Chapter 8

Harry's boggart

As I head off to Defensive against the dark arts Kelsey comes up behind me. "How was Muggle Studies?" she asks, "Anicent Runes was boring as usual." Living in the Muggle world during the summer tested her out of muggle studies. Otherwise we would be together all day.

"Muggle Studies was once again a lie. She really overdid the idea of the internet."

"Yeah, It must be harder teaching about something you have never used before." Kelsey said.

"Good thing we have DADA. I love the class even though I have to work harder now so I can ace my DADA N.E.W.T." I answer. "I wonder who the new teacher this year is…"

"I guess we will find out!" Kelsey said as we walked into the classroom. As I walk in I notice 2 suprises. First HARRY is in my class! The other was the new teacher. I could tell right away who the new teacher was even though I had never met him. He was an older version of Draco from the platinum blonde hair to the deep grey eyes. Lucius Malfoy. I ran right up to harry.

"I didn't know you were in this class!" I exclaim.

"Well we never did get around to talking about our classes." Harry said kissing my cheek. Before anything more could be said Mr. Malfoy started our class.

"Sit down students. I am your new teacher. Professor Malfoy is my name." Malfoy said in a demanding tone. "This class is meant only for students that's excelled or are going to be in a defensive aspect of the Ministry. Therefore its going to be a tougher and faster paced class."

"Father, I don't think that Neville and Kelsey should be here then." Draco said from the back. I didn't notice him there.

"Longbottom and Lowkins are on my list for this class, Draco. So they have as much right to be here as you do." Lucuis said. "In the future don't tell me how to run my class and from now on I am Professor malfoy. Even to you son."

I heard that Draco and his Father don't get along anymore. Now I know that its true for sure.

"Ok lets start today's lesson. It will be on the Patronus Charm and how to protect yourself from powerful dark beings. I heard that Professor Lupin gave some special teachings of this charm. But I don't think that you all were old enough to have a full patronus. I have heard that Mr. potter can perform one. Can anyone else?" The class stared blankly at eachother. "Ok I guess not. Mr. Potter would you please demonstrate a correct Patronus? I have a Bogart for practice in that chest over there." Professor Malfoy pointed to a wardrobe but harry didn't budge.

"Is something wrong?" I whisper.

"My Bogart is Voldermort killing those I love." I cringe at hearing the name. I still cant belive he goes around saying the dark lords name.

"Tell Malfoy." I answer. Harry approaches Malfoy and whispers in his ear.

"Do you think I care who or what your Bogart is Mr. Potter? It could be the damn queen of England for all I care."

"Suit yourself…" harry mutters and walks up to the wardrobe. As he opens the chest a man in a cape appears so does another figure a female… wait that's ME. The caped man points it wand at me and yells "Avada Ked…"

"EXCEPTO PATRONUS!" Harry yells and my and the caped figures are chased away by a stag.

"Maybe I should have listened to you potter. I didn't think that your bogart had changed. But its good to know with whom your heart lies with Mr. Potter." Malfoy says and glances at me. Most of the class is in shock at seeing the dark lord. "Calm down class there is nothing to fear. That was not really him, its just a boggart!"

"So its true!","He has seen the dark lord","Poor Harry", "HES WITH JAMES!" everyone is whispering something of that sort. Harry comes and sits down next to me. Malfoy finally calms the class down and spends the next half hour explaining uses of the patronus and its different forms. Malfoy gives the assignment. Write a 3 parchment paper on how a Patronus can save someone from a vampire.
