It wasn't that Remus was sick, or anything like that. It had been decided as the outbreak of sickness was just beginning to show its ugly head, that it probably would be best if Hogwarts resident werewolf got an early vacation.

At first he had planed to stay close to the school at the Shirking Shake, but then he heard about this great concert in Glassberry that was very awesome, so he just had to go. I mean David Bowie only comes around once.

James had been very pissed when he had leaved and not taken her, but…well she was still very pissed.

The class eagerly entered the D.A. class that morning, wondering who would be their new teacher. Some had heard rumours that a student would be teaching, but other had heard at the Tomato man would be back. As the class sat down, they only had to wait a moment, before they new teacher burst through the doors.

Where meg had merely worn her school uniform, Kira had dressed up in a long robe of silver and blue. Walking down the steps from her office, in one hand she held a large leather bond book, and in the other, she held a long cigar that pink and red smoke billowed from.

"The Dark Arts is a force that must be respected and understood before it can be mastered. It will take strong will and determination to pass my class, as I will be going places where your other teachers have never gone before."

"Yaay Professor Kira!" Meg said waving two multi-coloured flags with "GO KIRA" printed brightly on both.

"Ah Meg, what are you doing here." Kira said as she leaned on a banister and took a deep drag. "Don't you have a class?"

"Oh silly pants. As a teacher I can cancel all classes I wish. MWAHAHAHAH! James would have come, but she's still pouting."

"yeah she always wanted D.A. oh well. Back to my award winning lesson."

And thus she did begin her award winning lesson, a lesson that would live on in the hearts and minds of all the ten non-sick students who attended that class.

To start with, she told the class that the main thing that they must lean was how to handle stress and pressure and how to work through it. Kira can up with a very clever way to test or work on her newly acquired students.

What she did was give the students a generic muggle IQ test and make them take it. This seems easy and hardly Dark Arts, but Kira gave it a special twist.

In front of every student sat a furious man eating tiger. The tigers were neither tied down nor made to stay in once place by any means other than Kira's convincing words. The tigers would growl and the tigers would bite—but not maim—and all the students were allowed to do was take the test.

Kira wasn't trying to be vindictive or anything like that. It was actually a good way to test a person's strength of will, it was just a bit unconventional, that's all.

When ever a student even looked at kira or the giant cat in a away that had any hankering of ungoodness, Kira would ever so calmly pick up one of the large books that her predecessor had used on the poor students and the rude one would smile and get back to their test.

It was a good first lesson by any means. No one died, got maimed or went into a lake, this meant that the poll that the faculty had had going now had no clear winner, accept meg, who had said that probably nothing would happen.

What an up set. Maybe the next new teacher would find to be more interesting.
