A tall man dressed in a black Trench coat with a pointed inverted cross like shield symbol on the sides, waved his gloved hand in a motion that told the three other men with him to duck down by the stone wall. When the two long haired wizards and one bald wizard knelt down next to him then man leading them whispered urgently, "Now when we infiltrate the building, Kill all the Threats… Leave the innocent ones alone!" The bald one and the shorter haired wizard nodded. The leader looked at the man with Black Hair down to his ankles and grabbed him by the collar. "We are not murderers…we are protectors of the innocent…I know you didn't mean to harm the Woman but it happened. Everyone makes mistakes… We need your skills." the Younger man nodded.
The leader stood up slowly and glanced over the small shoulder high wall to keep out trespassers. Kneeling down again he looked at the bald man, "Any ideas on distraction?" The man smiled tilting his head to the left the tribal tattoos on his skull barely visible in the dark. The leader then looked at the man with dreadlocks and said "this is your first time on mission…try not to get killed." The leader and the tall and agile man leaped over the wall and sprinted across the yard towards the huge manor. The bald man placed is hand on the man next to him and said "Welcome to the Legion." He leaped over the wall followed by the newest member. When they were running the bald man muttered under his breath and a small ball of swirling green flame appeared in his gloved hand. While running at full sprint he threw it at the building right between the leader and the large agile man.
The wall exploded violently in large pieces of brick and green flames, the wall collapsed and the three floors of the home was visible from outside. Both of the men in front kept sprinting at an almost unbelievable speed. When the wall began to crumble they simply jumped out of the way of the falling debris and did a series of flips to make it inside. The Bald man was rapidly approaching when he jumped and levitated himself next to the other two. The fourth member did an impressive feat by apparating around several times with out sound and finally apparating next to the others.
the long haired wizard blew a hole in the floor and jumped down. The bald man disappeared in a shadow and his foot steps were heard on the floor above them. The two remaining wizards took off in the direction of the sounds of people screaming and chaos. The attackers made their way through the expansive and luxurious home in darkness and silence. Rounding the corner the white haired leader saw a dark wizard and cast a spell on the man with out an ounce of mercy or pity. "Xeanosa" the wave of orange erupted from his hand and the spell hit the death eater in the chest. The death eater tried to scream in agony as his ribcage crushed and his lungs and heart exploded in his chest. He fell on the floor dead and the two Members kept running through the house not caring about the dead bodies the ministry would clean up.
There was the sounds of explosions and screaming coming from upstairs but the floor below was completely silent until there was the blast wave of an explosion and yells of pain. The experienced wizard and the new apprentice came into a large open area leading into the ball room. The two wizards burst into the massive ball room and saw the dark lord's high command Lucius Malfoy and his son trying to gain more followers. The dark lord has been over in the united states gathering massive amounts of loyal death eaters since he wants to take control of everything. The leaders eyes burned with intensity as from his hand erupted a purple shockwave that shook the house and hit everyone except the two Malfoy's who managed to apparate away. Unfortunately for the people hit by the spell they were unceremoniously dropped to the ground writhing in pain as every blood vessel in their bodies ruptured. When the room was silent the bald wizard dropped through a hole in the ceiling he just put there.
The bald wizard shook his head "There was six dark wizards I took down… about twenty got away." The white haired man nodded and then out of a shadow the wizard with amazing reflexes appeared wiping a short sword blade clean on his black silk shirt. "I was able to get about twelve and Mcnair will be extremely sore after I stabbed him but about sixteen apparated away." The leader looked at him and scowled "Well I took these forty and one other but I couldn't get Malfoy." Looking at each other they followed the leader into a portal he summoned.
After the portal closed Aurors from the ministry flooded the place and found the grizzly scene. Tonks stood next to moody and Kingsley as the junior Aurors cleaned up the dead while they cleaned and fixed the huge amount of damage done to the house. Kingsley leaned towards Moody and gently stated "Moody this is the eighth scene just like this one, these are professionals we're dealing with." Tonks scowled at the tall black man. "You don't have problem with all these killings do you Kingsley?" The Auror straightened his shoulders "These casualties are people Voldemort was rallying to his cause…any deaths of these American dark witches and wizards just mean they cant attack us in the name of Voldemort!" Kingsley stated a little more forcefully than he wanted too.
Moody stood between the two arguing adults and gruffly snapped "Well, These cases have the same motive and same tactics as the string of attacks in the united states." Tonks tilted her head "You think these are the same people in both cases?" Moody snorted in laughter and smiled his disfigured face even more frightening "I think I know who is behind these precision attacks…" Kingsley watched Moody intently to hear who could pull off such a grand attack. Moody Smiled as if remembering something fondly "The Black Shield Legion are the only ones who could really organize something so elaborate."
Tonks and Kingsley both shuddered visibly at the thoughts of the 'Legion' and how they're the best of the best in the apprehension of dark wizards and how brutal they are. Tonks shook her head "Were they not disbanded when Voldemort was destroyed in the first war?" Kingsley cleared his throat loudly and said " No… they just went underground in the united states and world wide. They are the best and they have been watching Hogwarts and all of the magical schools looking for qualified applicants." Moody looked at him appraisingly and turned to him face to face. "Do you have connections into the Legion?"
The tall man nodded and explained, "I was going to go talking to Dumbledore about headquarters not having enough security. He was in a meeting with the leader of the Legion when I came in. He introduced me to him and the leader has been in contact with me for about a year. He has told me he is beginning to take interest in Harry and the daughter of Ayden Lovegood especially but also in the two youngest Weasley children, Neville Longbottom and miss Granger." Tonks squeaked loudly and said nervously "In what way are they interested in them?" Kingsley shrugged his shoulders and apologetically answered "I don't know but since Dumbledore entered them into the order they will make a stop by the Headquarters sometime…"
Moody's eyes went wide and one of the junior Aurors approached them and reported that all the damage was fixed and the dead was taken way. Moody dismissed the remaining Aurors and said to the two order members "We are going to go to the Weasley's so they know the current situation…I did not know we had relations with the Black Shield legion and that they are order members."
The three members apparated to the Burrow where the order was still on high security there after the attack on the home of the Durselys earlier that day. When they arrived the Order was expecting the three Aurors. Moody interrupted the questions about the latest string of attacks and told them "Kingsley told me some rather helpful information…There are some hidden members in the order." Everyone turned to Kingsley and some scowled at him. Molly Weasley glared at him and coldly asked "Well, who are these hidden members?" Kingsley shrugged his shoulders and stated "The thirteen members of the Black Shield Legion…"
Lupin's eyes went wide and stood up "No way they are murderers!" There was a resounding crack which was someone apparating into the room uninvited. "We are not murders, but keepers of the light and we use those killing curses to stop anymore unnecessary death and violence." The mans voice was gentle and unusually strong. When the order members turned to see who came in Tonks drew her wand and pointed it at him and cast the stunning curse. The man flicked his hand and sent the curse back to her and sent her flying.
The order was pulling their wands until Kingsley stood in front of him and said "leave him alone, He only defended himself when she attacked him." The man extended his hand towards her and cast "Enervate" Tonks stood up and held her wand tightly. Kingsley stepped to the side and said "This is the leader of the Black Shield Legion."
The man was around six and half feet tall, his white hair was tied back into a pony tail reaching his waist. His eyes were silvery gray with a violet ring around the pupil. He was dressed in a fine black silk shirt slightly unbuttoned. His pants were black and loose fitting with two daggers secured at each side of his waist. His hands were covered by a pair of black fingerless gloves that were silver studded and bore a wide pointed inverted cross shape on the backside of his hand. He had tribal tattoos that were visible on his neck and side of his face. His face was expressionless and cold but underlying with gentleness. He bowed gracefully and calmly stated "I'm sorry, My name is Tristan Andromeda Lovegood. This is your home and I apologize for my presence but I just wish to inform you that the Black Shield Legion is joining the fight against Voldemort. We are willing to train Harry and his friends if it is their will."
The room was silent until Lupin approached him and extended his hand to him and said "Well you are in the order so…Welcome. Anything you can help with will be greatly appreciated." The man shook his hand and smiled. Lupin released his hand and said "We will be at headquarters tomorrow come by around noon." Tristan nodded and apparated away. Lupin turned to the order as he sat down tired and frustrated and asked "Bill will you go check on them for me please?" Bill nodded and Fleur followed him out of the room.
The young couple made their way up stairs and parted ways so they both could check the two rooms faster. Bill opened the door to the boys room while Fleur opened Ginny's room. Bill saw Hermione sleeping peacefully in Ron's arms with his hands resting on her midriff. Bill glanced over to the other bed and saw Ginny sleeping next to Neville, where she was cuddling into his arm and chest. The young man smiled and shook his head, "I cant let Mum know about this…" When he closed the door he saw Fleur Leaning against the door frame her arms crossed. Bill came behind her and wrapped his arms around her and saw Harry holding Luna in his protective arms. Luna was grasping Harry tightly in her sleep and the two adults looked at each other and smiled.
They closed the door and entered the kitchen where they reported that they were all sleeping. Lupin nodded and said "Let them sleep they will be busy tomorrow." The order all left and Lupin pulled Bill aside "What is going on with them or do I have to look myself?" Bill shook his head and said "They are sleeping… Luna and Harry are sleeping together and…" Lupin opened his eyes wide in surprise "What are they doing sleeping together?" Bill shook his head again and said "They are just sleeping let them be…" The last remaining Marauder glared at him and sighed heavily "Fine but nothing better happen." With that he used a port key and left. The rest of the Weasleys made their way to bed in preparation for tomorrow.
