A/N: Hi Everyone, I know I left you with a huge cliffhanger last time. I'm sorry, couldn't help myself, I've never done a cliffhanger before. So thanks to everyone who reviewed. I don't know when I'll get the next chapter up, hopefully soon. Do now on with the story.


On The Road Again


"Bloody Hell!" Ron exclaimed.

"Professor, are you sure?" Mrs. Weasley asked, look at Harry, who had frozen in fear.

I knew something like this would happed, Harry thought sadly, it always does.

"Reviler," Dumbledore said pointing his wand at Harry. It felt as though someone hade dropped a bucket of ice on his head. The gasps of surprise told Harry that his red hair and freckles had disappeared, living his mop of jet-black hair and lightning bolt scar.

"Blood Hell, its Harry Potter!" Ron gasped in surprise.

He really needs come up with a better line, Harry thought.

For the first time in his life, Harry was glad Grandma had insisted on teaching him to Apparate. Okay, she had only started a month ago, and he had been splinched once, that was not fun, but it was his only choice.

"You know,' Harry said, breaking the silence, "this has been fun, but I really should be going. Don't want to be sent to the Dursleys you know." And with that his Apparated home.

His Grandma was in the kitchen eating dinner when he Apparated in the hall. She jumped at the sudden noise, and then frowned.

Harry was only supposed to Apparate on emergences.

"Harry, what's wrong?" she asked, putting down her fork.

Harry quickly explained the situation. McGonagall only frowned and told him to go pack. She then called the school, to tell them to get another sub because her sister was ill and she had to leave at once.

She then called the person who found her teaching jobs to tell her to get another one quickly.

"So soon?" Mrs. Bumble, the woman, asked. McGonagall had found her though a teacher's organization found for teachers running away from something, well anything besides the law. They tended not to ask any questions and that was how McGonagall liked it.

"Yes Sally, my grandson, Harry, you remember him. He ran into some old friends of mine and it got ugly, so I thought it best to leave quickly." McGonagall said, Sally knew bits and pieces of McGonagall's past, like their real names, and that she was trying to keep Harry from his Aunt and Uncle. She didn't know about the magic side though.

"I'm sorry to hear that Minerva, well how dose Maryland sound to you?"

"Perfect," McGonagall said smiling.

When Harry came downstairs five minutes later with his suitcase McGonagall was sitting at the table finishing her supper.

"Done?" She asked, turning to look at him. They tried not to own much stuff, so that when they were forced to leave quickly there wouldn't be much to carry. The organization arranged for already furnished places, along with a car if needed.

"Yes, how about you?"

"I was done two minutes ago," McGonagall said in mock bragging.

"You cheated," Harry, said hotly, "you used magic."

They usually had a competition to see who could pack the fastest, and magic of all kinds was off limits.

"Well we're in a hurry, how dose Maryland sound?"

"Find I guess, that's near DC?" Harry asked.

"Yes, I though it was best to go back to the states for a while, also that's the only opening Sally had on short notice. Don't worry, it's just for about month, I'm teaching third grade this time, maybe I'll have you."

"NO!!!!!!" Harry said.

"Well, we'll talk about it later; we have to go, before they can track us down. Now that I know you can apparate properly, appear into the men's bathroom at the airport. Can you do that?"

Harry though for a moment, picturing the airport bathroom he had used so often on layovers. He nodded.

"Good, use the last one, its out of order, I'll meet you out side in two minutes, Okay?"

Harry nodded again and Apparated away.
