At 9 O clock precisely Sloxeer walked to the group of fifth years who had already gathered on the school grounds. When they saw Sloxeer everything fell silence. Sloxeer opened her mouth to say something, when the door of the castle opened and the three children she had warned earlier that day in the train, appeared.
"You're too late. Two points from Gryffindor. Each of you."
The face of the boy with the red hair looked pissed off. He bowed to the other boy, and whispered a bit too loud. "I bet she's been waiting behind a tree till it was 9 O clock. We're only 10 seconds too late!"
"Two more points from Gryffindor for whispering in company, and three points for making such a stupid comment."
Before the boy could protest Sloxeer turned around, and started the lesson.
"Like the bright ones under you might know; today's full moon. That's why you're going into the Forbidden Forest to find some ingredients for.... -Professor Snape-." There was a lot of disgust going out from her voice. Sloxeer took some time to enjoy the frightened looks on the faces of the students. She felt pretty angry when a girl said with a trembling voice there were all kind of monsters in the forest. "Of course there are, silly! Some of the ingredients you've got to find are in the lairs or even on the back of the creatures! I hope you've learned some good spells against werewolves and vampires. And watch out for the centaurs, they don't like being disturbed while watching the full moon...." She evilly glared at the three children. Sloxeer saw something twinkling on the forehead of the boy. She squeezed her eyes. Was that.... A mark? Harry Potter? Sloxeer quickly re-established.
She swung with her wand and pieces of parchments with instructions flew into the hands of the students. "Make groups of 4 or 5 persons, and then find everything what's on the parchment. When you've collected everything, quickly return. When you're in danger, I suggest you to scream and then run as fast as you can. I'll be waiting here for you. Good luck."
The students doubtful formed small groups and walked into the forest. Soon Sloxeer heard screaming, and she saw some fireworks appearing above the forest. She sighed, and walked into the forest. There she saw the group of Potter again, against a 2 meters high werewolf, who was growling wildly.
"Grab some of his fur!" Sloxeer commanded. "That can be used for making a.... A...."
"A fighter against a surplus of the singing of birds. Very important, if you ask me." It was Severus.
Angrily Sloxeer turned around. "What are you doing in my lessons?" she asked Snape. "I told you to stay out." Her voice was so calm and menacing that it sounded really scary. Snape lifted his eyebrow and stepped forward. "Maybe because this is your first day on Hogwarts and I thought you might needed some.... help." Snape answered sarcastically. He looked at the three children who were still trying to hide from the werewolf.
"So you've met Mr. Potter and his fellows Weasly and Granger? It seems like they're having trouble. Shouldn't you help them?"
Sloxeer was furious. She turned to the werewolf, cut off some of his hair, cursed him and the werewolf shrank to the size of a mouse. Sloxeer turned back to Snape. "I can handle things on my own. I don't need you, my brother."
'Ouch,' Sloxeer thought. 'That must hurt. I've never called him brother before.'
Snape nervous looked to the three astonished kids, nodded, and then walked away. Sloxeer felt relieved. She threw the fur to the three kids who were still sitting on the ground, and wanted to walk farther when she remembered a thing. She turned to the kids. "Three points from Gryffinfor for eavesdropping our conversation. If you'll tell somebody else about it, you'll regret it. Now go collect the other ingredients."
Sloxeer walked out of the forest and saw some kids standing around a crying fifth years.
"He's bitten by some sort of dark animal. It was his own fault." Sloxeer looked at the guy who had spoken. "Malfoy, right?"
The boy nodded.
"Bring him to the hospital wing. The rest goes back into the forest."
More and more fifth years came back with burns or cuts, and only a few were left. At 2 O clock Sloxeer told them to get to bed. While she closed the door behind and walked back to her room she thought that cursing Severus probably would be a good solution.

End of chapter 2! Yay! Lidi's first guess was right! Okay, reviews are still very appreciated.
