The Ministry Of Magic-A Back Room

The couple of Death Eaters who went to the Cruise household and kidnapped Robin dropped her off a few minutes later after her kidnapping and dropped her off in a dark cell like place with various other Muggle-borns who were looking rather... thin.

And after that, some more Death Eaters came in, and dropped Nick off in the same room, and used the reverse charm against Stupefy.

Robin stumbled a bit, pushing through the crowd of thin, mistreated muggle-borns, until she found a spot against a wall. She couldn't see a thing, and it stenched of sweat, urine, and... blood. It was so dark, and eerily silent. People were mumbling under their breaths. She knew nobody. Nobody- from what she heard or what little she saw was familiar, and besides that, she was terrified. They have taken her wand, so she had no way of getting out of here. They stripped her of whatever jewelry she had on- she even had to give up her necklace she's had since she was born. She leaned against the wall, breathing heavily, and tried not to cry. Was everyone alright? She hoped so...

"I wouldn't sit down, if I were you. A few people in here have been waiting for quite a while, others have been transported to many different areas, some come back from waiting in Azkaban... You don't know what they did on the floors." said an old shrivelled woman.

Robin, who was halfway down to the floor, stood back up gingerly and held her arms across her chest anxiously.

Nicolas looked around, his feet feeling like they were glued to the floor. Maybe it was the aftermath of Stupefy. Maybe it was that he didn't know anybody and didn't want to make the move to meet someone. Maybe he was just terrified that he wouldn't see his sister, or his girlfriend, or his best friend for a good while. He didn't even have his wand. Slowly, he started to move through the crowd, looking around desperately for somebody he knew. He found his way through the crowd, and his eyes fell on Robin. Wasn't she one of Rachel's friends? he asked himself as he walked over to her.

"Hey... you're Robin, aren't you?" he asked. "One of Rachel's friends?"

Robin's heart skipped a beat. She turned around, then felt a tiny bit disappointed. At the same time, she felt elated, though. Sure, it was Rachel's boyfriend, but at the same time- she knew him. "Nicolas, right? Yeah, I'm one of her friends."

"Yeah. Any idea where we are?" he asked, looking around. "And when we'll be getting out?" He knew that she didn't have the answers, but he just felt better asking them. It was like he had to ask somebody but himself.

"Apparently, tons of people have gone through here. Some have stayed for a while... I don't know."

Nick let out a heavy sigh. "We might be in here for a while, then..."

Robin looked nervous. "I hope they feed us, though-... Did they take your wand too?"

"I don't know. I was outside, playing with the neighborhood kids, and then they came and took me." He did look like he had been playing outside--just a t-shirt with different shades of blue stripes, and shorts. "I didn't have my wand with me. And, my sister ran. I hope they didn't get her, too." His voice cracked at the end.

Robin held her wrist. "They arrived, grabbed me, and left. Didn't even bother with the others- I just hope everyone's okay, too. I guess we're in a similar mess."

Nick nodded. "Yeah. We'll go through this together, I guess..."

"And, we'll survive, and once the mess is over, we'll go back to our families, and they'll be okay too."

"I hope." Nick leaned against the wall, crossing his arms, scowling at the floor. The disgusting floor.

"How are we supposed to sleep?"

"Lean against the wall?" he suggested.

"Yeah, that'll work..." Robin said sarcastically.

"Well, I'm sorry, but I have no idea what we're going to do. It was a suggestion."

Robin turned to him. "We'll have to stick together here, okay?"

Nick nodded. "No matter what."

"I hope we're not split up..."

"We won't be," he said fiercely, as if that decided the matter.

"Okay." she said with a sharp nod. "Either way, it's rather frightening, right? We don't know what they're going to do."

"No, we don't... they'll probably interrogate us."

"I hope that's all..."

In came Laura, Lin had managed to get away and was staying somewhere.

Laura grunted, not caring who answered her, "What the F*** is going on!?"
