Inside Albus Dumbledore's cluttered office, the old man paced back and forth occasionally pausing to fiddle with several different shiny objects. Sitting on one side of the Professor's vast desk was a confused looking boy with shaggy black hair and bright green eyes.

'Professor?,' Harry Potter asked tentatively, it was extremely unusual for Professor Dumbledore to be in this much distress, 'Is everything okay?'

'Of course not Harry! It's all turning upside down! Ugh this is bad, really bad' He shook his head and placed it heavily in his hands. After a few moments awkward silence,

'Pardon me for asking, but what's happening Sir?' Harry asked getting slightly worried about the old babbling Professor. Dumbledore sighed

'The cats out of the bag now I guess. Harry this may be hard to hear but when you were a baby and Voldemort cursed you with the killing curse, there were some marginal side effects,' Harry's look of complete confusion made the professor sigh heavier, 'Harry you are really... a girl.' There was a moments silence before Harry burst out laughing.

As he wiped a tear from his eye he said 'Good one Sir' and started chuckling quietly to himself mouthing a girl!

'Harry I'm serious. When Voldemort cursed you, you survived it. However a transformation occurred in you leaving you as a woman. Voldemort didn't know because he died before you changed sex. I knew Voldemort would one day return and if he found you as a girl... well let's just say that things could have got complicated. So I set a spell on you to maintain your body as a boys. However even though the magic is strong, it was due to fade when you neared you 17th birthday as that is when you came of age. Unfortunately when Voldemort entered your body last year and took over your body systems, the magic started to disappear faster. I thought I should tell you before, but I wasn't sure when exactly it would happen, besides I didn't see you over the summer holidays which is why I called you here today. I'm sorry for not telling you sooner.' The Professor looked at Harry seeking a apology acceptance but all he received was a shocked look. The boy paled. 'Harry?' and he fainted.
