A figure stood in front of the large gate of Dionysus Vineyard, gazing at the large property with a mixture of amusement and slight annoyance. He wore a light blue polo with a black tie around his neck. and a pair of matching pants. He held a large cane in his wrinkled hand. He stood there for several more seconds before tapping the bars with his cane, they swung open obediently, after dusting off the bottom of his shoes he strode in. humming something under his breath. Demetrius always wanted to appear rich. He though walking down the path toward the large house.

He was wheezing slightly as he reached the front door, taking full advantage of his cane. He tapped the door lightly, muttering his name as he did this. "Cornelius Ian Barlow, close friend of Demetrius Eros, both Professors at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry." He explained, using the tone of one who has done this numerous times before.

Several locks clicked and the door like the gate swung open. He ambled inside, taking in the ornateness of the house, viewing the furnishings of the entrance way. He ventured into various rooms, searching for his friend.

In one of the rooms filled with instruments he managed to know one over, he leaped a few feet as it clattered to the ground. Damn it. I'm not going to hear the end of this. He thought attempting to fix the instrument back on its stand.
