Ministry of Magic
It had been a quite time in the Ministry of Magic for the last several years considering the 2nd war had ended with a victory for the light. Some of the top Aurors were meeting with their boss the honorable Minister Arthur Weasley who had been appointed soon after the 2nd war ended. In the office were Seamus Finnegan, Dean Thomas, Luna Lovegood, Hermione Granger Weasley, and her husband 2nd in command of the Auror squad Ronald Weasley. The commander of the squad Harry Potter had not been able to make this current meeting because his wife had taken ill and someone needed to stay with the children.
"Welcome one and all and I hope you are having a great and blessed day, now on to business. We have learned a new group has started to rise up in some of Voldemort's old survivors and some of the newer dark wizards and witches. Apparently, they are calling themselves the Dark Alliance or the DA. Anyway with some interrogation it has been determined that the leader of this group is Draco Malfoy."
"That's no big surprise that this new Dark Alliance would be lead by such a maniacal mad man such as Draco. Come on he hasn't been right since his father was killed by Harry during the final battle." Ron said.
"True but I believe we should be on guard, just in case Draco and his DA try something." Hermione added.
"Agreed as of right now the Ministry is on medium alert until we get more information on this new movement."

Ministry of Magic Auror Headquarters Room 7A
"Ron did you check on Harry and Ginny?"
"Yeah I did and they are fine it just seems like Ginny got a bit of Michael's cold from last week."
"Yeah that's a relief, in that case did you check on Jake and Ami?"
"There fine at mums they are napping currently and she will have them owl us when they wake up."
"Ron have I told you lately that I love you?"
"Not in a few hours but I understand that you have been busy Hermione, but I love ….."
At approximately 12:35:30 PM a massive explosion ripped through the Ministry of Magic building destroying the office of the Minister the Auror division and several parts of the Wizarding court system.
Commander Harry Potter arrived about 15 minutes after the disaster struck and was sickened by what he had seen. True he had seen death before, but this was different, there were body parts all strewn in all different places. He traveled as far as he could go into the destroyed building before he found the first person he recognized it was Dean Thomas. His body had been damaged severely. His right arm and left leg were been blown off and it didn't seem like he would be able to survive. As he traveled further down, he found Minister Weasley impaled on a iron fence post and was already dead.
He prayed that Hermione and Ron would only be hurt but not dead, but he knew this was a slim chance. He finally reached the room that held the headquarters of the Aurors. As he searched through the rubble, he found Hermione barley breathing and bleeding profusely from the head and the chest.
"Mione Merlin what happened?"
H…H…Harry please take care of Jake and Ami for me. Promise me."
"Mione you're going to be okay please hold on."
"Please pro…promise me."
"You got it Mione I will look after them."
Hermione passed away after Harry had promised her that he would watch after her children. Harry didn't let his tears fall yet he needed to find Ron. He searched through more of the rubble and found Ron dead from shrapnel impaled in his body.
Harry let out a primal scream from his lungs, his two best friends, his fellow Gryffindors, his father in law, and the ministry was dead. It looked like it this at the end of the war but, then again, Voldemort did not blow up the whole Ministry. He swore he would find the culprit behind this senseless disaster and make them pay for the death and destruction that they had wrought.
