Chapter Two

Albus walked nervously into the entrance hall, he was met by shouts of welcome and smiles but knew that they wouldn't last for long. Tom McGonagall came down the stairs and Hazel McGonagall came in from the kitchen. "Why are you here Albus?" Asked Tom, who hadn't been expecting him. "Come into the drawing room!"

Albus dutifully followed, almost quaking in anticipation of what he was going to have to say and sat down in an armchair.

The others began to come into the room, but Albus spoke up. "I would prefer to speak with Tom and Hazel alone, if you don't mind?"

They promptly left the room and Tom and Hazel sat back, quite relaxed.

"The reason I have come to see you here is one of a most serious nature." He began and then paused. "It concerns the fight against Grindlewald and you both in a very close nature."

The couple facing him frowned, puzzled at this statement.

"I am afraid that your son, Andrew, has been killed during this fight. I also feel that it is my duty to inform you that it was I that killed him, and that he was fighting on the side of Grindlewald."

Hazel widened her eyes at this, and then fainted. Tom looked extremely angry and then stood up. "If this is truly what happened then I know I shall forgive you one day Albus, but it is too soon today. I think I am justified in asking you to leave my house."

Albus nodded, he had been expecting this reaction and had no problem with leaving the house. He knew that if he stayed then he would face a few of the McGonagall's wraths. He exited quickly and then kept his head down as he passed Minerva, who was playing with her niece on the lawn, he didn't want to even look her in the face.

Sorry that's so short, but I have exams on, and I thought that some kind of an update was better than none. Next chapter is Minerva's reaction. Keep reviewing!
