(This is a continueation of 'Fire...' and will take place in most of the ministry)
Kevin Appeared in the atrium of the ministry nodded at the wand inspector which waved Him and his prisoner past the inspection. People were bustling around minding their own business but the Auror and his prisoner had attracted many glances most just curious so Kevin just shoved past them with the young girl.

The auror and his supposing victim would be receiving many more glances, and not just from the curious. In all of her glory, none other than Malanda Walmsley marched out of the lift to the far right, nostrils flaring. Word had its way of getting around, especially to the higher-ups. And this word told her that some blundering, blustering fool that they call aurors had arrest a student from Hogsmeade. With all of this Elevens business and Thorne's murder floating around, the man better have excellent cause. The press would be all over this, and if the student had been arrested for tying her shoes wrong, Malanda was going to be after blood.
Dark eyes roamed the Atrium, searching with blazing furry. Miscellaneous people, a few various Ministry workers who suddenly picked up pace at the sight of her, and... ah ha! Her victim, tugging a girl by the arm. Walmsley swelled like a bull frog, striding off in their direction.
Those who recognized her avid signs of anger and what they meant scurried out of her path, others stopped to gawk, but did so from a safe distance. Her gaze settled on the girl for a moment, the flashed back to Reynolds.
"You better have a good excuse for this, auror! Or I will personally see that you sit behind a desk for the rest of your career!" That was not an empty threat.

After the failed mission not about two or three days ago made Glenn mad. But simply nothing was found. Some other Ministry workers talking about a man and a young girl enterting the Atrium. Bloody, what now? he thought. As he was enterting the Atrium only to find indeed Kevin and a young girl. But he saw that another Ministry worker was talking to Kevin.
He walked into this scrap and toward the other Ministry worker. "Ma'am, is there a problem with Mr. Reynolds here?" he asked her. Sincerely he should of asked Kevin this but maybe she could answer too. As he saw that he indeed arrested her. He just looked at Kevin and shook his head no. Either Kevin arrested the right girl or he just completely went out of his mind.

Jade looked around the Ministry. This was her first time here and she thought it was fascinating. She had just made a mental note to come back under different circumstances when a woman approached them. After listening to the woman's words, Jade felt slightly guilty. She knew she was completely innocent and that she was probably endangering the auror's career. But then again, it isn't as though I didn't warn him, she thought and the guilt vanished immediately. She almost burst out laughing when another Ministry worker appeared. Jade still found this whole situation extremely hilarious.

" Will you relax Ms. Walmsley, this girl is under arrest for suspicious and possiable connection to the murder of Ms. Thorne if she IS innocent she hasn't really acted it to me I told her who I was and she refused to give me any decent answers so I arrested her and was bringing her to you, I'll say the same under vetiserum if you so desire." Kevin said slightly defensively hopeing by saying this he could avoid the drug, if it came to the worst he had the antidote in his pocket.
"Ms. Walmsley will you take custody of this girl untill the time of her arrest is complete?" This question was standard ministry issue, used during the exchange of any person under suspicion, it allowed Kevin to take no responsibility if this girl escaped and with glenn there if she accepted which was proper protocol she couldn't go back on it.

Word had gotten up to the Wizengamot Administration Offices that an Auror had entered the Ministry with a student in tow. They claimed that she had been arrested by the man. Cody couldn't believe it. That is what he got for sending inexperienced Aurors out onto the field.
He grabbed his wand and quickly sped over to the lifts. After taking the lift to the Atrium, he spotted what he wanted. Kevin Reynolds had the girl, it looked like Glenn Howard was supporting him, and Walmsley was angry.
"There will be no need for custody, Agent Reynolds. You know as well as I do, or you should anyway, that minors cannot be taken into custody without Miss Walmsley's permission. You can hold them at the school, but you may not remove them. This is going on your record, I hope you realize!"

He looked at Mr. Thorne and had to agree with him. Really, Glenn didn't even hear a word of this arrest which kind of made Glenn angry as well. "Kevin..." he whispered in shame. Something like this happened about three or four years ago but never a student. He just looked at the young girl and still couldn't believe of what just happened to him.
Upon hearing that this was going on Kevin's record, Glenn thought he must of needed this. "Mr. Reynolds I must say something. Just because you see a girl or a boy you can't just arrest for no reason,'' he said to Kevin. Wait, for no reason. "Kevin there has to be a reason why you arrest this young girl. So speak up," he demanded Kevin. He hopd he wasn't being too mean but he had no choice.

Ministry news traveled fast, actually it would have been days before an owl, or official met with him to notify him of the arrest, however, it so happened that Armando had been in Hogsmeade at the specific time, standing directly outside of the Three Brromsitcks reading the morning Daily Prophet. The rubbish of a paper it was.
His attention was everywhere, mainly making sure other Ministry folk were minding their respect and proper orders. And yes, he did know what those orders were. While he held no power outside of Hogwarts, nor did he hold badge, he could of course hold witness. And, therefore after watching the scene unfold, rather than apparate to the Ministry, he took the extra moment to finish reading the current article before wandering over to the Floo Network, Hogsmeade District, and fireplacing himself off to arive in a predestined flat (his own) in London moments later, a mere block from the Ministry.
Having followed proper entree procedure, talking the blasted manican and receiving his rather pointless button, he entered the Headquarters of the British Ministry of Magic no longer a Ministry official, but as Hogwarts unofficial represenative. A good turn, one could suppose. He made no voice, he merely lent on some other paper-pusher's desk without a word and watched yet another rather nasty scene unfold.
"Before this man's I presume spotless career is ruined, as present represenative of Hogwarts, I must add on to sir's " He paused nodding at Howard. "Request, and ask as to when or if at all, Hogwarts was intended to be informed." Armando voiced from his location. The reactions he expected varied. It was Ministry party hour and he knew that if he hadn't shown up he wouldn'tve ben invited.
(Pardon my joining, however I beleive in any other instance Hogwarts would have been notified anyway, I'm also left to presume this takes place during the end of year, as I could not determine if it was, or was not summer break from the other thread. If it does not, I believe I can still edit accordingly, or remove myself on my own leisure.--A. Dabbage)

((I thought it was summer break, 'cuz otherwise Jade wouldn't be in Hogsemeade.))
Jade's face fell and she stopped laughing entirely. She hadn't realised how much her little teasing could hurt this man's job. I'm going to hell for sure! She thought miserably. She wanted to say something to stick up for the Auror, but wasn't sure what rights or whatever she had. She decided that it would be best if she kept her mouth shut.

(This took place over summer, sorry for the confusion Mr. Thorne and everyone else)(i am fine with everyone here being here just no more so consider this thread closed from here forward)"Mr. Thorne I am allowed to arrest whom-so-ever I choose as long as I have a reason, and I was talking to her and she said the murder was a game as I understood it" Kevin said his voice slowly becoming annoyed at being reprimanded like this repetitively and even Glenn was ashamed. "And if you doubt that you can take a look the document paragraph eight sentence three. I was also authorized to bring and suspects in if I felt it was necessary, your jobs are not to judge me, they are to find if this girl is connected in anyway unless Mr. Howard can arrest me for arresting a minor which I am unaware he can do." Yes, this may go on his record but he had no problem with it because the worst that could happen is he gets verbally reprimanded about how he should be more careful about who he arrests. (I know she was talking about with Murder Mystery game Kevin just misunderstood and decided to be safe instead of letting a suspect slip through his fingers also please remember, yes she may just be a girl, but what is the 'eleven?' Children after attention which makes sense)*
*Just supporting my character with common IC knowledge that may start to cross people's minds-Thanks Kevin

Cody shook his head. He would certainly have to have a word with the Auror Training Center. If they were not teaching the Law as it should be taught, then no wonder the man didn't fully understand what he was doing.
"I must agree with Mr.Dabbage, Reynolds. Hogwarts should have been notified before she was taken away from Hogsmeade. No matter if school is in session, she is a minor and may not be arrested without Miss Walmsley's signiture. She may be taken in for questioning after Hogwarts was notified, but not before."

"They are to find if this girl is connected in anyway unless Mr. Howard can arrest me for arresting a minor which I am unaware he can do"
"I could if I wanted to Mr. Reynolds. But this is just a warning. Do not bring in minors unless you tell me so I can direct it to Miss Walmsey OR you tell her yourself. I don't know your punishment for this so... don't ask me," he said clearly to Kevin.
Actually he didn't know if he could arrest Kevin or not. He never arrested one of his Aurors before but if Kevin does something like this again he might just have to be arrested or in some other case.

"To be honest I am Doing my Job and Don't care what you think of it, she said that Ms. Thorne's Murder was a game, A GAME!" He yelled to Glenn and he continued "WHEN I WAS HIRED I SWORE TO PROTECT THIS COUNTRY FROM ANY THREAT DOMESTIC, OR FOREIGN, THAT IS MY JOB, LOOK AT THE AURORS IN THE WARS THEY USED THE KILLING HEX ON ANYONE WHO WAS JUST A SUSPECT! HOW UNETHICAL IS THAT! I AM TAKING THE REST OF THE DAY OFF AND IF YOU LET HER GO THAT ISN'T ANY OF MY BUSINESS, JUST REMEMBER WHAT I SAID WHEN THE 'ELEVEN' STRIKES AGAIN AND YOU ARE THE VICTIM!" By the time Kevin finished his ranting yell everyone in the atrium was staring that the group of staff. Kevin then spun around and started walking away from the idiots of the ministry thinking " Even Glenn doesn't believe me I though he and I were FRIENDS!"
(Kevin is only about 10 feet away from the group at this point if someone wants to go after him now would be your time before he leaves the ministry complex.)

((sorry dearies!))
For most of the argument, Malanda stood silently, her name popping up once or twice as the group seemed to grow in numbers. Another auror, whom she ignored completely at this point. Below her radar and of no importance to her. Thorne, however, was shot a more threatening glare than she had at Reynolds. Why was he apart of this conversation? He was a judge, not the Head of the Department of Magical Law, he had no say over the girl's arrest or the aurors. It did not matter that he was helping her. He was meddling in her affairs!
But then Armando, of her own department showed up and a whole new riot presumed. Walsmley would be damned if she let Reynolds walk away in that high and mighty performance of his.
"You!," she jabbed a finger at Cody's chest. "Get out of my business. Unless you want to challenge your Head for his department, this girl is not your concern unless she does stand trial." As if Walsmley was about to let that happen without proper cause!
"You," the finger was jabbed at Glenn. "Return to your duties. I have to deal with one blundering auror, I don't need two." Her gaze landed blazingly on the girl and Dabbage, she beckoned the two to follow her and strode after the high-horsed Reynolds.
"Oh, you will stop right now, young scoundrel, or you will loose your job." She called after him, closing the distance effectively. She was practically looming over him with all the hight of hers when she addressed him again. "There are proper procedures to arresting a minor! To arresting anyone. You need an investigation, unless she has immediately threatened your life, you need a warrant! You need to contact the parents of the accused. 'She said murder was a game as you understood it',"
If she had swelled like a bull before, she was a blowfish by now.
"As you understood it. That is not proper cause. You need actual reasoning. If you felt she was guilty, do an investigation! You are worried about the Elevens? How will this look when the press gets a hold of it if she is Innocent. Sure looks like it looks at this point. Idiot. Pure and utter idiot." A deep intake of breath. An effort to calm herself. Then in a calmer tone she addressed the girl, "are you a Slytherin, girl?"
Which would only make matters worse.

The Auror, Reynolds, as the name had been floated through out the conversation, seemed overly dedicated to the task at hand. He himself had been informed of recent events going on at the school, aside fromt he Thorne murder, this game, which was all it seemed to him, being one of them.
Relinquishing the desk he was borrowing back to its proper owner, he followed the beckoning of his Department Head but at a distance, his presence not at the moment needed, but also to stay out of the crossfire between the Auror and aformentioned Head. Both of which, at the moment seemed to have tempers more fitting a Ridegeback.
"Madam Walmsley, your temper please, lets remain professsional with this." Armando voiced from his trailing tail-end-Charlie position. Or, as professional as possible Armando thought, knowing full well if he'd been placed in the woman's shoes he would have gone off the deep end on him too.
