You can quote, disagree with, glorify or vilify me But about the only thing you can't do is ignore me
Sirius looked furious.
'That... That...' he stammered.
'Hag? Cow?' offered Sarah. Sirius shook his head.
'I can't think of a word.' he said. He looked his daughter straight in the eye. 'Does Dumbledore know about this?' he asked. Sarah shook her head.
'He's got enough on with the Ministry. I'll take the old hag.' she said. Sirius looked at her, and she knew he was worried about her. 'I'm fine.' she said, although inside she wanted to cry and sob on her dad's shoulder. Still, 13 years in that hell-hole of an Orphanage had made her tough. She knew how to keep in the tears.
'You know Sarah, I don't think you are okay.' said Sirius. Sarah looked at her father's face. 'A father know's everything about his daughter.' he said, in response to her look. Sarah looked at her watch.
'I got to go. I don't fancy Filch raving on for about ten years of tardiness and rules.' said Sarah. Sirius gave her one last hug as she set off back to the castle. That night, she trudged along to the office. She saw the familiar black quill.
'Same as before Miss Black.' said Umbridge. Something snapped. Sarah picked up the quill and broke it and dropped it.
'No Miss. I will not stand your torture any longer.' said Sarah. Umbridge looked at her. Then a smile spread over her face.
'Congratulations Miss Black. You are now a member of the Inquisitorial Squad.' she said.
'I don't care about... WarpedDefenseAgainstTheDarkArtsTeacher say What?' said Sarah, shocked.
'You are a Member of the Inquisitorial Squad. You can dock points and give points, and have all the powers of a prefect, including use of the Prefect Bathroom.' said Umbridge, pinning a small silver medal to Sarah's chest. Sarah blinked.
'I needed someone who can stand up for themselves. The other's are aright, but they are not as confident.' said Umbridge.
'I... I...' stammered Sarah.
'Your Detention's are finished. Goodbye Miss Black.' said Umbridge as Sarah walked out. She bumped into Draco near the HourGlasses.
'Oi! Watch it Black! 10 points from Gryfindor!' said Draco as a few rubies flew up into the upper bulb.
'10 points to Gryfindor.' said Sarah quietly and watched Draco's face as the rubies flew back into the lower bulb.
'But how...' he said and spotted the medal on Sarah's chest.
