Re: Albus, Severus
Albus rolled his eyes. "That would be a terrible crime." He raised his robe showing his socks. One had pink and white stripes, while the other was white with pink hearts. "How could you live without this?"
He winked at Gellert before turning to Severus. "She didn't. She can't Apparate there, never had access. She only had access through the Floo at Godric's Hollow and they cut that off when she disappeared. I asked."
He knew well because they were the same in place in all the houses of the Heads of the Departments. "No Apparition, no Floo, and two Aurors as security. One Auror was killed, the other was left alive, presumably to tell Harry about Lily."
He sighed. "The point is that if they manage to kill the Chief and the Minister, we are at a standstill, things stop working for weeks, enough for him to gain control." He looked at Gellert. "All right, you deal with Narcissa. Severus, I've told Bill to bring people inside. You might need them. I'm going to make myself Chief. I miss that title. Last time they took it away from me, Tom got in power. This time, he'll have to find and kill me."
