I do not own Harry Potter.
The general alarm caused everyone to wake up instantly. Everyone proceeded to their common rooms, while the heads of their house reported to the headmaster's office. None of the students even noticed that the windows were blacked out. The four professors reached the headmaster's office at the same time.
"What's going on?" Snape asked.
"Why are all the windows blacked out?" Magonagal asked at the same time.
Professor Dumbledore was surprised by Magonagal's question, as his window wasn't blacked out.
"I do not know why the windows are, but I have a fairly good idea. We are locked in the school, and the death eaters are locked out. However, they do have a siege line completely surroundings the school."
"So they did. Are you sure we are safe inside?"
"No to both. I assume that those responsible for the windows is also responsible for the several hundred death eater corpses that litter the lawn."
The four professors didn't know how to respond. However, the four prefects that had been assigned to take attendance showed up. Everyone was where they were supposed to be, except in Gryffindore. Three students were missing.
"Professor, as I was coming up from the dungeon, I thought I saw something in the entrance hall as I passed it, but decided that it was my imagination. Perhaps I was wrong." Snape volunteered.
The five professors proceeded down to the entrance hall. Inside they found five people slumped unconscious against the wall. Four were dressed in white tunics and red cloaks. They had gold and red gauntlets on each arm, and bloodied swords in their hands. The fifth was tied up, bound, and gagged. He was also unconscious. On the back of his neck was a tattoo. It was a shield divided into three parts, each with a symbol in it. One of the symbols was easy. It was the dark mark, the symbol of death eaters. The runes professor, the head of Ravenclaw House, recognized another one of them as a rune.
"He is a general, that rune is roughly translated into high leadership." She said
"What does the third mean, and who are they?" Snape asked.
"Good Lord!" Magonagal yelled.
"What?"
"Potter, Weasley, Finn, and Black." she responded, pointing to the others against the wall.
[[AN: Jordan Finn is Jordan Hufflepuf. I think I only used it once before.]]
The four that had defended the castle remained unconscious for six days. Harlin, the general that had been captured, woke up after only twenty four hours, but none had the will nor the ability to release the magical bindings that had been placed on him.
It was determined that the reason that they weren't waking was they had sapped their magical energy.
While they slept, the seige continued. Every one of the aurors that tried to help were killed. Nothing except Hedwig was able to enter or leave the castle. No one could figure out how the owl could bypass the barriers.
Finally, the four awoke, and prepared to end the seige.
Review please.
