Chapter 13 The Headmistress's office
After making sure all students except patrol perfects were in their common rooms, Hermione found herself exhausted and not looking forward to her meeting with the new headmistress. She stifled a yawn and met Malfoy hurrying toward the Gargoyle.
"What was the glare for!" He snapped.
"What was the big angry show for!" She replied. "You may have almost every girl in this school under your spell but I am not falling for it! Go love a girl who will appreciate your nastiness!" Snapped Hermione. Malfoy seemed lost for words for a moment. "Cats!" Said Hermione angrily and ran up the steps and knocked on the door.
"Hermione!" Said Malfoy running up the steps as she closed the door.
sos...
Harry went straight to the Headmistress's office and muttered "Cats!" and the gargoyle sprang to life. He dashed up the stairs and knocked on the door.
"Come in!" Professor McGonagall said calmly from behind the door.
Harry opened the door slowly, preparing himself mentally for a change... But there was no change except for a new Headmaster portrait of Dumbledore and the smiling and slightly worried new Headmistress.
"Harry... I only have a brief time to explain this but you will continue your private lessons." Started McGonagall. She stopped to glance at Harry's surprised face. "I will explain how I know later... oh sorry, where are my manners? Sit down!" She continued gesturing toward the chair. "Lemon Drop? ... No ... well lets get down to business. You see Harry, Professor Dumbledore.." She stopped as tears filled her eyes and Harry's started to get cloudy from trying to force back tears.
"Yes," Harry choked.
"He has left you in his will!" Gasped Headmistress. "He left me everything ... all the information, and memories as well as some he had never entered or shown you ... the prophecy...We will continue lessons and I can help you finish those Horcruxs." Finished Headmistress.
Harry stared at his teacher and Headmistress.
"What I need you to do for me is help others be ready to face ..." She stopped to shudder. "Him." She finished.
Harry stared in disbelief as he studied the will.
"I...I will..." Started Harry.
There was a knock on the door.
"Come in!" Said Headmistress, snatching and stuffing the will into the desk drawer.
"Not a word to this to anyone but Ron ,Hermione, and Ginny understood?" Whispered McGonagall.
Harry nodded his head 'yes' as Hermione opened the door and shut it quickly as if someone was after her.
SOS!
