Dark Meets Light

Chapter Eight: Another Day for Harry

Harry shakes his head, leaving his rooms with Kadaj behind him, he moves away from Kadaj. He wishes that lunch would be done by now so he would have something to do during his lunch time off. He makes sure that he has some paper and a quill, so he can take notes on the other two teachers he is going to watch today.

Sitting down on the stairs which lead to the grounds of Hogwarts, waiting for lunch to end so he can move on to the next class he wishes to see. He looks up as Albus starts up the hill to come into the school after being gone to the Ministry of Magic. Albus stops in front of Harry, smiling down on him he moves to sit next to Harry to talk to him.

“How is it going with your third day at Hogwarts?” asks Albus his eyes twinkling.

“Horrid Albus, yet you already knew that part didn't you. After all you were there when I asked Severus to a lunch date. Then again you brain doesn't work half as much as it should while running this school. I mean students tell me you can't keep a defense teacher here. Sound like I don't want to stay any longer than necessary before I go home. Of course you will be losing a potion master and of course Kadaj will be returning with us” speaks Harry not caring if he hurts Albus in any way.

“I see, you wish to return as soon as you can but I'm afraid the Ministry will not let you go anywhere. Harry you belong here and the Minister just told me not too long that you cannot go back to Yama Mori Rikuchi ever. It seems they wish for you Harry Potter The-Boy-Who-Lived to stay here in the Wizard world” speaks Albus not at all sorry.

“I see, so you told them that it is best for me to remain here in this world, just because I was born into this world. May I remind you that I was not raised in this world thus I have no reason to stay. In fact I can leave right now without killing this Dark Lord, so you have a choice leave me alone or defeat the idiot yourself” smirks Harry getting up, he moves toward the green house.

Harry ignores Albus moving on to his next destination, the green house for Herbology Professor and how she teaches her class. Smiling as students start to come out of Black Rose and head to two different classes, shaking his head Harry just laughs at Albus. Maybe being here will do him some good in the funny department but not in anything else except holding him back.

“Hurry up class we don't have all day into green house for today we shall be learning about a new plant.” speaks Professor Sprout to her class, moving them into the green house to start her lesson for the day.

“Ma'am I shall be attending today's class, I do hope you don't mind me being here” smiles Harry talking politely to Professor Sprout.

“Not at all, just go stand with the students while I teach them about this new plant” smiles Professor Sprout turning to the rest of the class.

She goes on about the Abelia flowering shrub which is good to use in the forget-me-not potion. By picking the flowers in their different colors means you must treat each shrub differently. She explains how the shrubs can be told apart from each other, as there are white, pink, or purple tubular flowers.

“Now each flower used in the potion must be prepared in different ways thanks to their color. The white Abelia roots cannot be used in any potion but the rest of the plant can be used, and the pink Abelia flower shrub cannot be used only its roots can be used in potions. The purple tubular Abelia juices can only be used in potions, because the rest of the plant is poisonous. Same goes for the other plant parts of the white and pink flower” speaks Professor Sprout.

“I see, so this component that which is inside of this Abelia flower shrub, which a person can use within a potion to make people either forget or to always remember. I am wondering if you know the only other potion that this flower shrub can be used in?” speaks out Harry coming to the front wishing to share his knowledge with the students and teacher.

“Well isn't it not some kind of elf potion that we wizards can only dream of creating with another rare plant that only grows because of Elvin magic” answers Professor Sprout.

“Very good you do know what you are doing Professor Sprout. I can tell you what kind of plant that must be grown in the Elvin world. This plant is called abelmosk, which has yellow and red flowers; this is a tropical plant from the mallow family. The Latin name is Abelmoschus moschatus or English name is musk mallow” smirks Harry watching the reaction of the students and Professor Sprout.

“Harry could you please tell us how you know so much about plants?” asks Professor Sprout, who doesn't know many already know it was from a master of his.

“Sure I would love to, you see one of my masters which is Olette made me stay in a forest until I knew every single plant within in it. She then taught what each could be used for and how much and which parts can be used different ways. Olette also taught me about all the plants in the world, and how to use them as well. She wants be to be able to use any plant in anyway if I ever need the plants to heal the innocent or harm the bad people” explains Harry smiling as he does so, enjoying the fact that these people are learning more about life.

Soon Professor Sprout stops class as they gather up their stuff she tells them they have homework. She tells them that they have an essay of the effects of the Abelia flower shrub when used in different potions. The whole class groans as they turn to leave the green house to their next class.

Harry smiles as he takes off up the stairs into Black Rose, wondering what he can do next with his time. He skims the teachers list of whose teaching when for the days of weeks, finding the next class he's going to visit. Professor Blake, the new teacher of Astronomy class, teaching the students for the first time.

Harry nods his head toward the side at Kadaj letting him know what he is up too at this point in time. He moves to go to the second highest tower to attend that class, to see how this new teacher is taking to teaching students for the first time. He wonders how the teacher will do with his next class which consists of Slytherins and Gryffindor seventh years.

Before he makes it up the stairs, Professor Snape pulls him to the side to have a quick conversation with Harry. Harry smiles as he drags Severus into an empty classroom, taking advantage of his open mouth. Harry kisses Severus full on the lips, pulling Severus right up against his body, making the kiss even deeper than before.

“Mr. Potter let me go at once” snarls Severus pushing Harry away.

“I see how it is; very well we shall talk about this tomorrow night at the moment I have to go. Please understand unless it is scheduled I cannot talk to you, so I bid you ado” speaks Harry taking off to the tower.

Getting into the classroom before it starts, Harry sits down in the back wishing to see what this teacher has in store for his class at the present time. Harry watches as the teacher comes into the room with only a chart in his hands, which he places down on the stand. The professor goes to stand in front of the room, taking a look at each of the students before he begins to speak.

“My name is Professor Blake and I shall be your teacher from now on in Astronomy. Now for each question right I will award a house with five points, so my first question is how many signs are in the Zodiac?” starts off Professor Blake. “Miss Granger.”

“Twelve” answers Hermione.

“Correct five points to Gryffindor, now can someone tell me what their names are?” speaks out Professor Blake. “Yes Mr. Weasley.”

“Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces” answers Ron.

“Correct five points to Gryffindor, now can a Slytherins tell me what Aires is?” questions Professor Blake. “Mr. Malfoy.”

“Aries is the first sign of the zodiac, represented by a ram and lasting from approximately March 21 to April 19. Aries is classified as a fire sign and its ruling planet is Mars” answers Draco.

:”Correct five points to Slytherins. Now I wish for one person to state the rest, perhaps Mr. Potter can do so” says Professor Blake.

“Why not sir, now where do I begin? Taurus the second sign of the zodiac, represented by a bull and lasting from approximately April 20th to May 20. Taurus is classified as an earth sign, and its ruling planet is Venus. Gemini the third sign of the zodiac, represented by twins and lasting from approximately May 21 to June 20.

“Very Good Mr. Potter you do know your stuff, please tell me who taught you all this?” asks Professor Blake.

“My master named Larxene, she learned everything about Astronomy. She made me learn everything she knew and this included the Zodiac signs and names” smiles Harry.

Professor Blake continues on teaching the class about how everyone does have a sign but that doesn't mean you're like your sign at all. He releases the class a little bit early because he feels they need more time to do their homework. Harry thinks about what he had said about the sign, and how it truly doesn't matter that your signs are different from your mates sign.

Harry shakes his head as he moves up to the door that leads into his and King Kai's room. Harry makes sure no one walks in on him, as he goes down into his trunk, taking his clothes off he steps into his shower. He wishes to have a relaxing shower before he does some reading and goes off to bed for the rest of the night.

King Kai steps out of the shower wrapping a towel around his waist, he steps into the main room. He turns to the door, spotting Severus Snape staring at him for the doorway, half in and half out. Severus bows down apologizing about not waiting for answer before he barged into the room.

“No need to be sorry, it will happen. Next time I will just put clothes on while in the bathroom. Do you like my tattoo on my back Severus” Smiles King Kai as he moves to sit down his back to Severus.

“Yes it is interesting to have the symbols of Yin and Yang on someone's back, with the yin part having flames come out of it. It is very different from the other kinds of Yin Yang symbols that I have seen in my life time” speaks Severus making sure not to upset King Kai.

“What is it that you want Severus?” asks King Kai smiling to himself.
