A rose by any other name
Harry yawned as he trudged towards potions class. "Why must we take this stupid class anyway?" Ron nodded in agreement to his friends' words. "Aye." "Because it's an important part of magic Harry you know that." Frizzy haired Hermione replied to her ill friends. "Bleh… maybe Professor Snape won't be here today!" Yuri Tsuki chimed in happily. Ahhh… Blonde bliss.
The four-some made their way to the filthy dungeons of Professor Severus Snape. Harry was the first to enter and expecting to see the familiar face and hear the familiar voice of Professor Snape was rather surprised at what he saw. For Snape did not stand in front of the glass but a woman did, a rather strange looking one at that. She struck Harry as a female Lockheart…mainly because of her brightly colored robes. "Hey! Look's like we might have gotten our wish!"
The woman turned to face the awe struck group and smiled. "Welcome. Professor Snape is sorry to say that he could not come to teach today. He has become sick but should be back tomorrow!" The class whined…well most of the class whined save Malfoy and the others. "Please take your seats." She motioned for them to sit as she began to pace the floor." I am Airu Dumbledore. No I am not Headmaster Dumbledore's wife or sister. I am his daughter. You my address my as professor Airu if you'd like." She smiled another annoying yet still kind smile." Now for roll!" She clasped her hands together and began to call out names." Harry Potter…Hermione Granger…Ronald Weasley…Yuri Tsuki…Draco Malfoy." and on and on she went.
"Now you work for today, left my your normal teacher is to write an essay on the effects of a potion of your choice. Says her that it has to at least three rolls of parchment." Airu read off the homework like it was a Christmas gift list.
After many whines, gripes, and complaints everyone began their work. Ahhh… silence. Airu leaned against Snape's desk watching the class until the bell rang.
"You may go. "She yawned as they left.
"Maybe Professor Snape won't come back tomorrow!" "Yeah I sort of liked that lady." This was the worst thing though that Harry and Ron could talk about at that moment. "I wouldn't plan on it." Hissed an all to familiar voice behind them. Harry was the first to turn around and he saw Professor Snape standing behind them, rather pitiful looking as he was wrapped up in a heavy woolen blanket." I advise you to get to class." He growled, obviously rather disgruntled.
"Yes Sir" All four said quietly, trying to hold back laughter.
They headed off, until they heard Snape's voice again. "AIRU DUMBLEDORE WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING IN MY CLASSROOM!?" "Well I would hardly call this a classroom. A torture chamber yes, but not a classroom. "OUT, OUT OUT OUT!!" I'm sorry Severus No can do. You're sick and you're not going to teach today!" And so the two continued the argument. Harry and the rest had left by now, most uncaring about Snape's health and weather or not he won his fight with Airu. Today was going to be one to remember.
