Chapter 11

Paper work! Paperwork the terror of everyone that has ever had to work. For such a simple thing Paperwork has managed to become a terror due to the sheer amount of it. It is hidden amoungst a pile of such a horror that we find Lilith lefay quietly cursing as she fills out the forms caused by the disaster that was the Quiditch world cup.

The security for the event was supposed to be handled by ICW enforcers but the brittish demanded that they take the responsibility for it even going so far as to sign a contract with the enforcers that all responsibility lies with the british ministry of magic. The enforcers corps being a highly prestigous organisation were not bothered about gaining more prestige as they were the best of the best. They were just making sure that if anything goes wrong the blame lands where it should.

So here was Lilith filling out the mirade of form that were generated when reports of an unknown/known but denied of existance terrorist group rears its head. She was deffinetly not happy as she had to inform her boss jean-luc about the blistering conversation she had with her highness about the incident.

Luckily for lilith and Jean-Luc a summons had bean sent to britain for dumbledore and minister Fudge. The both of whom should be arriving for a meeting of the ICW that was taking place shortly. So Lilith rose changed into her combat outfit with mask. As the regulations said all enforcers guarding the chambers must be in full combat readiness, This serves the dual purpose of intimidation and preparation for defence.

Since she was the senior Enforcer on duty this day she waited outside the door her spear in hand idly spinning it in her boredom. She could already hear the deliberations begining when the door infront of her opened. Eyeing them Lilith held her Gae bolg out to block their progression.

"Identification?" she drawled in a toneless voice. The looks of shock on the two mens face at having a weapon in close proximity to them was rather amusing to lilith.

There where two of them one was a tall skinny man with long flamboyant robes and a beard as long as she was tall. This was Albus dumbledore the Supreme mugwump. He had never seen her but she had seen him. The other man was a short and plump man in a green suit and bowler . As she was only to expect two people today she had to guess that this was a mr Corneleous Fudge.

"Don't you know who we are? We are here for a meeting with the ICW!" declaired fudge pompusly. " You could be the goddess hecate and i still wouldn't let you in until i saw some ID" Lilith responded in the same bored drawl only to see the small man inflate like a red balloon. It really was quite amusing.

"Now cornelious my boy there is no need for a fuss the young lady is just doing her job" Dumbledore said in that condesendingly grandfather tone of his. She noticed howerver that he had yet to take his eyes of her weapon. "I have our identification here" And with that he handed over the two tags for Lilith to inspect. Using the small authenticity checking spell(and structural analysis just to be thorough) she handed them back " keep those on your persons at all times as it is only those tags that keep you safe from the wards" explained Lilith in her ussual deadpan. Turning around she spins her blade and holds it against her back to keep it out of the way as she leads them both towards the door.

Opening such a massive contruction herself should have been impossible as it was designed to withstand seiges. But due to the weight modification magics and her abnormal strength it too hardly any effort at all leaving a pair of open mouthed politicions behind her as she had no time to waste.

There she stood on the podioum as her two tag alongs caught up with her. "Enforcer might i ask why you interupt this session?" announced the speaker catching everyones attention. Standing there before one and all she replied " This enforcer begs the gatherings forgivness but it is my humble duty to announce that the guests from magical britain have arrived" she proclaimed to the chamber before she stood aside and made her way to her assigned station for the session.

"Welcome Minister Fudge, Headmaster Dumbledore! You have both been invited here to give account for the fiasco that was the quiditch world cup!" began the speaker. "This body agreed to allow the event and its security to be handled by your country on the assurance that nothing would happen." at this there was a general grumble of discontentment amongst the members of the session. "I have been informed by the head of the enforcers that the contract which you signed Minister, says the penalty for failing your duty is that the ICW MUST have input into all future events of such a nature." at this the general buzz was approving of this. Both dumbledore and Fudge were looking extremely uncomfortable infront of the accusing stares of their peers. " to make matters worse for both of you her highness the queen has had to use a courier to this body as she has not been recieving reports from either of you!" bellowed the speaker causing fudge to fidget where he stood.

"Now seeing as you have already set in motion this tournament of yours dumbledore The ICW will be sending allong one of its best Enforcers to ensure nothing happens to the students." at this the assembly where nodding in agree ment but dumbledore had a different oppinion " That will not be necessary all of the students will be perfectally safe as hogwarts is and always has been the safest place in the world." he said with assurance. At this Jean-Luc responded " you might be perfectly happy trusting in nothing but wards but as we saw there is a group of terrorists running around your country either we send the enforcer or we cancel the tournament your call dumbledore!" at this there were shouts of 'hear,hear' and grumbles of approval.

"surely we can come to some kind of deal?" stumbled out fudge to which Jean-luc snapped back "and why would we want to deal with a man who harbours people who are wanted in every other magical country! your friend malfoy for example is wanted in atleast 6 countries for trial and several others for questioning yet you harbour him, this seriously causes doubt on your fitness as a leader!" the look of shock on Fudges face was evident and he shrunk back.

At this point it was Dumbledores turn to try and salvage the situation. "Is there a possibility of knowing which enforcer will be sent?" he asked hoping it was someone he could sway to his side. At this Jean-Luc considered not saying but turned to the speaker "my lord speaker it is upon the will of the assembly if i do so!" at this the speaker called for a vote to be taken upon which two thirds of the assembly wished to know the enforcer to be sent.

Although Dumbledore had his face schooled inside he was extatic he would be able to find out about the person who was being sent to invade his realm and possibly turn them to his side. If he did that there was the possibility he could get the enforcer to train young Evan and the enforcers where known to be the best so it could not hurt.

Cornelious was worried as if the enforcer was in country and if what they said about Lucious was true then who knows who else had warrents out on them? Who else whould the enforcer possibly target? Was there a possibility that the enforcer would target him? No,no silly fear they would only be there to protect the children from threats. With that thought Minister Fudge managed to calm himself enough to see through the vote.

Jean-Luc was in two minds, yes he wanted to tell them as it would send terror through the english mens minds about who he was sending, and boy he would love to do that. But he also knew that surprise was key in situations here he was stuck he could either hange his operative over their heads like a preverbial sword of damiclese or have them hidden like a blade in the back hmm decisions. It was because of this he decided to let the vote decide for him.

Lilith had gotten very friendly with Jean-lucs family over the years. She was only a few years older than his oldest so it was no surprise that he would introduce them to each other. So when the job for a protection detail came up for the tournament he needed an independant agent and as one of his strongest and most skilled she came to mind instantly. The fact that she was friendly with fleur didn't hurt either. So when the vote came she knew what to expect.

Seeing the total Jean-Luc took the podium again. "as the totals are in and we have decided to declair the operative, i call forth Enforcer Specialist 1st class Le fay" at this announce ment there was a shocked silence.

"I'm sorry Mr delacour but did you just say le fay?" stumbled out minister fudge only to get a reply from behind him "why yes minister it is my name after all" with amusment twinkling in the deep purple eyes. Snickering could be heard amoungst the assembly at the young womans remark causing the minister to blush and quickly retreat away from her as she approached the dias to adress the assembly.

"Enforcer please introduce yourself to the assembly" announced Jean-Luc. "Greatings honoured assembly of the ICW. I am Enforcer specialist 1st class Lilith le fay of the most aincient and royal house of le fay, the most aincient and noble house of ravenclaw, duchess of skye, messenger of her magisty the queen, war mage and finally a guardian healer. However you would mostly know of me as Scathach as that is the name i am reported as in briefs." finished Lilith as she saw the looks of shock on there faces followed by the recognition at the name of her past life that she had been using as a nom de guerre.

It was here that Jean-Luc took over "As the queen has all but demanded that we tighten security i plan on sending operative 'Scathach' as security as she can handle all but the most rediculous threats. And if she needs backup she can request it easily from her magisty or from the ICW. Are there any questions?"

"yes if i am going to let anyone into my school as security i want to know who taught them!" demanded dumbledore only to see a twinkle in the girls eyes. He was sure she was smirking at him but he couldn't tell due to that damned mask. "If you must know mister dumbledore i was taught by rowena ravenclaw , godric gryfindore, salazar slytherin and helga hufflepuff." This deadpanned answer caused a mass of shouting and accusation of lying until the young woman slammed her spear into the ground slightly cratering it.

" If you had let me finish!" Lilith demanded "my family was not happy with hogwarts but there are contracts nowadays that force students to attend if you are decended from certain families. So after checking the school my family was not happy with the corriculum and since i had to go or the contract would squib me we used a family unique spell to send me back to the founders." At this everyones jaws where hanging open. "well i think that is everything i need to get ready for my mission." and with that Lilith turned and stalked out of the room in a flash of deep purple.
