"I'm really sorry -- I had to go out for something important --"

"Well, the password changed at midnight, so you'll just have to sleep in

the corridor, won't you?"

"You're joking!" said Harry. "Why did it have to change at midnight?"

"That's the way it is," said the Fat Lady. "If you're angry, go and take it up

with the headmaster, he's the one who's tightened security."

"Fantastic," said Harry bitterly, looking around at the hard floor. "Really

brilliant. Yeah, I would go and take it up with Dumbledore if he was here,

because he's the one who wanted me to --"

"He is here," said a voice behind Harry. "Professor Dumbledore returned

to the school an hour ago."

Nearly Headless Nick was gliding toward Harry, his head wob-bling as

usual upon his ruff.

"I had it from the Bloody Baron, who saw him arrive," said Nick. "He

appeared, according to the Baron, to be in good spirits, though a little tired,

of course."

"Where is he?" said Harry, his heart leaping,"

"Oh, groaning and clanking up on the Astronomy Tower, it's a, favorite

pastime of his --"

"Not the Bloody Baron -- Dumbledore!"

"Oh -- in his office," said Nick. "I believe, from what the Baron said, that

he had business to attend to before turning in --"

"Yeah, he has," said Harry, excitement blazing in his chest at the prospect

of telling Dumbledore he had secured the memory. He wheeled about and

sprinted off again, ignoring the Fat Lady who was calling after him.

"Come back! All right, I lied! I was annoyed you woke me up! The

password's still 'tapeworm'!"

But Harry was already hurtling back along the corridor and within

minutes, he was saying "toffee eclairs" to Dumbledore's gar-goyle, which

leapt aside, permitting Harry entrance onto the spiral staircase.
