Return To Hogwarts
Dumbledore's POV
Dumbledore smiled as a weary Remus reached him. Tiernan is far from an easy person, err wolf, to deal with when he's upset.
Remus flopped rather unceremoniously onto a large rock next to Dumbledore.
"Well done Remus. I thought you'd be the best for this job."
Remus only nodded with his eyes closed.
"However," Dumbledore started, eyes twinkling, "There is one more mission I'd like you to undertake."
Remus opened one eye, regarding Dumbledore in exhausted disbelief.
"After all, the mission to share your knowledge with the future generation is a-"
"WHAT!" Remus shot up staring at Dumbledore incredulously, "You can't seriously mean-"
"Yes Remus, Hogwarts is still in need of a DADA teacher and you fit the bill perfectly."
"But I can't possibly-"
"Of course," Dumbledore continued ignoring Remus' outbursts, "I don't expect you to make the trip and be prepared to teach the next day. I'm going to have a chat with Harry and see if he would mind filling in around full moons. After all, I've never in all my years at Hogwarts have the students suggest a teacher."
Remus just stared at him, his mouth slightly open.
Dumbledore smiled, "I take you stunned silence as approval and I welcome you back on the staff." With that, Dumbledore shook the limp hand of the now reinstated Professor Lupin.
Harry's POV
It felt very strange to already be seated in the Great Hall when all the other students arrived.
Harry smiled and nodded at the DA members all waving franticly at him. Soon the hall was filled and Harry forgot the awkwardness to focus on his empty stomach.
Ron had the same thought apparently as he clutched his stomach and looked longingly at his empty plate.
Hermione, as usual wasn't thinking about food as she scanned the teacher's table. "Hummm, I wonder who get the defense against dark arts job? There aren't any new people."
Harry also glanced up at the table, it was true. All the regular teachers, save Firenze (whom Harry hadn't seen since Fluffy was levitated back to the third floor corridor) were sitting at the table.
Dumbledore was talking to Snape, and by the look on Snape's face he wasn't pleased.
"Somebody got up on the wrong side of the crypt today." Ron muttered seeing Snape's furious face.
Harry sniggered softly, while Hermione gave Ron a reproving look trying to keep her lips from curving up.
All of this was cut short, by Professor McGonagall leading the first years in. As Harry watched the procession of shaking eleven year olds, he noticed one looked familiar.
(A/N yes I tried the sorting song, please no flames on how bad it is)
While war is now upon us
As it once was long ago
We must now hold together
To stop this evil foe
I do my duty every year
by singing this sorting song
I am a hat and can not shed a tear
Even though I feel I am doing wrong
The houses should be united
As they were once before
I fear after I divided
History would once again ensure
The founders of this school once stood proud and tall
But discord among them did fall
Hogwarts crumbled from within and yet I spilt you all
Ravenclaw the wisest, liked the sharp and quick
Strong Gryffindor, chose the brave and true
While Slytheren the cunning, the ambitious ones he picked
And Hufflepuff the kind, said all left would do
Does it all began with choices?
We shall soon see
Don't be afraid for there is hope
While I must divide you all
Bind together like a rope
And Hogwarts shall not fall
Again I have warned you
Hold strong from within
Or history will repeat itself for you
Let the sorting now begin
The Trio shared an uneasy look as McGonagall called out the names.
Dimly Harry recognized Mark Evans as he was sorted into Gryffindor still looking like he expected to wake up at any minute.
He turned his gaze to Dumbledore as he rose, "Welcome to Hogwarts first years! And to our older years welcome back! I'm sure you're more interested in eating than listening to an old man's wheezing, so tuck in!"
Ron and Harry immediately loaded their plates.
Halfway though his dessert he noticed Mark was staring at him, so he grinned and said, "Hey Mark, Hogwarts more interesting than middle school?"
Mark smiled nervously, "Looks cooler. I didn't know you went here."
Harry shrugged, "Non-magic people aren't supposed to know."
"Oh, but why did your uncle-"
Harry smiled, "I think he was joking and people actually believed him. Not surprising with those awful clothes I used to wear." 'or it could be the fact that he hates my guts, but you never know....'
Mark laughed and returned to his food.
"You know him?" Hermione asked looking at Mark curiously.
"He lives near the Dursleys." Harry answered.
Any further questions were cut short, as Dumbledore stood again.
"Now a few reminders, so you don't get into any trouble this year."
Harry chuckled, "Pity he didn't say that in our first year"
"First years are to know that the forbidden forest is off limits to ALL students. No magic is to be used in the corridors, as I'm sure our caretaker Mr. Filch will kindly remind you. As I'm sure you're all wondering there is a new Defense teacher, but unfortunately Professor Lupin is-"
Dumbledore's words were drowned out by the loud roar of approval from the students and it took awhile for Dumbledore to restore calm, "Yes! I'm glad you're happy with the new choice, but as I was saying Professor Lupin is currently out of the country and will be back at the end of the Halloween Feast. For Defense classes tomorrow, someone will take Professor Lupin's place. Now I think that's all the announcements I have for the night save one. Will Harry Potter please report to my office."
"What did I do now?" Harry mused aloud then blushed the surrounding people laughed.
Dumbledore smiled, "No you're not in trouble yet, Mr. Potter. And I hope you stay out of trouble this year."
"No harm in hoping" Harry muttered.
"Now for the rest of you not reporting to my office," Harry rolled his eyes, "Off to bed!"
Ron and Hermione herded the first years to the tower, while Harry headed to the headmasters office.
A/N well the sorting song wasn't great...... please review! Please tell me your opinion on Remus as DADA again. If you want a new one I do have another idea up my sleeve but I want to know your opinion.
Thanks
Laura()- the fact that you review is enough! Thanks!
Dracozchick- thanks! Poor McGonagall! Lol I love Pirates!

Nicoletta- that's true but I still think I can come up with something better. Hummmm.... I'm senseing a strong dislike for Trelawney......nah I don't bet on my own fic that just gives stuff away and what fun is that? Ummmm can't really feel sorry for snape at the moment but yeah I wouldn't like to be stuck with Percy! I love werewolves! Lol Fluffy harmless?! Hummm I could use the grim for a prank I could..... Wow that must have rocked! I'm so jealous!
Sasinak- 5 I'd list them but I'm lazy so the forms are in chappie 6. Do you get it now? Remus was just saying wormy betrayed Lily and James, Sirius was captured then killed trying to save Harry. Thanks!
