The next chapter is up as promised - it's Sunday here, but Saturday everywhere else, I think, so I'm sorry about that - I keep forgetting to factor time differences into things...
Here's a quick peek:
“Bye, Mum!” she
called. She got a sleepy reply from her parents’ bedroom - Dad had already left
but Mum probably wouldn’t be up for another hour - and then, pausing only to check
her appearance in the hallway mirror, tossed Floo Powder into the fireplace and
said, “Ministry of Magic!”
The flames began to
clear and then she stopped moving altogether. Tonks stepped out, tripped on her
hem and fell flat on her face in the Ministry atrium. A brilliant start to the day, she thought, dazedly, letting a twitchy
little wizard help her off the polished wood floor.
“Thank you,” Tonks
said, staring around. She’d been to the Ministry several times but it felt
different coming as an adult and not a little girl clutching her father’s hand.
“Not a problem,
dear,” the little wizard said. He flashed a badge at the witch at the security
stand and she nodded and waved him through.
“What can I do for
you?” the witch asked, spotting Tonks.
“I’m an Auror
trainee,” she said, pulling her acceptance letter out of her rucksack.
Enjoy the new chapter! :D
