With Fudge’s departure, the others all returned to the hospital wing. Dumbledore gave everyone a quick rundown of what had transpired, then started to make plans. Bill immediately left to find and tell Mr. Weasley what had happened, while McGonagall to talk with Hagrid and Madame Maxime. Sirius too left, but not before being forced into a truce with Snape and promising to see Harry soon. Then Snape, and eventually Dumbledore too left, leaving Harry alone with his friends.
