Chapter 39

While we were talking, I suddenly felt anti-apparation and anti-portkey wards go up. What the hell? Didn't Voldemort attack Madam Bones in summer after 5th year? Did me beating him up in front of his minions made him do this? It is certainly possible. If his minions think that he is weaker than before, they might decide to not follow him again. Voldemort certainly needs a show of strength and who's better than a strong witch like Madam Bones, who is the boss of all Aurors? It will also help with his plan to take over the ministry, if Madam Bones were to die, Aurors will be in disarray and it will certainly take time to organize them again by new DMLE head.

"We have a problem. I just felt anti-apparation and anti-portkey wards go up. I am sure that even your floo is about to get closed for maintenance if it's not happened already. It's classic death eater technique. We need to move now." I announced suddenly.

"Are you sure?" She asked and I nodded. She then continued, "Alright then, let's go, we will also take my Auror bodyguards with us. They should be just outside." Madam Bones replied calmly.

We stood and hurriedly made our way outside. Just as we reached outside we saw one of the Auror killing his partner with Avada kedevra (AK).

Madam Bones whipped out her wand from the holster in one quick motion and cast cutting charm on the standing Auror before he even had time to react, his head was separated from his body.

"Well, look on the bright side, we just found out the first mole. It could have been worse, he could have caught you off-guard. He certainly was in a position to do so as your personal bodyguard." I stated.

"He must have become a traitor after becoming my bodyguard because I personally confirmed that he was loyal before I gave him this position." She replied, still very calm.

"Alright then, let's go. We need to assess the situation outside. Since they haven't started attacking, we can catch them off-guard by surprise attack." I declared and the three of us hurriedly went towards the front door.

When we almost reached outside, we looked around, while hiding behind cover to assess the situation. Voldemort himself was present, along with many of Death Eaters, making some speech inside privacy wards(a foolish mistake if you ask me. If it was me I would have hit hard and fast without wasting time. But then again, he must have thought that the situation is under his control since he has closed all avenues of escape and he must be waiting for the traitor to give a signal. Looks like someone is about to have rude awakening). Guess I wasn't off the mark, he really seems to be here to show his strength to his minions.

"Alright, I see Voldemort and 19 death eaters with him. No matter what happens, I won't go down without a fight." Said Madam Bones with conviction.

" Who said anything about you dying? You and Tonks are both going to stay inside the cover" I told them both.

They both protested and Madam Bones said, "Even if you are strong enough to fight dark lord, you won't last since there are 19 death eaters with him. Me and Auror Tonks will try to cover you while you are fighting with Voldemort. It's our best shot."

"No, it's not. Believe me, I will be fine. No offense but having you both with me will just be a distraction. I will be fine on my own." I said.

Before they can protest further, I cut them off and said, "just watch me from cover. If you think that I won't be able to handle them, you can just come out and help me then."

They didn't look happy, especially Tonks, but they conceded.

" Well, if ain't Dark lord V-man himself with his shit eaters. To what do I owe the p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e today." I calmly walked outside and said loudly to get their attention.

" You again, what the hell you doing here. No matter, you won't make it out alive." He said and ordered his minions, "everyone, attack him with me, we are here for Amelia Bones, it will be prudent for us to take care of him quickly before Aurors arrive. It will be very disadvantageous to our plans for me to be seen publicly, especially before we assemble our army."

Talk about shameless. He just wants them to attack together because he knows that if he fails to defeat me again, especially when he was trying to show them his might, it will worse for him to get beaten again than him making excuse and have them all to attack together with him to get rid of me.
