[HP] Aunt of the Savior

After a day of bickering that neither could convince the other, the twins descended into a cold war.Throughout the summer vacation, the relationship between them failed to improve.However, they unanimously displayed their tacit understanding as twins, trying to be calm and nonchalant in front of their parents, and trying their best to maintain the usual harmonious atmosphere of the Potter family.

It's been difficult, but thankfully they seem to be doing pretty well.At least neither Mr. Potter nor Mrs. Potter noticed this. Jody, who was left alone in the room, and James, who was running around with Sirius, looked the same as they usually did.In fact, they haven't spoken to each other in private since that day.

Sirius has lived at Potter's house longer than any other year this time. He only used the Floo network to return home briefly, and then stayed at Potter's house until school started.

Before school started, the owl of Hogwarts sent them the bibliography of the new school year as scheduled, and there was one more thing in Jody's envelope: the badge of the Slytherin prefect.

James, who violated the rules of the school and "repeatedly" was not surprised that he and Sirius failed to become a prefect, but looking at the silver and green badge in Jody's hand, he still felt very uncomfortable.It's a terrible feeling to find that she fits into that path more successfully than he'd expected when he's all about pulling Jody back from the wrong path—even though he knows the prefect is It was appointed by the deans and headmasters of each house, not recommended by the group of Slytherins.

But the Potters were very happy that their daughter received such an honor. They even gave Jody an extra pocket money for her to buy things she liked, and mistaken James' listlessness for failing to become a prefect. disappointment.

"Hey, don't worry about it, James." Mr. Potter comforted his son with a smile: "I didn't become a prefect back then, but I became the chairman of the male student union in the end."

"If you abide by the school rules from now on, it's not impossible." Mrs. Potter said with a serious expression: "But if you are still like this, then don't envy your sister who can be a teacher in fifth grade." The boss is long-oh, I hope you can become the president of the female student body in the future, Jody..."

At the end, she couldn't help giving her daughter a passionate kiss.

"Oh, Aunt Secia, we just want to have a little fun out of the dull school life, don't we, James?" Sirius said before James in a very, very cheerful tone.

"Ah, yes." James scratched his hair and said with his most natural expression as much as possible: "Of course, we just like to joke with our classmates and have fun. Okay, I'm going to sleep. West Reese, let's go to Diagon Alley together tomorrow, I made an appointment with Remus and Peter to meet in Diagon Alley!"

"Oh, now the children don't need us to accompany them to Diagon Alley anymore!" Mr. Potter shrugged exaggeratedly and made a gesture of spreading his hands: "Honey, I'm so sad."

For Mr. Porter's "performance", everyone laughed appreciatively, and James ran back to his room while he could still maintain his smile.He thought he'd be mad if he heard from Jody herself that she would go to Diagon Alley with Snape.

The next day, James pulled Sirius and jumped into the fireplace very early.And once his bad mood left the Potter's house, it became even more obvious that James was in a bad mood even if he was as dull as Peter.

"So, Jody... she learned black magic?" Lupine showed a surprised expression after hearing the whole story. "My God, she actually..."

"She's still hanging out with that snot guy," James went on to complain. "That Snape we've hated since first year! My sister finally chose such a guy as her boyfriend."

"They, they are classmates after all." Lupine was not so surprised by this matter.For Lupine, who had long felt the tacit understanding and closeness between the two Slytherins, he even took this situation for granted, which made him envious. "But it's hard for me to imagine that all the Slytherins are really learning the Dark Arts?"

"As far as I know, they're proud of it—it seems like a small group," Sirius said gloomily.

Summer is obviously not a good season for walking and chatting on the street. Chatting in the scorching and scorching sunshine at the end of summer, the four of them soon felt their throats were hot and thirsty.

"We should have a refreshing drink or something..." Sirius fanned his face with his hands, but he still looked very handsome even if he did.

But seeing Sirius' action, James joked after a long absence, "Maybe you should just stick your tongue out, Padfoot."

Peter let out a low laugh, and Lupine's mouth curled up too.But he quickly frowned, "You don't think something is wrong in Diagon Alley today?"

He stopped and looked around: "It's...too quiet here today."

It stands to reason that they have walked from the small road connecting the public floo network to the main road of Diagon Alley, but so far they have not seen a wizard.The sun shines on Diagon Alley's cobblestone road polished smooth by people's soles, and Diagon Alley, which has always seemed crowded and narrow, unexpectedly looks so empty.

Perhaps because of his werewolf blood, Lupine always had a special intuition about the surrounding environment, but this time, this intuition helped them a lot, and they stopped when they just entered Diagon Alley.

Immediately afterwards, before they could react, this silence was quickly broken, as if the silence just now was just a preparation for this momentary explosion.

The crackling sound of spells and spells colliding suddenly came densely from Diagon Alley ahead.There were screams of women and children, and wild, piercing laughter.These voices were getting closer and closer to them, and even a magic spell flew towards them from nowhere.

"Be careful!" James, who reacted the fastest, immediately grabbed Peter beside him.The light of the curse passed by his arm in a thrilling manner.

"Thank you, thank you." Peter turned pale with fright.

But things didn't stop there, and they soon saw what kind of people were causing the commotion: they were all wearing identical black robes, with silver masks on their faces, and their arms holding wands were raised high. From now on, ready to launch the spell anytime, anywhere.

There were people—men, women, and children—tied up in pitiful and ridiculous bundles of unseen ropes, and men in black robes directed them around with wands like conductors. , let out a sharp and piercing laugh.

The people who were not restrained ran around in panic, and some shops seemed to be planning to open their doors to take in some fugitives, but once this behavior was discovered, those people would immediately point their wands at that shop first, and then there was an astonishing explosion The sound and the roaring flames.

There were also some people who bravely resisted, and they cast spells at these men in black, but that didn't seem to have the slightest effect.The masked people in black continued their atrocities triumphantly and proudly against the attacking spells, without even slowing down their pace, which undoubtedly made the already terrified people even more panicked.In the end, more and more people gave up resistance and joined the crowd of people who fled and evaded in panic.

Although it was still midsummer, the hell-like scene in front of them seemed to make everyone feel that their bodies had lost their temperature and could not feel a trace of warmth.

Those black-clothed demons seem to be enjoying the terrified screams and cries of the people around them, treating everything as a symphony at a feast, laughing happily, and even humming, their steps are brisk as if they are Dancing - of course they haven't forgotten their game of "throw the ball".

"These lunatics!" Sirius cursed, "These lunatics!"

The stunned teenagers unanimously pulled out their wands angrily.A feeling of having to do something kept swelling in their chests, but just before they wanted to rush out to protect those who were being attacked, a powerful big hand pressed James' shoulder, who wanted to rush out the most.

"go home!"

"Dad?" James was surprised to find that his father would appear here, but he immediately retorted: "No, Dad, I know that under special circumstances, underage wizards can also perform magic..."

"James Potter, go home!" yelled Mr. Potter in a voice his son had never heard with a commanding grimness.

James didn't even notice that his father had blocked an attacking spell for them the very moment he appeared.They have long gone from bystanders to one of the prey hunted by the devil.

Elvis Potter had never been more grateful that he had arrived in time.Had it been any later, he wasn't sure what would have happened to his son or one of his friends.

But obviously for these lunatics, their feast is coming to an end.One of them threw the "human ball" mercilessly in the corner, while the other pointed to the sky and screamed a spell. "The corpse reappears!"

"Look, let all wizards remember this symbol! The Dark Mark!"

Immediately afterwards, these guys laughed wildly and Apparated away one by one.At this moment, the last wizard wearing a hood suddenly looked in James' direction maliciously, and then uttered a spell that James had never heard before.

"Damn it!" Mr. Potter cursed, shielding James and his friends behind him, also cast a defensive spell that James had never heard of, and pointed at the hooded figure with his wand: "Damned!"

It's a pity that that figure, like his companion, disappeared before being hit by the spell.

Diagon Alley was completely quiet again. Those strange guys with silver masks and hoods left a mess, except for the black skull in the air that spit out a snake from its mouth.

—and the great shock and fear left upon all the wizards present.
