Despite what Minerva had learned about her past, she still insisted upon going back to work three weeks before she was scheduled to. As she walked into the pub one morning with Arthur in her arms, Jemma Macroon rushed over toward her.
"Oh, Minerva! He's so darling." Jemma said, she loved children, which was exactly why she was training to be a teacher in a muggle school.
Just as Minerva opened her mouth to thank Jemma, Master Macroon walked over to the two ladies standing there. "Mudblood you're back early! And whats this? You gave birth to a baby. When you said personal leave I didn't figure you would ever have been pregnant."
"Actually, yes I did. And as I'm sure you know very well, I am not a muggle born. You know, almost as well as I do that I, Minerva McGonagall Weasley, am from a pureblooded family. One which you helped to destroy."
"How in the bloody world did you find that out?" He yelled back at her, as Minerva handed Arthur carefully to Jemma, so that in case Andrew Macroon, did anything to harm her, Arthur would be fine.
"I have my ways. You can not honestly tell me that you never thought I would find out about what really happened."
"I'll bet it was your little boy friend, whats his name, Weaslebe or something of the sort."
"It's Weasley! And he's not just my boy friend. He's my husband!" Minerva said raising her voice for the first time since the two began the argument.
Master Macroon hit her hard on the face. Which caused Minerva to loose her cat like balance, and fall over one of the tables. "You've--" Macroon looked stunned as a tabby cat took off running up the stairs.
"Mummy Cat!" Squealed the now 8 month baby from Jemma's arms.
As soon as Andrew heard that, he went after Minerva's cat form. He had evidently forgotten about her skills in Transfiguration, which was the exact reason he had been ordered that she stay alive.
Minerva had already managed to get herself into none other then Albus Dumbledore's room. She couldn't express the thankfulness she felt that his door had been slightly ajar when she was looking for someplace to hide. Also that she could hear his voice, meaning that if Master Macroon burst into the room it would not wake the one person, other then James, that had began to be a friend to Minerva.
Unbeknown as to how Jemma managed to reach the upstairs hallway so quickly with a baby in her arms. But all that mattered to her was the fact she had beaten her brother. She had even got to see what room it was that the tabby cat had gone into. The tabby being none other then Minerva herself. Walking swiftly over to room 802, Jemma repositioned Arthur on her hip and knocked on the door.
Albus had seen the cat run in, but had not payed any attention to it at all. Hearing the knocking coming from his door he stood up and answered it.
"Hello Sir. Sorry to bother you but by chance, is there a tabby cat hiding out in here? I need to talk-- er well..."
"You must be Jemma Macroon. Minerva's friend, correct?"
"Uhm, well yeah actually." She stammered. Stunned at the fact that this man had known her name.
"Wonderful, I'm Albus Dumbledore. Minerva ran in about a minute ago. Come on in." Dumbledore said moving aside so she could enter.
Jemma nodded and stepped in. Arthur still in her arms. He was the first to actually spot his mother hiding in a corner by the book shelf and a chair.
"Mummy Kitty!" He cried and no sooner her Jemma sat him down then he started tottering toward his mother. Minerva purred and returned to her human state, as she scooped up the now giggling son of hers.
"I'm so getting fired for this..."
"Min, don't you dare worry about it. James makes more then enough money to support a small family."
"It's not that, Jemma. I need something to do, especially in 11 years from now when..."
Jemma rolled her eyes. "Come off it. You know James would have you with him at the Ministry if the entire wizarding world didn't either think you where dead or that you where a muggle born. Even though we know different, and that you are as pureblooded as purebloods can get."
Minerva who was about to speak suddenly saw that Andrew Macroon had burst into the room. "MCGONAGALL!" He screamed causing Minerva to jump due to being startled.
"It's Weasley now." She snapped back. Minerva had what most called a true Scottish temper.
"Oh," Macroon said with a rather pleased look on his face. "So you did marry that James." He finished seeing Minerva nod her head, a fiery look in her eyes. "Well in that case," Andrew said smirking at her...
