The Aurors
1974
The Peak Of Lord Voldemort's Power.
'Avada Kedavra!'. A massive green flash of light came from the right direction of Marcus! Red and Blue light danced around the narrow hallway. Sounds of foreign incantations and spells filled the room. 'Stupify!' Marcus shouted at one of the cloaked Death Eaters. The masked man flew back several feet. Panic was starting to arise in Marcus. From all the flashing and noises he wasn't able to tell friend from foe. He could hardly hear himself speak over the loud 'Crashes' and 'Booms' in the room. Out of the corner of his eye, Marcus could see his own reflection in the spilled blood on the floor. At that moment, he knew the fight was serious. People were dying. His mentor Nathan seemed to be locked in a duel with a female Death Eater. She had wild curly hair and an oddly pointy wand. She seemed to have a lot of practice in dueling. Every time Nathan went in for an attack the woman blocked the spell even before he cast them. Marcus could sense someone behind him approaching him. Without thinking, Marcus pulled out his wand and said 'Expelliarmus!'. Before realising it , it was his friend Harriet. 'Come on!' she whispered to Marcus without drawing any attention to herself. Harriot grasped Marcus by the arm and sprinted towards a dark wood door. 'Where are we going?' Marcus asked. Harriet replied 'To the Portkey!' They sped to the large open area of the Ministry building. 'There's the Portkey.' said Marcus pointing to a large purple candle in the middle of the courtyard. Out of nowhere a group of ten or so death eaters emerged from the shadows of the building. 'You're not getting out of this alive.' said a large grumpy-looking Deatheater. A Marcus and Harriet spread to the portkey before the Death Eaters were able to attack. As soon as they touched the candle they were back in the Auror office.
