Character: Cornelius Fudge

If You Dare Challenge: Prompt: 74: Quicksand

~/~/~/~/~/~/~/~

Cornelius Fudge felt as if he was in quicksand and sinking fast. He knew that he had messed up by having Harry Potter tried for the use of underage magic and using magic in front of a muggle. He knew before he even did it that there was no way that he could win, but he went ahead with it.

He also knew that if he didn't do something soon that he would lose his position and that is something that he didn't want. He loved being Minister of Magic. He loved that people had to do what he said. However, he also knew that if he wanted to keep his job that he would have to make some changes.

As he sat there thinking about what he could do to keep his beloved job it hit him. He could do what he should have done two years ago and that is clear Sirius Black's name. He would also give a public apology to Harry Potter for what he did. Yes, that is what he would do.

He would stop feeling as if he was in quicksand if he finally did what he should have done all along. He would finally do what was right instead of what was easy.
