They walked around the huge room filled with vaults of all wizarding citizens.

"They all belong to Norwegians?" Kennilworthy asked looking all around.

"Yep, you get a vault when you are young, if your parents get one for you." Aurora explained. "You have Gringotts, Norway has a department for vaults." she said turning down an aisle.

"I'm guessing you don't have one?" Kennilworthy asked.

"I didn't want to get one when I came to Norway." Aurora said looking down more aisles. "All these vaults are too small to hold an adult dragon." she said changing the subject.

"How do you know its an adult?" Kennilworthy asked curiously.

"I've heard it when I was here "working" late." she said. "I tried getting in but the aurors seem to hide the key."

They looked down a few more aisles before reaching the end of the long hall, finding a much bigger vault than the rest.

"I'm pretty its this one." Kennilworthy said looking at her.

Aurora was in shock by the vault's size and quickly turned to Kennilworthy.

"Of course, this is the Minister's vault, and the only person who can get away with something this big." she broke into a smile. "Still got the key?" she asked.

"Yep." he said taking the key out of his jacket.

Kennilworthy put the key into the lock and twisted the key.

"Seems like its jammed." Kennilworthy struggled.

Aurora took out her wand and pointed it at the lock with the key in it.

"Alohomora." she said.

The lock still didn't open and the key remained jammed in.

"Hmm." Aurora said walking close by the vault door and taking out her notebook.

She flipped through the notebook until she landed on a page about Hungarian Horntails.

"From my investigation, a Hungarian Horntail is in there, and if we can't get in." Aurora said. "I'll just-."

Aurora roared by the door.

Kennilworthy looked around to see if anyone was coming.

A few seconds later, an even louder roar came from the vault shaking the ground.

"Bingo." Aurora said closing her notebook.

"Who do we go to now?" Kennilworthy asked turning back to her.

"We either expose the Minister or go to Durmstrang to see the headmaster." Aurora said thinking.

"I think we only have one choice." Kennilworthy said turning around to see groups of aurors apparating into the department surrounding them.

Kennilworthy and Aurora both put their hands behind their heads and two aurors apparated them to a cell.

"You'll be hearing from the Minister in a few moments." one said in a heavy Norwegian accent.

They watched as the two aurors left the room and they were left alone.

"Its fine, we'll expose him when we get the hear-"

"No, you don't understand." Aurora said cutting him off. "He knows who I am, he could start rumors about dragonologists and magizoologists. Dragons and magical creatures could be killed because of me." Aurora said paranoid.

"We'll figure something out." Kennilworthy said. "Anyways you have the proof there is a dragon in there." he looked at her.

Aurora looked at him.
