"What is it?" Ginny asked, positively alarmed by Remus's expression.

    "The four of us are urgently required at the Headmaster's office." Remus said quietly. "Dumbledore usually doesn't summon students at his office, if it isn't an emergency or something is seriously wrong."

    "Four of us- you mean me, Padfoot, you and Wormtail right?" Asked James. Remus shook his head. "I mean me, you, Padfoot and Silverfur. Wormtail isn't mentioned." Ginny was surprised as this.

    "Jeez, what did we do now?" Sirius asked, worried. "And what CAN we possibly do to summon us to Headmaster's office?"

   "No idea." Said James. "Do any of you remember what we did last night after the Firewhiskey?"

    "We waited till after the curfew in the passage." Remus said rubbing his head. "I told you we shouldn't drink to much."

    "Let's go, shall we?" Ginny said quickly, not wishing to endure a fight. Together, they went through the potrait hole and walked towards the Headmaster's office, deep in discussion about the apparent reason of the summon.

    They stood in front of the Gargoyle when Remus stated, "We don't know the password." Ginny cautiously knocked. The gargoyle moved away and they were all greeted by the site of Professor McGonagall.

    For one second, Ginny pondered whether or not to about turn, and run, and run.... for her dear life.

    Professor McGonagall wasn't in her usual composed self. She was wearing her usual emerald green robes, but they were all dusty. The usual tight bun on her head was loosened, her hair sticking out in all directions. She was all disheveled and dusty, resembling a female scare crow; she looked as if she had just had a wrestling match with a full grown mountain troll. The glare on her eyes was positively murderous.

    Ginny, Remus and James winced at the intensity of her glare. Only Sirius had a little courage left, enough to give the fuming Professor a nervous smirk and say, "You look sexy, Minnie."

    "You little group of...." Professor McGonagall was silenced by Dumbledore, who had appeared in the doorway, putting a hand on McGonagall's shoulder. "Let's go inside, Minerva." Dumbledore looked sullen, but maybe Ginny was imagining things, when she thought she heard a hint of amusement in his voice.

    "Mr Potter, Mr Black, Mr Lupin and Ms Summers, I am sure you are thinking why how've been summoned so early." The four of them nodded. Ginny thought she almost saw steam coming out of Professor McGonagall's ears.

    "Well, in short, four of you were in an utterly drunk state previous night. So I assume you don't remember anything. If it wasn't of Mr Filch an hour ago, you would've been getting much worse punishment than what you are getting now. You four will have to serve a months detention with Minerva."

    "ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING BEHAVIOR FROM STUDENTS OF MY OWN HOUSE! I AM TOTALLY, UTTERLY DISAPPOINTED IN ALL OF YOU!" Professor McGonagall burst out. Ginny braced herself to hear a long rant and exactly what they had done. This is going to be long.

        ^___________^

    The four of them came out of the headmaster's office half an hour later. After making sure they were at safe distance, Sirius suddenly started to laugh uncontrollably, which started of others as well.

    "I ... told ... you ... so..." Remus gasped for air while laughing, tears in his eyes, "It isn't a good idea ... to get drunk ... on firewhiskey ..."

    "Come on, Moony!" Said James, choking on air. "You can't deny it was funny!"

    "I can't believe we actually did that..." said Ginny laughing. "We actually locked up Professor McGonagall in the broom closet! That too in the enchanted one!"

    "Oh cut it out..." Sirius said between his bark-like laughs. "We didn't actually suggest her to go strutting about the corridors and classrooms as a cat!"

    "We might've thought it was Mrs Norris ..." James added.

    "Until the real Mrs Norris found us and reported to Filch." Said Ginny.

    "Maybe Professor McGonagall should be grateful to that filthy cat for once." Said Sirius.

    "Yes." Said Remus. "Otherwise who knows how many more hours Professor McGonagall would've been stuck in the bloody broom cupboard." This set them off again and soon, there was another round of laughter.

    "We should really stop laughing our sorting hats off..." commented James.

    "You know, we should also give some thought about the fact that we just changed the weather of the Great Hall..."

    "Yeah. Presenting- severe rain with occational snowfall!" Sirius announced dramatically. Remus was unable to add any comment to this behaviour, he just kept choking and laughing.

    Ginny also kept laughing. Atleast when she went back to her own time, she would have quite some epic memories... top of the list would be this occation... when she locked up Professor McGonagall in the enchanted broom cupboard AND changed the weather of the Great Hall.
