"HARRY!" shouted Uncle Vernon. "Come downstairs and make breakfast, and hurry up!"

"Coming!" called Harry. It was a bright Saturday morning and tomorrow he was going back to Hogwarts. Ron had gotten a new owl. Pig was given to Ginny on her birthday and Ron had got a new owl. Ron had named his new owl Squawk because the owl kept on squawking and squawking. Hermione had gone skiing with her parents. Harry was kept home in Dudley's old bedroom.

Suddenly he heard a tap at the window. It was an owl he had never seen before. "That must be Ron's new owl Squawk." Thought Harry. The owl kept on squawking like mad till Harry let him in.

Ron's letter:

Dear Harry,

I can't believe tomorrow were going to be back at Hogwarts and I heard that there will be a new teacher replacing Professor Umbridge. His name is something like Professor Goodwin or something like that. See you soon!

Your friend,
Ron

"A new teacher I wonder what he's going to be like?"

"HARRY, I SAID HURRY UP AND MAKE BREAKFAST!" hollered Uncle Vernon.

After making breakfast Harry went back upstairs and wrote a letter to Ron.

Dear Ron,

I wonder what the new teacher is going to be like? I hope he's not as bad as that Umbridge lady, and your owl squawks like mad! He was at my window squawking so bad it was like my eardrums were going to burst!

Your best friend,
Harry

The next day.....

"Hey Harry, over here!" said Ron. Ron was standing beside Ginny and his mom and dad. Hermione was also with them. "Were almost late Harry!" said Ron's mom Molly. They boarded the Hogwarts Express and left Platform 9 ¾. The first thing Hermione said was "Guess what? I made a potion over the holidays. It lets us see through walls and stuff. Cool eh?" Hermione took out the potions from her book bag and gave it to them. They drank the potion and boy was it horrible. It smelled of skunk and tasted very spicy and sour. Right after drinking the potion they looked up and noticed that everything was invisible except for people and objects. Harry saw Malfoy coming there way. "Malfoy's coming" said Harry. "We know" said Hermione and Ron.

Malfoy was coming closer and closer. Then he reached their train. "Hey Potty, and your little mudbloods friends" "Shut your mouth Malfoy, before a kick your butt off!" said Harry. "What did you say Potty?" said Malfoy with an evil grin. "I said get your but outta here you stinkin Malfoy!" "Expelliarmus!" said Malfoy and Harry went flying in the air and his wand jumped out of his Robes and landed in Malfoy's hands.

Suddenly someone burst in. He must have been a teacher because he was very tall. "What do you think you are doing Mr. Malfoy!? Mr. Potter are you okay ?"

"Who are you?" asked Malfoy.

"I am Professor Goodwin, your new Defence against the Dark arts Teacher."
