Disclaimer: I do not own anything of this that's why this is fanfiction ok?
A/N: by the way Sirius didn't die in the battle with Bellatrix everything happens the same way but Sirius didn't die. He is left unconscious but you already know didn't die but for a tiny moment Harry thinks he's dead and that's why he goes after Bellatrix after the fight and everything makes sense I hope. This all happen after the year ends (July)
CHAPTER X: The new professors
"Settle down class" Professor Patterson said softly, her eyes on a book. She looked at us and smiled, which seemed to warm up the classroom. Considering that we were in the middle of October, it was saying a lot. The class had been normal; Professor Patterson allowed us to use our wands and we had been learning many new spells that we hadn't even heard of before. We learned many things because we had much more time that usual as we no longer had divination or History of Magic. The professor stood up. "Today I want us to study a subject that you have seen before, but more in-depth. Today even we will not use our wands," we all groaned "We aren't going to use our books either." Most of us smiled. She waved her wand and the curtains closed. "Today I want to review 'werewolves'. I understand that you didn't look at the subject for too long. But I also know that you had a teacher who was a werewolf." She smiled. "First of all what is a werewolf?"
Hermione's hand went up immediately with some other hands including my own. "Mr. Grant!" A chubby boy stood up.
"The werewolves are some sort of wolves, but they are only wolfs for three days in the full moon, the others day of the month they are normal people,"
"Ten points to Ravenclaw." She smiled. "Now let's get you to think ... Are werewolves bad or good?" Most of the students put their hands up, ready to say their opinions. "Mister Longbottom?" Neville stood up.
"They are good,"
"And that's because?"
"Because..... Because it's.... because it's not their fault that they are what they are!" The professor smiled.
"Does anyone have a contrary opinion to Mister Longbottom?" Neville gulped. Most of the students put their hands down. "Miss Carlton," A girl from Ravenclaw stood up.
"I think that they aren't good as Neville say, I mean they don't have full control of themselves making them a danger to other people," She said seriously.
"Does any one have another point of view or something extra to say?" Hermione stood. "Hermione?"
"Well the werewolves aren't good," most of us looked at Mione with surprise. "But they aren't bad either. Like Neville said, it's not their fault being what they are," Neville smiled. "But I do think that if the werewolf doesn't take control during the transformation then they are a danger to other people as Fablia said. Professor Lupin took the Wolfs Bane potion to make himself harmless, I think that's how a werewolf should be," Hermione sat again leaving some of us very confused.
"Ten points to Gryffindor and 5 points to Ravenclaw," The professor said simply. She looked for a book in her desk. She grabbed it and put it in Hermione's desk. "Miss Granger touched the point I wanted to look at," She smiled to Mione who blushed. "There's a very important lesson for you to face the world," All of us looked at her expectantly. "There are no good people as there are no bad people. Every good person has something bad within themselves; every bad person has something good within themselves,"
"The world is not black and white it's a mixture of grays," Hermione said softly.
"Exactly, ten points to Gryffindor." She waved her wand and the curtains open again. "Class dismissed!" We all left confused by the exception of Hermione she was just frowning. We headed ourselves to the Wand less magic class.
Dan was doing great. We had been working on relaxing in the first few classes, then we started on levitating small objects like paper and other stuff like that. Today we were supposed to do something great. At least, that's was the Huffs said.
"Hello Guys how are you?" Dan asked from her desk some students replied some others just limited themselves too sit coughs Slytherins coughs
"Well today we will start with something a little bit harder, which I don't expect everyone to accomplish." She stood up and waved her hands. The desk in front of us disappeared, leaving all the things on it to fall to the floor. "Stand up!" She said. All the students stood up grabbing their things. She waved her hands dismissively and the chairs also disappeared. Then some wooden cubes appeared in front of us. They were small. "Grab your cubes!" We all grabbed them. "You may sit on the floor. Leave your bags at the back please!" We took the bags to the back of the room, and then we all sat on the floor making a circle. "That's better!" She said excitedly.
"Professor?" A Slytherin sneered.
"Yes Blaise?"
"What do you propose we do today?"
"Make the cubes disappear," She stated. We all looked at her confused. "You can move things, now I want you to make them disappear,"
"And how do we do that Professor?" Hermione asked.
"Relax and imagine the space were the cube is...but without the cube obviously." A cube appeared in front of her. "You can snap your fingers if you want, or clap your hands, or wave them. As you like," She snapped her fingers and the cube disappeared. "Begin!" You could hear the snapping fingers and the clapping in the room, and you could see the constant waving of hands. I waved my hand, but the cube moved. Ron snapped his fingers and nothing happened. Hermione sat with her eyes closed, and every once in a while she would open them and say 'Disappear!', but nothing happened. 30 minutes passed and no one had accomplished the taks. "Ok stop!" We all looked at her. She looked at all the students and her eyes stopped on Malfoy. "Draco, stand up please!" He stood up. She grabbed one of the student's cubes and gave it to him. "Close your eyes!" She instructed and grabbed the cube. "Open them!" He opened his eyes and raised an eyebrow.
"And that's helping me how?" She smiled.
She gave him the cube again "You already saw your hand without the cube, just close your eyes again and imagine what you saw before," he closed his eyes but nothing happened. "I know you can do it Draco" He opened his eyes and rolled them He closed them again and from a minute to the other the cube disappeared. He opened his eyes slowly.
"I did it?"
"Yup" She said happily "Now all of you, separate into pairs and do the same thing I just did with Draco. Draco come here"
The class ended and most of the class – including Neville, Ron, Mione and I – had accomplished to make the little cube disappear. We had potions next and during that class, our wand less magic class was discussed the most, with the Slytherins in the discussions too.
