A/N: Sorry this one is so short, please review

Rowena stood there watching Salazar and Helga argue. As she watched Salazar she saw an expression of uneasiness come about his face; she then knew it was time to steer the conversation into more safe, shallower waters.

"So what will we do about the building structure then?" she asked, stepping up.

Helga looked at her as she always did when Rowena interrupted.

She hesitated, "Well, I don't know. We'll have to ask for an extension for the due date."

"But you know we can't," Salazar argued, causing Rowena to sigh and roll her eyes, "We've already asked the Ministry for many extensions; this one will be the last half of the straw."

"I'll go ask," Rowena said, then muttered, "Accio rug," and waited.

"Rowena, there's no point; they declined last time, what will make them accept it this time?"

Rowena shrugged, "All I can do is hope to Merlin that they do accept. In the mean time I suggest you guys brainstorm more than argue just incase they don't," she said as her flying carpet zoomed in through the window.

Godric gave her an odd sort of expression, making her uneasy as she climbed onto the carpet, "What's on your mind?" she carefully asked him.

"Who in the realm is Merlin?" he asked.

Rowena laughed, "He's my great-uncle; swears up and down everyone is going to remember his name someday so I'm just helping him out by make up catchy little phrases like, 'Merlin's beard!" when you're surprised or, 'What in the name of Merlin?' and et cetera. Well, tootles!" she said, feeling warmth caress her face from the sun which was completely up now.

"Alright, hurry back, Rowena, we need all the help we can get if this query doesn't pass."

Rowena nodded her head as she zoomed out of the window through the lazy country side where Godric lived and up into the clouds so stray Muggle eyes didn't spy her.

It took her nearly half an hour to get to the ministry and on her journey she wished beyond wish that she had the power to apparate. No one had taught her and her entire family; consisting of Muggles; lived in Latins living in the newly founded city they called Rome. The ministry didn't teach people to apparate; parents had to get a permit from the ministry to teach their children how to apparate; then the child could take his or her test. To purchase a permit you had to prove you were of some sort of blood kin to the child you were buying the permit for. Rowena's family had shunned her when they found out she could do magical things and she had almost been burnt alive but she fled the prison just in time saved by Godric.

She owed him her life and she was determined to take that opportunity the moment it showed its face.
