I walked down the corridor towards Umbridge's office at 5:30pm sharp. I knocked gently on the door twice and she answered, smiling and ushering me to a seat. I walked inside and sat opposite her and next to Professor Flitwick. He smiled and I took a seat.
"Miss Lovegood. I've heard you've been interested in Divination and Astronomy, I suspect." She spoke. I nodded.
"Perhaps. You could become a seer or..." She offered. I smiled.
"Professor, can I possibly work at this school as a professor?" I asked, looking at her, then to him. She nodded and poured sugar into her tea.
"And what makes you think of that?" She asked.
"Well, I love divination and I'm passionate for teaching my skills to those who enjoy it as well." I spoke. She nodded.
I looked over at Professor Flitwick and he nodded.
"I'm sure you'll be a great professor. Your bright and have a keen art for teaching and learning others. I heard you're helping Neville with his essays, am I right" Flitwick spoke. I nodded. Tut tut. Umbridge interrupted. I looked over at her and stared at her blankly.
"Do you wish to work for the other schools perhaps? Like Beauxabatons or Illvermory?" She asked. I nodded.
"I always considered Illvermory, perhaps I could offer there. But I'm more comfortable staying here  where I could be with my family." I spoke. She nodded.
"And your family can't move elsewhere?" She asked. I shook my head.
"My father dedicated his life to the Quibbler and he is still passionate for finding the Crumble Horned Snorshack. I heard that he'd come across it when he was walking in the meadow." I spoke. She looked at me, confused. I smiled. "And Luna mad I love going to the stream hear out house to look for plimpys and pickleworts to make picklewort soup." I spoke. She nodded.
"So, is Luna moving away though? I'm sure she'll find someplace to start her career as a... What does she want to me, may I ask?" She spoke. I smiled.
"She wishes to be a magizoologist and the chief editor of the Quibbler" I spoke. She nodded.
"Is the Quibbler going well, though?" She questioned. I nodded.
"We've had lots of readers since we interviewed Harry about you-know-who's return. Also the comment page are exceptional. We write spells upside down on the magazine and we write about a issue every week. Perhaps I should give you a copy. My father would love if you could inform us of anything you might find interesting" I spoke. She glanced at me blankly.
"No, I'm not a reader of your weird magazine, but I'm sure your father could always quit his job. The Quibbler isn't very popular. It's weird"
"My father is doing a brilliant job" I interrupted.
"As you say" she spoke.
"I have studying to do, professors." I spoke, standing up. "Have a good day" I finished and walked out the door.

I arrived at the DA meeting a little late that evening and I walked in, spotting Cho casting her patronus. I walked next to Luna and smiled. Hermione walked over, seeing her otter patronus swim around the area chased after Ron's jack Russell terrier. I smiled.
"So, do I have to think of the happiest memory and let it fill me up"I spoke. She nodded.
"Something that makes you smile from the inside out" she spoke. I nodded and took out my wand. I thought of the day Luna gave me the photo album. I spoke expecto patronum and a barn owl emerged from my wand and soared around the room. I smiled and watched it run fast, around the room. Luna looked at me and smiled as I looked at her, then to Harry who was walking over.
"Congratulations Cass" he spoke and looked at Luna.
"Luna" Harry ushered, as Luna took out her wand. Expecto Patronum she spoke and a hare appeared, bouncing around the sky, my owl following it. She smiled but stopped as her patronus vanished. The whole room was shaking and we moved behind Harry. The room blasted and Harry walked forward, seeing who made the hole. He stood back as the wall exploded revealing Draco, Crabble, Goyle, Filch and Umbridge holding Cho. I gasped and she looked at me, then to Harry. I looked at Cho, disappointed but I read her mind. She was crying in the inside. I could see her memories of Umbridge using vertasium on her. I shook my head. It was bad enough having Marietta Edgecombe suffering with sneak written in her face. She grabbed Harry and I, dragging us to Professor Dumbledore's office. 

"I knew you were up to something behind the ministry's back, Albus." Umbridge spoke next to Fudge, the Minister of Magic.
"Now I have proof." She spoke.
"You got me Dolores" he spoke, but looked at me. "But may I ask. How did you find out?"
"It's obvious!" I interrupted. "You used vertasium on her. Didn't you? ...." I spat. Harry looked at Cho, shocked. Umbridge was horrified.
"Who told you?" She spoke.
"I found out myself" I spoke, smiling. She squeezed me hard and looked at me in the eye.
"I always knew there was one thing off about you, Cassentina-Rose. You're not ordinary" she spoke, curious but annoyed.
"Isn't everyone a bit different?" I asked, smiling. She glanced at me, shedding a small smile.
"I suspected something was up when you never go to the dining hall at all. Having to go to the hospital wing often and don't you think I know that you are wearing a glamour. Didn't you think I know that you can read and control minds" She spat. I was wielded up in fury and dropped my glamour.
"Say it, bitch." I spat. "Say it to my face." I yelled.
"Say what?" Fudge spoke. I looked at Harry, then to Cho and smiled, dropping my whole glamour.
"You've just met the head vampire" I spoke and clicked my fingers, wiping Cho's, Umbridge and Fudge's memories. I placed ,y glamour back on and looked at Harry and Dumbledore.
"Best to keep this quiet or I'll wipe your's clean" I finished and walked out.

"What just happened?" Cho asked, looking at Umbridge and Fudge. They looked at Harry and Dumbledore.
"Are you alright Cornelies? You look like you saw a ghost" Dumbledore spoke.
"I'm fine thank you." He spoke. "But your punishment is obvious. You will be banished to Azkaban" Fudge spat.
"But it was all my idea" Harry spoke.
"Harry, it clearly says Dumbledore's army. Not Harry's" Dumbledore spoke. Umbridge smiled, but Dumbledore winked at Harry and he disaparated with his Phoenix.
