"Rosie! Move along," said Percy Weasley as he dragged Rosie into the Ministry of Magic. "How could you petrify Taylor? He's your friend! I just can't believe you would do this."

  "Percy! I didn't do this!" Rosie protested. Percy looked at her dissapovingly. After Madam Corner had told Albus about what evidence had been found, she had gathered all the professors and close friends. They had gone to the Ministry of Magic. Albus did not believe that Rosie had attacked Taylor, but he was not allowed to speak at such meetings.

  "Well, who do we have here?" asked Parsons Barschoff, the new Minister of Magic. "Accused of charges of petrifying a fellow peer from Hogwarts." Barschoff read off of a long parchment scroll which was handed to him by Percy. "Suspected to be the cause of two other petrified victims, one of which is a professor." His eyes focused on Rosie. "Suspected to be the cause of two other petrified victims," he repeated. "Take her behind the bars and confiscate her wand," he commanded.

  Two burly men grabbed Rosie by her arms and carried her into a hallway with Percy supervising.

  "Wait, no!"

  "Anything you'd like to say, Albus?"

  "I know who has been petrifying the students."

  "You do?

  "Yes."

  "Show us."

  "Well, you'll find out at Hogwarts."
