"I still can't believe you thought I destroyed half the camp.", Hecate chuckled as she and Percy walked down the ministry of magic to the department of magical law enforcement of the DMLE. Today was the 27th, two days after the quidditch finals. Percy had finally been summoned in order to register as an animagus.

"I'm sorry but the last time you got drunk you turned the living room into a bed of sunflowers," Percy said with a shrug, "Can you really blame me?", Percy walked briskly, wearing his navy blue robes with his father's trident stitched on his sleeves and chest like it was a crest, which it was.

"Hey! I'll have you know I haven't gotten drunk in over three months!" Hecate called back.

"That doesn't make me think any less of you," Percy shivered. Percy turned serious, "These death eaters, why didn't you stop them?"

Hecate raised an eyebrow, "I can't get involved with humans Percy, you know that."

"What about Harry?"

"I just talk to Harry, Percy, I don't actually do anything to improve or ruin the way his life progresses. I'm not involving myself in such a way that it would change his life."

"Other than flirting with him, you mean."

"He does turn a shade of red quite similar to a pomegranate juice," Hecate giggled, "but yes, flirting is perfectly allowed because as you know Gods can in fact mate with mortals."

"Is this your way of telling me you want to screw Harry? Because I don't know how I feel about that," Percy shivered.

"Hey! You have no right to judge me Mr. 'I slept with five veelas at the same time'. By the way, have I ever congratulated you for that? It really is an achievement you know. Not many have the stamina to keep up with one, let alone five. I should get you an award for that one. Really! Demigod stamina is a gift!"

Percy blushed red as he remembered the night he had with the 5 Veelas. He had corresponded with Chanel and Amanda through letters a few times. He had hoped that he could talk to them all again, he had really enjoyed their company, especially Chanel. He needed friends, and weirdly so, he had found them in the Veelas.

"R-right," Percy coughed trying to hide his embarrassment.

"Have any of them kept in touch?"

"Chanel does," Percy replied, "and Amanda as well. Catherine promised to write but hasn't yet. Ebele and Ula, well, I don't really know."

"If you are going to have a social life now, we should probably get you an owl soon. You can't expect to keep using the owl they messaged you with, you would never be able to message them first! And girls hate that sort of thing Percy, just saying."

"R-right," Percy stammered as Hecate laughed at his expense.

They entered the lift and got off at level 2. The hallway was crowded with people dressed in red robes running around in a hurry. They were aurors, the police of the magical world and from the looks of things they all had their hands full.

"Why are they so on edge?" Percy asked as he saw a few aurors shoot him suspicious looks.

"It's because of the death eater attack," Hecate explained, "They are worried that it might be a sign that Voldemort has come back, especially since his symbol was found floating above the woods."

"You mean that skull with the snake?" Percy asked as he remembered seeing the remnants of the image a little while after he and the others had woken up.

"Yes, they are currently trying to find out why this happened in the first place. If it was just for shits and giggles or if it is a sign of something far more dangerous to come," Hecate led Percy down the corridor to a large, mahogany double door that lead to a large room resembling a police precinct.
