Claudia pulled back and smiled wickedly. "Isabella..." she said, a hateful sparkle in her eyes. "Yes, she would be there, wouldn't she? Along with her traitor husband... Such fools they are. Traitors, just like you. And if Vincent Corrigan is there, then his silly, simpering girlfriend Emily is likely there, too. Another filthy traitor!" She didn't know the others, and they didn't interest her. But the thought of getting revenge against her dear cousin, the favored one with the respectable family, began to gnaw at her hungrily. Abruptly she stood up. "Where are the Order Headquarters?" she demanded, pointing her wand at his throat with a vicious jab.

Tyler looked down at her wand and gulped. This was it. If he gave her this information, there'd be no going back and no doubt he'd be banned from the Order and likely put in Azkaban if they ever found out. "I don't know." He replied, simply. "I've never been there and I think its unplottable." He lied, keeping as straight a face as possible. He was hoping she wouldn't realize he was lying.

Claudia lowered her wand and smiled sweetly. "Oh, if that's it then, I guess I'll just let you go," she said, her voice dripping with honey. "No hard feelings, then?" She made a move as if to untie him, but instead, tugged on the ropes, tightening them around his skin to cut off circulation. Still holding the ropes tighter, she pulled back and held her face just inches from his own. "Honestly, did you think I was going to believe that load of crap? You've been there, and I know you know where it is!" She released the ropes and put her hands on his face again. With one sharp pointed nail, she scratched his cheek, leaving a thin trail of blood on his face. "But you know, as much fun as this has been, I think it would be more fun to have you take me there. In fact, I think I've devised just the perfect use for you." She stepped back and pointed her wand at him again. "Imperio!"

In a quick second Tyler realized what was about to happen. He knew there was nothing for him to do but wait for the spell's impact and try as hard as he could to fight the curse off.
Once the spell had hit him, he immediately felt different. Very different. He felt almost like he was paralyzed. If he wished to move any part of his body, his brain would not be able to send the correct message. He continued to sit with his arms and feet tied, a trickle of blood running down his cheek and staining his shirt from where Claudia had dug her fingernail into his face. His expression was blank as he gazed into the wall, aware of what was happening, but not able to change anything about it.

Claudia smiled. "Now that's better," she said. "I do love having a man wrapped around my little finger." She knelt down in front of him. "Now, I'm going to untie you, and then we're going to discuss things in a little more civilized manner." She reached around him and untied the ropes slowly. When she was done, she straightened up and looked at him almost pleasantly. "You are going to be my spy in the Order. I want you to go to the meetings, to keep an eye on everyone there and everything that happens, and then I want you to come back and tell me everything you know... from the location of the headquarters, to the names and occupations of everyone there, to any plans they may have against the Dark Lord. Is that understood?"

Tyler had a sudden and almost powerful thought, I have to say no. I can't let her control me like this... But in moments it died and he just nodded, showing that he understood. "Yes, Claudia." He replied, simply. He looked around again, blankly.

"That's a good boy," Claudia said, patting his head like a dog. "You will check in with me regularly, and do whatever I ask whenever I ask you to do it. OK?"

Tyler continued nodding, "Of course." He replied, shortly again. "Shall I begin my mission now?" He asked.

"Yes," said Claudia. "But I'm going to walk you out. We came in together, so we need to leave together." She took his hand and pulled him to his feet, then gently rubbed at the gash on his cheek with her finger, cleaning up the trail of blood. She tapped the blood stain on his shirt with her wand and vanished away the stain. "Much better," she said. "All right, let's go then."

Tyler felt a bit dizzy and wobbled around a little bit before setting his eyes on the door. He stood up straight and proper, almost like a robot, and walked to the door with Claudia, opening it and letting her walk out first, feeling like it was his duty to help her at this point.

Claudia led the way out of the room and locked the door behind her. Then she walked down the narrow staircase that led back to the main bar area with him behind her.
((I figure we can now move to the "Resting" thread.))
