Disturbing Planets, Weary Werewolves, and Dealing with Malfoy
Harry's POV
Harry made it to the Divination room minutes before the bell. Ron and Hermione were waiting for him.
"Oh Harry! How was your class?" Hermione asked the minute Harry had caught up to them.
"Give the midgets detention?"
"Ron!"
The bell rang before Harry could comment and they hurried into the forest- like classroom.
As before, the students were intimidated by Firenze and seemed to group more around Professor Trelawney, who it seemed for the moment, had given up her usual misty ways in front of Firenze.
After the Trio had sat down, it was Firenze who started the class. "Professor Dumbledore has asked me to stay and teach Divination with Professor Trelawney. Upon her request we will continue the study of the centaurs knowledge of the stars. Lie back and see the strange new occurrences the heavens foretell."
The students spread out and laid down on their backs looking up at the starry ceiling. Harry's eyes automatically searched for Sirius, while Firenze started to speak again.
"The planets are starting to align in a strange manner. Mars, bringer of war, is starting to glow brighter, perhaps indicating a change of tides in the wizard war to come. Other brighter stars and planets have begun to dim, the heavens it seems predicts the return of the war ever faster.........."
Harry caught his hands trembling slightly as he still searched for the Dog Star and spotted it with a soft sigh of relief as it was still burning brightly.
"The group of stars, named the Phoenix Constellation, seems to have somehow gained more stars.............. perhaps the heavens are giving clues to the secret furture."
Harry was one of the first people out of the room when the bell rang.
"Harry," Hermione said thoughtfully, "Didn't Professor Lupin call you something about a phoenix?"
"He calls me Kenani, it means dark red in Canaanite."
Ron stared at him completely lost, "Now you've been spending too much time in the library! Mind translating?"
Harry sighed and thought back to when he had spoken to Moony about it........
(Flashback hehehe)
It had been a clear night, Moony took Harry up to the roof of the house and they looked at the stars for a while. They had done this before, when they were thinking of Sirius. It made him seem closer, when they looked at his star together.
"Hey Moony, why do you call me Kenani again?"
Remus pointed upward toward a group of stars, "See that group of stars? They make up the constellation 'the Phoenix'. It was named in a place called Canaan where they speak Canaanite. There, they used to make dark red wool that was called kinahhu, which they sold to the Greeks. They were later referred to as the Phoenikes or Phoenicians and Kenani is now the Canaanite word for dark red. I thought it suited you being connected to the stars and phoenixes."
Harry smiled, "It does........"
(end flashback)
"Harry?" Hermione asked tentatively, after Harry fell silent.
"Sorry," Harry said quickly shaking himself out of his stupor.
"You haven't heard from him, have you mate?" Ron asked worriedly.
Harry shook his head.
They walked in silence for a moment, before Ron said valiantly trying to lighten the mood, "Well Professor Potter, time to cheer up! Your new favorite class to teach is right after lunch! And-" His voice lowered dramatically, "You get to boss Malfoy around!"
Harry laughed and grinned at Ron, as they went into the Great Hall ignoring Hermione's speech on how Harry shouldn't abuse his power.
Remus' POV
Remus yawned and leaned wearily on a long piece of wood he was using as a walking stick.
He knew he should rest but after seeing the exhausted state the other watchmen were in, he just couldn't make himself leave for at least a few more hours, or until he fell unconscious.
"Remus!"
Remus shook his head, he must really need some rest, he could almost swear he heard Tonks........
"Re- oomph!"
He'd recognize that sound anywhere.
"Tonks!" he turned on his heal to find her sprawled on the ground grinning sheepishly at him.
"Hey Remus," She peered at him closely, "you don't look so good."
"Hey, I'm not the one on the ground." Remus responded good-naturedly helping her up.
"Good point, anyway you certainly gave us a scare, Harry especially."
Worry instantly sprang up in Remus' mind, "Is he alright? He's not coming here is he-"
"Relax!" Tonks said holding her hands up, "Harry's fine. He was ready to come tearing out here though. Dumbledore made him stay." She paused and fished around in her pocket and retrieved a small circular mirror. Handing it to Remus she said, "Here's a way to get in contact with him later. Dumbledore said it would flash blue when Harry can talk through it. Now go back to the camp and get some rest. Some other order members are here and they'll take care of the watch for a while."
Remus took the mirror and nodded gratefully to Tonks. Fighting back a yawn he forced his weary legs back to the camp.
Harry's POV
Harry flipped through the sixth year ministry course book uninterestedly. A few Gryffindors had already shown up, Ron and Hermione of course were sitting grinning at him in the front row in front of his desk.
A few like Dean and Seamus had spotted Harry and beamed saying, "Harry's our teacher excellent! No homework right?" Others had just given him a strange look, obviously wondering what he was doing going through the teachers books.
Draco Malfoy all but strutted into the class expecting a ministry official to be in charge, "Think you're the teacher Potter?" he sneered at Harry.
Harry clenched his fingers around the book, but thinking it would be a bad idea to punch out one of his 'students' he kept his temper.
"Until Professor Lupin returns I AM your teacher Malfoy."
Malfoy snorted muttering loudly under his breath as he walked to his seat, "A werewolf or a scar-headed madman? The ministry has really sunken low."
Harry looked over at him from the book his fingers had gone white clenching, "Malfoy, while I can't use Professor Umbridge's methods, I'm sure I could find something rather unpleasant for your detention if you continue to make comments like that And-" he continued loudly as Malfoy opened his mouth, "your opinion of the ministry is of no concern to me or anyone in power right now."
Malfoy glared at him but said nothing.
Harry smiled pleasantly and calmly placed the book down on the desk. He glanced over the classroom and didn't bother to take roll.
"Alright, because Professor Lupin isn't back yet, I'm going to be teaching this class. Wands will be used everyday and-" Harry paused and waited for the loud noise of approval that came from that statement die down,
"And I will not assign lines for detention. The ministry has written this" He held up the book, "To be taught to you. But I'm not fond of the ministry's standards and I'm not technically your teacher so" He threw the book over with the slowly growing pile in the corner, "Those of you who were members of the DA last year, I hope you have been practicing because we will be learning the spells I taught earlier to begin with. After that we will focus more on dueling or whatever Professor Lupin wants. So to start from the bottom up, lets start with the 'Expelliarmus' spell. Any volunteers?"
Half the class put up their hands.
