Scene Fifteen

In Great Hall. The tables have been cleared. Dumbledore and Hermione are practicing spells

Dumbledore: Good, good, Ms. Granger. You're doing marvelous.

Hermione: Thank you, Dumbledore.

Dumbledore: You're welcome. Now, you have to go home tomorrow, so this will be our last practice.

Hermione: Already?

Dumbledore: I'm afraid so, Ms. Granger. I know, time flies when you're having fun. We've made much progress in our time together. Soon, you'll be nearly as good as I.

Hermione: Oh, that will never happen, Dumbledore!

Dumbledore: Well, I am getting old, you know? Sooner or later, I will be forced to leave this world.

Hermione: Don't talk that way!

Dumbledore: It is only the truth. It may come sooner than we expect.

Hermione: Why do you say that?

Dumbledore: Oh, Ms. Granger, you wouldn't believe the things I hear these days!

Something Bad
