Chapter 9
Part 1 out of 2 or 3.
"I couldn't believe, he managed eventually"
"It was indeed, a bit of a surprise to me too. I believe Granger was perfect?"
"Yeah, she tried to block her mind and invade my mind at the same time. We are very lucky to have her here."
Kelly jumped up, as Matt and McGonnagal walked in. She had been thinking about many things like Sirius, death eaters, her own life and Voldemort. She tried to put on a smile, but Matt had already seen it.
"So, how did it go with Potter?" McGonnagal's voice sounded concerned.
"Well, let's say Severus was right, Minerva. I think he doesn't fully understand the need for it. What about you? I heard you talking about miss Granger, but mister Weasley?"
"As usually, thinking about food. I was thinking about making all our lessons revolve around food, but it's unethical if you ask me. But he managed well eventually. He kept me away from his mind for two minutes, before he cracked." McGonnagal's voice reflected proudness.
"Very good. But two minutes isn't enough, when he comes face to face with the dark lord." Kelly started to walk back and forth "But well, thank you Minerva, you better get some sleep now, I can hardly imagine how hard it could've been to work with Mr. Weasley's appetite."
Matt laughed "Yeah, Minerva, get some sleep. I need to talk to my sister anyway."
As McGonnagal left, Matt turned to Kelly "Now, you're gonna tell me, or I'll find it out eventually."
"First, you're going to have to show me if you have improved on turning into an animagus."
Matt let out a sigh, she closed her eyes and slowly started to transform. In a matter of minutes, she was a black panther with sparkling fur.
"You're still not fast enough! You need to do it in less then a minute!"
"Yeah, yeah, I'm trying here. Now, tell me, what did you see." Matt's face had a glow, which made her look like she was 5 years old and getting her very first christmas present.
"There was actually nothing. I saw them laughing together, Sirius offering Harry a home, him falling through the arch and some glimpses of the meetings of the Order of Phoenix. I saw his nightmares about Voldemort and the scenes, when he had faced him. Not much."
"Bomber. I hoped there was something depressive." Matt laughed.
"Matt, dearest. You have to start taking things seriously. We don't have much time and you'll have to be ready to take over. You know that they don't know you exist. And it's better we keep it that way." Kelly sounded tired.
I still don't understand, why you have to go, but well who am I to you anyway." Matt sounded offended.
"It's not like that, sis and you know it" Kelly took her sister into a hug and looked out of the window, into the rain "Come what may!"
