*Professor Flitwick emerged from the crowd, his happiness and excitement was easily palpable from his facial expressions. He greeted every professor moving across his way in a very benevolent manner, and responded with a wide smile to the students who greeted him*
*He arrived at the doors of his Office and was delighted to find Scarlett awaiting for the doors to open. With a gentle swish, the doors flew open and Professor Flitwick walked into the room. he averted his eyes upon the lady and said*
Hello. Good to see you here, how may I help you?
*He strided across the room way towards his chair and got himself comfortably seated in the armchair*
Grab a chair, young lady!

*Smiles as Professor Flitwick approaches and enters the room behind him, she gently closes the door before taking up his offer of a seat.*
"Welcome back Professor, I trust you are well?"

Yes. I'm doing fine, I had been to this country, India. Actually, had accompanied Prof. Hauner, he had some work that needed to be accomplished.
*While saying all this, the Professor couldnt form a proper eye contact with Scarlett thus he pulls the armchair towards his desk, hops and conjures a huge pile of books over it and quickly climbs over it, hoping that this ninny act of his would not grab Scarlett's attention*
And if I'm correct, you are an Auror by profession. What made you come here at Hogwarts? Is everything allright?
*Looks into her eyes*

*Smiles.*
"Wow India, sounds lovely. I've always fancied going to a warmer country."
*Doesn't pay attention to when Filius adds extra books to boost his height. After all, the height of a wizard was no reflection on how powerful they were, and Scarlett knew that the man in front of her was extremely powerful.*
*Crosses her legs as she speaks*
"Correct, I am a fully trained Auror. Oh yes, everything is quite alright with myself and the Ministry, I just felt I needed time away from day to day Auror work and I was offered the temporary position of your job until you came back. I must say though that I feel ready to go back to the Ministry now, especially after a recent incident.."
*Trails off and absentmindedly rubs her neck where Ophelia bit her.*

*Bends towards his desk, his expressions clearly stating that he seemed very interested in whatever Scarlett was narrating. His eyes vehemently expressed his concern over the issue*
What incident dear?
*Rolls his eyes towards Scarlett's neck, but was unable to find any traces of bruises. He was very keen on knowing what had happened, he did know that there was something of whcih he wasnt aware.*

*Looks up slightly shocked to find herself rubbing her neck. She removes her hand and folds them on her lap.*
*Clears her throat and realizes that the Professor seemed very interested in her story.*
"It was just a teeny..tiny incident where my wandwork wasn't as fast as it needed to be. I got careless and got hit with a dark spell which caused me to bleed far too much ....and it drew the attention of a vampire.... Who bit me."
*Looks away from the Professor, still ashamed at the fact that she failed herself with her slow charm work.*
*Clears her throat again.*
"But not to worry, I healed very quickly and came straight back here to teach the students. Although they were far too interested in what had happened for my liking..."

*Startled, he motions a huge pile of tattered books towards the closet standing to his right, trying to look busy. His mind was being invaded with a plethora of thoughts gushing so rapidly that he couldnt actually ponder over one of them. He could not believe the weakened state of the Ministry and looked very apprehensive*
How can Aurors afford to commit such mistakes? Lack of wandwork.. Thats not an excuse.
Oh, thats sad. Anyways, teaching must have driven the pulse in you. It has been an exciting experience, I guess?
*Conjures a goblet out of nowhere filled with Gillywater.*
Do you wish to have one, dear?

*Frowns slightly at the tiny Professor, she knew that what she said could have been taken the wrong way against her. She knew that she was not magically inept but when one is dueling with three Death Eaters and trying to keep an eye on comrades as well, then accidents happen. She was just lucky in the fact that it was her that got hurt and no one else.*
"Yes I thoroughly enjoyed teaching. I think that once my time has been served at the Ministry then I might apply for a role in teaching. There's some kind of happiness in molding young minds to the way of magic."
*Shakes her head at the offer of water.*
"No thank you."

*The professor could easily make out things going on within Scarlett's mind, but he kept things to himself and did not respond over it. He loathed hearing instances of ineffectualness, that too from experient wizards such as the Aurors. He couldnt make such an alleged statement as it could seriously ruin his relations with the Ministry.*
*Hearing to Scarlett's polite denial to his request, he quickly finishes his portion of the drink and keeps the goblet on the desk.*
Teaching surely interests you, and taking it up as your profession would be good. You should always do things which you're good at.
*Those crisp words he uttered at the end of his statement clearly stated his own opinion about the incident Scarlett just recited.*

*Hauner heads into Flitwick's office, all of them long strides, wanting to talk urgently to him. Slows down at his office door as he sees someone already in his office*
*Hauner Strides into the office, motioning his fingers as if to say, 'It's Urgent, Can I talk to you?'*

*His attention is suddenly diverted towards a tall figure standing upright at the threshold of his office, whom he later recognized to be Prof. Hauner. It seemed, he had something to talk about in person.*
What is he upto now?
*Prof. Hauner's sudden arrival, in a way cemented Filius' alleged claims of Hauner's extensively strange behaviour during their visit to India. Moreover, Hauner did not act much as an affable figure to him, so this surprising gesture of Hauner' left Filius in a baffled state. The turmoil within him was easily refleted on his face through his uneasy expressions, which he tried to conceal by at once hopping off his armchair.*
Scarlett, I have one of my friend, Prof. Hauner waiting outside my office. It seems he has some important news to discuss.
*Starts advancing towards the door*
I'll be back in sometime.
*Saying this, he continues his stride towards the oakdoors of his office.*
What is it, Hauner?

*Trying, yet unable to conceal the agitation, he verbalizes his thoughts*
I have had an awful dream, really awful. Do you think dreams are true? At the moment, you are the only one in Hogwarts whom I can talk with, freely. After a short term at Hogwarts, and yet, a big vacation from Hogwarts, there are little number of people who are any more than an acquaintance to me. Do tell me whom should I converse with about my dream... rather a nightmare, if they are to be feared.
*hopes himself to be told with a name of any person aiding Lord Voldemort, though it is most unlikely*
*Hauner, knowing he has little acquaintances in Hogwarts, and the only one, Filius, who knows him better than anyone around, still has little to speak to him of his dream. After all, he is aiding nothing but the goodies! Hauner is not in interested in aiding the good, not in the least, after the visit to India!*

*Prof. Flitwick's mind was being flooded with umpteen thoughts, most of them confirming his not-so-sure-but-convincing claims about Hauner. He even for a moment felt that Hauner was perhaps plotting a very rarified plan about something of which this could be the first step.*
But why would he want my assistance over this? What could be the motive behind this plan.. if there exists a plan.. err..
*Unable to figure out a suitable purpose, he broke the silence*
Dreams.. they could be true, I'm not sure. You could surely take Trelawney's advice over this?
*He almost wanted to gulp the last few words he uttered.
Suggesting Trelawney's name at this moment would mean, that I'll have no clue about his intentions neither the dream of his. darn!
*He was incessantly gazing at the oakdoor while all those thoughts occupied his mind. He suddenly looked upwards into the eyes of Hauner and said*
Oh wait, it just occurred to me that Trelawney isnt around, in that case, the books in my shelf would perhaps be able to answer your questions?

*Hauner just didn't have any idea in his mind, as to how was he going to tell Flitwick any of the things that he thought. He had only hoped himself to be escorted to some person who had same intentions as him. Trelawney would have been fine, but she can't make much. She has instincts, but no action during a scene*
*pausing for few seconds, Hauner replies, trying to forge new ideas for a nightmare that CAN be described to Flitwick. Of course, he has been a good Occlumens, so in that case, he can't be read*
... Well, I would have check the books in your shelf, but I reckon there's less about Dark Magic. You are not the type I discern to be keeping such books. However, it occurs to me, since the nightmare had few dark elements in them, I should get in touch -
*Hauner reshuffes his words*
- JUST get-in-touch, nothing more, of course - in order to have the most correct interpretations.
*Hauner sighs*

*The words Dark Magic occupied Flitwick's mind, his assumptions were gradually turning out to be true. The curiosity was killing his insides.*
Dark.. huh? Thats not good. Still we could definitely find some reference.
*He tried to look more composed while hoping that his facial expressions didnt contribute much to reflecting his opinion regarding Hauner*
Get inside..
*He beckoned Hauner towards the chair right next to the one which was already occupied by Miss. Scarlett. He then tramped to his armachair still trying to figure out Hauner's intentions*
Hauner, grab a chair.
*He then looked at Miss. Scarlett*
I hope Hauner's presence wouldnt make you feel uncomfortable?
