Attack on the Manchester United Grounds

[lucius]

With a bang. Lucius Malfoy appeared in an alley by the Manchester United football grounds. A game was going on so Lucius' bang was nearly non-audible. Putting his hands in his pockets, he made his way to the entrance. It was halfway through the game, so Lucius was allowed in for free, or no one simply saw him. As it seemed, he was walking un detected. Lucius was glad he was finally out of Azkaban. He did nothing there. Sitting in silence was hard enough, now out doing what he believed was right was all he wanted to do. Tightening his grip on his wand in his pocket, Lucius trudged on to a crowded area.

Walking closer to the concession stand he finally took out his wand. "Incendio!" he shot as a red light shot from his wand and landed on the roof top of the concession. Repeating the spell twice more, he shot the quickly spreading flame through the whole building. A few people by Lucius began to scream, as they noticed he was the root for the fire. "Avada Kenavra!" He shot as a woman dropped to the ground emotionless. The game's score board froze, as all of the fans began running around in hysterics. "Incendio!" Lucius shot up into the stands as a fire began to grow there as well. Walking closer to the bleachers he shot another spell, "Destringo!" The arches under the bleachers which held all of the stands up began to give way and crumble to the ground.

Lucius watched as People ran around him, terrified for their life. He just stood and watched all of his destruction give way. A man from behind Lucius grabbed his cloak and pulled it off his head and started to choke him. "Crucio!" Lucius spit out between breaths as the man let go, abruptly and fell to his knees screaming in pain. His hands were clasped tightly on his head as she plead for his life. Turning and watching the man suffer, Lucius pulled his hood back over his head. He smiled as the man's screams stopped and his body layed limp on the pavement. Turning toward the crowd a few people watched in awe, as the hooded tyrant walked away undaunted.

[phaedra]

Phaedra was exited. There was no denying it. She was exited and just a bit nervous. She had naturally had the Auror training which also included instructions about how to behave aorund muggles. But she still had almost shamefully little practice around muggles. As if sensing her worry a friend by her side smiled to her. „Don’t woory, you look great. Just like a Man U fan should look like,“ Vanessa whispered to Phaedra, who smiled gratefully. Vanessa was a muggleborn herself so she knew what she was talking about. „It is just so over-whelming. How all of this could by put up wihtout help for ma... well, you know what I mean,“ Phaedra said back to her friend almost letting the word magic slipping and berating herself for it. She would have to be more watchful of her words. Loud burst of laughter form the rest of the young aurors Phaedra herslef had trained with averted Vanessas and Phaedra’s attention and the small group watched the game waving banners nad singing loudly if their team scored. It was really more fun that Phaedra had thought it would be.

And using ’was’ turned out to be the correct tense. The roofs burst up at flames and Phaedra sat frozen in her seat while screams burst out all around her. Fire, but how... how could fire spread so quickly? Phaedra’s sharp eyes scanned the crowd in worry as she by a stroke of luck saw the unmistakable line of a spell flying. Phaedra watched elplessly as the spell hit the high arches and they started to grumble. „I’ll notify the Ministry!“ came a shout from Phaedra’s right side and she rather felt than heard Spencer apparating away in the loud commotion. Phaedra herslef was alreayd on her feet the blanket on her knees previously already discarded as she rushed forward her wand drawn. „Flippendo! Wingardium Leviosa!“ The spells worked immidiately and Pahedra was relieved to see how a girl was gently floated away from under the falling rubble.

„Death Eaters!“ Vanessa grumbled and Phaedra risked a quick glance at Vanessa who was trying to control the fire with her wand next to her. Phaedra didn’t answer. What could she say but state the obvious again? The two women’s eyes met for one brief moment as Phaedra joined in to help preserve some order on the rudely ended game. While not helping but ownder... what would have happened if they hadn’t been here to help and interfere with the Death Eaters actions immidiately? Phaedra felt almost ashamed of paralyzing in her seat out of here at first. How could she have NOT taken action? Soon enough familiar pops were heard and Phaedra was glad to see the Ministry officials starting to take control of the situation as the fires were quickly put out and slowly order started to return as everyone hid their wands quickly. There would be enough memory charms to be used already on the numerous obserers who had came for the game.
