Chapter 4: Staff Meeting

"...On the date of August 27, 1997 Harry Potter and Hermione Granger are hereby admitted to the Order of the Phoenix." Professor McGonagall read to the remains of the Order.

"Thank you." Hermione said excitedly. It had been about 3 weeks since the incident at Diagon Alley and Hermione had gotten over her father's wrath.

"Now Harry, Hermione I would like to speak to you about that thing that Miss. Granger carries in her stomach." Dumbledore greeted them at the door leading to the corridors outside the Room of Requirement.

"Yes Professor?" They said in unison as the three of them walked to Dumbledore's office.

"Obviously we need to arrange who will take care of the baby while you are in classes. As well as some improvements upon the castle and activities this year. Hermione I would like to tell you that since you have had full marks since you arrived here at Hogwarts that you are eligible to skip your final year go immediately to your NEWTS and become an assisstant professor to any subject you would like. With the exception of Defense against the Dark arts due to the fact that as you know that position is filled. "

"Are there any benefits to it." Hermione asked questionably.

Before Dumbledore had time to reply to Hermione's question Harry answered it.

"No curfew, your own quarters next to your teachers, ability to give and deduct house points, and relieve students and give students detentions and we all know how much you enjoyed that as a prefect. You will take full control of a class once a week. Or in my case at least 5 times a month because of full moons. You also sit at the staff table attend meetings. YADA YADA YADA. Now what else did you need to talk to us about."

"Ah Yes... Who would you like to be the childs babysitter or nanny."

Harry and Hermione looked at each other and nodded befor replying at coordinated timing. "Mrs. Weasley."

"Alright we will check on her. Now Furthermore Hermione do you accept."

"Yes"

"Alright then we need to talk to the other staff as soon as possible. I will make you aware of when meetings will be held."

Harry and Hermione walked to the Great Hall where a tall semi-muscular man with shining brown hair that was spiked, brown eyes which were hidden behind sunglasses and a necklace with a cross made out of white gold was sitting playing an acoustic guitar.

"Just drive, you slam the door and so do I

Tongue tied, from all the little things

And they're the reason that I scream

I needed you,

Probably as bad as I need another hole in the head

Was I mean to you?

Car keys in your hand

I believe that you would leave me for dead..." It took him a while before he noticed Harry there, "hey Harry, Hermione."

"Hey Riku. Wheres Andy and Erica."

Riku snorted and nodded towards the Hufflepuff Table where a young man with a light brown hair color that was laying flat hazel eyes was kissing a rather pretty female with blonde hair and blue eyes. "I'll bet you the Hufflepuff's will be pissed when they find out about that. And before you ask Mom's waking Jamie up." He began to tune his guitar as Hermione and Harry laughed and looked at the door where Melissa was pulling a young woman with black hair and grey eyes wearing a black halter top and black jeans with chains on its pockets.

"Have you ever wondered why in a dream you can touch the fallen sky

or fly to the heavens that watch over you telling you its all voodoo. Voodoo Too" Jamie smiled at Riku as he played her current favorite song. The thunder rolled outside signaling a storm later in the day.

"Potter and the Insufferable Know-It-All are supposed to go to the staff room immediatley." Harry groaned as he turned to find Severus Snape standing in the door-way.

Harry and Hermione ran as fast as they could of course Harry about a mile in front of his friend stopping to let her catch up they decided to walk the whole 2 centimeters to the staff room.

"Glad you could make it. We will now draw your tutor you will assist Miss Granger." Dumbledore Greeted them delightfully as he reached into the sorting hat and withdrew a piece of parchment. "The new subject for Hermione Granger to assist in is none other than Transfiguration. Now on to more business. This year Hogwarts celebrates it's five thousandth aniversary. Now we plan to have a ball any ideas for entertainment."

"Riku knows how to play the guitar. He and Andy have a little band with Erica. How about them." Melissa chirped in first as Snape brought up their relationship. "That's provided the imbeciles dont start making love on the stage." She looked confused yet laughed all the same.

"I agree with Melissa, Riku seriously knows how to sing." Harry said Hermione agreed full heartedly.

"Well we would like to hear him first." McGonagall exclaimed over a minor racket started from Remus telling jokes.

"Alright. Then chances are it will be Riku and the others but Drinks." Dumbledore spoke again.

"Punch" The entire staff said at the same time.

"Food?" Dumbledore asked yet again.

"Do the thing we did at the Yule Ball." Harry suggested.

"Alright."

"We should hold it on the day before Christmas Break." Hermione brought up an idea.

"Everything else should be decided by the prefects. I hereby call this meeting closed."

Everyone left in a rush Harry and Hermione walked to the Great Hall where they watched a few teachers gathered around a small stage set up in the middle of the hall. The stage had a Guitar a drum set and a bass guitar set up on it. Riku sat on the stage setting up a headset.

"Testing alright lets get started." He said before Andy and Erica took there spots at the drums and bass respectively. "Well lets get this over with."

The staff clapped as they bowed on stage. McGonagall rushed towards them and was the first to invite them to play at the Ball which was accepted.

September 1st drew nearer Dumbledore had already taken them to go get supplies. Harry and Hermione had began to help Lupin and McGonagall with lesson plans. Riku was doing his usual sit around and write songs. 3 out of the nine million he actually liked. Erica and Andy were cutting down on their making out as they began working on a duet for the ball and Jamie was doing nothing but sulking in corners and writing poems and such, Melissa when she wasn't getting everything ready for the new school year was often helping her kids with whatever they needed. Finally, the day was there and Harry began seeing more of everybody Flitwick needed to ask Harry to help in setting up his class a few times. To Harry's surprise Snape was laughing a lot and seen with Melissa just about everywhere in the hall. Hermione had walked in on a compromising position between Erica and Andy and Riku was finally cutting down on his songwriting. Harry and Hermione were told to guide the first years (or midgets if your Ron) across the lake arriving there relativly quicker than they ever remembered the boats getting there. As they entered they heard the school song being played by a guitar most likely at the request of Dumbledore. Harry and Hermione looked at each other. "Riku" They said as they entered the hall for the feast.
