The words "I hope to see you soon!" were barely out of James's mouth when he found himself six feet apart from Devon, who had eagerly trotted up to him and would've ran straight up to him completely if the magic keeping people at least six feet apart from each other hadn't been intact.

Devon still went out of his way to be first in anything whenever he could, and he was eager to try some foreign candy.

"So, "James, " said Devon eagerly, "Are your foreign candies magical or muggle?"

"Mostly magical, " smiled James.

"So, " said Devon eagerly, "I'd like to try some foreign chocolates."

"So, " grinned James, "There's a magical chocolate from Croatia that will leave the taste of chocolate in your mouth for an hour after you swallow it. The chocolate is shaped like simple square and is called Croatia's constant chocolate. One pack consists of eight squares and will cost you two galleons!"

"It's a deal, " said Devon as he tossed James two galleons as James tossed him a box of Croatia's constant chocolates. The box was square in shape and white in color and had the words Croatia's Constant Chocolates written across the top in simple chocolate colored manuscript.

Opening the box and popping one of the square chocolates into his mouth l, Devon shouted "AMAZING!"

James grinned.

"This chocolate is rich, intense, and flavorful, " beamed Devon! "I can still taste it fully after swallowing. The claim must be true. Awesome!"

At that precise nanosecond, Professor McGonagall grabbed the purple megaphone and said very clearly, "As you all know, I'm not as young as I once was. Moreover, I have held the post of Hogwarts Headmistress for over two decades now. I would like to enjoy some not so busy and not so intense days in the later years of my life. I also believe that the time for a change at the top at Hogwarts. Hogwarts needs someone younger and more energetic to lead the way. It is with mixed feelings but peacefulness about the decision that I hereby announce that my last day as Hogwarts Headmistress shall be August 31st, 2021."

People exchanged stunned looks as Professor McGonagall continued, "Hogwarts has been a part of life since I was eleven and I'm proud to have served the school for many decades as a student, a teacher, a head of house, and a headmistress. I will continue to live at Hogwarts but it's time younger and more energetic took over leading the school. It is therefore my great pleasure to announce that on September 1st, 20021, Jill Kirke will become the new headmistress of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Jill Kirke, please come up here.

Jill slowly walked her way up to where McGonagall was standing and took the megaphone from her.

"First, " said Jill sincerely, "I would like to thank Professor McGonagall for offering me the opportunity to succeed her as headmistress of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. I hope to bring fresh energy and ideas to the school, and I look forward to working with all returning students as your headmistress starting with the fall 2021 semester. See you around!"

Jill handed the megaphone back to McGonagall, who said, "Go celebrate your big win, Gryffindor!"

Even being in Ravenclaw, Jill had to admire McGonagall's passion for her house.

Devon, James, Hugo, Ainsley, Stephanie, Samantha, and Lily walked back to Gryffindor Tower together feeling elated at their win, excited about the candy fundraiser, stunned by the bombshell, and feeling confident in their chances for the Quidditch Cup.
