It was the Monday of the second week of school and the whole hall was abuzz with conversation the pureblood children with siblings at home were the ones who were most fearful and they were also the easiest to rile. As Harry walked down the length of the table he heard the whispers of the muggleborn Hufflepuffs,

"Mark my words the Slytherines will thinks it's more justified to attack us now no one goes anywhere alone we have to stick together"

Harry also saw the suspicious glances of the Slytherine's sitting down he asked Wayne the only other Hufflepuff first year who up as early as he was,

"So Wayne what's going on?"

"A muggleborn group called the order of the fox decided to militarize itself they've kidnapped four pureblood heirs since they started two from light families and two from dark"

Fearfully Harry asked, "Is Alexander Greengrass one of them?"

Wayne shook his head, "He wasn't named in the kidnapped victims if you're looking for more information here's the article"

DUMBLEDORE CALLS FOR EMERGENCY SESSION OF THE WIZENGAMONT

Harry sat the paper down looking disturbed, "By tonight there will be people dressing up as death eater's killings muggles and muggleborns the match has been lit and the explosion will occur shortly"

Susan who just sat down hit Harry on the shoulder, "Don't even say that Harry Auntie's got enough to deal with at the moment"

The Wizengamont was in complete and utter chaos Dumbledore knew there was only one way to stop the chaos. Unleash his magic and lace his words with every ounce of thrall he could muster.

"SILENCE EVERYONE"

The entire hall quieted in seconds even those who didn't like him were momentarily enthralled by his power,

"I call this meeting to order I have a plan to stop these terrorist among our esteemed body we have the some of the oldest collection of magical knowledge in our world. I have the utmost confidence that a magical solution can be found which will help us find our heirs now with that in mind Cornelius has some words to say"

Cornelius stood up nervously from his seat, "I Cornelius Fudge Minster of Magic of Briton do hereby declare with the full support of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement that all previously banned magic except the unforgivable and magic that is used solely for the purpose of harming another legal until we find our missing heirs and I also officially declare that the terrorist organization the Order of the Fox enemies of the magical country of Briton. The second point I wish to make is a plee to bring forth any family magic that you may have that can aide the DMLE in the investigation it will not be recorded as illegal and you also have my assurances that any magic brought before us will be returned to you after we are done with our investigation make no mistake we will triumph in this difficult time do not lose hope for hope maybe is all we have"

Just as about Dumbledore was to take over a shout was heard, "We'll take care of those filthy mudbloods"

Dumbledore interceded, "Permanent Member Goyle please conduct yourself with a more civilized tongue I urge the rest of this esteemed body to not to give into anger and let the law handle this crisis"

Damon Yergin was a pureblood from a permanent family in the Wizengamont he came from a traditional light family he didn't believe in killing muggleborns, stood in the light as much as possible, and believed he who must not be named was nothing more than a madman who had way too much power. The last few days though had been different he had begun to feel the hate that the dark families held for muggleborns and began to understand it. His wife's face after their eight year old son Demetri had been kidnapped by the Order of the Fox. His family ring for whatever reason couldn't locate their son all he could feel was a feint presence assuring him that he was alive. Damon needed to lash out have revenge only the thought of his son had stayed his hand thus far. He turned around seeing Lucius and his cronies with a deadly glint in their eyes. Steeling himself he remembered what his grandfather always said that muggles were little bit than animals. Making a decision he followed Lucius and called to him,

"Permeant Member Malfoy may I have a moment of your time"

Malfoy eyes rose, "Yes Permeant member Yergin"

"My son Demetri has been taken someone has to pay so take me with you"

"I'd require your oath Yergin to never speak of what we do tonight"

As Damon stared into Lucius icy blue eyes he shivered in fear he almost seemed to have the eyes of a devil interrupting his thoughts was Lucius silky voice,

"I'm sure the decision isn't difficult Yergin"

Steeling his resolve he replied, "I accept"

Lucius smiled, "Excellent grab unto me Yergin we'll do side by side appartion then I'll require your oath. Don't worry it'll be just muggles tonight there not much more than animals"

They landed in a house with six others who were wearing death eater garb, "An honor's oath will do Yergin"

Damon nodded his family ring glowing slightly, "I swear upon the honor of House Yergin to not speak what happens for the next hour"

Lucius nodded, "That shall do Yergin we shall be done in plenty of time now put these on for the night's festivities"

Shortly after Damon put on the mask and robes he touched a portkey he was transported to a place littered with houses all looking the same the wizard to his right did a spell so the muggles wouldn't notice anything amiss even if they were staring right at them. Another wizard who was standing in the middle of the group raised his wand shouting,

"reducto"

At the door instantly destroying it a average looking man walked out,

"What's going on here?"

The silky voice of Lucius voice replied, "You've fathered filth so you're going to pay in full"

"Your wizards like my son"

"Crucio"

As the muggle screamed a woman ran out charging Lucius with a frying pan she was silently stunned by someone standing next to Lucius, "Filthy muggle we are much more than your son could ever hope to be and with your death we will remind him of his place"

A witch behind him conjured a stake big and wide enough for two Lucius voice then spoke softly into his ears,

"Levitate and bound them to the pole Yergin we will do the rest"

Nodding his head having a feeling that refusing would be deadly he levitated the husband and wife both at once,

"Tyre"

Two ropes bound the muggles to the stake he thought it was Nott's voice that spoke next, "Good let's end this," twelve voice's than shouted at once, "Fiendfyre"

Damon had never seen or felt the effects of the spell before it was the flames were alive and the heat felt like it was burning his skin. But before he could even think of anything more he felt tug of the portkey the last thing he heard would forever scare him of from doing such things again it was the desperate scream of two people in great pain.

Draco read his father's letter with narrowed eyes the ministry had put a blackout on the information meaning the daily profit and the wizarding wireless wouldn't report on it. But last night six muggles three sets of parents of muggleborns who were attending Hogwarts were killed. Apparently the muggleborn students would be informed and a spell would be placed on them so they couldn't share the information with anyone until the crisis was over. Draco thought the organizers of the attack weren't the smartest people on the block it was bad enough that purebloods were being kidnapped if the Order of the Fox found about the deaths they would certainly retaliate. With that thought in mind he burned his father's note it wouldn't do for the information to fall into the wrong hands. Not giving the information any more thought they were just muggles after all he walked to the library to get information on his transfiguration report when he saw what appeared to be a third year Ravenclaw crying in the corner after looking around for a few seconds he looked around seeing that the library was empty of anyone of note he decided to investigate,

"Why are you crying?"

"They're gone"

"Who's gone?"

"I can't say"

Realizing in a flash he felt extremely uncomfortable for a number of reasons first one was in the deep recess of his mind he had a feeling his father might be one of the wizards responsible for her parents death the second reason is he had never talked to a muggleborn before. Seeing she needed comfort he determined that a small hug shouldn't contaminate him too much

"My father's high up in the ministry and I heard about what happened for what it's worth I'm sorry"

After a couple seconds the Ravenclaw squeezed him in hug that was way too hard but she had stopped crying for the moment so he considered it a victory,

"Can you do me a favor Ms."

"Natell, Moraine Natell"

"Thank you Ms. Natell don't speak about this to anyone"

Rolling her eyes she replied, "As you wish little snake I have pen pal in Slytherine that I can't openly interact with for the same reason"

As he walked away Draco wondered if muggleborns weren't as bad as he thought. He also wondered if Astoria would be proud of him she always seemed to like it if he did heroic Gryfindorish things. Just then he heard one of the voices he didn't want to hear speak to him,

"That was very sweet Draco maybe you are suited for Astoria after all"

Draco slightly fearful and ignoring her jab responded, "Did anyone else see?"

Daphne sighed waving her hand through his perfect hair making it go all over the place, "On second thought you're definitely a lost cause"

Draco frowned taking out his comb and mirror that he carried with him for such occasions, "You will pay for this Daphne"

Smiling cheekily Daphne responded, "I'm quivering in fear mighty Prince of Slytherine"

Draco nodded to himself assuredly, "Of course you are"

Sighing to herself Daphne wondered what god she had angered to get stuck with Draco instead of Harry instead at least he wasn't an arrogant big headed ponce who worried more about his appearance than half the girls she knew.

Harry was done with his classes for the day and he was relived tensions in the castle were boiling over. So far today he had witnessed four fights in the hallways three of which were Gryffindor versus Slytherine the other being Ravenclaw versus Slytherine. He had almost got caught by stray curses several times. There were also very disturbing rumors going around that three muggleborn students had been rendered orphans though who the victims were and whether there was any truth to the rumors seemed to be wildly debated among the students Harry thought there was at least a grain of truth of rumors and so he didn't participate in any of them. Damn the Order of the Fox and damn the blood stained world they lived in where hatred and bigotry ruled the day. He also came to the conclusion that something was seriously rotted at the core of society in things got this bad in a school of all places. Interrupting his thoughts as he headed toward the Hufflepuff common room was Tonks,

"Hey Harry did you get into trouble already?"

Frowning Harry replied, "Not that I'm aware of why?"

Tonks smiled cheekily, "Because I'm supposed to escort you to the headmaster's office"

Cautiously Harry replied, "Sounds like a plan I suppose do you know if Professor Sprout going to be there?"

Tonks nodded, "Yeah she's the one who told me"

"Good I wonder what it is about"

Tonks shrugged, "I'm just the messenger however after your done I'd appreciate it if you told me if isn't to personal"

Nodding Harry responded, "Sure thing Tonks"

The trip didn't take long Tonks led him to a pair of stone gargoyles, "Lemon drops," the door opened and Tonks waved at him as he walked up the stairs, "Good luck Harry"

"Thanks Tonks see you around"

"Will do Harry"

A couple seconds later Harry walked up the stairs knocking on Dumbledore door almost instantaneously he heard Dumbledore's voice, "Come in Harry"

When he walked in the door he was relieved that both Amelia Bones and Professor Sprout were there though a tad worried what could he have done to draw the attention of the Head of Department of Magically Law Enforcement, "You asked for me Headmaster"

"That I did however Amelia can explain the matter far better than I but first have a seat and perhaps I can entice you with a lemon drop"

Deciding that even Dumbledore wouldn't be barmy enough to drug in from of the Head of the DMLE Harry replied, "Don't mind if I do sir"

Amelia brisk voice than spoke, "First and foremost you are not in any trouble Mr. Potter nor our you legally required to comply in any way that being said we'd appreciate your cooperation one of my employees was looking though old case to see if there was any magic that could help in the current kidnapping case. About a hundred years back your great grandfather worked for the Auror department for about ten years there was case like this where the regular magical methods weren't working and used a ritual from his personal library to successfully find the perpetrator. Would you be willing to look through your collection to possible find this ritual?"

"These rituals are legal due to Minister Fudge temporary order"

"Yes Mr. Potter and I'll assure you we will return the manuscript without altering or copying it without your permission. Also note that without the order it's legal to own the rituals but not practice them"

"Of course Madame Bones if I could get a temporary pass from Professor Dumbledore or Professor Sprout to leave school grounds to go to Perlington I'd be able happy to help you"

Professor Sprout spoke for the first time, "As it is a legal gray area since you are still under Hogwarts jurisdiction I'd like permission to go with you to Perlington"

Harry nodded, "That should be fine but I need to go first to give you permission to enter"

Amelia smiled, "Thank you for your cooperation in this matter Dumbledore please inform me if Mr. Potter returns with what we are looking for"

As Amelia was walking toward the floo to return to work Harry asked as question that would make the search far easier,

"Did the report record the name of the ritual Madame Bones"

Amelia shook her head, "It did not Mr. Potter"

As Harry walked to floo network he shouted, "Perlington"

Instantly Harry felt the ambient magic of Perlington surround him giving him strength. A couple minutes later Harry had finished giving Professor Sprout permission to enter and came back with her in tow. After a couple seconds of consideration Harry decided that an extra hand wouldn't be amiss and Professor Sprout was trustworthy enough not to take anything not that she would get far in Perlington with a stolen manuscript anyway,

"Professor Sprout would you like to assist me?"

"Is that safe Mr. Potter"

Harry nodded, "It should be as long as you only take the ritual manuscript out of the room with my permission"

"Then I'd be delighted Mr. Potter"

"Alright follow me"

Harry led Professor Sprout to Alexander's portrait in the armory, "Harry school's out already I could have sworn you just left. You certainly don't look much taller"

Smiling at Alexander Harry responded, "Not exactly several heirs to pureblood houses have been kidnapped the methods the DMLE have been using to try finding them haven't been effective. Apparently my great grandfather used a ritual while he was an auor in a similar case so they asked me if I could find the ritual"

Alexander raised his eyebrows, "This was asked in a legally capacity"

"The minister gave a decree that all magic brought forward would be overlooked until the matter is resolved"

"Interesting if you brought the lady behind you to help it isn't needed the ritual you seek is on the third shelf under the Battle Rituals."

"Thanks Alexander"

"Password Harry"

"Oh open up"

Alexander shook his head as the portrait opened into the ritual library, "You should really change that password Harry to something more obscure"

Even with Alexander pointing out exactly where to go it still took a couple of minutes due the rituals being scrolls instead of books with names on their spine. As Harry looked down at the scroll in his hands he murmured to himself,

"Another band aide a temporary solution at best"

It all came back in his opinion to the fear of muggles finding them and how to ensure with the changing technology that they wouldn't be found. If the muggles did them they would leave nothing but ashes in their wake. Lost in his thoughts he led Professor Sprout back to the floo,

"Hogwarts"'

As he tumbled into the headmaster's voice he heard Dumbledore's amused voice, "I've never met a Potter who could successfully use the floo so young Harry did you find anything of use?"

Harry looked into Dumbledore's grandfatherly twinkling eyes wondering how he could make himself look so unassuming,

"I did"

"Excellent I'll call Madame Bones right away"

A couple minutes later it was all over he got assurances that his name would be confidential so the Order of the Fox if they escaped wouldn't retaliate against him, reminding Madame Bones that after seven days the schroll would automatically return to his library, and he also gave her permission to make their own copy to help with future cases. That night Harry went to bed feeling content that he did his small part to help.

TWO DAYS LATER:

Francis Ray Head of the Department of Mystery's was pleased for several reasons first he got to use new magic, secondly the Department of Mystery's would get a copy of the ritual for their own personal library, and thirdly if the ritual worked which he was ninety percent certain that it would it would resolve this crisis getting rid of Minister Fudge except for the two days a week sitting through the weekly department meetings. Leaving the Department of Mystery's to do their job and discover the many secrets of magic Minister Fudge tampering came to ahead when not a single family came forward with a magically solution that could resolve the problem which shouldn't have been surprising considering the Department of Mystery's had tried several unsuccessful attempts at solving the problem. They had gotten lucky finding the Potter's ritual mentioned in old case files but then again most successful endeavors often required a fair bit of luck. He also wondered what else the Potter's had for rituals what he wouldn't give to access to that collection even for ten minutes. Interrupting his thoughts was one of his top members Tirana Stone,

"Mr. Ray the ritual circle is complete"

"Is the bloodied teddy bear also in place Mrs. Stone?"

"Yes sir"

"Very good you may observe from the predetermined safety line"

"Thank you sir"

Not bothering to reply Mr. Ray continued on six elite auors sat holding hands in the outermost circle while four unspeakable's stood in the innermost circle. The ritual did two things it broke any enchantments preventing entry using the power of the ten participants secondly the blood of the child combined with the residual magical subject from an object important to the subject would form a temporary mind link to the subject allowing the six auors to see out of the subjects eyes the auors would see the image long enough for them to appart. If the children were all in one place it would be an extraction mission with force coming in later to deal with the rest of the Order of the Fox. As Mr. Ray entered the innermost circle the chant began,

"Resmanal fa turan gi mayson"

The two circles along with the teddy bear glowed green the auors glowed blue and Mr. Ray felt a small tug on his magic before the auors disappeared.

Ramone Salone was pumped for the mission he was also getting bored the ritual had taken an hour or so to set up and he hadn't been allowed to move the entire time. His eyes moved to Mr. Ray as he made his way to the center of the circle it was time. Less than a minute later he was apparting it took less than a second to analyze the room he couldn't determine if he was disappointed that there would likely be no fight since the guards were outside or relived on how much easier that made the mission as a whole. Captain Rex had already set the silencing charms on the door so they couldn't be overheard when he turned to the children,

"Who are you," a brown haired girl asked

Captain Rex replied, "Were here to take you home"

The girl and the other kids gave them a big grin, "Anderson"

Replying without thought Bob Anderson replied, "Sir the appartion and portkey key wards are still down"

Rex nodded, "Kids men grab on to me or Mr. Salone and we'll take you home"

With a tug a split second later everyone was home.

Jacob Denary leader of the Order of the Fox received a mirror call from officer Owl,

"Sir our anti appartion and portkey wards were just ripped through seconds ago"

Taking out his second mirror quickly Jacob spoke into it,

"Bear," he was standing in front of the door, "Sir"

"Check the charges we have a code 2"

"Understood," the next thing he heard was, "Superfy"

"Bear"

"Fox the charges are gone"

"Shit get out of there yesterday I'll send a patronus to the doves in the house"

"Understood"

"expo patronum," a silver fox came out of his wand, "We have a code three leave immediately"

As it bounded away he hoped it would be in time there was nothing of importance in the house if
everyone escaped they were merely back a few steps if not most of the doves didn't know much but the little
they did know could prove costly to the cause.
