Anastasia drops Anya off at her parents house before rushing off into her black audi and driving towards her office building, as per usual she gets stuck in traffic. Her blackberry rings, she puts it on speak "Hello Anastasia Renaldi" She says "Anastasia it's Marc" Marc had been Anastasia's PA for the last year. "Hello Marc" She says. "You have an invite to a gala tonight" He says, Anastasia groans. Not another one"Tell them I can't go, I have nothing to wear" She says. Marc knew that wasn't true. Anastasia had a red Oscar Dela Renta dress in her closet somewhere
"Okay, Are you nearly here?" He asks "Almost" She says as the traffic starts to move "Okay, Bye, Wait have you signed the forms?" Marc asks. "They're on my desk" Anastasia replies "Look Marc I have to go" Anastasia says turning her phone off, she pulls into the private carpark and parks in her usual space, she gets out taking off her sunglasses, she holds them and her blackberry in her hand as she walks towards the large office building. A man opens the door for her, she smiles softly and nods her head at him as she walks towards the elevator, hitting her floor number. When she arrives at her floor, Marc stands waiting on her "I need to read and highlight these" He says handing her a file. Anastasia walks towards her office, Marc hot on her heels. Anastasia gave Marc her handbag before walking into her office flicking through the file "So how did the office cope without me for a week?" She asks "We were fine" Marc lies "Marc!" Anastasia says as she spung 180degrees around in her black leather chair, her foot under the desk to keep her steady "Okay, We lost a case" Marc says, Anastasia looks up at him. "Who?" She asks "The Newbie's" He says "Oh that's okay then" She says looking back down at her file

Why Alex had to be here she had no idea but the Manhattan District Attorney looked around as she tried to find the lawyer. She had her next case with her according to her judge and mentor Elizabeth Donnelly. She had a wand in her pocket and she planned to keep it there. it was not safe in Manhattan any more than it was safe in England.
"Anastasia Renaldi?" she asked as she she came down the hallway. Her blond hair was up in a ponytail and she had a stack of papers in her hand. She really didn't feel like waiting until motion hearing to give this girl the news so she thought she'd do it here and now.

Marc walks out when he hears Anastasia's name, he mouths something to Anastasia that she didn't catch. 'Anastasia stands up and walks out of her office and into the hallway "Hi you must be Alexandra" Anastasia says as she holds her hand out for the other woman to shake "Anastasia Renaldi, Nice to meet you" She says. Her PA stands watching them "Marc help Alexandra with her papers" She says glancing over at Marc who puts his hands out for Alex's papers.

"Well thank you" Anastasia says "Marc please leave that on my desk and would you call papa, tell him we have dinner reservations at the that local resturant he likes" She says. Marc nods his head writing everything down. Anastasia turns from Marc to Nadia "I don't mean to seem rude but what case is it that we're doing?" She asks "I've been away for the last week and I only arrived back few moments ago" She says

"Okay I'll look at the case now" Anastasia says to the older woman, She walks into her office and over to her desk, it was a very professional and organzied look desk, there was a photo of her and Anya sat on a frame near a tray that held blank paper. She quickly logs into her laptop before flicking through the first few pages. Marc walks to the door. "Anastasia, the gala people are on line 2" Marc says. Anastasia rolls her eyes causing Marc to smirk and lean against the door "Hello Anastasia Renaldi" She says as she picks up the phone. She moves her head from side to side as the person talks "Actually I'm really sorry but I can't go it's my mother's party tonight. I need to go I have another call coming through, okay nce to hear from you again" She says before hanging "She does my head in" Anastasia says while she reads the file "Marc find out when I can see the client" Anastasia says not looking up from the file. Marc nods and leaves

Alex tried to figure out what was going on. Why were there witches and wizards here, and why on earth had they just apperated.
One of the wizards, a death eater got near Marc and shot a spell at him. Pointing his wand to the man he said. "LEVICORPUS!"
Alex watched in horror at what had happened. She kenw the effects of this spell very wel. She took out her own wand and interveneed. "Rictusempra...Fininte" she said pointing to Marc ending the spell on him. This was definetly exposure and attack on innocent muggles, she knew the ministry would have them all for this.

Anatasia hears Marcs muffles scream. She stands up from her desk and rushes over to her door, she sees Marc on the ground, she quickly rushes over to him. "Marc what happened?" She asks her PA.

"Alexandra" She says "What.Happened?". She asks

Alex looked at Anastasia and one looked at hte younger woamn told her she kenw what was going on without being told. She seriously didn't want to do this but she said. "He got in here, was looking for something to do or osmeone to attack, couldn't find what he was after and came after Marc, he'll be fine but we may not be if they find out" They referred to the ministry of magic. But they were all the way in London. Was there such a thing in the united States? Not as far as Alex knew.
As far as the blond haired a.D.A could remember London was the center of all of this but that may only have been becau she grew up there.

Anastasia looks at Alexandra listening to her speak before helping Marc up onto her chair "Who or What was he after?" Anastsia asks standing behind Marc's desk she walks around and stands infront of it "Who are 'they' anyway?" She asks leaving against the desk, the phone rings, she turns it off looking at Alexandra.

"Why the ministry of magic of couorse, you and I may not be in school anymore but...we still have to abide by the laws set...and I think I just broke mine which I will try and fix but in the meantime, I don't know...he may have been after you or me...or both..." Alex put her face in her hands. "What do oyu want to do?" she asked Anastasia.
She sat down on the floor and hugged her knees. This was turning out to be a very busy day indeed and she had not even went to the D.A's office yet to collect mail or paperwork or whatever.

"I don't know what I want to do at the minute" Anastasia says, she looks at the phone and calls the main office "Lucy" She says tithe receptionist "It's Anastasia, I want no one with in 10 meters of my office" She says to her "Well then find a way and I want no one entering this building with a visitor's card" She says before hanging up. She puts a hand to her head "Can this day get any worse?" She asks glancing at Marc
