Teddy had changed recently, so he felt good enough to teach the up coming lesson.He was just more or less nervous because he wanted to reach the students.To let them see a different side to werewolves.He hoped he could do this, and shed a new light in some way or fashion.He watched as the students filled in, making sure everyone was there.As soon as they were he came to the front of his desk and began the lesson.
"Welcome students,I am your teacher Professor Lupin.Today we will be learning about werewolves.Now if you have read the pages on them in your books, you would find it to say that they are dangerous, or other things.some of which is true, but some is not.The wizards who wrote and found out all this knowledge were not werewolves, so they were more or less observing rather then actually knowing what they were writing."
He spoke with conviction in his eyes, hoping the students would see he did know what he was talking about."Now I know you may wonder as to how do I know this.Well first off I guarantee all of you are safe, I nor any of the wolves you will meet today will harm you in anyway.We are are here in fact to help you.Yes I am a werewolf.I have been one since birth.Many of you may know or have heard of my father, Remus Lupin.Many of your relatives might have been taught by him.So today my intent is to let you know the truth about werewolves."
It felt odd to finally have that secret out.He had been hiding it for years, as so others would not fear him.He just hope it would remain that way after today."Now through out this lesson I will show you the differences of real wolves and werewolves.First off lets go with the full moon.Why does a werewolf change, because it is drawn to the full moon.Now a wolf as we all know seems to howl at the moon.It is in fact communicating with its pack, not howling at the moon.A werewolf howls and changes on the full moon, because it is bliss.The forest is their home, a place they can be free, run jump, hunt, or anything they please.The full moon lights up this home, and its like magic.It fuels the wolf to run, jump, and play, or whatever else it wants to.It's kinda like a kid at a beach.They see the water and all that surrounds them, and all they want to do is have fun.They are filled with energy, thats what the moon does, and we change."
His words he hoped reached the students, as he acted out his passion for this with his hands.He could feel that energy he spoke of run through his body and he hoped by putting it in a way that they could relate to, that they would too."However some don't change on the full moon.I have hidden that I am a werewolf for eighteen years.I would not change on the full moon. So when I was around my friends and family, they thought I was normal.There are four ability's that a wolf can have.One is control, this one I have.The passion and drive which I just spoke of is a hard thing to control.Though for some it can be.I and Calvin De lorme both have this ability."
"The second ability is strength.Now a werewolf can heal in a matter of seconds.Yes it still hurts, however someone with strength can take more then someone who doesn't.They are also way stronger.someone with this ability can take their fist shove it through a thick tree and go all the way through.It will leave damage, but it wont last too long.Now you may think that in fight thats the better ability to win with.However lets say someone with the ability of control has not change in five months.He could punch his fist through two trees and still have enough energy to keep fighting with that same hand.I highly suggest that you ask someone with this ability when was the last time you changed.If they say more then three months, get the heck away from them.the longer they keep it in the more power they have.It's like being caged.If you were caged for a long while, you may find you have built up energy, thats exactly what this is like."
"The third ability is knowing as we call it.A werewolf with this ability knows things that others seem not to know.They are very good at figuring things out, finding knowledge, and really seeming to know you.They dig up facts from all over, they watch you.Figure out what kind of person you are, how you react to things, stuff like that.They then go to you befriend you and gain your trust."
"the fourth and last ability is charm.These werewolves can use eyes, words, or actions to get you to do what they want.They are very cunning I would most with this ability in slytherin.Now with all this said you may think that werewolves are still bad.Though I tell you this is not that case.It is the wizard that makes the werewolf good or bad.The wolf although it is like a different part of us, it's still us.It feels what we feel, it knows who we care about.It's like a wolf,it knows who its pack is, who is it enemy, and all that.So really it is the wizards choices as to what the wolf will be or do.You can use the ability's for both good and bad."
Teddy sighed as he complied his thoughts.He hoped he wasn't moving to fast for them all, but he had allot to say in a short matter of time."Now moving on.Lets talk about wolfsbane potion.This allows a werewolf that doesn't have the ability of control, to have control.It states in your books that it controls some of the worst effects of the condition.Pretty much this is true, it helps you to keep a human mind.It also states that taking a regular regimen of Wolfsbane Potion will not transform until the moonlight actually strikes you.This of course goes for someone again without the ability of control.The wolfsbane potion turns off the instinct,if you take a regular regain of this you will not know when the next full moon is.So if your inside you will not change.However when you go out you will.Why this is is because The bones and mussels in your body know the change and all though you take this regain and your instincts aren't there as much they are still there.They are muffled though, so a look at the moon and the body things change.Get it? if you do have any questions please ask them at the end and I will explain it further."
"Now lets move on to becoming a werewolf.Now as a werewolf you have a human from and a wolf form.Lets say the human form is shown and out, like me now.If I were to bite you nothing would happen.Thats because the human genetics are over powering the wolf genetics that is in my blood.Now if I was a wolf, or let more wolf aspects come out and over power the human part you would be changed if I were to bite.Lets take Bill Weasley for example.He was bitten and slashed by Fenrir Greyback.However he is not nor will be a werewolf.This was due to the fact that when he was attacked Fenrir changed only a few things, like his teeth, and fingers.He didn't let the wolf out enough to over power the human part of him.Lets say I was to keep my human shape, however I let my fingers change, my ears change,my teeth,my mind.The human part of me would be over powered by the wolf.If I was to bite someone like that, they would be changed.So you see one has to over power the other."
Teddy opened his copy of the book they had all been asked to get for this class."Now lets move on.In your books it is stated that All trace of human awareness is gone and the werewolf will attack any witch or wizard, including the werewolf's best friends."As he finished reading he closed the book and set it back down on his desk."Now this is not true exactly true.When we change the human mind is gone, but as I stated before there is a connection between wizard and wolf.It's like a unspoken connection that when two people know that they are made to be together have.Or whatever that whole love at first site thing goes.Now lets say I am with Edward Farns.He graduated with me, so you all may not know him."
"Now lets say I had not changed in a while and we were outside.I see the moon, the light, and I can't control it, I change.The body is the first thing to change, the comes the mind.Its kinda like when you are first waking up.Your disoriented, you cant take in whats around, information, things like that.You have to wake up in order for your mind to react to things in a normal way.This is what the wolf feels like.It's not sure of it's surroundings, it's trying to wake up.So if there is someone there, and they are making noise freaking out, or whatever, the wolf sees it but doesn't take it in that it is not a threat.So hence they attack even someone they care for.Though if you back off from their line of vision, give them a few minutes, I assure you they will be like a wolf.They will realize that you are not a threat, know your scent, and not harm you.Unless of course it is in the nature of the wizard."
"Now moving on again.The differences and similarity's to actual wolves.Now it is stated in your books that the pupils of the eyes, snout shape, and tufted tail are different then a wolves.This true, but here are some facts that wizards didn't find out.If you listen carefully into the night and hear howling.Listen to it closely the wolves howl is a higher pitch then a werewolves.You know I think in fact it could be fun.the next full moon is in fact tomorrow meet me here and we will go out and determine which is a wolves howl and which is a werewolves.Thats part of your homework."
"So with all this said I hope you all have learned something, and see that werewolves are not in fact bad.Now I take questions.After which we will move on to how to defend ones self form a werewolf, and of course the rest of your homework.Fun huh, so any questions?"Teddy folded his arms as he leaned against his desk, and waited to see if anyone did have a question.
"Welcome students,I am your teacher Professor Lupin.Today we will be learning about werewolves.Now if you have read the pages on them in your books, you would find it to say that they are dangerous, or other things.some of which is true, but some is not.The wizards who wrote and found out all this knowledge were not werewolves, so they were more or less observing rather then actually knowing what they were writing."
