57 A Little Peek of his past self

Blair was standing in the middle of his classroom, 4 Fourth-year students lying in front of him, Stunned with their eyes wide opened. Whereas the other students were observing from afar with full concentration. They were so used to this type of scenes that even the Hufflepuff didn't look scared, unlike the first time they attended his class.

"Acceptable, next group, please revive them for me." The Weasley twins and Prewett brothers revived the students lying on the ground. Before nervously pointing their wand towards Blair.

"Now as I said early, coordination is the main factor when you are fighting in a group. Both of your fathers." Blair glanced at the Prewett brothers." Survived the war because of their excellent coordination. Gideon would protect his brother while sending few stunners, Whereas Fabian would be on full-on offence. Both of them made such a great duo that they were able to fight 5 inner circle death eaters all by themselves. NOW attack me."

The four students were ready to attack when Professor McGonagall came rushing in his class.

"Everyone, the class is dismissed, I want every single one of you in your common room this instant, Blair can you please come with." Her voice was a little grave. She glanced at him before turning around and walked through the exit. Blair followed her.

"There has been another attack, Two students have been petrified," Minerva said without turning around, Blair had a bad feeling about this because this was the first time any professor came to personally call him. most of the time he would be called through a Patronus or through a student. He hastened his pace towards the infirmary, leaving the Transfiguration teacher behind.

Inside the infirmary, Dumbledore was standing quietly near the door. He just gave him a reassuring look and didn't say anything else. Now Blair was really Nervous. He went further inside just to see a motionless Hermione laying on the bed holding a small hand mirror in her hand. But, horror-struck him as soon as he saw the person next to her, It was Aurora. Just like Hermione, she was also motionless, her wide grey eyes which were lively this morning, were now glassy and unfocused, Blair became motionless as soon as he saw her In this state, Some old nightmares resurfaced again, Suddenly a memory of glassy-eyed Olivia sitting in her hospital ward blankly looking at the front resurfaced. His heart rate fasten a bit and he quickly took out his wand and began to frantically diagnose her, Even though Minerva has informed him that she was petrified. He wanted to confirm it himself. After few minutes of frantically diagnosing Aurora, he finally put down his wand back to wand holster.

His frantic eyes suddenly turned cold. His heavy breathing turned normal, his body trembling with rage and his fingers curling together forming a fist. After few more second his grey eyes began to glow and the glass containers filled with potions around him began to break one after another, shattered glasses flying everywhere. There was only one thing in his mind.

'Kill'

Kill the person who was responsible for this. He wanted to grant that bastard the most horrifying death he could offer. He wanted to torture the attacker until he/she descends into madness. he wanted to go berserk, break everything around him. Soon enough the glasses of the hospital windows shattered with a bang. He was so engrossed in his rage that he didn't even notice Dumbeldore calling out his name multiple times.

"...r, Blair, BLAIR" Finally he heard Dumbledore's voice from behind.

He came to his senses and looked around himself just to see half of the infirmary was destroyed. broken windows, shattered glass with potions spilled all over the ground. Patients in the infirmary were looking at him with fear. Even though they just got a glance of his rage it still was terrifying.

"Blair come with me to my office. Minerva, can you please fix this." Dumbledore said while walking out of the infirmary followed by Blair. On his way, he came across Sirius and Melania frantically rushing towards the infirmary. They stopped as soon as they saw their father. Blair reassured them before continued walking towards the headmaster office.

The next day...

.

Blair was sitting on his chair, looking at the duelling pair of Gryffindors in front of him. There was silence, abnormal silence throughout the class. Today no one dared to make a single noise in the class after seeing his cold eyes, One can still see the anger in his eyes. They wonder what their professor would do if he found the culprit. Even Malfoy who was openly bragging through out the day was silent.

Blair was also secretly using Legilimency on every single student, to find the culprit. But the results up till now was unsuccessful. Right then he made eye contact with the Malfoy, suddenly he saw the potion classroom with Draco nearly shouting about how his father kicked out Dumbledore and how their potion teacher should apply for headmaster position. The next sentence that Draco said to his friend while in the potion classroom caused Blair to nearly cast a Cricuatus curse on the blonde brat.

"Bet you five Galleons the next one dies. Pity it wasn't Granger"

Blair stopped his Legilimency spell and got up from his chair.

"Class dismissed, "

The reason he dismissed the class this early because He wasn't confident enough to stop himself from casting any hex on the blonde brat if he saw his face one more time.

.

A few weeks later.

.

Blair's anger subsided a bit after a few weeks of normal daily routine. he would teach the class, visit Aurora and randomly use Legilimency on the students. He knew it was illegal, but it really was necessary to find the attacker.

Right now Blair was sitting in his office doing some paperwork on the latest werewolf act. He was finally able to pass the act after years of struggle in Wizengamots. Another good news was that Dumbledore was coming back to Hogwarts.

Suddenly he heard Minerva's voice.

"All students to return to their House dormitories at once. All teachers return to the staffroom. Immediately, please."
