I don't own Twilight or Harry Potter.
Chapter six- Talons and Tea Leaves
The next morning Alice and Jasper headed down for breakfast in the Great Hall. Some of the first years were surprisingly already in the Great Hall. Jade DiLaurentis was sitting at the Slytherin table staring at Jasper. He just ignored her, and kept on smiling at Alice. Professor McGonagall walked down the aisle towards them as she handed schedules to the students in Gryffindor. Alice and Jasper looked at their schedules and saw that they had Ancient Ruins, Transfiguration, and Arithmancy this morning. They had Care of Magical Creatures in the afternoon.
They ate their breakfast while the rest of the house was looking at their own schedules. After they finished he helped her up as they headed back to the common room to gather their books for their morning classes. Soon they quickly headed to Ancient Ruins. As Alice and Jasper walked towards their first class she saw Ron and Harry headed towards Divination. Jasper knew that Alice's legs would be a little weaker than last year, so he knew that she needed a little help.
Alice and Jasper reached the classroom first. After about ten minutes or so the rest of the class reached the classroom door. The door opened and the class walked in. Of course, Alice and Jasper sat in the front of the classroom. They got out their books to read the first chapter before the class began. No one in the class knew besides Jasper that Alice had an eidetic memory. She knew that this class could be relatively easy for her. Professor Aurora Hallowell was the teacher for Ancient Ruins.
She automatically gave Alice ten points for reading the first chapter. The class read the first chapter for the first fifteen minutes of class. For the rest of the class they took notes about what Ancient Ruins actually is. "For homework one page summary about the first chapter using your notes from today. Class is dismissed." The bell rang as just as she said what they homework.
However, in Harry's first class was a different story. For his first class he and Ron were reading tealeaves. They were just guessing what was in their teacups. Professor Sybil Trelawney gasped when she looked into Harry's cup. "What's wrong Professor?" Parvati Patil asked.
"Mr. Potter you have the grim."
"What's the Grim?" Dean Thomas asked.
Professor Trelawney then went on about what the Grim was. Finally the bell rang stopping her dreamy voice. "Class dismissed."
Fifteen minutes later the third year Gryffindor's reached the Transfiguration classroom. Professor McGonagall had them read chapter one in their book for fifteen minutes. The students who were in Divination explained what had happened. Professor McGonagall told them what Professor Trelawney does to introduce a new class. An hour later the bell rang. "Ms. Potter may I talk to you for a second?"
"Sure, what do you need, Professor?"
"As you know I am Godmother. Are you sure you are be able to keep yourself safe in Hogsmead this year?"
"Yes, Professor."
"Ms. Potter you are able to come and visit me if you need anything. Also you may call me Minerva when we're alone."
"Thanks Professor."
Alice left the classroom and headed to Arithmancy. When she reached the classroom, Jasper was waiting there for her. Together they walked into the classroom. Professor Septima Vector introduced the class to Arithmancy. She had the class read the first chapter of their book. Then for the rest of the class they took notes. Finally the bell rang to single lunch.
Alice and Jasper left the classroom together, and walked to the Great Hall. Both of them were hungry. They knew they had to be ready to help Hagrid with his class after lunch. Jasper found something very nourishing to eat while Alice decided to have a combination of nourishing and sugary. She wanted to have something that would give her enough energy to last through the entire lesson. Finally they headed down to Hagrid's while everyone else was still having lunch.
Alice and Jasper hurried down to Hagrid's hut. She knocked on the door and waited for a few minutes. Soon Hagrid opened the door to see his two young helpers for the year. He welcomed them into his small but welcoming hut. He told his two helpers what his first lesson was about. Ten minutes later the rest of the students could be seen walking down towards Hagrid's hut.
The class began with everyone trying to open their books. "How do we open our books anyway?" Draco Malfoy sneered.
"Before we begin I have two helpers with me this year, and they are allowed to take points off. You stroke the spine of course, and ten points from Slytherin." Once the class all had his or her books open Hagrid explained what the lesson was going to be. "Now todays lesson is Hippogriffs. The one thing that you must know about Hippogriffs is that if you insult them they will attack you." Obviously Malfoy wasn't listening. "Twenty points from Slytherin for not listening Mr. Malfoy."
Harry had bowed to Buckbeak and now he was petting the beak. "As you can see in order to get near a Hippogriff you must bow to it. Remember a Hippogriff has very sharp talons, so don't be an idiot."
The class ended without any further incident except the one with Malfoy who was foolish enough to insult Buckbeak. He lost another twenty points for not following directions. He even got a detention with Filch. Alice told the class what their homework was for the next time. She hoped that everyone would listen during class from now on.
Jasper and Alice walked hand in hand back up to the castle. They were going back to Gryffindor tower to work on some homework. Dinner arrived about an hour later, and the two soul mates walked down to the Great Hall together. After dinner they decided to visit Hagrid, which was the wrong thing to do.
Please Review. Wow Malfoy got into trouble for what he did. I still need help with deciding what Alice's Boggart going to be. What will happen to Buckbeak? When do you want Alice to find out that Professor Lupin is her godfather? Please put your answers in the box below. I know Bella and Edward haven't been in the story lately, but they will be. Trust me they will be.
