The-Boy-Who-Vanquished (III) [Chapter 345]

~~Eurostar Terminal, London~~ (January, 13th, 1995)

"Are you sure we are at the right place? This is not Waterloo Station" Fenrir growled as he read the name of the signboard. Most of the Death Eaters accompanying them were also looking irritated and annoyed. If they were at the wrong place then the Dark Lord won't be pleased with them.

"According to the map, we are" The werewolf reading the map tried to explain meekly. Fenrir grabbed his collar and pulled him close to glare at him before pushing him away. 

"You, you, go around and ask if we are at the right place" Fenrir ordered as he pointed at two of his pack members. The two of them gave him a respectful nod before leaving.

"Greyback, for your sake I hope we are at the right place" Dolohov sneered while fingering his Wand just in case Fenrir decided to try his luck with him. He knew that Fenrir wasn't foolish enough to try something like that, but sometimes having numbers on their side could make people do stupid things.

Fenrir snarled at the man… He knew how he would look in front of his pack, but he knew he couldn't attack Dolohov. The man might have spent years in Azkaban, but he was mostly healed and that was enough for him to tear him and his pack apart. A few seconds later, his men finally returned and Fenrir decided to use them as a distraction.

"Fenrir, this is the right place. Apparently, sometime a year ago they changed the name" One of the men explained. 

"We are at the right place… Let's get moving!" Fenrir ordered and glanced at Dolohov to give him a mocking look, but the man simply decided to ignore him. Dolohov still couldn't understand why the Dark Lord asked the werewolf to lead the mission instead of him. He would have been a better choice in every regard, but he realized that the Dark Lord must have his reasons.

"Well, lead the way then" Dolohov said while giving Fenrir a challenging look… Fenrir simply scoffed derisively before he entered the subway…

~~Nott Manor~~

"Bella, you know what to do, right? You need to inform me as soon as Potter arrives" The Dark Lord reminded the deranged woman, who frantically nodded her head with a look of fanaticism on her face. The Dark Lord didn't mind, in fact, he encouraged it. "However, do be careful. They might try to fool you with your niece since I have heard that she is a Metamorph" The Dark Lord warned.

"She is no family of mine!!" Bellatrix shrieked, much to Voldemort's displeasure, but he didn't show it on his face. "If I wasn't waiting for you in Azkaban, then I would have chopped up that little abomination and fed it to that traitor of my sister!" She continued to rage and the Dark Lord smiled at her words. There was a reason why he chose Bella for this mission.

There was a good chance that Bella and the rest of the attackers weren't going to survive facing Potter. It was going to hurt losing them, but getting his hands on the Prophecy was more important… There was another reason why he chose Bellatrix for this mission. Bella might be his strongest lieutenant, but with her insanity, it was simply impossible to keep her under control.

However, that did not mean that he wanted to get rid of her… Her derangement aside, she was one of his most loyal followers. She would carry out any of his orders without question…

"If you capture her then you are free to do so. However, your mission is to kill Sirius Black" Voldemort decided to remind her in a cold tone. "Take some Portkeys before you leave, and remember, failure is not an option" He added after a moment of silence. He wanted all of his words to sink into her brain and since her mind was unstable, he didn't want to overwhelm her.

"Of course, my lord" Bella immediately agreed. "Come on Rudy, let's go" Bellatrix called out as she grabbed her husband and started to drag him out of the room with her brother-in-law and a few more Death Eaters following her out of the room.

"My lord, when are we going to move?" Augustus Rockwood asked. He knew that the Dark Lord planned to take him to the Department of Mysteries to grab the Prophecy.

"As soon as we get the confirmation that the Ministry and Potter are out of the way" Voldemort answered. His plan was perfect and he wasn't able to dampen his excitement at the prospect of grabbing the Prophecy…

~~Eurostar Terminal, London~~

"Do you think they are going to attack?" A junior Auror asked while looking around nervously. He was a recent graduate and while he knew that being an Auror was a dangerous job, he never expected the Dark Lord to return, or Potter to become a Dark Lord, or Grindelwald to escape and join Potter in his lifetime.

"Stay focused, rookie. The Minister is sure that there is going to be an attack" A senior Auror scolded the junior Auror. All of them were nervous, but thanks to their experience, the Senior Aurors could hide it better… However, none of them were happy with how they were using prisoners to bait the attackers.

Alastor, who was standing at the front of the group, simply glared at the people milling around and didn't say anything… Even he wasn't happy with the choice Amelia had made, but what other choice did they have? If Amelia was to be believed, if everything went according to the plan then they could simply finish Voldemort and all of his forces in one go.

"Look alive, people. Fenrir has been sighted along with his pack and they are not alone. Dolohov is with them along with another 30 Death Eaters" Amelia announced as she stepped into the pit along with Rrufus.

Another round of nervousness spread out… The time for waiting was almost over, but right now that they were about to face so many enemies, they were just a bag of nerves… Amelia looked over the gathered Aurors and she could understand why they were so nervous, but there was not much she could do to change that. Giving a speech might work, but Amelia that would do more harm than good…
