Bboyminn:

Well, mine won't be as fun or funny as others have suggested. 

Also, it's nice that someone asked what I WANT to see rather than what
I predict will happen; they are similar, but not quite the same.

-I am desperate to get the inside details on Apparation, and I
absolutely swear, and demand, that the kids in Harry's year have
Apparation lessons at school. 

-Dobbie vs Kreacher has lot of potential. I really believe that
through Dobbie's efforts the House-Elves will rally to defend the
school and fight Voldemort. I could even envision a network of Elfin
spies.

-It would be nice if Ron would finally GET A CLUE regarding his
feeling toward Hermione. Maybe the return of Viktor Krum would be
enough to spur him to action.

-I want some resolution on Sirius Black's death and the Black Estate.
I don't see that happening until near the end of the book. Possibly
only the ground work will be layed for the complete resolution in the
final book. Of course, part of this requires that Sirius's name be
cleared of the charges for which he was imprisoned.

-Regarding that Black Family Estate, I've often speculated that it
will come down to a fight between Harry and Draco; Harry by right of
Sirius's hand written Will, and Draco by right of being the only
living male who currently has Black blood in his veins. 

-I want Hagrid's name officially cleared, so he can get a new wand,
and become a full-fledged wizard in good standing. I won't go into
details, but in the past I've indicated that I think everything is in
place for this to happen with the exception of the Ministy signing the
documents.

-I want to see Sirius's motorcycle again. I suspect Harry will stumble
across it stored at Hogwarts where it has been all the time. 

-I want the DA Club to continue as an open officially sanctioned
school club. I envision the start of term announcements in which
Dumbledore tells everyone about the Club, and says that anyone who
wants to join should contact Harry. That sort of pushes the situation
on to Harry, which is how most things happen to him.

-I further want the DA Club to be the means by which we discover the
Good Slytherin. 

-I want the details on Godric's Hollow and the aftermath.

-I want Harry and/or Hermione and/or Ron to give Gran Longbottom a
good telling off for the way she treats Neville, along with an account
of his outstanding bravely and loyalty during the Dept of Mysteries
battle. It's high time someone set that woman straight.

-I want to see, although probably not until book 7, Neville's parent
recover at least to the extent that they can function again, so they
can come home, and interact with Neville in a loving way.

-I want what ever is holding Moaning Myrtle to an earthly life to be
resolved so she can move on to the next life and rest in peace; poor
girl just breaks my heart.

-I want Fred and George to make Harry a silent partner in their
business; silent in that Harry has no say, and silent in that they
don't bother to tell Harry until some much much later date. This give
Harry a safe and properous future that doesn't require endless trama
and the rath of various dark wizards. I have a feeling that when this
is over, Harry will have had more than his fill of dangerous
adventure, and will be looking for a new more quiet and safe life.

I want or suspect there is another connection between Harry and
Neville. I've speculated that Harry might have stayed at Neville's
until Dumbledore finished making the arrangements for Baby Harry. 

That's all I can come up with for now.
