Hogwarts was set afire with the news of the murdered chemistry teacher found with the Dark Mark.

"So he's killing in the muggle world again." Dumbledore said in his office where the teachers and the Order of the Phoenix had gathered.

"Why kill only one muggle?" Lupin replied.

"We're going to need the class list. There might be a clue there." Snape commented.

"Good idea. Now we . . ." McGonagall was interrupted by five people walking through the door.

"Sorry we're late." Oliver Wood said. He was the new flying teacher as Madam Hooch had retired the year before. Standing behind him were the new teacher aides; Katie Bell, for flying, and three others. One was blonde with blue eyes that always held a hint of mischief. Her name was Allison, an ex Gryffindor, now the Defense Against the Dark Arts TA, under the teaching of Professor Lupin. The next was Amy, a girl with brown hair that reached her shoulders and brown eyes. She was an ex Ravenclaw who was now the TA for Charms. The last girl was Elizabeth. She was originally from Grenada(AN.

South America) and was a fellow ex Gryffindor. She was the TA for Transfigurations.

"As I was saying," Professor McGonagall began, "I think we should take Severus's idea and get all the student identification of all the students in the class."

"That could take forever." Katie whined.

"Let's leave it for later." Dumbledore said, dismissing them.

"Well, I have to go. I have to go buy a dress for the ball." Katie said to Oliver.

"Didn't you go with the other girls?"

"Of course not. Too crowded." She kissed him goodbye and left. They had been going out for two years now. It had taken her a while to get Oliver to open up, but she had him now.

At 'The Witching Hour', Dani and Evelyn were sitting around relaxing and discussing the chemistry teacher.

"Ah, silence," Evelyn started, and the door opened, the bells jingling. "Is short lived." she groaned. "Damn it."

"Do you want me to deal with it?" Dani asked.

"Nah. I have band practice. You just go home."

"Sure. Sorry about your chem teacher."

"No prob."

She walked into the store to greet the two new customers. "Can I help you ladies?"

"Just browsing."

"If you need any help, I'll be in the back."

"So, Katie, is Oliver proposing yet?" Angelina Johnson inquired as she helped Katie look for a dress.

"I told you he's not. Stop teasing me."

Fifteen minutes later, they left with their packages. Evelyn watched silently as they left. They look so familiar she thought. Shrugging her shoulders, she locked up and left for her band practice.
