DISCALIMER: It's not mine, all hers. Certainly not making bank on it either.
His chance was now. It was a Saturday. A Hogsmeade trip was set for today, and who should be chaperoning but the sweet little soon-to-be-Snape family. The couple ambled down the thoroughfare hand in hand, the child wandering just a step in front of them, taking in all the store fronts. He stayed in the shadows, watching their every move. The moment was coming, he had but to wait for it.
They entered Flourish and Blotts book shoppe and began walking the aisles, searching for something they didn't already own, which was, evidently, a challenge for the couple.
"Lorelei, stay close." He heard her mother say, as the child began running down to the next aisle. Snape was in the corner, looking at the newest potions journals, his nose firmly planted in a volume, as Hermione looked at books on raising magical children. Their attention was drawn, and the child was out of their sight. It was almost too easy. But in his business, simple was good, regardless of how it was presented.
He trailed the girl as she ran around the end cap of an aisle, before grabbing her abruptly, putting a hand over her mouth, and rapidly leaving the store. He made it to an alley down the block, and quickly disapparated. He arrived at the agreed upon location and sent word to his benefactor, before settling the child.
Heinrich had never been the sort to like children. They were loud, needy, and sticky. He didn't think it would make any difference that this was his own child, he was certain to detest every moment until his boss told him what to do next. But he was wrong. He sat at a bare table in the make shift kitchen of the hovel they were to meet at, drinking his tea with just a bit more than a swallow of Ogden's Finest in it, as the child merely wandered the room. She looked at things here and there, touching everything, climbing onto the old dusty stained couch in the middle of the room, pulling a book at random off the lowest shelf of a bookcase that was falling apart.
If he didn't know better, he would think the child was actually reading to herself. She flipped through the pages slowly, babbling out loud, following a line with her finger. Her mother probably read with her constantly. He sat, brooding, awaiting the arrival of his boss, when he heard someone on the front steps of the house. He rose from his seat, wand in hand, and stood flattened to the wall beside the door, waiting for someone to try to enter.
The door cracked opened slowly. He raised his wand. A tall figure stepped in. He pointed, then lowered it immediately upon recognizing Kinglsey.
"Took you long enough to get here." He grumbled, stalking back over to his tea.
"And it took you long enough to get her." The Minister retorted menacingly. "Alright. You need to do the disguise and take a memory to send to them. It should only be a matter of time before they contact me. I think maybe a day or two. Will you be able to keep you shit together that long?" He growled at the man.
"Yes. What do you want for the memory?" Heinrich groused.
"Make it something good. I want them terrified enough to move quickly." He stated threateningly.
"You got it boss. And when am I to grab the others? They should be much easier." He asked.
"After." Shacklebot answered simply.
"Fine. I better get paid for all this. I don't do charity work. For the cause or not, a man had needs. I expect my galleons."
"You dare make demands of me? You know what I could do to you, how easy it would be to make you disappear and simply... cease to be, and yet you try to get money from me? Before your task is even completed? You must be more dimwitted than I thought." He thundered at the man, who cowered back into his rickety kitchen chair.
"Of course, Kingsley. Of course, you're right. I was getting ahead of myself. I'll get on the memory now-"
BANG!
He was cut off as a blast came from the side of the house. The two wizards looked to the wall, then each other, shock and vexation clearly written on their features. They scrambled in different directions, each trying to accomplish the what was necessary to insure their escape, when a secondary blast came from the front door, as it was blown from its hinges and a figure stalked through the wreckage, crouched and ready to fight.
