Prologue
It was a dark night. The moon was shining but seemed to far away to do anything for the darkness. Slinking in the shadows there was a woman. A hood covered her face. She was walking toward a bar. Above the door blinked a sign that read, the Leaky Cauldron. She stepped inside and nonchalantly walked over to a table and took a seat. A couple of minutes later a man stepped in and took a seat beside her. "I couldn't kill him." She whispered. She handed him an envelope that had been previously given to her by him a few days before. It was filled with money and a picture meant to encourage her to do her job.
"What do you mean? I paid you, so I expect you to do your job!" he said quietly but angrily as he snatched the envelope back from her.
"It is my job to do certain jobs that occasionally involve making people disappear, yes. But this man is innocent and I do not kill innocent people." She said calmly. He growled and grabbed her wrist. She took no time in prying his hand off her wrist and breaking one of his fingers. He cried in pain and stood up, holding his broken finger. By this time the other customers have noticed. He pulled out his wand and pointed it at her.
"You will come with me quietly without disturbing the guests anymore." He hissed at her, even though plenty of people were staring. She thought about disagreeing but took one look around and stood up. These innocent people didn't need to be involved. She walked with him out of the bar and around a corner into a deserted alley. "If you do not do the job I have asked you to then I will find someone else, but I cannot tolerate your rudeness or knowing of the crime I will have to commit. So now I must make you disappear. Get it? Crazy turn of events." He said chuckling as he pulled his wand out once more. She reached for her wand but realized it wasn't there. She doesn't usually bring her wand with her places. She was completely vulnerable.
He raised the wand and first cast a silencing spell at her, so she wouldn't scream. "Good bye now. Avad-" but before he could finish, a spell disarmed him.
"Petrificus totales!" another man shouted as he rounded the corner. The first man stiffened up and fell to the ground. The hero ran over to her. "Are you okay?" he asked her kindly. She nodded but pointed to her mouth to imply that she couldn't speak. He counter cursed her and she hugged him.
"Thank you! You had saved my life, although I could have handled it on my own." She said with a little smile on her face. He smiled and rolled his eyes back at her. "But seriously though, I am forever in your debt. I will make a promise to you right here and now that my family will protect your family to the best of our ability." She picked up the unconscious man's wand and held it out to him. She made her promise again, but much more permanent.
