"Who are you and why did you apparate into my office?" The woman said getting up.

Kennilworthy looked at her and before he could open his mouth, the woman continued talking.

"Of course, they've become suspicious." she said walking around the office. "They're catching on."

Kennilworthy watched her walk around the office confusingly.

"Well, I'm Kennilworthy Whisp, just a traveler." he said. "Um, may I ask where am I?"

The woman stopped and looked at him.

"Norwegian Ministry of Magic, 1949." she said.

"Perfect." he responded. "Why were you hiding those papers?" he pointed to her desk. "You thought I was with the Ministry?"

"Judging by your accent, you're not from Norway, but what makes this stranger is that you didn't know where you were." she said walking back to her desk. "What's with the giant snitch in your hand?" she turned around pointing to the snitch.

"Uh- um- well-." Kennilworthy looked at her. "I'll tell you, if you tell me what's with the hiding." he said. "And what's your name?"

The woman thought for a minute than answered.

"Aurora Nowak, Beasts Divination, well that's my cover-up, I'm actually a dragonologist ." she said. "With the papers, I believe the Ministry has an enslaved dragon here and I need to find it, so what's with you?" she looked at him.

"Quidditch expert, and time-traveler, no its not silly, I built this snitch during my time at Hogwarts." he said putting the snitch away. "I'm writing a book about quidditch past and the differences from other countries."

Kennilworthy stopped and looked at Aurora.

"I can't believe I just told someone I just met all of that." he said.

"I'm thinking the same think." she said looking back at him. "Well, if you help me find this dragon, I'm sure I could supply you with some quidditch knowledge from Norway."

Kennilworthy stood there thinking a few moments before shaking Aurora's hand.

"You got yourself a deal." he said smiling.

"Perfect." she said taking out papers from her desk. "This is the map of the whole Ministry of Magic here in Norway." she said laying out a huge map.

"This is where I believe the dragon is located." she said pointing at the lowest floor of the Ministry. "The Department of Vaults."

"Seems easy, why didn't you do this before?" Kennilworthy asked.

"You see, the door there is locked." Aurora said. "And only aurors have the key to get inside."

"Hmm." Kennilworthy thought for a moment.

He looked at the map trying to figure a way to the Department of Vaults.

"Ah ha." Kennilworthy said finally looking back up at Aurora.

"You thought of something?" she said looking at him.

"Okay, so first we need to lure an auror into the office, I can ask for directions." he explained. "Then you come out from under your desk when the auror comes in and stupefy them."

Aurora looked at him like he was crazy.

"Then we hide the body under the desk." Kennilworthy said. "Tie them up when they wake up."

"That's sounds absolutely insane." Aurora said. "Let's do it." she smiled going under her desk.

Kennilworthy smiled and ran out the door to find an auror.
