Chapter Nine: First Classes of the Year.
Jack walked into the Muggle Studies class room, feeling good only the Weasley twins, Sandy and Bunny, knew he pulled a small prank on Malfoy. Jack made ice appear under Malfoy feet making him slip after his impression of a fainting fit when Harry was leaving the Great Hall.
Muggle Studies' room was very spacious and well thought out, so everyone could see everyone without looking back. In some areas it was somewhat similar to a museum.
Jack was a little surprised to find there was a painting of Ana (Tooth), North and Aster (Bunny) together with egg-golems, elves and a few mini friaries also a Yeti or two in the background. There was another painting with Sandy and The Boogieman: Pitch Black. They were back to back with their arms crossed looking at each other with hostile. Jack looked at them smiling, he painted the one with Toothiana, North and Aster together, and Aster and Jack worked together to make the one with Sandy and Pitch. They both were proud of that painting.
There was another painting that was hanging up and Jack couldn't help but laugh. It was the one Aster painted of Jack. Jack was sitting on his staff, wearing his trade mark blue hoodie with hood up casting his face in shadows, but with his smile he looked very cheeky and full of mischief. There was snow falling around him lightly and he had a snowball in his hand ready to though.
"Hey. The paintings aren't moving" said a young pure-blood witch.
"Of course, there Muggle paintings they don't move" said Hermione already sitting at one of the desks.
"Actually, Aster and I painted them. We like the Muggle style for our paintings, we try to make them look like they're moving without the aid of magic, and it's more of a challenge that way." said Jack to the class. He turning to Ana "I didn't know you brought them with you?"
"Well we are eventually going to learn about Muggle Myths and Legends, maybe before Christmas" Said Ana she pointed to the painting "and they are just some of them, but were going to start with 'Electricity'. Now can anyone who isn't Muggle born tell me what electricity is?"
While Jack was in Muggle Studies Aster had his first class with North where he made the student's that tried to sleep in his class act out what event he was talking about. Which Aster got a laugh out of and was able to show others he knew quite a lot of History. So he wasn't called up play a part… yet! But North was planning to get him up… somehow.
Sandy's first class was Defence Against the Dark Arts with Professor Lupin. Sandy found out that Professor Lupin could read most of the sand symbols he made. The ones that Lupin couldn't, he guessed what they meant making the class all the more fun.
Jack walked to his next class; Transfiguration. Muggle Studies was a rite with the witches and wizards that knew nothing of the non-magic community. The Classroom 1-B or Transfiguration classroom was located on the ground floor around the Middle Courtyard. He walked in and was delighted the classroom itself is big, surrounded by high windows, the big airy room fit well with Jack's nature.
The room had four rows of three desks, and still had enough room for several cages and bookshelves, two chalkboards, and a desk for Professor McGonagall. There were also several candlesticks stand lit behind McGonagall's desk.
This class only had Gryffindors and there were only the ones from Muggle Studies and some from Arithmancy. Jack chose a seat around the middle of the classroom. Finally the others came, just before class begin.
Harry chose a seat right at the back of the room, feeling as though he was sitting in a very bright spotlight. Jack noticed the rest of the class that just had Divination kept shooting furtive glances at Harry, as though he was about to drop dead at any moment. Harry hardly heard what Professor McGonagall was telling them about Animagi, and wasn't even watching when she transformed herself in front of their eyes into a tabby cat with spectacle markings around her eyes.
"Really, what has got into you all today?" Jack flicked his head back to Professor McGonagall as she addressed the class, turning back into herself with a faint pop, and staring around at them all. "Not that it matters, but that's the first time my transformation's not got applause from a class."
Everybody's heads turned towards Harry again, but nobody spoke. Then Hermione raised her had.
"Please, Professor, we've just had our first Divination class, and we were reading the tea leaves and –"
"Ah, of course" said Professor McGonagall, suddenly frowning. "There is no need to say any more, Miss Granger. Tell me, which of you will be dying this year?"
Everyone stared at her.
"Me" said Harry, finally.
"I see" said Professor McGonagall she kept talking about how Professor Trelawney and something about always telling her first class who was going to die for the year. Jack was thinking about how Hermione could have been in Divination and Muggle studies at the same time.
"Potter, so you will excuse me if I don't let you off homework today. I assure you that if you die, you need not hand it in."
Hermione and Jack laughed. Harry felt a bit better. Ron still looked worried, and Lavender whispered, "But what about Neville's cup?"
When the Transfiguration class had finished, they joined the crowd thundering towards the Great Hall for lunch.
"Jack. Jack!" A first year came running to Jack grabbing his hand and dragging him to her friends to eat lunch "We just had Potions and History of Magic. Professor Snape was real mean but your father is great."
Jack laughed as he was taken away from the others, the girl reminded him of Sophie and how she reacts when Bunny is around.
During lunch Sandy snuck over to the Gryffindor table to sit with Jack to 'talk' with the kids he was with.
Hermione slammed her book down on the table so hard that bits of meat and carrot flew everywhere. Jack and Sandy looked over to where the Golden Three were sitting.
'What's wrong with her?' Sandy asked in his own way of talking. Jack shrugged, just as Hermione started to talk to Ron and Harry not too happily and quite loud.
"If being good at Divination means I have to pretend to see death omens in a lump of tea leaves, I'm not sure if I'll be studying it much longer! That lesson was absolute rubbish compared to my Arithmancy class!"
She snatched up her bag and stalked away. Ron frowned at her.
"What's she talking about" he said to Harry "She hasn't been to Arithmency class yet."
"And I bet, according to you she hasn't been to Muggle Studies either." said Jack more to himself than anyone else.
Sandy looked up to Jack a sand question-mark above his head.
"I'll tell you guys latter." Jack grabbed his bag with 'Stranitsy' his The Monster Book of Monsters "Right now I want to go see Professor Hagrid, I have a few questions about Stranitsy. See ya latter Sandy."
Jack left the Hall to get to his next class early. Sandy rolled his eyes, North has been teaching Jack, Russian, so of course Jack decided to name his The Monster Book of Monsters 'Pages' in Russian.
