I don't think they have much a choice – but who would that be? Us? The employees of the ministry? Or someone higher up... the Minister of Magic?” He furrowed his brow – his brain was really not functioning properly. “I suppose we’ll just have to wait for this one to wake up and see what happens when given orders.” He hated this. He disagreed with the slavery of house elves in the strongest terms – but they had gone too far taking those kids. And if this is what it took to get them back, then so be it. "If they choose to disobey an order, they punish themselves for it."

Nathan looked over at the other confused looking woman. She seemed irritated by his and Lola’s presence here. He stood there, covered in mud and sweat, looking extremely bedraggled after being soaked to the bone in an indoor thunder storm, having no success getting security to help. He took a deep breath before answering, otherwise he may very well snap. “The ministry house elves are reeking havoc within the ministry. Go and take a look at level eight - that will answer your question, love.” He said, managing to keep his calm. “They have taken some children captive. Muggle children.” Who somehow managed to get into the ministry through (the lack of) security. “An elf rebellion against... us.”

Lola continued to pace back and forth. They were wasting valuable time. If they could just prevent the elf from apparating, they could properly interrogate him. "We're wasting time, clearly the only thing we can do at the moment is knock the little buggers out." She was becoming increasingly angered by the rebellion. She never minded elf rights because most elves loved serving. She thought there needed to be some sort of wizard oversight committee to prevent abuse and free elves who wanted it. Clearly she must have been mistaken, because now there was a full scale elf rebellion right within the Ministry.

"What do you think, Nathan? Think we should move on and find the children?" She hated feeling so helpless. The creature probably didn't know about the missing children, it was just another Ministry elf, not one she had seen with the kids. "I think we need to move on, this is going nowhere," she said impatiently, pulling out her now muddy pink headband. She put it through her hair to keep it out of her eyes. She must get it cut, but now wasn't the time to think of such trivial matters.
