The next morning

“Wake up” someone said. I slightly opened my eyes and saw Willow. “Time for our first official day of school” she said. I smiled. I slowly moved the covers off and sat up. “First class we have is Defense against the Dark Arts with Professor Moody” Willow said. I nodded and slowly got out of bed and I stretched. I went to my suitcase. I got out black skinny jeans, a black tank top, and a blue and black striped shirt. I grabbed my underwear, socks, and bra. I went to the bathroom and changed out of my pajamas. I walked up to the mirror and looked at myself. This outfit was one of my favorites. I opened the door and saw Willow waiting for me. She smiled and made a silly face. I laughed and made one back. “You know if Snape says that line in Potions today I won’t be able to think straight. I’m going to see him saying how he is bloody fabulous” I said reenacting her. She laughed. “I won’t be able to either” she said. Cho came in. “Look who is finally up” she said with a small laugh. “Yes she finally is” Willow said. I grabbed my hair brush and began to brush my hair. “Come on hurry up! Don’t forget your robes! Hurry! I’m hungry” Willow said. I looked back to her. “I just need to do my makeup” I said. She groaned and fell onto her bed. “I’ll see you guys down in the hall” Cho said as she left. I quickly applied some eyeliner and got my black school robe. “There I’m done” I said. “FINALLY” Willow said. “Come on. Let’s go eat” I said. We left the common room and began down a staircase which began to move on its own. I froze. “What in the world?” I asked. “Come on. It does that as usual” Willow said. I continued down the stairs. We made to the solid ground. We walked into the hall and saw the ceiling was a clear sunny day. “Wow” I said looking at it. I almost ran into someone. The person was dressed in black. “Sorry Professor” Willow said grabbing my arm pulling me back. I looked away from the ceiling to the person. “Sorry, it’s just I was in awe over the ceiling” I said as I looked at him. He was the one from the Leaky Cauldron! He had to of overheard Willow’s joke about him. I gulped. “Be careful where you are walking!” he snapped. “Yes sir” I said. He rushed by us. “That is Professor Snape” Willow said. “He was at the Leaky Cauldron the same day we were. He was the one we passed at the bar” I said. “What?!” Willow asked loudly. I nodded. “Great, well potions is going to be horrible this year” she said. “Yes it will be” I said. “He is going to hate us and pick on us all year” Willow said. “Well maybe not too bad for me because of my dad” Willow said. I nodded not fully understanding. We joined the other Ravenclaws at our table. We greeted Cho and the twins. Luna was nowhere to be seen. Breakfast appeared and we all began to eat.

After eating

Willow and I began to make our way to Professor Moody’s classroom. It was up a couple flights of stairs. We came to the classroom Willow said was his. We also had class with the Gryffindor’s and Slytherin’s as Willow had told me. We walked in and sat down. “Well ladies, look like we have a class together” someone said. I turned and saw Fred and George. They took the seats behind us. In followed Hermione, Ron, and Harry with some other students. We turned and started to have a conversion. “I wonder what Mad Eye is going to teach us. I mean if it’s like every other year he will be gone by the end of the year” George said. “Really what happened to the other teachers?” I asked. “Well the one in our second year turned out to be helping You-Know-Who, and then the next one was a fraud. Then last years was a werewolf” Fred said. “Really how in the world was he able to get into the school?” I asked. Why would they let a werewolf teach? I heard the door close. I looked back and saw Professor Moody. He went to the front of the class. “Alastor Moody. Ex-Auror. Ministry malcontent. And your new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher. I am here because Dumbledore asked me. End of story, goodbye, the end. Any questions?” he paused waiting to see if there were any questions. “When it comes to the Dark Arts, I believe in a practical approach.  But first, which of you can tell me how many Unforgivable Curses there are?” he asked. “Three, sir” Hermione said. She looked upset. “And they are so named?” he questioned going up to the small chalk board. “Because they are unforgivable. Use any one of them will” she said. “Will earn you a one-way ticket to Azkaban. Correct. Now the Ministry says you're too young to see what these curses do. I say different! You need to know what you're up against! You need to be prepared! You need to find another place to put your chewing gum besides the underside of your desk, Mr. Finnigan!” he shouted. Everyone turned to look. “Aw, no way! The old codger can see out the back of his head!” the boy said, Seamus, I believe was his name. Professor Moody turned and threw a piece of chalk at him. “And hear across classrooms!” He yelled. “I’m here to call the class rules! So, which curse shall we see first? Weasley!” he shouted. I began to zone out. The lesson dragged on and they talked. Willow was real interested. She nudged me. I looked at her. “Come on, class is over” she said. “Oh” I said. I grabbed my bag and books. “Now to potions” Willow groaned. “It can’t be that bad” I said. “Are you kidding?!” Fred said. “Potions is always the worst” George said. “I doubt it guys” I said. “Besides you gotta give Snape a break. I mean he has to stand children all day. In my school its ‘normal’ for a teacher to not like the students” I said as we walked down the stairs to the dungeons. “He isn’t just mean. I don’t even know what to call him” Fred said. I turned and began to walk backwards. “Call him Professor, you might not like him but that doesn’t mean you have to be so rude to him, give him a break” I said. They all stopped. “What are you guys staring at?” I asked as I turned around to see. I bumped into someone. I saw what it was. It was Snape. He had his arms crossed and was staring down at me. “Oh um hello Professor” I said. He raised an eyebrow. “Uh sorry for bumping into you” I said taking a step back. He said nothing but turned and went into his class. I looked back at everyone. They began to laugh. “What?” I asked. “You really pissed off Snape” Fred said. “Squeak squeak mother fucker.” said Willow. How was this funny? I turned and continued into the classroom. Willow followed. “Do you know if we have assigned seats?” I asked Willow. “I’m not sure” she said. I looked and saw Snape sitting at his desk. He glanced up to me then back to his papers. I looked to Willow. “Don’t you dare” she said. I turned back to Snape. I began up to his desk. Willow grabbed my arm. “Are you insane?” she asked turning me to her. “Possibly” I said getting out of her grip. I continued closer to his desk. I must say I was nervous. “Um excuse me Professor” I started. He looked to me. “Yes?” he said. “I was curious to know if we were getting assigned seats or not?” I asked. I could hear Willow and George talking in the background. His expression changed slightly. “I am assigning seats but if you are wondering if I am going to separate you from Miss Black then no” he said. “I appreciate that Professor. Thank you” I said. I heard some gasp. “You’re welcome” he said quietly and looked back to his papers. I couldn’t help but smile. I turned and began back to Willow. “You seriously are brave” George said. “Surprised you aren’t in Gryffindor” Fred said. “Why? Because I talked to a teacher?” I asked. “Not just any teacher” Willow said. “He used to be a death eater, as the rumor goes” Fred whispered in my ear. “It’s a rumor” I said. People began to come into the classroom. Willow and I sat down. Snape put up his quill and came down from his desk. He assigned the seats. “Sit” he said as he observed the class. There still were some people out there seats. “Today you shall be choosing a potion and preparing it” he said. Books began to be passed out. If only muggle school was like this. I looked to Willow. “Don’t worry. We will make a fire protection potion it’s pretty simple” she whispered. I nodded. A potion book landed on our desk. Willow began to flip through the book. “Ah” she said as she found it. “Now for the ingredients” she said. “Bursting mushroom, salamander blood, wartcap powder?” I said slightly disgusted. “Yes” Willow said. The ingredients appeared in front of us. “Wow” I said. I looked around. “Where are the cauldrons?” I asked. “I’m not sure” Willow said. “I can ask” I said. “Victoria I’m not sure. I mean” she said. She moved closer. “Snape really gets angry easily. So asking questions probably sets him more to the edge. He doesn’t like us students” she said. “Has anyone ever thought that it’s the students and not him” I said. “Don’t think so Victoria” Fred said. “He pretty much hates everyone probably even the other teachers” George said. I sighed. Maybe something happened that no one knows about. “I’m going to ask where the cauldrons are since we don’t know where they are” I said. I raised my hand. “I can’t watch this” Willow said looking elsewhere. Snape was walking around the room and saw my hand I suspect. He just pointed somewhere. I followed his finger and saw the cauldrons. I smiled and put my hand down. “How many cauldrons do we need?” I asked. “Just one I believe, I think we’re working in pairs” Willow said looking over to me. “Alright” I said. I stood up and began to the front classroom. I walked up and grabbed a cauldron and a holder for it. I began back to our table. “Ya didn’t grab us one?” Fred asked. “No get off your bum and get it. I ain’t your slave” I said. I heard Fred groan. He did however get himself a cauldron. I looked in the cauldron and saw it was empty. I wondered if I could make water appear. I waved my hand over it and to my surprise it filled halfway with water. “Woah” I said. “What?” Willow asked. She has the cauldron had water in it. “How did you do that?” she asked. “I’m not sure, I just waved my hand over it and water appeared” I said. “Wow. Do it again?!” she said. I waved my hand and more water appeared. “Holy crap” Willow said. ‘What’s so wow? “George asked. “Victoria can control water” Willow said. “Like a water bender?” Fred asked. "I suppose” Willow said. I grabbed the ingredients and began to chop them as the book said. Willow was looking at the holder where there was supposed to be a flame. She looked like she was looked hard at it. Suddenly a flame arose in the place. “Did you see that?!” she screamed. “I did!” I said. Snape glared at us. “Guys! I created fire” Willow said. “Huh?” George asked. Fred came up by me and George by Willow. “See I created fire” Willow said pointing to the small flame. “Fire bender then” Fred said. “No way” someone said. I looked and saw it was Hermione. She came over with Ron and Harry not far behind. They were confused. “How can you make fire? That’s advanced magic.” Hermione said. “Silence,” Snape said “I don’t expect you to know all the rules just yet Miss Kenn but the rest of you know the rules.” Snape said sharply. “But professor Willow just made fire and Victoria made water! “Harry exclaimed. “I said SILENCE!” Snape roared. I jumped. He was angry. He stood from his desk and came near us. I saw everyone slightly back away. “But sir, we really did” I said. I looked at Willow. I put my hand out and formed a ball of water in it. I saw Willow do the same but with fire. Snape looked surprised or baffled. He stopped in his tracks. I looked at the ball of water. I waved my other hand over it. It expanded slightly. I looked back to Snape. “Everyone back to work” he snarled. Wasn’t he going to say something about how it was extraordinary or something? I mean I didn’t think I was actually going to be able to create water in my hand. I was enraged by it. The water began to move rapidly. Like a tsunami or something. I didn’t know what to do. I looked to Willow. I began to panic. I lost control of the water and it imploded itself. It went over the surrounding students. It put out Willow’s ball of flame. They began to complain loudly. It just had to Malfoy. “Wait till my father hears about this you filthy little-” Draco began. “Malfoy!” Snape said stopping him. “Its only water. It never killed anyone” Snape said. “Five points from Ravenclaw and Miss Kenn detention tonight after dinner” Snape said emotionless. Wow, first day and I already have a detention. I sighed. Great.
