Previously Hermione's POV:

You all could send it at me this very instant and I doubt I get more than a nose bleed." She looked over at Harry and I. "Except for you two. You have been in the war seen things that you shouldn't have. You might be able to make me trip a bit." She smiled slightly. "I've been under the curse for about 15 minutes at one time. If you are under it for under that it doesn't numb you. Over 17 you go insane. There is a two minute window of exposure that makes you have a higher tolerance for the curse." Judging by the look on Harry's face he didn't know that either. "The last curse? Anyone?"

Harry just spoke. "Avada Kedavra."

"And you are?"

"Harry Jamison, Professor Sarah."

Harry's POV:

"Well Mr. Harry, you've seen the war. Describe the curse for me." I remembered the pretty and seemingly unfit teacher at the beginning of the class. This cold and calculating teacher in front of us now was definitely competent.

"You say Avada Kedavra and then a green crackling comes for you wand. The person dies almost immediately." I said in the most detached voice I could manage.

"Indeed Mr. Harry. All you see before you die is a flash of green." She paused as if remembering something. "Did you know the Imperious curse and Avada Kedavra were originally made for the painless slaughtering of animals? It was a Dark Lord and a Dark Lady in the 14th century that turned the curses on humans." Of course it was a Dark Lord and Lady. They had to have been twisted to use those on humans.

"The were a husband and wife and they traveled a lot. They were originally from Wales, as they traveled across Europe they drove deeper and deeper into the dark arts." Well duh. I want to say of course they had to be evil.

"They staged coups all over Europe and led the major reform of magic and the ministry. They used the curses to gain control and then dispose of all the political leaders." Of course then I'm sure they would have made themselves King and Queen of the world.

"With out them we'd all still be living in the dark ages. However, once the new governments were set up, setting the stage for our current society, they were charged by the ICW for murderous treason and the illegal practicing of dark then, back then you needed a permit. They were wiped from there rightful place in history. It was probably better this way or the entire continent would be under one giant empire monarchy. They were Harsa and Ventes or at least that's the crap the ministry feeds you." I have never had a teacher so openly hate the ministry.

Malfoy Sr. asked "This seems like it should be taught in history."

"I had friends that attended Hogwarts. I doubt Binns teaches anything outside of goblin rebellions." The whole class snickered. "This is actually relevant so listen up."

"Well anyway, the actual story, they did practice the dark arts, like most Purebloods of that time period, but as they were traveling across Europe they noticed nearly every country's ministry was utterly corrupt. They made the names Harsa and Ventes to remain anonymous. They did indeed use the curses to kill the corrupt officials because they wanted them to have a moderately painless death. As you know in most revolutions you kill the corrupt leader." It was true I remembered it from primary school.

"They could have used Wingardrum Leviosa and levitated them off a cliff. The could have used Difino and slowly hacked away at their necks. They could have used Aqumenti down their throats. That's what the leaders did for torture and execution." She was really getting worked up over it now.

"There were better know as Sarah and Steven Marintano. They made several medical break throughs in this time known as the Great War. They were set on finding away to heal their comrades in the mists of battle. The invented Medicio, the most used healing spell to this DAY!" That didn't sound very dark.

"Please note the ministry rules this as a conspiracy theory all thought Sarah and Steven died the same day as 'The Darkest Couple in History' and really rearrange Harsa and Ventes. Your get Sarah and Steven. I also happen to own Sarah's journal, I was named after her in fact, and know it's the truth, but believe what you want." Censorship. Not cool. I mean having one main newspaper is bad enough.

"What I'm trying to say it's the intentions that make a curse dark. Did you know a Rictasempra filled with power and hatred has the same effect as Crucio? Try levitating a bolder on to someone. You learn how to kill in your first year at Hogwarts. Think about that. For homework I want a list of spells you've learned and how you can kill or harm people with them and how to do it or anything that might be useful for a battle or duel. Try any harmful spells on anyone and you'll be expelled." The bell rang just after she said her last word.

"Mr. Harry, Ms. Hermione, please stay after class for a moment." I should have seen this coming. I let out a sigh as Hermione and I walked to her desk.

"Yes Professor Sarah?" Hermione asked politely.

"I'm very observant and I read through all my students files. You miraculously survived through this war. I'm sure you have skills, hell I can tell by the way you carry yourselves, but remember a stunning spell only gets you so far. Being on the light side is tough, I know personally, but if you wish you two are the first to be invited to my defense club."

Hermione looked nearly horrified, "Professor Sarah all clubs have to be open to the entire school."

"It is, but there is a separate section for those I deem good enough to enter. You don't want to be relearning Protego with a bunch of incompetent fools do you?"

Hermione is going to kill me, but "No not really I for one want to do this." I'm good, but I might learn something.

Hermione sighed "Fine count me in too."

"I'm warning you now what I'll put you through will be rigorous, no one under 5th year is allowed to join" she looked at me clearly. "All houses will be there, including Slytherins. Don't look at me like that Mr. Harry I saw you glare at Mr. Snape." Hermione tried to hide her laughter. "He seems like he might be a good candidate for the club. Now then off to transfiguration with you both." She shooed us out of her room.

"She is by far the strangest teacher we've ever had." I said to Hermione.

"Agreed. I do think we'll learn a lot. Her story was absolutely fascinating." She babbled about how she's heard of the 'Darkest Couple' and the Marintanos and that she never made the connection. She's so cute when she gets like this. Cute where did that come from?

"Hey what did Sarah want to talk to you about?" James asked when we finally reached class.

"She's thinking of starting a dueling club and asked us what we thought of it." I said as a half truth. We apparently have transfiguration with the Ravenclaws. They have a rather nice common room, with the statue of Ravenclaw and- the diadem is at Hogwarts. "Hermione the diadem." I hissed under my breath. That over glorified tiara is a Horcrux; one we can easily get to. That was the easiest to find after we saw it.

She took a sharp intake of breath and mouthed 'later' just as McGonagall walked in the door. "This is the start to your NEWT transfiguration class..." It didn't really change much from the speech we got in our time line. Hermione was still listing with rapt attention though. Transfiguration has always been on of her favorite classes.

Hermione's POV:

If there is one teach in this school who I had to pick as a role model it would be Professor McGanagall. She came with my Hogwarts letter and showed me around Diagon Alley. She is a fair, respected, and intelligent teacher. Exactly what I want to be when I'm older. I look over at Harry, his eyes are slightly glazed over. I roll my eyes, typical. I nudge him in the ribs. He grins back at me sheepishly. It's that adorable grin of his again. What a girl is allowed to appreciate her friend is good looking. When he smiles, his eyes light up and when he's angry they get really dark, he's so-. I cut off my inner monologue. Transfiguration is important.

We walked to lunch, the Marauders in front of us and the girls behind us. I whispered to Harry, "What should we do?"

"Neaksay after urfewcay."

"Oh alright you have everything?" I was referring to his invisibility cloak.

"Yep." He said with a smile. He was looking directly at Sirius and James when he said, "We're going to win."

"Yea we are and it's going to be a lot of fun doing it." I said back.

James' POV:

We obvioulsly over heard Harry and Hermione talking, but neaksay and urfewcay? What the hell? They were sitting down a few seats away with Lily and her friends. Sirius kept mutter "Neaksay, urfewcay" or "Urfewcay, neaksay."

It was really getting on my nerves. I tried to talk to Remus. "What do you think of the new kids?"

"They're both very strange characters, I know they're war refugees, but the seem like older than they should be, like a lot older." That was his critical analysis. "They still seem like good people and their scent is so familiar, Harry's in particular. He smells a lot like you actually."

"Is that a good thing or a bad thing?" I don't actually know what to make of that comment.

"I think it's a good thing, he also smells a little like Sirius and, surprisingly, Lily." Remus is the only one of us Lily can tolerate for extended periods of time. Their actually friends. I bother Remus about it all the time.

"Sneak after curfew." Sirius said randomly elated. "They're sneaking out after curfew. We must follow for that is our code of the Marauders." This should be interesting. We looked at each other grinning madly.

That's all for now. I hope you enjoyed it. So umm please review it's the cool thing to do :D and well the question is what was your favorite subject/s in school. I loved advertising, photo, and psychology. Thanks for reading you guys rock.
