First Battle

August 1994

Quidditch World Cup Final Venue

Harry, quick on his steps, arrived outside the tent and moved in the direction of the screams.

The whole area was in mayhem with people running around in fright.

Harry finally came face to face with the source of disturbance.

Almost a dozen man fully dressed in their death eater attire with their classic mask were marching forward, firing spells in random directions.

One of those death eaters was levitating four people, probably a family, and another one was torturing them using the Cruciatus Curse 'Crucio'.

Harry recognised the man among the four as the muggle who was managing the site area for the tents. Next one was a woman probably his wife and two children. The elder one being around 18 while the younger one around the same age as of Harry.

Witnessing almost dozens of wizards running away from such a small group, Harry could only mutter 'Pathetic.' He understood how easy it was for Voldemort to terrorize the wizarding world when no one had the guts the face these death eaters.

Harry willed and his invisibility cloak turned black and completely covered his body. A hood rose from the cloak and covered Harry's head. A black mist spread from the cloak covering his face completely and blurring rest of the body part. Only Harry's glowing green eyes were clearly visible to the outside world.

This was one such feature of the cloak, he had found about recently.

Harry's sudden appearance drew a lot of attention. Even the death eaters stared in his direction.

Harry let out a chuckle and brought out his Holly wand; and in moments he levitated one of the supporting steel poles of the tent, transformed it into a very sharp spear and banished it towards the man casting the 'Crucio.'

Before anyone could react further, the pole transformed spear pierced the man, embedded itself into the ground and the body of the death eater was skewered.

A fountain of blood gushed from the death eater body and he was dead in an eye blink.

All the screams suddenly stopped and every eye stared at him.

Giving no chance for anyone to react, Harry repeated the same process with another pole and banished it towards the man who was levitating the muggle family in the air. But unfortunately for Harry the man was alert and jumped to his side to avoid the spear, even so it grazed a bit of his arm.

Harry's second attack brought the death eaters of their shock and all of them fired curses at the same time in Harry's direction.

Thanks to Harry's enhanced body, Harry dived to his left, rolled on the ground and was on his feet in moments.

In a rapid succession Harry fired two blood boilers. One of the curses stuck a man squarely in his chest while the other one completely missed its mark. The death eater screamed in pain.

Harry's strength lied in his insane magical reserves and the speed with which he could cast magical spells. With the elder wand supporting his magical flow, using his Holly wand was very easy. No wand movements, no time waste in magical chanting of spells.

Harry could cast 3 magical spells in the same time in which the death eaters could cast 1.

Followed by his blood boiling curse, Harry cast a magical shield which was bombarded by the combined magical curses of the death eaters.

The shield held on its own, but was shattered at the last and two spells slipped passed the shield.

While one of the curses went just over his shoulder, the other one which was a cutting curse struck his left arm.

Harry felt an intense pain in his arm, the spell had managed to cut his flesh and almost reached his bones.

Harry knew that he had to do something quick. Even if he was insanely powerful facing a large number of enemies was very risky. Secondly, the aurors could be here any minute. Even if he was on their side and protecting the innocents, politics was a fickle thing.

Harry ignored the pain in his arms and fired a 'Bombarda Maxima' at the ground near the death eaters. Dust and debris rose in the air blocking the vision for both the parties.

Harry quickly dodged and jumped to his right side avoiding few of the curses that came his way.

Harry even when in air fired quick banishing charms on few of the larger pieces of pebbles floating in the air.

Though his vision was blocked, since the death eaters were in group, at least 2 or 3 of the banished pebbles struck the death eaters.

As soon as the dust settled, Harry saw one of the death eaters severely injured thanks to his banished pebble which had struck the death eater on the head.

Harry let out a hearty chuckle which echoed in the silence of the field, "I really overestimated you all. If you were Voldemort's stooges, I fail to see how did he even terrorize the whole country. You morons in a group can't even take down a single wizard."

The death eaters growled in response and another barrage of spells came in Harry's direction. Harry could make out at least 3 vivid light of the killing 'Avada Kevadra' curse.

With magical shield being out of question, Harry pulled a large magic reserve from his core and used a powerful 'Accio' charm on a standing tent nearby.

The summoned tent was ripped apart from the ground and came in between the death eaters and Harry Potter, taking the full brunt of the spells coming in Harry's direction. The tent was ripped to shreds in moment, but fortunately for Harry, every magical spell faded away.

From the corner of his eyes, Harry caught the aurors fast approaching.

Harry laughed, "Take my last gift."

And then he pulled a humongous amount of magic from his core and exactly at the same moment a huge bird flashed above Harry in lightning.

From Harry's wand erupted bolts of lightning and sailed towards the death eaters and in another of flash of lightning, both the bird and Harry Potter disappeared from the spot, bypassing all kinds anti-apparition and anti-portkey wards.
