Immortal Magic

Chapter Forty

Allison's Point of View.

Over the last two days other than classes I have been in the library with Hermione. While she has been doing her research about House Elves I have been reading through the Grimoire. I have been meaning to ask either Professor McGonigal or Professor Bins about it. 

Right now she and I were in the Library before out first Defence Against the Dark Arts lesson with Professor Moody. 

I look from the Grimoire to my watch and my eyes widen when I realise the time. ''Hermione we should go if we want to make it to Defence Against the Dark Arts,'' I tell her. She looks up from her books and nods at me before closing them and gathering her stuff. 

Together she and rush towards the classroom. As we neared we saw Harry and Ron standing together talking. ''We were in the,'' Hermione didn't get to finish as Harry answers for her. 

''Library,'' he nods his head understanding. ''Come on let's go in so we can get some decent seats,'' Harry tells us.  We all rushed into the classroom and took the four seats right in front of the teachers' desk. 

We all get out our copies of The Dark Forces: A Self-Guide to Protection. We all looked towards the door when we heard the familiar sound of his attachable leg. 

As he walks into the room he looks over everyone in the room. ''You can put those away. You won't need them,'' he tells us, as he walks behind his desk. 

We all put our books away and look at him. He took the register looking over each and every one of us as he calls out our names. 

''Now I have gotten a letter from Professor Lupin. It seems you have been thorough in tackling dark creatures,'' he tells us before going and listing what we had covered. Harry, Ron and Hermione and I all shared looks when he mentioned Werewolves. 

''But you are very behind in covering curses,'' Moody tells us. ''But before we do that one thing I am confused about is how you didn't cover vampires when you had a clan of them staying at the castle last year,'' Moody asks looking around the room. 

''Not to mention you have a half-vampire in your class,'' Moody says coming to stand in front of my desk. ''Stand up Miss Weasley or should I call you Miss Cullen?'' He asks when I stand up. 

''Never mind that can you explain to the class how you can kill a Cold one that intends to attack,'' he asks me. 

''You would need to tear the vampire apart from limb to limb and then set the pieces on fire to be thorough,'' I tell them. Moody nods at me in away of saying well down. 

''And how can you tell when to weary around a vampire?'' he asks me. ''The eyes. If they are a golden yellow, they drink animal blood. If they have blood-red eyes they drink from humans,'' I list off. 

If their eyes are mostly black that means they haven't hunted in a while and you are at risk of becoming their victim,'' I tell them repeating what Carlisle had taught Hermione and I over the holiday. 

''How do you get turned into one?'' Dean asks confused. I look behind me and see everyone looking at me in curiosity. ''If I vampire bites you, their venom will spread through your body and change you into one of them,'' I tell them. 

''Well done Miss. Weasley, now that you know about vampires we can move on to curses,'' he tells the class after he had told me to sit down. 

''I am here to bring you up to speed on what wizards can do to each other. Now I have one year to teach you about Dark,'' Moody didn't get to finish as Ron spoke. ''Aren't you staying?'' Ron asks. Moody's eye narrows in on Ron and after a while, he smiles bringing relief to Ron.
