Chapter One: Prolog-Remus Returns

Harry walked into the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom and was surprised to see that Professor Xander was not already in the classroom like he usually was. Professor Xander had temporarily replaced Dolores Umbridge once Dumbledore had banned her from Hogwarts. Luckily he had no problems doing that once Cornelius Fudge had been replaced. His behavior had been brought up at an Auror's meeting and after careful magical investigation, his communications with Voldemort were discovered. Much to Ron's elation, as well as the rest of the Weasley family, Arthur Weasley had taken Fudge's place.

All of a sudden the room silenced as a tall wizard in long gray, faded and patched rows strode into the room. Harry had been reading an issue of Quidditch Weekly, featuring an article on the Chudley Cannons when he noticed the silence. Harry almost shot out of his seat from sheer shock and joy at what was before him. There, standing at the front of the room, stood the very pleased Remus Lupin. Remus was clearly smiling straight at Harry with the biggest smile on his face anyone had ever seen.
