A/N: Hello peoples! I have decided to change my name to Chocolate Frog, coz
I love them very, very much. Just remember that next time, ok?
Now, Chapter 5. Did everyone love my cliffy? I hope you did! Anyway, onto
the new chap!
James raised his wand as soon as they both bowed, and said, "Expelliarmus."
Harry dodged it just in time, as his thoughts were still on Cedric's lifeless body next to him in the graveyard.
He gulped and made the image get out of his mind.
"Stupefy!"
James dodged the stunning spell perfectly. "Expelliarmus."
This time, the spell hit Harry and he was pushed to the back of the room, and his very grubby wand went flying into James' open hand.
Harry sighed; relieved it was over and done with.
James grinned, then handed Harry his wand.
" You really need to clean your wand," he joked.
Harry smiled back. " I know. The only thing I polish is my broom."
James laughed. " You still need to give me a turn on it."
Harry nodded. " After classes today."
Lily rolled her eyes as she listened to the look-alikes talking about Quidditch.
She looked at the rest of the class." Can you all form pairs and practice dueling. Harmless spells only."
The class nodded and formed partners with their friends. Harry and James were still talking about the Firebolt, and how fast it can go.
" I raced a bludger once, and won. It's pretty fast," Harry commented, seeing the look in James' eye.
James clapped his hands together, like a 5-year-old. Harry snorted.
" I'm probably half your age, and your still acting like a 5-year-old? I was 5 ten years ago, and for you, a lot longer!" Harry said to James, acting disappointed.
James raised one eyebrow.
" I've been a 5-year-old for 31 years. I'm 36 now, so I've been 5 for most of my life," James said proudly.
Lily came up to them, and rolled her eyes once more. " Come on you two. No more Quidditch talk until the end of the day, ok?"
Harry and James exchanged identical grins.
" Okay," they chorused innocently.
Lily didn't seem to be buying it.
" Yeah right," Lily said. " And I'm a chimpanzee."
James grinned, appearing to have not known that. " Really? So that's where Cailyn got her looks from."
Lily narrowed her eyes, and started tickling her husband. The class stopped dueling to see their professor's laughing uncontrollably, and their nephew standing next to them, green eye's sparkling with laughter.
All 21 students laughed along with the two teachers. After a while, Lily stopped tickling, and sat down. James finally got up, grinning mischievously at Lily, and Harry.
" Had fun Uncle James? I sure did," Harry said innocently, grinning like James. " I would like to thank you and Aunt Lily for that wonderful show."
" That's it," James said, charging at him, ready to pounce. " You're going to get yourself tickled!"
" Uh oh," Harry muttered, hiding behind Lily.
Lily turned around, and started tickling him. Harry laughed as she and James tickled him, never stopping.
He could here the class laughing along, finding it amusing. Eventually, because Harry wasn't struggling, Lily and James stopped.
James poked out his tongue. " Did you have fun? I would like to thank you for that amusing and entertaining show."
Harry poked out his tongue. " Copy cat. If you tickle me again, I won't let you have a go on my Firebolt."
" Ok, you won. I'll be good, for once," James said, grumbling.
Harry grinned, and clapped his hands together. " Aren't we supposed to be dueling?"
The bell rang, signaling their next class.
Everyone shuffled out of the class, giggling about what the professors had done. Harry said goodbye to his parents, and followed Ron out the door, and outside, into the cool, moist air.
" Who teaches Care of Magical teachers?" Harry asked Ron as they followed the rest of the Gryffindors.
Ron looked at him grimly. " Hagrid. He usually gives us things like hippogriffs, (Harry snorted at this) or something really dangerous."
" So, he is nice, right?"
Ron looked at Harry closely, then nodded. " Yeah, he's nice alright. Gives you hugs that break your bloody ribs!"
Harry grinned. It sounded like the Hagrid he knew.
" So, what are doing now then?"
" Snakes, I think," Ron said grimly, as though the thought of holding a snake was horrible. " I hope I don't get bitten. I've been bitten by lots of things recently."
" Like what?" Harry asked, noting that they were nearly at Hagrid's hut on the school grounds. " Can't be that bad."
Ron snorted. " It is. I've been bitten by a flobberworm, of all things! And, a spider." He shuddered. " I hate spiders."
Harry grinned. " I don't mind spiders. It's dragons I don't like."
" Don't let Hagrid hear you say that. He loves them," Ron said as they waited for Hagrid infront of the hut.
Harry looked around.
'Nothing has changed in this world.' He thought.
Harry noticed Hermione Granger staring at him.
" Er.. Hi?"
Hermione looked at him in interest.
" Hi, I'm Hermione Granger. Are you really Professor Potter's nephew? You sure look like it. Are you enjoying Hogwarts? I have, ever since my first year. Do you like Defense Against the Dark Arts? Professor Potter says I'm a natural at defending myself against Death Eaters. How about you?" She said this very fast.
Harry's eyebrows went up in surprise. " Well, yes, I'm their nephew, yes I'm enjoying Hogwarts, yes, I like D.A.D.A, and I guess I'm a natural, I've survived Death Eaters lots of times."
Ron and Hermione gaped at him.
" Well, well, well, Professor Potty's nephew?" came a voice.
Harry knew that voice all to well. " Malfoy."
Malfoy looked at him, smirking. " Well done Potty, you got my name right. 10 points."
Harry rolled his eyes. " Well Draco, I'm sure you could be a good ferret. Any takers of turning Malfoy into a ferret?"
Malfoy walked away, scowling.
Harry grinned. " Always works."
" Really? Will it always work? Wicked!" Ron said, grinning from ear-to-ear.
" Ok, every one, gather 'round here," Hagrid's booming voice interrupted.
(A/N; I can't be bothered doing the thing that Hagrid has. I dunno how to do it!)
Harry looked at Hagrid, in his moleskin coat with the many pockets.
Hagrid smiled to him. " Harry Potter, the nephew of James and Lily Potter. Nice to meet ya atlast."
Harry grinned. " Nice to meet you too, Hagrid."
" We are going to look at Basilisks and other snakes today. Can anyone tell me what a Basilisk is?"
Harry slowly raised his hand. Of course he knew what a Basilisk was. He fought one in his second year.
" Harry?"
Harry put down his hand. " A Basilisk is a large snake that can kill you with a single bight, but quicker when you look in it's eyes."
Hagrid nodded his large, giant-like head. " Yes, that's correct. How'd ya learn that?"
Harry shrugged. " I just learnt it."
Hagrid grinned at him again, and ruffled his hair. " Smart one you are."
Harry blushed, and tried to flatten his hair. It wouldn't do as he said.
" I will give you a snake now, which are harmless, and you can keep it," Hagrid said, opening up the large crate infront of him.
In the crate, many snakes of different colours were hissing, and slithering around.
All Harry could here was ' where's my lunch' from most of the snakes.
Malfoy looked disgusted. " We have to look after one of those.. Creatures!"
Hagrid glared at him. " If ya don't, you'll fail Care of Magical Creatures and won't come next year!"
Malfoy shut his mouth.
" Everyone, come forward and choose a snake to look after for the year," Hagrid yelled over the murmur of uncertainty.
Ron and Harry were the first people to select a snake.
" Which one?" Ron murmured to himself, looking at the snakes, one by one.
' I hope they pick me,' one of the snakes hissed.' I like the guy with the orange hair.'
" What about this one, Ron," Harry said, gesturing to the one which wanted him as the owner. " It seems to like you."
Ron looked at the green and purple snake. " Yeah, I'll take it."
The snake looked relieved as it wrapped itself around Ron's wrist. Harry looked back at the snakes.
' That guy looks like he's been through a lot. I want him,' hissed a blue and yellow snake to a orange and black snake.
Harry grinned, and picked it up." I'm having this one."
His snake wrapped himself around Harry's wrist.
He looked up. ' It's like you can speak parseltongue. If you can, nod.'
Harry nodded to his new companion.
The snake hissed. ' My names Sam by the way.'
" I'm calling mine Sam. What about you, Ron?"
Ron shrugged. " I was thinking about something Australian, because I like Australia. Maybe John?"
( A/N; I Have been told John is an Australian name. I dunno if it is though.)
Harry nodded. " That's a good name for a snake."
Ron grinned. " Yeah, that's what I thought.
Harry grinned back. ' This Ron is like the one in my world. Needs to add humour into everything.'
" Everyone, you all need to look after your snakes, otherwise you will get a detention with me an' Fang in the forest," Hagrid called out as the bell went, signaling the new class.
" Come on Harry," Ron said to Harry as they left the cabin, heading towards the large castle. " We have Transfiguration now."
Harry ran to catch up with Ron's large strides. " You're too fast. I'm smaller than you, you know."
Ron slowed down and chortled. " You're smaller than some first years you know, Harry."
Harry poked his tongue out. " So? I'm taller than my cousins atleast."
Hermione came rushing up. " Hello again. Look, this is my snake, Stephanie. Hagrid told me it was a girl. What's that one called?"
" Sam," Harry answered, stroking the small snake's head.
Sam hissed happily as he did this.
Ron rolled his eyes. " Aren't you maybe a bit, curious about everything, Hermione?"
Hermione glared at him as they all entered the familiar Transfiguration classroom. " Well atleast I know something, Ron."
Hermione went away in a huff as they took their seats at the back of the room.
Professor McGonagall then entered the room.
"Before I start this lesson, can Mr Potter please report to the headmasters office," she said, lips in a thin line.
As Harry walked past McGonagall, she whispered," The password is Chocolate Frog."
Harry walked slowly out the door, and headed towards Dumbledore's office.
When he got to the gargoyle Harry said gloomily, wondering what Dumbledore was going to tell him," Chocolate Frog."
(A/N; I'm missing out the stairs, I'm trying to finish this before school!)
As he knocked on the large oak door, he could hear people inside talking quietly.
" Come in," came Dumbledore's loud voice, secretly laughing.
Harry opened the door to find a large surprise.
To be continued......
A/N: Another cliffy on the 5th chapter. Ahhhh, revenge is sweet. I gotta go to school now, damn!!!!! Bye, till next time. Lol. And remember, Chocolate Frog from now, folks!
