It would not have taken this rather startling incident to make sure Hermione would pay rapt attention to their new teacher, but now her eyes were practically glued to her. “Great”, Ron whispered from the side, “just when Snape’s gone, we get something like this.” “Sh”, she tried to shush him, because she did not really care to watch one of her best friends being turned into a toad or a flea or something equally unpleasant. Sure, McGonagall said that transfigurations were never used as punishment. And just as surely, their teacher would not give a damn. She shot a quick glance to her other side, to make sure Harry was not about to continue bringing them into trouble’s way. But he was staring out of the window, completely lost in his thoughts, doodling fancy patterns on the parchment before him. Just when she considered whether or not she should nudge him, the teacher – she might introduce herself already, Hermione thought – gave the class another displeased look and chose this moment to commence with her lesson.
“They have asked me to teach you how to defend yourselves from evil spells.” She gave a small chuckle. “As if there were any such thing. Your spells are just as evil for your enemies as theirs are for you. All I can teach you is how to defend yourselves from anything, how to always be one step ahead of your enemy.” At this point, Harry stopped listening completely. Her words had reminded him too much of Voldemort’s from so long ago. ‘There is no good or evil. There is only power, and those who are to weak to seek it.’ The hard glimmer in her eye spoke louder than words that she too lived by this principle. He spent the rest of the lesson deliberately staring out of the window, missing both the worried glances from Hermione and the continually angrier looks from Mab.

It was rather unheard of in Hogwart’s history that upon the ringing of the bell, the whole class was not up and halfway out of the door in a split second. This time, however, the students seemed glued to their seats, heads down and hoping that their teacher’s unpleased gaze would not fall upon them. Most of the lesson had been spent on her talking strategies none of them had really understood nor known when they should ever come into a situation in which they would come in handy, but they had scribbled away anyway. Not that she had paid any attention to that. She had kept walking up and down the aisle between the rows of desks, talking and giving the occasional frown to people. Probably for breathing too loud. Now she stopped her sermon and looked at the class somewhat confused, because several people began shuffling their feet impatiently. “What?”, she snapped, her face quickly conforming to anger, and the class shrunk back in one simultaneous movement. People threw a few glances to and fro, trying to determine someone to break the news. The break. Whatever. Finally, Hermione piped up, “It’s the break, Ma’am.” “So?” “We need to go to our next lesson.” A thoughtful face, a shrug, and she finally let them go. “Well, get out of my sight then.” They scrambled for the door, trying to reach the door to freedom before their moody teacher decided to slam it shut again. For one of them, however, it was too late. Harry had been trailing along rather glumly, and so he was still within hearing distance when she snapped a sentence. “Not you, Potter. I have a crow to pick with you.”
