Harry had sent back a letter saying he would only take Charms, Defense Against the Dark Arts, Transfiguration, Potions, Herbology, Apparition and Healing. The thing that made Harry's scores so good was not because he had Salazar's books but because he a very intelligent dragon living inside him who was more then happy to chip in to help. Dumbledore had been coming in at least twice a week to catch up, drink tea, check the wards he set up and then leave. Each time he came over Harry made sure Tonks was nowhere near him.

It was the day everyone would board the Hogwarts express. Harry, Sirius and Tonks had been spending a lot of time together as they would be hardly seeing each other again for a while. Tonks and Harry told Adam, Oliver, Megan, Katie and the Weasley twins about their relationship. They were all shocked but understood why they wanted to keep it secret. Katie and Megan had dragged Tonks into another room and chatted away about stuff Harry didn't really want to know about while the boys congratulated Harry on scoring a hot bird like Tonks.

Tonks had to go into the Ministry but said goodbye to Harry in a very special way that left him not wanting to go but reminded by her that he needed to he left. Sirius and Harry arrived at King's cross, passed through the entrance and said goodbye by the train. He got on the train to find all of his friends in the same compartment.

They talked about a number of things which included Tonks, living with Sirius, pranks, the chamber of secrets and more studying. By the time they were finished they had arrived at Hogwarts. They took the carages and departed for the castle. Once inside they sat down in the great hall and listened as the first years were sorted into the houses. He saw Hayley and she saw him, they both waved at each other. Hayley's name was called and she went up to be sorted. The hat was put on her head and then eventually called out..."GRYFFINDOR!" The table cheered but no more then the people who knew her. She came over to sit, Harry made room for her next to him and she sat down.

It was then that Dumbledore had a few announcements with the usual stay out of the forbidden forest thing then gave the 2nd generation marauders a certain look. He then announced that Quidditch would not be held this year which caused an uproar but he quickly silenced them and revealed that Hogwarts was hosting the Tri-wizard tournament.

He then introduced the school to the schools of Durmstrang and Beauxbaton who were said to be competing with Hogwarts. Krum had seen Harry and walked over to him to talk but had to quickly leave to get back into formation with his school. Fleur from the Quidditch World cup was there with her school Beauxbaton, she had gone to Harry with a few of her friends and hugged and talked before they left as well. As soon as they were gone Harry noticed that all of the great hall was looking at him. He quickly sat down blushing at the attention and then used his metamorphagus powers to cover the blush up.

Dumbledore cleared his throat and then introduced Barty Crouch who had a few words to say. He revealed that only those of 17 and over were allowed to participate. It caused a bigger uproar then before but was settled down soon. Harry didn't really care, he had no intention of competing but his friend Adam did and was annoyed he couldn't even try to. Then a man came out of a door, it was Mad Eye Moody, Harry knew it was him because he wanted to become an Auror and Moody was a particular famous one, he was then introduced at the new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher. When Harry looked at him more he felt something, something off, it was the same feeling he had with Wormtail but that couldn't be right. Harry thought he would keep an eye open for him. They then had dinner and went to bed.

The next couple of days went smoothly, due to the studying Harry and his friends were doing because of the Chamber of Secret's hidden room they were all doing brilliantly in their work. There grades had gone up and were getting positive feedback from their teachers, of course the most Snape could do was not annoy them but they took it openly.

They had been hearing for a few days that Moody's class was exciting and now they were about to find out. Once we were all seated down and Moody had their attention he said he was going to be teaching the Unforgivable's and then later on wordless magic. It was a brief introduction, he asked the class what the unforgivable's were and their affect. He then demonstrated each curse on a spider he had brought, first the imperious then the Cruciatus then finally the killing curse. When Moody was done he walked over to stand in front of Harry and said that he was the only one known to have survived it, but when Moody had stood in front of him Harry had that same dark feeling, maybe it was due to all the battle's he's been in or exposure to dark magic but he wasn't quite sure about him. Moody had then said that next lesson he was putting the under the imperious curse to see if they could break it.

The next defense lesson was with the Hufflepuff's as usual and it was time to be put under the imperious. He put the curse on to everyone, Oliver and Katie were the only ones to be able to fight it but not off completely. Then it was Harry's turn, he had fought it four times until he finally managed to overcome it.

Over the next month Harry had taken all of his books from the Chamber back into it in exchange for new ones. He had heard from Hermione that seeing that the fourth years were being taught the unforgivable's as well and that when Moody showed them the Cruciatus curse something went wrong with Neville and he had become very sad and depressed. Harry knew it was because it reminded him of his parents which made him think of his golden dragon magic books and hopefully there was something there that could help his parents.

He was in the common room reading over his Dragon Healing book.

A mentis morbum: To free the mind from mental illness.

Recuperabit mentis: Recover the mind.

Harry thought with these two spells he could do it, he could help Neville's parents.

Reviews Please!

By the way I have some bad news. I have been diagnosed with something and it has made me quite sick and not really in the mood for writing, hence the short chapter. Once I have been healed I will have more chapters up but I don't know when that will be, doctors said I should be better around a month or so cause it will take some time for my body to be healed.

Cya in a month!
