Salazar just checked on his basilisk, everything seemed good, the basilisk was taking good care of herself he just smiled, patting it's head before leaving the chamber of secret, he remembered that a school governor was coming to visit the founders, he had to make sure to be dressed well and mostly out of the girls bathroom, however when he got out of his chamber, he wasn't alone in the girls bathroom, was it the school governor he hoped not, this would be a strange place to meet such a person.

That day was Anastasia's turn to do a run up check on Hogwarts and its four founders. Gryffindor was away, and after a thorough talk with the two female founders she headed downstairs to Slytherin's office. On the way, she heard a curious sound coming from one of the rooms. Anastasia slipped inside the bathroom just in time to see the sink slide into its rightful place. She folded her arms over her chest and raised an eye brow. Stacy cleared his throat and said, "Fancy finding you here Lord Slytherin. Isn't this the girl's bathroom?"

Salazar just looked a bit surprised, he wasn't used to being called Lord Slytherin, actually it has been some time since that title was used, he looked at her calmly, and then around, he hoped she didn't see the sinks slide, otherwise he could be done for, he just kept looking at her he looked at her for a while, was this the Governor? She wasn't bad at all as he eyed her calmly, he then cleared his throat. "I... I hum, accidentally went to the wrong bathroom I was in a hurry, to get into better outfits for you my lady governor." Salazar said, bowing his head in respect.

Salazar's pause seemed to last a second too long as he eyed Anastasia from her crown to her toes. She felt both uncomfortable and flattered with the attention. Stacy returned the favour by checking him out. This was the first time she was meeting Salazar and had to admit he was quite the looker. A smile played in the corner of her mouth as she listened to his words. Anastasia did not look convinced but she decided to drop the subject. She returned the bow and introduced herself, "It's a pleasure to be finally meeting the founder of Slytherin. I am Anastasia Vulpecula Selwyn. And it seems that you already know, I am one of the school's governors."

Salazar just looked at her, she didn't seem to be convinced, he could see it in her eyes, he was grateful that she dropped the subject and just gave a little sigh of relief, he then listened to her talk, he didn't know why but her voice sounded like.. a melody, he shook his head calmly and concentrated his gaze on her, when she was done, he just took her hand and gave it a little kiss, looking back at her. "Please, you can call me Salazar, or Lord Slytherin, sounds rather perfect to my ears." He said, in a playful manner as he looked at her calmly, it felt a bit weird, talking with her in this place, mostly because it's the girls bathroom, he hoped she wouldn't mention the sink. "I never thought they would send a beautiful governor to meet with us."

Anastasia watched him take her hand and kiss it. She found herself wishing she wasn't wearing any gloves, simply to feel his lips against her skin. "Lord Slytherin will do fine," she said choosing the most formal of the two. Stacy smiled at his words and said, "I could say that flattery will get you anywhere. However, it does not work with me." Anastasia withdrew her hand from his and moved backwards. "Shall we head to your office and talk. After all that is why I am here."

Salazar stood there, listening to her, it was true, no need for being the charmer, she wouldn't fall for it, nor was he sure why he was doing this, was it her beauty taking him off guard, no it was probably something else, the title Lord Slytherin just made him feel noble, royalty like he used to, he nodded calmly as he listened, his office would be a better place for a talk, people seeing them in the bathroom would think stuff, he offered his arm to her. "Of course my lady, I will lead the way."

"Certainly," she replied with a slow smile. Anastasia slipped her hand into the crook of his arm and followed him in silence towards his office. She kept casting brief stolen glances towards Slytherin, evidently liking what she was seeing. Once inside his office she sat down and watched him in silence.

He gave quick glances at her direction, hoping she didn't notice, he liked what he saw that was sure, he then looked in front of them, opening the door to his office, pulling a chair for her to sit on before going to sit on his chair, he looked at her for a few minutes, silently. "Hum would you care for some refreshments? Perhaps butterbeer.. or fire whiskey?"

Anastasia thanked him as he opened the door and pulled out the chair for her. "Quite the gentleman," she commented. Stacy smiled at his offer and gave a curt nod. "Firewhiskey sounds tempting but I do not drink when I am working. Butterbeer will be just fine, thank you."

Salazar smiled, understanding her, it would be unwise if they drank alcohol specially in a school, he clapped his hand as a house elf appeared, Salazar was glancing at the creature quite coldly, still angry that they had to use such creatures. "Bring us a butterbeer bottle and two glasses. Now." Salazar said, coldly, the house elf just disappeared with a puff, as Salazar looked back at Stacy he just gave her a smile, the house elf appearing once more with the bottle and two glasses, it put them on the desk and disappeared. Salazar's pet snake was roaming around, and wrapping itself on Stacy. "Sorry about that, guests always seem to peek his curiosity."

Her lip curled in distaste at the sight of the house elf. She noticed that Salazar himself was not happy with the creature. Stacy watched it disappear, reappear and disappear once again. She was barely aware of the snake until she heard Slytherin's words. Stacy extended her arm towards the snake and it started slithered up to her shoulders, wrapping itself around them with its head rested against her neck. Stacy stroked the snake's head slowly and said, "There is no need to apologise. I love snakes." Anastasia looked up and smiled at Slytherin.

Salazar smiled, it was all good then if she loved snakes. He eventually talked to his snake, giving it an order to leave them alone for a while, so Salazar and Stacy could concentrate more on the conversation at end, the snake eventually went down, a bit saddened by the decision just mumbling an okay to Salazar in parseltongue, Salazar nodded calmly and focused his gaze on Stacy. "So my lady, what brings you all the way to Hogwarts?"

As the snake reluctantly climbed off her, Anastasia looked as disappointed as it did. She straightened herself at Salazar's words and cleared her throat. "I will only take few minutes of your time Lord Slytherin," she said. Stacy leaned slightly forwards, "I have been receiving alarming owls from the parents of Slytherin students. They claim that their children are missing; that you have denied this but that their friends confirmed they have not seen them for weeks." She paused and watched his expression for a reaction.

Salazar listened, a shock expression on his face, he talked to his snake hastily, as he glanced back at Stacy and then at his snake leaving the office, what was going on he had no idea, but he was sure of the culprits, he looked at her calmly. "Could I have the family names of the students missing my lady? I shall find the culprit but I think I have a clear idea on who might cause such havoc... I'm afraid I cannot.. allow him to be expelled."
