Ministry of Magic
Umbridge usually tried(and failed miserably) to conceal her rage, but now she was livid
Livid with that attention seeking brat Potter
He had passed a few motions, one of those would make discrimination against the lesser breeds like werewolves and centaurs illegal
The other was what made her so livid, it made it that non ministry applicants for jobs in Hogwarts like teachers and groundskeeper have priority over ministry applicants, which meant that if anyone applied for the DADA teacher position, they'd get it over her
With Harry
Harry was thinking, he still head two houses that didn't have a Lady, those being Houses Peverell and Gryffindor
He was still thinking about who would he take as Lady Gryffindor as tho only real opinions were Ginny and Parvati, as Lavender was constantly regarded as the school slut and he didn't know Romilda to even think about marrying her, and then there was Hermione and he pretty much would rather go with Romilda than her
He thought for a few more minutes and then came to a decision
He summoned a Patronus and sent a message
But before that he had to get something in Snape's office
There, he summoned a few antidotes to hate potions and magic suppressing potions, he had a lot to do
Ginny Weasley was lost in thought, she thought about Harry and how he had to marry someone form Gryffindor and then her mind lingered to he thought of her brother Ron
Ron had chosen money over his friendship with Harry and she began fuming
He was a prat and didn't deserve anything he had
She was startled to hear a stag behind her and knew it was Harry's Patronus
It told her to go to Hagrids hut
As Ginny approached the jolly giant's home she saw Harry standing there and said
"Harry, need help with anything?"
His face was contemplating, he then gathered all of his courage and began
"Ginny, I've been thinking hard and came to a conclusion, you are one of my best friends and I know I can count on you to be there for me when I need you the most and, well, I believe we can be more then just best friends, and well, will you be my Lady Gryffindor?"
Over his speach, the youngest Weasley felt tears coming. They were, however, tears of happiness and she said
"Yes! Yes! Oh my god yes!" Harry went a few steps forward and their lips met in a searing kiss full of love
Harry had already explained the relation he was in with the other girls, which was one where they'd first get to know one another, before the wedding and they chose to take it slow
June 1st 1995
The Dursleys were a family in privet drive, they were a father, mother and son
They while not fond of Magic, didn't hate it, well, not by choice
Each 4 months, Dumbledore entered their house and cast an imperious curse and forced them to drink some potions
Vernon and Petunia drank hate potions keyed to Harry and Magic in general
Dudley drank the same as his parents but also drank a magic suppression potion
Because of these they hurt, locked and starved Harry, something they didn't actually like to do
September 1st 1995
The new first years had just entered the great hall and Harry directed his look to the staff table
Sirius was also there as he had been pardoned and became a transfiguration teacher
And the real Moody was there
There were a few people who weren't there the year prior, mainly Remus and Sirius as well as Slughorn and a few others
After the sorting Dumbledore began his yearly speach
"Welcome back all students from 2nd to 7th years, as wellcome he new 1st years, we recently had a major change in the teaching department
Also, the Herbology class is an elective from 5th year forward and therefore won't be obligatory
First, for every class there are now two teachers, one for 1st to 4th years like professors Snape, McGonnagall or Moody and another for 5th to 7th years like professors Black, Lupin or Slughorn
Along with that each house now has two heads and any points given or taken has to be agreed by both heads as many complained that some teachers (Snape) were unfair and biased
The heads of house are Professors Black and McGonnagall for Gryffindor, Flitwick and Lupin for Ravenclaw, Snape and Slughorn for Slytherin and Sprout and Babbling for Hufflepuff
Also, due to popular demand both Professor Binns and Trelawney were sacked and since there were no other candidates, Divination and History of Magic classes were removed from the curriculum
Due to small amount of electives, students now have to chose only one but can chose more if desired
The 5th year students are also allowed to change their electives and as usual the forbidden Forrest is well, as the name implies, forbidden as is the village of Hogmeade for 1st and 2nd year students or those who weren't allowed by their parents/guardians to go
Before any students begin worrying about professor Lupin's ... 'condition' he is being stocked with wolvesbane potions before the full moon cicles by both professors Snape and Slughorn and has been given a location to go to in order not to hurt anyone
Well, 5th, 6th and 7th years remember Professor Lupin, he will teach you Defense Against the Dark Arts. Now these are Professors Zatanna, the Runes' teacher, Kaldur'ahm or Kaldur, you Charms teacher, he is from Atlantis and you must treat him with respect, Slughorn, he was the potions master before Professor Snape took over his post, and now he is back to teach his subject. Professor West is your Arithmancy teacher and will also be a physical instructor. Care of magical creatures will bê taught by Professor Scamander. While Herbology which is an elective for 5th years or higher will be taken over by Professor Isley. Lastly the post for Transfigurations will be taken over by Professor Black who was cleared of all charges
Now, dig in"
After Dumbledore's speach, Harry turned to Neville and the two began talking
"Say Neville, which electives are you takin, I'm thing about going with Ancient Runes as I've heard it's quite remarkable, the only concern I have is the bookworm" as Harry said that he spat out the word bookworm, he now refused to say Ron's, Hermione's or Dumbledore's names and instead referred to them as Weasel, Bookworm and Old Coot(or old fart) respectively
Hell, even the thought or sight of them made the young Gryffindor livid
He then looked at his schedule

Harry looked at Neville's sheet and saw that the only difference in between their schedules was that Harry took Runes instead of Herbology
He then thought that Ron would have taken, most likely Herbology or Care of Magical Creatures believing it to be easier than Runes it Arithmancy and for one time he thanked the Weasel for his hate towards studying because that meant he had one class that he wouldn't see the read-head
After the feast the students went to their dorms and at the 5th year dorm Harry was stopped by Ronald
"Hey mate were have you been? Me and Hermione haven't seen you since last term"
"Oh, I forgot, after the third task, I was thinking and decided to expand my friendship circle"
At that Ron was trying to hide a scowl and said "Great mate, who are your new friends?"
"Oh you now, Daphne and Astoria Greengrass, Tracey Davis and Blaise Zabini, they are good people" Harry was laughing inwards just waiting to see Ron's reaction and it was priceless
At that statement Ron stopped trying to hide a scowl and just sneered and said " But they are Death Eates snakes!!! They are corrupting you"
That made Harry mad "and just because they are Slytherin they are Death Eaters, does that mean that every Gryffindor is a good person?" At that Ron nodded and made Harry furious "So you are saying that Pettigrew the reason I had to live at the Dursleys, a life of abuse worse than most house elfs were treated, the reason that my parents were killed and that my godfather is a fugitive, is a good person just because he was a Gryffindor, if for you everything is so black and white, maybe you should know that the hat said I could achieve greatness in Slytherin, but if even then you do not change, then I guess you are a brain dead idiot, and not my friend as I thought you were. Also, you should know that the Zabini's Greengrass' and Davis' were openly against the death eaters in the last war"
An
