Fawkes looked amused; the human was an unending source of entertainment for the phoenix. He had chosen to accompany the human decades ago because he was fighting for something he believed in, and frankly, Fawkes had wanted a different experience. But only later did he realise that Albus was nothing like what he portrayed himself to be. The man wasn't really evil but just didn't care about anyone but himself. He always believed that he was acting in the best interests of others, but frankly, his decisions cost more lives that Albus would care to admit. Fawkes could have left Albus anytime, but he knew that Hadrian Potter had a special destiny ahead of him. All the magical creatures knew that change was imminent; magic was going to be brought back to the forefront again, with Hadrian Potter leading it. The non-magical creatures sensed that something was going to happen as well that would benefit them. The phoenix wanted to be close to the Lord of Lightning in case the boy needed help. Besides, it was fun watching the stupid human curse and destroy his office every time the boy did something that went against Albus's plans. Ah, what a vacation. The sorting hat too chucked.
