Chapter 6 - Dolores Umbridge Versus the Toaster Of Doom

Dolores Umbridge peered into the every cupboard in her kitchen.

There were no centaurs in any of them.

Breathing a sigh of relief, Umbridge popped bread into her toaster. Then she crossed to the fridge. She pried the door open with a broomstick, standing well away from it. When she saw there were no centaurs inside, she put the broom down and took the butter and juice out of the fridge.

This was the way she had been living ever since she left Hogwarts a few weeks before. She rarely left her house, preferring instead to have her groceries delivered to her and her work owled to her.

The toast popped out of the toaster. Umbridge moved forward to retrieve her breakfast.

CLANG! The toaster seized her hand!

It was burning hot! Umbridge screamed in pain, whacking her hand against the countertop, trying to get the toaster to let go. It was no use!

In desperation, Umbridge unplugged the toaster, flinging the cord aside.

Bad move. The cord flew right into the half-full sink.

ZZZZZZZT.

And that was the end of Dolores Umbridge.
