XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Chapter 2: Meeting Voldemort and his bitch...
"Phew...a day with no problems." Vadania breathed straightening the papers on her desk before standing and stretching. She sat on the chair relieved the day was over but it was short lived as she heard someone clear their throat.
"Professor...it is best you do not relax yet since we are to leave to see the Dark Lord." Snape muttered from a shadow the doorway cast. She looked at him surprised yet pleased and sighed at his scowl. "What in the world are you doing here so late anyway."
"Well, since you seem so eager to know...I was preparing the next days quiz as well as lesson." She said standing and her large silver eyes widened slightly seeing a small black book sitting on the desk. She quickly removed it and locked it in her desk.
"Quiz." He stated.
"Well it's just to test how much they know. It doesn't really count." She added and he turned his back to her.
"Whatever, it's not my concern how you teach Professor." He said coldly and Vadania looked at his back. She rolled her eyes agitated slightly.
'Why does he have to be like that?' She thought briefly before calming and following him as he walked through the door. 'Now to meet Voldemort.'

"Argh..." Vadania groaned as Voldemort's grip about her throat tightened as he tried to peer into her mind. She was lucky she could breath. Slightly.
"So this is the wizard you said would serve me well, Snape." Voldemort hissed looking in the indifferent man's direction. Snape nodded and Voldemort dropped Vadania to the ground where she clutched her throat. "Well, I have no reason to doubt your loyalty Snape, but if this runt screws up it would mean both of your bloody heads." He sneered and Snape bowed his head.
"Yes, lord." He said evenly and Belatrix cackled.
"Would I have the pleasure of disposing of them Lord?" She grinned and Vadania found her revolting. Belatrix played with her wand idly as she gazed at Vadania a deadly gleam in her eyes.
"I'd like to see you try." Vadania growled a sneer on her ever smiling face. Belatrix stopped grinning and a look of hate came onto it and it was Vadania's turn to smile. "I'd rather Lord Voldemort did it himself." She finished. Belatrix hastened forward but Voldemort stopped her. A thoughtful look was on his face.
"Hold her." He ordered Snape and he did so. Vadania looked at Voldemort calmly as he raised his wand and pointed it at her left arm. Pain suddenly shot through it and she jerked, but Snape held fast. The pain was nearly unbearable but as soon as she was about to yell it receded slightly and she realized her eyes were shut tight. She opened them to see a tattoo on her upper arm. "You now belong to me as the others are." Voldemort said and she winced as she touched it tentatively. "Take her out of here." He smirked. Snape nodded.
"Yes Lord." Snape responded leaving with Vadania in tow. Once they were away from the area Vadania scowled.
"That bastard is stronger than he looks." She murmured brushing her fingers against her throat. She pulled her sleeve down.
"You should have stayed quiet like I warned you to." Snape responded coldly.
"I'll keep that in mind." She said looking at him and she was relieved to see Hogwarts ahead of them. "Though I'd like to teach that bitch Belatrix a lesson in manners not to mention how not to lick someone's ass." She scowled one again. Snape looked at her from the corner of his eye.
"You're going to get yourself killed."
"I thought you said that I was on my own...does that mean you are worried about me?" She smiled and he scowled at her.
"Bloody hell. N-O, no." He snarled. "I just don't want Headmaster to tell me to watch out for you." He said angrily.
Vadania tilted her head to look up at him better when they walked into the halls. His eyebrow twitched as his agitation grew.
"Goodnight Professor." He said icily and Vadania smiled startling him. Her eyes were now as grey as a coming storm and the moonlight lit up her face.
"Goodnight Snape." She replied tugging on a strand of his hair affectionately like she did before. She wasn't surprised when he turned on his heel and left dark eyes cold. With a sigh she left for her own room hoping she would be able to help them all like Dumbledore said she would be able to. 'I only hope he's right.' She stopped by her desk and withdrew the black book and went to her room shutting the door quietly. She changed into a violet pair of pajama pants with a long sleeved shirt. She sat down opening the book and with a piece of charcoal began to sketch.

"Don't you think it is wise you pay attention Mr. Potter. Unless you wish to fail my class." Snape snapped and Harry's head snapped up.
"Sorry Professor." Harry responded a look of embarrassment on his face. The embarrassment left however as Snape continued to glare at him.
"Make sure it doesn't happen again." Snape sneered and Harry nodded glaring at Snape in response.

"Harry...what where you thinking about in class?" Ron asked between mouthfuls of food.
"Nothing Ron, I was just spacing out. That's all." Harry said smiling and Ron paused midway of shoving a chicken leg into his mouth.
"You sure?" He asked and Harry nodded. In truth he had been thinking of his late godfather Sirius. His new thoughts were interrupted when he heard a familiar laugh and he turned his head slightly to see Hagrid talking to Professor Vadania. She laughed with Hagrid and Harry noticed when Hagrid ruffled her hair abit.
"You think Hagrid knows who Professor Vadania is?" Harry whispered looking to Ron and Hermione.
"Maybe Harry." Hermione guessed and Harry nodded.
"Let's visit him later." He told them and they nodded.
XXX
"Hagrid!" Harry whispered knocking on the large door. The large door opened and the large burly man stood looking down at them all.
"You all will never learn..." Hagrid said backing up quickly and letting them in. "Hurry now...you know you'd get in trouble if you came here. Especially so late at night." Hagrid scolded and they looked at him curiously. "Eh...well, would you all want some tea?" He grinned and they nodded. They sat looking about. Harry spoke first.
"Hagrid...do you know much about the new Professor." Harry ventured and Hagrid laughed.
"If that's what's worrying you, you can stop right there. She was raised by Dumbledore himself, wonderful little sprite. Though she did grow up with your mother and father but not as close TO them. She just schooled with them all. Not very noticeable young woman then. Stayed away from everyone, if I remember correctly." He mused and Harry looked at him in shock.
"Shouldn't have told you all that." He sighed. He gave them all cups of tea and they looked at each other.
"Well she must have been noticeable to learn that spell Balgo's blade." Hermione stated and Hagrids brows raised.
"Did she now?" He murmured. "Quite the learner isn't she. She had graduated with the rest no honors that I clearly remember. But she did read a lot. Probably why she kept to herself most of the time." He thought aloud and Hermione giggled.
"Not that I mind Hagrid but you should maybe think before you speak." Hermione said with a grin. He looked at her confused and then laughed with her.
"I guess your right." He laughed. "But trust me kids. There is nothing to worry about with that woman. She maybe different but nothing to worry about." He said looking at Harry. "Well if your finished with your tea, it'd be best if you leave back to your dorms quickly."
XXX
"Professor McGonagol...may I ask what pleasure do I owe that you visit me?" Vadania asked politely. McGonagol smiled abit.
"Pleasure? Now dear, a bit tired aren't we? Why are you still at your desk? You should be asleep in your room by now." McGonagol said as she waved her wand and a chair appeared. She sat on it and waited for Vadania's response.
"Well, honestly Professor, I was just studying a bit about my students. I think it would be good if I knew something about them." Vadania smiled softly. "Besides I personally don't think it's fair for all the other Professors to know more about them than I do." Vadania laughed.
"Well I'd preferably have Professors to learn about their students first hand. You'd bet a better view at them." McGonagol said standing. "I don't want I drowsy Professor teaching a defense when they can barely defend themselves. McGonagol smiled and Vadania yawned.
"Yeah I guess you are right Professor." Vadania said standing and stretching.
"Of course I am."
XXX
'Is it me or do these two want to tear each other's guts out.' Vadania thought as she caught Snape and Harry glaring at each other. 'Well my job is to help everyone, but in order to do that these two have to get over their differences.' Vadania mused and noticed Hermione's hand raising.
"Yes Ms. Granger."
"I was wondering...where you learned the Balgo's blade spell?" She asked curiously. Vadania smiled and ran a hand through her short brown hair.
"I studied it for a couple of days and was able to conjure it on my first try. Of course I was taking a risk which I want none of you attempting. It is dangerous to conjure items like the blade when it can backfire and injure as I've said and may even kill you. Curiosity killed the cat." Vadania explained. "But on the other hand, satisfaction brought it back." She mused.
"But how is it, it only took you a few days to learn the spells?" Hermione asked. Vadania continued to smile.
"Simple. I studied it to the fullest, problems, solutions, weakness, and strengths. Every single thing. And that is how you should study you and your enemies position. Your advantages, disadvantages as well as theirs. It as simple as every day life choices. Studying can be brief but if you really value something as books then you should have no problem." Vadania finished.
"Either that or you had no life, and to much time on your hands." Draco muttered and the Slytherin class snickered. If Vadania had felt the sting of the comment she showed nothing. Instead she fixed Draco with a curious expression.
"If you value your own life Mr. Malfoy, you would study the spells in order for those in your life can be safe as well as your own. No one can say they don't wish to protect someone or something of value. Magic in our gifted lives give us a reason as well as a chance to do just that. It is not our fault of what happens that are generally out of our control. You just have to take the responsibility to do just that. Studying to me has helped me learn to protect and pass that knowledge down to all of you this year and I hope you will all use it in the right manner." Vadania said while balancing her wand on her index finger.
Draco's eye twitched since Vadania didn't take his bait. "Yes Professor." Vadania smirked at his obvious dislike. Ron looked at Hermione who looked at him as if to say 'I told you studying was helpful!.' He rolled his eyes and looked at Harry who had caught the little speech. His eyes were downcast and it looked as if there were tears in the young man's eyes. Harry blinked them away however before anyone else noticed.

"Professor Snape, Mr. Potter I would like you both to stay so I may talk to you both." Vadania said not glancing up at them as the class left. "Close the door Mr. Potter." She stood looking at their discomfort and bit her bottom lip nervously. "Well there is no way I can go about this, so I'll just say what I have to say. I am afraid to tell you but you both need to cool it. I know you immensely hate each other but give it a rest. There is a larger point at stake and we all need to cooperate to get around it." Vadania stated and Harry stared at her stunned.
"Professor, how...I-I...but." Harry stammered and Vadania placed a hand on his head.
"Yes I know Harry what went, and is going on still. But in order for us to get rid of Voldemort we need to first cooperate. I know you are very tired of all this and I will try my best to help you." She paused.
'Not enjoyment, and not sorrow
Is our destined end or way
but to act, that each tomorrow,
find us farther than today.'
(A Psalm of Life by: Henry Wadsworth Longfellow: Stanza 3)
Vadania quoted. "You both must get past this, in order to live a normal life...well as normal as wizard's lives go." Vadania smiled. Harry hesitated but nodded. Vadania turned to look at Snape but his back was turned to them as he walked to exit. Vadania's eye twitched. She looked about and spotting a pebble she chucked it at Snape and it hit his head.
"What it bloody hell is the matter with you?!" Snape growled swinging around while rubbing his head.
'Trust no Future, howe'er pleasant!
Let the dead Past bury its dead!
Act-Act in the living Present!
Heart within, and gods overhead.'
(A Psalm of Life by: Henry Wadsworth Longfellow: Stanza 6)
Vadania scolded and Snape glared at her. He swung back to the door and opening it left. She looked at Harry and sighed. "Stubborn man, isn't he?" She mused. He looked at her surprised.
"Yeah...thanks Professor. I'm happy you understand." He said softly and she patted his head.
"No problem Mr. Potter. I'll straighten the handsome devil out though." She laughed leaving Harry stunned.
'Does she like Snape?!' He wondered briefly. 'Nah...'
