She took a breath as she stepped into the room. “Hello, Re ---Minister Taylor.” She caught herself at the last minute. Everyone was still getting used to the new Minister, and calling her by her official title. “I’ve been meaning to stop in personally and congratulate you,” she said. “But sadly, this is more than just a social call. Just a little while ago I received an owl from Hogwarts, and it contained most disturbing news. I know your time is valuable, so let me summarize this for you.

Just a little while ago, there was a general assembly held at Hogwarts to discuss the topic of lycantrophy. Of course, the Magical Creatures Department already knows that Professor Alessia Lupa, Ancient Runes professor, suffers from the disease, but has been under control for years and was thought not to be a danger to anyone. Well, as part of the general assembly, it seems a decision was made to demonstrate wolfsbane on Professor Lupa, and something went terribly wrong.” Samantha shook her head for effect. “Professor Lupa transformed and became quite aggressive, actually breaking the enchanted cage she was apparently being housed in for the purpose of the demonstration and attempting to attack a few students. But someone stopped her. That person was Headmaster Bontecou, and both are now at St. Mungo’s.” Samantha shuddered. She didn’t know how either of them were doing, and she feared the repercussions were going to be great. What if the Headmaster had been infected with lycantrophy?

“You can see why we were so concerned about seeing you so quickly with this,” Samantha summed up. “My Division Head, Jake, actually received a first hand letter from his niece, with a full and detailed account of the incident. Jake, do you have anything you’d like to add?”

Following Samantha into the Minister's office, he wasn't surprised to see that it was under construction. He had never been in here before when Cooper was Minister but from the remnants of what his office had been, he could tell at once that it wasn't the style he would have picked for Reagan.

Right. Werewolf. Attack. Headmaster. FOCUS! Listening as Samantha told Reagan - er, he should probably call her Minister Taylor now - he fiddled with the letter inside his pocket, already deciding to show it to the Minister. However Rachel may hate him, his logic told him that it was probably for the best.

"Erm, no, I think you've basically covered everything - but here you go, Minister. That's the letter that my niece sent me and it explains everything in a bit more detail. Excuse the handwriting, she was in a hurry," he explained and handed Rachel's slightly crumpled piece of parchment to ~~Rea~~ Minister Taylor, waiting to see what her verdict would be.

BUT, when she took the potion, it was obvious that something was wrong. She made a face and it looked like she wanted to say something to the Headmaster but then she began transforming and her words were cut short.

I won't go into great detail because I don't have time, but point is: the potion didn't work, she transformed into a fully fledged dangerous werewolf and broke out of her cage when all hell broke loose. Students were scared stiff and all the teachers, especially Professor Morgan, looked shocked beyond compare. Well, almost but there's no time to explain now.

Professor Lupa, or the werewolf, whatever, began lashing out at people and the headmaster did the first thing that came to his head - HE WALKED RIGHT INTO HER PATH SO THAT THE STUDENTS WOULD HAVE MORE TIME TO FLEE! Jake, it was the bravest thing I had EVER seen someone do. EVER.

Last thing I saw before ushering the Ravenclaws back up to the tower was him lying in a pool of blood, the werewolf running after bunnies and all the teachers - again, no time - with their wands out.

SCARY, huh?
Love ya
Rachel
