She was gifted, very gifted, in working with Dragon’s and would with no doubt be a massive asset when working with them. Although, disrespect was one thing he had trouble swallowing. ”Don’t worry about it miss, I wasn’t planning on it.” he said with a venomous hint to his tone in response to her telling him to ‘scratch her name off the list’. Then there was the boasting, she even went on to label her self a bigger pain in the butt than the dragons… That might just hold true. “Let’s not get too cocky now.” He said with a wink to his new, difficult, employee. “And let’s hope you earn every knut of your paycheck. If not, then me and you will be having some talks in my office, and I know how much you’d enjoy that.” Teal said, aggravated as he took the final swig from his mug. “As for the Leaky Cauldron, I care either. Don’t really remember much of that night anyways.” Teal admitted, and smiled to himself inwardly but kept the malevolent start on his face.

Teal scowled as that girl leaned towards him, What kind of deranged psycho acted liked this to their boss, on the first day of work? Teal didn’t cower backwards, not a chance. Instead he leaned forward, just less than a foot away from her face. She explained that she was in a great mood and Teal took a deep breath, exhaling out of his nose. “Great to hear Ms. Mathias, but I’m not here to talk about what mood your in.” he said, pulling out a notebook that had a lot of information on the upcoming convention. He needed to talk about all of it with his employee’s.

Teal grinned as Roxie looked clearly appalled by her new Ministry badge. She went on how about how it was somehow a tracker, and Teal merely furrowed his brow and show his head. “Yeah, whatever you say.” Bloody psycho.




Teal held his now empty coffee mug and scowled, a long day without the coffee was never good. Holding his breath, he watched as Mr. Griffin introduced himself to the heathen. Please be decent, professional at the very very least, Teal ran over in his mind. No of course not, Roxie’s comment was way out of line; this girls a mess. And right as Teal opened his mouth to snap at her Alex intervened himself. His retort was just as rude and Teal looked to Ms. Athlon wondering what the poor woman’s reaction was at the moment. Teal was about to scream at the top of his lungs at both of them when there was yet another person entering the room. He breathed, very deeply as he wanted this day to end more than anything he could think of. He rubbed his eye’s very quickly before he matched face with file, as yes the new member of the Pest Advisory Board. The man stuck out a hand and actually introduced himself in a civilized way. Thank GOD. Teal shook the man’s hand firmly, his dark blue eye’s seeping into his emerald ones. “Pleasure to have you here.” Teal said with a blank nod, the man had to understand that Teal was having a bad day by the mere expression on his face. “Teal Andrus.” he said returning the introduction as he shuffled a few papers on his desk.





Teal watched on as they continued to argue and once Roxie had nearly finished his final sentence he absolutely exploded. He slammed his coffee mug down on his desk and felt it break into a few different pieces. “STOP!.” He yelled across the small, yet packed room to Ms. Mathias who was attempting to exit. “This isn’t Hogwarts, children, you are working with DRAGONS.” He said, glaring at both Roxie and Alex, but mainly Roxie. “If you two really want to duke it out, do it outside of work. Not here. IS THAT UNDERSTOOD.” He said, LOUD and clear.

Teal took a long deep breath reached over to his desk and picked up a certain notebook. He tried to clear his sudden outburst from his mind but couldn’t. That was probably do to a couple of things… One being his heavy workload of late. The main reason being that his son was coming to live with him tomorrow, his son that he hadn’t spoken to once. The stress was far too much for him to handle. Tucking the notebook under his arm, Teal headed for the door. He stopped at it and looked back. “Ms. Mathias and Mr. Griffin, if you could please follow me I will show you to your offices. Plus, there are important matters that we need to discuss that actually involve the things you applied for.” he said with a bitter bite to his tone.

Teal looked back to Jakob and Raven with a sympathetic smile. “I apologize, I am going to have to get back to both of you.” he said, scratching his temple. “Ms. Athlon, if you could just momentarily return to the Spirit Division offices, I will have Vlad explain everything to you that I was going to.” He said with a weak smile, making a mental note to memo Vlad about it ASAP. “And Jakob, the Pest Advisory Board Offices are just down the hall to the left. Can’t miss it, and I’ll be there to settle you in after I am finishing in Dragon Restraint.” he said with another quick look to his broken coffee mug. “And if you don’t mind, could you please repair that mug?” he asked with a small, guilty smile.

Turning back to Alex and Roxie, Teal gave them a short sigh. “Alright then, follow me.” he said, and headed out the door on his way to the Dragon Research and Restraint Bureau.
