Summary: Percy and Katie inform Remus of Dora's kidnapping
The kidnapping had happened almost in front of their office. Percy couldn't imagine anyway this could look any worse, but of course, he couldn't worry about that. Instead, he focused on the case, treating it like any other, or as much as he could. He assigned Bell to the case, mostly because he figured with her marriage, she had to be involved in the Order somehow and that would appease Lupin.
The preliminaries were done, and then it was time to inform next of kin. Usually, Percy would have left the job to the Auror in charge of the case, but as it were, Lupin was in charge of the Order and Headmaster, and he felt that a personal visit was called for.
He and Bell flew to the school, and reached the Headmaster's office. Of course, Lupin was already there. One day Percy would learn what kind of spells Hogwarts had that would also warn the Headmaster.
Percy took a long look at Lupin. The man seemed weary and tired. Percy couldn't blame him. Visits in the middle of the night were never a good thing. "Headmaster, I'm sorry to have to tell you this, but your wife has been kidnapped by Greyback," he said without preambles. Keeping it cold and detached was the way to do it, that's what he'd been told. They never told him that the words tasted like bile in your mouth.
