While Violet let the other girls in the room after Harry left, Violet refused to go into classes until Monday morning. But by the time she arrived back, everyone was raving about how Defense Against the Dark Arts was now their favourite class. All except Draco Malfoy and his Slytherin gang, who seemed to nitpick everything that Professor Lupin does, or wears.

"Look at the state of his robes," Malfoy would say in a loud whisper as Professor Lupin passed. "He dresses like our old house-elf."

But no one else cared that his robes were second-hand and patched up. His next few lessons were as interesting as the first. After Boggarts, they studied Red-Caps,  nasty little goblin-like creatures that had lurked wherever there was bloodshed, in the dungeons of castles to potholes of deserted battlefields, waiting to bludgeon those who end up lost. From Red-Caps they move on Kappas, creepy water-dwellers that look like scaled-monkeys, with webbed hands itching to strangle unwitting waders in their ponds.

While Defense was fun, Violet was relieved no one else seemed to told anyone outside of Gryffindor Tower. No one mentions it, and it's like an unspoken rule, to never talk about it.

However, Harry gets a little jealous when Violet raves about how much she enjoys Ancient Runes, while he has to deal with Professor Trelawney and how teary her eyes get whenever she lays eyes on Harry. By the time October came, he was starting to dread the hours to come when he would have Divination on his schedule.

And while others think Trelawney is a load of junk, Parvati and Lavender had taken upon theirselves to join her during lunchtimes, always returning to class with a superior smirk on their faces. They also started to use hushed up voices whenever talking to Harry, as if he would break like glass at any moment.

Other than Divination, Potions was by far the worse. Snape was in a vindictive mood now more often than not, Neville turning Snape into being in his grandmother's clothes had spread like wildfire. Everyone found it funny, except Snape. His eyes flash menacingly at the sight or mention of Professor Lupin, and has now took it upon himself to bully Neville more worse than ever.

Nobody liked Care of Magical Creatures class as much anymore, after such a action-pack first lesson, Hagrid seemed to have lost his groove. They were now spending lesson after lesson learning how to care for Flobberworms, which had to be one of the most boring creatures in the world.

"Why would anyone want to bother looking after them?" asked Ron, after yet another hour of shoving down lettuce down a Flobberworms' slimy throats.
