This is not a new chapter but it is edited. My gosh, I re-read it and couldn't believe how bad it was! And I know Arithmetic was wrong ((arithmacy) I spelled it right then spell checked it and I doubt my work a lot and so don't ask what I was thinking. It's fix a long with everything else. I will hopefully have a new chappie posted by the end of this month so sorry didn't realize its been so long

Chapter/Part: 19
The next morning came quite early at four am for a few people. Once the trio was ready to go run and in the common room making sure someone had a watch and that it was set so they wouldn't be late, they headed to the lake. Once they got down to the lake they started stretching out (wouldn't do to get tense.) After they ran through all the stretches they started to jog around the lake. The lake was a mile long (they asked Albus.) So the plan was to jog the first lap run the next two and a half and jog the last one and half. Five for Ron and Hermione a day and for Harry until they got a handle on his stress was only suppose to do five miles one day, and two and a half in the morning the next day and the other two and a half later if he had time and cleared it by one of the 'adults'. Meaning he could sleep in later than Ron and Hermione on the two and a half days unless they started to get sick which didn't look like it would happen.
Severus also got up at four. Tonks, Remus, Minerva, Albus and himself had decided they would alternate the days they got up to watch the kids. Not that they didn't trust them not to get up and work on their exercise. They did one reason it was part their choice. Second reason they understood and were responsible to be in charge of themselves. But they feared Harry would push his self and not trying to but bending the rules until they break. (When you get injured seriously in a sport its not no ones fault but yourself as 'everyone' bends the rules and they break.) Which was one reason they decided to get up and watch; the other was also for Ron and Hermione. Yes they could handle themselves better, but it would not be long until they start pushing more themselves. And the last reason as it was early they shouldn't technically be on their own. Dangerous times sucked the reason why they would not tell the trio that they were being watched until it came time to. So he watched them do their stretches and then start to jog. He did not know what routine they would use. They (the groups as a whole) did not discuss what they were to do only five miles should be done a day.
After the run, they stretched down (like an extra cool down). Ron, Hermione, and Harry went back to the castle to take showers and get ready for the day. It was nearing six-thirty when they meet back in the common room meaning they had to grab their books and run down to the Dungeons. As Severus was watching them that morning he had the lesson. It would depend on who's watching that day as to who had the lessons to make it fair instead of having another wake up earlier than they would have too. Severus wasn't surprised when it was six-thirty-five and three teenagers walked into his room almost breathless. He knew they would be late it was the first day of school it was understandable. No he was not a patient man not in the least but he could understand things and when they happened he could hold his patients or loss them. Classroom time was class and nothing was tolerated with 25 or more students at the same time. Anything could happen if they got out of hand especially in potions.
Three kids who have to grow up more than anyone should ever have to and at their age could be understood. Plus they are in training and training is hard and needs to be or it wouldn't be called training. But training for about two weeks and having to change routine and add school would be hard and stressful on anyone. Meaning while the three of them also had to change routine so did the teachers or in the case of this training advisors.
"Sorry we're late sir." Harry spoke. He nor Ron or Hermione fumbled for an excuse it would not matter. Which they learned quickly, if your late you're late!
"It's fine. I take it you did your stretches and five miles." Severus needed to play innocent as did all the adults.
"Yes, sir." Hermione answered.
"Good. Well let's get started. We will have to take a Saturday to do the practical on this potion as it takes half a day."
"Ok, sir do you want it this Saturday or next Saturday?" Ron asked.
"Well your not suppose to find this out until next week but next weekend will be a hogsmeade weekend. So you will have to think weather you want to miss the first one, or do you want to go. I will also speak the others to see what would be better than well talk."
"That's fine, sir." All three answered.
Severus had a feeling that he would be hearing more sirs than he had since the being of the training. Yes they did stick to formal address in training unless it was a hard topic and to ease the tension they would slip to casual. They tried formal all the advisors did but having three teens tense and on edge trying to learn was not a good thing. When they keep to casual they wouldn't be as tense and open up more. But now that school was in the less time they saw each other on casual time and more on formal. They could only hope everything went fine and everyone makes it.
After they finished brewing narro which is a simpler version of the truth serum the trio headed to breakfast. (although they didn't make the truth potion for the reason it took half the day) It had started five minutes ago. Not that it mattered much. For breakfast it didn't matter when you went as long as you were on time to class and were there before nine-thirty. Lunch was set up where each grade had a set lunch time that could overlap with another lever through from eleven to one. Then dinner everyone was there or suppose to be at six.
"Hey guys I didn't see you in the tower." Dean said as they sat down.
"Ya we weren't there." Ron said not knowing what to say. They had not thought this part out.
"Where's Ginny?" Hermione asked.
"Ginny's was still in bed when I got up. So I woke her." Jasmine filled her in after eavesdropping.
"Thanks."
"So are you going to tell me where you guys were?" Dean asked.
"No we are not. Now hush it so we can eat." Hermione growled.
"Hey guys." Ginny announced her arrival.
"Hi Gin, Glad to see you up." Ron said sarcastically.
"Ron hush plus she is up most of the time. I wasn't there to make sure she was up today. Sorry Gin." Hermione scolded.
"It's ok. Where were you?"
"Working on something." Hermione answered Dean had left already so he wouldn't question it.
"Oh ok." Ginny said puzzled.
Once they had their schedules and we done eating they headed to transfiguration. No sense in hanging with everyone else. Once in the class room they did farther research on their schedules. They noticed on Monday they had Ablus before school, Tuesday with Remus, Wednesday with Snape, Thursday Tonks, Friday Minerva. Then Saturday was quiz/test times and Sunday was regrouping. After Breakfast they had Transfiguration, then DADA. After lunch Potions (yes Ron was in potions) Herbology after a break and then arithmacy (Ron and Harry got caught up) on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Then Tuesday and Thursday Care of Magical Creatures and Astronomy. They were a few of the only ones who had packed schedules still as after fifth year most studied only what they had to for their field of career. But in the end it would help train them. To be able to fight with anyone you have to have knowledge that goes with it!
Transfiguration was easy enough to sleep through the theory. Not that they did. Actually they researched homework for their last transfiguration lesson. As they were in school the advisors did not think giving them double homework would be a great thing along with their other classes. So they had the last lessons to finish until the following summer. DADA was the same. Although when they were called upon they knew what they were talking about and answered correctly but again they did homework for the DADA lesson. They went to lunch and ate some. Then as soon as they were finished headed to potions. When they got there they were the only ones there.
"Professor Snape, What should we tell our classmates when they ask were we are at in the morning?" Hermione asked.
"Let me talk to the others. We'll come up with something. I'll give Harry a detention and tell him tonight. Ok?"
"Yes sir. So I should 'bad mouth' you?" Harry asked.
"I think not, but when I start talking about your dad talk back. Silly. 'bad mouth' me?"
"Ok. Well hey I was going to take my free pass."
"Huh uh. We'll see about that."
Potions was more fun. As they had the theory for a ten minute frame and then they made the potion which they(trio) made a few days back. Ron and Harry forgot some ingredients to make it believable. Snape came over and started saying how bad Harry's dad was at the subject and Harry said no he wasn't and that he only said that because he was jealous which ended him in detention. After potions they went to herbology. That was better as they were actually learning. The trio went to the common room to get some of their homework done. Arithmacy was a new world for Harry and Ron as they hadn't been in it for the past five years. Hermione just loved the subject and hung on every word. After class they went back down to the common room and did more homework. It was looking like they would never have any time to themselves again. They went to dinner but Harry didn't eat a lot but made it look like he did. Ron stuffed his face like he hadn't eaten all day and Hermione ate like she always did nice slow bits. After dinner Hermione and Ron went back to the common room again to do homework. Harry went to Severus office.
"Hi sir." Harry announced his arrival.
"Harry we are in private at the moment you don't have to be formal."
"Ok."
"Well we decided if you guys don't mind telling people that you are doing exercises in the mornings that's fine. No one would know what time you got up to do them or how long it took."
"Ok. We'll do that."
"Are you sure?"
"Ya, it's no problem."
"Proper English please! If that's not a problem then its taken care of. Care to tell me why you didn't eat much all day?"
"What?"
"You were at all meals. Of course Hermione would never let you miss. But you didn't eat much and I doubt you went to the kitchen with all the homework you got."
"Oh, well... well you see I just wasn't hungry."
"Ok. Although you went through the trouble to look like you were eating. I want you to eat more tomorrow. If not you'll be hearing from me and I will be watching you like a hawk. Don't make me mistrust you. You will not like the consequence."
"Yes uncle. As this is detention and if I left early it would look suspicious if I left, so can I please work on my homework now?"
"Yes, ask if you need help." It wasn't a demand but it was there for Harry to take advantage of.
Harry did his homework and then went back to the common room. Hermione and Ron were just getting finished. They said their goodnights and went to bed after all they had to be up early.

Hey that was a little longer.
Okay more of Destiny next chapter along with Draco.
Okay now I know this is like a little late in the story but as I won't have to time edit any of my work until I'm done writing the entire story as you can already see it usually takes me forever to get an update. So if someone wants to edit it email me starangel2106yahoo.com. But if no one does I will defiantly do it after I'm done with the story. My goal would probably be to repost it then.
Also most of the stuff is my opinion if you can't tell. So you don't have to agree on it. But if you look closely I hope you can see the truth as to how I came up w/ it. Also the bending the rules part I got from 'Crazy Horse Electric' ( book by Chris Crutcher). But I do believe in it a lot! Also Severus and Harry had to come along way Harry is mature enough to understand the happenings and why Severus treated him the way he did! And Sirius died so Harry looks at Severus as a sort of replacement!
Anyway thanks for reading I know it's hard, as I get excited when writing.
