I was feeling not what you would call tip-top form the morning after, and so it was with great surprise that I received my God-Mother in my bedroom at the God awful hour of 6:50 am. Quite what my God-Mother was doing in my bedroom at 6:50 in the morning was lost to me, and quite rightly so. I feel, at this time, that it is important for me to shed some light, as it were, on the matter of my God-Mother. Let me assure you, My God-Mother is not someone you would like to owe money to. Its quite possible that she eats the young of Dragons, and this is why they are dying out. Truth be told, my God-Mother scares the willies out of me, and why Sirius married the Medusa is quite beyond me, but there is love in that relationship somewhere, and I content myself with the bachelors life, while avoiding my Go-Mother Allanah like the plague.

So, it was with the utmost shock when I awoke to find my God-Mother standing over my bed with a look of utmost disgust on her face

'Do you have any idea what time it is?' she asked, while her lips formed a small white line.

'No, God-Mother' was my meek and terrified reply

'Its 2 o'clock in the afternoon, boy'

My eyes flicked over to the clock on my wall. It said 6:50 am. 'Allanah? Your quite wrong you know, its 6:50 am. Why did you wake me up at that horrible time?'

'Sometimes I wish you'd never been born' Was all she said in return

So did I. 'Really?'

'Yes. It's 2 pm you stupid fool. Your clock has stopped'

I registered surprise, I thought I had been quite circumspect in my look at the clock 'Is it? Oh'

'Yes'

'Why exactly, have you come to visit me?'

'I need a favour of you, young Harry'

I started at the use of my name. She must really need a favour if she was being polite 'Anything I can do for you, Allanah?'

'Yes there is'

'Really?'

'Yes'

'Oh'

'What I want you to do is keep the Minister busy for a couple of weeks'

'A couple of weeks?' was all I could splutter.

'Stop spitting, its a nasty habit'

'But a couple of weeks? Strictly impossible'

'Oh no it isn't my boy'

Ah, out with the polite, in with the mad spitting Cobra. 'All right, how do I keep the Minister busy for two weeks?'

'With your amazing wit and good humour, fool'

Cobra, Cobra, Cobra

'Seriously, how on Earth do I do that? Keep him occupied I mean'

'I don't know, think of something'

I sighed. Brazil was looking appealing. But refusing would do me no good, I'd only get a hex in the eye 'All right. Care to explain why my distracting the Minister for a whole two weeks?'

'Its very simple'

'It is?'

'Yes'

'Really'

'Enough of your idly chit-chat boy'

'all right'

'Now, is everything clear?'

'No'

'What's wrong now, you fool?'

'You didn't tell me why you're here'

'Easy, I need a favour Harry'

'You covered that'

'I know, quick aren't you?'

'har, yes'

'what was that? Are you choking boy?'

'No, that was a derisive laugh'

'Really? How interesting'

'Yes'

'Anyway boy, I have to go, important things to do you know' With that, she swept from the room

I paused, in shock as my God-Mother swept out in a swirl of black

'Dobby?' came my stuttering entreaty

Dobby appeared from nowhere, giving me a start 'Yes, sir?'

'I need a pick me up'

'Sir?'

'Thats right, double butterbeer on the rocks my good man'

'At once, sir'

'Theres a good chap' When Dobby re-appeared with said pick-me-up i gulped it loudly. My eyes flashed and i was re-awakened.
