*Looks up at Zero, taking one of his hands in hers.*
Zero wouldn't even think of letting me go alone.
*Looks at the man puzzled for a moment.*
hmm?

*He waves his hand*
Of course, her safety is paramount. Which is why I'm telling you that she needs a partner in this. Someone who can keep an eye on her and have the same in return. A partner she knows and can trust.

*Nods in understanding*
Yes she would most certainly have that if we were together.
*Knits his brows together.*
But I also worry that seeing anyone do anything to her would blow my cover - our cover. The Dark Lord punishes his followers for even the smallest of mistakes, I'm not so sure I would handle that very well.

*She listens to the two men speak as if she wasn't there. After he was finished speaking she spoke up, wanting to be heard.*
There are no Aurors available to go with me. If I have to... I will go alone. I don't want to blow Zero's cover.

*He puts his hands together and leans on the table.*
I understand that you have a special bond. I'm reluctant to allow this, but as you say, everyone has so much to do lately, we can't afford to let too many go.
*His eyes rest on Zero.*
You must remember to keep your temper. Your years of ground work will go to waste if you slip up. Personal feelings must be second to your duties.

*Averts his eyes from the Baron, and Venus, looking around the office.*
I will use all the strength I have.
*Brings his eyes back to the man in front of him.*
I won't make any mistakes.
*Runs his hands through his hair, and remembers the night he spent with Sebastian.*
Not to change the subject, sir, but I am to be brought before the Dark Lord in a few days time.
*Puffs out his chest proudly.*

Showing yourself as hoping to become one of his followers? Fantastic. That will make it easier for you to get Venus inside too. Some good news finally.
*Strokes his beard for a moment*
I do hope you both understand the seriousness of the situation. You will be risking death even if you can convince them that you are legitimate followers. Their punishments for even minor failures are very harsh.

Im more than prepared to face whatever comes my way.
*looks between the two men and moves to stand up.*
Gentelmen, If I am no longer needed I must be off. I need to have a talk with my superior, and then work on some plans.
*She moves around the chair, kissed Zero quickly on the cheek and turned to face his boss waiting to be dismissed.*

*His thoughts once again go to the night he spent with Sebastian. He removes his arm from around Venus, rising from the chair's arm.*
I've seen the outcome of his punishments. I don't suppose one could build a tolerance to the Cruciatus Curse?
*The question is rhetorical, he knows that it isn't possible to do so.*
It is fortunate for me, sir, to have been raised in the environment I was. My family has had Death Eater friends since I can remember, one of them surely knows of me, and my "loyalty".

*He looks up at the girl who seems keen to leave.*
Even if you could build a resistance to the Cruciatus, He-who-must-not-be-nameds would be the most powerful you would ever encounter. I think we have all said all that is needed. You may both go.
*He rises to his feet once more and holds out his hand to shake again.*
Nice to meet you Miss Tamwell. I hope to hear from you again soon after a successful mission.

*Leans into Venus' kiss, listening to his boss.*
Does this mean she will be working along side me?

*He nods.*
You are a team.
Good luck

Thank you, sir.
*Zero knew that he was going to end up working next to Venus. He slips his hand into hers, glancing down at her.*
Ready, love?

*nods at The man and lightly takes his hand.*
I'll make sure to report to you sir.
*She squeezed Zeros hand and nodded.*
Yes, Im ready.

*Opens the door for her, following her out of the office. Well that didn't go his way at all. How is going to keep his eyes on her, and not go nuts when she's standing before The Dark Lord?*
*He closes the door behind them, and turns to face her.*
Venus I have a stop to make here in the Ministry. Do you wish to come with me?
*Raises their intertwined hands, stroking her cheek with the back of his.*
