear of our plans."
"Got it."
She got up quickly and looked at the Ravenclaw table, but Luna wasn't there. She walked out of the Great Hall and found Luna walking towards the door. She meets her half ways and pulled her into an empty classroom.
"What's wrong, Ginny?" asked Luna.
"We're meeting in the Room of Requirements at three," Ginny said, "Think of 'a meeting place where no one will find us or hear of our plans,' got it?"
Luna nodded. They left the room. Luna walked to the Ravenclaw table as Ginny walked back to the Gryffindor table and sat in front of Neville.
"I told Luna," she said shortly.
Neville didn't say anything, but was looking at the Professor's table. Ginny looked at them too. Snape and the Carrows were in deep conversation but the other teachers weren't. In fact they just looked as if they were pretending to eat.
"I wonder what they are talking about?" asked Neville.
"I don't know," replied Ginny, "but it can't be good."
"I have Muggle Studies next," said Neville, "I thought it would be interesting to take but now a Death Eater is teaching it, I don't know what it's going to be like."
"Good luck, I have Defense Against the Dark Arts next," said Ginny.
"Thanks, Good luck to you too," said Neville.
"Thanks," said Ginny, glancing at the teachers' table one last time. Ginny stood up, "I better go."
"I should too," said Neville, standing up and walking out of the Great Hall to the Gryffindor Common Room. Ginny grabbed her bag as Neville got his. They went there separate ways.
Defense Against the Dark Arts
Ginny walked into the Defense Against the Dark Arts room. There were tables of two. Terry Boot and Micheal Corner sat at a table in the back, while Anthony sat by himself at a table in front of the table Micheal and Terry sat at. Luna walked in to the room after Ginny.
"I didn't know you had class too," said Ginny.
"I made thanks to the D.A," said Luna.
"Lets take this table here," said Ginny, pointing to a table across from Micheal and Terry. Luna nodded and they sat down. Amycus Carrow was standing at his desk.
"I'm here to teach you Defense," sneered Amycus, "So let's get started."
Ginny and Luna sat and watched as the Death Eater showed them the unforgivable curses, like Mad-Eye, using spiders. He gave a very detailed description about the curses and how to use them.
"You have to mean it," said Amycus, "you have to want to cause pain to your victim."
Ginny was listening, even though she didn't want to. She glanced at Luna who was watching Amycus as well. Their first work was to write a whole foot of parchment about the curses, description and how to use them. Ginny and Luna were the first ones out of the room after class.
"There is a lot of changes this year," said Luna.
Ginny nodded, as they walked to Transfiguration.
Muggle Studies
"When did you decide to take this class, Neville?" asked Ernie, as they sat in the room together.
"Last year, but I thought it would be interesting," said Neville. Ernie opened his mouth to talk, but Alecto started talking.
"You may think this is Muggle Studies," she began, "but I don't give a damn about those filthy muggles."
"Then why are we here," asked a Ravenclaw student Neville didn't know.
"We are going to learn how much better wizards are to filthy muggles and mudbloods."
She talked about wizards taking over the muggle world and finally has control. She gave them an assignment as well.
"I want you to write a foot-and-a-half page long essay on muggles and wizards and how much better wizards are." She cackled and as everyone left the room for their next class. It was almost three so Neville headed for the Room of Requirements. He was beside the door and walked past the wall three times thinking 'I need a meeting place where no one will find us or hear of our plans'. After the third time, a door appeared. Neville walked in and sat down in an armchair that was there and looked around. There was a big gold lion emblazoned on scarlet tapestry hanging for Gryffindor, many bookshelves and books about spells and curses from what he could see, and a big table in the middle of the room with a couple chairs around it. He got up and walked around a little until the door opened to let Ginny and Luna in. Neville, Luna, and Ginny all took seats around the table.
"Let's get this meeting started," said Ginny, as she pulled out parchment, ink, and a quill.
I hope you liked the second chapter...I worked really hard.
