Friday night of his first week back and he had gotten detention, and with Sakura while in Snape's class and the worse part he had to be up and at her office at five in the morning tomorrow. Harry was starting to think that he would have been better off with detention with Snape. When he told Ron and Hermione about this they just told him he was imaging things and it wouldn't be that bad.

Saturday morning rolled around and Harry made his way to Sakura's office, he knocked on the door, "enter," she called he opened the door and inside the room was covered in orange.

"What is it that I will be doing Professor?" he asked not seeing anything for him to do.

"Oh…your work isn't here; you will be cleaning the owlery…without magic, and Snape-Senpai said for I should also say no gloves and when you are done he needs some flobberworms sorted," she added seeing the down casted look on his face.

"Why does it have to be so early?" Harry asked still every tired.

"Oh I am sorry what time would be better for you?" she asked smiling.

"Haha…I get it that's a part of the punishment," Harry said frowning as she continued to smile at him.

"After I clean the owlery…am I free to go?"

"No don't forget the flobberworms," she said getting up from her desk he, saw her place a book in her desk as she did.

"Why do I have to do that I thought you were the one giving me detention?" Harry asked.

"I am but Snape just told me something that he needed done…so I told him that I am sure that you wouldn't mind helping him out."

It was nearly ten when he had finished cleaning owlery, and it took another hour for the flobberworms. But it wasn't that bad with her keeping him company, she was a lot better company than Snape was. Even thou she was giving him detention she was still her usual cheery self.

"Alright Potter you are free to go but I expect to see you in my class today at after lunch," she said passing him.

"Okay Sakura," he said not thinking.

"It is Professor or Sensei Namikaze, if you ever see me outside of school feel free to call me Sakura," Naruko said, "because I would hate to have to put you in detention again," she said winking at him.

"Would you really put me in detention for calling you by your first name?"

"No, but that doesn't mean that you can," and with that she left Snape's office he just watched her go.

"Remember Mr. Potter," a cool voice said behind him, "she is your teacher."

Harry turned to see Snape standing there with a smirk on his face, "I don't know what you are talking about I know she is my teacher."

"Of course you don't," Snape said still smirking Harry quickly got to his feet and walked out of the office deciding that he need to shower.

That afternoon Harry, Ron, Hermione made their way to the Great Hall where the lessons would be taking place. Harry noticed Dean Thomas and Ginny making their way into the Great Hall after Michael Corner and Cho Chang.

Naruko was already in the great hall along with Snape to Harry great displeasure. After everyone had taken their seats Naruko stood up beaming at all the students who had come, mostly guys by the look of things and the few girls that did come seemed to be there to keep an eye on their boyfriends more than anything else.

"Hello, today I won't be teaching you much… since I only have you one day a week I thought we could use today to get to know each other a little better," she said smiling warmly, "so I want you to get up one at a time and tell me your name, your likes, dislikes, hobbies and dreams…if you would be so kind."

"Professor why don't you go first," a girl from the crowd called up.

"Very well I am Namikaze-Sensei, I like many things, I dislike other things, hobbies I have a few, and as for my dream… I had a funny one last night," she said smiling but no one else was they all looked up at her confused. "Snape-Senpai, why don't you go next?"

"I am Professor Snape, I like Hogwarts and my house my dislikes…" his eyes fell on Ron Hermione and lingered on Harry, "my hobbies reading my dream is to serve at Hogwarts for as long as possible."

After all the introductions had been made there was only a little time left and a student raised their hand.

"How did you become a teacher…I mean you are barely older than us," said a slow drawl that Harry immediately recognized as Malfoy.

"I can show you if Snape-Senpai has no objections," she asked turning to Snape. Who said nothing and she took this to mean it was alright, "Tell me Malfoy do you consider yourself skilled?"

"Yes, I am a prefect after all," he said walking to the front of the class.

"So you know how to duel?" she asked a dangerous smirk on her lips, that went unmissed by most of the student body, but Malfoy hadn't seemed to notice.

"Of course I do. So how about we make this interesting," Malfoy said.

"How so?" Naruko asked.

"When I win a date," Malfoy said smirking at her.

"And if I win, you lose fifty points from your house," she said.

"Very well," Malfoy said pulling out his wand. Naruko hadn't reached for hers yet. Malfoy frowned for a second then a smirk appeared back on his face, "so you have decided to give up? Smart girl."

"No, I am just giving you a handy cap," she said then turned to Snape, "would you be so kind?"

"Bow to your opponent," Snape said and they did as they were told. "On the count of three begin…one…two…three."

Malfoy shouted a jinx, but before anyone knew what happened, Malfoy was standing there frozen Naruko's wand out pointing at him. In a blink of an eye she had pulled out her wand blocked his jinx and used her own on him all without saying a single word.

"I think I win," she said stunning everyone.

"She is scary," Ron said wondering how anyone could be that fast.

"I guess we know why she graduated when she was twelve," Hermione said just as shocked as Ron. Harry couldn't say anything all he could do was nod and think that it would be in his best interest to not get on her bad side. With a flick of her wand she removed the body bind spell she had placed on Malfoy who looked utterly embarrassed at how bad he had just gotten beat.

"Class dismissed," she called out.

Harry Ron and Hermione left, "did you see that smile she had right before she fought Malfoy?" Ron asked, "It was like she was a completely different person."

"I think she could have taught Defense against the Dark Arts if she was older," Harry said.

"I don't think it is a matter of her age," Hermione said.

"What are you saying, Hermione, why else wouldn't Dumbledore let her teach it?" Ron asked.

"I don't know but I think he might not trust her, I mean, he trust Snape more than anyone and Snape is always with her. I think Dumbledore is letting her stay here for some other reason than to teach us," Hermione said in a whisper.

"She seem trust worthy to me," Ron said defensively.

"Me too, but think about it have you ever seen her without Snape around?"

"Yes, this morning for my detention…" then he remembered Snape had been there or at least a part of the time but he decided not to bring that little point up.

"You have a lesson with Dumbledore tonight so you can ask about her then," Hermione said. Then Harry remembered that he did have a lesson with Dumbledore. He started to wonder what the Headmaster was going to teach him.
