    ... anything else. As much as he liked Amelia, and as important as she was to his godfather, he really hadn't spent that much time with her over the last year or so. This was the first time he really saw her as not just an authority figure, but as his godfather's girlfriend. Someone he could turn to like a parent or a guardian. Truth be told, he sort of liked it. Amelia said her farewells before disappearing through the Floo to the Ministry of Magic. Ginny turned to her boyfriend. "You're teaching me the Patronus charm, Harry." The adults all seemed to be pleased with the idea of the kids learning the charm, but Sirius and Remus couldn't help but laugh when Harry just nodded and smiled. "Yes, dear," he replied.

Amelia grit her teeth as she stopped by the other woman's desk. "I've been informed that you've issued an expulsion notice to Harry Potter. I have evidence that will prove that he was acting in self defense."

Before Mafalda could view the memories, Amelia had one more thing to say. "I'm shocked at your lack of procedure here, Mafalda. Time was, when an underaged witch or wizard used magic, an investigation would take place into what spell was used and why, before expulsion notices were issued. Mr. Potter used a Patronus Charm.
