Chapter 6 -

Larissa's first week at Hogwarts didn't go as well as she would have hoped. No one believed Harry, that Voldemort (except the obvious - Larissa, Hermione, most of the teachers, and the Weasleys). And the Defence Against the Dark Arts lesson? Well...

'Larissa!' Hermione yelled across the field, as she ran over to her

'Hey Hermione,'

'Lissa, how did your first Defence lesson go?' Hermione asked breathlesly

'We're not allowed to use magic at all.'

'Us neither, so I was thinking... We need a teacher, a proper teacher.'

'Who?'

'Harry?'

'Harry? That's brilliant, but he'll need some- a lot of persuading.'

'Yeah, so i was thinking, we could ask him while we are in Hogsmead? It's at the weekend.'

Larissa's eyes lit up at the mention of Hogsmead, it was the first time she would be able to go. 'Okay, I've got to go to Arithmancy, I'll see you later. Bye!' she called dashed off.

'How was Arithmancy?' Hermione asked at dinner later on that evening, eager to know what Larissa thought about one of her favourite subjects.

'It was really intresting.'

'What's really intresting?' Ron asked, Harry was not paying attention.

'Cho apparently.' Larissa said, looking at her god brother, who was obviously smitten.

'Huh?' Harry asked, at the mention of Cho's name.

'Why don't you just ask her out?' Larissa asked

'I can't. She's not over Cedric yet, and I was the one that was there when he died, it wouldn't be right.'

'Excited about going to Hogsmeade?' Harry asked as Larissa handed her permission form to Professor McGonagall.

'Yes!' Larissa said, as Harry took her hand and they walked into Hogsmeade.

Hermione decided they should go around a bit first, and then have a butter beer before approching the teaching matter with Harry. They went into Honeydukes, and Larissa immedietly started to run around the shop, trying to get a look at everything, she hadn't loosened her grip on Harry's hand so he was being pulled along behind her, as she attempted to memorise (or so Harry thought) to memorise each and every item, down to the last Acid Pop. She bought a chocolate frog, and a packet of Bertie Botts Every Flavour Beans, which they were going to have some fun with later on that evening, before exciting the shop and going along to Zonko's Joke Shop. They then went to the Shreiking Shack, and they went all but inside, because they knew that it wasn't really haunted at all. Larissa dragged them around a few more places, before recieving a stern look from Hermione and she then looked sheepish and they headed to the Three Broomsticks for a butter beer.

'So, Harry...' Larissa started, she then recieved a take-it-slow look from Hermione and then coninued 'I heard Umbridge gave you a detention, how did that go?'

'Not too well,' Harry replied, he then quickly tried to hide his hand but not before Larissa could grab it.

'She made you use a blood quill?'

'How did you know about those Liss?' Ron asked, completely interrupting the plan

'I'm a Black.'

'I'm a pureblood too.'

'Yeah, but you're a bunch of blood traitors,' she said with a smirk 'almost all of my family are death eaters. And with a house like mine, you find things in the attic and places. We haven't actually cleaned out all of the rooms. Of course, we cleaned out all of the ones that we use, and re decorated - because the Blacks have a truly aweful sence of style.'

'Oh.'

'Anyway, Harry.' Larissa said, quickly, 'we were thinking, we're not going to learn anything with her teaching us.'

'And with Voldemort back,' Hermione said, ignoring Ron's wince. 'We need to be able to defend ourselves.'

'We need you to teach us.' Larissa said simply

'Me? Who'd want to be taught by me? I'm a nutter, remember?'

'You can't be worse than old toad face.' Ron interjected

'We've asked a couple of people to meet us at the Hogs Head,' Hermione said hesitently

'You're not even giving me a choice?'

'The time for choices are over Harry.' Larissa said, pulling Harry up. She took his hand and lead him out of the Three Broomsticks. They made their way down to the Hogs Head, where they were met by about twenty people.

'Erm, hi.' Hermione said, standing up. 'Well, you all know why we're here, we need a teacher.'

'A proper teacher.' Larissa said just loud enough for everyone to hear.

By the end of the meeting they had a list of people, with their names written down on the list to be part of 'Dumbledores Army' or the 'DA'.
