Reima watches as Ciri shows no mercy and burns the rest of the Death Eaters alive, he waves his hand in-front of his face to get the smell of burnt human flesh away but it doesn't do much.
Ciri manages to dislodge her sword out of the rubble and falls backwards off of the mound, Reima dashes forward just in time to catch her.
Reima "Good job." he says as he holds her in a princess carry.
Ciri gives a smug grin, "Did you expect any less?"
He chuckles, "No, I suppose not..." he says as he continues to hold her...
...
...
It starts becoming awkward and she finally asks "Er, can you put me down already?"
He nods embarrassed at his error and lets her feet down first, he's about to try retort but is interrupted as around fifty Auror's suddenly surround them.
"HALT SURRENDER, YOU'RE UNDER ARREST!" one shouts but is slapped around the back of the head by a stern looking woman. "Ah, forgive me Madam Bones" he says and backs away.
Barty Crouch the the Head of the Department of International Magical Cooperation walks forward and points his wand in Reima's face, "Where are your accomplices!" he shouts.
Reimas's eyes narrow dangerously, "Get that stick out of my face or you won't like the consequences" he states, the his bloodlust from the recent battle only intimidating the man further. It seems however that he's experienced the horror of live battles and manages to hold his ground, "I repeat! Where are your accomplices!"
An Auror behind them says "Wait! These are the two that fought the Death Eaters before we retreated for reinforcements." he hurriedly explains.
Amelia walks forwards, "I thought I had seen your face before. You're Ciri Rivia, slayer of Black."
She nods, uncomfortable that she's so well known in this world.
Amelia directs everyone to lower their weapons as there is enough evidence to suggest that Reima and Ciri were helping to combat the Death Eaters. "Did they escape?" she asks.
Reima tries to stifle a grin but can't seem to manage it. "No, you'll find their... Remains behind here." he says pointing at the rubble.
A couple Auror's walks around but their faces become white and a few gag at what they see, one has enough composure to present their findings and levitates a completely charred corpse forwards for Amelia to see.
Her nose wrinkles at the smell and she looks at the duo, "Did you do this?" she asks.
Ciri nods, "They got what they deserve, I have no idea how many were hurt or even killed but violent unprovoked attacked deserve lethal retaliation."
Amelia "That is not your choice to make, though you haven't broken any laws due to this being self defence, as brutal as it may seem."
Reima "I may have... Captured one of them alive." he says as he walks over to a passed out Gibbon... Who's lacking arms and legs.
Amelia squints her eyes at Reima, wondering how a young man such as himself could become so brutal to sever someones limbs and talk about it like it's nothing.
Amelia orders the Auror's to investigate the scene to see if they can find anything, she then look at the duo as says "I'll have to take you two in for questioning, no need to worry as it's just a formality. Though, guessing by there attire you might find a certain group clambering for your arrest." she's about to continue when Reima's ears twitch, "Is that... Screaming?" he unconsciously mutters out loud.
Ciri looks at him oddly, "No, I don't hear anything."
Amelia "Look, if this is to get out of questioning then it won't work, these procedures are in pla-" She tries to explain but Reima is already sprinting off in the direction of the screams. He sprints towards the forest where the feminine screams seem to be getting louder, this forest seems to have been made via magical means as he sees a large clump grouped together as if a wall had been made created with them. Reima keeps running as if they're not even there however and barrels into a tree, causing it to explode into a shower of wooden splinters as the upper part falls to the forest floor.
He continues running and hears a male voice replacing the female one, it sounds familiar and realises that the Dark Mark hadn't been cast in the sky yet... Had he changed the future too much?
With his Slumbering Dragoncrest Ring he silently sneaks into the dark treeline and sees a man standing over Harry Potter who seems to be having a seizure. Knowing this is probably due to the torture curse he sneaks up behind the man and prepares to bisect him, that is, until he turns and sees his face. "Oh, David Tennant? Lucky I didn't cut your head off... But I guess I could leave you with a souvenir.." he says with a grin on his face, deciding that the only lasting damage he could do without drastically changing the future would be to sever his leg to match Moodies. And so, that's what he did. He doesn't forget to burn the severed foot to ash to remove any chance of the Auror's finding evidence that Barty Crouch Jr is still alive.
After throwing Moody into the forest and apologising to Harry for coming too late the rest of the Auror's arrive. Again, pointing their wands at him.
Reima "Looks like someone was screaming, lucky I heard them isn't it?" he asks pointing down at the two teenagers.
Amelia "Harry Potter! Merlin who did this!" she exclaims.
Reima points to the wand on the floor, "The man dropped that wand, maybe you should check it for spells?" An Auror nods and checks, speaking aloud his findings, "Last three spells are... Crucio, Crucio and.... Crucio." everyone except Ciri and Reima flinch at this finding.
Hopefully you guys enjoyed the World Cup mini-arc, a significant portion is different from Canon while also keeping the future relatively the same... Needless to say, Harry's going to have to work out those torture curses.
