The hospital wing got silent, a batty woman with way too big glasses on, came to her senses. And looked up. "I read in my cards I had to be here today. My talents are needed here, I feel trouble is arriving."

She walked in the room, smelling like a garbage bin of a cheap pub on a Sunday morning, the healers and Aurors awed by the prophecy.

The headmaster was salivating with this new piece of toy, you could see the gears rotating in his mind, what does it mean, is Harry the force of Light? Who is the Dark One? Voldemort? We need to start planning.

I laughed at it: "Of course you are needed, the Aurors send you here, and of course there is trouble, this place is swamped with Aurors and healers they are not on vacation here, even I can tell you this without cards." We have to diffuse this prophecy, or Great Goat God be dammed, the old go.. bastard is going to fuck this one up too.

"And what have you been drinking? There are children here, if you set a bad example, I'll have to bring this up at the next meeting of the school board governors. Maybe even fire you. Can you predict you can keep your job or not? I think I have 5 or six votes on the school board governors. Maybe I can predict your future."

Dumbledore snapped awake "You are not a school governor my boy, and sure have not 5 votes on it, don't speak nonsenses." I cut him off, I can't let him start spouting nonsense, first, that is my job, second, I have to keep them off balance because the slippery g… bastard has too much influence.

"FIRST ALBUS you old sack of bones, I am not, or ever will be YOUR BOY, you sad old fag, and for the record, address me as Lord Slytherin or Lord Gryffindor. You as headmaster should act as an example, not like a puppet master, playing God with our lives. And for the record, as Lord of two founders, I have four seats at the school board, and the seat Malfoy was keeping warm for House Black, I am sure House Potter got one too. It seems you are getting a bit senile, maybe it is time to let your old bones rest a bit. Your retirement is long overdue, you have … what? Maybe a decade to live? How old are you? 120? 140? It is clear things are not working properly upstairs."

"True." Said Madam Bones, somehow she has the monocle back on inspecting the bottles of potions. "The board of governors has 2 seats for every founder, so you have 4 seats. The Black seat was taken by Malfoy, but Mr. Potter you're a minor I do not think you can get on the board, and these are not potions."

"You are wrong on both things Madam Bones. As Lord of 4 Houses, I am emancipated as an adult. And these potions are made by an alchemist. So they don't read as potions. Some students can detect potions, why do you think Albus canceled the course in the first place. So he can be the only alchemist and can dose us up to the gills."

Let them think about this a bit, the healers who were analyzing Sibyl said: "This one is also bound for St Mungo's there is at least 2 weeks work on, a day to get the alcohol and the addiction from it, to begin with," Maybe she is a real Seer, she predicted trouble and she got them. Not sure how her talents are needed, almost everybody knows how to open a bottle, I know some are harder, but still.

Sibyl got shoved through the floo, and Dumbledore was getting anxious he was losing his source of entertainment right in front of his eyes, and there was nothing he could do, Madam Bones has too much pull in the ministry, if he goes for his wand then there is going to be trouble.

The teachers were entering one by one, McGonagall looking worried, Flitwick with a curious expression, Filch went straight to his cat, some students noticed the commotion, and soon there was a whole crowd outside the doors. One by one the teachers were analyzed, and one by one shipped off to St Mungo's
