LILITH WAS GETTING READY for her first day of work when she hears Tonks come into her flat.

"Lilith! It's your first day! How do you feel?" Dora leans on the bathroom doorway. "A bit nervous. I mean it's my first real job you know?" Lilith says while putting on her heels. "But you worked at Quality Quidditch Supplies. And Florean Fortesque's." Tonks says. "Well yeah but those weren't real jobs. I works at Florean's because he was short on staff and Quality Quidditch Supplies I got fired for stealing a snitch. Which were only like a sickle." Lilith tells her sister while waking out of the bathroom.

"Do I look okay?" Lilith asks while standing infront of her body mirror. "You look beautiful, sis. Now let's go." Dora says and starts walking out of the room.

"Bye, Hades. Bye, Pluto. I love you so much, I'll see you later." Lilith blows them a kiss and grabs her purse. "Let's go." Lilith says and Tonks opens the door.

"COME ON, LILS. IT'S ONLY a five minute walk." Tonks says.

Dora was trying to convince Lilith to walk to work with her. They were already outside of their flat complex and were on the sidewalk.

"Fine. But you owe me." Lilith jokingly glares at her sister and starts walking.

WHEN THEY ARRIVE EVERYONE was trying to get to their departments.

"Lilith! Tonks!" They hear someone say from the crowd. "Silas! Hi." Lilith smiles. Silas walks up to her and hugs her. Zander and Jaxson come up from behind him. "Hi." Lilith says and hugs the other two men. "Are you nervous? Excited?" Zander asks. "I don't know." She shrugs. "I would feel nervous. I mean if the minister choose me to be his assistant, I would be shitting bricks." Jaxson tells the shorter girl. "Well I not necessarily his assistant-" Lilith begins. "Well your basically his assistant. I mean he picked you. Out of everyone that wanted to be, he picked you. And he doesn't even know you! I am kind of jealous, even though he's a prick." Zander rambles. "Zander! You can't say that." Lilith scolds her friend. Zander just playfully rolls his eyes. "Okay, shortstack." he pets the girl's head. She glares at him. "You should get their really early. Don't want to upset the minister." Zander smirks. Not for long since Lilith hit him in the gut with her purse. "Merlin Lilith. What do you have in there." Zander bends over.

"Tonks! Shacklebolt wants to see you." They hear someone call Tonks. Sirius and James come walking up to the group of young adults. When Lilith and James make eye contact they both start blushing. "Why? Am I getting fired?" Tonks asks. "Probably." Sirius says. When he sees Tonks' eyes widen he immediately says, "I'm just joking. Probably just a new assignment." Tonks visibly relaxes. "Oh thank merlin. I thought he found out about the sandwich." Tonks puts her hand on the right side of her chest. "Your heart is on the other side, idiot." Lilith laughs. "Shit." Tonks says under her breath. "That never happened." She says after she moved her hand. "And what sandwich?" Zander asks.

"Last week Lilith only packed me one sandwich, she usually packs two. And I was still hungry so I ate a sandwich that had an S on it. Assumed it was shacklebolt's." The girl shrugs. "I only packed one? Oh I'm sorry. I swear I packed two." Lilith says.

"Oh, wait. I remember now. Ha, no wonder there was a sandwich on the counter. I was wondering where it came from. Whoops." Lilith shrugs at her sister. "Wait the sandwich had a S on it?" Sirius asks. The purple haired girl nods. "That was my bloody sandwich." Sirius says. "I was left starving, dora. Starving." He whispers to his cousin. "Blame Lilith." Tonks scoffs. "Why me? You atleast ate something. You left Sirius with nothing." Lilith says. "Oh no. I ate something." Sirius informs the girl. She furrows her eyebrows. "You took James' didn't you." She says in realization. "Only half! And he offfered." Sirius defends himself. "No I didn-" James glares at his friend. "Ha, oh Jamsie you are hilarious." Sirius fake laughs and wraps his arm around his friend's shoulder.

"Well, we've got to go to our department. See you later." Sirius says and walks away, dragging James with him. "Yeah us too." the three other men say. "Good luck, shortstack." Zander pats the girl's head and walks away. " Okay, Good luck, and I love you." Dora tells her sister and hugs her. "Love you, too." Lilith hugs back. "Bye, Lils." Tonks waves and walks away.

AFTER WORK SHE WAS EXTREMELY exhausted. The minister, Cornelius Fudge, had her look into a case. Something about a man named Peter.

He had murdered thirteen people. 12 muggles and 1 muggle-born. They closed the case a while ago and assumed he died, but they opened it when he was spotted in Cambridge. There wasn't many leads but Lilith found something. He was an unregistered animagus, his form was a rat. She looked into the drawing of a rat and it looked so familiar to her. She couldn't think of why.

She was in the shower. Still thinking about that rat when she felt the water start to get cold. She lets out a sigh and turns the water off. She dries herself with a towel and puts on her pyjamas. She walks out of her room, her pets in tow, and walks into the kitchen. She pours herself a glass of wine and makes herself spaghetti. She was about to sit down to eat when she hears a knock at the door. She lets out a quiet groan and gets up.

When she opens the door she sees Camille standing there with a bottle of wine. She smiles at her and lets her in. "Hey, you want to eat. I made spaghetti." She asks her friend. "Oui. I am starving." Camille says and sits herself down.
