Chapter 16:
"I refuse to believe that!" Harry replied, before his warning wards gave a twinge. Pulling out the map Harry saw McGonagall walking toward the office. With a smile Harry tucked it away and faced the portrait of Albus for the last time. "It seems our time together has come to an end, so I will just say this: I cannot wait to see you again, professor."
With that Harry turned and made his way to the door, ignoring Dumbledore's cries and threats and Phineas' laughs.
Harry had to let out a small chuckle as he heard Black shout, "please come and visit us when you return boy, I simply cannot wait to see who you become,"
Exiting the office in time, Harry caught McGonagall just as she turned the corner.
"Mr. Potter, what are you doing here?" she asked.
Harry schooled his features and smiled at her. "I came to talk to you actually, professor," he said.
"Well then, why don't we take this up to Albus' office?" she asked.
"No," Harry said quickly. "I mean, I would like to see the progress that's been made fixing the damage, if that's alright with you."
McGonagall nodded after looking at Harry with surprise at his quick rejection. "That's fine with me, Mr. Potter," she said, leading the way away from the office.
