So You're A Vampire

If It's Tuesday It Must Be Hogwarts

The Dark Lord turns to face the arriving Aurors. Soon they get close to him, "I wouldn't go near Harry or Severus. Harry is still a bit touchy about being attacked again."

"Can you please explain what happened?" The Auror responds and the Dark Lord tries not to smirk as he knows this is one of his followers, he can't remember the complete name, he just knows it's Maxwell.

"Yes, Auror Maxwell, we were heading to the first session of classes and noticed Auror Jones and the other woman arriving with Lord Doge, Mr. Diggle and Aberforth Dumbledore. When they saw us, Jones and the other woman started firing spells. Nothing was coming close to us, so we stayed inside Hogwarts. However, one of Auror Jones' spell finally hit Harry and he defended himself and the rest of Hogwarts by engaging Jones and the other woman, who kept firing spells at him. While he was engaging them, the three men started to retreat."

"We can get your memories?"

"Yes, of course." The Dark Lord let Maxwell cast the spell and provided the memories. They see Poppy examine the corpses and with an Auror, a death certificate will be issued later with her official cause of death. He wonders if she will put "death by stupidity" as the official reason.

Auror Maxwell, inclined his head. "Can we talk to either of them?" He asked quietly. He doesn't want to get to close to the Potter or Snape, he remembered Potter before he was turned into a living vampire.

"You can try to talk to Severus but I wouldn't get to close, right here would be good." The Dark Lord tells him, pointing to an area near him.

Auror Maxwell repeats the same questions, "memories?"

"I can do it if that is alright?" The Dark Lord asks.

"It will be fine." Maxwell tells him and he watches the Dark Lord collect Snape and Potter's memories, who is growling low at the idea.

"You know they need them, and he isn't coming near me." He hears Snape respond back.

When the Dark Lord hands him the vials he asks "he can understand him?"

"Yes, if he didn't, I am sure we would have a few more bodies here today or even before today. Harry doesn't like it when his primary is in danger." The Dark Lord tells him. He notices Rookwood has arrived. Auror Maxwell heads towards Hogwarts seeing Rookwood. "Rook, what is going on?"

"Doge, Diggle and Aberforth showed up at the Ministry, ranting about how crazy Harry was, to bad for them, a small group of your followers already provided details of what happened. They were delayed healing Doge and Diggle, which allowed our people to get everything set up. The session had just started when they arrived, so no one knew of the events, only Lucius, Fudge, Rosely and Bones. They let them rant on for a while and Lucius calmly asks for their memories." He pauses and grins "Albus Dumbledore begins to have a small fit, demanding that something must be done to control Harry, about how dangerous he is, how out of control he is. Madam Bones turns to him and goes "Mr. Dumbledore, if someone was hit with a spell as they were standing still, inside a building, just watching a group running towards them and they finally responded what would you call it?" Someone, I think Lucius, cast a Silencio on Doge, Diggle and Aberforth because so that they couldn't warn the old fart he was being set up, and he answers "self defense, of course." Fudge stands up next and goes "arrest Elphias Doge, Dedalus Diggle and Aberforth Dumbledore." I can't wait to show you the memory of his face."

"I am sure Lucius will also want to show us also. Who showed up at the Ministry?"

"Best part, it was Hopkins, Anderson and Hendricks. Dumbles couldn't claim afterwards that they were your followers because they are unmarked and all three are Aurors."
