Chapter 2: The New Teacher's

Dumbledore stood in shock at the sight in front of him, as Rufus Scrimgeour moved from behind him. "Sirius Black? Bloody.."

"Dana Fox?" said Dumbledore softly. She walked over and gave him a hug.

"It's me, alright. We were sent back, I'll tell you all about it, after some ice cream from Diagon Alley" She smiled.

"I agree, I need to sit down.. It's not everyday I see the dead come back, But unfortunately, Florean Fortescue's dead." said Dumbledore. They heard a hollow thunk as Scrimgeour collapsed. Dana looked shocked. "We'll go back to Hogwarts."

"Of course. What going on with the Order?" Sirius asked.

"Oh, just gathering information mainly. Since Voldemort is back, there isn't much else to do then to penetrate his.." Dumbledore said.

"What do you mean, 'He's back?'" Dana interrupted, "Did he leave?"

"For awhile yes." Dumbledore looked at her curiously, "I'm quite curious as to where you've been. And why is Sirius younger?"

"All in good time, you should know that. Never can trust the ministry." Dana said, as they hopped on the elevator.

"What is today, Dumbledore?" Sirius asked.

"The 20th of July." he answered, "Why?"

"Time passes much more slowly where we were." he replied

"You'll have to tell me all about it then."

They stepped up to a fireplace, Dana grabbed some floo powder, and threw it in the fire. "Where are we off to then Dumbledore?" she asked, "Your office?"

"That's fine Ms. Fox, Off you go!" he said.

Once they had all arrived in his office, and were sitting comfortably with a cup of pumpkin juice, Dumbledore asked, "So, if you don't mind me asking, where have you been?"

"The Realms of the Gods," said Dana, "Ever since I was killed. They've been training me to be a Guardian."

"A what?" Dumbledore asked. Sirius had to laugh, he'd never seen Dumbledore confused.

"A Guardian. They, that is to say I, Protect those who protect the innocent. I protect the innocent as well, but my main priority is protecting those who are spoken of in prophesies." She said.

"And where is this 'Realm of the Gods?'" Dumbledore asked.

"Well, I don't know exactly. There are five places you can end up when you die, you are either, sent to heaven, hell, the archway of rebirth, the gate back to earth, for those who don't want to leave what they have on earth, or the realm of the gods."

"Why are you both kids?"

"Well, for me, time passed slowly. What seemed a month to me was 18 years here. For him, Apollo spoke to the other gods and they de-aged him to be my age so that it wouldn't be so weird if we got married."

"De-aged?"

"They fed me a cookie."

"Right." said Dumbledore.

"So, what all have I missed, fill me in." said Dana.

As Dumbledore explained everything that had been happening over the past 18 years, Sirius held Dana's hand, and kept her calm, through the thick and the thin. Dana looked shocked when she heard about Harry's first year. Once Dumbledore finished talking, There was a minute of silence before…

"So, Am I going to be a teacher or a student." Dana asked Dumbledore, seriously.

"What do you mean, Ms. Fox?"

"Well, I've got to protect Harry somehow. Either as a student or a teacher. I can be both. But a teacher would suit me better, I think. Me and Sirius could teach Defense Against the Dark Arts. Since we're both members of the Order, it would be perfect."

"I already have a teacher ready to take the post of Defense Against the Dark Arts." Dumbledore said calmly. "The only post we have open is potions."

"But what about Sniv… I mean, Snape?" asked Sirius.

"He's taken the Defense Against the Dark Arts."

"Snape? Are you kidding me? He's a freakin' dark wizard!" Dana said, loudly.

"I have complete trust in Snape…"

"He was there…" She said, louder, "He was there when Voldemort tortured me, and killed me! I don't care what he has told you, Dumbledore, Don't trust him."

Dumbledore sat in awe at this statement. Sirius did too. They all sat in silence for a few moments, when Dumbledore finally said, "Alright, I already promised him Defense Against the Dark Arts, but, we could do another one, with defense geared especially towards ways of fighting dark wizards. We could call it the DA. A title once used for a secret club Harry started."

"I suppose that will work. But if we're doing that I only want N.E.W.T students. I could teach Wandless spells and Occlumency, and Sirius could teach them to be Animgus.. oh wait.. your not registered, oh well, I'll register and teach it." Dana said, already planning. "It'll do."

"Alright, I'm off to pick up Harry from his aunt and uncles, would you like to join.."

"No, professor, thank you. I believe, that the two of us need to do some shopping. Though I doubt I have any money.. I forgot about that.. Sirius do you have.."

"I have some, unless you've already found my will?"

"Yes we have, but nothing's been changed."

"Good, We'll go to the bank, and buy some robes, and then head to Headquarters." said Sirius.

"Oh, right you go, I need to inform everyone that our headquarters is back."

"Ok.. We'll be there to meet them." Sirius said.

"It's good to see you Dumbledore, and don't worry, now that I'm here, you've got nothing to worry about."

Dana Grabbed some floo powder, and tossed it in, saying in a clear voice, "Diagon Alley." Sirius turn to Dumbledore, who was now standing by the door. "don't tell Harry I'm back. I'd rather surprise him."

"Alright, until the feast!" Dumbledore said as Sirius threw some floo powder onto the fire.

"Diagon Alley!" He said clearly, and he was gone.

After some robe shopping, and buying wands from Ollivander's, they headed to the headquarters, where a very happy Kreacher was shocked into fainting, which the two did nothing to help. A little while after they were home, there was a knock at the door, and a very large group of witches and wizards came in to see them. Tonks, who didn't know Dana, but knew Sirius, gave him a great big hug. Mad-eye moody, shook hands with Them both, and when he turned to let others through, Dana swore she saw a tear. It was a very short reunion though, as most of the order had to go back to there jobs.

"Well, that was fun!" Dana said, packing a trunk of things to bring with her to Hogwarts. Sirius handed her a pile of his clothes, smiling.

"That it was. Did you see the look on their faces. It was amazing. More so then when they heard about the death of Voldemort.. or disappearance." He replied.

They continued to talk, Dana asking questions about Harry. Who his friends were, what they were like, what he was like. Soon after, they went to bed.

They continued the cleaning of the black house at a much faster pace now that Dana was on the case. She was often using her guardian powers to quickly clear curtains of Doxies. Soon they had every room on the first and second floors clean, and only had the third and attic left to do. Dana destroyed all type of dark objects, and she even made dinner for anyone who felt like stopping in. And through these days, they got ready to go. When the day finally came for them to go, Dana got up as usual, to Sirius whispering in her ear, "Time to wake up, love." They were down stairs just having cooked breakfast, to realize it was ten o'clock in the morning, and they had to be at Kings Cross by 11.

"There is no way we will get there in time." Sirius said, floating the trunks down the stairs. "And we're out of Floo powder."

"Portkey?" Dana asked.

"Illegal." Sirius replied

"You don't have your apparition license."

"Everyone thinks your dead.."

"Right.. It looks like we'll have to fly."

"You don't have a broom, love, and I don't have a spare."

"If I send the trunk ahead of us, you don't have to worry about me."

"Guardian powers?"

"Yep."

Dana put her hand over the trunks, and the popped away to the entrance hall, with a note addressed to Dumbledore telling him these were theirs, and that they would be running late. Then they stepped out, Sirius with his broom. He kicked off the ground without a problem, as Dana turned into a giant hawk, with a huge 10 feet wing span. She flew up to join him, as he looked at her, amazed. They flew off in the direction of Hogsmeade, and landed in Hogsmeade as the sun set, and a deep fog surrounded them. Once at the gates, they ran into Tonks, who was walking back from the castle. She looked utterly bewildered at the hawk who was flying near Sirius, but Sirius shook his head, and she let it go, telling them that Dumbledore would be starting his speech soon. As they passed the gates, Sirius hopped back on his broom and flew to the castle as fast as he could. When they reached the doors, Sirius stopped frowning.

"How do we get in." He asked as Dana changed back. She lent back, as if she were going to propel something, and then pushed forward. The doors flew open, and the entered, the door's closing themselves. they hurried forward, stopping outside the great hall to compose themselves, then pushed the double doors open, looking around. There were many stunned face, including All the teachers, Harry, Hermione, Ron, and many others. Dana was the first to speak.

"I'm sorry we're late professor, We had some minor problems with transportation." She said, calmly and smoothly.

"That's quite alright Professor Fox, Professor Black. I was just about to announce about your class." He replied. "This year, in spite of recent events, we've decided to add another Defense Against the Dark Arts class focused basely on defense from Lord Voldemort," Many people twitched or let out a small scream, "and his Death Eaters. Only those who have made an A on your Defense Against the Dark Arts O.W.L's may take it. Please, Professors, come have a seat."

They strode up to the teachers table, cloaks billowing behind them, and sat in the only two seats left available, in between Snape and Hagrid. Knowing they would fight if Sirius sat next to Snape, Dana took that seat, also so she could be a bully. As soon as they sat, Dumbledore continued with his speech. Dana leaned over to Snape and said, "Surprised to see me? You ought to, after all, you did torture me before my death." He didn't say anything. "If you do anything, ANYTHING, that seems in the least bit suspicious, I will kill you. Have no doubt in that."

It appear he worked up the nerve to say something. "I don't know how the hell you are here, but you couldn't kill me if you tried."

"Willing to bet on that. I could throw you across the hall without lifting a finger. Don't try me Snape. I don't care if Dumbledore trusts you, your Occlumency does nothing to stop me from reading your thoughts. And by the by, get that last thought out of your head. Students are off limits." He looked like he was about to wet himself. Dana turned away from him, thoroughly satisfied, and put her head on Sirius's shoulder as Dumbledore finished his speech, and sent them all to bed.

Out of the crowd, a boy, looking very much like James Potter, came racing to them, followed by a tall, very tall red head that had to be a Weasley, and a girl with bushy brown hair.

"Sirius!" Harry jumped over the table to hug him. The other two had alittle more composition.

"Hello there, good to see you Harry!"

"Why are you so young? What happened? Where did you go." he asked him all very quickly.

"Another time, Harry, for now, I'd like for you to meet your Godmother. Dana Fox."

"It's good to meet you after all I've heard." She said, Texan accent coming out all the more, as she took him in a hug.

"Err, nice to meet you to."

"I'll explain everything, at another time though. I'm very tired. Flying from headquarters isn't an easy trip." Sirius said.

"No it wasn't, And if your taking our class, then you'd best be prepared by getting a lot of sleep." said Dana

"Well, they don't need to go to bed right away." Sirius said.

"No, that us that don't need to go to bed right away, They need their sleep, but no doubt they will be discussing what happened on the train with Malfoy."

"What thing on the train with Malfoy?" Sirius asked.

"You forget, dear, I'm more skilled the Voldemort and Dumbledore put together, I know what happened on the train." Dana said, calmly.

"Right you are, love." Sirius said, Harry, Ron, and Hermione looking stunned.

"Well, off to bed with you then." Dana said, turning them around, lifting them up and flying them to the double doors, and setting them down gently. At this, they went to Dumbledore, who showed them to their room, and they promptly fell asleep in each others arms.

So, what's going to be in the first class? What skills is Dana more talented in then Dumbledore, and how will Snape respond to Dana's threats. But most importantly, When will Sirius and Dana finally tie the knot, and get it on. All coming up in the next chapters of God
