Chapter 6: THE TEACHER(S) - Part 2 

Sirius POV

"So, who is the teacher anyway?" Evans asked as we entered the classroom.

"Weren't you listening," James asked her, "an old hag."

"Dolores Umbridge" Hermione told her, ignoring James' comment.

"A woman?" I asked "Which one?"

"Good morning children" came a sound. I turned around and saw this ugly toad-like human being, who indeed was a woman. A woman consumed by the colour pink. This was marvelous. This was just to die for amazing. Defense against the dark arts is taught by the pinkest woman in the world. The world indeed goes mad.

"Good morning professor Umbridge," the class answered. I could feel James shaking beside me and just like that it was too late - we burst into laughter.

"May I ask what's so funny?" Umbridge asked with an evil-sweet smile stuck on her face.

"Oh, we're awfully sorry professor," James said, while wiping a tear off his face, "but this is just so exciting, you know!"

"No, I do not know," she answered, I looked around. All the Gryffindor's looked at us with worry and amusement, except Evans, who was on the other hand sending us death glares.

"What are your names," Umbridge proceeded to ask.

"I am Jake Brooks and this," he said, pointing at me, "is my dearest friend Charlie Grey."

"Well Mr. Brooks, Mr. Grey I know you're new here, but I like to have discipline in my class."

"Bad luck," I said casually.

"Excuse me, bu-"

"No you are not excused" James blurted out and the whole class stared at him laughing

"One more word from you Mr. Brooks and you'll get detention," Umbridge snapped and James went silent and lowered his head, with a wide grin forming on his face. Then she turned to me, "so what did you mean by bad luck Mr. Grey." 

"Well bad luck that you want discipline in class when me and Jake are in it" I said

"Meaning?"

"Well it is just not really our cup of tea," I told her.

"Well, you better obey me," Umbridge said, "or you will be sorry."

***

"Mr. Brooks, could you please give me the answer to question number 5," Umbridge asked James and he lifted a piece of parchment with the answer written on it.

"Could you perhaps say it out loud?" Umbridge asked patiently.

James quickly scribbled the word 'Nope' on the parchment said. This is going to be interesting.

"And why not?" Umbridge continued talking to the parchment a little less patiently.

'Well didn't you threaten me with detention if I say another word???' James wrote. I was trying so hard not to laugh.

"Well I'm ordering you to speak." Umbridge said

James lifted another piece of parchment saying: 'What??? I'm so confused! What does she mean shut up and speak at the same time? Do toads have brains?'

At that moment all the Gryffindors who were able to see what James was writing burst out laughing. In fact, even some of the Slytherins were chuckling. But Umbridge didn't see the humor or the reference pointing at her looks.

"Of course, they do Mr. Brooks. What has gotten into your little head? Now, I'm ordering you to speak," the whole classroom was laughing at that point and I could see how much James was enjoying himself.

'Still confused... I can't talk and not talk at the same time. Also, are you sure they have brains, because you don't seem to be supporting them.'

Then she realized what he was saying. Her face was taken over by pure anger and the whole class continued laughing.

"Very well Mr. Brooks detention it is," Umbridge screamed at him, "and it also looks like it wouldn't hurt Mr. Grey to join you either. 5 o'clock my office."

"Your office? Couldn't we just join Filchy and Norcy?" I asked, still laughing.

"My office 5 o'clock!" she shouted, and the bell rang.

"Bloody brilliant" Ron said as he caught up with us.

"But you really shouldn't," Evans and Hermione said at one. Me and James laughed

"And her detentions can be pretty harsh," Harry added.

"What are you talking about?" Ron asked.

"You said she was giving you lines," Hermione asked confused.

"Well yes," Harry said quickly. His expression was all too familiar, because James uses the exact same one when he isn't telling the truth.

"Oi!" we heard two voices. We turned around and saw the Weasley twins approaching.

"Neville told us everything," Fred said.

"Well done!" George added proudly.

"Why thank you," James said dramatically, bowing his head.

***

"It is 5 o'clock," I shouted as we exited the common room.

"DETENTION!!!" James shouted along with me and we ran up to Umbridges office. We opened the door and James shrieked in horror. It was Pink, pink, cats, pink, pink, cats, pink,pink...

"Hello Mr. Brooks, Mr. Grey, you'll be doing some lines for me with rather special quills" she held out the black quills to them.

"Wow hold your hippogriffs lady," James said as he saw the quills.

"These are illegal," I said remembering them from Knockturn alley. They were kept in a glass box at Borgin and Burkes.

"That is not your concern now is it?" Umbridge said sweetly.

"Well you see I don't think you got that one right," James said, looking at the quills with displeasure sitting on his face.

"You are not here to tell me how to discipline you," Umbridge continued to speak with a sweet voice.

"And what do you want to engrave in our arms?" I asked out of curiosity.

"Or do you just want our blood on a piece of parchment to sniff at night?" James asked.

"No, she wouldn't do that," I reasoned, "blood is not pink, it's red. Get it right mate."

"Oh yes my mistake," James slapped his head and then looked at Umbridge, whose face was turning into a shade of pink to match her cardigan, "what do you want to engrave in our arms."

"Well," Umbridge squeaked in anger, "I think 'I shall not break the rules' will do the trick."

"I do not think so," James said and Umbridge glared at him. One more push and she'll throw us out I thought.

"Now see here James" I said imitating Fudge "At least we know Pinky's nice"

"THAT'S IT!" she roared. Me and James were watching her amused. "GET OUT NOW!"

"With pleasure," James said.

"I hope you enjoyed our presence," I said, and we ran out of the horrifying room.

Hi!

I hope you enjoyed watching Umbridge break.
