Yes, Sirs!

I don't own them. It's all J.K. Rowling's. I'm just borrowing them for the moment.

I was startled when two figures clad in black appeared out of thin air into my shop. With menacing expressions, they approached me with their wands out, backing me against the wall. My heart froze with fear when I realised the identities of these wizards.

'You!' hissed the blond-haired wizard. 'How difficult is it to find a post owl?'

The black-haired wizard brought his wand to my throat. 'I highly doubt you have a good excuse for making these witches wait for months,' he said quietly.

My eyes widened. 'I—'

'No excuses,' the blond growled. 'You will take yourself and your parcel to the nearest post office.' He glared at me with a look that could freeze fire. 'The consequences will be severe should you fail to do so.'

I felt an invisible hand grip my throat, and I struggled to breathe. When I thought I was going to black out, the pressure released, and the two wizards were gone. As I shook my head, wondering if this was a too-realistic daydream, I heard a voice say, 'Do not forget.'

I took the parcel and went straight to the post office. 'I'm sorry it took me so long,' I whispered.
