Meeting Her New Boss

Clara stepped out of the life the butterflies in her stomach causing a rampage of anxiety as her heals clicked along the tile hallway. She glanced with a small smile at the Senior Undersecretary's office and with pride realized soon it would be her name on that plaque. Moving a few yards down she came to the Minister's office. She had met the man on a few brief occasions when she worked as an Auror but never spoke to him one on one. Taking a deep breath she knocked on the door then in her classic style she simply walked in.

Jeremy was laid back on his seat, feet on the table with no work to do... apprantely everything seemed too calm. Suddenly, he heard a knock on the door an kicked his feet off and said, "Come in."

"Hello sir" She said walking into the room she smiled as she took in his laid back appearance as he moved to look much more professional. "My name is Clara, Clara Lestrange. I was just appointed the position of Senior Undersecretary."

"Clara Lestrange.. what's your relation to the Lestranges?" Jeremy asked very clearly. He did hire her..

She sat down in a chair opposite the man who controlled the wizarding world, folding her slender frame with ease she faced him uncowed by his questions. "My mother was Bellatrix Lestrange and my father Rodulphus Lestrange, I am the oldest of there three children"

"And what are you planning on doing here as senior undersecretary?" he asked.

"i'm planning to work towards the betterment of the ministry" she said calmly "and to do my job of course"

"Interesting.. any brother or sister?"

"Two brothers, about six years younger then me. Twins Alec and Jace" she said "I do believe Jace is looking to work for Hogwarts soon"

Jeremy nodded. "As senior undersecretary you will be reporting to me daily. Also, there is another thing..." he said. "See, the headmaster of Hogwarts, in my eyes is doing a poor job. I don't want you take over, but one of your priorities will be hogwarts."

"I'm sorry sir i do not believe I follow, you wish me to preside over Hogwarts some?" she said with confusion

"The headmaster is weak. The school itself is on high alert... see there is this rumor that's indeed true. About some sort of weapon that's hidden in Hogwarts, and the headmaster has done nothing about it."

"so you wish for me to make my presence known in hogwarts?" she said "shall i be taking a position there?"

"No. I can't have that. Owen is an old friend but he is very weak. There is a rumor about some sort of special book that dark wizards desire in Hogwarts. Dark forces penetrating Hogwarts rumors are everywhere... to me it's just insane. But, we always need to be cautious." he stopped. "By the way, you got the job."

"So you wish for me to look into these rumors, find the book if i can?" she said then smiled "I'm not surprised sir, seeing as you are speaking to me so freely"

"Correct. The library there is closed for some reason and I need to find out why. Just then get killed along the way."

"I can certainly look into this, I understand you are friends with Headmaster I feel i should see him first"

((Good luck, he hasn't been online since September 23))

((then what should my first action be?))

((just go to hogwarts, he's never online and he created the site))

((i shall do that then))

"No need. Just go into Hogwarts when you please." Jeremy stood. "I think that's it for today, welcome to the ministry."

"thank you sir" she said getting to her feet she shook the mans hand and smiled before leaving.
