Chapter 3
The train soon arrived at Hogsmead station and soon Ron, Hermione, Ginny, Collin and Harry and Draco, Crabbe and Goyle were in the coaches riding towards the Castle.
Once they were all seated in their respective housed, Ron started to complain about him not being able to visit the twins at the joke shop.
"Oh Ron, do be quiet. We didn't have enough time to visit Fred and George and plus sixth and seventh years can go to Hogsmead whenever they like." Said Hermione.
"Really? But I really wanted to see them." Whined Ron
"Well we could always use the map and my cloak." Said Harry.
"Don't encourage him Harold James Potter!" Said Hermione, using Harry Full name as she playfully slapped Harry on the shoulder.
"Oww! 'Mione!" Whined Harry. Everyone around them laughed. Harry looked across at the Sytherin table and saw that Draco had been staring at him for the whole time they were at the table. As soon as Harry had looked Draco in the eyed, the blond blushed and lowered his head. 'So he has noticed me. I wonder if he likes me at all?' both of them thought.
Suddenly the doors to the great hall swung oped and all the first years were ushered in by Professor McGonagall.
As usual the sorting Ceremony was very boring and luckily it was finished in a short amount of time and they all clapped at appropriate times to hide their boredom.
Professor Albus Dumbledore stood up to make his announcement. The whole assembly went silent.
"I have a couple of announcements to make before we start the feast. First of all that the Dark Forest is out of bounds to all students. Secondly we have a new Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher." The old man paused stroking his long beard. Most of the students automatically looked over to Professor Snape who was sitting next to Professor Sprout."Slimy Git, I wonder if he finally got the position." Whispered Ron to Harry who just nodded.
Dumbledore started again. "May I introduce our new DADA teacher, Professor Faith Kingston." At this Snape's face when more white than usual and his eyes when wide in shock. Then the doors to the Great Hall opened and a tall blond haired woman walked in. She looked like Draco in a way with her long silver/blond hair and very pale skin. Around her eyed were dark and you could see when she walked past that her eyes changed colours. She wore a long blue Medievil gown and wore a gold cloak. Underneath her hair, Harry noticed she had pointed ears. Most of the Males in the room were in awe.
Especially Snape. Harry wonderd if she was part veela or something. But that didn't explain the dark colured eyes and pointy ears. She went up and sat in the spare seat next to Rubius Hagrid, the reacently appointed Care of Magical Creatures teacher, who gave her a big hug.
"Bloyme Faith, I 'aven't seen you in 'ears. You 'aven't changed a bit." Said Hagrid with the biggest smile on his face.
"Thank you Hagrid. Um... could you please let go of me? I would really like to breathe some time soon." Faith said gasping for air. Hagrid let go of her.
"Oh... Sorry." Apologised Hagrid.
"Hagrid, you haven't changed a bit!" The woman smiled warmly.
"Let's eat!" Anounced Dumbledore. At this statement, most of the students roared out in laughter and the rest just stared in awe at the meal that had just magiced itself from out of knowhere.
Harry looked at the new professor. He knew this woman. But from where and when? Harry had no idea that this woman played a very imortant role in his past, present and his future.
