Ivy calmly looked at her best friend, Amelia Bones, and frowned in thought about what she just learned. Amelia’s niece, Susan was supposed to write a letter to her about how her year was going. Aside from being a letter about the first weeks of the year at Hogwarts, Susan was Amelia’s eyes and ears inside the school. That letter never came. Amelia also showed Ivy the most recent copy of the Daily Prophet that contained a list of “educational decrees” by something by a “high inquisitor”.
Ivy read through the list wth increasing anger. Apparently, this “high inquisitor” had essentially seized control of the DMLE from Amelia, including all the aurors. Except one. Nymphadora Tonks was currently wandering around Beauxbatons, tripping over everything. Alastor Moody had been staying at Beauxbatons on Ivy’s invitation for a much needed vacation. He was currently enjoying the spa. Amelia looked at Ivy and asked the all important question, “What can we do? That…. woman has taken over the DMLE, and had almost all the aurors brought to Hogwarts to help “supervise the students”. Ivy, we both know that’s a load of rubbish, unfortunately, I can’t do anything. Susan’s basically a hostage.” Here, Amelia sat down in a nearby chair and began to cry.
Ivy went and consoled her friend. She thought of what could be done about this literal mess. Ivy hugged Amelia and walked her to a suite that Ivy had set aside for her when Amelia visited. Ivy walked around Beauxbatons and thought about what to do. Even so, Ivy knew that she wouldn’t be able to take on the entire auror force at the moment. Her heart wouldn’t allow it. Ivy suddenly got an idea, she couldn’t handle this herself, but, she knew someone who would. Ivy had some calls to make and letters to send.
It was roughly three days later when the doors to the Great Hall of Hogwarts burst open and a great many commando droids ran in and began to engage the aurors in combat. That lasted all of five minutes when the aurors started to fall due to being slashed by vibroblades. It was into this carnage that a wheezing and coughing cyborg walked. The cyborg walked up to one Delores Umbridge and promptly grabbed her by the collar of her garishly pink outfit. The cyborg was suddenly seized by a fit of coughing. It looked at Umbridge with its almost reptilian eyes and said two words that sent a chill down her spine.
“Hello There…”.
