After the horned man known as Susanno had led McGonagall out of the palace, she apparated to Hogsmead village, and began her walk back up to Hogwarts castle.
As soon as she entered she made her way towards the Headmasters office. Saying the password to the gargoyle she walked up the spiral staircase, and knocked on the wooden door.
"Come in," a grandfatherly like voice responded. As McGonagall entered she noticed that the head of Slytherin house, Severus Snape, was there as well.
"Ah Minerva," Dumbledore said upon seeing his deputy. "I trust you got to meet with young Mister Potter?"
"Indeed I did Albus," McGonagall replied curtly.
"And, where has he been this last year? Who has been taking care of him? Will he be attending? Did you get him to go back to his relatives?" Dumbledore asked in succession.
Upon hearing who the topic of discussion was Snape gave one of his infamous sneers. It appeared that Severus had not gotten over his grudge against James, and would now carry it over onto Harry.
"To answer your questions, Mister Potter has been living in the Muggle Imperial Palace under the protection of Night Raid and the Jaeger task force. Mister Potter will be attending, but will choose whether or not he wishes to stay in the Wizarding World after his first year. And there is no way Mister Potter will be returning to his relatives, seeing as Petunia is currently in prison," McGonagall answered.
"I suppose that makes sense," Snape said. "No regular sized house can hold the boys ego. He needs an entire palace to contain it. He must be more arrogant then I thought."
"On the contrary Professor Snape," McGonagall said glaring at the potions master, "Mister Potter came across as a humble and polite individual. I would say that he would make an ideal Ravenclaw or Hufflepuff."
Snape's sneer lessened slightly, but he still had a sour look on his face.
"Minerva you say young Harry is with these Night Raid and Jaeger people," Dumbledore spoke again. "Who are they exactly?"
"To put it mildly they are essentially elite task and police force within the muggle community, one of their members, Akame I believe, witnessed him being beaten by his uncle, whom you assured me would treat him as one of their own!" McGonagall vented. "She rescued him and brought him back to the palace."
"Minerva Harry cannot stay there with them!" Dumbledore said with great concern in his grandfatherly voice. "That woman is a murderer! Harry Potter is not safe there he must be returned to his relatives at once! There must be a way to get Petunia out. The blood wards-"
"Were meant to protect against outside threats Albus, not from the inside," McGonagall interrupted showing off her Gryffindor fire. "If you ask me Mister Potter is better off with them in just a year then he was with his relatives for ten."
"Minerva you forget the fact that only the Dursley's house protects from Death Eater attacks, due to the wards," Dumbledore countered.
"Wards or not those people seem more than capable of defending themselves along with Mister Potter."
Dumbledore just shook his head refusing to give up his side of the argument. "Severus," Dumbledore addressed the potions master, "please help her to see reason."
Snape glanced between the desperate looking Headmaster and the strict lioness of Gryffindor house. "It really isn't my place to decide where the boy lives, but it is common knowledge that Petunia Dursley is a spiteful woman, and with her husband's passing who knows what mental state she's in."
McGonagall had to admit she never thought she would hear the day Snape would defend a Potter, let alone the son of his rival.
Snape seemed to guess what McGonagall was thinking. "Don't get me wrong I have no love for the boy, I was merely stating a fact."
"But still Harry is in the company of a murderer," Dumbledore stressed. "Who knows how he's been influenced by it? For the sake of the greater good we should-"
"Should what Albus?" McGonagall asked thinning her lips and raising an eyebrow. "Are you suggesting kidnapping the boy? If you are so concerned about Harry being near a killer you should take into account what she, or any of them, would do if you attempted that."
Dumbledore was about to reply but McGonagall beat him to it. "Leave it be Albus. Mister Potter is safe and well kept, I can only suggest that you learn the importance of guardianship." With that McGonagall turned and left the office.
Snape stared at the door, then back to Dumbledore, who was slouched over in his chair. Deciding to take his leave Snape exited through the same door as McGonagall, leaving the Headmaster to ponder what to do next.
