... conversation we had last month. You must see reason." Fudge almost turned purple. "He is not back!" he growled, before turning around and storming out of the office, Umbridge following behind. Albus sighed, turning back to the two women left. He nodded. "I am glad to see justice upheld. I thank you, Mafalda, Amelia." With a nod in their direction, he also left. Amelia said her goodbyes and returned to McGonagall Castle to give them all the good news. XXX Amelia was somehow not surprised to find that Mrs. Weasley had joined the group, and she wasted no time in telling them what had transpired. "You've been cleared, Harry." They all breathed sighs of relief, before Minerva pressed for more details. Amelia took a seat next to Sirius, and explained exactly what had happened, including Fudge and Dumbledore's presence.

But I think he would see a hearing in front of the Minister as an opportunity. If he were to get Harry cleared of the charges, it might make Harry feel more indebted to him." Minerva let out a hiss as she considered that idea. It actually sounded rather plausible, and she hated that. Albus Dumbledore had fallen so far down in her eyes, but as she looked at the young man sitting next to his girlfriend, she knew that she didn't regret having her eyes opened in such a harsh manner. She loved her new life. There hadn't been children running around the Castle since her brother and his family had been killed, and she loved hearing the sounds of a younger generation echo off the walls once more. The adults spent a few more minutes discussing the turn of events, before Mrs. Weasley left with Ginny, but not before the younger girl gave Harry a rather intense goodbye kiss. Even Molly had to smile at the pair, seeing how much her daughter cared for her boyfriend. Harry went up to bed after Ginny left, and the remaining adults once more settled in to talk, discussing what Dumbledore's motives may ...
