In America chapter 10
Dear Professor Dumbledore,
My name is Kevin and I'm writing to inform you that a band of...Deatheaters, I believe he called them, have attacked our school. The school itself is in ruins and I have no knowledge of there being any survivors other than myself, Mr. Potter, and a few of my gang members. (Albus paused at this.)
Mr. Potter is currently injured, as are several of my boys. He told us to write to you for help. Please hurry, I don't know how long we'll survive, and if there is another attack...
Sincerely,
Kevin
Albus sighed heavily as he read the brief note he had just received. Nothing ever went well for young Harry, not even a trip to America to get away from everything. He called Severus to his office, via floo.
"What is it this time Albus?" Albus placed the letter on his desk.
"I need you to round up a few people and go to America. There has been an attack on the school Mr. Potter is staying at and I'm afraid that the school is gone, though few students remain." Severus looked horrified. "I need you to retrieve them."
"Of course, Albus." Severus left the small office with a sigh and Albus leaned back in his chair to await the arrival of the survivors.
"Hold on Harry. I've sent word to Dumbledore." Kevin smoothed the hair around Harry's forehead. "Help will arrive soon." Dae sat curled beside Kevin while the remaining members formed a tight circle around them.
"Where's Ron?" Harry whispered. Kevin's arms tightened around him. "He's.gone, isn't he?" Harry buried his head in Kevin's chest. Kevin rubbed his back soothingly as several faint pops sounded around them.
The gang had their knives out in a flash. "Who are you?" One of them growled. One of the figures that stepped foreword and removed his hood.
"My name is Professor Snape, I came from Hogwarts." Harry stirred in Kevin's arms. "Where are our students?"
Kevin staggered to his feet with Harry in his arms. Snape gasped. "I'm afraid Ron wasn't so lucky." Harry tilted his head to see Snape staring at him.
"All right. I want everyone to grab a hold of a teachers arm. We will apparate to Hogsmeade, then walk to the school. Thank god it's the holidays." Snape grumbled. Everyone scrambled to obey the man and soon they were whisked away.
