Come up to the door of Professor Dumont’s office and knock, the professor is usually in and is happy to talk to you about whatever you may have in mind, especially if it involves muggle studies.

As you walk through the door of Professor Dumont’s office, you are struck by the fact that at least part of this room appears not to be that magical at all, but looking rather like an office you might see on muggle television (had you ever had the chance to see muggle television, that is!) The main feature of the room is a very large wood desk with a nice comfortable chair behind it, a purple, cushiony chair. There are a couple chairs in front of the desk, which appears as though it may be oak, both these chairs are a dark green velvet, padded, and appear very comfortable as well. The rug on the floor is a forest green color, imprinted with a variety of flowers in many different colors, it is very relaxing and lovely, one of the prettiest rugs you could ever find. Professor Dumont inherited this rug from his family, it is an heirloom.

On the right hand wall you notice many photos calling to mind muggle entertainers. There are photos of various muggle rock bands from the ‘60’s and ‘70’s including the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, the Who, Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin (it turns out that Professor Dumont loves this type of music). There are pictures of Elvis Presley as well, along with such muggle icons as Marilyn Monroe and James Dean, Michael Jackson, Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Bing Crosby, Perry Como, and many others.

On.the wall immediately behind the desk are some photos that are obviously personal. There are pictures of a very old castle with high pirouetting towers, this is Castle Dumont, Antonio’s family home. You gather that it is located somewhere in France, and you would be correct. You will also find many of the pictures that move and talk, wizarding pictures, there is a man and a woman in their 50’s, Professor Dumont’s parents. There is a new picture added this year, one which has a special place right over the Professor's desk. This picture is of a very pretty little girl, no more than 2 years old, with curly dark hair and a somewhat familiar look about her. You would be guessing correctly if you guessed that this is a picture of Professor Dumont's daughter, Antonia Michelle, who he has just become reunited with during the term break. But that's a whole other story, one you may or may not be lucky enough to hear (probably not!)

Along the left wall there is a long table which goes the length of the room. On this table are many muggle items to look at and perhaps even play with, including computers, video monitors that might even pick up muggle television (who knows?), video game systems, cell phones, iPods, skateboards, yoyos, Playdough, Legos, various board games, and a huge variety of books on all subjects. Your eyes fall on this table longingly, perhaps you might have the chance to play with some of these items yourself if you are very good some time, you never know!

Jack blushed "You're special too" he smiled "Cute" he laughed as she stuck out her tongue "So, professor, what have we managed to get to so far?" Jack asked

Slytherin Fox · 02-18-2009, 02:10 PM

"Well, we know now what the letter says and we have a fairly good lead who the person is we're after. However, I think Sakura raises a very good point that we can't be 100 percent positive about who is responsible for the curse, even though all the facts point to Claxton. This is not something you can just stumble into blindly, we are talking about a very dangerous person, of course. On top of that, we don't want to go after someone who isn't to blame, even though that person may be inherently evil. The only thing we are concerned with is freeing the Moiser family from the curse at this point. Even though some of us do owe Claxton for things he has done in the past. Also, there is the matter of involving the Ministry in this. Has anyone given any consideration to that?" He looked at the group, waiting to see if anyone else had anything more to add.

Jack nodded "I agree we don't want to go for the wrong person" Jack sighed "No, not the ministry, no, no, no" Jack shook his head furiously "I don't want them to get involved, too many people know already" Jack was getting agitated again "It's too big, It's simple, we go for Claxton, we all owe him, if he isn't the person, he is being brought to justice for all the things he did" Jack shrugged "But no ministry involvement" Jack said stubbornly

Slytherin Fox · 02-18-2009, 05:35 PM

Antonio sighed. "What do the rest of you have to say about this?", he asked. He had to agree, the Ministry had more or less messed things up with them the last time they were close to catching Claxton as he recalled, perhaps it was best to leave them out of it this time.

Jack stood up "Seriously, if the ministry get involved, I'm out, I am NOT working with the ministry, they are idiots, If I'm out, you wont know what Claxton's next move will be, John only gets visions about small things, I can hear anything, anywhere" Jack told him "Even you think we should" Jack added

Slytherin Fox · 02-18-2009, 07:22 PM

"Okay, then," Antonio said. "I guess we are agreed about this, then. Unless any of the rest of you have something to say about this, any reasons why the Ministry should be involved?"

Becky · 02-18-2009, 07:40 PM

Jack looked around the room, staring each person in the eye, daring them to say yes, Jack hated the ministry more than he hated... Kayla Winters, he shuddered at the thought of her and then turned to Dumont "Professor, I have to ask something, totally unrelated to this ministry talk"

Slytherin Fox · 02-18-2009, 07:50 PM

Antonio looked at Jack. "Sure, go ahead," he said. He wondered what else Jack wanted to discuss besides the matter at hand, but was happy for the diversion. He was afraid the conversation might become a bit intense, and they still had a lot of planning to do before any concrete action could be made one way or the other.

Becky · 02-18-2009, 07:53 PM

Jack took a deep breath "It's that prefect, Kayla winters, she's been threatening me, for getting in trouble, and I can't help it" Jack shook his head sadly "She said she's going to Professor Shackleton" Jack started to shake with frustration.

Slytherin Fox · 02-18-2009, 08:11 PM

Antonio listened to Jack. "I see," he said. "I think she is getting frustrated, some of these things are hard for her to understand. Have you yourself talked to Professor Shackleton?"

Becky · 02-18-2009, 08:14 PM

Jack nodded "I know she is, but why is she taking it out on me?" he asked, Jack then shook his head "No I haven't, she sorta makes me feel uncomfortable, I dunno why" Jack shivered

Danny Boy · 02-18-2009, 08:19 PM

Barry looked at the professer "Maybe members of the ministry, ones that can keep a secret like our two parents but not the whole ministry because if they`re in we won`t be allowed to do anything " he stated

Becky · 02-18-2009, 08:23 PM

Jack shook his head "No, no ministry at all, not a single person, not even my dad" Jack told Barry

Slytherin Fox · 02-18-2009, 08:37 PM

Antonio laughed. "She can be a bit imposing, I suppose, but I don't think she's as bad as people think once you get to know her. And as far as Kayla goes, I think she would be more understanding if she knew what you were going through. But I can appreciate your not wanting to go into all of that with her," he added. "So, you want no one involved in this at all, even though your dad works for the Ministry?", he asked, wondering how this was going to play out. "I'd just like to hear what John has to say about that before we decide anything," he said. "After all, he has a say in this, too."

Becky · 02-18-2009, 08:48 PM

Jack raised his eyebrows "Imposing?" Jack sighed "I thought she already knew" Jack said confusedly "Well, I suppose we'd have to tell dad, but as long as he doesn't tell anyone" Jack reasoned "Ok, John?" Jack turned to him

Danny Boy · 02-18-2009, 08:59 PM

"And my father? He`s not been the same ever scince mum dissapeared and it got even worse when his sister went, how do you expect me to not tell him and anyway us... John, Sakura , you Jack, reese perhaps and that gryfindor girl were just kids the only adult we have is Professer Dumont and well he can`t protect us all" he said quite simply "Claxton had freinds who helped him last time who is to say they won`t be there this time?" he asked

John looked up as his name got brought into the conversation. "No, ministry and that reminds me Jack I don't think dad would be able to help, he's busy with work at the minute so he won't have time to help us." John smiled. "And no other Ministry people please, I wish I was old enough to vote." He looked at the Professor. "Isn't it the election year soon?" He asked he was sure it was.

Slytherin Fox · 02-18-2009, 09:21 PM

"Yes, I believe it is," Antonio said. "And here are my personal thoughts on this. The people who are involved with this, who have been touched by Claxton personally, have a right to be involved in our fight against him. It doesn't have to be the entire Ministry, but I do agree that there are a few adults who are necessarily touched by what he did. Jack and John, your dad is one of those as is yours, Barry."

Weasley174 · 02-18-2009, 09:32 PM

John looked at Jack and Dumont. "Fine, if you want to get the ministry involved then you can do it without me." He was about to yell when he saw another vision in his head this was the worse one so far and the words he said he had no idea what they were. "There will be one more casualty before the night is out." And with that John fainted.

Jack sighed "If you want your dad in this, then fine, but I am not going to need protecting" Jack said simply "I will find a way to get out of these situations" Jack shrugged "If I get hit, tough" Jack sighed

Jack nodded "I agree, he said he was busy" Jack smiled back "No, no ministry people, we have ready built weapons here, all I have to do is..." Jack stopped thinking about what he'd have to do "I don't want Sak there" he added

"I'm not going to use the ministry, didn't you hear me? John?" Jack froze "Oh, that's bad" Jack put his hand over his shoulder and clawed at it "Oh, no, John" Jack caught John before John hit the floor "Here" he mumbled before propping him against the sofa.

"Thank you professer, and of no ministry perhaps a few more hogwarts students? What ever seems best to you of cource" said Barry simply

"JOHN!" Barry shouted as the boy fell "This is bad, do you think this means our families are at stake? Oh no, oh no, oh no. I have to check home , sir do you have floo powder? I won`t leave school grounds I promise" he said

"Fine , fine Jack what ever but you can`t stop Sakura going if she wants to" said Barry quitely.

Slytherin Fox · 02-18-2009, 09:47 PM

"This is not good, not good at all," Antonio said. "One more casualty before the night is out? I don't like the sound of that at all." He then glanced over at Jack and John. "Is he okay?", he asked. "Thank you for catching him, by the way." He looked at Barry. "Yes, I do have some floo powder if you want to check home quickly," he said. He handed some of the greenish powder over to Barry. "Does anyone else need to check with their relatives?"

Antonio then thought about Antonia Michelle. He certainly couldn't allow anything to happen to her. He wondered if he should floo home himself, if only for a moment.

Danny Boy · 02-18-2009, 09:58 PM

Barry thanked the professor and took the powder and said "Weasley Place!" and his head popped through the fireplace and he looked around his home his father was home , he was fine but his brother, he had a big cut on his chest.

Dan looked up from his brother to Barrys face which had appeared in the fireplace "Barry, hes fine a man got him or something thats what he says, I have to block up the fire place, we`ll be going to someone elses house go see if anyone will take Daniel in you have five minuites before I close the whole." he said quickly and then he dissapeared to pack.

Barrys head emerged and he looked around in shock "Someone was there tonight, they got my brother, Jack could they go to your dads place? They`re not safe at home" he said worridly

Becky · 02-18-2009, 10:02 PM

Jack nodded "Go ahead"
