 Anthony Goldstein and to my right Theodore Nott! But I couldn't help but notice another redhead that looks awfully familiar sitting across from me wearing Ravenclaw robes

But it was soon lunchtime and I couldn't wait for Defence against the dark arts since it was after lunch but the sad fact it was with the Gryffindor's.

"w-welcome t-to D...fence against the dark Arts! Class." stuttered Quirell and I instantly knew that was fake

"excuse me I got a question!" I said raising my hand up from my position at the left side of the classroom where the Slytherins now sat in all their classes

"y., yes miss." he started before looking at his roll call checklist and I swore his eyes turned red whilst looking at me "miss potter"

"he probably has one of my horuxes" tom whispered into my head

"oh my god I forgot you existed" I snorted back

"why is this called defence against the dark arts when in fact we are actually learning how to defend ourselves to the point where we might be offensive? And what does the ministry categorise as dark arts?" I asked receiving nods of agreement from my Slytherins

"well to answer your first question, we call this defence against the dark arts because it is true that we learn the basic of dark arts but in the end, the ministry only tests defensive spells in your future O.W. L's and N.E.W. T's but for your second question the answer is more complicated," red-eyed Quirell said "an example is Samhain now who here celebrate Samhain?" and at that question, a handful of Slytherin and surprisingly a few of the Gryffindors raised their hands

"well Samhain is one of the Olde ways that the ministry is starting to slowly but carefully restrict another one is Altimetry for once did you known that the Malfoy, Potter, and Flamel lines are world-renowned Alchemist but seemingly in the Malfoy family that seemed to have died out with Abraxas Malfoy who had died young before he could teach Lucius Malfoy of his way while in the potter line, James Potter was already a prodigy but he stopped abruptly three months before the attack on Holly potter the alleged girl who lived," Quirell said practically hissing on the last part

"what do you mean alleged! I have the scar!" holly said practically shrieking receiving eye rolls from the Slytherins

"like I was saying many of the olden ways are what considered dark but it honestly comes down to how people use the power like Parseltongue is an excellent branch of magic to the point where it's more effective than today's healing magic but now it is considered dark by most people in Britain but did you know in foreign countries it is considered a gift? Did you know that there are currently only 32 legitimate Parseltongue speakers and only 3 in Britain but I don't see the ministry alerting the public about it though 2 of them are in secret one of them is known as Lord Voldemort?" but it seemed as if that interesting lecture was over since the red eyes retreated into brown.

"plea-please open p...-age one a-and proc-pr...proceed to read from there" Quirell practically stuttered

but for once I knew what my goals were.

Get back the locket but how?
