Yeah! Here's the new chapter!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The days at school continued to pass normally as I waited for the day when delegations from Beauxbatons and Durmstrang would co to Hogwarts with their students.
But until that day arrived, I continued to participate in classes like any other student, acting normally while learning more about magic. However, I could only have this normal life inside a classroom, since outside of them my life was not as simple and peaceful as that.
Whenever I walked the corridors or went sowhere in the castle I could feel many eyes on , in addition to uncomfortable whispers from the other students.
I thought that as the days went by, the gossip and rumors about would subside, but it seems that this was not the case.
In fact the opposite happened, as the other students beca even more cautious with , with their creativity to create rumors increasing as well.
And the reason for this was that in DADA classes I was still demonstrating my extensive knowledge of the dark arts, which seed to have confird the rumor that I was a dark wizard who was doing hidden studies and experints at Hogwarts.
I could have tried not to stand out so much in class, but it seems that from my first DADA class Moody took a personal interest in , and because of that he started asking a lot of deep and complex questions in every class.
And with each correct answer and each explanation I gave him, he got even more excited, and I knew that I might have answered so questions wrong on purpose, but that wouldn't do much good.
The questions he asked were complex and a little difficult, especially for soone in my year, but they were nothing compared to the questions he asked us about Unforgivable Curses in our first class.
And knowing that, I didn't see the point in trying to answer his questions incorrectly, since it didn't make sense for to know so much about the Unforgivables but not know about other curses.
In fact, it would be even weirder if my advanced knowledge was just about Unforgivable Curses.
But now because of that I have to be considered Moody's 'favorite student' who knows almost everything about the dark arts and dark magic.
And again I cursed myself internally for not knowing how to control my mouth in my first class, since now I had to endure the looks and feelings of fear and caution from my classmates.
The only thing that could be considered 'good' about this whole situation is that now so Slytherins seed to be acting friendlier towards .
So seed to have changed their attitude because of fear, and others because they found a companion who also 'admired' and was 'passionate' for the dark arts.
And I made a point of keeping my distance from those who belonged to the latter group, rembering their faces and nas to add to my ntal list of 'possible future Death Eaters'.
But between friendly Slytherins, becoming a Dark wizard, and a crazy Death Eater taking an interest in , I could still say that my days at school were pretty quiet compared to the days to co.

-DADA's Classroom-
"Well, I already explained to you how so curses work and gave you so tips on the best ways to avoid being hit by them, however these tips were for offensive and flashy curses" Moody started to say to us, walking back and forth in front of his desk while his magical eye road the room and the students.
"There are many curses that are more subtle, and you don't realize you've been hit by one and are under it until it's too late."
Pausing, Moody turned to us, "And you've seen one of these curses before, and it's the worst of them all, also being one of the strongest... And I'm talking about the Imperius Curse"
And as soon as he said that so of the students who still rembered his demonstration in our first class grimaced, with Davis being the most affected.
"I'm sure you've already heard from your colleagues what lesson I'm going to teach you in this class, but I'm going to say it anyway." Moody said, taking out his wand and staring at us, and I could feel a faint satisfaction coming from him.
"In this class I'm going to cast the Imperius Curse on all of you so you'll know what it feels like to be under this spell, as well as build resistance against it"
And as soon as he finished speaking Lily held up her hand.
"Professor Moody, I read that being under the Imperius Curse for a prolonged ti can cause severe ntal damage to the victim, is that true?" the little girl asked.
"Oh, looks like soone else has been studying for my classes" Moody said, giving Lily a satisfied nod, "And to your question Miss Moon, yes, that's true."
"So this lesson is not going to be dangerous for us?" Anthony asked worriedly.
"Bullshit" Moody said dismissively, "As it is written in the book Miss Moon read, the curse only causes severe damage if the person is under the curse's effect for a long ti, and that ti would be anywhere from weeks to months, and in this class you will be under the effect of the curse for a maximum of 20 seconds"
"Oh, good" Anthony said in relief, and he might have been the only one to say sothing, but I could feel the relief coming from almost everyone in the classroom.
"Any more questions?" Moody asked looking at us, and seeing that no one had another question he decided to get on with the lesson.
"Fine" he said, "Then let's get started with the lesson. As soon as I call your na you will rise and step forward, and then I will cast the curse on you... And rember to try to resist my commands as much as you can with all your will power."
And what followed shortly thereafter was an interesting and even comical lesson, with Moody cursing student after student, ordering them to do everything from dancing to imitating a seagull.
So of my classmates tried to resist the curse, with so standing still for about 2 seconds before obeying Moody while others moved slowly, trying to regain control of their body, but in the end they all gave in.
And among all of them, the ones that showed a stronger will than most, managing to resist even more were Anthony, sothing that surprised , Greengrass, and Malfoy.
And of these three, the most impressive was Malfoy, who managed to resist for 4 seconds before starting to play an invisible violin.
But after all my classmates, it was finally my turn, with being the last to be called, probably sothing planned by Moody.
When my na was called all eyes fell on , and I could feel a disconcerting excitent coming from Moody.
But knowing there wasn't much I could do in this situation, I got up, also a little curious as to what it would be like to be under the Imperius Curse.
Taking a step forward I ca face to face with Moody, standing still as I waited for him to cast the curse.
And showing that he wasn't in the mood to wait he imdiately cast the curse on .
"{Imperius}" Moody said, waving his wand, and I could feel the invisible curse exiting his wand and heading towards .
And as soon as the curse hit I felt a short, fleeting lightness in my mind, but quickly that feeling disappeared.
I then stood there staring at Moody, who looked at confused as I waited for him to try to control .
'Is this what it feels like to be under the Imperius Curse?' I wondered, looking down at myself, 'Strange. I don't feel anything and I don't feel different'
"Impressive" Moody said, snapping out of my thoughts and making look at him.
And looking at him I could see his amazed look, "You completely ignored the curse... In fact it didn't even have an effect on you" he said.
'Huh? So that's why I didn't feel him in my mind trying to control ?' I wondered.
'Well, maybe it's because my mind is already very well trained against these ntal invasions because of the Horcruxes' I theorized, grimacing at the mories that ca to my mind.
But unaware of my thoughts Moody turned to the class.
"You've just witnessed an impressive feat. He just threw the curse away like it was nothing, sothing even so well-trained Aurors can't do!" he said, before looking back at .
"Congratulations son, I was right to say that you would be an interesting student to teach" he told , with a half smile, "You can go back to your seat"
"Thank you teacher" I said, sitting up.
And looking to the side I could see Terry staring at dryly.
"Couldn't you be a little more normal?" he asked .
"Bitch, I'm Ethan Night" I huffed, "And besides everyone knows that normal isn't a word that makes it into the dictionary of people in the wizarding world"
"Well... You have a point"
End.
