*Thud*

Lucius fell to his knees, trying hard to get support from Magnus's body. His face had gone pale as he saw blood gushing out of his wounds. At that moment, he cried, "W-why... why can't I ever win... I w-was so... strong..."

"You can not win because you're blind. You refused to see what was in front of you and instead chased after false vengeance. I did not kill your father, he died on his own inside the Gringotts, trying to forcefully enter my vault. I did not make you an enemy, you did.

"Honestly, if you were not so mad about Voldemort, I could have used your talent and prestige. But you forced me to destroy the Malfoy family name. Nobody but you're to blame. As for this fight, I am simply too strong. Tell me, if Voldemort was to now come out and call for wizards to join him, how many will? None. But if I did the same, the entire Wizarding world would stand behind me. The fight you and your master have been fighting was never ever worth mentioning in my eyes. I was just too busy with other things this whole time.

"Now, die here. Think about all you did. Think about how a muggle weapon killed you. That's your curse." Magnus yanked his leg, throwing Lucius away to the ground. He was like a lifeless doll, but life was not all gone yet. It was only slowly leaving the body.

He coughed in his own puddle of blood, slowly his eyelids became heavier. Various what-if scenarios ran in his mind, his childhood, his days of pure happiness reappeared in his mind. He lowly breathed out, "I... I w-was so happy... mother."

A few minutes later, his heart also stopped beating. Magnus looked around himself, the big explosion was real and had destroyed the area. He waved his wand and fixed the road at least so the traffic could later move. For the buildings, they would have to be fixed conventionally.

For Lucius, this was not the end yet. He picked the body and apparate away straight inside the Ministry of Magic. His destination was the Brain Room of the Department of Mysteries.

"Hook him up with the machine and search for words such as Horcrux and Voldemort." He ordered the Unspeakables to get to work.

They quickly brought the body of Lucius to the large brain tanker machine and pulled a few nodes out of it. Then attached to the head of the body. Another wire was connected to the spine.

After that, they started to play with some sort of runes. They obviously needed something like a computer because right now they have no interface to control the device.

They commanded the brain-machine to search Lucius' mind for Horcrux first. Soon, the machine started speaking, this was something new. "Diary at Malfoy Manor... Gaunt's Ring."

"Can you see where the ring is?" Magnus asked.

"This is all information we could find about Horcrux, your majesty." the Unspeakable said.

"Fine, look for the recent mention of Voldemort, such as what his next plans are," he commanded.

The two men started to change the rune setting on the machine to give it parameters that it should search about. Magnus could have read the whole mind with Legilimency but he didn't want to see all the messed up things Lucius had done. Such things had an effect on his mental well being as well. Why else would Dumbledore become so crazy about this ability? It was because of overusing it.

"Prophecy, Sybill Trelawney... child... death." The machine revealed.

"Who the hell is Sybill Trelawney? Prophecy?" Magnus rubbed his chin and thought about it. The name must be of the one who divined. Maybe Voldemort had a Divinator.

"Can you get the prophecy from it? Lucius must have heard it, he was the heir of Voldemort after all," he asked.

The two men started working, "Give us time, sir. It's a long prophecy," one of them said.

He nodded and took a seat, taking out his phone he called Rita, "Yes, publish the news, Lucius Malfoy attacked King Pendragon. It ended with Lucius' demise."

Then he called Dumbledore, "Come to the Department of Mysteries, found the location of the other ones,"

"SIR! Here's the prophecy," Unspeakable notified.

"The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord approaches... born to those who have thrice defied him, born as the seventh month dies... and the Dark Lord will mark him as his equal, but he will have power the Dark Lord knows not... and either must die at the hand of the other for neither can live while the other survives... the one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord will be born as the seventh month dies... and... WAIT! NO! THIS CAN'T BE!..."

Magnus was all question mark, "Play more, what happened after that? This isn't a Hollywood drama,"

"Sir, this is it. The prophecy ended at that." The Unspeakables apologised.

*Sigh* "Fine, I will have to find this Sybill Trelawney. Destroy Lucius' body." He ordered and walked out. As he left, the Unspeakables simply set the body on fire.

...

Dumbledore had just arrived, Magnus named him the two Horcruxes, "Gaunt's ring and Riddle's diary. What can you tell me about these two?"

Dumbledore could already guess what these two objects implied, "I do not know about the diary, but the ring should have something to do with the Gaunt family. They have only one place under their name, it's an old shack."

"Then, hurry up. Go to the Gaunt's shack and get the ring, I will get the diary. These two are possibly the last Horcruxes. Once we have these, we shall attack Voldemort. One more thing, there is something about a prophecy made by Sybill Trelawney." He warned the old man.

"Sybill Trelawney? She wanted to become our divination teacher once, but I refused as we already had the Centaurs for that. Her whereabouts will not be easy to find, but I shall try. I will meet you in Hogwarts in an hour," he apparated away.

Magnus too left, and his destination was Malfoy manor that was empty and under the bank's possession.

...

MEDA Headquarters,

"Your Majesty?" Adrian picked up the phone.

"Yes, understood. I will initiate it." He ended the call and quickly walked to the right wall of his office. He tapped his wand on it, making the bricks move aside and revealing a panel of colourful buttons. He started typing on them, then, at last, hit the big green button.

Immediately, alerts sounded in all Companies of Magnus, the Golden Company, the Army of Merlin, MI5, Army, Navy, Airforce and all security agencies that had wizards available got alerted.

Magnus had initiated the highest level of battle preparedness, and if any Death Eater is seen in any location, he's to be immediately killed. If there is Voldemort, he is to be called to deal with him.

The entire United Kingdom became a fortress in a few hours.

...

Magnus arrived at the Malfoy Manor, it was in decay, the wood having been damaged by the termites. The floor creaked with each step as if it would break.

He didn't want to waste too much time on this, "Accio, Horcrux,"

*BAM*

As he expected, it was locked in some kind of a case. He went to the basement and found a safety locker. Spending no time wasting, "Confringo," a blasting curse was enough to destroy it.

From it appeared an old and thin diary, "Why did he make such a weak thing his Horcrux? It seems Voldemort always had a pretty autistic brain."

He didn't touch it, instead put it in a bag and went straight to Hogwarts to meet Dumbledore. As soon as he has all the Horcruxes, he will destroy them.

~Sigh~ "I should have been at home tonight, the little ones must be waiting to go trick or treating," he sighed, looking at the moon in the sky. It was Halloween today.

But he didn't know that the night was going to be long, as the day of judgement had finally arrived. He had left Voldemort with no option but to confront him.
