It was almost four days or maybe three days . I don't know. But one word  to define life here in Hogwarts would be .

         'Hectic'..

     Teachers are always very serious about studies. Heck even Sirius isn't serious!!!

     We were currently in the Great Hall eating breakfast. Eva was talking about a boy not just any boy but the famous Sirius Black. 

     Apparently he was kissing some random girl. 

     After a while Dani entered Great Hall and took a seat next to me and started eating her breakfast. 

     "Oh! look Eva your Prince Charming is kissing Marlene MacKinnon" dani said.

       Eva turned and looked at the Gryffindor table. She  sighed and looked back at us.

      "He can kiss whoever he wishes to. It's his life" eva said that and got out of her seat .

      "Hey you didn't even finish your breakfast" I tried to stop her.

      " I'm not hungry anymore" and with that she stormed out of the Great hall.

        I looked at Dani.

       "Hey don't look at me. I'm just warning her about Black. He's bad news "she said.

       After breakfast we had defence against the dark arts. Dark arts was an optional subject in Beauxbotons. However I did know the basic hexes and jinxes. 

     We shared Defence Against the Dark Arts with  the Slytherin's. The Slytherin were the least favourite house in Hogwarts. How do I know you ask?

     Well whenever any Slytherin walks by they glare at us and Dani politely glares back at them . If she's in a good mood she even comments on their appearance.

      I mean I have nothing against them. I haven't even spoken to them. Frankly speaking I think everyone's just to harsh on them . And I refuse to judge them like that. I at least need to talk to one Slytherin. I mean how bad can they be...

       We entered the class. The Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher was new  this year. I had seen him during breakfast. 

       We were all settled in the class. The Slytherin's were chatting amongst themselves. I was sitting with Dani and Eva . 

         A man with long blak robes entered the class. He placed his books on the desk and turned towards the class. He had jet black hair and sea green eyes. 

         "Good morning class I'm Magnus Jones. You can call me Professor Jones or you can just address me as Sir"he smiled at us.

          He took a parchment of paper and started reading out everyone's name. After he was done he rolled the paper and kept it on the table.

        " Today we are going to learn about "he flicked his wand and something was written on the blackboard. The whole class suddenly got tensed. 

         ' The Unforgivable Curses' was written on the board . Now I know I said I didn't know much about Dark Arts but I'm pretty sure we weren't suppose to learn these things.

            "Now  these Curses can't even be classified as N.E.W.T level. But I think everyone sitting in this room should have a basic knowledge abot these Curses." 

             "Can anyone tell me something about the first Unforgivable Curse"

               I only knew one and I'm pretty sure it's not the first one. A hand was raised in the air. 

             "The Imperius Curse" the boy said. His voice was deep and husky.

             " Very good Mr????" Professor questioned.

             " Lestrange ... Rodolphus Lestrange" the boy said.

               "The Imperius Curse when cast successfully,  places the victim completely under the caster's control let me demonstrate" Professor said. He flicked his wand soon a rat was on his table.

                "Imperio"he screamed. And soon enough the rat  was floating in the air. It was swooping wherever Professor's wand moved. 

                "Brilliant isn't she!!"Professor exclaimed and the rat landed on his desk.

                  "Well it's not very good if you are on the receiving end" he said pacing around the class "Although only a person with exceptional strength of will is capable of resisting it" he continued.

                 "Now who can tell us about the second Unforgivable Curse??" he asked. Instantly a hand was raised in the air.

                  "The Cruciatus Curse" a girl with a rather high pitched voice answered.

                    " Very good Miss??" he asked .

                    "Bellatrix Black" she answered rather proudly.

                  Professor Jones continued "The Cruciatus Curse is a curse of torture, inflicting excruciating pain on a victim." 

                He moved towards his desk and yelled  "Crucio". The rat started to whimper uncontrollably. It was moving with extreme pain. I was sitting a few feets away from the desk but I could feel it's pain. Eva started to shake a little bit. 

                After inflicting pain on the poor rat for two minutes Professor Jones finally stopped.

              "Alright now who can tell me about the last Unforgivable Curse?" Professor Jones questioned.

               There was a long silence. Nobody dared to move. Professor Jones was surprised and he looked around the class.

                "Come on children! You must have read  this one  somewhere" he tried to encourage us. It's true though,  I had read about this curse in  a lot of books. Everyone in the class were sitting like a bunch of statues so  I raised my hand. Professor Jones looked at me and nodded his head.

                 " The Killing Curse" I said 

                  "Very good Miss?? "he questioned .

                  " Alexandra White.." I said .

               "The Killing Curse, causes instant and painless death" he said. Professor  Jones pointed his wand towards the rat which was lying on the edge of the desk. 

                 " Avada Kedavra" he screamed. The rat fell from the desk. There was blood on the ground. Eva gasped and put her hand on her mouth. I patted her back reassuringly.

                   "Now can anyone tell me why these Curses are named as Unforgivable ??"he asked us and  someone raised a hand. 

                   "The use of these curses will give  a one way ticket to Azkaban" a familiar voice replied. I had heard this voice before, but I don't remember where..

                   "Excellent Mr???"Professor questioned.

                   "Severus Snape"he replied coldly. Now I remember how I know him. He's Lily's friend. 

                   "These unforgivable curses should not be performed for fun on the school premises. If it comes to my notice that any student is caught in such heinous acts, there will be serious consequences!!" he warned us.

                  Eva giggled and Dani rolled her eyes at Eva's reaction. Thankfully we didn't get any homework today but he did tell us to revise a few hexes and jinxes . He left the class and  we exited the class as well. 

          "Well I think he was alright. He didn't seem lethal"dani said .

             For Merlin's sake she has got to be joking. He just performed Unforgivable Curses in front of us . And the girl says he isn't  lethal. I gave Dani a questioning look.

             "Our previous Defense against the Dark Arts teacher got sacked because he  used to chain students and beat  them for detention" Eva said.

           " Who was he?" I asked curiously.

         " Orford  Umbridge..."    Eva and Dani said quietly.

           I nodded my head and the three of us marched towards our next class.
