Rebecca nodded "It's true" she smiled "I hope so too..." she trailed off while finishing her chocolate frog, she remembered she had Pasta on the table, she looked down and placed a forkful in her mouth, savouring the taste, she reluctantly swallowed.

*sobs*
 

Nathan drained the last of his coffee and stood up, leaving his dirty mug and chocolate frog wrapper on the table for someone else to clean up, like he always did. “Well I'd best be off.” He said, running a hand through his dark mop. “Becky. It was a lovely to finally get to talk to you. Alexa...” He paused and swallowed hard. He couldn't believe how painful he was finding leaving this place. It was going to be so odd not seeing Alexa everyday when he came into work. She was like family to him. “It's been an absolute pleasure working with you, love..” He leaned down to peck her cheek before he headed out the door.

Rebecca smiled sadly as she waved "Bye, have a good time, and drop in to see us" Rebecca called after him "Gosh, it happens so quickly" Rebecca told Alexa while she stood up to put Nathan's wrapper in the bin and wash his cup, this was the last time she'd ever clear up after him, she felt so depressed, she turned back to Alexa to see what she'd say.

Alexa really was going to cry, she'd changed so much, and now Nathan was leaving. Biting her lip, she sighed, "Your deserve this" She added, taking a step back, "but MLES will miss our big softie" Laughing sadly, she smiled for the better, "I don't think I could handle....page layouts" Shrugging, she tried to keep it together, "But, maybe change is what we all need"

Raising an eyebrow at Rebecca she shrugged, "The Aurors don't get that bad" Laughing at both of them, she shrugged, "

She'd thought saying goodbye was hard, this was just painful. Nathan was always there, frustrated in the background when Warren and her had a fight, supportive....oh. Now she was crying. As he kissed her cheek, she hugged him one last time and took a deep breath, "I'll come visit" She added, "Your not seeing the last of me" Smiling, she waved and watched him leave, biting her lip. Everyone was leaving, and as things were, she'd be going too.

Putting away their meal, because she doubted they'd eat much now, she sighed and nodded, "I know. I never thought.." She glanced at Rebecca and sighed, "He's better suited there. He's too compassionate for this place" Sitting down, she sighed, "I'm really going to miss him you know? Oh well." You couldn't hold onto much these days.

Rebecca sighed "Trust me, if you knew what kind of pay I was on, you'd probably strike" Rebecca laughed a little "Hey, don't cry" Rebecca walked over to her "He is" she said sadly "I know you are, we all are" Rebecca didn't want her to feel bad, she put an arm around Alexa, giving her a friendly hug.

Laughing, she smiled. Money had really never been a problem with her. Her inheritance had been large, and she'd always earnt a good keep. Alexa knew Rebecca was right, but it was still sad. She would miss him, the smirk, the constant good humor. Warming to the hug, she nodded, "Alright. Well, we didn't really get to talk much.....not with all this" Sighing, she got up and smiled weakly at her, "I'll see you around love, don't you dare go moving departments on me" Laughing, she waved and turned to leave the room.

Rebecca smiled sadly again "Ok, see you soon" she waved "I'll do my best" she said more to herself before leaving the room herself

Alexa closing the door behind her, she sighed slightly as the breakroom was empty. She had almost been hoping Warren had been in here. Looking at Becky, she frowned/ Rebecca had been so...angry, or distraught. The emotion had been hard to pinpoint, and when she'd cast the unforgivables, Alexa had felt her heart stop. Now, looking at her sleeping form her face was still slightly pained, but as her breathing grew deeper, the expression left a calm, albeit distant look to her. Sitting beside her, the auror groaned. There had been way too much drama today, and she was just too old for all of this.

Rebecca's eyes fluttered open after about ten minutes, she groaned as she looked sideways "What happened?" she asked Alexa upon noticing she was laid on a bed, she didn't have her wand, what was going on?

Alexa had never felt such shame and confusion and anger. It wasn't a usual combination. Watching Rebecca scrutinisingly, she shook her head, frowning as the calm face differed so massively to the anger she'd seen in the HQ. Gasping as she awoke, she lowered her wand to beside her, but instinctively tightening her grip. What happened? The frown deepened and she shrugged, "You and Forrester duelled" Her voice was even and cold, she had no idea how to react to this. How could Becky, always so calm and sweet, be capable to this? To blatantly oppose such a logical law! She could've killed him! And Forrester for not stopping her. There were going to be huge consequences...Sighing, she gave her a glass of water and tried a bleak smile, "You do you feel?"

Rebecca shook her head to wake herself up thoroughly "Me and Forrester?" she asked confusedly, then small parts of the duel came back to her "Oh my god, Forrester! Is he ok?" she asked fearfully pushing away the water "I hurt all over, but I want to know if Forrester is ok" she was worried about him, she remembered send the unforgivables, she put her hand to her head and laid down, she knew what had set her off, she probable should have told Forrester and Syd before dueling, so they were aware and she hadn't taken everything out on Forrester. She took a deep breath before looking around again "Where is my wand?" she asked.

Beckk luff
 

Alexa sighed and nodded, "Yes. You and Forrester duelled" It was rather frustrating as the recognition slowly came to Rebecca. As she pushed away, she water, Alexa rolled her eyes and sighed, "What's wrong with you?" She asked, quering her response. There had been no spells that hit Rebecca as far as she'd seen, Forrester had gotten the grunt of her anger from her perspective. "Forrester is fine." She told her firmly, pushing her back onto the bed. "Drink this" She murmured, watching her. When she asked for her wand, Alexa tried to keep the shock from her expression. "Your wand is safe. As of present, you don't need it" She was beginning to sound snappy. Sighing, she felt exhausted. Too much drama. "You need to need love. Whatever happened, it's in the past. For now, you need to rest" It was slightly pleading, but she really didn't want anymore arguments.

"Wrong with me? Nothing" Rebecca lied "Good, I was afraid I'd hurt him" she allowed herself to be pushed back onto the bed "Fine" she drunk a little of the water, put it down and then ignored it "I like having my wand with me, I don't like to be without it" Rebecca explained "Fine" she laid down staring at the ceiling, she really wanted to find Forrester and say sorry right now, but she wasn't sure if that would be enough...

Rolling her eyes, Alexa stared at her. It was a blatant lie and they both knew it. But she didn't want to talk, so she pursed her lips and smiled slightly when she leant back. "He's fine" She repeated almost reassuringly. Taking the cup from her, she placed on her lips and gave her an indignant look. Alexa wasn't the type to give up. "Drink" She commanded, her look not softening. "Your wand is...on the floor of the Headquarters. It's not going anywhere" Watching her intently, Alexa sighed. The feeling of not knowing what they could do to help was mutual.

Rebecca sat up and pulled her knees up to her chest, she hugged them and looked at the wall "I don't want to drink" she told Alexa "My wand..." Rebecca took a deep breath, Alexa seemed to be afraid of her, either that, or she was thinking Rebecca was crazy, Rebecca felt like she was dangerous now, she wanted to curse herself, so next time, if there was a next time, she would think twice.

Forrester made his way to the break room. "So the famous Rebecca!" Forrester stepped in and sat next to Alexa, his resident auror, and Rebecca. "I am fine!" Forrester said as he looked at a small fly that appeared all of a sudden and transformed back to one of Forrester's clones before disappearing all of a sudden. "I wasn't spying but you know now I take extra precautions" He explained. "Ok then tell me how are you? I mean I got a bit carried away with my duelling?" Forrester asked.

Rebecca looked around and jumped up "FORRESTER!" she ran over to him hugging him, she let go of him and straightened her top embarrassedly "Sorry" she mumbled before sitting down again "I understand" she said in answer to the clone "Me? Fine" she lied again, she didn't have the guts to tell him the truth "My duelling was... unexplainably bad" Rebecca blushed.

"Actually to tell you the truth you are the first person since years that have put a great fight. I was challenged to use methods I would never use in a duel... I had to plan ten steps ahead since the beginning of the duel" Forrester explained. "If I have chose to miss one trap or not use a certain trap at a certain time I would have been hit at least with one of your unforgivable... Fortunatly, I did place that water trap right?" Forrester asked. "I think it was my duel that was bad... And my judgement I should have stopped the duel but I was so excited that I didn't care about no one... I just wanted to show that I could escape unforgivables with ease!" Forrester revealed.

Rebecca smiled a little "Really?" she asked "Yeah, that water one kinda annoyed me" Rebecca told him with a small wince, hopefully Forrester would dismiss the wince "Unforgivables, about that, I'm sorry" she told him.

"Don't worry about it... I was pushed for once in my life to my limits" Forrester explained. "Now lets see if you learned your lesson... Why did you lose to me today?" Forrester asked.

Rebecca smiled, so calm, so nice, you wouldn't have thought he'd been so close to death a while ago "I lost... because... I didn't think ahead" she admitted sadly

"Exactly your attacks were too forward and easy to read also very very powerful but they were easy to dodge" Forrester explained to both Alexa and Becky. "You could see that my attacks weren't that straight. Each spell you used, was just my way to activate another one... I knew exactly how to drive you and control you and controled the duel so that I would win... One more trap and I could have sent you straight to St. Mungo's if I were ever to activate it" Forrester explained. "So what were you to do differently if you had to rebattle me?" Forrester asked.

Rebecca nodded "I get it" she thought before answering the nezt question "If I had to rebattle you, I would jump into a magic proof cage" she joked "Really, I would use other things around the room, and try to anticipate what you would do" Rebecca nodded

"Great than I think you got everything I wanted you to get from the training" Forrester explained. "You know can aim. Use basic charms and know that spells aren't everything in a duel. You need to strategise as well" Forrester added.

Rebecca smiled "Thanks Forrester, sorry about that though" she was referring to the unforgivables again.
