Vampires
The Golden Trio were lined up outside the DADA classroom waiting to be let inside, Hermione was standing upright her eyes bright, whereas Ron was slouching against the wall complaining.
"I don't see why we had to get here half an hour before the lesson started."
"We're not 30 minutes early! We're only 15! And besides I thought you wanted to get a good seat." Hermione huffed.
"Yes, to our lesson. Not the one before!" Ron countered. "We missed lunch too."
Just then (as if fate wanted to shut Ron and Hermione up, just like Harry did) Professor Bondevik and Professor Popescu came down the corridor.
"How long have you three been here?" Professor Popescu asked when he saw the trio.
"Not that long."
The look on Ron's face stopped Hermione from continuing the conversation with the Professors. "Not that long! We've been here for 15 minutes!" He muttered.
"Well, come on in then." Professor Bondevik said, unlocking the door.
The Golden Trio immediately took three seats at the front and watched as the rest of the class slowly piled in.
"Okay, so is everyone here. Good." Professor Bondevik took the register.
"We are your new DADA professors. This is Professor Bondevik and I am Professor Popescu." The Romanian started writing on the blackboard.
"And today we will be teaching you about vampires." Professor Bondevik said, a slight smirk on his otherwise expressionless face.
"Yes," Professor Popescu looked slightly upset compared to his normally energetic personality. "Now who can tell me the main properties of a vampire?"
As usual Hermione's hand shot straight into the air, eager to impress the new professors. "Vampires have incredible speed, great strength and as everyone knows they drink human blood."
While Hermione was sprouting the information Harry noticed Professor Bondevik's smirk grow, and Professor Popescu grew more and more upset.
"Okay I'm-I mean vampires can only use super speed for a short amount of time, quite similar to a cheetah. The strength thing is a myth, according to Aleksander I'm a weakling. And not all vampires drink human blood, quite a few call themselves vegetarian and only drink animal blood."
While Professor Popescu explained this, to his right Harry noticed Hermione looked fairly upset at being wrong.
"So," Professor Bondevik came to the front of the class. "Does anyone know anymore traits?"
This time Lavender Brown put her hand up. "Their skin sparkles in the sun."
Professor Popescu was in front of her desk in a shot. "What did you just say?" He was practically growling in anger and by the looks of Lavender's face she was truly frightened.
"I sa-said th-they have sp-sparkly skin in th-the sun."
Professor Popescu stood up straight and pointed to the door. "Out."
When Lavender had left the room Professor Popescu addressed the rest of the class. "If anyone else believes that the vampires in Twilight are correct representations of vampires, you can leave too,"
There was a moment of silence before Parvati went outside to join her friend.
The rest of the class went smoothly even though it was clear Professor Popescu was still slightly angry.
However that was until Professor McGonagal came into the class. "Excuse me Professors, but why are Miss Brown and Miss Patil standing outside?"
"The have greatly insulted me and many more people in the world."
"How so Professor?"
"They believe that, Edward Cullen is a real vampire."
"Excuse me?" Harry couldn't tell if Professor McGonagal was just confused or angry aswell.
But Professor Bondevik decided to save his college from the wrath that was Professor McGonagal. "We were discussing the traits of vampires when Miss Brown said a vampires skin sparkled in the sun. Now it is a known fact that Vladimir gets greatly insulted when Twilight is mentioned so Miss Brown was sent outside."
"I'm not that bad." Professor Popescu tried to defend himself but the look he got from both Professor McGonagal and Professor Bondevik shut him up. "If they apologise and don't mention the monstrosity again, they can come back in."
"Very well then, if you don't mind I will take my leave." There was silence as Professor McGonagall left the classroom until Professor Popescu broke it. "If anyone mentions Twilight again you'll have a detention where you will manually burn any of the books I can get my hands on, understand?"
Just as the class nodded the bell went, signalling the end of class. "Class dismissed. I can't wait to see you next week."
As the class filled out the trio started talking about the strangest lesson they have ever had.
"What the bloody hell was that about?"
"Wow, Professor Popescu really took a lot of that stuff to heart. You don't think he could be a vampire could you?" Hermione wondered.
Harry looked at her. "Of course not, haha, come on Hermione that's ridiculous."
"Yes, I guess your right. I'm just over thinking things aren't I."
"Yeah come on Hermione." Ron laughed. "Professor Popescu a vampire, that's one of the most hilarious things I've ever heard."
