Luna thought back to the last time she'd visited Hogwarts. It truly had been a long time...
"I remember you saying that Hogwarts wasn't for you... Is that what you're referring to?"

*shakes her head*
No. That somtimes the places where you are supposed to be are where you don't belong. That everyone likes it, but you don't. And you can't understand why. Luna, please, just don't make this a big commotion. It's not that amazingly horrible...

Luna shrugged.
"I suppose, but you're my friend, and I wouldn't want you to get hurt."
She sighed sadly, then plucked Sirius from the table and gently put him in her pocket.
"I'll be going, then."
Luna smiled slightly, then got up and floated out of the Hog's Head.

*rolls her eyes and mutters to herself*
You're my friend Luna. I want you to be safe, but I'm not telling you to go back to Hogwarts...
*goes over to the bar, takes a seat and orders herself a butterbeer, taking a sip after recieving and paying for the order*
*wishes she had someone to talk to*

*Enters, clutching a note*
Finally, maybe her mum has some answers...
*takes a seat, not wanting to be noticed*

*Clutching a pink fluffy handbag Dolores Umbridge walks into the Hog's Head with the chin of her toad-like face held high. She spots Luna, and walks over to her on her way to order a cup of tea.*
Luna, sweetheart! I trust you've been taking good care of my old kitten-plates!
*She gives her a sugary smile, and looks over at Luna's friend.*
And who's this young lady? I seem to remember your face from somewhere... have I seen you before, dear?
*She looks at Anna seemingly turning her brains out to remember where she's seen her before.*

*looks at Professor Umbridge*
Oh. Hello. *manages a smile, glad at least for someone to brighten things up a bit*
I'm Anna Bellacoure. I was in Hogwarts when you... taught there.

*Dolores' eyes, having been narrow from thinking, go wider as another sugar-coated smile spreads on her face.*
Ah, yes of course. You must forgive me, it is an awful lot of faces to remember, you know.
*She still did has the feeling that she has seen the girl elsewhere, though, and suddenly she seems to have a eureka-moment. A small feminine gasp falls out from her lips.*
You were at the trial of that Croatian chap, were you not? *Her toad-face gleams expectantly at Anna.*

*slips off her stool and holds out her hand to Dolores*
Yes. Yes, I was there. I'm sort of working for the Witch Weekly at the moment. Well, just doing a few things here and there, nothing important.
*wonders whether to continue the conversation further*

*Seems pleased to have her assumptions confirmed and shakes Anna's hand politely.*
I see! I always read the recipes' section! Dolores Umbridge. Very pleased to meet you!
*She smiles pleasantly at her.*
Well, you really must have me excused. I just popped by for a quick cup of tea, but I see now, that will have to wait for later, as I spent my precious time chatting with you little darlings! *She makes a girlish giggle accompanied by a very girlish head-movement*
Until we meet again then, ...? *She trails off expecting Anna to announce her name.*

*Smiles contently at the reminder, ever so slightly embarassed about having forgotten the young lady's name so quickly, and hopes she didn't notice.*
I'm heading back to London with portkey, so if you're headed that way, please, feel free to join me.
*Hoping it will take Anna's attention away from her little blunder.*

Very well, then. 'Till next time! Tudle-du! *SHe gives her one of those twinkly-finger-waves, and trots out of the Hog's Head.*

*glowers, having read the note about her best friend's absence from Hogwarts.*
This is ridiculus. What a horrible excuse not to come back!
*Crumples note, realizing she better buy something if she wants to stay longer*
