When Tom was about to further test the resurrection stone, one of the elves that kept watch on Captain America appeared before him.

"Master! Trouble. Big trouble!" The elf exclaimed.

"What kind of trouble?" Tom asks and the elf begins explaining how the Howling Commandos are currently pinned down by some wizards.

When Tom heard this, he immediately thought that they had to be Grindelwald's followers.

After a quick debrief of the situation, Tom was going to go on his own to deal with it but decided against it. His followers could use some experience in the field and this is a perfect time to throw them in the deep end.

He wasn't worried much for their safety. As long as Grindelwald himself doesn't show up, Tom could wipe the floor with most wizards fairly easily.

Before heading to the train, Tom contacted his more battle inclined followers. He told them of the situation and sent elves to pop them on the train. They haven't been on the train nor the area around it, so his followers wouldn't be able to apparate on their own.

Among the followers going to support Steve and his men is Druella. Tom wasn't sure whether to bring her along as he was only taking Hogwarts graduates, but he knew she could take care of herself. He's been training her for a while and she very well may be the strongest of his followers.

Tom also ordered each of them to wear a porcelain mask to hide their face. Some of the slow-witted Slytherins asked where they could get such a mask on short notice. Tom just told them to transfigure one out of whatever's lying around. He really wanted to slap the few of his followers that asked him this.

It didn't take long for everyone to be ready and head out onto the train.

—————————————————————————

"Fuck Grindelwald and his dream!" Tom laughs as he pulls on the Eldritch energy and forms runes in the air.

When the golden runes appeared in the air before everyone's eyes, the passengers were captivated and shocked. Except for Tom's followers, of course. They've seen him do this a few times now.

The Howling Commandos were truly awed by the most beautiful act of magic they've ever seen. Though Grindelwald's followers were feeling the same, they are also shocked and confused.

Never have any of them seen such strange magic before. The new magic being wielded in front of their eyes sends alarm bells through each of their minds.

The Eldritch runes spread everywhere and imprint on every inch of the train car. These runes are something Tom learned while studying in the library at Kamar-Taj.

They're anti-teleportation and anti-portal runes that block almost all forms of magical travel. Now, everyone in the train car won't be able to escape so easily. The runes also block incoming travel as well, so no reinforcements will be arriving unless they arrive in a different part of the train.

Tom also added in some runes that would block any messages from leaving. Even he won't be able to send a message through the mark to his followers outside the train.

"I advise you all to surrender. I have things to do and don't have patients for annoyances today." Tom says as he aims his wand to the floor of the train car and starts transfiguring it.

The windows of the car become metal blocking any light from entering, and the doors on either side become nothing but walls locking everyone inside. Only a few bulbs hung on the ceiling of the dimly lit train car keep the area bright enough to barely see.

"We don't surrender to muggle loving fools that would turn on their own people!" One of the wizards yelled and the hail of battle began again.

Spells flew all over the train as the two sides went at it.

The Howling Commandos didn't fully understand what was happening, but they knew what reinforcements looked like when they saw them.

Soon the Commandos joined the fight yet again and assisted their magical friends.

While his followers and the Howling Commandos were fighting the wizards, Tom looked over at Steve and casually leaned on his piece of cover.

"So, how was your first run-in with some of my kind?" Tom asks as a killing curse thrown by one of his followers strikes one of the opposing wizards killing him instantly.

"You failed to mention there were more of you in our last meeting." Steve says as he pulls a pistol and fires randomly towards the enemy. "Nor did you mention their involvement in the war."

"Well, my people like to live hidden lives so I thought it best to keep that piece of information to myself." Tom says as he wonders something. "As for their involvement in the war, you've been mainly taking down Hydra bases. I didn't think Grindelwald would spread his influence to Hydra as well."

"Who's Grindelwald?" Steve asks as a spell breaks one of the shields blocking the enemy.

Seeing the opening, Steve grabs a grenade from one of his men, pulls the pin, and tosses it over.

"He's one of the most powerful and dangerous Dark Wizards to ever exist." Tom says as the grenade sails perfectly through the hole in the enemy's defense and explodes killing two wizards and injuring three more. "Nice throw." Tom comments as the wizards begin to panic and fix their defenses.

"We should retreat. At the rate the battle is going, we'll be dead in minutes!" One of the enemy wizards called out in fear.

"Yeah, grab the bodies of our fallen comrades and apparate back to base!" Another answered is anger at the sight of his fallen friends.

Soon the wizards began focusing on defense as they gathered their men. When they tried to teleport away, nothing happened and they remained on the train exactly where they stood.

"Did I give you permission to leave?!" Tom yells from the other side of the train causing the enemy breaks out in a cold sweat. "I'm growing tired of this, so I'll give you one more chance to surrender. Drop your wands and get down on your knees with your hands on your heads. You have three seconds to compile or you all die."

With Toms announcement made, he began to count down from three.

"3... 2..."
