Chapter 14: Aftermath

October 8th, 2007

Ministry of Magic, London UK

Sirius left his office after finally gathering the courage to approach his best friend. It still boggled his mind how he had let things get so bad between them and it all came down to his pride when Revan had unintentionally embarrassed his Aurors. Sure he took the law into his own hands and while Sirius didn't condone that kind of action, he was more embarrassed by the fact that Revan had needed to act in the first place.

After a short walk and elevator ride, Sirius was standing in front of James' office. He could hear his friend puttering around and he almost chickened out, the hand that had been raised to knock on the door froze for a second. Taking a deep breath, Sirius squared his shoulders as if he was getting ready for battle and knocked somewhat hesitantly on the door.

James' voice, muffled by the door, was still clearly discernable when he called out "Come in."

Sirius took yet another deep breath and opened the door. James looked up; a smile on his face until he saw that it was Sirius entering his office. He took on a blank emotionless expression as he glared at his best friend. Sitting with his back straight, James asked coldly "What can I do for you Captain Black? If you are here to try and arrest my son again I'm afraid you will have to find someone else to help you out."

Sirius winced and his face fell. His eyes, usually so full of life were now dull and brimming with regret. "James, I didn't come to arrest Revan. I came to apologize. I have been an ass ever since Revan came back."

James felt a smile trying to break free but he kept his face emotionless. He missed his friend and he wanted Sirius to get to know his godson. "Why now?"

Sirius shrugged before answering "I don't know. I miss you and Lily and Hailey. Revan is my godson; I want to get to know him. Honestly, I don't have a reason. It just finally dawned on me that I was punishing him for embarrassing my Aurors. He shouldn't have killed those Death Eaters that day in Diagon Alley. It wasn't his responsibility. That's the problem, he had no choice because my Aurors were either not there or ineffectual."

A feeling of relief began to spread through James as he heard the sincerity in Sirius' voice. "I can forgive you and I'm sure Lily can too. We have too much history together to give up everything now. The one I can't promise is Revan, though he is very pragmatic and if you explain things too him, he will probably give you a chance."

Sirius smiled at the chance James was offering him. "Thank you James. So what can you tell me about my godson?"

James snorted good naturedly "I don't even know where to begin."

"How about where has been for the last 26 years?"

James just shook his head. "As much as I want to tell you that is Revan's story to tell. I'm not sure you believe me even if I did tell you. Suffice it to say that Revan has led an extraordinary life."

"Was he trained to be a leader or was he part of the military somewhere? The affect that he has on people is somewhat frightening. Yet he has done more to mobilize the wizarding world then the Ministry or Dumbledore ever has."

"In a manner of speaking, he was part of the military. The things that he has seen and done are both horrifying and awe inspiring. He has lived a life that I would never have wanted for him and yet he has come away from those experiences to continue to fight for others and protect those who can't protect themselves."

"That explains his actions in Diagon Alley. Most people would have run the other way, but he and his friend just went forward with the weapons blazing. Speaking of which, what were those things?"

"They are called light sabers and they are the primary weapon of his …ahh order I guess would be a good name for it."

"They didn't look like any magic or muggle technology I have seen before. Where do they come from?"

Before James could answer, the door to his office burst open and Martin rushed in. His mind was just registering Sirius' presence even as he blurted out "James, there is an attack going on at Potter Manor. We need to get there immediately."

James shot to his feet even as his face paled at the implications of Martin's outburst. In seconds, his experience came to the forefront and he adopted a detached professional tone "We need to get there. Do we know if anyone is hurt? How many attackers are there?"

"I'm not sure, we got a signal from Bastila but you know they are not able to do much more than signal an attack." Martin answered.

Sirius was watching the two men and it suddenly dawned on him that James had to be an Unspeakable. There was no other reason for him to be so familiar with Martin. His demeanor was just another confirmation. Now the only question Sirius had was "How long have you been an Unspeakable?"

Martin cut off questions. "We don't have time for questions or explanations now. There is an attack at Potter Manor we need to stop."

Sirius nodded but the look he shared with James demanded that the conversation be picked up again when everything had calmed down. Together, the three men apparated to Potter Manor, not knowing that the attack was already over.

Potter Manor, Godric's Hollow UK

HK-47 continued to fire rapidly trying to bring Heto down. Heto just smirked at the droid as he parried the blaster bolts. Getting bored with the standoff, Heto activated his cloak field once again and raced away from the battlefield to observe the aftermath. The few remaining Death Eaters saw the disappearance of Heto as a signal and activated emergency portkeys.

Lily and Bastila rushed to Revan's side disregarding the disappearance of the Sith Apprentice and the Death Eaters. Tears were running down Lily's face as she looked at the pale face of her son, the wound in his abdomen was ragged and bleeding heavily. His black shirt had taken on a glistening sheen from the spreading blood. Looking down at him, all she could think about was the time she had wasted blaming him for having different beliefs. James had accepted him for who he was. She couldn't get past his actions in Diagon Alley; she had refused to look at them in context of the attack. She did not agree with his actions but the real problem was her. Despite her arguments to the contrary, it wasn't really the deaths that forced her to turn away. Only now, did she realize what her real problem with Revan was. She was afraid that something would happen to tear him away from her a second time and if he was fighting against Death Eaters, that likelihood seemed to be that much greater. So instead of rejoicing that she had a chance to know her son once again, she spurned him and derided his actions. Now she may never get another chance.

Next to Lily Bastila was questioning Revan's men. "Where is the medical team? If he doesn't get help soon, he is going to die." She could feel her bond with Revan weakening. It frightened her to see him so weak and vulnerable. Revan couldn't die, he was too important to... She struggled to finish that thought. The familiar refrain about Revan being an important part of the war and the defense against the Sith didn't ring true in her mind anymore. No, Revan couldn't die because he was too important to her. Only now, as the bond between the two of them faded did she realize how much she had come to depend on his strength.

She broke herself from her thoughts and once more addressed the soldiers that were milling about. She could see shock on most of their faces, but overriding even that feeling of shock seemed to be fear and worry as they watched their fallen leader. Bastila marveled at the loyalty that Revan engendered in these men, it was one of the things that made him great. "What is the status of the medical team?"

"They will be here momentarily." Answered Halcyon. He had joined Bastila by Revan's side.

"He may not have that much time." Bastila muttered. She was almost desperate enough to try and heal him with the force, but the last time she had tried to heal someone, they had died. Bastila's efforts had just aggravated the injuries. Then a thought came to her. "Lily, is there anything you can do?"

Lily's head turned slowly as she came out of her daze. "What…what did you say?"

Halcyon snapped at Lily, he had not been around the woman much but he found her not so subtle comments about killing to be annoying and offensive. "She asked if there was anything you could do to help Lord Revan until the medical transport reaches us."

Lily bit her lower lip in thought. Revan's wounds were too great for her to heal but there might be something. "Yes, there might be something. I can't heal him but hopefully it will keep him alive until help arrives."

Not bothering to wait for a response, Lily pointed her wand at Revan and muttered a soft incantation. A soft green glow spread from her wand until it encompassed Revan's entire body.

Bastila just watched, hoping that Lily would be able to do something for Revan. Then Lily cast some sort of spell on Revan and for a moment she had thought that she killed him. He chest stopped rising and he was no longer moving or moaning or doing anything. She would have attacked Lily if it hadn't been for the continued presence of her bond with Revan which told her he was alive but in some sort of suspended animation.

"Commander stop, she has not harmed him!" She said as she caught Halcyon pulling his blaster from its holster.

"How can you say that? He isn't breathing, she killed him!" He said through gritted teeth.

"No, he isn't dead, I can still sense him."

Both Bastila and Halcyon turned to Lily for an explanation. "It is an emergency medical spell. It dramatically slows the patient's metabolism to give extra time for help to arrive or treatments to be administered."

Bastila smiled gratefully and sank down to her knees next to Raven. Running her hand through his short hair, she lost herself in her bond to Revan. As faint as it was, it was comforting to her that it was still there. The thought of losing him was terrifying her now that the adrenalin was wearing off. He couldn't die, she wouldn't let him. If necessary she would try to heal him but luckily Lily's spell had given her hope that he would survive long enough for the medical team to arrive.

Halcyon closed his eyes and visibly calmed himself down. Even as he opened his mouth to say something, his communicator chirped. His hand reached into his pocket and removed the small device. Clicking a button he said "This is Commander Halcyon, go ahead,"

"Sir, we are in our final approach. We should be landing in 45 seconds." The pilot's voice was clearly heard by all those nearby.

"Understood. Lord Revan's condition is critical and every second is important." Halcyon replied, reminding them once again of the urgency of their assignment.

Everyone looked to the sky as the sound of approaching engines could be heard. A smallish grey shuttle was approaching at breakneck speeds. The landing struts were already deployed and it was evident that the pilot had taken Halcyon's words to heart.

With engines of the approaching ship roaring, no one noticed the arrival of a group of 5 Unspeakable agents including James and Sirius. Immediately, the Unspeakables started scanning the area for threats. When James caught sight of Lily and Bastila he rushed over to them. As he got closer, he noticed that they were hovering over someone lying injured on the ground. He couldn't tell who it was but there was a hollow feeling forming in the pit of his stomach. Afraid of what he would find but more afraid of not knowing, James ran full speed to

Commander Halcyon was watching the medical transport's approach when he noticed something out of the corner of his eye. Turning his head, he saw James running at them from the direction of the manor. Never having met anyone of than Revan, Bastila, and Lily Halcyon pulled his is blaster and prepared to shoot James. He wouldn't take a chance with Lord Revan's safety.

Bastila looked up when she noticed Commander Halcyon pull his weapon. Following his aim, she turned her head and saw James running towards them. Jumping back to her feet, she pushed Halcyon's arm down. "He is Lord Revan's father." She said simply.

Sirius was still standing in the same spot that they had arrived at. He mouth was hanging open as he watched a large flying craft unlike any muggle vehicle he had ever seen before land near the edge of the field. It wasn't until the medical team was rushing out of the ship that he realized everyone had left. Walking swiftly he made his way over to the James and Lily.

By the time Sirius reached them a minute later the med techs were rushing around. After quickly examining him, they applied a field dressing to Revan's wound and loaded him onto a stretcher. While he was being brought onto the transport, Lily was being questioned.

"What did you do to him? I barely detect any life signs."

"He is in stasis; it will only last for an hour or so. After that, his metabolism will return to normal."

"Excellent, that will be more than enough time to get Lord Revan treatment." The med tech said even as the rest of his team was bringing Revan into the transport.

Bastila spoke up "I will be coming with you."

"Of course. Commander Halcyon I will notify you of any changes to his condition." The med tech made his way back to the shuttle with Bastila close on his heels.

Seconds after the pair boarded, the hatch closed and the transport took off. Sirius just stood there behind James and Lily as he watched the transport rise into the air and disappear seconds later.

With the transport on its way, Halcyon turned to his men. "I want a standard deployment. Cordon off the area and do a perimeter search for any remaining hostiles."

The soldiers saluted the commander and began to execute his commands. Before Halcyon could move on to other tasks, the droid broke in, much to his dismay. "What does the meat bag expect HK-47 to do until master returns?"

Halcyon groaned softly and turned to face the annoying droid. "HK-47 return to the transport. Once Lord Revan has returned, I am sure he will have additional orders for you."

HK-47 acknowledged the order and walked back to the transport and was heard to be muttering by everyone nearby "Ignorant meat bags, they should all be terminated with prejudice."

Sirius had thought the transport was incredible until HK-47 spoke up. Once more, Sirius was mystified by what he was seeing, it was a mechanical man and apparently by its speech it didn't have a high opinion of people. After watching HK-47 walk away, Sirius couldn't take it anymore and blurted out. "James what the hell is going on here?"

James had been hugging Lily when Sirius spoke. After giving Lily another quick squeeze, he let her go and responded "These are some of Revan's men."

"Revan's men? I don't recognize the uniforms and that flying ship was unlike anything I have ever seen and don't get me started on that mechanical man that just walked out of here."

"Why don't we go inside, I will explain things there?" James said reasonably.

Once he had seen that the battle was over, Martin sent the Unspeakables home, while he stayed. This was his chance to finally get more of Revan's background. He had followed James over and was shocked when he saw how badly Revan was wounded. Even with magic, it would be touch and go and yet these people seemed more like muggles than wizards. Like Sirius he was amazed by the HK-47 and the medical transport but he was better and hiding it.

When James suggested they go inside, he followed along. He wasn't going to miss out on this. Once they were inside the manor, James led them to the den. After everyone had been seated James said "OK, I can give you some of the highlights of what you just saw but the details are for Revan to provide."

Before beginning his tale, James poured himself a drink. After offering one to everyone else, he returned to his seat and began describing Revan's past. In loose terms he told them of his childhood with the Jedi Order and his role in the Mandalorian Wars and the current war that was ravaging the Republic.

Martin was quiet throughout the entire thing. Much of the mystery around Revan was now clear to him. Despite this his apparent lack of reaction, he was reeling. The idea that there were thousands of populated worlds and flying between them was an everyday occurrence. The technology these people must have…

Sirius was not as restrained Martin. He was blurting out question after question. Like Martin, he was floored by the existence of the Republic. His godson was a general who was responsible for leading ships and men into battle. He had inspired the people to rise up and fight against the Mandalorians.

It definitely put the battle against Voldemort in perspective. It made things see so inconsequential, here they were struggling to beat Voldemort and his Death Eaters while Revan was leading millions of men in the defense in the thousands of different worlds.

"My god James, I can't believe Revan did all that. It's incredible."

James nodded and replied in a sad voice "Yes it is. He has done so much but there are things I can't tell you about. Despite everything he has done, he has had such a hard life. It isn't something I would have wished on him, even though he has done so much good."

Sirius said "But the way you describe this Jedi Order, it sounds like a very positive thing. It may be a little disciplined for my tastes but things couldn't have been that bad."

"I agree, but he didn't spend his entire childhood with the Jedi. He didn't go to them until he was 7 or 8 years old. The years before that were not the same sort of environment."

Sirius realized he wasn't going to get any more details out James about Revan's childhood. So, he decided to broach a separate topic. "How long have you been an Unspeakable?"

Lily started to cough as she swallowed her drink wrong. "What?" She turned hurt eyes towards James. "You're an Unspeakable? How long have you been an Unspeakable?"

James glared at Sirius. He looked at Martin and seemed to ask permission from the older man before answering. Martin gave an almost imperceptible nod to James. After getting authorization from Martin, James answered "Yes I'm an Unspeakable. I have been an active agent since shortly after Revan first disappeared."

Lily's face flushed red with anger and hurt "You've been an Unspeakable for 25 years and you never told me? How could you lie to me all these years?"

Martin answered for James. "Lily, James couldn't tell you. He wouldn't have answered the question now if I hadn't given him authorization. We routinely check out agents to make sure that they have not told anyone of their status, even their families. Anyone who does is Oblivaiated along with anybody they may have told."

James said pleadingly to Lily "Please, you have to believe me Lily. I wanted to tell you for so long, but the work we do is so important that I couldn't risk it."

"Important?" She said incredulously. "It was more important that being truthful with me?"

Now James was no longer defensive or apologetic. "Yes it was more important. In this one instance, honesty with you was not as important as my job." Lily's jaw dropped, she never expected James to say something like that. He continued "Lily, I don't think you realize what exactly I've been doing."

"Then explain to me what you've been doing!" She snapped.

"Martin approached me after Revan disappeared. I didn't join because I wanted to fight against dark wizards. I joined because I wanted to make sure that another family never had to go through what we did the night we came home to find Revan missing."

Lily didn't know how to respond to that. She could hear the sincerity in his voice, but it still hurt that he had never told her. It felt like she had been living a lie. "So, all those times you were away for work…were you on an assignment or whatever?"

James looked sadly at Lily "Lily, I know what you are thinking. No, our life together has not been a lie. We have two children to be incredibly proud of and I have never loved you less than I do now.

Please just listen to what I am saying. There was a part of my life that I couldn't share with you, not because I didn't want to but because I had no choice. When Revan disappeared it was the most painful time of my life and I know it was for you too. It seemed like nothing would ever be right again, the defeat of Voldemort wasn't worth the price to me. If someone had offered me the chance to go back and save Revan I would have even knowing that Voldemort's reign of terror would have gone on. So when Martin gave me the chance to stop future dark lords from tearing other families apart, I couldn't pass it up. It allowed me to channel my grief into something positive and to move on."

Lily was silent for moment as she contemplated James' words. Her eyes glistened with unshed tears as she remembered that Halloween all those years ago. She wasn't sure she wouldn't have made the same decision. "I understand why you did it; but, it still hurts."

James could only nod before Lily went on. "I just need time. It will take getting used to but I trust that you wouldn't do something like this lightly."

James didn't say anything. He just got out of his chair and gives Lily a tight hug, grateful that she was trying to be understanding about the whole thing. Of course, finding out your long lost son was raised on another planet tends to soften the blow for something like this.

Well, that was one battle fought and won. Now James turned to the second battle. "Sirius, you have been strangely quiet during this. What do you have to say?"

Sirius opened his mouth only to close it again as he reconsidered his statement. Finally, he said "I wish you could have told me but I know the importance of secrecy."

James just sagged gratefully knowing that he wasn't going to lose one of his oldest friends. "Thanks Sirius, that means a lot to me."

Now Sirius looked at James with another question. "Please tell me that you didn't know that you didn't know that werewolves were going to be targeted by that dark lord wannabe 15 years ago. Please tell me that Moony didn't die because your status as an Unspeakable was too important."

James at first was outraged that Sirius would even suggest that he would sacrifice Moony. He relented though when he saw the fear in Sirius' eyes. It was obvious that he was terrified that the he would lose the last of the Marauders. "God Sirius no, I never even knew about the dark lord until too late. That law we got passed this summer was more than window dressing. The Unspeakables have never operated on British soil until we got that law passed."

Sirius' body tensed and his face darkened anger. "How many people have died because of some bloody politicians being more concerned about their pockets than about the people!"

"I know Sirius; we have been struggling to get the law changed since before I even joined. It wasn't an easy decision to use Revan to help make this change. How do you think I felt, using my son who I hadn't seen for 25 years for a political gain?"

Surprisingly Lily said "Enough Sirius, I know you aren't blaming James but there wasn't anything he could have done. You said you were arresting Revan because he took the law into his own hands, this would have been no different."

"I know, I know Lily. It just still hurts knowing that Moony is dead because some dark lord used the werewolves to gather supporters and no one in power cared because it was just werewolves. Moony deserved better than that."

No one said anything to that; there was really nothing to say. Instead, James offered a silent toast to their friend.

Decimator, High Earth Orbit

The medical transport rumbled as it took off. Immediately after take-off, the pilot came on and said "We are scheduled to dock with the Decimator in 4 minutes."

Bastila looked over to the med-tech. "What's his condition?"

"Lord Revan is still stable, but that is most likely because he is in stasis. Luckily it is giving us enough time to get Lord Revan into a Kolto tank."

"A Kolto tank, so how long will he need to be in?" She asked even as she started to run her hands through Revan's hair again.

"Based on his wounds, he will probably be in the tank for 2 maybe 3 days. If there are complications it may be longer though."

Bastila tuned the med tech out after that. She went back to contemplating her feelings for Revan. When had they changed? Is this why she had felt so betrayed by him when he turned? She already knew the answer that that one. Yes, though she had never admitted it before or truly even understood it, she loved him. He had always been a bastion of strength for her and then he had turned to the dark side. The fight against Malak and the Sith was a valid enough argument for saving him, but it wasn't the reason deep down that she had gone along. Now, she knew she wanted to save him for the simple fact that she loved him and that was why she was willing to give up the light side for him. She would never go dark, but she would join him in the middle.

Jumping slightly when the ship touched down in the hanger bay, she let go of Revan's hand and stood up. Quickly she moved out of the way as they took the stretcher with Revan's body and rushed him to the medical bay for treatment. She followed ignoring the stares of the crew at the sight of a Jedi and continued her vigil once she was in the med bay, waiting for Revan to return to her.

Somewhere in the UK

Heto Malico was nervous. His mission had failed. The Jedi still survived. The stealth field he had used prior to the battle had enough power for him to observe for a few moments for before leaving the area. It had been enough for him to see that witch cast some sort of spell to save the Jedi's life. But, oh it had been glorious to watch the smug Jedi's eyes widen is surprise and pain when his blade slid into his abdomen. Yes, he would face the Jedi again and he would sow the seeds of fear in his mind before ripping the life from his body. Of course, he would do that if his master didn't kill him for his failure in the first place.

Upon entering his master's chamber, he approached slowly. His apprehension was growing with each step. Kael looked up from the documents and reports he was reviewing when he sensed the arrival of his apprentice. One look told him everything he needed to know. Now all that he needed to decide was whether the failure deserved death or not.

"Tell me why you failed? How was one Jedi able to best my apprentice and a group of Death Eaters?" Kael asked the threat clear in his tone though he had yet to straighten in his chair or otherwise move.

"Master he should have died. Everything went according to plan; the Death Eaters had distracted him while I approached him from behind. Somehow he sensed me through the stealth field and was able to block my strike. After a short battle, he was distracted by some dome droid throwing explosives and I ran him though. Before I could finish him off, the other Jedi as well as a witch approached. I would not have been able to get away had I stayed any longer." Heto said all this with his head down, accepting whatever punishment would come.

Kael's eyes blazed with power. His apprentice was a fool. "You should have died then if it meant completing your mission." He said coldly.

Heto felt the force swirl around his squeezing his body, slowly tightening its grip preventing him from moving. He watched with a bit of fear as his master rose from his chair and stalked over to him.

Again Kael's eyes blazed and Heto felt the force surrounding him change. He could feel the pressure being refocused and applied to his throat slowly. The airways were being constricted as Kael slowly increased the pressure. Spots started to flash in front of his eyes as he gasped for breath, his lungs screaming for oxygen. His mind was panicking as the need for oxygen became desperate. The edge of his vision started to go black and his mind started to shut down now that his airway was clamped completely shut. Then suddenly, he could breathe again and as he gasped for breath, he realized he was lying on the floor at this master's feet.

"Master thank you for sparing my life." He gasped.

"You will have one more chance my apprentice. If you fail again, the punishment will be far more severe. Perhaps it was a mistake to send you after the male. The female Jedi is clearly weaker in the force, without the bond that I have sense between them, he will be easier to defeat as well."

"Anything master, I will do anything you say."

"Leave me now, I will decide on a suitable punishment for you later." Kael said dismissing Heto.

Heto scrambled to his feet and left the room, not wanting to test his master's patience. If the woman was the key to defeating the other Jedi than maybe he could prove himself to his master by eliminating her. It would require careful thought and planning but he would do it. His master would not hear of another failure ever again. He returned to his quarters to begin identifying the best method for removing the female Jedi from the playing board.

Elsewhere in the galaxy

Darth Malak was pacing the bridge of his flagship. Despite his break from Revan, there was still a weak bond connecting the two men. Earlier he had almost been overcome by a wave of pain that swept over him from the bond. Obviously Revan had been badly injured, but unfortunately he was still alive. As long as he was out there, Revan was a threat to him. His forces had switched allegiance once already, there was little loyalty to him, he had never been able to hold them the way that Revan had.

An officer approached Darth Malak and said "Lord Malak, I have an update on the search for Lord Revan."

Malak spun around. "What is it? Do you have his location?"

The officer grimaced before answering "No, we do not have his location, but we have narrowed down the sectors that he could be in. Based on the hyperspace trajectories we were able to extrapolate from the deserters, we were able to identify 5 sectors that he could be hiding in."

"How many systems?"

"We don't have an exact count. Some of the sectors are on the rim of the galaxy and haven't be fully explored, but we are looking at maybe 40 or 50 systems."

If he could, Malak would have grinned. It would take time but he would find Revan and remove him from the board. It was his time to rule and no one else would threaten that. "Send probes to each system. We need to find him and eliminate him as soon as possible."

The offer snapped a salute after saying "Of course my Lord, it will be done."

October 9th, 2007

Headmaster's Office, Hogwarts School of Witchcraft & Wizardry

Albus was sitting behind his desk contemplating the course of the war against Voldemort. He was moving slowly, his attacks had been fewer and more effective than the first war. To his relief, uncontrolled fear had not spread throughout the public, but unfortunately many of them were not looking to him for leadership. They were looking towards Revan Potter. Surprisingly large numbers of young men and women had flocked to join Revan in his fight against Voldemort.

Without realizing it, a frown formed on his face as he thought about this. Those men and women were being trained to fight and kill in Revan's name. Even if the cause was good, the fact itself was disquieting. What would he do with his army once he defeated Voldemort? It was even more critical now that he come up with a way to bring Revan over to his way of thinking. Only he could ensure that Revan had the skills necessary to defeat Voldemort.

He looked up when he heard a rustle of wings. A brown barn owl flew in through the window and dropped off his edition of the Daily Prophet. He unrolled the paper and on the front page of the paper had his mind spinning with ideas.

Revan Potter Wounded in Death Eater Ambush

By

Veritas Hawking

Revan Potter, Unspeakable Agent, was attacked today at his home Potter Manor. Death Eaters ambushed Revan Potter yesterday morning while he was out taking a walk. While he was able to fight off his attackers, he was critically wounded in the fight and may not survive.

Is this the kind of protection we can expect from the Unspeakables? Clearly, they aren't even capable of protecting themselves. Instead of being out there fighting the forces of darkness, they are fighting to stay alive while being seemingly ineffective. Have we seen a decrease in the number of Death Eater attacks? When was the last time we saw a legitimate arrest rather than another scapegoat ruthlessly killed or thrown into Azkaban without ever being a chance to defend themselves in court?

Once again, I call on the wizards and witches of Britain to demand an accounting of the Unspeakables' actions. We need to have proof that we aren't replacing one Dark Lord for a group of them.

Albus recognized the article for what it was, propaganda supporting the pure blood agenda. The article did have good news, Revan was injured. Maybe he could convince James and Lily that Hogwarts would be the safest place for his treatment, it would give him easy access to Revan and surely he would be easier to manipulate while he was weak and injured.
