Authors note: first fanfiction I've written for a while, so probably not all that great, but thanks for at least clicking on it bros. Credit to whoever drew the cover image, it's beautiful.
Prologue – worrying talks and rebellious beliefs
"Nymphadora!" Mad-Eye Moody barked, stomping into the tiny cubicle that was Tonks' office. The woman in question, miss Nymphadora Tonks, let out a loud groan and rested her head upon the cluttered desk in front of her.
"I didn't mean to Mad-Eye, It was an accident, it won't happen again" she recited in a monotone. She honestly hadn't meant to let Derek Hunt escape, after all she didn't fall over the table on purpose and she had spent weeks trying to find his location.
"What?... oh that" Mad-Eye said with a frown " CONSTANT VIGILENCE"
Tonks jumped high into the air which resulted in her knocking a full pot of ink to the floor where it shattered with a crash.
"oh bugger, was that really necessary Made Eye?" Mad Eye did not reply, just cleaned up the mess with a flick of his wand and conjured a chair in front her desk. He had been only been out of hospital for a week, after Barty crouch JR had locked him in his own trunk for an entire school year, and was now more jumpy than ever. Though she didn't like to admit it, Tonks had been very concerned about her mentors health as he recuperated and had even resorted to visiting him in St Mungos, while he was asleep of course.
"We need to talk lass" and the door of Tonks' office clicked shut behind Mad-eyes haggard figure. Tonks gave no reply but sat up straight, trying not to convey the feeling of dread that was bubbling in her stomach. "what is your opinion on Dumbledore?"
Her blood ran cold and she fumbled with her thoughts in her head.
"I agree with him, my parents and I have always trusted Dumbledore and I will remain doing so until I have a reason to doubt him. Diggory was at school the same time as me, same house as well, he was a likeable boy ,if a little thick, and I refuse to believe whatever Fudge is coming up with to hide his cause of death from the rest of the world. If Dumbledore and the Boy-Who-Lived believes Voldemort is back then I do too and tell Umbridge on me if you want, it will not change my views" The young auror said quickly, without pause.
As Tonks sat with her heaving chest, trying to catch her breath, Mad Eye beamed at her and handed her a crumpled sheet of paper across the table.
Authors note: It is probably full of spelling and grammar errors because I am terrible at checking for such things, but thank you for making it through. If there are any major or really stupid errors feel free to point them out!
Please make my day and review!
