Harry woke and stretched out. He'd slept better than he had in years. He made sure the Prefect was still asleep before grabbing his school uniform and going to wash up. He came out in black slacks, black shoes, a white shirt tucked in, and a black over shirt with a high collar it was buttoned all the way up. He tried to flatten his hair but it was useless. He grabbed his bag and stocked it with books. His schedule had been on his bed when he'd woken up so he knew what to pack.

"Morning." The Prefect was awake. "Already up and dressed?"

"yes, I'm always up early. Thank you for allowing me to sleep here last night. "

"No problem. Let me get ready and we'll go up together okay?"

Harry nodded. He liked it here and wondered if he could stay here.

They walked up to breakfast.

"He's so ugly." they heard someone said, "I heard Potter's father was a real looker but he looks like a hag." it was the red haired boy in his year. Others were laughing. "Look at him he's so short and doesn't he look pale?"

Harry walked to the same table he'd sat at the night before. He took out another sketch pad and began working on his next issue. While eating a little.

The red head was still making fun of him but he didn't pay attention.

The platinum blond Malfoy came in and walked over.

"So how was it sleeping in the sewers last night, Potter?" he asked loudly.

"I slept very well thank you." Harry said, absently, "The Prefect gave me a nice warm bed to sleep in when you kicked me out of the room. " People began whispering Malfoy began getting mad like the red haired boy had. "Please leave me alone, I've got work to do . "

He nibbled at his food as he worked he was worrying over being able to do his classwork and do his work by the deadline and where he was going to sleep and if someone found out how he was treated at home. his stomach was a mess right now but he knew that he needed to eat or he wouldn't be doing anything except seeing the school nurse.


He was thankful that someone had saw fit to give him a map of the school it made finding his first class very easy. He sat in the very back and fixed his glasses again. This was a History class. He was good at History he guessed. He was doing a Manga on the Blitz right now. It was an educational piece that had also been labeled as a drama piece. His editor had told him the polls showed it was popular and the reviews said that it had so much depth and emotion that no one could believe a child of 11 had written or even drew it. Other first years started arriving as he worked.

"Drawing again?" the red head asked . "Is that an explosion?"

He seemed interested.

"Yeah." Harry said, still working. "I'm trying to capture what London was like during the Blitz . " He sighed and shook his head. "I just can't get it right though."

"Well, maybe today's lesson will help you. " Everyone jumped. Harry tried to put his work away but the teacher grabbed it and flipped through it. "Oh, ho! So you're the one who does this . Oh, I'm a huge fan! You'll sign my copies for me wont you? "

"Uh...sure." Harry blinked getting his sketch book back and tucking it away pulling out a notebook and writing pens along with his book. "No problem, Prof... "

"Binns." the man said, turning to the class and heading for the front. "My name is Professor Cuthbert Binns and I will be your History Teacher for the rest of your stay at this school. I was going to start with something else but seeing as Mr. Potter brought up the Blitz lets start with that! I even have some footage I will round up for next class!"

He sounded so enthusiastic about it. Some kids started whispering but then they were hushed and they were set to work copying down notes while he told them about the start of the Blitz.'

"Sir." A bushy brown hair girl said, waving her hand in the air near the end of class. She sounded all snooty. "Aren't we starting in the middle of the war? Shouldn't we start at the beginning?"

"But this is funner." Binns beamed. "We'll cover it all at some point, Miss. Stranger."

"It's Granger."

"Yes, that's what I said."

The girl sweat dropped. The bell rang. They were assigned an essay. Then Harry had his last four manga of this nature sitting in front of him. He ended up sweat dropping. The class watched as he signed each one.

"If you need reference material don't be afraid to ask." Binns laughed shooing Harry from his classroom. " and visit Madam Pince in the library she'll just love you!"

Harry sighed, he hadn't expected that. He wondered what the rest of the day was going to be like.


Looking at his Schedule he found that he had Japanese Culture Class next he was really looking forward to that. So he took off trying to find it. When he finally did he was able to peak inside to see an eighth year class. He slid inside and into the back room. He saw the teacher look at him and head back. Harry's eyes were all for the students that were talking in Japanese while play acting job interviews.

"May I help you? " the teacher asked in English.

"Oh, I'm sorry." Harry looked up at the man. "I'm Harry Potter. I'm in your first year class. I didn't realize I was this early. I guess I had a bit of a break before this class. I'm really looking forward to it. I'll just sit here and be silent until my class comes in if you let me stay. I swear I wont make a noise."

The cocked an eyebrow but nodded. Harry quickly was back to trying to redraw a bomb dropping on a London neighborhood.

What class do you think the other teachers from the books should teach? I already have Severus and Remus lined up and roughly Sirius. Roughly!

Minerva and Flitwick are causing me problems though I don't know what to have them teach. Well review me or PM if you can help.
