Juliette walked into the courtroom and sighed, her head bowed. Why did people do things like this? Mr Randolf. Son of the infamous James Randolf, no doubt. Following in his father's footsteps. Only, now James was dead adn Max was going to prison. No doubt about it.
She sat at her place, putting her files in front of her, adjusting her robes. This was going to be a long day. One, she was not going to enjoy.

[Sara Templeton]

Sara walked into the courtroom, and stopped in the doorway. She felt a shiver down her spine, and past events, 22 years before, shot past her vision. She was sitting right up the back of the stands, looking down to a very good looking dark haired man, sitting on that exact chair. She let out a sigh as she remembered the horror, watching her once lover being carted off to Azkaban, while she was supposedly on the run.
She recovered herself. Watching Rabastan being taken away would never leave her. Never. But, she didn't expect it to affect her like that. Seeing Juliette, she walked up to the seat beside the Minister.
"Minister," she greeted, sitting beside her in the seat allocated for her.

Juliette looked up as someone said her name. When she recognised Sara, she smiled. "Headmistress," she responded. "What a horrid day," she commented. The room began to fill up with the Wizengamot and spectators, all here to see the trials. Juliette sighed. She was just about to say something else to Sara, when the guards announced the entry of the one on trial.
"Mast. Max Rupricht Randolf. Charged with Death Eater sympathies, murder, torture and treason."

Annie sat in the stands with her grandfather, the only person that had offered to take her today. She watched Max enter the room and a loud sigh left her mouth. This was really happening, he was really here and most likely going to get sent to prision. She let the tears come to her eyes as she watched. This was not fair, he had been caught and she hadn't, he was going to prision and she was going to Hogwarts again. She had to bite down on her lip to stop herself doing something stupid.

[Max Randolf]

Max sighed when he heard his name. He really hoped Annie wasn't here to see him like this. The arms of the prison clothes he was wearing were cut short to show of the Mark, still blazing on his forearm. He looked up and around as they chained him to the chair, his eyes latching onto a whiteblonde girl in the audience. She was here, and he was going to Azkaban. Finally going to find out first hand what his Dad had been talking about. Not that he'd ever wanted to find out. Who would!
He smiled at her, trying to reassure her that everything would be okay, even though he knew they wouldn't be. He'd never get out of there alive. There was no way they'd let him out.
"I love you" he mouthed to her, then looked up at the MInister, ready for the trial.

Annie let a small tear run down her face when she saw his smile. She knew he was trying to reassure her but it didn’t work. She had lost everyone, first her parents, Alex and Sam were dead, Bella was only God knows where - even if she was around Annie doubted Bella was even speak to her - and Max was going to prison. She mouthed, “I love you too” back to him. No matter how much she wished she knew how this was going to turn out and she didn’t like it one bit.
