Order Only: Sarah's Escape
Apr. 19th, 2013 10:42 pmAll right, everyone. Here’s what happened:
Umbridge has been using Megan Jones as a little toady and errand girl only she’s been hexing her horribly over things that aren’t even her fault. And sometime this morning she must have cursed Megan so her hands would cramp, only it was a Dark spell and it starting slowly making all her muscles contract and spasm, so we had some discussion and decided that really, it didn’t matter if she were collaborating with Madam Umbridge, we needed to offer to help her. So we sent a message out on our coins and Sarah offered to hide the potion for Megan, so she could get it but wouldn’t be able to get us in trouble for it.
Only Megan found the potion and then instead of taking it, she stayed there to see if the person who put it there came back. And when Sarah did come back, Megan jumped out and grabbed her and screamed "you can't trap me, I'm loyal!" and they started to row, and I guess then Patil alerted Madam Umbridge and she came along and took them to her office. And the next thing we knew Sarah had put her emergency failsafe coin activation, so we all went on alert.
I think Madam Umbridge must have used the Cruciatus curse on her.
Harry made everyone create diversions and distractions while we came up with a plan to get Sarah away from Madam Umbridge, that’s when Fred & George set off the dragon firework. Madam Umbridge went to see and wound up being chased under a table. Meanwhile, Ron, Sally-Anne, Pansy and--and Draco Malfoy--met Harry at a spot near Umbridge's office waited for her to leave. Then they went and got Sarah. And you’ll probably not believe this but Draco had a plan, so Sally-Anne and Sarah switched their robes and we made Sally-Anne look like Sarah and Harry loaned her his invisibility cloak, and then Ron and Pansy took Sarah to the Shrieking Shack (and yes we know how to get there) and Sally-Anne and Draco pretended that he was chasing Sarah (Sally-Anne in disguise) out of the castle and the others on the Galleon got as many people to see as possible. You know that Ron and Pansy brought her to Doughty Conduit.
Once she was outside, Sally-Anne slipped under the invisibility cloak, left some robe bits and pieces and some blood from an animal, and ran back to the castle.
And that’s it, really. The Galleoneers helped each other come up with alibis, and Justin and Hydra have collected Megan to get her to the Healer and it's all settling back down now.
Oh, Harry destroyed Umbridge’s Floo.
Oh, and also, Draco Malfoy knows about the Institute.

Hello, Sirius, I hope you had a good birthday yesterday.
Harry was happy to see you on Saturday, but it made him a little sad, too, because he wishes it could be more normal, by which he means that it weren't such a huge risk for you and that you had more time and could just talk about ordinary things instead of only having time for the important things.
And I got to thinking that sometimes when he's home at the holidays, it's a little easier for him to slip out for a few hours. I don't think he could come to Grimmauld Place even though I'm sure he'd love to see it, and it's probably too dangerous for him to know that you and Mr Lupin are actually part of Laszlo's (but I think he could come along to tea time if Hydra had another session there withMrs L Tonks), but what if we arranged for you and him to find a way to see each other over the holidays? I bet I could keep people away for a while if they think he's in Buckingham and doesn't want to see anyone. He's supposed to spend time with the Malfoys too, but that's harder to sneak away because it's more like being a family and people include him more. But sometimes he and Draco go flying and we could maybe arrange something then, as long as Professor Lestrange doesn't go with them or anything.
Anyway, is there somewhere nearby Laszlo's where you could meet him but not be seen? Or even anywhere else, if he can Floo there and so can you then you could just meet.
What do you think?

P.S., I'm glad you liked the Galleon. We worked hard on it. Do you think Mr Snape's right and we could use something like it for everyone in the camps? I think we'd have to make sure that the messages from those coins don't show up on our coins here at school. The way we did these was that they're all connected through a modified Protean charm; I think if you did another batch the same way, but never connected one to the original coins (ours, I mean), you'd be all right. And then there's the question of how to keep them getting stolen or something if someone's in the camps. A Galleon is a lot of money to some people. But I think the twins could help with some anti-theft charms. Although that might be a problem because what if it started screaming in the middle of the night, a mudblood can't have an enchanted item at all and then they'd find it and maybe it isn't going to work, hm. Or do you think it should be something that doesn't look like money in the first place? That's probably better. A button or badge would do it and no one would think it too odd, maybe.
P.P.S., I think maybe if you had some time when I could slip away and see you, that might be good. If you and Mr Lupin have time, I mean, I think maybe I'd like to talk a little about--my mother. But maybe not just yet. I'm not sure. Sometimes I think it's better when I don't think about it.
P.P.P.S. Justin was glad, too, and he said that he hopes now you've met Hydra you'll stop worrying so much that she's just like Bellatrix.
