Tuesday 3rd September 1956

Minerva McGonagall knocked on the classroom door and waited for a reply.

"Come in." Came the man's voice and Minerva pushed the door open slowly.

The man turned around and greeted Minerva with a smile.

"Professor Dumbledore? I'm Minerva McGonagall, the new professor for Transfiguration."

Minerva held a hand out for the professor to shake and Dumbledore stepped forward, taking her hand in both of his.

"Albus, please." Professor Dumbledore replied, stepping back and perching on the edge of his desk. "McGonagall, that sounds familiar. We've had a McGonagall at Hogwarts before. She's retired now but ..."

"That would be my aunt, Alicia." Minerva smiled politely. "However, I was a student here once as well."

The professor's face lit up and he smiled brightly at her, causing Minerva to blush.

"Well, I was going to show you around the school but it seems there's no need. I'm sure you'll be a welcome addition to our school, Minerva."

"I wouldn't mind getting re-acquainted with the school, if you would like to take a walk, Albus." Minerva suggested hopefully.

Albus smiled, immediately sliding off his desk and walking over to the other professor.

"After you, Minerva." He replied, holding the door open for Minerva.
