Here's the 3rd Chapter to Harry Potter and the Heir of Slytherin. Please
review it.
Harry told the new password and came to the Gryffindor common room which was still the same and he saw Ron and Hermione sitting in one corner waiting for him. Ron saw him and asked, "So, why did Dumbledore call u?". Hermione too was curious to know. Harry told them that what Dumbledore had just told him. Ron looked worried on hearing You-Know-Who's rise and Hermione also looked as worried as Harry. There was a silence for about a minute and then Hermione told, "I think we must go to sleep, tomorrow is the first day of our 6th year." So, they all went to sleep.
The next morning Harry, Ron and Hermione got up and were having their breakfast in the Great Hall when the mails had started to come and Harry had also received one. It was from Sirus. Harry read it in a low voice but loud enough for Ron and Hermione to listen. It read:
Dear Harry, I hope you've read about the attacks in Netherlands and Paris. I heard from a few people that only the Death Eaters were seen but there is still no sign if Voldemort. Dumbledore has told me that Voldemort might attack London any time. We've gathered most of the old crowd and you'll be happy to hear that I'm with Lupin. Harry, I want you to be careful and it would be better if you don't go anywhere out of Hogwarts. I would like to meet you, Harry. How about on the weekend, when all the students are gone to Hogsmeade? I will meet you in the Gryffindor common room. I've told Dumbledore and taken his permission. Take care Harry and don't go anywhere out of Hogwarts and always go everywhere with Ron and Hermione.
Sirus
Harry put the letter into his pocket and saw Dumbledore was looking at him. Harry understood Dumbledore new that it was Sirius's letter. "Sirus will have to be careful this time because You-Know-Who is running around freely and I think he would want to kill Sirus too", said Hermione who was trying to speak as low s possible so that no one would hear them. Ron saw his watch and said, "Let's move on, I don't want to miss Snape's first class of our 6th year or we'll cleaning dirt or something for detention." Just then Dumbledore stood up and said, "I would like you all to meet our new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher, Miss Fleur Delacour." Harry and Ron almost slipped when they heard that their new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher was Fleur. Harry remembered that she had told him she would try to get a job at Hogwarts. Ron was looking as happy as ever. Looking at him Hermione said, "I wonder how long she will stay because all of our Defense Against the Dark Arts teachers only lasted a year." Ron ignored her and saw that she was looking at them. "I think she wants to speak to us, Harry", said Ron. And she did. She came straight to them and said, "Hello Harry, Ron and Hermione. How are all of you? I have improved my English and I also got job in Hogwarts." Harry replied, "We are glad to see you, Fleur." Ron also said, "Yes, I'm happy that you are our new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher." Harry and Hermione both grinned at that and Ron ignored them.
At the Potions class Snape talked to them in his usual way and then spotted Harry and said, "So Potter, this is your 6th year and you have to study hard to get good O.W.L.s. Lets see how you do it this time." Harry looked at him and saw Ron on his side trying to vomit when Snape was not looking.
The rest of the day went quite fine till the Divination class. Professor Trelawney welcomed them in the same way she did. She opened her book and said, "This year you all will learn advanced fortune telling and advanced crystal gazing and so on. We shall start with Crystal gazing. Now, everyone take on your crystal balls and say 'Resboliana' and then tell me what you see. This spell is used to see the very near future and also a fearsome future." All the students began to gaze into their balls and a few began telling what they could see. Ron could see nothing and many of the students could see nothing. Just then Parvati Patil said that she could see something unusual in Harry's ball which Harry could also saw but thought it could not be what he was thinking it was. Professor Trelawney came over to Harry's desk and saw something and clamped her had to her mouth. Harry knew she had seen what he thought it was.
She began to tremble looking at Harry and said, "Harry, I-I s-s-see the Dark Mark. You-Know-Who's Dark Mark." The whole class was silent and Harry and Ron looked at each other and just looked at the ball. Professor Trelawney stopped the lesson over there and dismissed the class but said Harry to stay back. Ron also asked if he could stay back with Harry and she agreed.
Harry told the new password and came to the Gryffindor common room which was still the same and he saw Ron and Hermione sitting in one corner waiting for him.
