Professor Abba acted about as well as expected when the three students went to her about what had happened. She had a fit which included a lecture and lots of threats about expelling them and then she hauled them to the head master's office.
Potter glanced guiltily around. He had been named after Dumbledore the greatest headmaster to ever grace Hogwarts. Sadly Dumbledore had been dying of a curse and had been killed by Snape in order to get close to he who must not be named. Potter had actually loved the story of the two wizards he was named after. He very much wished they were alive for him to meet. Not right this moment though. He feared very much he would be a great disappointment right now.
The head master an old wizard known as Hardric Umpleberry listened with a frown. He was shaking his head by the time Professor Abba was done.
" Children this is a horrible mess up that you've managed to get involved in. I daresay the ministry is going to have a fit. Number one you've placed an innocent muggle in horrible danger just by exposing her to our world not to mention Fenrir! Contact with one of the most wanted shape shifters can have consequences I don't even want to think about! Manipulating one even one as evil as Fenrir is a direct violation of the treaties that were set up many years ago! Leaving the school without supervision! Lying! I'm not even sure where to start with all of this."
Charlie took a deep breath and stepped forward. " Sir, please...this is a my fault. I'm asking that you not punish Rosie or Potter too harshly. I wanted to find my dad so bad I didn't think this through. I swear I never meant to hurt anyone! "
Professor Abba sighed " Intentions mean nothing Charlie this is a compounded issue that may cause someone innocent their life!"
" Professor? " The teacher turned to the headmaster. He held up a hand " Before we go to the ministry...what can we do? "
Abba shifted thinking while tapping her wand on her hand. " I suppose the quickest way to resolve this is contact whoever speaks for Low Hollow and set up a meeting with their council and Fenrir. If she's still alive well...we could offer to take her off his hands...I suppose I could try to undo whatever was done. If that doesn't work...well...I'm afraid the ministry will have to get involved. "
" If they kill Fenrir won't they kill her? " Rosie asked anxiously. She kept thinking about how small and vulnerable the muggle had looked.
" They will but most likely if Fenrir is handed over or caught he'll simply be sent to a jail that can hold him perhaps the newer rebuilt part of Azkaban. Still..."
Charlie looked hopefully at his teacher wringing his hands " Yes? "
" Forced confinement away from each other might very well kill her...I'm not so sure about Fenrir...you have to have some capacity or empathy for someone else for any kind of bind to be effective and I'm sure that he doesn't have even one little drop in him anywhere. He might very well find it amusing to kill a muggle simply by denying her."
Charlie's shoulders slumped.
The head master clapped his hands and a small dragon flew down from someplace it had been hiding and landed on a perch.
" First things first. I think it best if we call on the council of Low Hollow and see what we can do."
He began writing out a letter.
Charlie stared at the ground tears shining in his eyes. " Will you...will you keep us informed?"
Abba snorted. " Young man the three of you will be going with us as well as two or three aurors."
