I am so sorry everyone. Something went wrong with my computer and I finally got it up and running. Sorry for the wait. Won't happen again!!
"Not my fault you broke yours." I said. I stuck my tongue out at him playfully. He went to grab it but I quickly put my tongue back inside my mouth.
"I didn't break it thank you very much." The doctor said with in a know it all tone. He then held up a piece of bacon to make a point.
"It was broken when I got it." He said while wagging the bacon at me.
"Of course." I said while grabbing the piece of bacon. I bit half of it and then the Doctor took it out of my hands.
"Mine." He said while finishing off the bacon.
The students were dismissed for classes.
"Come on Jack. Classes to teach." I said. I stood up started to walk out. Jack caught up and we walked down to the Defense Against The Dark Art's classroom.
"Hello class. I'm professor Laces." I said addressing the class.
"And I'm Professor Harkness." Jack said.
"We're the new Defense Against the Dark Arts teachers." I said while sitting on the corner of the desk. Jack sat behind the desk.
"What year is this?" Jack asked the class.
A couple hands went up. "Yes. You with the long hair. What's your name?"
"Carmen and this is first year." She said confidently. I smiled to myself knowing that such a young girl had so much confidence.
"Good. So we'll start off with the basics." I said while standing up. "Since it's the first day of this year and for you guys, we'll start off with simple and humorous spells." I said while walking around the desk.
"Everyone have a wand?" Jack asked.
A choruses of 'yes's' filled the room. "Very good. Lets get started shall we?" I said with a smile. "The first spell we are going to talk about it 'Avis'. This spell will conjure up a small flock of birds. Jack if you would." I said.
Jack took out his wand that we received this morning. "Avis." He said clearly. Out of his wand came a flock of tiny birds. They flew around the classroom twittering. I could hold back a smile as all the children looked up at the birds in amazement.
"Good job Jack." I said while turning towards him.
"Now I want everyone to give it a go. Remember to speak clearly and don't point the wands at anyone." I said while sitting on the desk again. "We'll work on this for about ten minutes and then we'll move onto another spell."
I turned to Jack. "How did you know how to do that? I've been playing with mine all morning and I can't find a way to work it." I asked.
"I don't know. Honestly that was the first time I even tried to use mine." He said.
"Lucky." I mumbled.
I turned back to the children. "Oi! I said NO pointing wands at each other." I said to a boy.
I turned back to Jack. "How long did you travel with the Doctor?"
"About 3 months Earth years but it was about a year or two on the TARDIS." He said. I could tell that he was recalling a memory. His eyes became unfocused and he leaned back a bit.
"Why don't you tell me what you remember most from traveling with the Doctor?" I said.
"It was after the Doctor and Rose rescued me from my own ship. We were starting a new adventure. We were on our way to some planet when we got sucked into some time vortex or something. Anyways we ended up on different TV shows in the future. It was fun knowing that I was on TV, but then the two robots wanted to cut my head off and replace it with a dog's head. I luckily got out. The Doctor was on Big Brother and he got out. Then Rose was on the Weakest Link. She actually got blown up. Luckily and kind of unluckily she ended up on a Dalek's ship."
"Wow some adventure. Did you ever get Rose back?" I asked curiously.
"Yeah. That was the day I became immortal. From that day on I can't die. No matter what happens."
"Wow. I'm so sorry." I said while placing my hand on his shoulder.
"Its ok. I've learned to live with it. We should probably move on with the lesson though."
"Oh right. Forgot about them. Wouldn't make much of a mother would I? Forgetting the kids." I said with a laugh.
"Ok class. Next spell we are going to learn is the Bat-Bogey Hex. With this one you will need a partner. Don't worry since you lots aren't as experience yet they won't hurt you. They will actually just tickle you. I need you to say it clearly like the last one. 'Bat Bogey'. (Not quite sure what you say) Go on. We will practice this for five minutes." I sat back and watched as each student got their boogers turned into bats.
"This curse is disgusting." I commented.
"Yeah it is." Jack agreed.
