Harry woke up to on September 2nd and it was the first day of lessons. He found the dormitory warm and comfortable and he felt like he was finally at home. He really wanted to seek out Sirius but he didn't know if he was in the castle. Then he remembered something about him being the pet in Defense Against the Dark Arts class. That got Harry thinking to Lupin and about him being the Professor for that class. He wouldn't exactly be able to do much magic due to the fact that he is a ghost. This would probably be a big disadvantage for everyone. Maybe Harry would have to start the D.A again.
Harry took a shower, got dressed and got his things out for class. The first class was the dreaded potions. He also had Transfigurations and Defense Against the Dark Arts. He was hoping desperately that people wouldn't act weird around him even though he was the minister but he knew that it all would be different now.
Harry walked down to the common room and found Ron and Hermione sitting around the fire.
"Hey mate," Ron waved.
"Hi Ron, hey Hermione," Harry greeted.
"We have to go to potions," Hermione told them.
"I hate potions with that greasy git," Ron yelled.
As they were walking there Harry stopped and Ron and Hermione stared at him.
"Ron," Harry said. "You're not mad at me for beating your dad are you?"
"No I'm not mate. I know you didn't have any control over it," Ron told him.
"Thanks Ron. You know, I am giving your dad a raise. I think he would be good doing Umbridge's old job."
"Cool!"
They were surprisingly the first ones in the room and Harry and Ron sat together in the back. Minutes later billowing black robes came striding in and Snape slammed the door hard after him.
"We are making a potion today called Desireo. It shows everyone your greatest desires," Snape hissed and flicked his wand so instructions were up on the board.
Harry and Ron quickly began. Harry had gotten a lot better in potions now so it wasn't a problem. Harry looked over at Malfoy occasionally and he looked completely normal. He and Snape weren't as friendly to each other. They weren't exactly friendly normally but usually Draco was his favorite student. It looked like that has changed a bit.
Nearing the end of the potions class everyone was bringing there potion up to the professor.
"Mr. Longbottom the potion is supposed to be purple. It is not supposed to be this ugly green color."
Neville gulped. Even though he was getting older and less pudgy he was still very intimidated by his hateful professor.
"Try it now," he spat.
Neville nervously took a sip of the potion and a smoky bubble appeared above his head. A picture of Hermione appeared.
Everyone soon realized that his greatest desire was the bushy haired muggle born sitting next to Dean Thomas. Everyone laughed and Neville ran out of the room with a bright red face.
"Professor Snape?" Harry asked.
"Yes M..M....Minister," Snape said apprehensively.
Harry blushed slightly but ignored it.
"Um.Um.I forget," Harry said and sat down.
Snape dismissed everyone but Harry stayed back.
"Professor Snape," Harry said.
"Yes Minister," he said without looking up.
"Um.you don't have to call me that."
Snape didn't say anything but he continued to collect papers in a pile. Harry knew that the only reason he called him that was because the position of power he was in and Snape technically worked for him. Unfortunately for him he worked for a 16 year old Gryffindor.
Harry turned to the door to leave but Snape called him back.
"Potter I think we need aurors in a little muggle village outside muggle London."
"How do you know?" Harry asked.
"I think you can guess Mr. Potter," he said.
"Okay do you know when?"
"Tomorrow night. They should probably be there by eight."
"Okay."
Harry walked closer to the door and turned around again.
"Thank you professor."
Harry's next class was Transfiguration. The class went by quite smoothly. Neville never showed up and some of the Slytherins laughed about what happened in potions. Hermione's face was never so red.
Finally after lunch it was time for Defense Against the Dark Arts class. Harry walked with Hermione and Ron to the classroom and was surprised to see Lupin and Sirius.
"Sirius what are you doing here?" Harry asked happily.
"Didn't you hear? I am the new assistant! Since Moony here can't exactly do magic I am here for that."
"That is so cool!"
"George and Fred would be so jealous if they knew that two of the marauders were our teachers!" Ron exclaimed.
"Haha, yeah but don't tell anyone," Remus told them.
"Why not?" Hermione asked.
"I don't know. Maybe one day when no one is expecting it we will surprise them," Sirius laughed.
Soon everyone started filing in and the trio took their seats. Neville was back but was clearly avoiding Hermione. Hermione was doing the same.
"Hello class. You should all remember me. I taught you in your third year and my name is Professor Lupin."
"And I am sure you all heard of me. I am Sirius Black," Sirius said proudly.
"Professor" Lupin whispered to Sirius.
"Yeah Professor Black."
Some of the Slytherins sniggered.
"Actually I really hate when people call me Professor so when the other professors aren't around you can just call me Sirius."
Harry smiled. If Dumbledore found out he would probably be mad. Harry knew that all the teachers weren't supposed to be addressed by their first names. He didn't exactly know why but he had a feeling the headmaster was stern about it.
"Today we are going to learn a little more about dueling. Everyone will partner up and you will be taught some fairly simple shielding spells this week. Next week we will work on more blocking spells and then we will just take it from there. Everyone partner up," the ghost told the class.
Harry immediately picked Ron and across the room Malfoy picked Zambini.
"Harry, Malfoy could you please come here." Sirius beckoned them.
Harry and Draco walked to the front of the class confusingly.
"Dumbledore has asked me to partner you in these types of things. I am not exactly sure why and I don't really know but-"
"Sirius I think we'll be okay," Harry interrupted.
Malfoy gave him an odd look but went back in there positions to begin.
"Why did you do that Potter?" he asked.
"I don't know. Let's just do this."
Sirius and Lupin taught them all three pretty advanced shields. The only two people who had mastered them by the end of the class were Malfoy and of course, Harry.
At the end of class Sirius told Harry where his dormitory was and Lupin said good bye. Harry saw Malfoy leaving and then he started to talk to him.
"Potter, do you know anything about Snape?"
"Malfoy I already told you he isn't a deatheater. You really don't have to worry about it."
"Potter I can't exactly explain how I know but I do know that he is a deatheater."
"I know. Look you are just going to have to talk to Dumbledore or Snape about this."
"See ya Potter," Malfoy said neutrally and strode off the opposite way.
Harry was a little confused about the way Malfoy has been acting but he shrugged it off and went to the common room.
After dinner he portkeyed to his office.
"Hello Acacia," Harry greeted.
"Harry you have a meeting in fifteen minutes with the head aurors."
"Okay. I have to tell them to position aurors right outside of muggle London tomorrow night."
"What is happening?" Acacia asked.
"I am not exactly sure but my sources tell me that there will probably be an attack."
"And who may I ask are your sources?"
"They are exactly that. MY sources," Harry said with a grin.
Harry walked into the meeting room and saw three aurors there. One of them was the head and sat at the head of the table.
"Minister Potter, good evening," the head auror said.
Harry sat down.
"Hello," Harry said to all of them.
"Mr. Potter we have some very important business to discuss but first we would like to know if you have anything important to talk about."
"Actually," Harry said. "There is. I want at least 20 aurors in the village right outside of muggle London. I heard that there is going to be an attack and I don't want anyone dying."
"Okay Minister. Where did you hear this?"
"It doesn't matter about that now but I do want to make sure there will be aurors there tomorrow."
"Yes Mr. Potter."
"Thank you. That is all I think," Harry said.
"Okay well moving on to other very important business you are need to go on a very important mission sir."
A/N- Cliffie I know but I hope you liked this chapter. I will try and update Sunday if not tomorrow. I know some of you may thing that Snape was a little OOC but he has to respect the new minister whether he likes it or not. Oh and all my chapters are going to stay at this length. Probably a little longer, each being at 1700. I just want everyone to remember that I am not J.K and I am doing the best I can. You can tell me any suggestions you may have and reviews motivate me to write faster.
PLEASE REVIEW! YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH I LOVE REVIEWS!
