Fan Fiction ❯ Getting to know you! ❯ Penesive accidents ( Chapter 1 )
[ A - All Readers ]
Harry looked around Dumbledore's office, waiting for the man to get back from what ever business he was on.
It was only three days until his graduation and he'd been spending his time relaxing with his friends for the last time before leaving Hogwarts. Only now it seemed that he wouldn't be leaving Hogwarts, not yet anyway.
10 minutes ago he'd received a message from Dumbledore asking to see him in his office about the currently empty position of DADA post and if he knew what he was doing after graduation. It would be a little weird but Harry *really* hoped he got the job.
He sighed and looked around the room again. Catching sight of Dumbledore's penesive on the side he pushed his chair back and wondered over to look at it, knocking a marble sized remembrall off the table as he did so. Deciding that Dumbledore probably wouldn't be back for a while, he moved it from its table and began carrying it back to the headmaster's desk.
As he was walking back to the desk, Harry looked down into the smoky swirling memories in the penesive and no longer concentrating on where he was going, failed to notice the small clear ball lying on the plush carpet where it had landed when he had knocked it.
In an instant, Harry's foot collided with the remembrall and flew out beneath him as the smooth glass surface rolled the ball out from under his foot. The penesive was flung up into the air and the 17 year old boy who lived landed with a thump on his back, green eyes opening blearily just in time to see the bowl of memories falling quickly towards his head.
There was a smash and the penesive crashed to the ground, landing face down on Harry's head and dragging the bespectacled teenager into a one of Albus Dumbledore's memory.
In any normal situation this wouldn't have been so bad, Harry could have just waited until the memory was over to get out of the penesive, however like anything to do with the famous Harry Potter, this wasn't a normal situation and when the penesive hit ground, it broke. And not just a crack sort of break either, it shattered. Thousands of shards of penesive were thrown across the room and memories swirling wildly, franticly, spread out across the floor like a layer of fog. And where the black haired boy had fallen with the penesive of his headmasters memories then there was nothing there.

Albus Dumbledore stood on the stairs taking his up to his office, humming slightly to himself and sucking a lemon drop. Harry should be there by now and he was very much so hopping that the Gryffindor boy would accept the post of DADA professor.
Pushing the door open he was utterly surprised to see a thin layer of mist covering the ground and an absence of Harry Potters. Looking around he noticed a small shard of... *something* by his foot.
Leaning down he picked it up and pushing his half moon spectacles up on to her nose he peered at it curiously, after a moment recognising it as a piece of his penesive. He looked back and the strange fog and the pieces slipped into place.
"Oh bugger."
