Enter Penelope, speaking to Wormtail and Selwyn.

Wormtail. What? What did you say?

Penelope. The ambassadors are Auror Knights, I believe.

Selwyn. I knew it. They're here to force a settlement.

Wormtail. You distract them. I will contact Lord Voldemort.

Selwyn. Are you brain-dead? I'm not going in there with two Aurors! Send the prefect.

Penelope looks flustered at this, but enters the room where the Aurors are to give them flasks of butterbeer.

Sirius. Is it in their nature to make us wait this long?

Remus. No. I sense an unusual amount of fear for something as trivial as this trade dispute.

Wormtail and Selwyn speak with a Floo image of a tall pale-faced man.

Selwyn. This game of yours has failed, Lord Voldemort. The blockade is finished. We dare not go against two Aurors.

Voldemort. (to Wormtail) Wormtail. I don't want this slime of filth in my sight again.

Exit Selwyn.

This change of events is unfortunate. We accelerate our plans. Begin landing your troops.

Wormtail. My Lord, is that legal?

Voldemort. I will make it legal.

Wormtail. And the Aurors?

Voldemort. The Minister should never have brought them into this. Kill them immediately.

Wormtail nods, and Voldemort's image blinks out.

Green-colored mist begins to fill the chamber where Remus and Sirius are.

Remus. Gas!

Remus and Sirius perform Bubble-Head Charms.

A group of skeletal Inferi droids head for the room. The leader is speaking to a Floo image of Wormtail.

Wormtail. They must be dead by now. Destroy what's left of them.

As Penelope scurries out of the room, a group of Inferi enter.

Unfortunately for them, Remus and Sirius had their lightwands out and began slicing them down.

Wormtail and Selwyn see an Inferius cut down in the fireplace.

What is going on down there?

Selwyn. Have you ever encountered an Auror Knight before, sir?

Wormtail. Well, no, but I don't . . . (begins to panic) Seal off the bridge!

Selwyn. That won't be enough, sir.

The bridge doors slam shut.

Wormtail. I want dementors out there at once!

Selwyn. We will not survive this.

The Animagi begin to panic as the Aurors appear on the viewscreen.

Wormtail. Close the blast doors!

The blast doors begin to shut.

Remus stabs his 'wand's blade right through the doors. It goes right through to the other side.

Selwyn. They're still coming through.

Wormtail. This is impossible!

Selwyn. Where are those dementor droids?

A group of dark cloaked figures fly into the room where Remus and Sirius are.

Sirius. Professor! Dementors!

Remus turns, and he and Sirius try to deflect fire from the Dementors.

They have Shield Charms!

Remus. It's a stand-off! Let's go!

Remus and Sirius evade the dementors and jump into the ventilation shaft.

Remus and Sirius look out the vent and see groups of monster droids - Inferi and dementors - board large tanks.

Monster droids.

Sirius. It's an invasion army.

Remus. This is an odd play for the Department of Magical Cooperation. We must warn the Spinners and contact Minister Fudge. We'll stow aboard separate vehicles and meet back on the surface.

Sirius. You were right about one thing, Professor. The negotiations were short.

Remus smiles mildly, and waves for Sirius to follow him.

Exit all.
