Author's Note: I'm trying to update as regularly as possible but I do hope I am not going too fast. It is just there is a lot of story to get through and I want to be as detailed as possible.
Chapter 10: Professor Solis."Mr Lupin! How dare you arrive late to my class?", a tall, stern, grey haired man screamed with a faint European accent, his voice shaking the students.
"But Sir, Remus was not the only person late to your class!", a girl - with fierce brown eyes and long blonde hair - stood from her desk. She towered over the other students and trembled slightly as she glared the Professor down.
"Sit, Worthington, I did not ask for your opinion. Mr Lupin was late to my lesson; any other student's late arrival does not change this fact", he eyed the Hufflepuff with the greatest curiosity yet he remained unmoved by her uproar.
"Sir! I think that you are being dreadfully unfair!", She screamed in his face, almost driven to tears by the injustice of the situation.
"Worthington!", he bellowed, "I did not ask what you think. Sit down, or, I will make you".
"Please don't get yourself into trouble for me Diana... It's ok...", Remus whispered to her, but not without the Professor hearing.
"And NOBODY cares for what you have to say, Mr Lupin. Sit! NOW!", The dreadful man, revelling in his cruelty towards the petrified boy, smirked.
"Yes Sir", Remus sat, at the back of the class, hoping to hide from the senseless and horrifying man.
"Not there! THERE! NOW!", he pointed with a deeply scarred, severely mangled hand - that looked permanently incinerated - towards the front of the class at a lonely desk, with nobody occupying the entire row. Remus sat, visibly shaking, but, refusing to break eye contact, he glared at the Professor with disdain.
"My name is Professor Solis, and today we will be learning about one of the most savage beasts known to wizard-kind. These creatures are class five dangerous magical creatures and these filthy, half-breeds should be treated as such. Today, class, we will be learning about werewolves".
Author's Note: I wonder how the class will be? To have such a cruel man as a teacher is wrong and I am sure this class will be awful, poor Remus...
I remember, when I was younger, one of my teachers disliked me for 'what I was' (so to speak) and not the type of person I am.
So, they spent the entire year making an example of me in front of the class when I hadn't done anything. He'd make me face the wall when he was teaching and he'd make me sit alone, right next to his desk, he would deliberately ignore me and he'd punish me for things I hadn't done.
He really hated me and - when I think about it - it made me feel shy and ashamed of myself and made me hate school, and I think it ruined me a little bit as far as school goes.
Sorry, that got a bit deep and personal but that's what this chapter got me thinking of and we are going to see more of this 'outing' behaviour from Professor Solis throughout this story.
I hope you guys enjoyed this chapter, see you soon!
