From Two Different Worlds *Fred Weasley Love Story*

Skirmish At The Ministry

**All characters in the Harry Potter series go to J. K. Rowling. The Masons, Jake Ryder, and Amanda Wills are all mine :)**

Skirmish at the Ministry-

"Maddie! Maddie! Wake up! Kreacher's back!" Ron hissed. I woke up and followed him. Kreacher has been gone for a week, leaving all of us here.

"You're a thief Dung, everyone knows it." Ron stated.

"Master Weasley! How good it is to see you again!" A squeaky voice said. Two house-elves were on the table, one was Kreacher, the other probably Dobby.

"Listen! I panicked that night, alright! Can I help it, that Mad-Eye fell off his broom?" He spat. Kreacher prodded him and Hermione stepped towards him.

"Tell the truth." She said menacingly.

"When you came that night, you found a locket, am I right?" Harry hissed.

"Why? Was it vaulable?" Dung asked. They continued talking, each threatening the other.

"So where is it?" I finally asked.

"There I was, flogging down Diagon Alley, when some Ministry Aid asked to see my license. Says she didn't wanna lock me up. She would have done too, but she seemed really interested in that locket.-"

"Who was it? The witch?" Harry asked.

"No I-" He did a double take whilst looking at the Daily Prophet sitting on the ground. "Well she's there. Look!" He said, picking up the paper, He showed us the paper and I froze. On the cover was the one and only, Dolores Umbridge.

"We need to get into the Ministry, soon." Harry said.

"You're barkin!" I spat.

"We need that locket.. Hermione I think it's time to get out your cauldron. We need some polyjuice potion." Harry replied.

"Doesn't that take over a month to make?" Ron asked.

"Like Hermione said second year, it's the only plan we've got." Harry replied.

"Do I have to go? I mean, I read the Daily Prophet the other day, Harry is Undesirable No. 1, and I'm close behind at Undesirable No. 2! I'd rather-"

"Maddie, we need you. You know more about Horcruxes than anyone else here and we need your guidance. " Hermione said. I was not keen on going to the Ministry, I was Undesirable No. 2! But this seemed really important to them..

"Fine." I hissed. "But who do I get to be disguised as? You're going to be Mafalda Hopkirk, Harry's going to be Albert Runcorn and Ron's going to be Reginald Cattermole."

"You will be Allison Mather of the Department of Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures, Spirit Division." Hermione stated. I gave her a look and then smiled.

"Wake me if you need anything." I said, before retreating to the couch.

**************************************************

"Are you sure this is going to work?" I asked. I looked at the Trio who were under Polyjuice Potion.

"Yes, now come on!" Harry said nervously. Hermione and I parted ways with Harry and Ron as we entered the Ministry. The Ministry was quite beautiful, all except the statue of Muggles in the center fountain.

"Is that-"

"Muggles.. In there, rightful place.." Hermione/Mafalda said.

"Her- Mafalda, where do I go?" I asked.

"Your office is right over there." She replied, pointing at a small office in the corner of the large room. I nodded and made my way over. "Err.. Alohamora."  The door opened and the lights turned on. I sat down at the desk and looked through the papers.
