As soon as he blasted through the door, he saw the situation. There were four Death Eaters, two of them being pretty famous. There were three victims, Frank and Alice Longbottom, and the old Agusta Longbottom. The two women were being dragged by the hair by the male Death Eaters. Their faces had many bruises as they cried in pain. Meanwhile, Frank was tied to the side, being continuously forced to see his mother and wife tortured, at the same time Bellatrix sent Crucio curses to them all.
These Curses may not be much for Magnus, but for an ordinary wizard, these were mind breaking. They put a person in so much pain that their bodies would give up. They were trying to make the three tell where they had hidden the baby.
The moment they saw Magnus, instead of acting strong and proud, fear shined in their eyes. This was the image of Magnus in their minds, the man whom even Voldemort could not defeat.
But Magnus was particularly angered by one person and it was not Bellatrix. He didn't hold back any power tonight. It was time for the world to see his ultimate strength, make all wizards understand that there was only one way to live, and it was by not being an asshole.
He tapped his staff on the floor, sending out a strong vibration through the ground. Immediately, one of the Death Eaters felt his feet slump into the floor as if it was quicksand.
"Bartemius Crouch Jnr. You just completed school last year and have already joined the devil. I thought I had given you a clear message. Yet, here you are. Hurting innocents. Oh, I will give you the same treatment as Rodolphus," He scolded.
Hearing this name, Bellatrix was alerted, she nearly jumped on Magnus. But he froze her in midair, "Calm down, Witch, I will get to you later,"
"What did you do to Rodolphus? Where is Rodolphus? TELL ME!" she screeched.
*BONK* He slammed his staff on her head, "Don't act as if you loved him. He told me how Voldemort uses you as his disposable whore. Poor man, Rodolphus, couldn't even get the love of the woman he married."
"Anyway, who are you two? Never seen you before." He asked the other two Death Eaters.
They were new faces. Magnus knew all of them as he had issued various wanted posters. The two men tried to run away, Magnus even let them escape. But the area had anti-apparition wards so they couldn't do much other than run like muggles.
"You gonna let them go?" Severus asked.
He smiled, "Not really, it's coming."
He walked out of the main door and looked at the sky. Two shiny dots were getting bigger and bigger until the sound of air being cut came. *BAM* *BAM*
Two distinct noises, two giant 5-meter long spears of steel fell from the sky straight on top of the two Death Eaters. They impaled their bodies and planted them into the ground. It was instant death.
"I upgraded the defence of my big home. Now they throw steel instead of stone. I call it Steel Rain," he told Severus.
He returned inside to check on the family. Severus quickly gave them healing potions to feel better. Then he focused on the two, "You know what, I changed my mind. I don't have time to torture you two. I also want to end this whole Voldemort chapter from this world. So, death it is. Sev, give it to me,"
Severus handed over two vials that had some black thick liquid in them. Magnus first walked to Crouch Jr. and forced his mouth open to pour the contents, "This is what I call the Essence of Death. The name is given because it makes you want to die while being alive. What does it do? Well, it simply first absorbs all water from your body, fails all your organs and then starts melting them, but remember, heart and brain go the last. So, for the next two hours, you two are going to be in pure agony."
Barty Crouch Jr. soon started screaming, Magnus cast a silencing charm on him. He walked to Bellatrix, "You probably thought this day was going to be a good one. What a waste you are, nearly everyone from your family turned out decent except you. I do not care what made you like this as you have caused too much harm. To let you go is disrespectful to all you have wronged. So, open your mouth and say ha ha ha..."
He poured the potions in her mouth. She gulped it and did laugh in madness, "Hehe, enjoy while you can, mudblood. My great lord will soon be drinking your blood."
He chuckled, "Hah, won't that make him mudblood too? Speechless? Pfft... you just proved my hypothesis, you guys seriously have some mental defect. Anyway, peace out. I need to head to the next house. Sev, you stay here for some time, once the Longbottoms are well, come to Potter's."
He apparated away from there to Godric Hollows village.
...
Potter's home.
The family had welcomed their son, Harry Potter, a year ago. This was the greatest joyous time of their lives as the house was filled with giggles of the boy and of course, the smell of poop and baby products.
But thanks to being a wizard, some things were tolerable. Like they could just change the diapers with magic. Or clean the odour in the house with a wave of a wand.
The two lovers had no idea that a prophecy was made about them. However, just then a Patronus charm appeared in their house, it was Severus' voice that gave the message, "Lord Voldemort may be after your son, quickly head to Buckingham Palace,"
*BANG*
But before they could even digest the information, they heard the sound from the ground floor, and the door was blasted open. James knew who it was, "Hide Harry and stay here,"
"DON'T GO! We can apparate away!" Lily stopped him.
"Already tried, they have blocked the space. Pick Harry and leave on a broom, GO!" he shouted at her and left the room. His father's instincts kicked in, wanting to protect his wife and son was the only thing on his mind.
He confronted Voldemort on the stairs, "Stop there, you ugly beast."
Voldemort didn't even look like his normal self at this moment, he had gone crazy after finding all his followers dead in Azkaban and then all his resources and money were taken away by Magnus.
"Move, blood traitor. I will end your family after this," Voldemort growled, directly throwing killing curses without speaking.
James was trained by Magnus for a while in Duelling, so he knew how to stop this. He hovered over a toy of Harry and stopped the curse. This made Voldemort even more enraged as he recognised the move, "That mudblood taught you this? That alone invites your death."
Like a machine gun, he started throwing curses at James one after another, all being Killing Curses. Soon, James ran out of things to stop the curse and one finally flew to him. He knew he had to give time to Lily to get away, so he just jumped over Voldemort.
Mid-air, the curse hit him, his body immediately losing life but at the same time falling on Voldemort, pushing him back on the staircase.
Back in the room, Lily noticed the sudden silence, her heart shrank, if James had won he would have called her out. "Harry, let's go."
"Not so fast,"
As soon as she opened the window, a Death Eater flew in, blocking her path. She tried to take out her wand while holding Harry in her other arm. But she was too late, it was taken from her.
*Woosh*
Two more Death Eaters entered, surrounding her. And then Voldemort walked in, wearing a hooded robe, his eyes shining red. "Your husband is dead. If you give me the boy, I will spare your life, mudblood."
Lily stepped back, but bumped onto a Death Eater. She looked at Harry's face, the boy was about to cry. "Shh... mummy will save you, sweety. Don't worry... don't cry... please" But the matter was, she herself was crying. The fact James was dead had hit her mind and it made her feel utterly hopeless.
"Hahaha... my lord, she still dreams." The Death Eater laughed.
"So be it, I shall kill both of you together, AVADA KEDAVRA!" Voldemort being impatient, sent a bolt of green light, the Killing Curse.
Lily closed her eyes, shielding her son from it. "I'm sorry, Harry," she whispered in terror.
