A/N Sorry for the long wait, but I got sick again and one of our computers broke. So anyway I'm getting better, and here's a chappie for Valentine's Day!
Healing and First Lessons
Harry's POV
Harry felt a blade pressed to his throat.
"Soon young Gryffindor, I will have my revenge."
Harry jerked awake. Hesitantly he touched his neck with trembling fingers and winced when they encountered a shallow cut.
Untangling himself from a cocoon of blankets, Harry quietly went to the bathroom and looked at his reflection in the mirror. He face was pale save for the scar on his forehead and the new cut on his neck.
I definitely need to talk to Ron and Hermione.
Remus' POV
Remus opened his eyes slowly, blinking against the light. It was morning.
With a soft groan he lifted himself up from the blankets he was lying on. There were bandages around his chest and arm. He slowly got to his feet.
Remus looked around and spotted Tiernan talking to a small group of uninjured werewolves. He threw his cloak around his shoulders and headed toward him.
Tiernan spotted him and dismissed the group, "How are you feeling Lupin?"
Remus stopped himself from shrugging as a sharp pain raced through his body as he tensed his shoulders, "I've been hurt worse, and you?"
"I'll survive." Tiernan said gruffly.
Remus looked around the encampment. More than half the pack was lying on blankets covered in bandages, while the others ran around distributing food and water.
"How many losses?" Remus asked sadly.
"None yet," at Remus' surprised look he chucked grimly, "You've spent too much time around humans, Lupin. You're forgetting how strong your own kind is." He sobered quickly, "Those damn nuncamys did a lot of damage though. Those who aren't helping the wounded are keeping watch. Our pack will not survive another attack."
"I'll stand watch, let some of your pack rest a while." Remus said softly.
Tiernan nodded, "Thank you Lupin." Remus turned to leave when he continued, "Lupin, What you did for my pack will not be forgotten. No matter what happens in the future, you will be considered part of our pack, you and your cub."
Remus smiled, "Thank you." Then he grabbed some water and headed out to replace one of the watchmen.
Back to Harry's POV
~Breakfast~
Harry, Ron and Hermione sat close together in the Great Hall as Harry told them about his dream and showed them the healing cut on his neck.
"Got to tell you mate," Ron said when Harry finished, "You've got the prize for the worst dreams ever."
Hermione looked thoughtful, "We'll have to look in the Library on spirits, maybe there's a way to keep this spirit away from Harry.........."
Harry and Ron shared a despairing look, "The first day back and we're already in the Library." Ron groaned, then he smiled at Harry, "So Professor, who are you teaching today?"
Harry glared at him, "Don't call me Professor, I'm just subbing till mo- err Professor Lupin gets back. Anyway I got first years today."
"Ah the cheeky little snot rags," Ron said smirking, "Have fun."
Hermione glared at Ron, "Ron! Don't call them that."
Harry, having the feeling yet another argument coming on, said quickly and in a stern voice, "Knock it off you two or I'll put you in detention."
There was a moment of shocked silence then they broke out laughing.
Ron and Hermione walked with Harry to the DADA classroom then split up to go to Herbology, Ron calling back as they left, "Have fun Professor Potter!"
Harry rolled his eyes and went inside. On the desk was a large pile of books with a note on top.
Harry-
These are the standards the ministry has insisted be used for Hogwarts Defense classes. I trust you will deal with them accordingly.
Professor Dumbledore
Harry gaped at the large books, which were even thicker, then the ones Hermione read. 'Deal with them accordingly?'
Students started to fill in, so Harry shoved the note into his bag and leaned against desk looking down at his schedule.
Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff first years in the morning and then his own Gryffindor and Slytherin sixth years in the afternoon.
'Great I have to deal with Malfoy on my first day.'
Harry waited until the bell rang and the last first year had taken his seat before starting, "Welcome to Defense Against the Dark Arts. My name is Harry and I'll be teaching you until Professor Lupin returns. Now before we start any questions?" Harry inquired trying to think of where to start.
Finally a brave Ravenclaw raised her hand. Harry nodded at her and glanced down at the list of names, "Yes...... Sarah?"
"Are you THE Harry Potter?"
Harry held back a grimace, "I'm the only Harry Potter I know."
A Hufflepuff raised his hand next, "Is Professor Lupin really a werewolf."
"Yes, but he takes a potion on full moons so he can't hurt anyone."
While the first years glanced at each other worriedly, Harry glanced down at the large ministry books on the table and opened the first year volume. Two pages in he put it down in disgust as it was written like Professor Binn's boring drawl.
Harry took a deep breath and started to talk, still not used to all the eyes watching him, "This," he said holding up the thick book in one hand with a little difficulty, "Is what I'm supposed to be teaching you." He let the book drop on the table with a dull resounding thud.
He smiled at the worried looks on the first years faces, "However, I'm not very fond of Ministry's standards, and I am not technically your teacher so," Harry picked up the book and threw it calmly over his shoulder where it landed in a dusty corner (as the house elves refused to clean it when Umbridge was there).
The first years gasped in shock, then leaned forward attentively as Harry continued, "Until I get a chance to speak with Professor Lupin I'm going to teach you basic defense spells. However," Harry continued in a louder voice as the first years started to whisper excitedly, "Please don't use these spells on anyone unless necessary or" He smiled and lowered his voice, "At least don't get caught."
Harry glanced up at the clock, "Ok, next class we're going start on the expelliarmus spell. It's a disarming spell that will send the other person's wand to you. Alright, anything else?" He looked around the room.
Another tentative hand rose, "Should we call you Professor?"
The bell rang, and Harry breathed a small sigh of relief, "See you next lesson."
Harry waited until all the first years had left before grabbing his bag and heading to Divination.
