"Maybe you should have a seat,"
Ellie had been about to stop Morgana in her actions with a downplaying wave of her hand when she, her sister, reached for a bar stool that had been propped up against the bathroom wall and helped her getting seated, but soon Ellie realized that might not have been the worst idea actually.
Still concentrated on her stomach to not have it emptying itself right in front of somebody else, her just gotten to know twin sister at that, Ellie wouldn't have noticed the gears turning in that one's head even if she had made it shown on her features in the first place.
"I might be a little crazy, but there's something I want to try...,"
These words were somewhat sounding strange to her, yet Ellie barely even heard them nor felt the touch on her shoulder as she had started to feel worse again, almost as if that something that caused her to feel miserable and sick was a sea wave, coming and going as it may. Then suddenly, something happened with that imaginative wave in her mind. At first, it came back with a power as if to flood her with emotions that were a lot more of her kind, though almost too much to handle even for herself. But then the wave calmed bit by bit, still in kind of a flow, yet not so unpredictable and wild anymore. It didn't take long until Ellie felt much better indeed, yet there was a feeling that this wasn't only because she had been seated, especially by suddenly remembering her sister's words from before.
"Better?"
"What... was that?" Ellie asked hesitantly before suddenly jumping out of her seat as if newborn and, much more like herself, repeated: "I mean, Whoa! What WAS that?!" With an enthusiastic move of her arms, she placed her own hands onto Morgana's shoulder. "Can we do that again?!" Whatever it was, she would be willing to take the risk of feeling sick again if that meant to find out they were sharing kind of a twin superpower.

"I mean, Whoa! What WAS that?!" "Can we do that again?!"
Sighing out of relief that her impromptu plan had worked, Morgana didn't know what to do in Ellie's presence of sheer enthusiasm. She simply stood there and grinned as the blonde girl excitedly grabbed her shoulders. Seeing Ellie back to her happy, bouncing self made Morgana satisfied, even if she felt the cloud of darkness looming in the nearby distance.
"To be honest, I'm not quite sure what this is myself. But whatever this is, it seems to be interconnecting us somehow. Like some sort of a Yin and Yang effect...," Morgana shrugged as her lips pursed together in thought. She wished she had all the answers, but unfortunately this was all new to her. Morgana took a few steps back and looked at Ellie again, up and down, and then up again. They appeared to look more alike than Morgana had initially thought back at the bookstore. Two completely different beings, connected. This whole thing was completely surreal, "...Everyone's going to see how alike we look beside each other. I can't believe I've gone to Hogwarts this whole time, not knowing you were there all along...do...do you really think we're related?" Morgana revisited the idea. She had been in shock and denial in the bookstore, yet now as the situation progressed and the more time she spent with Elle, the more she realized that she needed her Yang.

Fully back in Ellie-mode, she didn't notice that her overexcitement was slightly overwhelming her other half. They still had only just started to know each other, after all. And unlike herself, Morgana seemed to be the reserved kind of person, which was, of course, totally fine with Ellie but something she wasn't used to dealing with, especially since she usually found herself surrounded by people who were as giggly nerdy as she was.
"To be honest, I'm not quite sure what this is myself. But whatever this is, it seems to be interconnecting us somehow. Like some sort of a Yin and Yang effect...,"
Ellie gave her an expression as if barely able to deal with her excitement about that news herself, which probably was quite the case. However, this time, she tried to pull herself together to not scare her sister away before they even could have made it to the point where they shared a deeper conversation. She just wanted to know everything. What Morgana liked and not. What her favorite color was. And if she was afraid of spiders or, just like her, been one of these kids that played with them while everyone else gave them a wide berth. When Morgana took a few steps back, Ellie slightly drew her hands back, fearing that she already had been too much for the girl.
"...Everyone's going to see how alike we look beside each other. I can't believe I've gone to Hogwarts this whole time, not knowing you were there all along...do...do you really think we're related?"
"We must be!" Ellie responded enthusiastically again. She just couldn't help it. "I mean, look at us." Not only did she turn herself around towards one of the mirrors hanging over the sinks, but also her sister. Yet, while her own face was full of delight, Morgana's looked rather sorrowful. As soon as Ellie realized that, the smile on hers slightly faded, matching her sister's features even more all of a sudden. "Would...," she started hesitantly, then gave herself a yank for she had to know. "Would you not like us to be related?" Please say no, she thought as some of these negative thoughts from before seemed to come back all of a sudden.

Morgana's shoulders were suddenly swiveled with gentle force in the direction of the lavatory mirror. Scanning her dark, weary features her eyeballs glanced to the side at Ellie's reflection which was a much lighter, happier version than hers. This revelation was a miracle than anything. Morgana felt that she should be much happier than what she was. Yet, her heart weighed heavy of hurt and deception. Why on earth would a secret this amazing have been kept from her for her entire life?
"Would...," "Would you not like us to be related?"
Morgana drew an inward breath in her defense. Ellie's query was definitely not the case, and she felt the need to make it known immediately, "To be honest...I've always wanted a sister. I don't know what your childhood was like, but for me it was lonely," It was as if Morgana's heart was opening up like never before for the very first time as Ellie had reached into Morgana and brought forth a piece that had yet to be discovered, "Often I talked to myself. Most times, my company was the books in our home's library. If you're truly of my blood, then why has it been kept a secret this entire time?" Morgana began to shake with anger as her nose scrunched up in her emotionally railed state. They would have had to come from the same mother, and the fact that her mother had kept her true sister from her struck Morgana to her core.

The little time it took Morgana to answer her question, probably not even seconds yet it felt like an eternity to Ellie, she felt her heart heavy as a stone until, finally, her sister spoke up, giving her not only release but also the urge to just wanting to embrace her in a tight hug, which, of course, Ellie didn't do as she didn't want to overwhelm her even more.
"To be honest...I've always wanted a sister."
Morgana's next words, however, brought back a feeling of sadness. Not for herself, for Ellie's childhood had been anything but lonely with her wonderful dad around, but instead for her sister, who seemed to have ended up with the less loving part of their parents. Ellie had always been wondering what kind of person her mother might have been, even though she had never felt like there was missing something in their - maybe not rich as for living conditions but surely as for love - life, but now she wasn't so sure anymore if she wanted to find out. She only could guess now why her father had never talked about her.
"I don't know what your childhood was like, but for me it was lonely,""Often I talked to myself. Most times, my company was the books in our home's library. If you're truly of my blood, then why has it been kept a secret this entire time?"
Even more than before, Ellie wanted to embrace her sister in a hug, and, this time, she almost would have done so if not, suddenly, a familiar voice was interrupting.
"Ellie? Are you still... Oh!" Dray stopped in the middle of the question when her head peeked through the bathroom door, realizing that her girlfriend wasn't alone in there. "Sorry, was just getting worried you might not be okay," she then added, about to leave them their space and retreat, though.

"Ellie? Are you still... Oh!" "Sorry, was just getting worried you might not be okay,"
Dray had busted through the bathroom entrance without warning. The sudden sound of her voice entering the space gave Morgana a tiny jolt as her attention was brought to her Tournament teammate. Morgana looked from Dray to Ellie, whose face grew from concern to the brightest light in the room at the sight of Dray's presence. Feeling the love and adoration Ellie held in her heart for this girl, Morgana felt guilty to have been holding her time up in this bathroom for so long. Bother, nuisance, always in the way... Anything that was positive and wonderful about the moments she had shared prior dissolved as her insecurities creeped in.
"It's alright, I should clean this mess off myself anyways - how embarrassing," Remembering the stain on her lap, Morgana's gaze panned between both girls to address them as she chuckled through her flustered, apologetic smile. Whipping herself around towards the sink, Morgana hit the tap on and water began to pour down into the porcelain bowl. Grabbing the paper towel pieces that laid in a dry place beside the tap, Morgana suddenly felt eyes fixating on her as she turned her shoulder to bring Ellie into view giving her a pitied look that many people gave Morgana. One she was typically used to.
"I'll be fine, you should return to the bar with Dray. We don't get to go on trips like this often, might as well make them last, right?" Morgana gave Ellie a not-so-convincing look affirming her that she should leave with Dray. If anything, Morgana wanted her to stay. Yet, the last things she wanted to do was be in the way of others having a good day. Others like Ellie, Dray, or even Sherlock.

At first, the sight of Dray had been overlaying some of her concern and worries about her twin sister, not because Ellie would think of them to be less important but because it was just her nature not to hold back any feeling that emerged, even though, sometimes, that would mean to be able to focus on only one at a time. But then Ellie realized the sudden wave of negative emotions coming at her, sending her back into this former state of feeling concerned and worried immediately, mixing with another feeling as well. Guilt. The last thing Ellie wanted was to make her sister feel bad or even like she would be a burden.
"It's alright, I should clean this mess off myself anyways - how embarrassing,"
Ellie wanted to say something, but, suddenly, her own feelings of guilt also brought back this uncomfortableness she had been experiencing before running into Morgana. This time, however, she knew where this was coming from. Those were not her feelings, but Morgana's. Unfortunately, that knowledge even worsened this one feeling that was her own, the guilt. And the worst part of it was that she felt unable to speak at all, fearing that anything she said might make the situation even worse.
"I'll be fine, you should return to the bar with Dray. We don't get to go on trips like this often, might as well make them last, right?"
While this feeling of guilt was still feeding on Ellie, the uncomfortableness obvious written on her face, it was Dray who replied for her part, after all.
"Hey, it's all cool, really. You two just go on with your chat." She gave Ellie and especially Morgana an encouraging smile. "Doesn't happen all day that we meet our twin sibling, right? Don't worry, I've got some company at the bar. Sherlock and I started discussing the song choice for our next gig." That had been a lie, but a good-natured one. Dray didn't want the girl to feel bad, thinking that she was stealing times of togetherness from Ellie and her. "See ya later," Dray added with a quick smooch on Ellie's cheek and a wave towards Morgana before she headed back outside, granting them no time to object or hold her back.
Ellie sighed. "I'm sorry." Honestly, she didn't exactly know herself for what, but she felt miserable about causing these negative feelings to her twin sister, although she was aware of the fact that this probably was all part of their mysterious connection, so she tried to focus her mind on that instead. "Do... you think we'll ever find some kind of... balance?" A light chuckle came back to her face as she looked at Morgana, hoping to send out some of her natural spark with that. Then, before Morgana could have said anything at all, Ellie finally gave into this urge of just wrapping her arms around her sister, if she wanted it or not.

*** Nathaniel and Callum enter the Inn ***
The boy was, of course, overwhelmed with the whole situation. Nathaniel couldn't blame him. He wasn't sure, to be honest, how he would have react in a situation like Callums but at least he was glad that the young man allowed him to escort him to the pub.
Just when they had stepped in he led the boy to a free table and forced him gently to sit down. "Wait a minute, please. I'll be right back." Nathaniel didn't gave the boy a chance to react to his words and headed over to the bar. "Rosmerta, my dear, please give me two shots - the strongest one you got - and a whiskey." He took a look back over his shoulder to Callum while his drinks were prepared. He was sure that he knew what was going on in his head. It surely wasn't his little brother - it was Anya! The mysterious girl who was able to accidently starting a magical storm. "Strenuous day, hm?," Madam Rosmerta's voice called his attention back to the bar. "Let's just say uncommon, dearie," he answered smiling. "Oh, and please, write it onto my bill."
He took the glasses and went back to Callum. "Here you are! Maybe you might feel a bit better after this," he said and offered him one of the small glasses with the shots. "You're worrying about your girl, right?"

"Hey, it's all cool, really. You two just go on with your chat."
By the time Dray had spoken up, Morgana had quickly snapped her saddened gaze to the disposable towel in her hands, mopping up the excess water and suds that resided on her hands from being washed. Her hands froze mid wipe, and slowly Morgana moved her shock complexion upwards. She didn't look back at the girls, but she brought them into view as she gazed into the mirror in front of her. Dray spoke a few more words to the girls, yet Morgana was overwhelmed and the voices around her muffled for a moment as she resonated with what was happening. For once, Morgana felt like people saw her. For once, Morgana felt like people cared about her. Morgana knew that this feeling wasn't just Ellie connecting with her. She felt a genuine level of value that she hadn't received in a very long time, and at this realization her heart began to soften a little.
"I'm sorry."
Tossing the towel into a nearby bin, Morgana finally twirled herself around in place to face Ellie once more. There was a desperation to tell this girl before her that there was no need to be sorry, and wanted to explain her internalized irrational fears and judgements. Though, that would be a lot for one person to take, and Morgana felt like she had already exhausted this girl simply from this confusing yet amazing connection they shared. Sighing into a half hearted grin, Morgana placed a hand carefully on Ellie's shoulder as to try to not trigger anything else.
"Do... you think we'll ever find some kind of... balance?"
The most light and gentle chuckle Morgana had ever heard filled the entire lavatory. Suddenly, she felt a jolt to her chest. It wasn't painful, but more of a playful poke. Like an invisible ray of light sparking from Ellie into Morgana's heart. There was no explaining what it was they shared or how to even control it yet. Though, the more time Morgana spent in Ellie's presence, the more she saw this as a blessing rather than a curse.
"Maybe, I really don't know. I've never seen this kind of magic happen to anyone else. Perhaps there's a book on what we have? Or maybe one of the professors might know how to help-,"
Then, just as fast as the playful poke hit her chest, Ellie felt compelled to have wrapped her arms around Morgana in a friendly embrace. Arms stretched out to her side, Morgana was unsure of how to react at first. She wasn't used to receiving hugs or gestures of affection, not from anyone. Yet, something from within told her that everything was okay and that this was where she was supposed to be right this moment. So Morgana accepted the embrace by wrapping her own arms around Ellie's torso. Morgana wasn't sure how long the hug had lasted for, but she didn't end up minding at all. It felt nice to be wanted.

Callum was not even moving a single muscle in his face when the man spoke to him again before leaving for the bar. As soon as he was out of earshot, though, Callum exhaled a breath of annoyance, shaking his head in disbelief. He just wanted to leave and search for Anya, for fuck's sake. And now he was stuck with this guy of all people. Just great.
"Here you are! Maybe you might feel a bit better after this,"
At the returning voice, Callum turned his head back from the window. Making no move to receive the offered glass, the man was at least clever enough to just place it in front of him instead.
"You're worrying about your girl, right?"
Originally, Callum had had no intention to even touch that drink nor anything this man would offer him to make him talk, yet the sudden confrontation of just that made him throw this plan overboard, after all. Without any word, Callum took the shot glass in front of him - not aware of the liquid inside - and downed it in one go.
It took only a second until a feeling of getting burned from inside made his face go red and his eyes wet, and only another second to pretend that this wasn't his first time drinking such stuff. However, he was still not going to talk with the man in front of him. Instead, Callum shoved the empty glass away from him and gave the man a look as if to silently ask if they were finished now.

Nathaniel had to admit that Callum was exceptionally talented in behaving like a pissed off teenager. Someone should confer a decoration to this boy! (Attention - sarcasm!) At least there was something he failed. It was obvious that the young man never had have a drink like this before. But Nathaniel kept his mouth shut. No need to rub it in his face.
Again Callum gave him that annoyed look as if he wanted to say 'Are we finished?'. He had to spend a lot of care to not smirk or even laugh at the boy's behavior. But if he wanted to learn more about Anya's powers he had to get along with this little maverick. Of course, he could tell him that he was supposed to become his teacher but in his mind it was better to conceal that fact. (And to be honest - he didn't want to miss Callum's face when he later will find out this little detail.) Nathaniel took his shot and also emptied it one go.
"Listen, I won't force you to stay here but maybe you need someone to calm you down a bit, hm?" Then he took his whiskey but didn't take a nip. Instead of that he started to stroke the rim of the glass with his right forefinger. "You want to find her. But you might not if you just run away haphazard without any clue." Nathaniel knew where the girl had run to because he had followed her. But he didn't know if she was still inside of that hut or if she had left it on a hidden path. And it just didn't feel right to took Callum to that hut to search for Anya because he had tell them to go away from that place less than an hour before. (It was not that he personally really cared about those stupid rules but it might be better to fit the mould of a teacher at Hogwarts.) Nathaniel was sure that Callum would listen to him even if he tried his best to be the stubborn student. "First of all you had to try to understand her. To me it looked like she had become very emotional. Anger. Fear. And then hell was breaking loose." He stopped for a moment and now finally took a sip of his drink. Then he became very serious and looked at Callum eye to eye. "Do you know what had made her so mad?"

"Maybe, I really don't know. I've never seen this kind of magic happen to anyone else. Perhaps there's a book on what we have? Or maybe one of the professors might know how to help-,"
For the while their embrace lasted - and Ellie tried to stretch it as long as she could before it would feel awkward - it seemed that both sisters could forget the world around them and just appreciate what they had found in each other; The probably most precious thing in the world. At least, it was for Ellie. If there was just one thing that she had felt missing in her life, then that was a sibling. Maybe that was because, deep down, she'd always known? One soul reaching out to another, without having been aware that they belonged, for they might be of the same kind while different at the same time. Like this Yin and Yang symbol, Ellie once had seen.
As soon as their arms were loosening the grip at each other, without one ditching the other but instead releasing at the same time, her sister's words from before came back to her mind. "I'm so ready to find out more about this," Ellie eventually stated with determination in her voice. She'd never been so involved before to seek out the library or a professor, for that matter, probably never at all. She was no slacker, well, granted, maybe sometimes, but surely no grind as well. That didn't mean she would be judging anyone who was, of course. It was just what she naturally wasn't. "Uh - can you think of any section with books like that? Or even a teacher who could help?" Honestly, she had no idea where to even find the books of her elective subjects, sometimes not even the books with her own homework in it; If she did them in the first place, that was. But if someone asked her for the brand new edition of her virtual Pokedex, a database of her virtual pet fighters, Ellie could straight lead them in the right direction of the world wide web. Yeah, her priorities were not exactly to her teacher's liking, which was why she also had no idea which teachers were helpful or not. To her, all of them liked to send her into detention class a lot.

"Uh - can you think of any section with books like that? Or even a teacher who could help?"
Morgana's forehead wrinkled as she tried to conjure up some sort of first step. To be frank, Morgana had no idea where to even begin. What kind of books would be able to explain what exactly was happening to them? She wondered if the professors would think that their claims were absurd. Though the only thing she knew was that this was real. The magical connection between her and Ellie was now physically impacting their lives and a need for control over this power was necessary. After searching for an answer, Morgana's concerned gaze returned to Ellie as she thought of the only suggestion worth trying, "I guess we could talk to Professor Boyle. He's been helping me with, other things," Morgana figured she would leave the part out where she believed her name was possibly forged and passed into the Goblet Of Fire without her consent until she knew what was exactly going on, "Not sure what exactly he will be able to do for us, but It's a start. What do you think?" Morgana shrugged as she consulted with Ellie on her opinion.

Callum found it very annoying, to say the least, to watch the guy in front of him as he emptied his glass without flinching at all. If he'd known what was inside, Callum would have done so as well; certainly. Not that it was of importance or felt like a threat to his manhood - maybe only a little -, but instead, anything about this man, especially right now, was pissing him off.
"Listen, I won't force you to stay here but maybe you need someone to calm you down a bit, hm?"
Callum gave the man an irritated and, at the same time, annoyed look as if to silently give him to understand that, of all people around, he would be the last he needed to calm him down. Besides, he didn't need anyone to calm him down. Why was everyone treating him like he was a rampaging monkey? Okay, going for his brother's throat probably had been a little bit over the top, but Scorpius was alright and surely had been overacting like he usually did.
When the man in front of him went on talking, Callum's gaze eventually dropped down to the table; Not like someone who was feeling ashamed but simply because he ran out of steam to even look this guy in the face.
"You want to find her. But you might not if you just run away haphazard without any clue."
With a stern face, Callum kept his eye contact with the table. This guy had some nerve, talking of Anya like all he wanted was to offer help. Not only didn't Callum need any help, especially not from this man, but he also wasn't buying it. This man had an alarming interest in her. An angry snort left Callum's throat, yet not loud enough to send a clear warning that, with this topic of conversation, things would only get worse between them.
"First of all you had to try to understand her. To me it looked like she had become very emotional. Anger. Fear. And then hell was breaking loose."
At that, Callum's eyes were wandering back upward, after all, still that stern expression on his face, though. As if he would have been too stupid to read emotions from his girlfriend's face. So, what was the sense of this? He snorted again, this time louder.
"Do you know what had made her so mad?"
"Why, couldn't you guess? I thought you're so smart," Callum suddenly spoke up with a sarcastic tone, then raised from his chair. "Mind your own frigging business," he added with one last turning around to the man before finally leaving without any more word, not waiting or even bothering a reaction. While exiting through the door, Callum couldn't help but show an exaggerated shake of his head, along with one of these eye rolls that came just naturally when in a situation with someone trying to talk sense into him, like he would need that. Also, while they were wasting time inside here, Anya might be going through hell, thinking that nobody was there for her. What gave her that idea anyway? However, he had to find her.

Ellie felt relieved seeing her sister being as clueless as she was herself, even though that fact didn't get them anywhere, but it was a good feeling to be clueless together, or better than looking like the fool. However, they could find out stuff together. "I guess we could talk to Professor Boyle. He's been helping me with, other things,""Not sure what exactly he will be able to do for us, but It's a start. What do you think?"Of all teachers Morgana could have suggested, why did it have to be Professor Boyle? Not only was he the one she had to see the most for detention class, being part of his special club, but also was there something about him that gave her the creeps. Ellie tried to hide that shock about her sister's suggestion, but since she'd never been good at holding back any emotion, she sucked at this, as well.
"Uh, I think... that's a start?" Ellie stammered, actually only repeating Morgana's words from before. "So--- are we gonna do the draw the straw thing?" she then added with a light chuckle, trying to ease herself with some joking. Assuming that Morgana was wealthier off with Professor Boyle, having mentioned something about receiving help from him - almost unbelievable, though -, Ellie was hoping for her to lead the way into the lion's den voluntarily. Wow, she never thought to seek Boyle of her own free will. Huh, there probably was a first time for everything.

Ellie made Morgana chuckle slightly, something that many could not manage to do. Unlike some, Ellie was lighthearted. She was also genuine. Morgana could sense that her sister had a soul of sunshine and meant no harm with any words she spoke. After all, her reaction to Morgana's suggestion was understandable. Boyle had surrounded himself with quite a reputation among the students he frequently scolded in the corridors and in detention. He seemed rather stern, yet Morgana felt he was easily misjudged. There had to be more to someone than being a harsh rule dealer.
"I guess if we want to figure out what exactly we are, then time is of the essence," The corner of Morgana's mouth curled into a half grin as she gestured towards the lavatory door. A sense of dread overcame her as she was hesitant to immerse herself once more into the socially awkward bustle of the inn. Though, this time she wasn't walking out alone. And that was nice.

Nathaniel hadn't really thought that Callum would open himself to him, a stranger. Probably he wouldn't do that as well if he would have been in the boy's situation. (He didn't open himself to anybody. There was no need for doing so!) He only hoped Callum would remember that he offered him his help just in case he would ever seek for advice or a helping hand. After all they would see each other more often in the upcoming future - the boy just didn't know it now!
"Why, couldn't you guess? I thought you're so smart," Ah, finally he decided to say something and look up. It looked like the table was more stubborn than the teen. "Mind your own frigging business," Now angry kid stood up. Okay, at the end it was exactly what he had expected. Earning someone's trust needed time and patience. "Don't worry, I will!," he answered while he took his glass and acted like he would drink a pledge to Callum. And yes, he will... At least it was his intention. But now he couldn't stop thinking about the incident.
Finally he emptied his glass, stood up and went to the bar to pay his bill - including a very lavish tip - and also left the Inn. Maybe he should start a Research about powers like Anya's. At the moment this was all he can do to find out more about the girl's mystery.

Sirius head to the bar and got himself another hot chocolate. Luckily there were enough free tables at the moment because many people had left the Inn to see what was going on outside.
A few minutes later the older Malfoy brother also entered the Broomsticks accompanied by a man Sirius hadn't seen before. He tried to observe Callum and the stranger betweenwhiles but he couldn't hear what they were talking about. To be exact it had to be said what the stranger was talking about. The student just sat there in front of this man and looked like he wanted to ignore him. (Or to wring his neck.) Poor Callum. Obviously the argument between the Malfoy brothers didn't went well for the older one. Maybe he should try to ask Scorpius what happened when they would see each other the next time? It was no question of if they would see each other - just a matter of time. Boyle was someone to rely on.
It didn't took long til Callum stood up and left the Pub. Sirius was sure that he would have done the same if he would have been in the other ones situation. The shadowy stranger also exited.
Sirius just wanted to enjoy the rest of his hot chocolate until it would be time to went back to the train station. He still didn't want to bump into Shane. He knew it was not fair to lie to one of his old friends. So he had decided to avoid him for a while. Maybe Shane could put one and one together if they spent time together.
Suddenly the door opened again and a man in a uniform entered the building. He observed the whole room meticulous. At least his gaze stopped at Sirius and he approached to him. "I'm sorry, but your trip is over. We are instructed to sent you and your shoolmates back to Hogwarts ealier than the stipulated date. Don't worry. Just head to the platform and wait for the train." Sirius just nodded while he emtied his cup. The badge on the man's uniform told him that he was a member of the Ministry of Magic. The man left the Inn and probably would keep watch for other students around Hogsmeade. Sirius had been the only student in the Broomsticks at the moment. He was sure that the Ministry appeared because of the magic storm outside. But at the moment there was nothing more to do than to follow the Ministry's instructions so he stood up and left the pub.
