~ Day 7 ~

Talking To Portraits

Katherine sneaked into the Albus's office. He should be gone, but just in case she peeked through the room. No one was there. Katherine looked up at the wall. All of the previous Headmasters and Headmistresses were looking at her in confusion except for Armando. He didn't make eye contact, he knew why Katherine was there. Katherine picked up a chair and placed it in front of Armando's portrait. She sat for a moment, waiting. He finally looked at her.

"Armando? Are you hiding something from me?" Katherine asked politely. Armando looked away from Katherine.

"I'm not allowed to tell you anything." Armando said. Katherine smiled. They were trying to trick her.

"You know better than to lie to me Armando. Did Minerva tell you not to say anything?" Armando nodded his head.

"That's all I needed to know." Katherine moved the chair back to its place. And then left the room smiling. As the door shut Armando smiled as well.

Minerva came out from under the desk. She sat down on the couch and looked up at Armando. "You were great Armando." Minerva said cheerfully.

"Thank you my dear. You are very sneaky Minerva. I would of never believed you to be the kind of person to pull something like this on Katherine."

"Well I am my mother's daughter."

The tables have turned again. Yes, this is short. I will make the next chapter long. It's a promise!!!!
