When the full moon hits.

The Great Hall was noisy as always as Snape slipped into the room to sit down in his place as Potion Master. He glanced over to what should have been an empty DADA seat to find someone from his past that he thought he would never see again especially after the year he returned as the new DADA teacher when Black escaped to mainly watch out for Harry Potter, he didn't realize that he would be back to Hogwarts. ‘Lupin, I guess I should be polite to him but cold. I do not forgive him for what he did.’ He recalled the day that he nearly got killed by him when they were students, just cause of Sirius’ statement if he wanted to know where Remus was heading off to each month. He picked up his water goblet and took a sip from it before he placed his ‘hard nose’ teacher look onto his face.

Minerva came walking in with the new students and that there was one very strange looking one in the whole bunch – silver haired and wearing hand me down robes. But she looked like she was at least three years older than the new students. Minerva started to read out names of the first year students and had them sorted into their new Houses, all but for the silver haired student.

Dumbledore stood up and walked around the staff table till he stood next to the Sorting Hat. “My fellow teachers, fellow students, we have a transfer student from Greece. Her name is Selene Rayne.”

Remus was sipping his pumpkin juice when he heard the transfer student’s last name. He spat out his juice and started to cough hard as he gazed at her and wondered if she was the daughter of his girlfriend who he dated during their last year at Hogwarts. He recalled the time at Hogwarts that they had made love as a graduation present to each other. He never saw her again after they graduated. The last time he heard anything about her was that she moved to Greece and died there.

Snape turned quickly towards Remus surprised by his sudden cough and wondered if he was well when he noticed how he was looking at the transfer student and wondered why he was so interested in her. He looked towards the transfer student and wondered who she was to Remus or what she was to him.

“Gryffindor!” yelled the Sorting Hat.

Selene stood up and bowed her head to Dumbledore, walked towards her new House table where she was greeted. Snape noticed that she walked with an air of shyness as she sat down, he wondered if she was going to be like most of his first year students or like Neville, one of his worst students he ever taught.

The dinner was served fast, as Hermione introduced herself to Selene and then introduced her to Harry and Ron, who as usual had a mouthful of food as he said hello to her. During the entire meal, Harry was noticing that Professor Lupin was watching no one but Selene as she ate dinner. It puzzled him as he usually never watched just one student before. They headed towards Gryffindor tower together.

“Do you know Professor Lupin, by chance?” asked Harry, looking at Selene.

“Who?” asked Selene, turning from her meal to look at him.

“Professor Lupin, he’s our Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher. He’s really good. He knows his Dark Arts very well.” Hermione said, pointing him out on the staff table.

“No, sorry, I do not know him.” Selene said softly. But the look of her eyes reminded Harry of Lupin.

Soon, dinner was over and they headed towards their dormitory, when right before they reached the Gryffindor Tower, a shadow loomed over them. They looked up to see a greasy black haired wizard, with a hooked nose and sallow skin standing there preventing them from continuing onward.

“Miss Rayne, I am Professor Snape, the Potion Master. I would like to see your school transcripts on what you did in your Potion classes so I may arrange for you to be placed in a lower level or higher level Potions,” whispered the man.

“I thought I would be seeing you, sir. This is my entire transcript on what I did for Potions. I assume we’ll be doing a truth serum potion this year? I have already done that potion in my second year and I passed with flying colors,” spoke Selene, as she pulled out of her bag a manila folder which was quite thick and handed it towards Snape.

Snape looked shocked at what the young girl had said and quickly flipped to the page where it revealed that she did do a truth serum potion and passed. “We might and we might not do such a potion this year, Miss Rayne. Good night.” And without another word, he turned and with his black cloak flowing behind him he was gone.

“I swear he almost fainted when he heard that you passed such a potion. I think he’s going to see how you do with it this year. He’s a hard teacher and he favors his House too many times.” Ron said.

“He takes many points away from our House because he hates our House and it can be for any reason like Harry’s cheeks turn red or that he didn’t watch Neville as he was putting ingredients into his cauldron. He’s horrible but a very good teacher.” Hermione stated

“Hermione!” barked Ron and Harry.

“It is true, he may be a horrible man but he is a very good teacher.” Hermione defended her comment about Professor Snape.

Stay tuned, the next chapter will be out shortly.
