A/N: One of my very first Harry Potter stories. It's a short, hopefully funny, one-shot. It's not betaed, and I'm German, but I checked it over myself and I hope there aren't too many mistakes. Reviews are greatly appreciated, I always want to improve my writing and they help a lot by doing so.
The Duties of a Deputy Headmistress
"You wanted to see me, Albus?" Minerva asked, closing the door behind her. She walked over to his desk, sitting down on one of the armchairs as he gestured her to.
"Yes. There's seems to be a problem with my wand, and I can't get it to go away. Maybe you can have a look at it and try?"
The dark-haired woman nodded and rose from her seat, moving to stand in front of him. She bowed down to have a better look at his wand, and saw that there was indeed something wrong with it. It seemed to be swollen and red, especially at the tip it was of a rather deep shade of scarlet.
She put her hand on it, rubbing up and down to feel if the texture had changed too, letting a finger slide over the tip every now and then. She carefully kept on examining it, till a white, creamy fluid exploded from the tip. Slowly, it returned to its normal color and shape.
Minerva looked up at Albus, and smiled at him.
"There, problem solved. Everything is back to normal. Do you need something else from me?"
Albus shook his head.
"No, thank you. I couldn't have returned it to its normal state on my own, thank you for helping me. You know how important his wand is to a wizard. By the way, I'll be able to help you clean you cauldron tonight, like I promised."
Minerva went over to the door, smirking at him over her shoulder.
"That's the least you can do. After all it was your fault that it got dirty in the first place!"
