Disc: Same as before
A/N: There were a lot of grammatical mistakes in the last chapter. Sorry. Continue to enjoy and I love hearing your comments.
When we reached the DADA classroom, only students were there. Everyone was speculating on who would be the new teacher.
"I heard that a pixie was teaching the class," said one student.
"Don't be ridiculous. A goblin is going to teach us," answered another one.
On and on the rumors flew until to door opened. There stood Albus Dumbledore. "Let's be seated students. In light of recent events, I will be teaching you this year.
"Many of you already know how to make this, but today we are going to work on making a Patronus. We are going to need a lot of room, so we are going to do this outside. Get your things and let's go."
Everyone clambered to get their things. In a few short minutes, everyone was outside and spread out. "Now," Professor Dumbledore said, "think of a happy thought and say /Expecto patronum/."
The yard was filled with shouts of /Expecto patronum/. Many of the Gryffindors were able to produce one on their first try, but it took everyone else a while. It took me a while to find a happy thought. Every time I thought of my life, I thought of my mother. Soon my uncle's news would invade and all I saw was my mother dead.
I finally pictured my fifth birthday. The one day of the year where I wasn't drilled with spells and potions. My mother and I had come to England for our yearly visit. A party was held for my birthday and my father showed up. I was so excited to see him.
Coming out of my dream, I saw my silver snake patronus slither away. Looking to my right, Jessy had finally produced one. Hers was a little bunny that was hopping around. Michelle took a little longer, but she finally produced a large wolf that quickly stalked off.
"Very good!" Dumbledore shouted over all the noise. "Class is over. Go have lunch."
We all left talking excitedly. By the end of class everyone had produced at least one good patronus.
"Didn't you practice Neville?" Hermione asked. Neville turned a bright shade of red and tried not to look at her. "I take that as a no. Anyways, Harry, are we going to do Dumbledore's Army this year?"
"I don't know. Do we need to? I mean, Dumbledore is teaching us this year." Harry seemed real uncomfortable. He too was trying no to look at Hermione.
"What's Dumbledore's Army?" I asked.
"It was something we started last year since Umbridge wouldn't truly teach us DADA. Harry taught us jinxes and counter jinxes."
"I don't think it needs to hidden this year," said a voice behind us. We all turned around and saw Dumbledore. "It would be a great idea to have the club in the Great Hall. We can set up a time for it. Sound good?"
Hermione was the first to nod her head, but everyone soon followed. Dumbledore then added, "Maybe it would also be a good idea to teach some potions."
"Snape would never agree to help us," whined Ron.
"But there's someone else I bet would help." Dumbledore winked at me and left.
"Who would help us?" Ron asked.
"I think he meant Lorene," Hermione explained. "Well?"
"I don't know. I mean, I'm really not that good of a teacher and." I tried to get out of it. I wouldn't mind being part of the club. But to help teach. I couldn't do it.
"Don't listen to her. She'll do it." Of course Michelle would talk for me. Hermione wouldn't take her word and waited for me to say yes. Finally I conceded.
"The problem will be getting supplies. Many that we would need aren't what we use in class."
"And Snape won't let us use those in his supply cabinet," Harry said. We all began to think of ways to get what we would need. Finally Harry said, "Maybe Dumbledore can get what we need."
We all went to lunch feeling better. We would be the best prepared class leaving Hogwarts. Voldemort didn't stand a chance against us.
A/N: Sorry it took so long to update. I hit writer's block for a while there. It's still not the best chapter I've written. The next chapter might take a while to get up. Work is keeping me real busy. I hope you enjoyed this chapter and please review. Thanks!
