Chapter one: First encounter

It was a beautiful sunny day in Diagon Alley there was barely a cloud in sight and the air held excitement for the coming school year for Hogwarts students yet Nyphondora Tonks ignored all of it as she walked briskly through the crowd of families to get to a clothing store. She needed new work robes as the previous ones had the misfortune of being victims to one of her household spells gone a riot. As usual at this time there was a long line, mostly students who were getting their first robes or who had out grown their pervious ones from last year. Tonks had no time to wait in line Auror Training would begin in half an hour, so she took a deep breath. "Out of my way! Official Auror business!," Tonks yelled as she bumped shoulders with everyone trying squeeze through. As she got to the front nearly tripping on someone's shoes, she smiled and put her old robes on the counter. The saleswoman who had become familiar with Tonks theses past months picked up the robes." Ah, Ms. Tonks I see we have need for new robes?" The saleswomen asked as she examines large holes on the sleeves. "Have you tried repairing them with magic?" "I'm afraid it won't work . A rogue spell during Auror training you know," Tonks lied not wanting to admit at her clumsiness on household spells. " Well take a sit there and we'll get someone to help you," The sales women pointed to a waiting area where all the seats were taken but one. Tonks sat down and grab the nearest and only wizard magazine left on the table beside her. The quibbler, an odd magazine yet she had a long wait ahead so she flipped through the pages absent minded.

"Professor Lupin your teaching this year?" Tonks heard a woman ask."Yes, as the new defense against the dark arts teacher," A man's voice replied. " So you'll be needing teaching robes, take a seat and we'll get to you in a moment." The sales lady told him. The women who had been seated next to Tonks got up as she was called for a fitting leaving the empty seat for the man. Curious about the new Defense against the Dark Arts teacher, Tonks trying not to seem too obvious took a quick glance at the man. He had light brown hair with bits of gray thrown in and looked around his early or mid thirties. He looked kind of cute in the older man type of way. Just as she was thinking this the professor caught her staring at him and met her gaze. Tonks blushed, her face turning pink like her hair.

"Nymphadora Tonks?" A woman's voice interrupted, saving her the embarrassment and Tonks jumped up and quickly went to were the woman led her to a station. As she walked her faux leather dragon boots caught on a robe that was laying on the floor and she tripped and went tumbling head first, in affords to stop her fall she grab onto some mannequins robes though she only succeed in bring the mannequin down with her. Gasps and shock went over the crowd as one of the saleswomen pulled the mannequin off of Tonks. Tonks quickly got up and brushed her robes off , her face a beet red and her hair randomly changing colors. "Well… sorry about that," Then she hurried off behinds a pair of curtains. That was so embarrassing and in front of that man! , she thought, not really knowing why it matter that he had seen. "Ms. Tonks we have here a selection of robes for your choosing," A sales woman brought with a wave of her wand a pile of robes. Tonks took a quick look through the pile and selected a few. "Um , I'd like the dark purple and emerald green ones please," Tonks asked as looked at her red face in the mirror that hung on one side of the wall. "I probably won't ever see him again." She convinces herself.

**Just After Tonks became an Auror**

" I thought for sure that after I became a Auror that my work loan and stress would decrease," Tonks muttered to herself as she finish a stack of papers and started on a new one. "Well if it isn't Nymphadora Tonks," a rough voice said in front of her. "Don't call me Nymph-" Tonks looked up and saw Mad eye Moody in front of her desk." Moody!" She gasped in surprise and delight. "You've come back after your stay in Hogwarts. How was it? I didn't receive any letters from you."

" Bloody Hell, Nymphadora," He said ignoring the scowl that she gave him. "That's a long story in it self. Got locked up by some crack pot, you remember Crouch's son? Yeah that son of-," Moody cut off then took a deep breath. " Well what happen was a trap was set by some Death Eaters to get Harry Potter and along the way a student was killed." "Who was the student?" Tonks asked. " Cedric Diggory, the son of Amos Diggory." "Is Harry okay?" Tonks asked. "Yeah, he's fine. But you have been hearing the rumors?" Moody told her as he leaned against her desk. Tonks nodded. Since the tournament there were rumors that You-know-who had return and the ministry was trying to settle them down. "Yeah there was a bit of hysteria here after the tournament. The ministry has been working on tampering down the rumors."

Moody just grunted, and then changed the subject, " Lets go celebrate." "About what," Tonks asked confused, as she grabbed her coat. "That you became an Auror, sorry I wasn't here and all, but better late than never." "Oh, lets invited Kingsley Shacklebolt he just down the hall, he's helped me many times this month and he's a good friend," Tonks said they went the down the hall.

""""" A few days have passed"""""

Nymphadora Tonks was just getting ready to leave to go home as Kingsley stopped her. " Hey Tonks want to go and get something to eat?" He asked.

" Sure ," She said she fallowed him out of the office. "as long as you buy."

They went for butterbeers at the three Broomsticks, which was less than crowded. They found a secluded booth and order some drinks and food. Tonks noticed that Kingsley was looking around the crowd. Their drinks arrived and so did their food and they began to eat.

" Tonks , I didn't just call you to have some drinks but to discuss some business matter," Kingsley said in a low whisper.

" About what?" Tonks said as she took a bite of chicken. She had known something was bothering him.

" Do you believe in the rumors, that You-know-who has came back?" He asked her, watching closely at her reaction.

" Well, Dumbledore himself is saying they are truth so, yeah I do." She told him and took a long sip of her beer. " Plus, I was trained by Mad Eye Moody who taught me to look beneath the surface."

" But do you believe that Dumbledore is just spreading rumors so he could take control, many people are saying this," Kingsley argued.

Tonks laughed, "If he wanted to take over he wouldn't need to spout all that nonsense, he could beat the Minster and half of the Aurors by himself." Then she sobered up. " Do you believe in those rumors?"

" Yes and no." He replied.

" Huh?"

" I do believe in the ones of you know who coming back but not of Dumbledore," He told her.

"Wait, what's this about then," She asked, putting down her piece of chicken.

"Tonks, I'm in a secret organization in which fights against you know who, and I'm asking you to join," He said it so low that only she could hear.

" Your not pulling my leg are you?" She asked as she leaned close. " If you are I won't be responsible for my actions."

" I'm serious Tonks."

Tonks thought for a moment then said ," Then I'm in."

"I'll tell you the details later."Kingsley said as he resumed eating his chicken and soup.
