Sonia nodded. At least elrohir seemed to be comprehending that she was out of her element. . .by far, she was in the anti of her element. As they reached Maik's office Sonia had seemed to relax a little.

Elrohir knocked cautously on the door, but there was no answer. Verrry quietly he opened the door and peeked inside. Maik was sprawled on a huge leather couch seemingly fast asleep. He couldn't tell though, since she was still wearing her robes from the previous night, her hood pulled over her face

Sonia felt a chill slip up her spine. She shivered. Looking up at Elrohir with watery blue eyes, she needed to get into a secluded place. She knew if Fudge or any of the other aurors saw her and recognized her, hell would be raised.

"Are you sure you're ok?" Elrohir asked her, sounding concerned. He glanced back at Maik to see if she had awakened, but thankfully, it didn't appear that she had.

"C...Can we go in? and shut the door?" Sonia said urgently.

Elrohir nodded, shut the door, and then began walking very slowly over to the couch holding a cup of coffee

Sonia stoood in the corner. She watched him approach Maik carefully. she begin to slump into a sitting position and waited for Maik to wake up. she knew that she could waik up calmly or wake up aout to ring Elrohir's neck.

SLowly and carfully Elrohir finally reached the couch and waved the coffee under Maik's nose. "Maiiiiik! You awake?" He said softly

Sonia braced herself just in case. By that time the door slung open revealing Fudge. he didn't look happy ut didn't notice Sonia sitting in the shadowed corner.

Elrohir whirlled around, spilling coffee on Maik and waking her up. " Uh oh." Maik bolted upright and began swearing in every language from latin to japanese VERY loudly

Fudge surpressed a look of concern. "Morning,suppose you haven't heard from the girl? Don't lie to me, please. i know she is here."

Maik whirlled on Fudge and shoved her robes at him accusingly. " Look what you did!! And as for "the girl" I'm really not sure what you're talking about."

"The girl who was questioned, the girl whose parents were killed because they murdered an Auror, the girl who disappeared before we could retain her into our custody." Fudge fumed.

sonia froze. Her parents murdered an auror? never, they would never do that.

"oh! THAT girl! why didn't you say so?" Maik said sarcasticly "I'm sure once i actually DRINK my coffee i'll remember."

SOnia whimpered in the corner. she was so scarred. What more could happen. she didn't want to be sent away. her new foster family would probably tranfer her to the snobbish french school.

"Mr. Fudge, would you kindly leave my office so that i can put on DRY clothes, sir?" Maik asked grumpily. she did NOT approve of being awakened in this fashion. also, she wanted to get him away from Sonia

Fudge gave a small growl before leaving slamming the door behind him. Once he was gone, Sonia hugged her knees and his her head sobing openly.

Maik turned and crouched in front of Sonia, her expression unreadable. "You ok?" she asked quietly.

Sonia bit her lip. She was trying to control the hatred she felt for the man who had just left. "My parents would have never done anything like that. Not since they were caught when Mr. Potter was born."

" Mr. James Potter? Wait, what do you mean, "caught"? " Maik asked watching Sonia closly. She obviously knew nothing of Sonia's parents, or who and what they were.
