Chapter 10
Professor Snape
Shayna, Jes, and Josh sat examining their schedules at the breakfast able. Shayna was in awe. Someone had actually agreed to tech her magical theory ... this was great! "We have Herbology with the Ravenclaws today." Josh groaned
"But at least we have charms." Jes said brightly Charms had always been her best subject
"I got it" Shayna said, still in disbelief "Got what?" they asked in a funny kind of unison sounding as though there were more then two people. There were more. Alana, Selphie, and Amber had sat down across from them. "someone's gonna teach me magical theory, but it doesn't say who."
"Probably Snape." Selphie reasoned "I mean you are most defiantly his favorite."
"Well guess who has advanced Potions this year." Amber said proudly "Me too!" Shayna gasped "Oh cool. This is gonna be a great year!"
8:30 a.m. came and the group of Slytheirns entered professor Flitwick's classroom. The short little wizard took his spot at the front of the class atop a stack of books. "Good Morning" he squeaked "This will be an exciting year for all of you as you are preparing to take the O.W.L.'s" The classroom full of Slytherins groaned, but the Professor pretended not to notice. "We will be reviewing for the first couple of weeks and then get into some new material."
And that seemed to be the theory of each of the teachers. They reviewed Summoning Charms, Muggle Measurements in arithmancy, and moved on to seed dehydration in herbology. And after Cho Chang tripped Shayna on her way out of the green houses she and Amber made their way to the dungeons for Advanced Potions.
She and Amber took the table at the front of the room and awaited the lesson. She looked about the room and remembered the first time she had entered it as a frightened first year. A tap on her back brought her out of the past. She turned to see Brad smiling at her. "Hi are you in advanced Potions too?" she asked hopefully "No" he said importantly "I just have some business to report to Professor Snape, first year boys sneaking out." "oh ..."
Then Brad looked coarsely at Shayna,as though he were seeing something he'd never seen before. She smiled sheepishly "Shayna can I ask you something?" "Yes?" she said smiling in anticipation "What is that on your neck?" Shayna put her hand to her throat and felt cold scales. "Oh" she said disappointedly "it's just Salazar." "OH just Salazar" he hissed "don't sound so excited!" Amber looked quickly over at Shayna and blinked a few times, but she was too busy watching Brad talk to Snape to notice either Amber or Salazar.
Severus nodded to Brad and swept to the front of the classroom. "Good afternoon" he began "I trust your other Professors have continued down their usual paths of reviewing with the fifth ye-" The opening of the dungeon door made Severus stop and all heads turn. Fred and George Wheasly waved casually to the class as they strolled to their table.
Snape cleared his throat. "Oh boys, I am certain you know what time classes begin as I was in the Owlery when Professor McGonnal sent out the schedules." "Right-O" Fred smiled "we just thought we'd be fashionably late it being the first day with you this year." "You know so we can get off to the right start." George added to every one's surprise Snape smiled. "Well boys you've certainly let me know what to expect of you this year." he handed them both detention slips for what must have been a long time judging from their expressions "And now you boys know what to expect from me."
"As I was saying. Such review will not be had in this class. I will continue down my path of teaching you each lesson only once, and preparing you for the O.W.L.'s from the first day we meet. He turned and wrote Amunit on the chalk board. "It would be wise to write this down. Amunit is used to make the consumer immune to what ever strain of bacteria they add to it. It will only be affective if this illness is fatal. It was created by Ronda Matric to save her family from the black plague."
by now the board read:
1 liter of pure water
5 drops of dragon's blood
3.5 grams of powdered mold
1 strain of bacteria
2 grams of Mushroom gills ...
