Lily followed a lady who was older, and taller then Nodyl, with similar hair in a tight bun. They walked in silence for several minutes before arriving at their final destination. A single statue of a gargoyle stood before the two people.

"Piskywhisky," mumbled McGonagall and the statue jumped aside, leaving her enough space to lead her young student through.

At the top of the staircase, was a door, which McGonagall didn't hesitate in opening. She walked behind the desk and stood, gesturing toward the seat opposite her to Lily.

Lily took a seat, and after a moment asked, "What's going on, Professor?"

A/N: Another cliffy. I saved the authors note for the end. I'm glad you guys liked chapter 28, I loved all the reviews. Keep the chapter title suggestions coming and I'll use as many as I can. Pinky Promise. Tell me what you think. The story will pick up from now on. See you Monday!
