Madeline Speare!

[Nathan Leigh]

I walk from group of people to group of people in the Entrance hall, asking if they knew where I could find Madeline Speare.
I needed to speak with her, regarding the task the dark lord had set.
I didn't know if she was aware of it yet, and whether she was going to play along at all.
"Madeline Speare, where on earth are you?" I mutter to myself.

[Madeline Speare]

"Looking for me?" I call from the doorway.

[Ian Hunt]

I run into the Entrance Hall, just in time to see Nate about to meet up with the Speare girl.
"Nate, come on man, don't." I say hurriedly. "Back out now. You can't do this to the poor guy."

[Nathan Leigh]

"Back of Ian." I growl, then say to Speare. "You must be Madeline. We've been assigned to the same task. I think we need a word."

[Madeline Speare]

I nod and walk with him,"So, your Nathan I'm guessing?"

[Nathan Leigh]

"Yes," I smile slightly. "Nate."

[Ian Hunt]

I watch them sadly for a moment, but knowing I'd get nowhere if I tried to argue with him here.
I'd try and stop him in the dorms later.

[Annie Pettigrew]

I walked into the Entrance Hall and shouted "IAN HUNT GET YOUR ASS OVER HERE!"

[Madeline Speare]

"So," I start,"We're walking, start talking," I tell him

[Nathan Leigh]

"Somewhere private." I insist, dragging her into an empty classroom, and shutting, locking and hexing the door so no one would be able to eavesdrop, not even Ian. "How much have you been told?"

[Madeline Speare]

I shift from one foot to another,"Not much," I say,"All he said was I was going to be working with you to prove my loyality."

[Nathan Leigh]

A smirk tugs at the corner of my mouth but I manage to keep a straight face. "I see. You're a friend of Remus, aren't you?"

[Madeline Speare]

I nod mutely.

[Nathan Leigh]

"That means you're familiar with Lattimer, right?"

[Madeline Speare]

I nod again."Yes I am what does this have to do with anything?"

[Nathan Leigh]

"Well, as you may or may not be aware, dear Remus offended the dark lord. And the dark lord keeps grudges." I say, watching her closely to see if she'd catch my drift. "And a common conception is that to make someone pay, you go through the people that mean most to them. Are you with me so far?"

[Madeline Speare]

My eyes widen in fear,"No," I say,"Not Rin."

[Nathan Leigh]

"That's the orders." I shrug. "She's dead before she has the baby. That's the orders. And we mess with them a little first. Her and Lupin. That's what I was told and that's what we'll do, any objections and I'm obliged to teach you a lesson, are we clear?" I say, wand tip blazing by my side.

[Madeline Speare]

"The baby..." I whisper. I had forgotten all about that, I see the end of his wand blazing and I flinch remembering all to well what would happen if I didnt obey. I gulp and nod."Mess with them, what do you mean by that?"

[Nathan Leigh]

"I mean, play with them a little first. Corner them, hex them, but nothing too serious. Just so they suffer a little. So Lupin has a chance to wish he'd never stepped over the line." I say, sitting casually on a desk. "So, any idea's for our first plan of action?"

[Madeline Speare]

"One," I say sitting on a desk as well," Nathan, instead of going after them now, lets wait a while," I say.

[Nathan Leigh]

I raise an eyebrow. "And why would we do that?"

[Madeline Speare]

"It's simple really," I say playing with the ends of my hair,"They're getting married soon, let them have their fun." A smirk crosses my face,"Let them think they're safe, then." I hit the table causing a loud bang."We strike,"

[Nathan Leigh]

I look at her. "You must think I'm an idiot. I know you're their friend. A friend doesn't speak like that. Plus, your good friend, Ian, is not a tough nut to crack. All you have to do is tell him a few home truths, threaten him with his brother's life, oh, and threaten to harm you, of course, and he'll tell you everything. I know he's trying to save Lupin's pathetic family, and I know he's trying to get you to help him. I know that anything I say to you will make it's way back to him and get used to his advantage. I know that there is no way on earth I can trust you. So let's drop the act shall we?"

[Madeline Speare]

I smirk,"Who's acting?" I ask standing up walking towards him,"I'm doing this for my own personal gain," I tuck my hair behind my ears."Do you really think I'll let Lattimer have him?" I half laugh,"I love him, more than she ever could." I place my hand on the table as if examining it."We get rid of her, he'll be so upset it'll drive him insane and when he's on the brink of self-destruction, who will be there to save him?" I smile coyly."Me." I shake my head my bangs falling into my face,"He'll fall in love, and when that happens I'll make him pledge his undying faith in the Dark Lord." I twirl my wand in my hand,"one way or another."

[Nathan Leigh]

I watch her for a long while. "I still don't trust you."

[Madeline Speare]

"And I dont trust you," I say playing with my locket,"So we're even."

[Nathan Leigh]

"Not even close." I say, narrowing my eyes. "We strike soon. I suggest you go after Lattimer. Lupin's mine to torture. I'm going to the boys dorms tomorrow night and I'll corner him there."

[Madeline Speare]

I nod slowly,"Nate, can you just think about what I said? Please?"

[Nathan Leigh]

"I have." I say coolly.
