Dolores heard a knock at her door. Putting on a foul simpering smile, she strutted down her shocking pink hallway lined with ceramic plates that had kittens on them. Opening her salmon-pink door, she beamed horribly at the five Aurors on her pale pink doorstep.

"Why, how lovely of you to visit me!" she cried, giving a false laugh. "Do come in and take off your coats!"

She led them into the bright pink sitting room with its rose-pink sofas and armchairs and even more ceramic kitten plates on the walls.

"Madam Umbridge, you are being arrested for your crimes against Muggle-borns" the tallest Auror said.

Dolores gave a sickening giggle. "Arrested? Crimes against Muggle-borns – I can't imagine what you could possibly mean!" But her toad-like face went slightly pink. She smoothed her magenta dressing-gown and managed to stay composed.

"I think, Madam Umbridge, you know perfectly well what we mean" the blonde female Auror replied coolly.

"No, I don't!" Dolores said, pretending to look politely confused.

"Don't waste our time pretending to be innocent" growled a bald, bearded Auror near the door.

"Take her away" the female Auror commanded.

Two solidly-built dark-skinned Aurors moved forwards to take Dolores in their iron grip.

"Excuse me!" Dolores cried as they seized her. "I am a Ministry employee…I am Senior Undersecretary to the Minister…you have no right! I'll tell the Minister!"

"The Minister gave us permission to do this" the female Auror said.

"Liar – that is a lie – the Minister is my friend and colleague! He would never let me be manhandled out of my own house!"

"Shut her up" the female Auror said in a bored voice, rubbing at a smudged bit of eye-shadow with one of Dolores's doilies.

"Shut it, Toady" the bearded Auror growled. Dolores gave an outraged scream and the bearded Auror looked rather pleased with himself.

"Nice one" the tallest Auror said in appreciation.

"I will NOT stand for this! I am INNOCENT! I don't know WHAT you're doing! Let me GO!"

"The thousands of Muggle-borns you persecuted were innocent, not you – innocent of nothing more than being witches and wizards of Muggle parentage!" the female Auror said.

"Give her a nice hard kick" the tall Auror growled. One of the dark-skinned Aurors kicked her.

"OUCH! How dare you attack me! I'll report you for this! Forcing entry into a Ministry employee's house – attacking Ministry employee – arresting under false charges – Without authorisation, I'll bet…" Dolores began reciting a long letter of complaint to the Ministry, ready to bring them to court if needed.

"Let's go, the Minister's waiting" the female Auror said.

"YOU WILL PAY FOR THIS, SHACKLEBOLT!" Umbridge shrieked as she was hauled from the courtroom by four Aurors. "I WILL PERSONALLY MAKE SURE YOU ARE THROWN OUT OF THE MINISTRY, DEPRIVED OF YOUR WAND AND FORCED TO LIVE AS A MUGGLE!"

Kingsley arched one eyebrow. "I'd like to see you try" he replied smoothly.
