Never Trust the Irish

Blaise Zabini has perfected the fine art of being invisible. No one knows who she is, and she likes it that way. Blaise watches people, and knows more about the students of Hogwarts than they do themselves. When her interest is caught by a lively Irish lad by the name of Seamus Finnigan, her entire life threatens to turn upside down, spin on it's head, and maybe even dance the Can-Can.

Blaise's boss, Theodore Nott, gives her the Quintaped Assignment. Her Dangerous Creature Control Squad is joined by a small team of Aurors to control the situation in Scotland. Much to her surprise, the head of the Auror team is none other than Seamus Finnigan.

It started out as a good day, Seamus thought. It was all ruined when a rampaging Ginny Weasley burst into his office, mad at him for not including her on an operation he knew nothing about. Then it was simply a confusing day, with Blaise Zabini the bright spot that woke him up better than coffee.

When our teams get to Scotland, the operation hits a few snags when it is discovered that someone is short a tent. Featuring grouchy Ginny Weasley, a quintaped named Larry, and an appearance by everyone's favorite Quidditch jock, Oliver Wood.

In this chapter, our lovely protagonists have a run in with a quintaped a bit less friendly than Larry.
