The starting feast was fairly uneventful. The Slytherin table looked strange without any 7th year students and only two 6th years. Professors Slughorn and Karkaroff were introduced. At the end of the meal, Phestus and Emily stood up and called out: “First Years! First Years! This way!” as they led the new members of Slytherin down into the dungeon. When they got to the Slytherin common room, Daphne Greengrass addressed them.
“Welcome to Slytherin! I am your 6th year Prefect, Daphne Greengrass, and these are your 5th year prefects, Hephestus Smith and Emily Le Strange. At this point, we normally begin a week of hazing for the new 1st years, administered by the 7th years. However, last year, there was an incident that left all of the 7th years either dead or expelled. Since many students consider Slave Week to be abusive, we’ve decided, as an experiment, to dispense with it this year. Instead, the older students will be having a series of classes and demonstrations over the next week where you will be taught the mysteries of Slytherin. And now, let us begin a tour of the Slytherin Dungeon.”
The next morning, after breakfast, Professor Slughorn came over to the Slytherin Table to help Daphne and Pansy pick their N.E.W.T. level classes. Everyone else just went to their first class.

“Good morning,” began Professor Karkaroff. “Velcome to Defense Against the Dark Arts, Level 5. Some of you may already know that I used to be Headmaster at Durmstrang and that ve taught the Dark Arts as part of the Curriculum there. I have received special permission from Professor Dumbledore to include some of these Dark curses and more importantly, how to defend yourselves against them. I also have noticed that Professor Scrimgeour did not include instruction on the Unforgivables last year so our first lesson vill correct that oversight.”
Luna stayed after class to speak with Professor Karkaroff.
“Is there something I can help you vith,” asked Karkaroff.
“Oh yes,” said Luna. “Some of us have started a club to independently study Defense. I believe you saw our abilities first hand when we rescued you? Anyway, we are quite a bit above our grade level in defense and wondered if you could teach us some of the advanced Dark Arts that you taught at Durmstrang?”
“I vould be happy do so,” said Karkaroff. “But after the display I saw ven you rescued me, I’m not sure I have much to teach you.”

“I think that will be enough for tonight,” said Dumbledore.
“Wait a minute! That’s it?” demanded Harry. “You set up special lessons with me so that you could show me bits and pieces of Voldemort’s origins?”
“Harry, I think the information I am sharing with you will prove the key to defeating Voldemort,” replied Dumbledore.
“Aren’t you going to teach me any counter curses or counter jinxes?” demanded Harry. “Aren’t you going to teach me some secret spells that even Tom doesn’t know? IF I’M GOING TO CLEAN UP YOUR FAILIURE, I NEED THE POWER TO DO SO! NOT SOME TOUCHY FEELY STUFF ABOUT WHAT A SICK FAMILY HE CAME FROM!”
“Harry, calm yourself,” said Dumbledore. “If you really want to learn those things I’ll teach them to you.”
“Thank you!” huffed Harry.
“But only on the condition that you also let me share my knowledge of Tom’s past and how it can be used against him,” said Dumbledore.

“And now, I vill teach you the Advenius Jinx,” said Professor Karkaroff to the senior members of the D.A. “This jinx sends your consciousness into the body of your future self. It does this by creating a duplicate of your soul. Vone of you runs the body normally, vhile the other you journeys into the future. Vhen you arrive in the future, the duplicate is annihilated and the soul from the past resumes its body normally.”
“Why would anybody do this?” asked Hermione.
“Generally, it is done vhen you are vorking on a project that is so secret, even YOU are not allowed to know about it. It is accomplished by vaving your vand in this manner and saying the command vord, Advenio. Don’t vorry. It is perfectly safe. At first you vill only be able to travel a few seconds into the future. Vith practice, you vill eventually be able to travel veeks into the future. So let’s give it a try. Wone, two, Advenio!”
“Huh? Nothing happened,” said Harry.
