Part/Chapter: 16
Everyone was up and at the table by seven-thirty and at the breakfast table by eight (even Harry) and down by eight-thirty. While they ate the talked about the day ahead Serverus was going to let Harry participate but he had to say if he started to feel bad and then he had to go to bed. If he didn't do that and they found hints that he wasn't feeling well let's just say it wasn't going to be dealt with kindly and Serverus would turn into Snape.
For the days plan was Potions first then Defense Against the Dark Arts afterwards. For potions they were going to the first lab. Then DADA would be held in one of the classrooms. Potions would start at nine. Lunch would be held in the potions room at twelve-thirty. Then Dinner would be held in dining room at six as Minerva was coming and they didn't know if Herms and Jets were also but guessed they would as they hadn't for awhile.
In Potions they made a hazel/green potion that if you throw it at someone it would make them blind for two hours plenty of time for the thrower to get away or to get them transported to the ministry. The reason for the coloring is as hazel/green is not an eye color {1} it makes it for any eye color. The potion Verde {2} would be good in battle if you had enough for at least two people. For it to work you only needed to use half of the vial on the attacker or victim. There was also an antidote but they would have to cover that later as it (antidote) took over nine hours to make. Verde only took four and a half. The last hour it had to simmer and you had to stir it the last half hour every five minutes.
After they had it on simmer they sat down with Tonks and Remus at a table and ate lunch. While they ate Harry, Ron, and Hermione were talking about the lessons and that they should continue after school had started. While Tonks, Serverus, and Remus talked about the teachers. Leann was going to teach muggle studies and Jason was going to help Tonks and fill in for Hagid when he left. Remus was also going to the school to help once in awhile with DADA and to help with muggle studies and of course go on missions when Albus needed him too. After all he had nothing better to do besides sit in the house waiting for something to happen.
After they finished lunch the kids got back to their cauldrons. They had half an hour until it was all the way done. Harry watched his and was looking threw one of his remaining books. Hermione was doing basically the same. Ron on the other had didn't have a book with him but he did have a carrying (wizard) chess game on him. So he played by his self. Remus and Tonks stayed for ten more minutes and finished their conversation then they went to their rooms. Serverus looked in on his own potion. Harry was going to need more dream potion soon and Serverus really didn't feel like having to make it the day he needed it. After he checked it he looked at his charges. He was glad to see them doing something other than talking and goofing off. Even Ron he approved of as chess was strategy and as strategy is needed in wars and even in life it was good practice. From what he had heard which wasn't much and understood was that no one could bet him so Serverus challenged Ron to a game. After Serverus enlarged the board they got settled {3}.
Harry and Hermione both stopped to watch for about five minutes. After ten minutes it was time to take the potion off the fire and clean up. They were told to write on all the ways they could of how to use the Verde while they cleaned. There was no limit. After they (kids) had finished cleaning up it was time for DADA. So Serverus put the game off to the side so it wouldn't get bumped. After dinner or if lessons went on after dinner then after DADA they could move it to a common room and play.
DADA went smoothly although they were not finished before dinner. For dinner Herms and Jets did come. They had a silent meal. The kids still had to finish with the days lessons. While they were doing that Serverus would explain to Minerva what was going on in the round about way and ask for help. He did hope she would agree it would help immensely.
The rest of the DADA lessons where a little more rough but they got done before nine. It had been a very long day. But it was filled with knowledge and no one complained. It was better to get knowledge and be prepared than not to. Right? They even where going to ask for them to continue after school started, even Ron was all for it. Of course Minerva thought it was a great idea.
Even though the kids had homework did have homework in both lessons they did not go work on it. Not that it was due tomorrow anyway. They did have other lessons to work on too. Tomorrow was going to be animagus study along with physical and sword combat lessons. Then Monday they will go back to potions and defense against the dark arts. The schedule of start lessons at nine, lunch at twelve-thirty, and dinner at six then finish lessons if need be hopefully be done around nine. It would be hard but they only had two weeks to work on it and it would need to get done.
After they found everyone else in the main common room they sat down. Serverus had moved the chess board when he settled down after his talk with Minerva. So Ron and him continued there game. Everyone sat around watched and talked in low whispers. It was a long game. Longer than most of the games either of them had played. Ron even enjoyed himself and he didn't think he would because it was Snape. He had yet to understand the Snape was in public a different person than Serverus in private. The game was done by nine-thirty and then the kids decided to go get ready for bed.
"Thank you, sir. That was an enjoyable game. No ones been able to stump me in a long time."
"You should play Albus tomorrow. It would be an interesting game. He's the only one who can bet me well that besides yourself that is. And please call me Serverus when we in we're not in lessons or at school in public. That goes for you to Hermione."
"Okay we'll try si...Se..s..Serverus." Hermione answered for them both.
"Hey Professor Dumbledore wanna play chess tomorrow?" Ron asked and everyone laughed.
"Well see. And why don't you call me Albus when we're in private after all you are my grandchild friends."
"Well try." Ron said. He didn't bother with a name as Hermione had such a hard time.
"Well I guess I'll be the one to ask as these two people won't. We we're wondering if we could continue 'extra' lessons after school started." Harry said.
"Yes. We think they would be beneficial." Hermione added.
"You would think that. Wouldn't you? But we do think it would be a good idea. Even if you don't help us we'll do it ourselves." Ron added more on.
"Well have to think about it and decided if we do it how and the rest of the details so we'll get back to you on that. Okay?"
"Okay thanks." They answered together.
Harry was fine although he was extremely tired. Serverus gave him the dream potion (even though Harry wanted to start on his homework at ten thirty) and left to go talk some more with his friends. They agreed it was for the best that they did lessons the way they were at the moment. Then they talked about the kids' ideas well it had been on every ones minds anyway.
"I think we can do it. We all have different free periods and we could ask Jason and Leann for help to there." Minerva said.
"So your proposing we do it during free periods?" Remus asked.
"Yes. We wouldn't have to do it everyday."
"I think that sounds good to me." Tonks said. "Me too." Remus added.
"I agree." Albus said.
"Hey I think its great too." Jets added.
"Dido." Herms said. "Well I'm leaving now have a goodnight."
"I'm gonna go to. See you sometime soon."
"Bye" Everyone else said.
"I like the idea to. But I'm going to add onto it and tell me what you think. Ok we'll give them Monday off that way we have our time to grade 'all' the students papers. Then Tuesday they will have all of us who is going to help them and tell them the agenda for the week and start off that weeks lessons as you Minerva said we have different free periods. Remus and Jason could skip around with all of us and help us all out when ever they feel like it. Okay so Wednesday they'll go to only two teachers. Then Thursday they will go to other ones. Friday the same and then Saturday they will have grandfather and they rest of us again. We can close the week hopefully and grandfather can add his knowledge to the pack."
"So I'm going to help?" Albus asked of course with his twinkle.
"Of course thought we had the hard work and that we were going to be there vents? Oh no dear friend you are joining in that way they can't like any of us the best." Minerva answered for Serverus.
"What? They said they wanted to continue training." Tonks asked.
"Yes but think about that. They want it but we will be working them hard and they may be prepared but not that prepared. They will work hard every week but they're will be trying time and those times are really going to try everyone of us. But with the war its for the best."
"Agree." Serverus said.
"I like all of it. Sounds great." Remus said.
"Me to. I ready to get myself prepared." Tonks said.
"Okay. I guess I'll get dragged into all of this." Albus said.
"Only one problem." Serverus said
"What's that?" Remus asked for all of them.
"Harry's been sick on and off right? Well my guess is its stress that's the only thing I can relate it to. I'm going to test his blood the net time he get a fever but I'm pretty sure its stress."
"Yes. It may as well be. Well as it is late lets sleep on all of this and think how were going to deal with that and everything else. Sound good?" Albus said.
"Yup. I'm tired!" Serverus said.
"Me too." Remus supplied.
"Well I suppose I am." Tonks said in a childish voice and big smile.
"Well you might not now Tonks but I know I'm exhausted. And I have to teach tomorrow and I'm not ready so I'm gonna go to bed now! Night." Minerva said heading towards the stairs. She loved the orange room and as she reached it she dropped into bed. She didn't feel like changing.
Everyone basically did the same thing. It was going to be a long time before anyone had a calm life again.

Okay. {1} Green or Hazel are not technically real eye colors. They are a mixture of blue and brown that's why most of those who have those color and have them change with their moods.
{2} I don't know Latin nor do I know much of any language so I mix languages up to what I do know. Verde mean color in Italian
{3} As the manor is protected meaning Ron, Hermione, and Harry can use magic but they do not use it except for lessons as its still summer.
Sorry. I'm tired or I would continue on to the next day.
Next chappie I think a little of Sunday and then I think I'm skipping to the start of school. That's my plan anyway. But I don't know when I'll get it up.
Good? Bad? Please Review!
