The Harpy Chapter One: The Meeting

Nynx rode her great,black Andalusian horse through the gates of Hogwarts.She felt the magic flow through her body.She grimaced,Hogwarts always brought back the bad memories. She spurred Bucephelus,her horse, onwards until she reached the doors.She smoothly dismounted and headed through to the Great Hall to meet Dumbledore.

"Ah Proffesor Cernunnas,nice to see you!"

"And you too Headmaster!Hogwarts hasn't changed at all."

"You on the other hand have,you have grown quite a bit since I last saw you!"

*Yes I have Headmaster,I'm not an ugly little child any more*

Nynx wasn't very pretty when she was young because she was out of proportion and her ears had always been the subject to taunts but as she grew into her body she grew more beautiful every day.She had always wished that she looked like her best friend, Gabriel,blonde blue eyed and basically perfect.Even now Nynx still wished she looked like her.

"Enough with the formalities Albus,I have come to do a job to do,or has my position been filled without me knowing?"

"Nothing of the sort Nynx,how is your charming mother?"she grimaced again,her mother and her never really got along.Her mother taught her everything she knew but she blamed Nynx for her own death.

"She says that in case you cared to ask she is well and if i happen to die,lose my memory get sacked or worse she finds that I have run off and married Gilderoy Lockhart she will personally seperate you from your organs of generation.To put it politly."

"I see your mother hasn't lost any of her spunk ,"

"Never will"

"If you follow me I will introduce you to your colleagues and then I will show you to your rooms."

"Thankyou,Albus there is a slight problem.I have brought my horse Buchephelus and my pet wolf-er- Wolf.I will remove them if you think that they will be a problem."

"Nonsense Nynx,it will be no problem at all, I'm sure we can arrange something for you.Now follow me please."

Severus Snape almost started banging his head against the wall when he heard the news.He had been refused the DADA position AGAIN.And to make matters worse the new Proffessor was-is a harpy!!!He had no predjudices( at this point the author,me,snorts and coughs out the word Gryffindor) against women,well except for women like Umbridge,but a harpy!!!! Sometimes he thought that Albus had lost his mind . He pulled a book from his rather exstensive private library and looked up the article on harpies.It said.
"Harpies are powerful witches who were violently killed
by a man,they did not necassarily have to have been
killed with magic.If their death was violent and they had
enough power it would transform them.Harpies are
renowned for their hunting,riding and archery skills.They
are also renowned for their amazing ability to tame most
wild and domesticated animals.
It is unknown where they live but it is thought that they
live in a secret forest where they could hone their hunting
riding and archery skills.
Harpies avenge their 'death' by killing their murderer/s.And
if they can not find their killer they die only when the killer dies
a natural death.
They look like their former selves except that they have
pointed ears and have slitted eyes with no irises.They also
carry the scars of their fatal wounds.
As their is no proof that harpies exist it is thought that they are
pure myth."

Snape snorted.If they were pure myth he wouldn't be in this amned situation.His clock chimed one o'clock and he groaned.It was time to meet the new Proffessor. He glided up to the staffroom and burst through the door.What greeted him was something he was not going to forget easily.
