The sky was very clear and quiet in the small grasslands. Rolling hills were illuminated by the pale moonlight. Every single star shone brightly. There was a loud crack in the air, and a man rolled on to the ground. Panting heavily the man got back up and started running. The man wore a dark black traveling cloak, a dark red sweater and some comfortable jeans and boots. He would look like any other person in the world... except that he had a wand in his hand, and a giant black mist was now chasing after him, whispering harshly about all of the man's fears. "come on, Ray... think..." He muttered something under his breath, and flicked the wand behind his back. A dark purple jet of light came racing towards the mist, but was soon consumed on the light. "agh... how about..." He turned and started to run backwards, and he swept his wand on to the ground, and a giant wall of flames erupted from the grass. Raymond Grace smiled in triumph as the mist stopped in its tracks. Soon it was engulfed in a ring of fire.
Raymond gave a small laugh, doing a little hop as he stepped over the flame without being hurt. "Not so tough are ya? Bloody sorcerers are getting more and more clever by the year..." He said, now flicking his wand as if it was a sword, and mist screeching in pain. Raymond did it again and again until it was as big as a bag of cotton candy. Then he tried the purple jet of light once more. One final screech and an explosion made Raymond fall back, but as the smoke cleared and the fire was gone, the only thing with Raymond now was a small teddy bear staring up at the sky.
"Whoever sold you this had clear instructions to give it to you and your family, mister White." Raymond Grace said, now in a cozy little room. Pictures of a loving family were up on the walls, moving and laughing and waving. Mrs. White had just finished crying. "I know your political campaign is all about trust but... You might want to check what you buy and give to your child from now on. That curse was meant to break not only your minds, but your whole family's..." He said very softly and not in a harsh way, but a caring one. "Thank you so much, Mister Grace! Whatever you want, its yours!" Mister white said with a smile, and handshake.
"Its no trouble, really." He said with a smile. "I'm just happy i could help... And I wish the best of luck to you on your journey to become Minister, Sir." Raymond sat up getting hugged by the wife, and yet another handshake from Mr. White. He walked out of the house, and with a turn, he disappeared in to thin air.
Raymond reappeared in front of a small cottage in a very small town. The mountain tops were high in the background, with snow on their tops. Raymond opened the door to the cottage to reveal a dark room. Another flick of his wand and a fireplace came to life, illuminating the room. It was covered in artifacts with ancient symbols, small toys, or pieces of jewelry, some almost completely destroyed. A sneakoscope was on a desk as well as multiple pieces of paper with notes and accounts of his previous cases. Raymond Grace was the chief of the Dark Arts Destroyers, or the D.A.D. for short. He took off his coat, keeping his wand in his pocket still as he places the stuffed bear on a shelf, staring at it. "Gave me quite a fight tonight..." He said quietly, walking over to the table and turning on the radio, and humming along to the song.
He checked his watch. He knew that the Ministry would be here any minute to introduce his new partner in crime. To be honest he was very excited, eager to work with someone in this very serious job... Raymond has been doing this for quite some time, and it was only his courage and sense of humor that really kept him going. That and the most important thing that he learned from working with Harry Potter:
Love. He sat down in an arm chair, picking up the Daily Prophet and glancing at the headlines, waiting for the knock on the door.
