Awaken me from my day Dream
Chapter: 10
Title: The Ministry at it's Finest.
Disclaimer: Don't own anything but the plot.
The feminine voice reverberated around the room, closely followed by the murmuring and shuffling that came from confused students.
Naruto lifted his head from his hand in order to focus his eyes questioningly on the eldest Uchiha, who was nonchalantly leaning against the teacher's desk, allowing only his clenched hands to let on that he detested the strange woman who had just entered with the intent of abducting his class.
Defense Against the Dark Arts: A Return to Basic Principal.
Printed itself on the portable blackboard though the Kyuubi container was sure that she hadn't written anything on it yet and it disturbed him slightly. As their previous teachers had done, Umbrige started talking about previous years and OWLS, only with a bit of "The Ministry of Magic is good and here to help!" on the side of her speech. It also ended with a "Copy these Course Aims down!", and a groan from the reluctant class.
After said notes were scribbled down on a piece of borrowed parchment, the mischievous ANBU decided that it was about time to make himself known to the pink obsessed woman of his nightmares.
"Professor!" his girly voice chimed out a little higher than he intended it to be.
"We raise our hand in this class, Mrs..."
"Cawrter." He supplied helpfully.
"Mrs. Cawrter. And so I demand that you do so."
The transformed boy did as he was told and raised his hand with the expectation of being called upon immediately, an expectation that was shot down within seconds of being blatantly ignored by the toad-like woman.
"Now that everyone has-"
"I believe Mrs. Cawrter is trying to say something." Itachi's even voice growled out unexpectedly, making any female's from either house swoon at the sound of his rough voice.
"Thank you Itachi, but I am very capable of handling this class, and any other, on my own."
"Then I suggest you prove this by doing your job properly and at least hearing out anything your students have to say to you." He replied instantly with an uninterested facade coupled with rising anger behind it.
The witch professor attempted to hold her own mask up as she once again thanked Itachi for his input before turning around and calling upon Naruto.
"Isn't Itachi supposed to be teaching this class? I mean, that is what Professor Dumbledore said at the opening ceremony, did he not?"
The corners of her lips twitched as the Ministry-issued woman tried to stay on top of the quickly escaping situation.
A ripple of whispers sounded throughout the room, as messages from the young magic wielders were frantically told to one another. More hands were raised from this, while some people opted to throw out their questions wildly and anonymously, just incase the woman found their question inappropriate by Ministry standards.
"Actually, Itachi was not Ministry approved and is actually supposed to have already left Hogwarts premises, but since Dumbledore refused to make him leave, he will be with us for the remainder of the year. He will simply be helping not to teach the students taking Defense against the Dark Arts. Now, read the first chapter if you please." The pink, toad-like woman explained in her honey-sweet voice, ceasing anymore questions before returning to the desk Itachi was using and giving said male a pointed look.
Only Naruto could see that behind Itachi's mask he was fuming, anyone would be. One more word out of Umbrige's mouth and the blonde leader was sure she would be spending the rest of the year in the hospital wing. That is if the Uchiha went easy on her. Sadly, this could not happen, much to the disappointment of more than one person in the room. If it did, then their mission would be put in jeopardy, which was something that could not, at all costs, happen, no matter how tempting.
The mission leader checked the space before his own pink haired subordinate and noted the empty space in front of her as well. Perfect. His second in commands eyes were watching his. Watching and waiting. Naruto nodded, his long hair tickling the back of his neck. Itachi moved from his position on the desk, with his eyes still on his captain's, as he started pacing up and down the isles, seemingly checking the page numbers of all the students. When the Uchiha came to their table, the jinchuuriki tapped on his desk twice, indicating the lack of clutter.
"Where are your textbooks?" The sharingan wielder asked in his deep voice.
"Well, Mr. Uchiha, uh…sir…um…" Sakura started, obviously not expecting that question from a person who knew exactly why she didn't have her supplies yet.
"We were running late at lunch and forgot our books in our dorms." Itachi's eyes shifted from the real female to the faux one as he was told the fabricated story. He nodded at his leader's girl-like face before striding towards the front of the room once again.
"See me after class than you two. I shall be needing to speak with the both of you; the fact that today is the first day of classes is no reason to forget anything."
"Isn't this my class, Itachi?" The other professor's falsely sweet voice inquired.
"If I am to help you teach I, also, need authority over the students." came the long haired man's simple reply before he leaned back on the wooden desk where he perched for the rest of the class, looking like a lion waiting for the perfect time to strike at his prey. Sharingan whirled behind obsidian irises as he watched the Ministry woman pace the front of the room and teach the class in a "safe" environment. He just couldn't help but think that to this woman; even her bed was considered a threat.
End Chapter.
