Dora started a bit when she heard a man's voice behind the door... Well, that wasn't Becca!

She strainghtened up her robes and slowly opened the door. Once she caught sight of the man she fought the urge to grimace. He was sitting at Becca's desk and she was nowhere in sight. "Hello, sir. I am Dora Druery, Locked Room Division Head. I was looking for Becca. DId she go on maternity leave?" she asked and placed a hand on her own baby bump.

She was in. Benjamin pulled his chair back to where it was before. "Hello Ms. Druery." he responded quickly and summoned her file from the rack.

Twenty year old, former Gryffindor, a Metamorphmagus and one year experience in this Ministry. That's all he wanted, other informations are unnecessary for him.

"Yes, she is on maternity leave and I'm your temprorary Dept. Head, Benjamin Troy. Call me Mr. Troy" he said, "So..how can I help you?" he asked, his sharp scanner eyes fully focussed on the job that he had in his hands right now.

Dora watched the man summon her file and scan it... that was unsettling. He was toooo buisnesslike for her.

Trying to smile she said, "Nice to meet you, Troy. But, erm, no... I wanted to discuss a personal matter with Mrs. Lee, so I am sorry to have bothered you." She shifted uncomfortably and said, "I do hope you enjoy working with us down here. May I now be excused?" Creepy dude is really freaking me out...

Maybe it was going to be easier if he mentioned her that he shared a tea party time with her husband. Otherwise he was going to be forced to make her give him what he wanted. Yes, maybe this sounded fierce but Ryan was never fierce, actually what he meant by making someone make something was a way different tecnique than force and it never included rudeness especially if there was a woman in question. Becca Lee. So obvious.

Walking hurriedly out his respective Hall of Prophecy, Ryan made his way to the office of Department Head for his, so simple for himself, request. Once he was right at the door, hardly audible voices hit his ears which he ignored the next moment as he knocked the door.

Personal matters in the Office room? Not a good habbit.

He raised his eyes upto her, "It's okay Ms Druery, you can go now. But expect me soon in your division." He has a lot to catch up. Especially this particular Locked Room. He wondered what on earth the Ministry needs this one. Strange!
Another knock on the door. "YES, Come in" Benjamin leant back on the chair as checking on his wrist watch, calculating every seconds. Time is so presicous for him, no compromises in it.

Why on earth were her palms sweating as though she was back at Hoggies in front of the Headmaster?! This dude made her so nervous she couldn't stand it. Nodding her head at the man she smiled and said, "Yes, sir. I look forward to you paying us a visit in the Locked Room." She was lying through her teeth of course, but oh well you have to kiss some people's... yeah out of the office she went as fast as her preggers little self could go.

Taking a look at the pics on the table uninteresedly, he nodded his head, "Thankyou. If you dont mind, can you tell the person whoever knocked the door, to get in fast?" he asked, turned his gaze to her again.

Ryan snickered a little for he was expecting a kind woman's voice to respond, surely enough, not something like that which highly suggested 'I am the authority' all over again. In this Ministry, it looked like, he needed not to see the sort to figure out them as the authority type just hearing them pronounce one word was enough.

Hopefully he never had any problem before while facing this kind, so he only hoped this was some new guy not Becca Lee's new state right after an all wrongly done surgery request. Stepping inside room he observed around at first place, than glanced at the two person inside room.

There was Dora, he gave her a quick nod, and that guy whom he had no idea about except that he looked like he would never let others draw a light profile of him. Well...Ryan could not help but smile at that point for the man's air was totally contradicting with the room's.

''Good day, people!'' the blond man said with a lively tone ''I hope things are going well for you''

Benjamin watched the man greeting them as if he was in a breakroom or some sort of fair. People should really know how to behave to their higher official and inside the office room.

"What if it is not so, Mr.........?" His eyes were fully focussed on him, not satisfied with his approach "I'm Benjamin Troy, your temp. department head in-charge, good day to you too." He knew the right way of approach, right?

Ryan merely eyed the man before he could say anything, the usual smile still remained on his face despite Authority Troy's sarcastic remark. Oh, well he should have expected that. ''Ryan Chambers from Hall of Prophecy'' he completed his sentence calmly ''At this case then i would like to help you on it, if, of course, you happen to wish my assistance...'' it used to be a part of his old job after all. ''...Mr. Benjamin Troy'' an interesting name ''I am honoured to meet you'' he offered him his hand.

"Good, Ryan. I didn't know you're doing social services too" he said, gathered up the pics from the table and put them into one of the drawers of the front table. Sentiments and family stuffs are not allowed in Troy's territory.

"Well..Ryan, Glad to meet you too." He shook his hand, formally, "So...what else?" he asked, expecting his quick reply.

''Social services...'' Ryan repeated kindly. He was not doing such a job in the British Ministry but thinking again it could have been of much if he did. ''Not really. Actually i am a Psychologist and did consultant job before but i still tend to help people who seem to be in need of it.''

Smiling as the man shook his hand, he snapped out of other thought and remembered why he had come there in a sudden when he kind of demanded it. ''Ah, yes.'' he looked at man's face and cleared his throat. ''I, Mr. Troy, am here to request a couple days of leave''

Psychologist. What was the need to hire a Psychologist to the Magical profession? Lack of man power?This Ministry is really weird.

"Mhmm." Benjamin chuckled, "Very well, continue your consultant job." he said, summoned his file from the rack. Dusting the file hastily, he hummed, "Leave for two days...well.. submit the leave application before you leave, for a record" he granted him what he wanted.

Now time to re-arrange the office.

Well...saying a couple of he actually meant some not two and if he had two days. This meant he was going to be forced to rush things and try to do a thorough job at the same time. Hard but not impossible. He smiled when the man chuckled regardless of why he did chuckle. ''Actually i do continue colsulting but in a different field'' No one thought the little salary ministry gave would be enough for him...

''Thank you'' the blond man pronounced as the man held his file which made him wonder if everything about him was really written in there. Good question. Soo time to leave the man here ''It was good to get to know you Mr. Troy. I hope to see you soon'' Perhaps. With a little nod he turned and walked out the door not even thinking about asking where he could leave application for it would actually be on his advantage if there was no record.

"See you soon, Mr. Chambers." Benjamin responded before got up and changed the inside decors from purple and grey to Black and white. Perfect. His wand twirled in his hand, inbetween his fingers stylishly. Glancing around the room again, he nodded to himself with satisfied smile. With that he walked out of the room, taking a brisk walk towards the Planet room.

His first ever visit to the Planet room. He was quite excited. No?!!

Charlotta walked into the beautiful office after knocking on the door. There seemed to be no-one here. She had stayed extra late on her first day of work, just so she could make a good impression. She entered the room. "I'm sorry but could I have a moment of your time." She asked politely. It's my first day of work and I was told to come here after I'd finished in the time room."

Walking into her for the first time in what seemed like forever, Becca smiled and looked around. Her smile fell slightly as she saw the room was black and white. Alright, I can deal with that, it's cool. I can change it back. She told herself, looking at the colour scheme with a small smile. Moving to her desk, she sat down, but looked up when someone came in "Sure, have a seat" Becca offered, nodding to a seat in front of her desk. "I'm Becca Lee.." she trailed off as she looked at the desk to see the picture of Brian, but saw nothing. "Sorry, just give me a second." she smiled at the woman in front of her.

Looking around the room thoroughly now, she noticed all her pictures were gone. She narrowed her eyes slightly and then searched through her desk drawers, the pictures were either in one of these drawers, or they were gone, and she'd be VERY annoyed if they were gone. Finding a stack of her pictures, she pulled them out of the drawer and placed them on the desk with a scowl. Who had touched her pictures and hidden them?!

Glancing at the pile of pictures once more, she shook her head and then looked back to the woman "Sorry, I've been away on maternity leave, and someone's been touching my possessions and moving them." she explained, smiling at the woman who'd only just come to the department "So, how was your first day?" she asked, holding all her annoyance inside until the right person came along.

Charlotta walked into the room and sat in the seat that was being offered to her. "It was great thank you" She replied smiling but a little anxious. "Oh and congratulations on the baby" she said holding out her hand for a handshake. "I'm Charlotta by the way, It's very nice to meet you." She was always polite to everyone she met. It made a good impression. "I'm sorry to hear everyone's been touching your possessions, I know how you feel. My younger brother was always replacing my objects with ones that exploded. I'd check anything unusual around here if I were you, incase they, you know, explode." She said jokingly.

Becca smiled "Good." she shook the woman's hand with a nod "Thanks, and it's nice to meet you too Charlotta" Becca smiled warmly, looking around the room as Charlotta mentioned her younger brother replacing stuff "Ah, this person obviously doesn't know me because they put my pictures of my husband and I in a drawer which I find very rude, especially if they were using my office." she sighed "They changed the colour of the office too." she shook her head, smiling forcedly "Anyway, enough about my office, you didn't come here to hear about that. You wanted some time, right?" Becca looked at her searchingly but kindly.

"No, it's OK, I haven't got anything to do at the moment and I was just told to come here" She said with a smile. "Would you like any help replacing the photos? I would really like something better to do then just wait around." She thought that the best way to improve in a place like the ministry was be helpful and polite.

Becca smiled "That's fine." she then glanced at the pile of photos "No, it's okay. I want them there for me to refer to when this person comes back to my office." Becca smiled "Thanks though." she nodded again, smiling still. "I'm here whenever you want to talk." she nodded "But if that's all, I'd like to catch up on my department, if you don't mind..?" Becca really wanted to find out what had been going on whilst she was away, but she didn't want Charlotta to think she was rude.

"No it's fine, I'd better return to the Time Room anyway, i'm still getting used to my work." She said turning towards the door. "Godd luck with your baby and your husband" She said with a smile. Charlotta thought that she was too young to have a child and husband. She had only been out of hogwarts for a year anyway. "Well goodbye and have a nice day" She walked out of the bright office and turned towards the Time Room, back into the bright room full of ticking clocks.

"Thanks." Becca smiled, glad that Charlotta understood and was happy to leave so Becca could check up on the department. "Oh, thanks, I don't need luck though, they're both awesome." she grinned, thinking of James and Brian who were upstairs. "Byeee" Becca called after Charlotta, glad to meet someone nice on her first ten minutes back into the department.

Sighing to herself, Becca instantly picked up the division folders and started going through them. Nodding at each one she finished with, Becca got to the last folder and her jaw dropped in shock. This. Was. Not. Good. Who the heck took over this department when I was gone?!

Melina took a deep breath. Not that she wanted anyone to know, but she was nervous. Melina was up for the position of division head and couldn't help but be just a little nervous. Nodding to herself, almost encouraging herself to reach up for the glass door and knock, becca did so and hoped that Mrs. Lee was back. She'd heard the replacement had been a little sketchy and Melina did not like sketchy outside of mystery books. Smiling to herself, she nodded once more. She could do this.

Becca looked up "Come in." she threw the file down on the desk and leant back in her chair as he eyes flashed in anger. Taking a deep breath, she calmed herself down a little and then smiled at Melina "Have a seat." she smiled, knowing that when this temporary department head came to her office, she was going to be VERY annoyed and demand answers. "What can I do for you?" Becca asked.
