Chapter 7 : Classes

As the morning light creeps in Edwin was awoken by the sounds of mermaids around his window watching him sleep, as he got up and looked at the window he saw a mermaid with grayish skin and a long dark wild hair with ropes of rocks and shells hanging around its neck.

Edwin started a staring contest with the mermaid and he dare not blink the mermaid smiled at Edwin and swam away " well fuck " Edwin stated and went and got dressed.

At the common room, there was someone that Edwin recognize Theodore a tall rabbit face boy who is in the same year as him " Early riser ?" Theodore asked

" mermaid woke me up " Edwin replied, " what went in our fonder head to put us under a lake ?"

" yeah it's weird but nice"

" yo wanna play some chest or do something since we're the only one up," Edwin asked

" sure "

Theodore and Edwin started to play Wizard's chest and talk Edwin used this opportunity to tell his fake backstory but the only problem for him was is finding the right time to mention it, After a while, Edwin asked about Theodore life before Hogwarts.

" notin much to it just living with my father and just studying" Theodore replied, " what about you ?"

" grew up in London and went to school there and live with my mom, sis Yasbel and some times my grandfather "

" London is there a school there" Theodore expression changed as he spoke " you mean a muggle school " Theodore who didn't expect that a muggle born would be in Slytherin house and was a bit surprised but interested.

" Yeah I'm a half-blood and I had to attend muggle school because of my mother" Theodore face seem to be more relax after hearing that Edwin is a Half-blood, Edwin found out a lot about Theodore one of the most notable thing is for Edwin to remember is that he seems disgusted about muggles each time Edwin would mention the cinema or anything muggle related Theodore would always compare it to the magical counterpart and say it is better.

At Slytherin table, Edwin was stuffing his face when the prefect was handing out the time table for their classes they had Defense against the dark arts first ( D.A.D.A) then double potion with Gryffindor.

The D.A.D.A classroom smelled like garlic and other assortments of weird smells, at the front a man with a turban " wel-wel-welcome everyone" the man stuttered

" My na-name is-is Qu-Quirinus Quirrell, yo-yo-you could call me pro-pro-professor Quirrell"

The first impression Quirrell made to the student was that he is a timid man who stutters a lot his class was amazing if you could get past the stuttering and the giggles of some students, Edwin knew that Quirrell is a capable teacher and would pay attention.

" I can't believe we have that joke of a teacher," Draco said after the class

had finished.

On the way to the dungeon where potion is kept Edwin saw the twins standing near the step

" well look who it is, " Fred said

" our little Slytherin friend " George added on

" did the string work ?" Edwin asked

" Our friend revived his present," the twin said a grin

"see you two around," Edwin said as he walked down the stairs and some Hufflepuff was walking up the stairs, a loud splashing sound could be heard and some laughter.

Edwin was the last Slytherin to arrive at the potion classroom, the potion classroom was filled with Calderon and was dark with a bit of light just to see what your doing had a smell of herbs there Snape was sitting waiting on the students to come in, Edwin found that all of the Slytherin students sat on one end of the class he saw a empty area near Theodore and went and sit there.

The Griffindoor students started to come in one after another when the class is full Snape out up and spoke "As there is little foolish wand-waving here, many of you will hardly believe this is magic. I don't expect you will really understand the beauty of the softly simmering cauldron with its shimmering fumes, the delicate power of liquids that creep through the human veins, bewitching the minds, ensnaring the senses... I can teach you how to bottle fame, brew glory, and even stopper death - if you aren't as big a bunch of dunderheads as I usually have to teach."

Snape then looked to Harry " Harry potter our own celebrate... what do you get if you add the powdered root of asphodel to an infusion of wormwood"

"I don't know sir"

" where would you find Bezoars"

" I don't know sir"

Edwin was glad everything was going according to the movie even to Hermione putting her up all the time after Snape was finished with Harry the class started, Snape didn't ask for the student to take out their books but just started to write on the board and told them to make the potion.

Edwin was very careful in selecting the ingredients and was trying his best not to be nervous when the potion was near complete some shouting was heard from Snape Neville made a mistake in the potion and his skin was covered in boils, Edwin just didn't bother with him since he knew it wouldn't be bad.

Edwin finished the potion the last thing he had to do was wave his wand over the Calderon when he did a bright pink smoke started to rise up, When he looked around the class he was the first one to finish then most of the Slytherin and Hermione was finished even if it was just for a second Edwin felt proud that he finish the potion first, there were some student who's potion was giving off a light red color.

" looks like you got it right" Theodore stated

" first to finish "

"it doesn't matter... as long you got it"

" But I got it and finish first"
