All the houses had thier Defense Against the Dark Arts books with them at dinner, so after dinner they could just start right into the lesson. Once everyone had finshed the teachers lefted, expect for Snape. Kryta had asked him if he could help her handle the students and since she was new she needed to know the names and Snape knew them all.

"Today, you will learn some of the basics when it comes to Defense Against the Dark Arts-" started Kryta when a Slytherin, Draco Malfoy, started talking to a fellow Slytherin.

"Mr. Malfoy is there something you wish to say to the class?" bellowed Snape.

"Just that my father said that she is a parselmouth and that she is the-" Draco said when Snape put a spell on him.

Kryta looked at Draco. She remembered his father but thought he knew better than every telling his son something about her.

"Are you?" asked a Ravenclaw first year girl.

"I will not deny that I am a Parselmouth," said Kryta.

The students expect for Draco gapsed.

"So is Harry," said Ron, remembering their second year at Hogwarts.

"Are you Harry?" hissed Kryta.

"Yes," Harry hissed back.

Kryta nodded.

"Well since that is settled we will begin out lesson . . . this week we will practice dueling. Snape and I will show you," said Kryta speaking english.

Snape adn Kryta bowed to each other then said, "Excelius!" "Expremis!"

Kryta's curse, 'excelius', hits Snape and he started to have boils come up and his skin began to melt off of him while his curse didn't even touch Kryta. He fell to the floor and balled up. Kryta whispered something noone else could hear. The boils went away and his skin was once again normal.

"I should have never tought you that one," said Snape as he stood up.

"You didn't have a choice," Kryta said.

"True."

Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, and Hufflepuff all cheered for Kryta while Slytherin booed. Kryta and Snape bowed again to each other meaning the duel had stopped.

"Draco and Harry will duel against each other," said Kryta.

Snape nodded. Draco opened his mouth to say something but with a look from Snape he shut it.

(Draco and Kryta had known each other when they were kids but Draco had only seen Kryta and not her father. He was bitter to her because she was better with curses and flying than him)

Harry walked over to Kryta.

"Say 'Excredin," whispered Kryta.

Harry nodded. Harry and Draco just nodded thier heads and yelled, "Excredin!" "Expermious!"

Harry's hit first and Draco began to scream before doubling up and clawing himself causing him to bleed where he scratched himself. Harry's wand shout out from his hand and landed in Kryta's hadn who handed it back to Harry. Everyone watched Draco as he turned biting and clawing himself.

"Merclus!" exclaimed Kryta as she pointed her wand at Draco who stopped rolling on the floor, biting and clawing himself.

Everyone was silent as he stood up and Kryta put her wand away.

"Excredin. A curse. All of you have seen the effects now. Tomorrow I will want a essay on this and five points to Gryffindor and Slytherin who put on a good show," said Kryta.

Draco gave Kryta a look of utter hatered.

"Nicely done Potter. Another five points to Gryffindor," said Snape.

Everyone but Snape and Kryta gasped. The doors opened as Professor Dumbledore, McGonagall, and Madame Prompfey walked in.

"What is goin on here?" demanded Professor McGonagall.

"A lesson," said Snape, "We were teaching them dueling and I called Harry and Draco to show us and Harry did a excellant job of a curse."

"I see," said Dumbledore," So what have you learned?"

"We learned a curse which Harry did to Draco. You should've seen the way-" sad a first year Hufflepuff.

"He did the curse 'excredin'," said Kryta.

Dumbledore stared at Kryta so did McGonagall.

"You are showing them some of the curses-uh . . . Voldemort uses," said Dumbledore, while the other paled.

"Yes, I feel that they should know them. . . just incase," said Kryta.

"Can you just tell me when you do some more so the teachers can come. I am sure some of use would like to know them," said Dumbledore.

"Yes, sir," said Kryta, "That will be all for today. Remember I want an essay turned in by tomorrow."

Everyone got up.

"Oh Neville, I wish to talk to you," said Kryta.

Everyone but Neville lefted.

"Neville I know about what happened to your parents and have sent a potions that only the lines of my family know. It will help them get better. Soon you will be able to live with them again, but untill that time, "said Kryta pulling out a book from her robe pocket, "Here is this."

"What is it?" asked Neville.

"It is a diary. I have fixed it so you may write in it and your parents, before they are the way they are right now, can right to you," said Kryta.

"Thank you," said Neville he took the book and held unto it like if it was out of his hands he would die.

"You're welcome Neville," said Kryta.
