The first year Slytherin and Gryffindors entered DADA classroom and took their seats. James and Sabrina sat next to each other in the center of the room. The class looked around the room. It was covered in books, posters of the effect of dark spells and ways to defend oneself.
"Sit down." said Professor Snape as he swept into the room slamming door behind him. He turned on his heels once he reached the front of the class. "I know many of you think Dense Against the Dark Arts isn't import because the Dark Lord is vanquished. I say other wise." said Professor Snape crossing his arms. "I can show you how the Imperious Curse can force you into darkness. How the Curcitaus Curse have you begging for death. But there are ways to defend yourself from these curses. This is what you'll be learning through your seven years here."
The students began to whisper among themselves. They were first years and hadn't learn anything about dark creatures.
"Silence!" hissed Professor Snape. He walked up to James. "Do you fill yourself important Potter since your father is the one whom slayer of the Dark Lord?"
"No sir. Those are my father's accomplishments not mine. I have nothing to do with any of it." said James his eyes not leaving his Professor's black eyes.
Severus smirked at his student. "Very good answer Mr. Potter. Take out your books and begin to read chapter one," and he turned to his desk while the students read silently.
James and Sabrina began to both take notes since they had both read their book more then once. Severus looked up and smirked at the young couple. Maybe his wife was correct about James Potter not being like his father or maybe his grandfather. He was seeing his grandmother, Lily instead. Professor Snape turned back to his lesson plans.
Severus rose from his chair and addressed his class. "You should have finished reading chapter one. I want a two rolls of parchments on the history of the dense. You're dismissed."
The class packed up their bags and left the room. The Gryffindors whispering about how crazy Professor Snape was, and him trying to scare them.
Sabrina narrowed her eyes at girl with red hair, freckles and slim figure. Sabrina walked up to her fellow student and asked, "What's your name?"
"Jenna Weasely. You must be Sabrina Snape."
"That's right and my father is not crazy. He's a very good and brave man." she hissed.
Jenna laughed at Sabrina. "You're no good father carries the dark mark. He was a follower of You-Know-Who. He's nothing but a filthy death eater."
Sabrina kicked her legs from under Jenna causing her to hit the stone floor. She had taken karate since was six. "How dare you insult my father! He wasn't a death eater!"
"Sabrina lets go. We don't want to be late for our next class." said James pulling her away from the Weasely. The couple made their way to Charms.
The rest of the day went by quickly ended. Sabrina and James didn't have potions until tomorrow after breakfast, and they were both looking forward to it. They had enjoyed DADA class.
"I've already made an enemy and it's only our first day." said James sitting down the couch in the Slytherin common room.
"Yes, Weaselys' can be very tricky." said a boy with blonde hair, pale skin and sliver blue eyes. He had a slender body. He was a second year. "I'm Alexander Malfoy but you can me Alex. My brother Draco told me many stories of the Weasely family and the Potter family." He looked James up and down, "Well since you're a snake you'll do."
Sabrina giggled. "So your brother is Draco Malfoy. My dad's godson."
"Yep." said Alex with a nod.
James smirked at the blonde. It would shock the pants off his father when he tell him that he was sorted into Slytherin and had made friends with a Snape and hopefully a Malfoy.
"I'm nothing like my father. He disgusts me at times. It would drive him crazy if I made friends with a Malfoy."
Alex stood in thought for a moment and a smirk slid across his face. He winked at Sabrina. He held out his hand to James. "Then I accept the friendship," and the boys shook hands.
Just then Professor Snape stepped through the portrait hole and raised at brow at Potter and Malfoy. That would drive Harry Potter crazy to know that his only son was friends with a Malfoy.
"Welcome first years to Slytherin for those that do not know me I am Professor Snape. I expect for you to act accordingly and show and respect towards the other professors. If I hear one bad thing of a bad conduct. I will punish as I a see fit.
The school functions and trips to Hogsmeade will be posted on the notice board along with school schedules for each grade. If you should need me at any point in time my chambers are down the corridor with a painting of a serpent and my office hours are posted on the notice board. I bid you all a good night." he told them and left the common room for his bedchambers.
"He doesn't seem too bad. My dad can't stand the man." said James.
Alex sat down next to Sabrina, who was sitting next to James. "Well my dad and Professor Snape were spies in the war against Voldemort."
"My dad was a spy? He was a death eater. You mean to tell me that Weaselete was right." said Sabrina with hurt in her voice.
Alex's brow frown and said, "Your father never told you about his act in the war." She shook her head. "Well, Professor Snape nearly died from a snake bit."
"He has a large scar on his neck. I asked him what it was from, but he wouldn't tell me." whispered Sabrina.
James squeezed her hand. "You should be honored that Professor Snape is your dad. One: He doesn't fawn it and use fame to get everything like mine. Just watch your back Sabrina. He'll do anything to get your dad."
"But why?" asked Sabrina wishing she knew what to think.
James shrugged his shoulders. He only knew it wouldn't be good if his dad got his hands on Sabrina's parents.
"Yea Don't worry. We, Slytherins take care of each other." said Alex and he saw James nod in agreement.
Hermione eased herself into the bed next to husband. Severus pulled the covers over his wife. He gently kissed her on the lips. He told her about James and Sabrina. Then what he saw when he entered the Slytherin common room. She could only raise a brow at the news.
"Oh Harry would have a heart attack if he knew." said Hermione. "Harry's living in the past. Things must have changed."
"We can only wait and see." said Severus and pulled his wife into his arms.
