bat, grimm and the cat can fix it (Translation)

Off to the sixth year

A loud scream interrupted the lousy atmosphere at the lion table. .everyone looked at Pansy, it was she who had screamed. Now she pointed to the staff table in horror. Her finger didn’t point to the Sphinx, as one might think, but to a man who was sitting next to Albus Dumbledore. .and now almost the whole hall shrieked and roared. Much to Sirius Percy's amusement and Lexica.
“Has it cloned itself ?!” gasped from another side of the room.
.since the students didn't want to calm down anymore but got louder and louder, Minerva McGonagall had no choice but to get up and calm down.
“Dear students, please stop screaming. .I will explain, after the classification ceremony, what the double Dumbledore is all about. "
When he heard these words, one of the two Dumbledores even grinned. The one with the less conspicuous robes.
.the students calmed down only partially. However, when the side door opened and Severus Snape entered the room, it became completely silent again. .the teacher was no longer so hated by his students, but he still scared almost everyone. And everyone had respect for him. .in addition, since that year he was responsible for the division of the first year, after all, McGonagall had to take over most of the duties of Albus Dumbledore. .the spell, or rather the punishment, of Amelia Bones eventually worked for the rest of Dumbledore's life. The old man would never be able to approach a student again without standing there in baby clothes. .and so the teachers had to divide up some tasks among themselves.

Severus had heard the children's screams all the way outside. And of course he also knew why the youngsters were so beside themselves. .well, that wasn't difficult to guess, after all the brats had roared loud enough. In this case, however, the bat from the dungeons could understand his protégés very well. .that must have been a real shock to the teenagers, and it was on their first night.
Fortunately, the first graders hadn't arrived at the time. He really wouldn't have wanted to explain that to the dwarves. .how he of all people got the kiss on the hand to take over Minerva's job, he didn't know yet.
'I must have been drunk when I got spanked about it. Or I was still enjoying the aftermath of our honeymoon. "
.however that was, he would definitely do his job with dignity and a lot of bat. After all, there was a reputation to be preserved.
Then Hagrid came and handed the little ones over to him.
'Ron's right, they're getting smaller and smaller. .or did I grow on vacation? What kind of nonsense am I thinking now? This task probably hits my brain. "
When he explained the most important rules to the children, he could already smell the fear of some. .that probably meant that he hadn't lost his reputation for a long time. Severus couldn't deny that this fact made him very pleased.
.they all listened carefully to him and soon Severus could see beneath the fear, excitement and fascination. That had always been the horseshoe of his gloomy reputation, and his manner attracted many. .and not in the sexual area.
'It's good that you don't know which house I'm responsible for, otherwise my queues would be jammed this year.'
."Come on, your future housemates are already waiting for you," with which he turned and walked forward.
Severus was glad that the toads were walking behind him so they couldn't see his smile.

.When the division was finally over, everyone stared again at the deputy headmistress. And now the woman really had no more excuses. .none of the children would get a bite out of it if she didn't explain to them in advance why there were suddenly two whiskers. So she got up to get it over with as quickly as possible. .some other teachers wanted to be introduced as well.
She quickly prayed down the usual greeting that no student seemed to listen to anyway. At some point they had to do something to keep the children away from the forest. .the centaurs slowly but surely stopped coming back to bring back lost “foals”.

“Now we come to the point that seems to interest you all: the double Dumbledore. .no, Albus Dumbledore has not been cloned or otherwise reproduced. The man in the more subtle robes is Aberforth Dumbledore, the younger brother of our headmaster. .albus was of the opinion that he had found a suitable candidate for defense in this man. Especially now that the subject is no longer under a curse. Aberforth used to run the 'Eberkopf' pub, which some people are sure to be familiar with. .however, he has given it up to meet his brother's wish. Yes, Albus Dumbledore is still Headmaster, and so he has some rights as well. Like hiring teachers. "

.and already the older students began to shout and curse. You could see that they didn't like it at all.
Aberforth shook his head when he saw the angry crowd and now rose in turn.
.“Good evening, please calm down, I was hired by my brother, but I'm not him. Even if I look like that. My preferences are impeccable, and the ministry has confirmed that to me. .so you can put your pitchforks away again.And it's not quite true what Professor McGonagall said, I didn't close my bar because my brother asked me for help, but because too many rabble had gathered there in recent years. .I was just fed up with it, I wanted a bar, not a lousy dive bar where only scum would meet. That is why you will have to come to terms with me from now on. .However, I can promise you one thing now, none of you will ever fail an annual examination. I won't allow that ”, the old man sat down again with the words.

.the students didn't really know what to think of the new teacher. He was the brother of a man they hated and he would teach a subject that until now had only been taught by bad teachers. .and then there was the fact that he'd gotten involved with a married woman, Narcissa then Malfoy. Not to forget his reputation for dealing with goats. .All in all, Aberforth Dumbledore didn’t exactly spark off enthusiasm among the students. And they were miles away from trust. As much as the students annoyed, they would have to live with this teacher, at least for now.
.harry glanced at Draco, his friend looking like he was about to throw up. Fortunately, you only saw that if you knew the young man very well. His sisters were already with him and whispered something to him.

.“What have you been doing with these children. They look at me as if I want to eat them, ”Aberforth hissed.
"Most of them were incited by the adults," Albus tried to justify himself.
."Pah, you forget that I know you. No matter what you have done, I will earn the trust of these students, ”promised Aberforth.
Albus said nothing, just grinned to himself.

.“When we have clarified that, I can move on to the next topic. Besides Aberforth Dumbledore we have two new teachers. For one thing, there's Percy Weasley, he's going to be teaching etiquette this year. .two subjects are just too many for Professor Snape. And then there is the Sphinx Lexica, it will take over history. You will certainly agree with me that a change in the teaching staff was urgently needed. .Hopefully nobody will fall asleep from now on ”, Minerva smiled.
Percy and Lexica rose briefly so the students could see them better.

“And then we come to the last point, the exams required by the ministry. .and which will be there every year from now on. But especially the results and the consequences that follow.
I know some of you are angry because your friends are no longer here. .I can really understand you, these students have been torn from an environment in which they felt comfortable, and now they have to find their way in a new environment. .and all because of some test results that almost no one who is on the council and for this change would have achieved at all.
I can only advise you not to lose contact with your friends. .use all the possibilities for communication that there are in the magical world. Her friends go to other schools but they are not out of the world. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. .Just because someone is at a school with a less prestigious reputation doesn't mean that those students have worse prospects for their future.
.With this in mind, I wish you a wonderful new school year and bon appetite. "

The students clapped politely before enjoying the meal. They were very excited to see how this year would develop.
