Chapter 9: Owl Post, Flying Lessons And Seeker Practice

"Alright disarming cubs, keep it going." Remus called out and we nodded, before I ducked a sudden blast and then said it. "Expelliarmus!" I called out and Zach got thrown into the table. "Freeze!" Dumbledore shouted out and we all froze up at that. "Alright young man, care to explain that reaction?" Severus said sternly and he looked at him defiantly. "And if this is why you want to make him look bad, you're digging a very deep hole." Remus said sternly to him then.

"I don't see why you're all spending so much time on him right now, rather then putting us into the way it would have been, if he stay ignorant till school started." he snapped at him and they nodded. "It's because in order to prepare for an upcoming war, we start training early young man, for ten years he was sheltered. And now it's time to come home and be who he was meant to become now." Dumbledore said sternly and he swallowed hard at his remark then.

"Yes he's the Boy Who Lived, but he wants to be seen as who he was supposed to be, the way we would have known him, if Lilly and James were alive. And right now, live up to his parents reputations, be seen as more then the savior of our world, instead be seen as the star member of his family. Best at defense, the youngest seeker of the century and most of all take his father's place at my side, as my star pupil right now, young man." Dumbledore said to him at that.

"I'll handle this, Professor you take over, come with me, Smith." Severus said sternly and Zach nodded shaking as he followed him out the door then as I checked my shoulder. "Not that I blame him for that jealousy, but that's no excuse to attack someone with their backs turned." I said and Mione nodded. "Well we got two loaded with jealousy, him and Percy, Oliver said that he's giving him attitude." she said and Dumbledore nodded to us at that news then gently.

"Alright class is over for now, and we can pick it up on Wednesday students, you spend this time studying your knowledge on the defensive spells used so far." Remus said and we nodded to him as he sat down and I wrote down the ones we used so far in class then, and then put what kinds of defensive spells they were down, before the bell sounded and we packed up and headed for our third class then gently at that as we separated then for our third class then.

As after our free period now, we then headed for lunch after that, as we settled and were doing our homework in the classes done so far then gently here, as Seamus tried it again then. "Eye of rabbit, harp string hum, turn this water into rum." he said, swinging his wand at it, and then checked the goblet, before trying again. "Eye of rabbit, harp string hum..." he said again, and Draco looked at us at that response as he said it for himself, Millie and Daphne then.

"What's Seamus trying to do to that glass of water?" he asked us and he said it with a bemused smile then. "Turn it to rum. Actually managed a weak tea yesterday! Before..." he said and before we heard an explosion and I closed my eyes. "Before the water exploded in his face." Mione said to finish that and we and Neville, Draco and the girls all started laughing, as we heard a chirping. "Ahh, mail's here!" he said and we all looked up in delight at that remark.

As we all several had things arriving then as I saw a set of letter in a pile put into a tube and I knew he was sending me a message, as I saw I had 4. And from the Dursleys, one from Sirius, another from Ginny and a fifth from Charlie and Bill and I smiled as I opened up the first and knew my girlfriend's handwriting. And immediately then gently as I read the letter then and smiled happily then finally then as I saw the same smile of happiness in Dumbledore's eyes then.

Knowing he was happy I was so happy then, before I saw the envelop and the newspaper and nodded. "Ron, Mione, Neville, someone had broken into Gringotts, listen to this, 'Believed to be the work of dark wizards or witches unknown, the Gringotts Goblins acknowledging the breech can insist nothing. Now, was taken, the vault in question, number 713, had been emptied earlier that very same day.'." I read out and we exchanged looks.

"Strange, you went there to check on it, and then we yanked it, it's been close to a month so why would we have another breach attempt?" Ron said and I nodded. "He didn't realize we swapped pouches and possibly thinks he got the wrong vault as said pouch was a transfigured piece of metal made to look like the stone." I said and she nodded. "Yeah me too right now, but we know what we're doing, after repeated testing." she said and he nodded in agreement.

Checking out the messages on the others I saw the letters that the Dursleys and Pierre and his parents sent me, and smiled then gently as I knew it worked and she'd never been this happy to change finally as they were relaxed. "Well what do you know, Malcolm, Dennis and Gordon got sent to another school here, and Pierre and Dudley are at Smeltings right now." I said and she read the letter over my shoulder and nodded in relief as she answered me at that news.

"Well these guys need to change, before they get in trouble with the police, besides he's happy he's got a surrogate sister now, me being said." she said and I nodded to that remark. "Yeah, and you're my best friend, and though I love you, I don't love you like that, we're best friends, and you're my sister, and that's all there is between us." I said and she nodded. "Yeah, but we're 13, near 14 trapped in our 11 year old bodies." she said and I nodded to her gently at that.

"Yeah no kidding, but we make the best of the new memories now finally here." I said and she smiled as she, Neville, Ron and I exchanged grins then. "Hey guys we got Music Class today." I said and they nodded to me. "Well that's Professor Flitwick's catch then, good thing we're not on the choir." Draco said to me and I nodded laughing at that. "Yeah, but we're athletes here Drac', but we're not going head to head, you're as good as me." I said and he nodded to that.

"Well I was waiting for this, father just disowned me for going against everything he believes in." he said as he looked at the letter in his hand then. "No big deal, you're happier now, now that you got real friends." Mione said and he nodded as she patted his shoulder and he smiled at her. "You realize how many configurations we can make out of the five of us here?" he asked and she nodded. "Yeah we got 4 now, but friends for life now." she said and he nodded then.

"Hey Daph, what do you think of being a Gryffindor now?" I asked and she smiled. "It's nice, we're a pride and we have each other's backs now." she said and he, Tracy, and Mille nodded in agreement to that. "I think this was to put you in a different set of shoes here right now, as you see your former lives from our perspective now, by that I mean walk a mile in our shoes, as you see yourselves from our perspective now." Mione said to her and she nodded to her gently.

"Nice touch in the Halloween song here, with us being witches and wizards, but listen to this." I said as we hear the choir singing the song then gently at that. "Double, double toil and trouble, Fire burn, and cauldron bubble, Double, double toil and trouble... Something wicked this way comes. Eye of newt, and toe of frog, Wool of bat, and tongue of dog, Adder's fork, and blind-worm's sting, Lizard's leg, and owlet's wing."

"Double, double toil and trouble, Fire burn, and cauldron bubble, Double, double toil and trouble, Something wicked this way comes..., In the cauldron boil and bake, Fillet of a fenny snake, Scale of dragon, tooth of wolf, Witches' mummy, maw and gulf..., Double, double toil and trouble, Fire burn, and cauldron bubble, Double, double toil and trouble, Fire burn, and cauldron bubble..., Double, double toil and trouble."

"Fire burn, and cauldron bubble..., Something wicked this way comes." they sang out and we clapped. "Nice touch guys, that was great." I said and they smiled at the praise. "I could consider this song, about being in the potions lab and we're working on one for whatever we got coming up that year." Mione said and Severus, who arrived in time to heard that, nodded. "Some of those ingredients are for the wolfbane's potion." he said to her and she nodded.

"Then this was a potion to suppress Mooney, before he got let loose, or just Greyback right now." I said and he nodded to me. "Mooney?" Draco repeated and I nodded. "That's the name of Remus's wolf." Severus said and he nodded. "Problem is that he never let his wolf side take total hold here right now, so he looks like a wolf that's been drowned slightly." I said and Remus nodded with a bemused smile. "At least I'm safe." he said and I nodded to that remark then.

"Yeah you're safe, and I've never been happier to have you back in my life now, Uncle Remus." I said and he smiled at that remark. "I'm taking dad's advice, so I won't need this, once I know the lay-out of the entire school later on here, so you you keep this till the school year ends." I said and they nodded. "Back in the rightful hands of the creators, little brother?" Fred asked and I nodded as they looked at Remus smiling and I shook my head smiling as I said to him then.

"Perfectly understandable here in this right now, you need it as you knew the entire layout." I said and he nodded to me then. "You and Severus better hang on to the map for now, as we know it's safer in your hands though." I said and he nodded as I passed the map to them and Remus put it in his pocket. "I get why and to repeat what I would have said if we never arrested Peter, but you realize that this map, in his hands is a map to you?" he said and I nodded.

"I do and it's in safe hands now, but with 'him' here and next year Lockhart, I'm not taking any chances and heading it off, before we have problems, but was Greyback here in school, before he got turned?" I asked and Minerva nodded as she came in. "Yes, he was in my year, but he's the most savage wolf alive, and gives most other wolves a bad name for the level of savagery he does to people." she said and I nodded. "You, Remus?" I asked and he nodded sternly then.

"The flea bitten mongrel is menace to society, but attack a child it's going to get you executed if these keeps up." Andy said and I nodded. "Mooney have you ever attacked anyone, Papa?" I asked and we heard a gentle remark come out of Remus at that. 'That's a big negative cub, I never attacked anyone, though Wormtail nearly caused it to happen, when I was in the final stages of my transformation.' he said and we all nodded to the remark.

"I didn't think you could talk to the inner wolf, before they switch positions." Dean said in amazement to that. "Not many can, but as he's my cub, only he can get through to Mooney, so to Mooney, cub asks a question, he answers him, but the alpha chose a safer way for me to handle this. As I'm here permanently I can hold a steady job, and the other wolves like me get a better chance here as result." he said and they nodded to then news then gently at that remark.

"Papa wolf." I said to the rest of the muggle-borns and they all nodded. "He's your father's other best friend next to Sirius?" one of them called out to me and I nodded. "Yeah just the trio, so PMP, translated that stands for Padfoot, Mooney and Prongs, the trio are the creators of the map that revealed the truth to you guys last semester." I said and they all nodded. "I never cared what he was I love him either way, so favorite uncle." I said and Remus looked down gently.

"Love you too cub." he said and I nodded. "What's the mongrel look like?" I asked and she put a picture of Greyback on the table and I looked at the feral gaze in his eyes and nodded. "I've seen some horror movies over the years, but he looks like the version that was stationed here in England and Scotland, up in the East Proctor, after he got attacked and bit by said werewolf." I said and they nodded. "That's what they really look like." Kingsley said to me gently at that.

"That was no werewolf, it looked like a mutated wolverine." Mione said and I nodded. "A wolverine the size of grown man, come on, that's not possible." Penny said as she looked over my shoulder. "As a normal wolf, if I have my potion, I look like a bigger version to a Siberian Huskie, when not, I look like that monstrosity." he said to her and she nodded. "Nice so we know what you look like, but him, he looks like a mutated Wolverine." Dean said to that news then.

"He looks no older then Professors McGonagall and Sprout." I said and he nodded. "He is." she said and I crossed my arms. "So dad's age group was born in 1960, and he was an adult attacking a child, alright you furball, touch my friends, I'll you myself." I said sternly and they nodded. "If I thought it's next to impossible to kill a Sith, trying killing a fluffball like this before he reaches the final stages." Mione said and I nodded. "Tell me about it." I said to her at that.

"And like dad, I never cared what you are, but in dad's words, your heart is where you truly live, the person you truly are is a good man, as to that now. It's there is no need to be disgusted with yourself Papa, I love you either way, wolf or human, love you in either form." I said and he smiled gently at that as Dumbledore hid a smile. "I love you too cub." he said and as I gave him a hug and Sirius smiled at that as that was his words in my voice now finally then.

"Can a wolf in total control focus on friend and foe?" I asked and Remus nodded. "If we have that potion then yes, but for the ones that don't, they're like our counterpart in the movie, as it institutes a total black out in memories. And he relishes said black out, as a reason to commit murder or worse change a cub, when they're still pre-cub." he said and we nodded. "By that you mean Ginny or younger?" Ron asked him and he nodded to him and we nodded to the news.

"Why does he look like he's covered in wolf fur, though he's in human form?" Dean asked and she shook her head. "It's because he's decided to not shave at all giving him a half human/half wolf appearance, you remember the movie Busey made, the novella?" I asked and he nodded. "Is that what that set of stories were, a novella, with the man looking like he's close to death, not the first one, that was a corpse, the second?" Remus asked and I nodded to him gently.

"Yeah the man that wrote up that series in short stories is a well known scary story writer, but he's got it way too close to the truth, they never knew what the hades said boggart really looked like till the closest they could come to was a demonic spider, said was pregnant, and in killing him for real as adults now. They lost two members of their group, one to suicide, the second was do the fight when they were no older then the Tonks's were." I said and he nodded to me.

"Well in this case they got it practically at the truth, but it's not the novella you just mentioned, he's more like the description in said muggle doctor now. On that movie, in such a deranged state when changed here, without our potion, he could hurt either himself or other people, that's this altogether." he said and we nodded. "I see why dad and Severus nearly panicked then if you were about to change into Mooney, as without the potion in your system right now."

"It's you have no clue who we are, and you're in that state you're likely to hurt us or yourself, and dad had to prevent you from attacking us by accident." I said and he nodded and she sighed in relief we got the real truth. "That's the reason exactly, if it reached all the way to the night before school let out, and I forgot to bring the potion with me, when I went to check on this, then yeah I'd be worried out of my mind that you risked going in out there now."

"When he was close to changing and I'm not an animagus, so I can get him away from you, but Sirius could right now." Severus said and Sirius nodded in stern agreement to that remark as they and Remus exchanged looks at that. "Well that's not likely to happen twice, I'm taking that potion every night, before the attack hits, so he tries to escape a second time when we got him cornered, he's getting the kiss, I've been working here in the school for 3 years."

"So he knows the layout, just as easily as Sirius and I do, that Argus, and we can lock up every spot to make it next to impossible to get in or get out." remus said and we nodded as Mione said it to Dean to explain it gently at that. "That's him altogether, and in the narrator's words, instead of during a full moon, maybe he's like this all the time, only as the moon get fuller." she said and I finished that remark then, as we and Ron exchanged irritated looks at this.

"The guy gets wolfier." I said and Remus nodded to that remark. "That furball in the illustrations of that book, is what he looks like in wolf form actually." Remus said to me and I nodded. "I never read the book, but I watched the first 30 minutes of the movie, after two kills, but the man she was dating was a deadbeat dad, after getting her pregnant, he backed out, leaving her to raise baby herself." I said and he nodded sternly at that news then as she said it.

"Nice persona cubs, and you're right, to make this easier for your counterparts to understand, go with the movies, for us it's muggle version to explain this, for you it's magical." she said to me and Mione at that remark. "And that's good for a 13 year old, but we're leaving out the profanity, till you're old enough to hear this stuff." Sirius said to that and I nodded. "My counterpart was 13, near 14 when he made that movie." Penny said to him and he nodded gently.

"Well I can conclude the man playing the humanoid form to that demonic spider as that of a boggart then." I said to her and she nodded. "Nice and he's so well known, that when he really gets going it's enough to scare anyone out of their wits." Mione said to her in response and I nodded in agreement. "Though he's good at hamming it up right now, then again this was why he's such a great actor." I said to her and she nodded to that remark as we exchanged looks.

"At that level, the further we go into a new decade, they choose actors that match said age level for said character." Dean said in response and I nodded. "Take us for instance, our counterparts are practically bang on here." Mione said and I nodded. "Yes and no kidding, but that's why we consider you cubs, though teenagers and older, we never stop seeing you as our little cubs." Andy said and we nodded to that remark then gently at that remark then.

"Issues in being a parent, to us, we maybe adults now, but to you and to our grandparents we're still your cubs." I said and she nodded. "And in my case that's literal, you are my cub." Remus said to me and I smiled at him. "Love you too Papa Wolf." I said and he smiled then gently at the remark. "One heck of a summer, just getting back and already, you're now acting like a normal cub in our world again." Sirius said to me and I nodded smiling then gently at that.

"I don't get it, what's the deal with this Greyback character?" Zach asked and I crossed my arms. "Don't you know anything Zach, why did Umbridge come here this morning, it's because of Greyback, and she thinks my uncle is like him, but no, there is no chance of that right now. But Greyback, from the rumors here, now, is the most savage werewolf in our world, he's notorious for attacking children." I said and he paled and Remus nodded as he said it sternly.

"Young man, listen to me right now, Fenrir Greyback is, perhaps, the most savage werewolf alive today, he regards it as his mission in life to bite. And I mean bite and to contaminate as many people as possible, he wants to create enough were wolves to overcome the wizards, but he's dangerous enough now. And as a normal werewolf, but before you freak out when I say this next remark, in the alias, but imagine if he was in the service of Riddle himself now."

"I mean it, think on that for a few minutes." he said and they all paled in fear and he nodded. "Exactly, Voldemort wouldn't care of what he is, so long as he use him to spread further fear into the lives of good witches and wizards, he's going to use him and has promised him prey in return for his services. Greyback specializes in children... Bite them young, he says, and raise them away from their parents, raise them to hate normal wizards." he said and they nodded then.

"Hedwig." I said and she gave me a hoot. "Take this message back to the ministry, I'm making a donation to the potions company that makes the potion for Remus, It's on the house for the entirety of the time I'm in school. On word of the Ancient and Noble House Of Potter, as the new head of house Potter, I am offering a hand in friendship to all wolves now, but Greyback now, he's a menace I don't want near us or our peers right now, and if it takes it now."

"Before he transforms to arrest him and I will, but I want him behind bars, he's the first to go in Riddle's new army." I said and she gave a second hoot and I gave her the letter. "Be careful girl, come back to me now safely." I said and she rubbed my cheek with her head in response. "Yeah, I love you too." I said to her then and she took off at that as she flew to London. "Now or in that time-line, she is my familiar and I love her." I said and they smiled gently at that.

"Nice thinking, at least that calms things down." Andy said smiling gently at that remark. "We got to get him out of the way, to make a new bond created with the wolves, right now." I said and the order all nodded in agreement smiling gently. "There were only two groups we need to make it, with 4 years worth of preparations, before we got him back on the loose, but your counterparts and Hagrid's mother's tribe in the mountains." I said and they all nodded gently.

"And that's just what I want to hear from you, but there are 10 known wolves in the society, Greyback is a menace to us as normal wizards here now. It's because of him, us wolves can't get a job till you take care of that for me, as I have 2 years as the new history of magic teacher, before she takes over that. And then I return to that position, before Sirius comes here right now for the tournament." Remus said to me and I nodded as I looked between him and Andy.

"Aw crud I missed one here, the dementors." I said and they froze up. "So we got to get those things out of control of Azkaban, send an envoy to the wolves, and another to the Giants in Hagrid's mother's tribe, but that's all three bases here that need to be covered." I said and Dumbledore nodded. "Indeed right now, but we had an escape once, who's not to say we won't have another and the things don't show forgiveness, and can't distinguish their target to a non."

"So indeed, I agree with you right now, so 1) is the wolves, 2) is we get get those things out of control of Azkaban and finally, we send a convoy, a messenger. Now to see your mother's tribe, Hagrid, but we got in total, four years worth of work to accomplish leading into his possible return." he said and we nodded. "As leader of the Junior Order, I'm making it my priority, we're all ready by the time we have them attempting interference." I said and he nodded to me then.

"You the junior order, us the senior order, we're doing what we can to protect you and you to your own peers, so we don't take chances here now in truth. And on your safety, no matter how many times someone wants you to get reckless, you won't do it." he said and I nodded to that. "Yeah and I've changed here, but life changed for the better." I said and he nodded. "Yes and we've never so proud of you right now." Minerva said to me gently and I smiled at her.

"Yeah, but I'm offering a hand in friendship here, but the werewolves and the giants, are two of the ones we need to get on our side, before all hades break loose." I said to them and she nodded in agreement. "Good point, and this way, you can be normal at the moment, but this is why you're such a good leader honey, you see the good. The good in everyone even when others can't see it themselves here." Andy said and I nodded as she ran her hand through my hair.

"This is what I missed most, being around my parents friends and being normal, you're the mother I wanted in truth, though Aunt Petunia and I fixed it. I miss this contact with my mother." I said and she nodded as she looked into my eyes and pressed her forehead to mine, and I buried my head into her shoulder. "I know I miss her too, but you're not alone anymore baby, going to be okay." she said and I nodded softly as I relaxed and Mione and Ron smiled softly then.

"Just got a message back from Dora, she sent this to you." Mad-eye added and he passed me a letter at that as I saw us and Ron, Draco, Mione, the others as a single group. "Hey baby brother, how is your first week shaping out, I'm doing fine in training right now, but it's a bit nuts since the year started. I spoke to Charlie, and he's busy in training at the Romanian Dragon compound, with everyone in our class scattered all over."

"We're ready for you to call us back when you're ready, just send the word and we come home immediately, though good here. It's my counterpart, she's like the wise guy in your class no matter what happens he can't stop making things explode. And it results in me dropping things here, hopefully we can get it under control before we come home, but otherwise, it's going fine, write back soon guys, I love you."

"Your sister and cousin, Dora." the message read out to us and we all smiled. "That bad Professor?" I asked and he nodded with a chuckle. "Worse, she's my top student right now, but it's turning into a mad house at the academy with her class in training, son." he said and Mione started laughing at that. "Yeah that sounds like big sister alright, but there we go, you're my adoptive parents now." I said and Ted and Andy nodded smiling gently at that remark.

"And students, we're keeping the reckless stunts in flying out of the equation and I mean that." Minerva said and we all nodded and I looked at Zach, who looked down and they nodded sternly. "We're not doing that again, so try and you're the one getting in trouble again, for the fourth time in one day." I said and Minerva and Madam Hooch nodded sternly in agreement to that remark. "Did the reason also show up here?" Minerva asked and I nodded to her then.

"Yes, but I've got my robes on the bench next to me, Professor." Neville said to her and she nodded. "Let me take a wild guess, but you forgot you weren't wearing your robes right now, and the smoke went red?" Oliver asked and we nodded to him. "That was my ticket to getting on the team in the last one, but this one was a fast training match, before you chose me, as your new seeker." I said to him and he nodded smiling gently at that remark then gently.

"Yes and you're even better then we thought in that training match, going up against a 3rd year even better, but that was excellent little brother." Angelina said to me smiling then. "Hard to believe it's been three days and already the week is going by this quickly, as we're all completely settled in right now, and our classes. They're all getting more interesting now that we spent the summer mastering the basics here now." I said and they nodded gently to that opinion.

"Well flying training after lunch, Potter." Madam Hooch said and we nodded, as we finished our homework for that day, ate lunch and we assembled outside just outside of the school and in front of the pitch. "Good afternoon class." she said and we said it in unison. "Good Afternoon Madam Hooch." we said together as she said it to Mandy. "Afternoon Amanda, Afternoon." she said as she got her gloves on, as I knew the old broomsticks were splintering by this point then.

As she turned to look at us. "Welcome to your first flying lesson, well what are you waiting for, move up to your broom." she said and went to position next to the school brooms. "Put your right hand up over the broom and say up." she said and we did it. "Up!" we said together and mine jumped into my hand immediately and Zach looked at me in shock. "Whoa." I said and Mione tried to keep from laughing as her's immediately leaped into her hand then gently.

"With feeling." Madam Hooch said, and the next growl at his broom caused another blow to the face. "Up!" Ron snapped and it leaped up handle first and smacked him in the face. "Ahh." he said as he covered his nose as Mione, Neville and I started laughing. "I think that means there's no need to yell at me, human, chill." Dean said as the six of us started laughing as he looked at us bemused as she shook her head at that remark then as he answered that.

"Shut up Dean and all of you, cool it." he said as we tried to pull it together. "Well at least it was to the face and not the..., you know." Draco said to him and he nodded. "Indeed, and your father also took it to the face Potter, after he started showing off to your mother, and it smacked him to get him to stop being a show off right now." she said and Mione started laughing. "Uncle James, rein it in." Neville said through his own laughter at that remark and I nodded to that.

"Issues in being 11, he wanted her to like him and she wasn't giving him a glance till his ego deflated." I said and she nodded. "Indeed, but you're nothing like him at this age now and all of you pull yourselves together, shall we?" she said and we all nodded as we reined in our laughter at that response. "Alright now that you got a firm grip on your broom, I want you to mount it, and grip it tight, so you don't be sliding off the end." she said and we did so then gently.

"Now, when I blow my whistle, you kick off from the ground, hard. Keep your brooms steady, rise a few feet, and then come straight back down by leaning forward slightly. On my whistle..., three, two..." she said and blew her whistle, before I saw Neville's get a little erratic. "Mr. Longbottom." she said as she tried to keep him from going up too high, before the rest of us were murmuring at that as she said it quickly at that remark then.

"Mr. Longbottom..., Mr. Longbottom." she said as I shouted out his name. "Neville, pull up." I snapped at him just as it went for mad fly as I yanked my wand. "Arresto momentum!" I snapped and the broom froze, as she went up to get him then. "Nice thinking Mr. Potter, and 10 points to Gryffindor, for protecting a friend from a serious injury." she said as we all sighed in relief as I patted my brother on the shoulder and he looked at me with a grateful smile then.

"Madam Hooch, with these brooms so old and after that visual aid, I took the liberty, now, to donate to the school some new ones." I said and she nodded. "What do we have Potter?" she asked and I explained that. "I chose Cleansweep 7's, with us just starting out as beginners." I said and she nodded. "Very good, for beginners that's the best broom before you get the next one up." she said and we nodded as I unloaded the 40 brooms and we started again.

And this time it went without a hitch as we took it carefully. "If anyone wants to run a test on seeker training, now is good time to do it, cubs." she said and we nodded. "So Malfoy, Potter, want to go it now?" Zach asked with a smirk and I crossed my arms. "I don't know think so Zach, we're not having this turned into the deputy headmistress seeing what is going on and this being taken to the wrong conclusion, besides I made seeker, after the championship last summer."

"Like I said, you're as bad as they are, out of jealousy, Draco and I are the best seekers in the school our age, why do we need to show off?" I asked and she nodded. "I've also got my Papa wolf here, and with him my father, you think I want to prove I never learned anything from them, dad said to stay out of trouble. And I plan to now, but keep trying to get us and Draco, Daphne in trouble and you're only making it worse for yourself in the eyes of the faculty."

"But I'm saying this the way my real father would, but show me a man that resorts to violence and I'll show you a man that's out of good ideas, you know what they mean by that?" I asked and he swallowed hard. "What they mean is you respond to violence by getting violent yourself, and you never learned anything at all. In what this could be called in the book series on the first movie, is defeat the anger in your enemy and he is no longer your enemy now."

"For anger is the true enemy." I said and she and Kingsley both smiled proudly at that remark then as she answered that remark. "And take another 10, for not rising to the bait, that's what I'm referring to right now, live and learn, and last one's mistake is learned now here. But that's very good in ignoring a said bully in trying to get you in trouble, I'm very proud of you, Potter." Madam Hooch said to me and I nodded and Mione smiled at me at that response gently.

"Just why do you keep calling Black your father?" he said in shock and she and Kingsley crossed their arms. "I've been calling him that all summer long, because he adopted me, and is about to start raising me himself now in truth, but though my godfather, my father named him my guardian if anything. And I mean anything happened to him and my mother, but I'm not explaining my family life to you, if you're this bigoted against us muggle raised and born."

"Repeated insults and attempts to start a fight, you want to see a true master of their tempers?" I asked and he swallowed hard. "I think not, and we all got the point there, but again, try it and you're getting detention for a week, young man." Sirius said as he came out in time to hear that. "Just three days and nothing you say to him or us, is enough to cause a repeat of our problems with Draco, I don't care if you're getting more annoyed by the minute here."

"That we never take the bait, but we're not turning this into a repeater of my father's quartet and Severus, so that's enough right now." I said with a growl and he swallowed hard. "Never mind, let's keep going right now, Mam, what's next?" I asked and she smiled gently at that. "Harry, as you're the expert flyer in training, why not do a fast run on that seeker practice." she said and I nodded as she pulled a few golf balls and I got on my broom and kicked off then.

As I got ready for my training session right then, as she chucked the first one as far as possible, and I zoomed after it then and caught it, as she threw another and I caught that, as one by one each ball was tossed, and I caught everyone, as the last one ended up in front of Minerva's class as she saw me catch it. As I came down and with the entire pile in a pouch and she called out to me. "Potter?!" she said and I turned and looked at her gently at that as she said it then.

"Come with me please." she said and I nodded as went with her gently as she lead me to the Defense class then. "Wait here please." she said and I nodded, as she went into the room. "Professor Quirrell, excuse me, could I borrow Wood for a moment?" she asked and he said it gently. "Yes, of course." he said and I nodded, as I knew we were about to fake this for the rest of the year then, as she lead Oliver out and said it to me gently at that remark.

"Potter this is Oliver Wood, Wood, I have found you a seeker." she said and he smiled. "First training test and never missed a single one?" he asked and he nodded. "Not at all, the last one was a Sloth grip just outside my window, and he caught in seconds of a near collision." she said and he nodded. "I'd be honored to have him as a member of my team." he said and she nodded as she looked at me gently at that remark as she said it then.
