Heya Its currently 9:53 PM and I'm well into my exceptionally boring, copy
from notebook type-a-thon. I just spent hours working on a report for
school and now I'm making myself write up the stories that I have written
Disclaimer: WAAAHH! Come on J.K. I want em.no? . WAAAHHHH!
*************************** Chapter two: settling in
"Oh Miss Granger, or should I say Hermione since you are going to be a teacher here before long" The Headmaster greeted as Hermione and Remus walked into his office. "Hello Headmaster. er. Albus" greeted Hermione awkwardly.
"So Hermione I need to see that you get settled in." Said Minerva who was standing next to Albus' side
"Yes. Minerva" She followed the woman out of the office and along the hallways and staircases until they reached the Portrait of The Fat Lady and Stood next to it where there was a thick burgundy drape. When Minerva pushed it away there was a little alcove with a painting of a pair of lovers embracing on the right wall but there was a steady life to this painting they stood there in place but it seemed that they were asleep and breathing softly because they moved ever so slightly but didn't wake up as the other paintings did. Minerva slipped into the alcove before Hermione realized that it was wide, at least the size of the Gryffindor house door probably a little wider, and as she walked deeper a small golden lantern lit itself and another painting was reveled this one was the size of the Gryffindor house door and the subject was a pretty young girl with pale hair, pale blue robes and a crown of wild daisies. She looked like she was about sixteen or seventeen not very much older than herself and she was sleeping against the tree in the picture.
"Miss Marina wake up!" Minerva called into the picture and the girl began to open her eyes
"Yes Minerva what is it?" she asked sleepily rolling over revealing a handsome young man with bright red hair and blue-green robes sleeping next to her
"I have a young lady who would like to live here," explained Minerva
"Just one person?"
"Yes Miss Marina" Minerva replied winking at the girl.
"Very well then, what will your password be?" asked the blonde girl
"May I change it later?" asked Hermione contemplating her options "and can it be a phrase?"
"Of course to both questions Miss."
"Hermione. And I want my pass phrase to be 'Either the darkness alters, or something in the sight adjusts itself to midnight and life steps almost straight'"
"Alright Hermione you may go in now" stated the portrait swinging the doorway open to the set of rooms. As Hermione walked into the main room, one that reminded her of the Gryffindor common room to the right was a tower room that was a split level of one of the towers in the courtyard. To her left was a study that contained two desks and various filing boxes and that had two tiny hallways one to a secret passage into the Gryffindor common room and the second into a secret passage into the kitchen, she assumed and was correct in her assumption that each of the teachers had one of these passages. She moved into the top area of the spit floor of the tower room. She was amazed by the brightness of a room with deep wine red walls. The lamps were fitted with gold glass but none of them were on the light was coming from a huge window that was about 3 feet off the ground. Just below it was a bed that used up about 1/3 of the floor space in the room, there were thin white gauzy curtains around the window and some, fastened to the walls next to the bed that would obviously cover the bed if need be. There was another layer of curtains on the window and the bed these ones made of heavy burgundy velvet obviously used to keep the sleeper in the dark and not to let drafts in. all the rest of the wall space was devoted to a private library with a shelf to add her own books, except where the dresser sat. Already in wonder she left the top spit and walked down the stairs to the second split this one was a bright bathroom with another huge window and a large bathtub that was rather like the one in the prefects' bathroom. And to one side was a shower room. The whole floor was paved with white, pale burgundy, and pale gold tiles. The window was fitted with gold curtains. After exploring the rooms she turned and realized Minerva hadn't even come into the rooms at all Hermione had left her at the door and she had left sometime during the exploring.
The one week from the time Hermione arrived to the time the students would be arriving had passed and Hermione had already gotten four letters from Ginny begging her to tell her what and where her job was but Hermione had already decided that she really wanted to see the look on her younger friend's face when she saw her sitting up there with the teachers. Minerva had explained to her the way her training in would work. After one month she would take over the first years and every month after that she would take a new class ending with seventh years in the spring.
At last the day the students arrived came and Hermione was exceptionally nervous because she would be meeting the new first years in the front hall and bringing them into the dining hall. When she got to the front hall she realized something, even when she was a seventh year she had never realized how fragile and scared the first years seemed.
"Quiet please!" Hermione said her voice now loud and commanding she hoped she wasn't scaring them too much she remembered how frightening Minerva seemed when she had come to escort them.
"When you enter the hall you will promptly be sorted into your houses. Here at Hogwarts your house is like your family. The houses are Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff, and Slytherin." Finishing her speech she walked them up the isle between tables and took her seat between Minerva and Remus. Minerva got up quickly to actually sort the students, which happened relatively fast for there were only 17 this year. Rather low compared to other years Dumbledore quickly made the announcements which consisted of the fact that the forbidden forest was not for students to go into and the forbidden item list was now extended to include Weasley's' Wizard Wheeze's Laughing and Licking Lasso and then he simply said two words as he had said in her fourth year
"Tuck in" *******************
I hope that was good.. And for the pass quote it was Emily Dickens and Laughing and Licking were the only words I could think of that start with 'l' that could be used to describe a lasso, even one in the Potterverse *Review*
