"Time to go," Gregory grunted to his two companions. He stood up, his chest puffed out slightly with the pride he felt at having been put in charge of two other Death Eaters, making him look even larger and imposing than he already did after the jolly good meal he'd just had. They didn't look all too happy, they probably thought they were better than him but he knew better. The Dark Lord wouldn't have put him in charge of them if he didn't think he was utterly capable of causing disruption and devastation. The other two, Antonin Dolohov and Mulciber, apparated first and Gregory went straight after them. They arrived just on the outskirts of Liverpool, near the University. Gregory turned around and pointed his wand at the Bailey bridge over the estuary of the River Mersey, which was busy with Muggle traffic.
"Incendio!" A huge ball of flame erupted from his wand and sped at a terrific pace towards the bridge, where it engulfed a whole group of cars and a lorry in flames, sending them crashing into each other as they exploded with an ear deafening boom. Gregory signalled to Dolohov and Mulciber to follow him as he set off at a very fast trot (for him) towards the main university building, all three of them sending disrupter spells as they went which shattered the glass of all the surrounding buildings, and killing any Muggles they saw in their sight. No need not to be brutal. They might merely be causing disruption to draw attention away from the main focus of the co-ordinated attacks but the more damage they caused, the more scared people would get. And the more scared people were, the less effective they were at combatting the thing they were scared of. Which could only be good.
They were soon into the main University building itself, sending the library up into smoke and causing disruption everywhere they went. Gregory removed the fingers of one Muggle who was particularly annoying him by keep on dodging his spells. The fun didn't last as long as he would have had it last though as Aurors finally started to Apparate into the building and all the remaining Muggles that had had the chance had scattered by now. That had been the idea anyway really, to draw the Aurors away from Azkaban. Sending a final disruptor spell around the University main Entrance Hall he was standing in, Gregory yelled to Dolohov and Muliber "Those are Aurors, get going," and without a further word, Disapparated back to their starting position where only a moment later he was joined by the two other Death Eaters. That had given him more satisfaction than he had witnessed for a while.
