[Hogwarts Between] Wondering Around the Ministry of Magic (Heath)

[Brandon Klutzke]

Heath quickly left with Berry. That look, it was only there for the
briefest of moments, but he knew that he hadn't been making it up. The
image was way to clear, everything from the glint in the eyes to
slight curvature of Professor Giles's mouth, all in perfect clearness
like that of a picture. The suddenly stern, but kind Professor Giles
was replaced by some one a lot more sinister. Heath didn't know what
it meant, but that look definitely made him ill at ease. Inspiration
hit Heath, "So, what's Professor Giles like?" asked Heath is a purely
conversational tone, or so he hoped. If Heath knew anything about
servants it was that they liked to gossip about everything, but mostly
their masters. Reading all those detective novels where about to pay
 off, right?

> Although the Ministry Halls were getting less familiar than becoming more so, Heath was not unnerved. He half expected to have to walk through a lake to get back to where his parents are. Meanwhile Berry continued to prattle on and on about how nice her master was. Heath on the other hand didn't like anyone who forced their servants, no matter the species, race, sub-race, or what ever Berry was, to wear flour bags. As for berrylicious finger nail polish, it was all Heath could do to keep from gagging. "I swear if I ever see a whole bottle of of that nail polish I think I'm going to loose my lunch." thought Heath, "My breakfast and my dinner too for that matter." Looking around Heath asks, "Uh, Berry, are you sure you know where we're going?" Some how while Heath was off in his own thoughts Berry had led him to a very dark very small room. If Heath didn't know better he would swear they were in somebody's closet.
