After lunch was Defense Against the Dark Arts, which Sade would be helping teach, though she didn't know how she'd be doing that. Her friends had told her that Professor Lupin was really great friend, and a wonderful teacher, so she wouldn't need to worry. When they walked in, they saw that Lupin was sitting at his desk. He looked about the same, except that he had better robes.
"Go on up to him, Professor Riddle. You're a teacher too you know," Ron said, pushing her up to the desk.
Lupin looked up and smiled softly.
"Hello, Ron. How have you been?"
"I've been pretty good. You look better."
"Yes, I feel better being back at Hogwarts." He stood up. "So this must be my new assistant teacher, Miss Riddle," he said shaking her hand. "I remember you parents. They were one of the most beautiful couples, besides Harry's parents. But they had a lot of problems, mainly because of your uncle, Tom." He paused. "But there's one thing that's very clear, you may have the name Riddle, but you have the heart of a Potter. And I'm very proud to have you as my assistant."
"Thank, Professor," she replied blushing, "I hope that I will live up to your expectations."
By then other students were coming in. Sade sat down at a chair to Lupin's left. Hermonie was beaming at her, and mouthed, "You are soo lucky." Sade blushed again.
When the bell rang, Lupin silenced the class.
"Hello everyone. As you can see, I'm back to teach you, but it will only be for this year, as far as I know. Now, this time, I have an assistant, sort-of a "teacher in training" that will be helping me in this class. You all know her as Sade," motioning to his left, "but when you are in this class she will address her as Professor Riddle. She has all the rules allowed as other teachers, which includes being able to give and take house points. You will show her the same respect that you show your other teachers. Understood?"
Everyone in the classroom nodded.
"But you don't have to worry, I won't be rude about it. I will try to be as fair as possible, but I warn you, being your teacher, do not test me," Sade said, standing. "So, what will we be learning today, Professor?"
"Yes, right. We will be learning about banshees. To stop a banshee, you have to say "Immutieo!". This will destroy the banshee. But you must keep your mind clear. There has been a large group of banshees spotted in the forest, but they won't come out during the day time. Professor Dumbledore said that when you were ready, that this class would go a kill them. But for now, we will be studying them. Since it is close to the full moon, I am a little under the weather, so Professor Riddle will be reading the notes to you, and I will answer any questions needed, but listen closely so that you don't ask the same question that another student already did. Let's begin," he finished, handing Sade the lecture notes.

The rest of the class period went without problem. Lupin was very pleased with this, and one thing that he liked and complimented Sade on was her style of teaching. Most of the time, if a student answered a question, she would ask the class if they knew the answer first, and whomever knew the answer would earn a house point, and whatever questions they didn't know, Sade would answer. At the end of class, Ebby flew in with a letter in his mouth. He dropped it on the desk in front of her.
"Thanks Ebby. I'll bring up some food for you later."
He flew back out, people ducking when he flew above them.
"So who's the letter from?" Harry asked.
She opened the letter, and moved back.
"Come on, Professor, who's it from?" Ron said, teasing her, trying to see the letter.
"It's none of your business, Mr. Weasley," she replied. "I'll see you guys in the common room later."
When they had left, Sade really read the letter.

Sade,

I know I said that you were to start coming tomorrow, but I would like it if you came tonight, so that we could talk. I will have food brought down to the dungeon for us.

Severus
