Only A Look

Chapter Four

The Trip

Before heading to the Port Key Station she went to get her orders from the Ministry. She still had no idea where she was going to live. The Ministry wanted to train Sofia as a charm breaker. Why? She had no idea. Supposedly, she was going to be trained by one of Gringott's best Breakers. She was ecstatic, she had always wanted to be a charm breaker since her first Charms lesson at the Salem Witches Institute. She was just worried about where she was going to live, and who this guy who was going to her was. Speaking of strange men! Who was that guy she saw earlier? Well, she thought, its not like she'd ever see him again. Besides she had bigger things to worry about.

"Mr. Johnston?" she asked as she walked into her supervisor's office.

"Yes? Ah! Miss Anderson!" he responded.

"I am on my way to the station, and came to get my new orders."

"Oh yes, here you are!" as he took a file from the desk and handed it to her. "Inside are your new address, and how to find the magic community in town, and who your trainer will be."

"Great, sir, thank you. Thank you very much! I can't thank you enough for this opportunity!' Sofia said to her boss. Mr. Johnston was an old friend of her father's, and she respected him a great deal.

"You were the best one for the job. You will do well. Make us proud and we will see you back soon," Mr. Johnston said as he shook Sofia's hand. Sofia had to fight really hard no to give into her urges to hug him.

"Thanks again sir," and she left, she made her way to the Port Key station. After waiting in line for over a half hour, she began cursing her fear of apparating. Her father once told her of the time he got splinched, when he was learning to Apparate. She had refused to learn anything that caused her father any pain whatsoever. She couldn't even imagine the pain, or the embarrassment. As she finished this thought she got to the teller and said, "Sofia Anderson to Malaga, Spain please."
