September 2, 1994

The next morning after breakfast, Ziad, Hermione, Max, Ron, and Harry made their way to DATDA for their first class with Moody.

Moody: Alastor Moody. Ex-Auror. Ministry malcontent. And your new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher. I'm here because Dumbledore asked me, end of story, goodbye, THE END! Any questions?

No one responded.

Moody: When it comes to the dark arts, I believe in a more practical approach. CONSTANT VIGILANCE!

The whole class jumped when he shouted.

Moody: But first which of you can tell me how many unforgivable curses there are?

Hermione: T-Three, sir.

Moody: And they are so named?

Hermione: Because they are unforgivable. Use of any one of them will...

Moody: Earn you a one-way ticket to AZ-KA-BAN! Correct. Now the ministry says you're too young to see what curses do. I say different! You need to know what you're up against, you need to be prepared, you need to find somewhere else to put your chewing gum other than the UNDERSIDE OF YOUR DESK, MR. FINNIGAN!

Everyone looked at Seamus, who looked surprised, since Moody had his back turned.

Seamus: Aw, no way the old codger can see out the back of his head.

Moody turned around and threw a piece of chalk at Seamus.

Moody: AND HEAR ACROSS CLASSROOMS! So, which curse shall we see first? WEASLEY!

Ron: (stands up) Yes...

Moody: Give us a curse.

Ron: Well, my dad told me about one...the Imperious Curse.

Moody: Your father will know all about that. Gave the Ministry quite a bit of grief a few years ago. Perhaps this will show you why...

He popped a jar open and took out a spider, scaring Ron.

Moody: Hello, beautiful. ENGORGIO!

The spider grew bigger in Moody's hand.

Moody: IMPERIO!

The spider jumped onto the desk.

Moody: Don't worry. Completely harmless.

He hovered the spider above Ron's head.

Moody: But if she bites, she's lethal!

Draco laughed from the corner.

Moody: What are you laughing at?

He made the spider jump onto Draco's face, making the whole class laugh.
