Sarah was just about to head over to the Pizza Parlor down the street from the Ministry to take her lunch break and catch up with some of her school friends. That was untill she recieved a letter about an important meeting that was taking place right then. So send an owl to one of her friends telling them that she would not be able to make it to their lunch.
She left her cubical and heading to the conference room. When she arrived in the room she noticed that nearly everyone was there. She smiled to Sophia the only coworker she she knew she really needed to meet the others. She seen her boss and waved to her "Hello, Mrs. Latorta." She said before she took a seat at the round table.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Willow Essence Evergreen Fifth Year | Top secret meeting? What could this be about? Dimitri frowned as he quickly made his way to the conference room, not wanting to be late. He didn't sit, but stood stiffly in a corner. He gave a nod of hello to Gina. "Gina," he said quietly.

Sophie walked in and took her usual seat in the Conference Room. Then she looked to her boss and said, "Gina so sorry I'm late." Harland looked up as a few more people entered the room. When Sophie sat down a few seats down from him, Harland gave her a small, brief smile for no one else to catch before he sat back in his seat and waited for the meeting to officially start.

So dutifully (AKA in accordance with his job), Harland sat down around the table next to the few people there, most of which he didn't know, and waited. "Hello Harland," Hello big strapping lad... "I'm sorry to make you stand again, but be a dear and stand by the door? I don't want others... to walk in. Just this department. Can you do that for me, please?" Quote:

PHEW. He'd made it in time. Calming himself and running a hand through his hair to flatten it, the 28 year old strode into the room and took a seat, nodding to the Department Head. "Sorry for the delay, Mrs. Latorta. I'll make sure it won't happen again," he said, truly sorry for the time it had taken him and already plotting ways to murder his twin without anyone noticing.
Ooh, perhaps the meeting has something to do with the MLE situation. Though he couldn't really see how that affected International Cooperation. . . Oh well, he'll be enlightened soon enough. "Tom, sweety, call me Gina." She said sweetly. Quote:

"Anyway, whats going on? The letter sounded urgent." "It is urgent Aria... but you aren't late. Sit please." She said. Quote:

Yep. But he was quite interested in what the meeting was actually about, like Top Secret? It was definitely intriguing "Charlie, hello, you're fine." She said. Quote:

She said pacing the room now. "I need this to be a private meeting."
She began casting privacy spells, overriding any spells set by anyone who had been there previously. When she was sure the privacy was set, she turned to the others.
"I am sure you are well aware by now, that the ministry is being led by an idiotic blob of a man who has no idea what he is doing. I can no longer stand by and see this place go down. He has recently suspended the MLE's apparition licenses, and asked me to train a replacement. I will do better. I wish you all to help. If you do not want to do so, I will understand, and go on doing your job as assigned." She looked at everyone. "But please tell me if you do not want to participate now."
She waited.

Katrina may have been feeling not so good today, but this made her perk up a bit. It seemed exciting.

| Who Am I? Ern's 2460FUN Spohie watched as Gina nervously fumbled through what her orders were by Minister Fatso Borr. It seemed that the more she explained the more she was growing uncomfortable. Even when she had greeted Sophie Gina was seemingly nervous. This whole trainee thing had more to it than what she assumed Gina was telling them all. So Sophie sat back in her chair and looked around the table to all of her fellow employees. Once Gina was done Sophie raised her quill to acknowledge that she would help, "I'll do whatever you need me to do ma'am. Of course I am curious as to why a trainee is a subject of an urgent meeting."

Sarah smiled a bit, and nodded "Of course, Gina." Yeah, she was still young and it felt so weird to call people who was older than her by their first name. She sat and waited for more people to get. She listened as Gina told them abput that awful Borr guy, and he wanted Gina to help train the next one to take over. Sarah spoke up. "Of course. I'll help in anyway I can."

Dimitri couldn't help but chuckle at her description of Borr. 'Idiotic Blob' just about covered it. He quickly disguised his chuckle as a cough behind his fist. After regaining composure, he spoke up for the first time. "Gina, I will be more than willing to do whatever it takes to help." And that was the honest truth. Work was the most important thing to him, and he wasn't about to let it be destroyed without doing anything to help keep it's needed peace, so to speak.

She waited. His eyes taking in everything quickly as they normally did, Gavin leaned forward in his chair his arms infront of him on the desk. "Training in a replacement...? For...?" His forehead knitted in confusion.
"Ms. Latorte, no matter what it is, I'll be happy to help, no questions asked." He added, he wasn't sure what was going on, but knew this guy who was the said minister was ridiculous from what he'd seen so far. But as long as he was needed, he wasn't going anywhere.

She waited. OH. Charlie wasn't late? AWESOME. 10 points to Team Charlie. He watched as his boss started casting privacy spells, what was going on? Possibly something to do with the MLE head's lose of apparition license? AWESOME, well not really, interesting was probably the word he was looking for. He wanted to clap Gina for calling Lord Borr or whatever an idiotic blob, who knew the girl had it in her? But not participate in totally going against Borr's plans/orders/whatever? Like that was gonna happen. "With you all the way Gina" oh yeah. He was cool. Everyone was saying that they were willing to hep? That was too mainstream for Charlie. Nah, Charlie was with her all the way. AW YEAH.

Impressed by his boss's courage, Matt didn't say anything for a while, too busy taking in the new information. The Minister wanted to replace Gina? 'No way, we can't let that happen. You can count on me with whatever you need, Gina.' the man said, a bit later than everyone else, but meh, better later than never,
He then listened to the woman's radical, but logical suggestion. 'That is rough, but playing nice definitely won't work with that man. So, what do you need us to do?' Matthew asked, realizing it would be a big effort for everyone and hoping it wouldn't be in vain.

She waited. Gina. Right, of course. Tom nodded, then eyed the two men that went to guard the door. A flash of irritation passed over him due to the head not asking HIM to guard too, but it was gone as quickly as it had come. He wasn't as petty as he used to be.
... A replacement? Certainly, Tom agreed that Borr was a blob of a man, but Gina was fantastic at her job; even HE had to see it. "I'm with you, Gina," he said, and was pleased to see everyone else saying the same thing. Good. He wouldn't want to be in a department who's employees were Borr fans. Quote:

"So. I'm planning on denying entry to anyone coming from abroad for the minister and his followers. I'm planning on making it very difficult for anything or anyone to come into England from the outside Magical World." She said and waited to see other's reactions. Tom's face split into a wide, slightly mischievous grin. What an ingenious idea! And after Borr being so horridly rude to Gina - really, as a MAN, he should know better, forget a boss - the Argentinean wanted nothing more than to cooperate. "Brilliant," he said, and chuckled, flexing his arms before him before rolling his shoulders. "Count me in for any help whatsoever," Tom added as an afterthought. A small worry that he might lose his job managed to break the spell for a second, but he banished it away. He could afford that - he had other options, and besides, he doubted Borr could afford to sack an ENTIRE department in one go.
Of course, that was all depending on the other's replies. Turning from Gina to his coworkers, Tom eyed them all, trying to guess what their replies would be.

A replacment for Gina? that was outrages and he called her a worthless sack of an ald woman. Gina was brilliant at her job ''Gina nobody will be as good as you'' said Rebecca after a few minutes
Rebecca wasn't leaving she was happy to help she'd do anything

"So. I'm planning on denying entry to anyone coming from abroad for the minister and his followers. I'm planning on making it very difficult for anything or anyone to come into England from the outside Magical World." She said and waited to see other's reactions. Sophie nearly choked when she heard that the Minister was replacing Gina. How could he do that? Not only was she brilliant at her job, but she was the kind of employer that made Sophie want for the Ministry in England. If it was anyone else she would have straight up stayed and worked for the Australian Minster of Magic. However, Gina chanegd her mind and made her want to come back over to the United Kingdom to work, "He's firing you? How can he do that? Technically he needs reasonable cause to fire you and since you have done no wrong he can't. He just can't." Sophie said shocked.
When Gina proposed that they refuse entry into the country any of Borr's followers Sophie nodded. She hated Borr anyway and she would gladly help make his man's life as miserable as possible. He was an evil and self-absorbed man. If it came down to her losing her job she was fine with that as well. She was not the kind of witch who just sat ideally by and allowed politicians to control the world for fear of her job, "Whatever you need Gina. I'll do what I can."
..."Who is this new trainee?"

Hogwarts RPG Name: Elliot James Fourth Year | Music = Life::Create Memories Katrina froze. Did she say replace Gina? She stood up quickly and her fists hit the table. "Is he crazy!? Replace you?" Katrina exclaimed. Borr was put of his mind! Katrina was furious. She hadn't been like this since last week when she threw a box of empty chocolates at her depressed best friends head!

He has recently suspended the MLE's apparition licenses, and asked me to train a replacement. I will do better. I wish you all to help. If you do not want to do so, I will understand, and go on doing your job as assigned." She looked at everyone. "But please tell me if you do not want to participate now."
She waited. Harland blinked, trying to make sense of what she was saying. And it wasn't that he didn't understand, he was just understanding what an IDIOT the Minister of Magic was. "Whatever you need, Gina, I'll help with," Harland said from his spot at the door. Quote:

"A replacement for me." She said to the man. "To quote the Minister, he thinks I'm a 'Worthless Sack of an Old Woman' and someone else could do my job better." He could think what he wanted... Her department would take him down.
"[B]I am so happy you all are willing to help. If anyone changes their mind in this meeting, or decides they don't like what they hear, then please, I will not be mad, but just be honest with me, as I have always been honest with you all.[b]" Her eyes glistened with the threat of tears that never manifested themselves.
"So. I'm planning on denying entry to anyone coming from abroad for the minister and his followers. I'm planning on making it very difficult for anything or anyone to come into England from the outside Magical World." She said and waited to see other's reactions. "What?" Harland said suddenly when Gina announced that it was she who would be being replaced. "He said that? He actually said that?" His hands balled into fists at his sides. How could anyone say that to such a kind (if not sometimes a little bit uptight) woman? Of course, it was her job, and he respected her for that. Quote:

However, Gina chanegd her mind and made her want to come back over to the United Kingdom to work, "He's firing you? How can he do that? Technically he needs reasonable cause to fire you and since you have done no wrong he can't. He just can't." Sophie said shocked.
When Gina proposed that they refuse entry into the country any of Borr's followers Sophie nodded. She hated Borr anyway and she would gladly help make his man's life as miserable as possible. He was an evil and self-absorbed man. If it came down to her losing her job she was fine with that as well. She was not the kind of witch who just sat ideally by and allowed politicians to control the world for fear of her job, "Whatever you need Gina. I'll do what I can."
..."Who is this new trainee?" Harland nodded with everything Sophie was saying, and then his eyes returned to Gina at Sophie's question. He was just as anxious to everyone to know who this bigshot was.

Esteban had listened to what Gina had to say, he compeletly agreed with her, the man was a moron, but was taking on the minister of magic something he was really willing to do so close to the wedding. What if something happened and he couldn't get back to Jen. "Gina, what did you have in mind?" He asked thinking he would at the very least here her out before he made any decision. And he would most certianly NOT rat her out, even if later on he changed his mind.

His eyes widened then narrowed as she spoke. The man who had decided she was worthless as she put it, irritated him. Having been in her department for a fair bit now, he had found her to be a decent head, and that was hard to find. Here at the British ministry he'd had two and they'd both been very good at their jobs.
"Ma'am, I'll do everything I can to help, in any way I can." he replied with a nod. He was sure she was hurt and needing encouragement, "And I'll use all I have of use to me to do so as well."

"So. I'm planning on denying entry to anyone coming from abroad for the minister and his followers.

What'shisface wanted to replace Gina? But she's like a cuddly little grandma. EVERYONE LOVES HER. Charlie was so not cool with that. So not cool. He listened to what she had to say then got a wee bit confused, then figured it out. He sort of agreed with her but he didn't feel the need to voice anything. He personally thought that considering that they were the International Cooperation level they should continue Internationally cooperating but he wanted to support Gina, so he kept his trap shut. Then someone asked the question he had been wondering himself, who would be the trainee?

Hogwarts RPG Name: Willow Essence Evergreen Fifth Year | Dimitri's face paled slightly. "But he can't replace you!" The daft idiot. This man was going to bring the Ministry crashing down. He listened to her idea with his arms crossed over his chest, occasionally glancing at the door. "That's the right way to go, in my opinion. We can't be soft." Which was the truth. If Borr was going to be rough, so were they. "Is there anything at all I could do? Just name it." He had contacts in other countries, and would be more than willing to recruit their help.

Pippa could have sworn Gina had just said- SHE HAD. She'd said she was going to be replaced. "It's not like he can talk about being worthless..." The blonde quipped bitterly, before rubbing at her temples. "Ignore that. That was rude." She'd meant it, every word of it, but it had seemed rather mean about the Minister.
Watching her boss carefully, she chewed her lip as everyone else announced their ability and willingness to help. "I'm in. Whatever needs doing."

He then listened to the woman's radical, but logical suggestion. 'That is rough, but playing nice definitely won't work with that man. So, what do you need us to do?' Matthew asked, realizing it would be a big effort for everyone and hoping it wouldn't be in vain. "Thank you Matt." she said nodding. Quote:
Originally Posted by fire_faerie Gina. Right, of course. Tom nodded, then eyed the two men that went to guard the door. A flash of irritation passed over him due to the head not asking HIM to guard too, but it was gone as quickly as it had come. He wasn't as petty as he used to be.
... A replacement? Certainly, Tom agreed that Borr was a blob of a man, but Gina was fantastic at her job; even HE had to see it. "I'm with you, Gina," he said, and was pleased to see everyone else saying the same thing. Good. He wouldn't want to be in a department who's employees were Borr fans.
Tom's face split into a wide, slightly mischievous grin. What an ingenious idea! And after Borr being so horridly rude to Gina - really, as a MAN, he should know better, forget a boss - the Argentinean wanted nothing more than to cooperate. "Brilliant," he said, and chuckled, flexing his arms before him before rolling his shoulders. "Count me in for any help whatsoever," Tom added as an afterthought. A small worry that he might lose his job managed to break the spell for a second, but he banished it away. He could afford that - he had other options, and besides, he doubted Borr could afford to sack an ENTIRE department in one go.
Of course, that was all depending on the other's replies. Turning from Gina to his coworkers, Tom eyed them all, trying to guess what their replies would be. "Thank you, Tom. I really appreciate the support." She said. Quote:

Rebecca wasn't leaving she was happy to help she'd do anything "Thank you, Rebecca, I do appreciate your vote of confidence." Gina was about to cry... Quote:

How can we stop international transportation of people and goods?" She said looking at them. "Of course. I'm proud to work under you," Tom replied, then allowed his mind to drift to his work. He was a taxman... Did Borr have a limited amount of money? Somehow he didn't think so.
OH. Hehe. "Well, I'm not in charge of immigration but I reckon I could confiscate and/or ban animals, goods and other items that are imported," the Argentinean said, musing as he looked down at the table, then back up at Gina. "Or, we could collect it all and hide it somewhere under the pretense that we're double checking the nature of it all... making sure it's not harmful and all that," he added with a slight grin. "But I suggest we find out what goes directly to Borr and what doesn't even pass by him at all so that we won't anger the wrong people," Tom added as an afterthought. After all, it was really only Borr and his people who were at fault here. The rest of the British wizarding population shouldn't suffer for it.
