Reina shook her head at the thought of the overly grateful woman. If only she knew.
"Sweet! I'll take a MonstaBeat. It's this really good alcholic drink. It's green with smoke and it's really strong. One drink usually makes most people drunk, that's why I only drink half a mug. We can get it at the ..."
Reina stopped. She trusted Sienna, but didn't know what the woman would say if she knew she had a connection at the pub in knockturn alley. It wasn't really a connection more like a threat to kill the woman if she didn't bring her the drink.

Sienna shuddered a little at the thought of having a Monstabeat. Those dreadful beverages, she pondered. But she had to admit that she liked it that one time. Until she became unconscious and got a hang-over. "Where? Go on," Sienna prompted, knowing that she had to say 'Knockturn'. "Where can you get it?"

"Knockturn Alley."
Reina started to recall the last time she ever had the drink.
"Yeah. Most can't handle it. There was this one girl. Sierra or Sicily or somthing like that. She insisted she could drink it. The girl was tough. For one a bit younger than me she drank two. I was impressed until she passed out and almost succumb to alcohol poisioning. I had to save her or get in trouble."
Reina wanted to impress Sienna so she hastily added.
"I mean I took her back to the Castle. I would have been in Azkaban if they found a dead girl in my possesion."

Dear, she remembered, Sienna thought with dread. It was her first excursion to find members, and she failed it. Or at least she thought she did, because at least Reina made it in. But still....
Trying to brush someting invisble off her shoulder, she looked on at the younger girl not impressed, but more nervous and horrified. "Okay, mate. Let's get to Knockturn Alley." She frowned when she realized that cleaning wouldn't be necessary. "You don't mind if we floo?"

Reina shook her head. Personally she hated flooing. She didn't like the feeling of not being in control, but she wasn't going to show weakness to Sienna. Whom she wanted to impress so badly.
"No that's fine. Where's your fireplace?" Reina caught Sienna's expression. She couldn't quite make out the look. "Are you okay? Did you see a PR Member?"

"Not quite," Sienna said as she played off her previous expression with a rather solemn look. "It's just a bugger to do these flooing things. I personally hate them as they give me headaches-- just like that old lady-- but it nothing to whine about."
Making a note to have Cross's servants to clean her blouse properly, she nodded on to a family restuarant. "I know I place that doesn't mind a few people now and then flooing. 'Specially if you threaten them with a health code violation."

Reina nodded and tried to sound soothing in her not really caring voice.
"Truth I don't like flooing either. It's the whole not being in control factor. Same reason I'm not partial to portkeys. That's why I love my broom. I'm totally in control."
Reina smiled at the family restaurant bit.
"I'll say. Let's go."

"Right," Sienna agreed as she opened the doors to the cheaply made restaurant. The wooden tables were filled with huge families and equally big meals. And sure enough, the fireplace was in the back. Seeing the manager walk right past her, she put on her most tight-lipped and polite smile. "Good day, sir. I believe you remember me, no?"

Reina followed behind Sienna. Reina smiled friendly, but it didn't quite reach her eyes. That particular smile usually made people nervous and gave off the impression that Reina wanted to hurt them or was thinking thoughts they didn't want to know.
Reina flipped her hair to the side like a muggle teenager. She looked around as though she was vaugely interested in what the restaurant had to offer. In reality Reina was mentally counting how many people, how many exits, how many threats, how many hostages, etc.

One look at Sienna, and the manager knew exactly who she was. Or more like who they thought she was. "Miss London! Pleasure to see you again," He managed to make his frown turn upside down. "I'm guessing you want a table for two?"
She rolled her eyes and shook her head with the smile still plastered. "You know, Amos, that I have no interest in your purtrid food. What I would like, though, is to have another go on your fireplace."
Sighing, the manager knew where it went if he didn't obey. She had multiple violations against him. And if she remembered, he had no close relatives to remem... "Right this way, Miss London." He guided Sienna and Reina to the fireplace. Taking out some her own floo powder, she looked to Reina. "Got yourself together?"

Reina shook her head. She didn't carry around floo powder, because she hated flooing. She followed the man as he led them to his fireplace.
"No, I don't carry my own."
Suddenly Reina felt stupid and unprepared.

Sienna sighed and laughed. "I didn't mean that, my dear. I've got plenty here," she took out her pouch and gave the dose needed for the trip to Reina. "I meant if you've got all of your things together so you won't lose anything. But we're fine, I suppose." Sienna gingerly pushed Reina towards the fireplace. "Go on, now. I'll be there shortly."

Reina nodded though it was not needed as Sienna gave her a small push towards the fireplace. Reina took a few deep breaths. She really did hate flooing. Okay, okay, here goes. Reina stepped into the fireplace.
"Knockturn Alley!"
Reina felt her body spin and spin and spin so fast that she closed her eyes. She heard the voices from the restaurant die out then suddenly she felt herself pushed forward. She landed on her knees andlooked around slightly disoriented.
"I freaking hate flooing!"
