3rd Person's POV
The next morning, Flich put another noticed. It's says:

PROMCLAMATION
EDUCATIONAL DECREE NO. 82
ALL STUDENTSWILL SUBMIT TOQUESTIONINGABOUTSUSPECTEDILLICITActivities

"This isn't what I expected." Belle mumbled.
"This has gotten too far." Erika said.

"Erika! Belle!" Nigel called them.

"What is it?" Erika asked.
"The D.A. has a meeting." Nigel replied to them.

Belle and Erika knew, so they followed Nigel to the ROR.

~Room Of Requirement~
"Did all of you noticed the new Proclaimination?" Fred asked us.
"Yeah, we did." Belle answered.

Erika turned to Harry and they made eye contact.
"Harry, what we are going to do? If Umbridge finds out what we're doing, we'll be in BIG trouble." she said.

Harry sighed at that.
"Every students is about to be questioned soon." Nigel said.

"I think I got an idea." Belle blurt it out.

Erika turned to her sister. And everyone listened.

"Why not I go first into questioning." Belle said.
"NO!" They exclaimed.

"Belle, are you crazy?!" Erika said.
"It's like I'm going to tell her the truth. I'll just pretend like nothing's going on. She probably will serve us drinks or something like that." Belle said.
"But she might do something do that drink. I should go first, Belle. I'm the oldest." Erika reasoned.
"By 2 minutes." Belle added.

Erika sighed out of frustration. "Aish, Jinja?!"

~Umbridge's Office~
Belle decides to go first. Umbridge was sitting in front of her with a FAKE smile.
"Want some tea, Miss Lee?" she asked.
"Ani dwaess-eo." Belle replied, in Korean.

"Pardon me?" Umbrigde asked again.
"No thanks. I'm not thirsty." Belle replied.

"How about some water?" Umbridge asked.
"No thanks." Belle replied again.

Umbridge sat back, leaning against her chair.

She might be useful for now. She looks so innocent and elegant and she might tell me the truth straight out. Umbridge thought.

"Now, Belle...be a good a girl and tell me...." Umbridge trailed off.

Belle looked at Umbridge with her innocent eyes.

"Tell what you have been doing during the activities." Umbridge said.
"I've been in my Common Room as always. Every day after class, I go there, doing homework." Belle replied.

Umbridge doesn't believe her at all.
"Are you sure you're not thirsty, dear?" Umbridge asked her.
"Well, please share some tea, will you?" Belle said.

Umbridge gave Belle her sweet smile. A sweet smile? Ha! Belle will never fall for it.
Umbridge handed her tea.

Belle took and drank it.

Outside of the room, Erika was pacing around.
For an older sister, she's worried about Belle.

Harry came up to her and patted her on the shoulder
"Erika, calm down. Belle will be alright. She's smart." Harry said.

Erika sighed and nodded. She then turned to Harry.
"I'm just worried." Erika said.

"Don't worry, Erika. Belle will be fine. She'll come out and tell us what will happen." Harry said.

Now, back to Belle.
After noticing a pink swirl in the tea. Belle knew what Umbridge put.

Belle pretended to drink and set it down.
"Ah! That was refreshing." Belle said.

"Now, tell me what you have been doing during the events." Umbridge said.
"I told you, m'am. I've been doing my homework everyday after class." Belle said.

Umbridge wasn't convinced.
"Have some more tea." she said.

Belle had this plan, so she did....

"Ow!!! My bladder is about to explode! I can't hold it anymore!" Belle winced as she wrapped herself around her stomach.

Umbridge was shocked.

"Ow!!!! My stomach hurts. Ow~ Professor, may I be excused?" Belle asked.
"Certainly, you're dismissed." Umbridge replied.
"Thank you."

Belle pretended to walk funny, as she walked out. Erika saw her and she panicked.
Belle was down the stairs and met them as another student went to Umbridge's office.

"Belle, what happened to you? Did she do something to you?" Erika rambled.
She suddenly smiled and giggled.

"What are you smiling about, Belle?" Lukas asked.
"I...pretended to have a stomach ache and ran out." Belle replied.

"Aish, you nearly freaked me out." Erika said out of relief.
Belle just giggled.

"Anyway, back to me. She put Veritaserum in the tea. Don't drink it, even though she tells you to." Belle added.
"Got it."

~Few Moments~
It was Erika's turn. She looked at the tea and she saw a pink swirl in the tea.

Belle was right. she thought.

Erika pretended to drink it and set it down.
"Now, tell me...Erika. Where were you in the past events?" Umbridge asked.
"No where. There's nothing to do here, since you came along." Erika replied.

Umbridge didn't like her  attitude at all.

"I don't like your attitude, Miss Lee. Now, I'll ask you again." Umbridge said.
"I'm not repeating myself, Professor." Erika said.

She stood up and sends her a glare.
"I told you the truth and I must go." Erika did a 90 degree bow.

"Have a nice day, Professor."

Erika left her office as Umbridge grabbed her pen and broke it in half.

I WILL HAVE ORDER!!!! Umbridge thought.

Erika's POV
So, we're back in the common room and we're just sitting there...worried.
Harry sighed and stood up.

"We're doing lessons tomorrow. See you then." Harry left the common and went to his dorm.
I was about to follow him, but Ron stopped me.

"Give him time alone." he said.
I looked at the stairs that Harry took then I let out a sigh.

"Okay."
