It had Mr. Morgenstern's voice, so he knew it probably had to do with the hounds. What had they done? Broken into the coffee shop?

When Kitty finally got down to Level 10—not the easiest of treks, by the way—he was kind of over looking for these dogs. He made it to the hallway with Mr. Morgenstern. He saw a dog lying on the ground... maybe they had eaten something they weren't supposed to, like the ones in the Quidditch and Gobstones office, but as Kitty got closer....

A gasp escaped Kit's mouth, and he covered the eyes of Mrs. Scuttlebuns, still sitting in the makeshift jumper-sling thrown across his shoulder. "Oh no..." He kneeled next to the dog and fought the urge to cry as he examined the body. He pulled out a pen from his pocket and used it to move some of the fur from around the wounds on the dog's neck to get a better look. "O-okay, well... the goal of... whatever did this... mustn't have been to eat it, or else... the body would be in much worse shape than this. Did it just want its blood..? Vampires don't usually attack dogs, do they? Unless... vampire dog?!"

As the man waited for his team's response, he went on to inspect the dead hound with the tip of his wand, and saw the puncture wounds on the creature's neck. The wound and the placement matched that of a vampire's doing. Albert's mind went into deep thinking mode as he got his spy camera out and started taking pictures while collecting as much data as he could from the previous days, to the present, and to all the things that he'd heard that happened in the Ministry while he recuperated in St. Mungo's. With just the hound, lifeless in front of him, he was able to narrow down his hypothesis. Albert's brows creased even deeper, his mouth forming a thin line as he went about his theory, pocketing back his camera.

Soon enough, one of the youngest in his Division arrived, and wasn't surprised to see Flannigan... and Mrs. Scuttlebuns.

Albert flattened himself against the corridor wall, as he let the kid do his investigation, it was a Sentinel's job, after all. What he did not approve was the use of his pen. The division head closed his eyes and shook his head in disbelief. "Don't tell me you forgot your wand, Mr. Flannigan?" he said, gesturing his head towards the offending stylus that Kitty was holding to investigate the dead hound. It felt like he was back in Durmstrang again, teaching the most bull-headed students that ever existed.

The man pressed his tongue against his cheek in thought as he listened to what the young sentinel had to say. "Hard to say what they wanted exactly, but clearly, this is a message for what's to come. A warning." Albert pushed himself off the wall, and encased the dead hound in a charmed, protective bubble, and started to levitate it off the ground. "We have to go back to Level 4, and convene with the rest of the department. This is not looking good, nor is this place safe." he said, matter-of-factly as he began to make his way back to their department, with the dead hound levitating in front of him. "We should also alert the MLE. Do you know anyone from that department?" Albert ought to know at least one, but the department tend to change a lot since they were always all over the place, and it had been years ago since Albert stopped trying to keep track of them.
