INTERVIEWS[OPEN AURORS]

[Deleted]

Things were a mess as he saw now, after the order meeting he had just had and being filled in one the current threats going on in the world right now, including a possible threat that Ian Owens could escape from Azkaban. His mind felt like it was ready to explode however; he knew he needed to keep his cool and figure out a plan to defend the Ministry and the Minister from these new threats. One thing had been made clear to him after the meeting that night when he returned to his office to begin working on new security plans. His Advanced Guard members they were highly trained however a few were seniors, and not in just seniority but in age and he could tell some were not as fast as they were. I can’t afford someone being off by just inches, they need to be taking that killing curse if need be thought Argus he was standing in the middle of his office looking over a table with files of all his people and many Aurors in the regular Auror office. He had been given the green light already to bring one at least one new person, now with everything that was going on and the threats, he was bypassing that.

He would move a few off from the field protection and travel details, more on ground security for the Ministry or other jobs he knew they could be good at. However providing front line protection to the Minister would not work for them anymore, meaning he needed to bring in their replacements. Specifically for sure he needed a new body guard for the Senior Undersecretary for the Minister, Myron Winterfield or better known by everyone as Dwight. He had got the request a few days ago for the switch to a new head of his detail, again he requested Argus however that would not happen. He should know the Head is always assigned to the Minister, and him only thought Argus. He gave a little sigh and looked over at the clock and saw it getting close to near ten in the morning. Gathering up all the files off the current Aurors he was looking at to adding to his team. Earlier in the morning he had put a notice in the Auror office announcing the Advanced Guard would perform interviews today if qualified.

He needed Aurors who were the best at defensive magic and protection spells, ones that were loyal, and would understand that they were expected to take a killing curse to protect the Minister. He made his way to the conference room that was a few feet from his office. The entire floor of level one had more than usual members of the advanced guard standing in black robes either guarding office doors or walking around hallways. The unit was still a small unit, very small compared to the size of the Auror Office. This was the time for it to expand, what Argus had wanted to do. Not for more power, he only wanted to do his job better and he needed more people for that. He took a seat in the conference room with his outgoing Deputy, who would sit in on the interviews he was also looking to fill that position. ”Well Jack I’m not sure who will show up, if any at all. The memo went to all the Aurors to come if interested and qualified, I’m sure however will get a few unqualified to come in they always do to try and impress us” spoke Argus he handed some of the files to the older greyed haired man and waited for any Aurors to show up for this potential promotion.

Tom had been very busy since the Order meeting the other night. He had been given a few tasks to complete and now he was going to do one more thing that he knew would be a help to the both the Order and the Advanced Guard. He was here in the Ministry and currently Tom could be found heading towards a conference room where the interviews were to take place for those wishing to be part of the AG. Normally he wasn't one to go after such a position but Tom had been having a feeling that it was necessary that he needed to do this. He had no idea as to why the AG was looking for new recruits but he was ready and willing to help, even though they weren't looking at the hit wizards.

Normally he wasn't even down here on this level where the auror department was located, and he wasn't at all surprised when he looked around to see many empty desks and offices that had once been filled with some of the best senior and more experienced aurors. It was a sad site to see, but things happened and well there was something very nasty and terrible going on right now, people were being murdered and all of them just so happened to be members of the ministry. The aurors that he did see were young and now had to take on this fight, and most of the aurors he knew were all young, but willing to do whatever it took to protect the people both magical and non-magical.

Upon reaching the conference room where he needed to be. Taking a deep breath Tom pushed open the door and stepped inside letting the door shut silently behind him. He took a look around and noticing any and all things that were in the room, and most importantly the Head of the Advanced Guard Argus Diamond who just so happened to part of the Order of the Phoenix like he was. And then the deputy of the AG whom he didn't know very well. “I know that you asked for aurors for this, but I figured you might want the help of an experienced hit wizard.” Tom addressed the two men before him.

Rarely did he hold meetings such as the one he was doing now, when they were hiring the Advanced Guard had the history of picking people out after watching them for weeks, something he kept doing. However when times were like this he had to take certain other steps but that did not mean they would be any less trained. If this interview went successful for them, they would undergo training, in the most powerful protection and defensive magic. He needed someone who could deal with the recently cold attitude Dwight and someone would replace his second in command. He looked up as someone walked in the door, he recognized him from the Order meeting his name was Thomas Sharpe and he was not an Auror. He was as he said he was a Hit Wizard, a rather experienced one as well. Nodding he motioned for the man to sit at a chair across from them, as he held his other hand up to cut off his deputy. His deputy was clearly about to object, usually they only looked at Aurors. ”Jack that Auror only thing ended when my I took this position” spoke Argus very calmly in fact, he was perfect of keeping his cool at times.

He waved his wand and a file appeared in front of him, a little more filled then some of the Auror ones, he expected such. The man in question Mister Sharpe had been a Hit Wizard since the age of 19, making him one for twelve years. He opened the file and started going through it and slid stuff over to the older Auror next to him, who focused at once on the man’s file clearly he would listen to what Argus said and not object again because of the man’s position. He was experienced fighting dark wizards after all that was part of the man’s job, and he found good reports from the man’s supervisors as well. Can he survive this job however thought Argus he slid the rest of the file over to Jack, the deputy. ”So Mr. Thomas James Sharpe, you’ve been a Hit Wizard for twelve years now it seems and I can say your file has good reports on you, and your experience is well documented”spoke Argus still in his calm tone. His deputy interjected after him about the man’s training not being like the ones Auror received which almost got a scoff from Argus.

”Excuse Jack, he is the traditional old Advanced Guard I do ensure you however you will go through more training as well to focus on the positon more and situation responses, and response times. I am letting go guards, and hiring new ones I need the best of the best. Multiple threats on different levels and angles threaten the Ministry and the level one staff along with the Minister” spoke Argus said after giving a small glance towards his deputy and back to Thomas. ”As a member of the Advanced Guard you promise to protect whoever your assigned to protect with your life, no matter what. In this job you have no personal or political feelings to anyone. I do not accept failure and someone breaching our security is complete and utter failure, loss of a VIP is unspeakable and will result in utter misery. Willing to go forward” said Argus, this time an edge to his voice he needed to make sure this job sounded horrible to any prospect, he wanted them to know what they were getting into. Long hours, high expectations, zero tolerance for failure, but it came with good pay and some great influence and looked good on one’s record.

”So Mr. Thomas James Sharpe, you’ve been a Hit Wizard for twelve years now it seems and I can say your file has good reports on you, and your experience is well documented” Tom watched as his file appeared in front of Argus and Jack. Tom didn’t really like the attitude of the old Advanced Guard but he dismissed it. He nodded in consent to what Argus said to him about him being a hit wizard for twelve years and about his career being well documented. As he listened to Argus speak about letting guards go because he wanted the best of the best so that the ministry officials could be well protected. Tom found this all quite interesting but in light of recent events he knew that it was necessary.

”As a member of the Advanced Guard you promise to protect whoever your assigned to protect with your life, no matter what. In this job you have no personal or political feelings to anyone. I do not accept failure and someone breaching our security is complete and utter failure, loss of a VIP is unspeakable and will result in utter misery. Willing to go forward” He was more than willing to go forward with this, since with the tone of voice that Argus used, with that edge to it to make the job sound horrible, and extremely difficult. But to Tom it sounded like a challenge to that was being issued to him. Smirking, he said “Well now that sounds interesting.” He said as he thought about the offer that was issued to him by Argus. This was right up his alley, go head first into the unknown, and do what is necessary to complete whatever was required of him, he had been doing it his whole life. “I accept any and all requirements, oaths etc. And I am willing to go through more training if necessary.” Tom said as he accepted the offer he was ready and willing to delve into the unknown and become a member of the Advanced Guard.
