Previously in chapter Four: "Well Harry," Sirius said "there were these two girls and they were…" and with that the sound died down and the Headmaster and Deputy Headmistress continued to talk about the old times.

Chapter Five

(Next day in Albus' office)

Like last night, Albus, Minerva, Harry, Hermione, Ron, Remus and Sirius were all sitting in Albus' office, but this time they had two new additions, Sybil and Severus, who were sitting on a couch in the corner, trying to digest this new information about their employer and co-worker… well, Severus was, Sybil, upon hearing the news, said that she had known all along, having seen it in the orb only weeks after starting her job, which caused Minerva to roll her eyes all through the explanation.

" Well, I think that sums up the explanations from last night, don't you think my dear?" said a bouncing Albus; while sucking on a lemon drop. Minerva, on the other hand, was nursing a fifth cup of coffee, much to the shock of the occupants of the room, saying

"Tea is soothing, coffee is intense; and soothing does nothing to wake me up, so stop staring! And Albus, it was forty-nine years ago!"

And with that, she took a rather large gulp of coffee and let Albus comprehend what she just said.

"Well as riveting this all is, I do have a few questions for you two, if you are done with the explanations."

Said a quirked eye browed Severus, while putting an arm around Sybil, who was gazing at her engagement ring lovingly.

"Well, fire away my boy!" exclaimed Albus in a jovial voice.

" First off, Just for personal reference of course, but, Minerva, where is that spot by the beach that you can't get your eyes burned out of your head while sun tanning?"

"Third palm tree to the left of the lemon drop vender, the usual palm tree."

Turning to Albus, Severus asked,

"Is this how she normally talks?"

"Yes."

"And Second…. What happened after she showed you said spot?"

" Do you just want us to continue with the story?"

"If you feel the need to."

"That's just Severus' way of saying that he wants story time, without making it seem like he's gone soft"

Sirius said to Harry; in a staged whisper. Severus glared at Sirius and huffed but said nothing; instead he looked at Albus and Minerva expectedly.

"Alright" Minerva cut off before anyone got killed,

"Albus why don't you go on with the story?"

"Quite right Minnie darli-"

"I think I speak for everyone in this room in saying PLEASE DON'T TALK LIKE THAT WHILE WE'RE HERE! THANK YOU!" Severus yelled, looking positively green.

"I second that motion" Harry raised his hand as if agreeing to a new law in parliament.

"Harry, put your goddamn hand down!"

"Yes Sirius."

"May I continue now?"

At the silence Albus popped a lemon drop into his mouth, thinking they were really quite good…

Now, back to the story…

Flashback forty-NINE years ago, on some beach in Columbia

"Minerva, how far is this Legendary spot from here?" asked a panting Albus, all the while admiring the way Minerva's bathing suit clung to her, just when she turned around rolling her eyes, saying

"We're nearly there Albus, you must really be out of shape to be tired already!"

"Well, I did take some time off after taking out that Grizzly old idiot, Grindalwald, I guess I should get back into shape before the new school year; wouldn't want all of the younglings getting the better of me now would I!"

That being said, they continued their walk to a spot just to the left of a lemon drop vender…

"Ha ha! I think I might just like this spot!" cried Albus, buying a rather large bag of lemon drops and popping one into his mouth before offering the bag to Minerva, who took one; then after eating it said,

"You know Albus, all of that sugar can't possibly be good for you."

"Ah, Minerva, as the saying goes, 'life is short, live it to the fullest!"

With a roll of her eyes she walked past three palm trees to the left of the lemon drop vender, and set down her towel in the place she occupied earlier that morning. With that she pulled out her wand.

"Minerva, what do you need your wand for?"

"Albus, while there is no way to prevent you from turning into a lobster, I am already tan, and therefore I can use a spell that a roommate from Hogwarts taught me." That being said, she waved her wand around and said,

"Menivocho, Fresoleio!"

"Handy spell you have there!" Albus said dryly, "How long do you think it will take me to turn red?"

"It's hard to say… an hour, two at the most, before you start resembling a lobster. Oh if only I had my camera on me. Hee Hee!"

"Moving on… what room are you staying in the hotel?"

" Um" said Minerva, trying to remember her room number, while noticing that Albus seemed to be 'discreetly,' (or what he would call discreetly, she would call it openly staring at her when he thought she wasn't looking) checking her out, much to her shock.

"Five-hundred-thirty-four A"

"What a small world it is! I just so happen to be in room Five-hundred-thirty-four B!"

"Yes it is a small world! Now come along Albus, you might as well lie down and start tanning; the sooner you get red the sooner it can peel off and be brown."

"Yes Minerva" Albus said as he sat down on his towel and closed his eyes. And then there was silence, until Minerva said,

"Well Albus, we've been out here three hours-"

"THREE HOURS?"

"Yes Albus, I think it's time to go in, and you do in fact look like a well cooked lobster."

"Thank you Minerva, and your sympathy for my cause is overwhelming."

"Any time Albus! Now lets get back, looks like you could use an oatmeal bath."

"My shoulders are starting to itch…"

"Well let's get back then…"

End flashback

"And then we came back and decided to have dinner, after I took that oatmeal bath that Minnie here, suggested." Albus said, gesturing to the headmistress.

"You were SO wupped! I can't even BELIEVE it! You weren't even married yet and you still did everything she said!"

"Sirius, sometimes it's better to just do as your told and not to ask questions." Minerva said, with a feral smile on her face.

"He was still wupped!"

"I am right here m'boy!"

"Are we going to hear more about this tomorrow?" asked Severus.

"No, not tomorrow, Minerva and I have to go to the Ministry tomorrow to talk to Minister Fudge, he seems to think I don't have a Defense against the Dark Arts teacher… quite silly if you ask me!" Albus chuckled

"So you found one then? Who?" Asked Minerva.

"Why Sirius and Remus! Obviously!" Turning to them he said " And I won't take no for and answer Remus so don't even try! I want you both around for various things and I know that both of you want to be closer to Harry so, here is your opportunity; as long as you act somewhat like adults. Yes Sirius, you must start to act you age. Sorry to disappoint you."

"But, But, But…"

"How the Hell are you going to get Fudge to let you hire a werewolf AND an ex- convict?

"The same way I always get Fudge to do what I want, Severus, threaten him with an investigation of all of his dealings and laws signed by or through him. He doesn't want anyone to know that half of the people that he let off of prison charges are some of the worst Death Eaters of Voldemort's inner circle."

"Wow Albus you have some very Slitherin attributes, you know that right?"

"Yes Harry, I know, but if I didn't, I wouldn't have such a great sense of humor!"

"Well Harry, I didn't get to tell you about the Lawrence twins last night," at this both Harry and Ron both turned to glare at Remus,

"What it was late, you all needed to go to sleep!"

"So how about tomorrow, I tell you about Isabella and Amelia?"

"Oh God!" moaned Remus and oddly enough, Severus who said,

"Black, must you be filling his head with your disgusting nighttime escapades?"

And on went their bickering until everyone got up and left for lunch, and to their other engagements.
