The Betrayed Hero Book One: The New Son Of Chaos

Classes

Bob

Severus's class was first.

I started walking down the stairs with Shadow.

"Since when does he like dark, gloomy places?" Shadow asked.

"I don't know," I replied.

We waited for him to open the door and let the class in.

He opened the door.

"Come in," he said in a cold voice.

I walked in, followed by Shadow.

We sat in the front.

The class filed in, and Severus sat down.

(A\N For a second I forgot he was a ghost, and this is my own story!)

He wrote down the ingredients on the board.

"Now start," he said.

"Now, Severus," I said. Everyone looked to me. "That's no way to teach a class. And you should know that one of us (A\N Percy got his dyslexia taken away when he became Chaos's son.) is dyslexic."

Most of the kids tensed, waiting for points to be taken away, but Shadow just looked at us with an amused expression, like she was watching an entertaining movie.

"You're right," Severus nodded. The other kids looked confused.

"Now will you actually teach us so that they can learn something?"

"Of course," Severus said.

He explained what to do.

The potion was a dreamless sleep potion.

I succeeded.

"Severus," I said when I finished it, "Shadow and I can keep ours, correct?"

"Of course," Severus said.

"Thanks," I said, putting mine in my pocket.

"No problem," he said.

We walked out with the rest of the class. I immediately saw the kids start talking to their friends and glancing at me.

Whatever.

~•~

We walked to Care for Magical Creatures class.

We followed Harry, Ron, and Hermione who were also in this class.

We got there, and Hagrid was right outside his hut.

"Today we are studying Pegasi," Hagrid said.

"But they're extinct," Hermione said.

"Since when?" I asked.

She looked at me and opened her mouth as if to say something, but Hagrid said something first.

"There was one seen in America a couple o' days ago," he said. "I tried ter get one to come with me, but they wouldn't come close."

"They just finished a war against giants," I told him. "They get nervous around giants. I met a friendly giant once though."

"Really?" Hagrid asked. "Where are they? America?"

I looked towards him.

Then I looked away.

"He died for me. I was in a dangerous place, and he fought his own relatives to help me escape."

"Oh."

"How do you know all this?" a kid asked. "I mean, about the war? The teachers didn't even know."

"I fought in that war," I said.

"Oh."

"Anyway," I said, "I can get a pegasus if you need me to."

"Yes please," Hagrid said.

I did a taxi cab whistle.

A few seconds passed, and Blackjack flew towards us.

He landed next to me and I started petting him.

"This is the class," I told Blackjack. "Class, this is Blackjack, the most awesome pegasus ever. And he likes donuts."

I gave Blackjack a donut.

He gobbled it up.

"Anyway," I said, "what do you want to know about him?"

~•~

Shadow and I got a sound proof room from the teachers. Apparently it was called the Room Of Requirement and had somehow survived a fire from Harry's seventh year. It gives you whatever you need or want, and in this case, it was sound proof walls, a training room, secret passages to anywhere in the castle in the case of an attack, and lots of dreamless sleep potions.

But after everyone was asleep— that's when the screams started.

(A/N Merry late Christmas!! Sorry for it being so short.)
