Mission

The headmaster called Lupin and Wilson up to his office. He had a mission for his two good employees. A dangerous one, but these two didn't really care about the dangers as far as Shacklebolt knew. Expecially the later. And the first... Well, you got the point.

Wilson approached the Gargoyle. ''You know me, chap.'', he said and flicked his arm and the Gargoyle opened. he had forgotten the password. He approached the door. Knocked once, just to prepare him for his arrival and entered. ''Kingsley, my dear chap, I understand you wanted to talk to me?'', he asked.

Khaat had been summoned to Shacklebolt's office. She was always glad to aid him in whatever he needed. She wasn't sure what she was here for, but she came ready for anything. Today, she had thrown her full length black wool cloak over her to keep her warm against the bitter winter cold, and it covered her black jeans and black ankle boots, and her black turtleneck.

She stood outside the entrance to the office and stood for a moment, pretending to glare at the gargoyle to be sure she wasn't seen. Then she uttered the password and went up to the headmaster's office. She knocked politely and then entered.

She was surprised to see Professor Wilson there. "Hello, again, Professor Wilson. I presume we're here for the same purpose?" She looked at Shacklebolt and thought she saw great stress upon him. "How can I help, Headmaster?" she asked.

"Of course I wanted to talk to you Wilson, or else I wouldn't have called you up to my office," Shacklebolt responded with a chuckle. After Wilson, Khaat came in as well, good. They were quite fast. "Yes you are here for the same purpose, and I'll explain why soon, but first, do you two know each other?" he asked, they should, they were both professors, but if not, they should get to know each other.

"I've had the priviledge only momentarily," Khaat said. "It's a pleasure to see you again, Professor Wilson. You see, Headmaster, I was able to at least introduce myself to the professor when you hired me on, but we have not had the opportunity to work together."

"Oh good then," Shacklebolt said, at least they knew each other. "So you probably want to know why I called you both up here?" he said, well of course they wanted to know. "Well, last time I met both of you I explained about recent kidnappings. I met Jess Potter and he believes that the Death Eaters have a camp in the forbidden forest where they are holding some students. Its deep down in the forest, where outsiders can apparate in. I would like you too to investigate, but don't do anything stupid." he added, he didn't want them to try to be heroes and rescue the students, that would come in time. He didn't want to lose two good teachers.

Wilson looked at Kingsley with bewilderment. Wasn't he clear on their last meeting that he was going to operate inside the school? ''Kingsley, and what are the Order member that are outside going to do?'', he asked.

"They are going to lead a full scale assault soon, which is not good," Kinglsey explained. "They haven't planned, and if you fail to plan, you plan to fail. I don't want a full scale assault on their encampment yet, I want to know whats going on."

(actually wait, I think Wilson will have to do something else, as Lucius wants just one person to investigate)

''Well... I will accept that mission if truly necessary, but I thought we have discussed that I am not going to travel much outside the castle, especially in the DE HQ?'', Wilson said.

(That seems more likely... Wilson said that he would lead from inside the castle. But I look forward to a different mission)

"Hmm..." Kingsley said, thinking. James was right about that. "Fine then, Khaat will go alone, or with someone of the order that I trust.. You meanwhile, should meet with the auror, Vincent Majere," he said. Kingsley had told him to do this before, but he wasn't sure if he had done it.
