Well my friend BratPrincess-187, in school said for me to continue to write this so there! : P lol. She is helping me edit the chapters as I write 'em and she turns my good work to great! Good or bad reviews don't bother me. I'm just glad BratPrincess-187 is supporting me!

A dark apartment, empty except for books that littered the ground, and a couch, that held a young looking woman. As she slept moonlight filtered through the window and into the room hitting her across the face caused her to stir. Her eye lids flickered and opened to reveal gray eyes framed with dark lashes. The moon's light caused her naturally pale skin to glow slightly and she sat up anxiously looking towards the door.

"Vadania?" The women in question looked to the door as she heard a knock. Vadania stood brushing her brown bangs away from her face and ran her fingers through her short now tangled hair. She opened the door and greeted the person with a hug.

"Dumbledore, I fell asleep waiting for you to come!" Vadania exclaimed as she let the old mage into the apartment and they sat down on the couch.

"I'm sorry Vadania but I ran into a little bit of a...mess." Dumbledore ended quietly. Suddenly he smiled brightly. "We have much to discuss Vadi." The headmaster said affectionately though his face was serious.

Dumbledore entered a room with a long table. The room was filled with people all that turned to greet him when he stepped in. The people were all members of the Order of the Phoenix.

"Everyone is here Dumbledore." Mrs. Weasley said as they all sat down at the table.

"Actually there is but one more who is to join us tonight." Dumbledore replied and as if on cue the door opened and Vadania strode in something in her hand. It was Kreacher the house-elf and he struggled against her hold. Freeing himself he ran and hid.

"Vadania..."

"Headmaster, is this bloody creature supposed to 'accidentally' drop objects onto your head." She said touching her own head tentatively. The brunette brought her hand back, blood on her fingertips. She wore a black collared shirt with a black vest and cloak. Instead of shoes she wore black sneakers

Dumbledore glared at Kreacher. "Go to your Mistress's room and stay there until I say otherwise." Kreacher jumped from its hiding place and ran from the room but not before smirking at a glaring Vadania.

Vadania muttered something as Mrs. Weasley walked up to her.

"Let me take a look dear." The red-head said as she pulled out her wand. She muttered a spell and Vadania felt the pain recede.

"Thank you." She said smiling at Mrs. Weasley and both women took their seats.

"Sorry I'm late Headmaster...I was just finishing moving my things to the school."

"It's quite all right." The Headmaster smiled and turned to everyone. "Everyone this is Vadania Kijo, she is a new member and the new DADA professor."

"Hello dear, I'm Mrs. Weasley..." The red head began and the others went. All were friendly until she got too...

"Someone's jealous." Lupin said with a grin.

Snape turned his glare onto Remus. "Shut-up werewolf." The potion's master turned back to Vadania. "It's not nice to stare Professor." Snape said raising an eyebrow and her smile widened.

"So you're the famous potion master that will be my partner." Vadania laughed quietly.

"What, pray tell, are you talking about?" Snape asked annoyed.

"The Headmaster wishes me to join you on your Voldemort trips."

"NO!" He turned to the Headmaster whose eyes were sparkling brightly.

"This is not up for discussion Severus." Dumbledore said causing him to glare.

He turned to Vadania. "I don't baby sit, so out there you're on your own."

Still smiling Vadania said. "Don't worry Professor."

"Hey Harry did you hear about the new DADA?" Ron asked as they walked to class.

"Yeah, I hope this one doesn't blood well try to kill me this time though." The raven-haired boy said jadedly.

"Well technically Lockheart didn't try to kill you..." Hermione tried to cheer her friend up.

"No, he only tried to erase my memories." Harry said while they stopped in front of the classroom door.

"Don't worry Dumbledore is probably being very careful now. Anyways I do hope this will be a good one." Hermione said. Ron rolled his eyes.

"There is more to life than just learning 'Mione."

Hermione glared at him and Ron looked away red-faced. The brown-haired girl turned to look back at Harry to find he was now staring at something ahead of them. She followed his gaze and saw Snape, the 6th year Slytherins, and Gryffindors and a woman with short brown hair.

"Alright everyone inside." The women spoke as she pointed her ebony wand with a red wolf insignia at the door that sprang open at once. The students filed in and respectively separated to their sides and Professor Snape stood by the door talking with the woman for alittle longer, until he gave a curt nod and she shut the door as Snape sat down behind the teachers desk.

"Hello I'm Professor Vadania and I'll be your new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher, for hopefully longer than a year." She smiled but saw the doubtful faces.

'A woman?' Harry thought and turned to Ron who had the same idea as he.

"You seem too young to know anything." Draco smired at her. "Professor." He ended.

Vadania turned to the blonde Slytherin and reminded herself to hold her tongue.

"Well Mr. Malfoy, the first lesson is never underestimate anyone based on looks. Or would you like a demonstration?" Malfoy remained quiet.

Vadania went on, "The opponent can be much older than you think and more experienced. There are many potions out on the black market being sold such as Polyjuicie Potion to make a person look older, youger, beautiful, or ugly. So don't think you have the upper hand because they look inexperienced. The Professor moved from and stared at all of them. "Evaluate your opponent looking for possible weak points or objects that may assist you, there is always the chance of you losing your wand." Vadania flicked her wrist and some students chairs began to float in the air, the class gasped watching as the others floated. "Lesson two, always pay attention. You never know when it will cost you your life." She flicked her wrist again and those students floating were placed back onto the ground and a blade appeared in her hand.

"Professor, is that Balgo's ethereal blade?" Hermione asked raising her hand. Most of her classmates were confused and looked at the blade again, the only other one that didn't look confused was Draco.

Vadania smiled brightly. "Five points to Gryffindor, Ms. Granger is right, this is Balgo's blade. Lesson 3, learn to control the objects and or animals, and I'm not talking about the unforgivable curse. Though it is not form our plane it's very solid and real enough to-" She ran her finger along the edge of the blade. "Cut." Vadania showed the bleeding finger to the class.

She tapped the blade with her wand and it vanished without a trace. "Now I want everyone to read chapter 1 and 2 and go over all the different spells that are you level. DO NOT GO OVER YOUR LIMIT. That's another thing you'll be studying, getting to know, your limits. As a wizard you need to continue to practice and study different levels of magic." She paused sitting at her desk when she saw Snape had moved. "To go over your limit puts you and others at risk. I will help those individuals who require help." The bell rang. "Remember your homework. Class Dismissed!" She smiled.

The class left talking, joking, laughing. Vadania watched in particular Harry as he watched Snape with a wary look. The last student left closing the door behind them. Sucking on her cut forefinger she moved over to Snape.

"Professor Snape."

"What?" He snapped.

"Whoa, calm down." Vadania said smiling her face softening and she tugged on his hair so that his head bowed. "A handsome guy like you with brains should thing about the past less and about the present and future more." She smiled letting go of his hair, which wasn't greasy or oily but rather soft. Professor Snape's head snapped up in shock looking at her back as she walked out of the classroom, a slight blush on her cheeks.

"Some people should learn to mind their own business!" He called after her and angrily made his way to the door but stopped midway. "Wait...handsome?!"
