Disclaimer: O.K. Slowly I'm getting used to the idea that I will never *
sob * ever *sob * own Harry Potter or one of his mates.. But it's still
hard, so please, don't mention it!!!!
As Snape has a role in this chapter (and makes a fool of himself, just like
Draco (again) * grins evilly *) I'm dedicating it to Lucius Sikilmituile,
I'm also doing this because, without her, this fic wouldn't be on the net.
So, this is for you Lusiki (^_^), I hope you like it, you really are the best and I hope the project (meanwhile projects) we have planned with Kira come true. (One is an adaptation of Star Wars under the category Parody/Humor which will be called HogWar(t)s.. but it will be written in german.
Chapter Six: DADA teacher surprise
The next morning Hermione met her friends on top of the staircase which lead to the Great Hall.
"Good morning Hermione, how was your first night with Malfoy?" (Harry throws warning glare to every reader who may have perverted thoughts about his comment).
"Did he torture you too much?" Ron asked while they descended the stairs. Hermione simply shook her head.
"See boys, I told you she would be all right!" Ginny said grinning.
They were about to enter the Great Hall, when Hermione stopped dead, turned left on her heels and began to run towards a young woman about the age of twenty, who had shoulder long, auburn hair, dark green, sparkling eyes and was currently talking to a portrait.
"ALEX!!!!" they heard Hermione shout. The young woman turned around and, seeing her cousin, smiled broadly.
"Hello Mione!" she said with a strong american accent while they hugged tightly. Then Hermione waved her friends over to them and introduced the four to each other.
"It's really nice to meat you Alex. But, excuse the question, how come this happened. I thought you wanted to become an Auror.. At least, that's what Hermione told us!" Ron inquired.
"Well, I absolved my Auror training last year, but, when I received a letter asking me to become DADA teacher here at Hogwarts about four weeks ago, curiosity got the best of me. Besides, this is the perfect way to see my favourite cousin more often."
"You're really going to be our new DADA teacher? Cool!" Hermione exclaimed.
"What do we have here?" a voice drawled beside them , "Already trying to get new members for your fan club Potter?"
"Shut up Malfoy!" Harry hissed .
"So you are Draco Malfoy, the self centered bastard?" Alex asked looking at him inquisitively.
"The one and only!" Draco answered bowing gentlemanlike in front of what he thought to be a very atractive young woman. "Hmmm," he thought, "she looks familiar to me.".
"My name is Alexandra Davies. I'm Hermione's cousin," she explained offering him her hand.
"Oh_My_God!" Draco thought while shaking it (A/N.: I know, I know. It's totally OoC for Draco to shake a muggleborn's hand. Let's say it's due to his momentary brain breakdown because he was reminded of his embarassement last night.)
"Malfoy read the letter I wrote to you yesterday, without asking me of course, he doesn't seem to know anything about the privacy of correspondance. Anyway, he thought you were my boyfriend."
"Well, if I was a boy I'd love to have you as a girlfriend, but I'm a girl."
"And you already have a boyfriend," Hermione added.
"Well, he can't be very much of a wizard if he's in love with a mudblood!" Draco said with a sneer.
"Better a mudblood who is loved by someone, than a despised, arrogant, pretentious pureblood," the woman shot back.
"What did I just hear?" a man with black, greasy hair and bad teeth. very bad teeth. who had just been walking past them asked angrily, "I don't tolerate my students insulting each other, 20 points from Gryffindor!"
"First," Alex answered, "I insulted him in self defence, and second, you can't take points away from Gryffindor because of me."
"And why not if I may know it?"
Alex was just about to answer when Dumbledore approached them.
"Ahhh, Professor Snape, I see you have already met our new DADA teacher?"
"New. DADA teacher?" Snape asked confused while Draco paled (A/N He didn't have a good start with her).
"Yes, miss Davies here is going to be our new DADA teacher. She just graduated from the Hellmouth Auror Academy also known as the H.A.A in Sunnydale California. I believe your nephew also studied there?"
"Yes!" Professor Snape answered proudly, "He was second best of his class and that academy is the world's most demanding after all!"
"So you are Zack Seimoure's uncle?" Alex asked
"You know him?"
"Yes!" Alex answered lifting her right hand showing a beautiful ring, "We are betrothed!"
"W-what? Snape asked his face turning a nice shade of green, "You are the one who finished first of the class and fought 12 vampires in her final exam?"
"Oh, please, don't remind me of that! That whole day was horrible. I had a headache and my menstruation, a friend of mine had borrowed my favourite white jacket without asking and had poured red wine over it. In addition I was the last to be examined and so it was night when my turn came. The lights from the training grounds attracted mosquitoes and I got bitten at least 100 times. When I had to fight Gryndilows (A/N: I'm not sure about the spelling), my watch stopped although it's supposed to be water proof. If that wasn't enough, those 12 vampires attacked me although they didn't belong to the exam task. At that time I was really pissed off and let my anger out on them, perhaps it wasn't very nice of me to do, but we'll never find out if they were upset about it. Finally, my last task for the exam was to fight a boggart."
"What did he transform into?" Ron asked.
"A life singing Enrique Iglesias. That's a muggle singer, a really bad one," she said noticing the questioning glances of those who didn't have contact with the muggle world.
"What did you do to him?" Harry inquired
"Well, first I made his voice disappear, then I dressed him in a pink ballerina dress and made him dance the Nutcracker suite."
Hermione and Harry took a second to picture this and burst out laughing. Malfoy, who felt ignored and, belonging to the family he did, liked to be the centre of attention, decided to take part in the conversation.
"How can miss Davies be our DADA teacher when she is related to Granger?"
"Well, I put miss Davies under the Justitia charm. It's a charm which can only be removed by the spellcaster and won't allow her any favoritisms," Dumbledore explained, "Now, if you would excuse us, I'd like to show miss Davies her classroom , her office and her quarters before classes start. I believe you'd also like to have breakfast first?"
The youths nodded and separated from Alex until their second and third period that morning where they would have her in what was going to be her first lesson as DADA teacher at Hogwarts.
A/N: First of all I'd like to apologize to all the Enrique Iglesias fans I might have insulted in this chapter. But, though some of his songs are quite nice, personally I think his voice is horrible.
Well, how did you find the chapter. Did you expect Alex to be the new DADA teacher? What do you think about her being betroathed to Snape's nephew? You'll find out about him in the next chapter, as you know from the summary he'll be the one helping Alex to bring Hermione and Draco together.. Zack will visit during winterbreak, that's when the real conspiracy starts.. But you'll have to wait for it
Like I already said, the next chapter will be shortly explaining Alex' background, the one after that will show their first lesson on the morning, Care of magical creatures..
Review pleeeeaaaaaaseeeeee!!!!!
Commenting the chapter by Winterbreath (Wb.) and Lucius Sikilmituile (L.S.)
Wb.: What do you think about the chapter?
L.S.: Oh, you already know that I love it, don't you? I always love your chapies!!!
Wb.: And what about Snape, did you enjoy that or do you want to kill me for embarrassing him publicly?
L.S.: You were sitting beside me, weren't you? It's one of the best scenes of this fic up to now! I really enjoyed it! It was sooooooooooooooooooo great to see him suffer!!! Muahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!
Wb.: I thought you liked him... but, I like Draco and embarrass him also, so I guess we are the same! Such things happen when you spend too much time (9 years) together!
L.S.: What!!!!???? You think we can ever spend too much time together??? O.K. It's the last time you come and visit me!!!!
Wb.: Oh! Stop that soap-opera imitating, you know how I meant it! I could never be sick of your presence or of Kira's, I like you two too much. ... Even though sometimes I don't know why...
L.S.: *looks at Wb. Like she's going to strangle her again* Really?!? Then O..K... But back to Snape, oh, yes, I love him, he's the best, he's great, he's wonderful...
Wb.: *grabs keyboard away from L.S.* That's enough! If you are acting like that with Snape I don't know what you will do when Lucius appears! *looks terrified*
L.S.: *has keyboard back* Haha!!! It's mine now, my precioussssssssssssssss!!!!!
Wb.: Ermh.. Yes, no Lord of the Rings for you till the third part comes out!!!!! I think I'll take her to a psychiatrist now, she has serious problems... But first, the answers to your reviews!
L.S.:* grabs the keyboard and hits Wb. On the head with it* I'm free, I'm free! And you are never telling Lucius that I'm acting this way with Snape. I don't guarantee for him if he knows (muahahahaha!!!!!) The only reason you are not dead is that you can go on writing.*evil grin*
Wb.: *sweatdrops* Whatever....
Answers to your reviews:
Lucius Sikilmituile: Thanks for your review! But I'm sad you thought I wanted to kill you! I'd never do that! Unlike you... *ducks under table because of evil glare* It was nice commenting this chapter with you! I hope we can do this again sometime!
Arrow-card: I was glad to receive such a super long review! *grins* don't get me wrong, I was really happy, I'm happy about every single review which tells me the story is good, length doesn't matter... And I mean that seriously!
Dracosgurl_chrissy: Well, what did you think about the new DADA teacher, did you expect her to be Alex? I hope you didn't have to wait too long for the new chapter. Concerning your search for new fics, feel free to look up my favourite stories list whenever you want ^_^.
Cat - chan: Wow! Eine review auf deutsch die nicht von einer meiner Freundinnen stammt! Das ist echt cool! Ich hoffe ich höre öfters was von dir! Schön, dass dir der song vom sprechenden Hut gefallen hat, ich hatte ehrlich gesagt meine Zweifel, doch wenn es bei den Lesern ankommt.. Übrigens will ich bald ein Hermine/Draco fic auf Deutsch posten, wenn du willst, sage ich dir bescheid sobald das erste chapy im Netz ist, es wird ein Märchen (Romance/Fantasy) genannt "Die drei Königreiche".
Note to t baby: I tried everyhtig to send to that damned update notice. I tried with t baby@yahoo.de with t_baby, with t-baby and with tbaby, nothing! Absolutely nothing! Neither of the ID existed according to my e- mail account! I'm really, really sorry!
Sunny autumn greetings from Barcelona ^_^
