A power the Dark Lord Knows not!
The next hit!
The Quartet was reading the Daily Prophet, of the death eaters killed in the raid. The Malfoy and Lestrange families were totally wiped out. Crabbe and Goyle and their sons were also among the dead.
These people were being touted as upright and outstanding citizens, and their murders should be brought to justice. Minister of Magic Pius Thiknees had left the manor not an hour before the attack was beside himself with grief.
The fact that Toms entire inner circle was wiped out was never mentioned.
Riddle Manor
Inside Riddle Manor, Lord Voldemort was fuming. He could detect no magic having been used on Malfoy manor. His death eaters were torn to shreds. All he had now were raw recruits, and most of them couldn't possibly lead a successful raid. Not only had he lost his best and brightest, he lost the inflow of their money. The Goblins would lock down the vaults until the will readings.
His Snake had been destroyed as well.
Number 12 Grimauld place
The Raid had been surprisingly easy, and the four were celebrating. Dudley came up with another idea that sent Hermione off into the Black library. When she emerged She was holding a book that looked like it weighed more than she did.
The runes in the book had hit the nail on the head.
Silencing runes, when her majesties government got these weapons back they would be impressed.
When Hermione finished etching the runes and Harry charged them, the sniper rifles and machine guns were ready.
Dudley not being able to be in a magical fight was to be the sniper at a thousand yards away. Hermione also was brewing potions to dip the bullets in that would give them more striking power, and few little tricks, she was also making silver bullets that fragmented when they hit.
The next target was a witch they knew and hated. They would do a hit and run on Knockturn Alley.
Umbridge may have been a bitch of a witch, but she was also a cat lady. Of course she would only buy supplies from the Magical Menagerie. Hermione felt bad for what she was going to do but it needed done. They set a claymore mine at the door of the store tied to her magical signature. When she walked in the door it would blow up in her face.
She always bought her supplies on Saturday afternoons. The raid would go off at the same time as the claymore. Dudley would be under Harry's invisibility cloak on a roof top over looking the alley with a machine gun. Harry and Hermione would be just outside the alley to take out stragglers. While Luna used RPG's on the shops and bars of known death eaters and their supporters.
It went off with out a hitch. With most of Diagon Alley now boarded up. The only people really out were the few death eaters. When the claymore went off Dudley was taking out everyone insight Luna Fired off twenty RPG's starting with Borgin and Burkes. In under three minutes Knockturn Alley was a burning pit. Bodies were strewn everywhere. Harry and company regrouped used the time turner and were back home not three minutes after they left.
