"And this, my dear, shall be your classroom," Lupin through back the heavy oaken doors inviting her to enter the dimly lit room. "Don't be put off by the apparent disuse my dear, the headmaster assured me that this room would be perfect for your purposes." Bellona stepped through the door and surveyed what would become her domain for the next semester at least. She smiled at what she found.
"Worry not Master Lupin, I find it most pleasing."
"Of that fair lady, I am glad." Lupin said, somewhat sadly. With a smile Bellona began to explore her new rooms when she turned again to converse with Lupin, he had gone.
It took Bellona the better part of the day to transfer the rest of her things to the grounds, despite the aid of the death pulled coaches and y the time the unopened boxes had reached her classroom, accompanied by a somewhat sour, un-kept little man, it was and hour past noon. With a sigh she began to unpack the many wooden crates that now litter her classroom floor.
.........
She was interrupted a short time latter by the appearance of a cat, this was followed shortly thereafter by them appearance of a rather wild haired girl.
"Hello, you must be the new Professor. My name's Hermione Granger. I'll be taking your class this semester." Bellona's eyes flicked over the girl's shoulders as two more young humans arrived in the doorway.
"Bloody 'ell Mionie, we've been chasing you all over the castle."
"Not to worry Ron, Professor Blodwen found Crookshanks for me." Both boys look past Hermione's shoulder at the figure that was quietly observing them. Ron swallowed noisily.
"Hello," the dark haired boy who had not yet spoken said, taking a step into the room he extended a hand "My name's Harry Potter, and this is Ron Weasily, he gestured to the red head who was by now behind him. Bellona nodded to them both.
"I am pleased to make your acquaintance boys. Ms Granger has already informed my that she will be one of my students for this semester, are you two gentlemen also taking my class?"
"Yeah, we both are," Ron answered "It's a good thing you ain't got no text books, I don't think I could carry any more, 'specially with all the ones we got for Potions."
"My class does not require text books Mr. Weasily, because everything I will teach you is up here." Ron watched as the strange, cloaked woman gestured to her head. Harry looked around the classroom, as he suddenly realized they were standing amidst a sea of crates.
"Do you need any help unpacking your things Professor?" Harry asked, dodging a kick from Ron. Bellona smiled slightly beneath her hood "Only if I won't be taking you students away from any other duties you have to perform today."
"Oh no Professor," Hermionie glared at Ron as he opened his mouth to protest, "We'd love to help." Hermione reached across and grabbed Ron wrist. "What can we do?"
