Reader's POV
Loud chatters and laughters were heard inside the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom.
The atmosphere was bright and merry.
Not a speck of worry written on the faces of the 4th year students.
But things don't last forever
The classroom door was harshly opened and the loud 'bang' it made resounded at the classroom making the students flinch.
Everyone quickly turned and they saw their newest Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher.
The man strolled across the classroom. His expensive boots clicking against the wooden ground. Each step he took was held with great power, it made some student's piss their pants.
"Kairo Alec Blackwell. Dark Arts professor of Durmstrang Institute, creator of both dark and light magic, minister malcontent, and your newest Dark Arts Professor." He said with his deep dark voice while writing his name at the board using a chalk.
"I am here because Dumbledore asked me. End of story. If you have a question you would like to ask me, I suggest you better say it now. I don't want any foolish and brainless students interrupting while I'm in the middle of discussing." said Professor Kairo
Half of the students raised their hands and Kairo mentally rolled his eyes. He randomly chose a student and impatiently waited for him to ask a question.
"A-are you related to the Malfoy's? With your hair platinum blonde and all." A Gryffindor asked
Everyone looked at Vela and Draco and back to Professor Kairo. They could see Vela hold a very close resemblance to Professor Kairo.
To Draco, not so much.
"No. I don't have any relatives." said Professor Kairo
"But-" the Gryffindor was cut off by the Professor
"No more questions. Let's begin." Professor Kairo spatted at the Gryffindor and the boy trembled in fear
Vela couldn't hold back her disappointment at how the Professor was treating the students.
It wasn't that she cared but he's a bloody Professor. He shouldn't be doing that especially to a student. He was suppose to be role-model, not the opposite.
Unknown to her and to everyone else.
Professor Kairo saw the disappointment shown on the girl's face and he felt a bit of regret which shocked him to the core since he never felt that emotion in all his life. He felt this sort of connection and familiarity when he saw the girl's face for the first time at the Great Hall.
She looks a lot like her
Fortunately, he still held his blank stare so no one knew what he was feeling.
He shook his thoughts away and began the class discussion.
"When it comes to the Dark Arts, I believe in a practical approach but first which of you can tell me how many unforgivable curses there are?" He turned his back at the students and wrote at the board
'Unforgivable Curses'
"Three sir" Hermione Granger stuttered
"And they are so named?" Professor Kairo said still writing at the board
"Because they are unforgivable, the use of any one of them-" Granger was cut off by Professor Kairo
"Will earn you a one-way ticket to Azkaban. Correct." He said
"Now, the Ministry says that you are too young to see what these curses do but I say different! You need to know what they're up against. You need to be prepared! You need to find a place where to put your chewing gum besides under your desk, Mr. Finnigan!" He loudly exclaimed
"Uh, no way! It's like he has hundred of invisible eyes or something" Finnigan whispered
"And I can bloody hear as well!" Professor Kairo threw his chalk towards him and it hit him straight at this forehead
"Ow!" Finnigan rubbed his forehead and everyone looked at him wide-eyed
"So, which curse shall we see first? mhm." Professor Kairo crossed his arms and waited for them to answer
When no one did he sighed in frustration and picked a random student.
"WEASLEY!" He yelled
"Y-yes?" Ron whimpered in fear
"Stand! Give me an unforgivable curse?" Professor Kairo narrowed his eyes at him
"W-well, my dad did tell me about one. The uh-Imperius Curse." said Ron
"ah, yes. Your father would know about that, of course. Brought grief to the ministry a few years ago. Perhaps this would show you why." Professor Kairo walked towards table filled with jars of assortments.
He opened a jar that contains a spider and carefully held it on his hand.
"Engorgio"
"Imperio" Professor Kairo casted the spell and placed the spider in different parts of the classroom. The classroom was once again filled with laughter. Everyone was laughing, except Professor Kairo. He placed the spider on Dean Thomas' desk, Vincent Crabbe's head, and in front of Pervati's desk.
"Completely harmless." said Professor Kairo
Draco was howling with laughter and Professor Kairo decided to stop that. So he placed the spider on Draco's face and he whimpered in fear.
"V-Vela! Arghh! Help! Help!" Draco screamed in fear making the students laugh harder
Professor Kairo stilled when he heard Draco yelled out a name.
A name he's very—very familiar with.
He froze which made the spider fall on the ground. Everyone looked up at him and was confused as to why their Professor stopped all of a sudden.
Silence resounded at the classroom.
The students looked at each other wondering if they should say something or not.
Vela hated the awkward silence so she decided to say something
"Professor Kairo? Is everything alright?" Professor Kairo looked at her and he couldn't say anything. His throat felt constricted preventing him from talking. He turned his back towards them and tried to calm his breathing. He couldn't continue this class so he decided to end it.
"Class is dismissed." Professor Kairo breathed out placing his hand on top of the desk
Everyone was confused as to why he's ending the class when only they spent 10 minutes discussing. He got frustrated when no one left.
"I SAID CLASS IS DISMISSED" the students flinched and quickly stood up and left the classroom not wanting to anger him even more. But stubborn little Vela decided to slowly pack. It was only her and Professor Kairo in the classroom but he didn't know that.
"Professor?" She softly said trying not to anger him
His eyes shot opened and quickly turned to look at her. Her eyes widen when she saw his state.
"Professor? D-do you need help? Are you alright?" she asked him
"Please.." he whispered
"I could get it for you. What do you need?" She asked him
"My-m- *sighs* leave.." he hanged his head low not bearing to look at her any longer
"Professor?"
"Leave."
"Okay, but if you need-"
"I said leave. Please."
"Of course" Vela got her school bag and left the classroom
He took out his locket and opened it.
'She looks a lot like you'
