Lea was currently sitting outside of the office of a person she disliked and in the one place, she had no desire to be. Lea had received a letter from the new co-head of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement Oscar Wilder. As much as she had no desire to deal with the man she had no choice. He was the one who was going to oversee Lea's father's case. Seeing as the Snape family was already as thin ice as her father Severus Snape was a former death eater with his outcome yet to be held. Even after it was revealed he was a triple agent. Lea was unsure what they might do so despite her dislike for the Ministry she came in. On the good point at least it gave her an excuse to see Hermione. Someone she had yet to see with all of the work Lea had been doing, so she could become the next Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher. Lea had been wondering why she was called in when finally Oscar Wilder poked his head out and turned to her.
"Miss. Snape you may come in now."

Lea got up and walked in her arms crossed. She had been tempted to eye roll at the man, but she couldn't. After all, he was Hermione's co-worker and still the one in charge of her father's case. So she held it in despite her distaste for the man. Oscar while not corrupt was very intent on getting his way and from what Lea heard will be willing to do just about anything to get it. Lea walked into his office and took a seat in the chair in front of his desk. "You called me in here for what may I ask?"

"Not even a hello or how are you doing?"

"You should know better than that Wilder."

"I do, but for all you know I could've called you in so we could get some small talk."

"We both know that's not why you called me in here. Now cut to the chase."

"Fine, now as you know since the second war we have been trying to sort out what to do with the remaining death eaters. Some cases got a less harsh hearing while some got a more in-depth hearing."

"Clearly now what does this have to do with me?"

"Well it seems on of our cases has yet to come in, yet."

"Again what does this have to do with me?"

"It has to do with you because this case has to do with both your father's and his own," Oscar said. It was at this moment without Oscar saying another word she knew that the person was Draco. His parent's cases and his uncles had already been settled. Once Oscar could see it clicked he continued. "Now seeing as this case happened to be close with you I thought you might be able to find him."

"Oh and why me?"

"Well, every other of Mr. Malfoy's contacts either would fail to bring him back or someone he hates. This leaves you as the only choice to get him."

"Why do you think that? Surely you know what became of our closeness."

"Yes, Miss. Granger has already informed me of that matter. But seeing as none of his other contacts have really panned out you are our only choice."

"I see, but why would I help you of all people?"

At this Oscar let out a smile that reminded Lea that he had once been in Slytherin like she had been. "Well seeing as Kingsley can't be involved with your father's case due to potential bias. If you were to do this favor for the Ministry we can see to it that your father's case is quickly dismissed along with Mr. Malfoy's should you want it."

"Oh, and how would you do that?"

"Well, I could see if I could get people to see the truth without the necessity of a hearing which we all know the outcome of. Unless you want to be involved in another case such as Lucius and Narissa Malfoy. Where you have to sit for hours as it is drawn out far longer than it needs to be."
