The Great Hall

[Misty]

"Wait, is Reina her real name? Why do you keep trying to say something different? Unless you're really delivering something to her mom or her aunt."

[Mimi]

"Yes sir!" He bowed with every word. "Reina is her real name... I think..." He paused confusedly. "She has so many!"
At this point, Reina walked out of the bathroom and stared at the end. "Bobby? I see that you've met Albus." She shot him a wary glance. "You're lucky that I trust you, Bobbs. We wouldn't like any unnecessary info going out, would we, Albus?" She took the package, and with a pop! Bobby disappeared.

[Misty]

Albus crossed his arms and looked at Reina, raising an eyebrow. "Care to explain why you had a house elf deliver a package instead of an owl? And why did he say that you had multiple names?"

[Mimi]

Reina glared at where the house elf had stood. "Technically, my mom sent Bobby. Not me. And Bobby..." She gave a nervous laugh. "He's always saying things, you know. I'm Reina, plain and simple. Just Reina."

[Misty]

Albus stayed as he was, doubting whether he should believe her. "Uh huh." he said blankly. "Just one thing. House elves are incapable of lying, I checked." His stance and gaze both softened as he held her hands. "Reina....just tell me the truth. I won't tell anyone, you can trust me. We need to be honest with each other. I'm not keeping any secrets from you and I need to be able to trust you. Please."

[Mimi]

Reina pleaded with him. "Albus, please. If it was up to me, I'd totally tell you. But then a whole company, a whole working system would be failed, my whole family would be kicked to the streets or even killed unless I have permission to tell a trusted friend or spouse."

[Misty]

Albus sighed. "Fine. But I just hope that sometime in the future, you'll trust me enough to tell me. So, what did your mom say about spending the holidays with me?" he asked as they started walking back to the Great Hall.

[Mimi]

"It's not my decision!" Reina protested one more time. "Anyway, I have to sigh a whole bunch of papers. I mean, if I watch people for a living, I need to sign papers to take a break." Her eyes warned him to take in the details of her conversation and say nothing. "Listening to Russian people in the summer? So tiring! But if they're doing something bad, it's Miss Fox to the rescue."

[Misty]

He chuckled. "Okay, Wonder Girl. Let's just get back before your aunt or any other teachers put us in Detention for skipping the event." He led her back to the Great Hall and danced with her for the rest of the event, no matter what the song was.

[Mimi]

(Erm...) After the next few songs, Reina pulled him to the side, laughing. She poured another butterbeer for herself. "This has been the best dance, Albus."

[Misty]

Albus smiled. "I'm glad you think that. Even with the awful start to the Dance, Rikku giving me a love potion and all that..." Not wanting to put a damper on the mood, he tried changing the subject. "How are you liking your classes so far? I know my sister is enjoying those new Astronomy night classes, they're all she talks about these days."

[Mimi]

She glared at him as he started on reasons the dance was terrible, and he seemed to pick up the hint that he was not helping his forgiveness. However, then he started on her least favorite subject. "Astronomy is horrible." Reina objected. "I don't like it all that much."

[Misty]

"Mine either. I like Herbology and Potions better. My dad even taught me some of the tricks from Snape's old book that he used. Not any of the bad ones, but just some useful tips so I don't get on the Headmistress's bad side. What about you?"

[Mimi]

"Potions and Dark Arts." Reina said immediately. "Those are my best subjects, and my father taught me well, also." Just then, she checked her watch, which had begun to... Buzz? Eyes widening, she jumped into a supply closet and pushed the watch's button, and the clock opened to reveal a figure (Like an Iris-message) standing there. "Mad dog?" She asked seriously. "What's wrong? I'm at school!" 'Do you have a lead yet?' The boy's figure asked. "Well yeah." Reina replied. "Shay Crabbe is my target... A fifth year Ravenclaw. She has the DNA description." 'Good work, Fox.' The teenager replied. 'I'm barely nineteen, so I can pass for an adult. Where does the relative work?' "The Three Broomsticks. Oh, Mad dog... Be careful. Please." Reina murmured affectionately, trying to stroke his cheek. Moments later, the figure melted away, and Reina closed her watch, stepping out of e closet as if nothing had happened. Then she turned to Albus, who had waited outside. "You could have been seen!" She hissed. "If he had seen you, he'd be furious!"

[Misty]

Albus put his hands up in defense. "Sorry, I was just keeping guard. I saw Rikku talking to some other Slytherin kids as you ran out. They looked suspicious. I don't want her getting any more ideas for revenge, or any other Slytherin kids for that matter." The way she had been talking to that guy, though. Either he was her brother or a really close friend. But something about him made Albus uneasy, as if the guy was hiding his true identity. But he didn't want any more scolding from Reina, so he didn't bring it up.
