Hagrid awoke to see a disgruntled owl, which he recognized to be from the
Ministry of Magic, tapping hurriedly at his window. In its talons it had
clutched a slightly yellowed yet official looking piece of parchment that
had a red ribbon tied around it, forming a scroll.
He pulled himself out of his large but grubby bed and stumbled to open the door, half-asleep. The owl immediately flew in, dropped the scroll, then flew right back out and flew away.
Hagrid grunted as he bent down to the floor to pick up the scroll. He stood back up and sat on his couch to read the parchment. It read:
Dear Rubeus Hagrid-
It has come to our attention that you have experience with dealing with Giants of the North Mountains. We would pay you quite a few galleons, and our respect to you and your fellow kind. Please consider talking with them about joining our side, Cornelius Fudge ~ Minister of Magic Hagrid blinked. Talking to members of his kind? Again? He groaned. He needed help. Surely Olympe could come to his aid... He got up and walked out the door to the owlery. He grabbed a barn owl by the leg, and quickly scrawled on a tiny scrap of parchment: Need help with request from Ministry dealing with giants. Assistance requested, Hagrid And with that, he rolled up the parchment and forced it into the talon of the still struggling barn owl. He said, "Give this to Olympe Maxime. Off with ya now!" he gave the owl an encouraging shove, then tromped back to his hut, deep in thought.
* * * * * * * Two days later, Hagrid was just out of bed and reading the Daily Prophet(there was something interesting about Hippogriffs in there)when a very very large reddish owl flew in, nibbled his cheek affectionately, dropped a letter, and flew away. Dear Hagrid, I have reaceived your owl. I have agreed to help you with the giants. ~Olympe Maxime
