Before the end of the previous term, Second Years had been required to choose at least two electives for the Third Year from a number of options: Arithmancy, Muggle Studies, Divination, Study of Ancient Runes and Care of Magical Creatures. There were other, even more specialised electives available too, like Alchemy, Wizard Law, and Healing, but those were only for 5th years and above.
Hermione had wanted to take all of the third year and up electives, but Harry had pointed out that there just weren’t enough hours in the day. Hermione had then excitedly discovered in a book about uncommon magical artifacts that the Ministry had a collection of Time-Turners. There had been a bit of arguing about that, before Hermione had reluctantly conceded that even with Time-Turners, she would never be able to get enough sleep to keep on track in all of the classes.
Not to mention that Harry had thought he would have quidditch practice to contend with, and he was determined to stick with Hermione in all of their classes. They had eventually compromised on taking three of the classes instead of two or five. Which had then left the question of which three to take for Harry and Hermione to argue about.
Choosing Care of Magical Creatures to support Hagrid’s newfound status as a professor had been easy enough. Hermione was keen to take Muggle Studies to get a wizard’s perspective, but had conceded that it was a rather unnecessary course for a pair of wizards who had both grown up only knowing the muggle world (though Hermione had pointed out that Harry’s experiences as a muggle had been sadly lacking most of the good bits).
When they had discussed Ancient Runes, Harry decided that it looked much more interesting than he had initially thought it would be. So now it was down to Arithmancy and Divination. Harry thought that Arithmancy looked far out of his league, though Hermione had insisted that it was much more exacting and predictive than a woolly discipline like Divination. But as Harry had agreed to do Runes with her, which he’d thought looked quite difficult, she made a deal with Harry to give Divination a go.
Parvati had chosen Divination and Care of Magical Creatures too, so the three of them made their way up the steep spiral staircase to the top of the tower to the Divination classroom after breakfast.
Purple velvet curtains covered the windows of the stuffy room, which was dimly lit by candles. The air was heavy with a haze of smoke and smelled of a pungent spice which appeared to be coming from sticks of burning incense. Harry began to feel dizzy and plonked himself into the first seat he spotted at a round tea-table. Parvati and Hermione both took seats around the table with him. Seamus, Neville, and Ron picked the table between them and a table at which Lavender and Fay were already sitting.
Ron gave Harry a grin and a thumbs up when he saw him. Harry smiled back, feeling a bit giddy, and thinking things might be starting to look up. A tall thin woman festooned with scarves, beads, necklaces, and charms entered the class. Her round glasses were bigger and thicker than Harry’s, and he thought she rather looked like the “Hippie Freaks” that Uncle Vernon had railed on and on about. When she began to talk, she even sounded like one. But because his Uncle had hated “Hippies,” Harry was certain now that he had chosen a good class.
“Welcome children! My name is Professor Trelawney. How lovely it is to finally meet you in the physical world. In this class you will learn to use your inner-eye to look beyond the mundane illusion of reality to the Great Beyond, and there, together we shall discover the truth of our inner-selves and our futures...”
Hermione’s fluffy tail twitched, and she struggled not to roll her eyes. Parvati looked slightly awed, and her sleek black tail stood at attention. Ron and Seamus began snickering. Harry just tried not to fall asleep before class even got properly underway.
The professor passed around sheets of parchment with an overview of the course on them. The first thing Professor Trelawney touched on was Astrology and she had them all mock up a quick planetary chart based on their birthdays.
“Oh,” Harry heard Lavender say, “My planet is Uranus.”
“Can I see Uranus, Lavender?” Ron snickered loudly. Seamus guffawed, and Professor Trelawney snatched up everybody’s parchments. Her dreamy expression changed and she briefly looked remarkably like Professor McGonagall.
“MOVING on...” She said sharply, “We will begin with the rudiments of reading tea-leaves...”
Everyone had a cup of tea and drank them down until all that was left in their cups were soggy tea-leaves. Parvati, Hermione, and Harry helplessly stared at the bottom of their cups, trying to find some sort of pattern in the sludge until Trelawney came by their table.
The Professor took one look at Harry’s cup and shrieked, waking up the entire class.
“My... my dear boy, I am so sorry, you have the GRIM!”
“The what?” Asked a bewildered and suddenly concerned Harry.
“The Grim dear... A Black Beast from the Underworld which takes the form of a large Canine! It is a Dark Omen of Doom. Death stalks you Mr Potter and I am afraid you are not long for this world...”
Harry’s cheeks burned, and his face darkened in fury. He'd had enough of being singled out by teachers for dubious attention based on his status as the enemy of Voldemort. It was bad enough that he actually had to face death without someone pretending it was some great riddle which could only divined through mystical means.
Harry stood up suddenly and instead of addressing the shocked Professor he turned towards his startled wife.
“Hermione, I reckon you were right. This class looks like rubbish. Let’s go and see if we can still switch to Arithmancy.” He grabbed Hermione’s hand angrily, noisily flung open the hatch-door to the stairs, and together they left the classroom and didn't look back.
Parvati was astonished and angry too. She had thought this class would be fun, but she wasn’t about to stay if the teacher was going to rabbit on about the death of one of her best friends. She glanced around at the rest of the astounded students, then followed after Harry and Hermione without saying a word, her tail wagging in outrage.
Parvati caught up to her friends halfway down the staircase. It was too late to switch to Arithmancy today, the first period would be over in half an hour, and then it would be lunch time. But the three of them decided to ask Professor McGonagall after classes to get them in. Hermione and Parvati both promised to help Harry as much as they could with it, as he had never been very good at math in primary school.
The three young wizards decided to go outside onto the grounds. The crisp cool drizzle cleared the incense induced fog from their brains and they all felt much better when they returned to the Great Hall for lunch. They were all startled when a young female Auror-in-training with neon pink hair who was guarding the Great Hall with Dawlish spotted Harry and gleefully pulled him aside.
Parvati and Hermione both bristled angrily at the intrusion.
“It’s alright.” Whispered the girl to the trio. She barely looked old enough to be out of school. “I’m Sirius’s cousin, Tonks. He asked me to keep an eye on you two especially.” She said to Harry and Hermione.
“Don’t tell Dawlish though. I’ll get in trouble if he thinks I’m working with Sirius too. He’s with the Ministry, not the Order.” Tonks glanced over at Dawlish, who was standing on the opposite side of the Hall. “D’you three mind if I have lunch with you? I can tell Dawlish the headmaster said it’s alright.”
Hermione and Parvati could both sense that Tonks was telling the truth and they relaxed. Though they both appeared a bit cool to Tonks being quite so close to Harry and they each took one of his arms before agreeing. Tonks got the message and she chuckled.
“Don’t worry ladies, I like girls, and Harry’s a bit young for me. I just had my 20th birthday.”
Harry looked relieved, as did Hermione and Parvati. Tonks was cute, but Harry wasn’t sure if he was ready to be chased by an older woman. She was a lot of fun though, and the three of them found a dry spot near the quidditch pitch to eat lunch and chat.
“Harry,” began Tonks after hastily swallowing her last bite of food, “Sirius told me something interesting about you...”
Harry raised his eyebrows, and Tonks continued excitedly.
“ 'e said you told him about how your Aunt would always try to cut your hair and it would always grow back by the next mornin’... ” Harry nodded, his own mouth still full of ham sandwich, and Tonks went on.
“You see my pink hair. That’s not dye. I can do the same thing as you Harry, but I can control it. I’m what people call a Metamorphmagus. Howdja like it if I told you that you could grow a cat-tail too whenever you wanted to?”
Harry’s jaw dropped and the piece of sandwich fell out of Harry’s mouth. Hermione spewed tea from hers, and Parvati just looked shocked; both of their tails quivered in wonderment.
Harry was so thrilled at the idea of being able to alter his appearance at will, that he was distracted throughout their entire first Care of Magical Creatures lesson with Hagrid. He managed to introduce himself to the Hippogriff well enough, but even a half-eagle half-horse couldn’t keep himself from wondering what it would be like to be with Hermione, Luna, and Parvati with his own furry tail and ears, and he began to get really excited at the thought.
Tonks had said it would be a lot of work, but she reckoned that Harry could learn to do it quite well by Christmas. Harry was glad now that he didn’t have quidditch to contend with. With the extra classes, and learning how to become a Metamorphmagus, he would be kept very busy.
