OFFICIAL STATEMENT FROM THE MINISTER FOR MAGIC
âThe explosion at the Ministry and Gringotts rocked the entire magical community, and a time has marched on as clean up efforts have begun. While some are grieving and mourning their losses, others are throwing themselves into the efforts to clear and rebuild. For any Ministry officials working, temporary offices have been set up, and any requests for further accommodations can be placed with the Ministers directly line of communication for consideration.
While the explosion is still under investigation, Ministry officials are working tirelessly to find and provide every answer they can. No further statements will be made at this time, and we appreciate your cooperation. We would also like to thank our brave Aurors, Healers, and civilians alike who aided in the aftermath of the tragedy. They are truly heroes.â
OOC INFO:
The Ministry exploded in early August. As many threads are currently post explosion, the current date in game is late August. Please time your threads accordingly.
You are free to continue all threads set during the explosion, but ask that any starters you write moving forward are post explosion.
There will be a memorial event held for the injured, lives lost, and the brave souls who helped with the destruction. More details in the discord server.
a/n : "the incantation comes from latin 'protego', 'i protect', and 'diabolica', a declension of 'diabolicus', meaning 'diabolic, relating to the devil'. it is unclear if the translation is meant to suggest 'protection from the devil' or 'the devil protects.'..."
âJungkook, will you stop eating all the cookies please--â
âHow come Jin gets to eat everything in sight, but I canât--â
âBecause Jin is an insatiable mountain troll with no human manners and six stomachs--â
âAw, Yoongi, youâre so loving with your words!â
âShut up, Jin.â
âKim Seokjin, stop eating the fucking food!â Jimin watches with thinly veiled exasperation as chaos unfolds in Yoongi and Hoseokâs countryside cottage. Theyâd arrived a few days prior, spending the week together before dispersing for Christmas Day, just in time for the full moon. It had been a chaotic week at best -- verbal altercations were had over stupid things like gift-wrapping techniques, and several small fires had already occurred in the kitchen, mostly due to Taehyungâs ice cream maker.
But somehow, theyâd made it to Christmas Eve. And, so far, this Christmas Eve had been spent watching Jin eat all the food as itâs being made and consequently be kicked out of the kitchen entirely by Hoseok. Jiminâs seated in the living room with a perfect view of the chaos happening at the dining table. Y/nâs next to him, reading quietly with her head on Jiminâs shoulder. Sheâs especially tired today, the full moon just over 24 hours away, so Jiminâs staying close to her.
Namjoon and Taehyung are seated in front of the fireplace, engaged in an intense game of wizardâs chess. Namjoon is beating Taehyung by a landslide, but Taehyung just will not give up, something that makes Jimin smile fondly.
Thereâs a bang from the kitchen, catching everyoneâs attention. Hoseok turns slowly from where he stands at the oven, smiling sheepishly at them.
âI may have put the pie in for too long.â The room is a collection of groans and exasperated laughter, Jinâs complaints overpowering the rest.
âHow the fuck do you make a pie explode?! Itâs a pie!â Hoseok looks to Yoongi for help, but the boy only shrugs.
âThe manâs right, babe -- pieâs not that hard.â Hoseok lets out an affronted scoff, moving to open the window over the sink to let some of the smoke from the oven out. Jimin feels Y/n snicker softly beside him, and when he looks down at her, sheâs peering over the top of her book at the scene in the kitchen. She looks so peaceful and happy, even with eyes full of exhaustion. He adores her entirely, and he knows itâs obvious to everyone but her.
Her eyes flick up to meet his then, and, over the cries of outrage from the kitchen about not having dessert, he hears her whisper to him.
âWhy are you looking at me like that?â Jimin purses his lips, smothering the smile thatâs rising to the surface. He only shakes his head, his expression judgmental.
âNot everythingâs about you, Y/n, geez.â He laughs when she gives him a hard nudge with her elbow, and he moves to wrap his arms around her and trap her in his hold. She lets it happen, only grumbling noncommittally about being unable to read like this. He presses his lips to her temple stubbornly in response. âYou have a lifetime to read -- let me hug you.â
âAlright, it looks like weâre having deconstructed pie for dessert, so everyone come eat!â Apparently, the argument about the oven disaster has ended, as Hoseokâs setting a pie on the table, a giant hole in the middle where it had imploded. Taehyung jumps up from his tragedy of a chess game and runs for the kitchen, socked feet sliding to a stop in front of the refrigerator. Plucking a big bowl of homemade ice cream -- its flavor to be determined -- from inside, he makes his way to the table and spoons a giant scoop into the pieâs battle wound. He gestures dramatically at it when heâs done.
âProblem solved!â Hoseok mimics him, gesturing just as dramatically at his disappointed boyfriend.
âThe manâs right, babe -- problem solved!â The group laughs, everyone slowly making their way to the table to eat. Y/n sets her book on the couch, moving to stand, but Jimin stops her. From within his pocket he pulls a vial and shakes it, eyeing her knowingly when she groans.
âTen seconds of pain, and then you can drown the taste out with some ambiguously flavored ice cream. If it makes tomorrow night more bearable for you, then ten seconds is nothing.â She smiles, taking the vial and uncorking it.
âDid you just admit to being someone who eats dessert before dinner?â She downs the potion in one go, eyes squeezed shut. She doesnât see Jimin gazing at her lovingly, only to lower his eyes when sheâs done. She hands him the vial and takes his hand, pulling him to his feet and toward the table.
âYou promised me only ten seconds of pain before ice cream, so move faster, Park Jimin.â They take their seats in the chairs nearest them, Jungkook setting his plate down on Y/nâs other side and moving to join them. Tae, Yoongi, and Hoseok sit across from them, Jin and Namjoon taking the end seats. Namjoon leaves his seat after a moment, moving to pass out silverware and swap the ladle in Jinâs hand for a normal spoon. Jin refuses to give up his spoon of choice, glaring at the boy standing over him.
âDude, I will fight you on Christmas Eve -- I have no qualms about fucking up the holiday spirit or whatever--â
âStop.â It comes from Jungkook, spoken with a quiet urgency that halts all activity in the room. Heâs standing just behind the seat heâd been about to take, his hand resting on the back of the chair. He ignores their questioning glances, his eyes locked on nothing in particular as he focuses his hearing on the open window. When he finds what heâs looking for, he meets Yoongiâs eyes, alarmed.
âI thought you said you put a barrier around your house.â Yoongi and Hoseok glance at one another, shaking their heads simultaneously as Yoongi looks back to the Gryffindor.
âWe never got around to itâŚâ But Jungkookâs stopped listening. And, for all the years of jokes, remarks, and complaints Jung Hoseok had ever made about the boyâs heightened senses, he can say with complete confidence later that Jeon Jungkook is the only reason heâs still alive. Because the only person in the room thatâs ready for the unforgivable curse thatâs shot though the open window, aimed squarely at Hoseokâs chest, is the boy whoâd heard the call for death fall from its casterâs lips.
Suddenly, Jungkookâs across the room, launching his body at Hoseokâs over the dinner table and twisting in mid-air to throw his hand out toward the window. Heâd never in his life attempted nonverbal magic -- not necessarily the most advanced of students -- but itâs said that wizards can create even miracles if theyâre desperate enough. And this is nothing like the World Cup, when Hoseok had protected him from a nasty stunning curse -- the beam of light headed Jungkookâs way right now, in this moment of literal life and death, has been shot to kill. So desperation is exactly what produces the shield charm that emits from his entire body, exploding outwards and shattering all the windows in the house as it goes. The force of it blows them all back, throwing them to the floor and against walls with cries of shock.
And, while a shield is normally null against a curse so powerful, it seems Jungkookâs done more than just perform nonverbal magic for the first time. Heâs produced a physical barrier -- an invisible pane of pure energy separating his enemies from his family. It takes out half of the kitchen as it goes, destroying the far wall completely and opening the house out to the cold night around them.
In the confusion of chaos and rubble, Y/n lifts her head from the kitchen floor, catching a glimpse of the group of people outside the house, all equally disarmed from the display of sheer strength theyâd just witnessed. She counts 6 bodies, all donned in dark robes, and she knows immediately that this is a Death Eater attack.
Groaning, she drags herself to her feet, grabbing anyone she can get her hands on and pulling them with her, staying low to the ground. Jiminâs the first to follow, holding onto Y/n for dear life, but he canât help the way he hesitates when he looks past the overturned dining table, the wood splintered and cracked amidst all the wasted food.
Because there in front of him, right where the initial wave of power had surged out from and disoriented them all, is something that is very much not human. When it rises to its feet, it stands to full height, and Jimin knows that itâs easily as tall as he is. Black fur as far as the eye can see, the end of its ears and tail painted grey -- its body practically ripples with strength as it moves, and itâs from behind a set of sharpened teeth and a massive jaw, so powerful it could probably break Jimin clean in half, that a low growl starts to rumble.
It becomes a terrifying snarl in a matter of seconds, those piercing teeth shining in the moonlight with deadly intent. Jimin can feel that heâs still moving -- that all of this is happening in slow motion as he runs for safety and that no time at all has actually passed -- but he feels his whole world stop, drowned out by the sound of his heart pounding in his ears, when the beast shifts. Preparing to attack, it turns its head at the last moment to meet his eyes, and Jimin sees then that he knows these eyes. He knows the way they look him over with guarded concern and the way they turn away from him as soon as they know heâs unharmed, silently telling him to find his own way out -- after all, Jeon Jungkookâs always made it clear he has better things to do than look after Park Jimin.
Jungkook presses all his weight into his back legs, crouching low for a moment so suspended in time that Jimin doesnât even see him leave. But then heâs gone, wind rushing past Jiminâs face and blowing debris everywhere as the wolf takes off. After another hard tug from Y/n that pulls Jiminâs focus back to the matter at hand, he only hears when Jungkook finds his first target, the ripping of cloth and the hellish cry of pain ringing in Jiminâs ears like a nightmare.
Tripping over pieces of the ceiling and walls -- the back half of the house essentially crumbling in on itself -- Jimin finds the faces of each of his friends. Theyâre all there with the exception of Jungkook, who seems almost feral, if the shrieks of death behind them are anything to go by. The group stumbles from the side of the house through a door thatâs comically useless at this point, and when they circle around to the back, it becomes clear that there are far more than 6 Death Eaters.
The group that had led the attack has all but been taken out now, Jungkook nowhere to be seen -- but heâs certainly left evidence of his presence there. Jimin canât tell if these people are dead or still dying, but he doesnât have time to sort through the discarded bodies to check. Behind the cottage is a field of tall wheat that's surrounded by forest-- a massive expanse of land -- and when they look into this field to the top of a hill not too far away, thereâs another wave of Death Eaters lined up, these faces rather familiar to just two of his friends. Jimin hears swearing behind him, and then Hoseokâs pushing past him roughly, only stopped by Namjoonâs hand clamping down around his wrist.
âDonât, Hoseok! We canât do this -- thereâs too many of them. We have to run--â
âThey just tried to kill me, Namjoon! In my own home!â Hoseok whirls around and gets in his face, eyes wild. Jin tenses next to Y/n, one of his hands hovering over his pocket where his wand is. When she follows his eyes, she sees that the line of Death Eaters has started to approach.
They move slowly, as if they have all the time in the world. As if they have nothing to fear, organized and protected against this mismatched group of ambushed friends. She watches as they approach like predators waiting for the kill, and she knows that this is no simple Death Eater attack -- itâs a massacre.
And then, just as silently as heâd disappeared, Jungkookâs returned. Their attackers are given no warning, only registering that the wheat around them is rustling when one of them is violently pulled down into it. Heâs gone in an instant, his screams echoing in the night as heâs dragged through the dirt toward the house.
The moment Jungkook emerges at the edge of the field, the Death Eater is flying through the air and crashing into the remains of the house, slung from Jungkookâs jaws like nothing more than a ragdoll. He lands not a few feet away from them, and Yoongiâs jaw clenches when he recognizes the bloodied face of a fellow Slytherin. Turning to lock his gaze onto the line of his old classmates, he pushes past the group and summons his wand from within the rubble of his home with nothing more than the flick of his wrist. It flies from deep within the ruins into its masterâs hand with ease, and Yoongi spins it between his fingers casually once he has it.
âI really hope you guys all know how to cast shields as powerful as Jungkookâs -- otherwise, weâre fucked.â The wolf in question falls into line with Yoongi, his whole body shaking from the warning growl forming deep within his chest. The rest of the group follows, facing their enemies head-on.
From Jungkookâs other side, he feels a warm hand press into the top of his head, and he knows it instinctively. He can also feel the cold length of a wand, hidden easily in the darkness of his fur and beneath her flattened hand. Y/n keeps him there for only a moment -- knowing they only have a moment -- and presses her fingertips against his skull as if to hold him back. As if to stall him just long enough to tell him to be careful. And then the moment is gone and sheâs wrapping her fingers neatly around her wand, releasing him with a whisper.
âGo.â
--
None of them can say how long theyâve been there -- every second that passes is another that they could lose their lives, so it feels like theyâre there a lifetime. Theyâve huddled into a small circle, surrounded completely. Jungkook is mobile, weaving in and out of their enemies at too fast a speed to ever be hit by a curse. Heâs taking them out slowly, dragging them back into the darkness one by one while the rest work just to stay alive. Unlike at the World Cup, where every enemy shot fired was red, these beams of lights are all hauntingly green, glowing in the night sky -- a sign that things are different now, death standing only a few feet away in the form of old friends.
Every killing curse fired is met with an equally powerful shield, a wall that shatters the moment it meets its mark. Theyâre cancelling each other out, evenly matched in a battle that wonât end until someone gets tired -- until someone makes a mistake. The only sounds come from incantations, spoken by those of their group that cannot cast silently.
Hoseok and Yoongi fight much like their opponents, masks of guarded silence -- a reminder that while theyâre on opposite sides of the war, they were once very much the same. The difference, of course, is that their old housemates are now murderers without remorse. But thatâs not their only problem.
Y/n suddenly stumbles next to Jimin, and he canât even tear his eyes away from the Death Eater before him to check on her. He can only reach for her with his free hand, gripping her wrist in panic, which she rips from his hold with a groan. She only barely manages to raise her wand in time to block the killing curse headed right for her head. The force of her shield colliding with the curse so close to her knocks her back, and she falls into the circle with gritted teeth.
Jimin steps in front of her, closing the gap in their circle and allowing her a moment to recover inside their circle. But she never returns to her spot, only curling in on herself and gripping at her head with a cry of pain -- she knows this feeling. The feeling of her skull splitting, her body rejecting itself as it turns into something unnatural -- something unhuman.
But this canât be happening. The full moon is not tonight, something she confirms simply by rolling over in the dirt and looking up at the sky, in excruciating pain. She can see clearly that this cannot be her reality, yet the popping of her spine as it dislocates itself is very much real. Reaching out blindly, she latches on to the first person she can find, her hand clamping down around Hoseokâs ankle and squeezing with all her might. He hisses above her and manages to glance down long enough to see an expression of pain heâd long become accustomed to.
âWhat the fuck?!â Itâs the first time heâs spoken in ages, his attention back on his opponent as he works out in his mind how this is possible. Thereâs no time to reason through what he knows, however, because Y/nâs teeth are clenching so hard sheâs afraid they might crack, her grip on his ankle tightening painfully. Hoseok makes a snap decision then, calling out into the night.
âJimin, listen to me.â The boyâs on his left, so focused on the shield heâs casting that he responds only once heâs successfully blocked the deadly beam of green light.
âWhat is it, Hoseok--â
âYou have to take her into the forest. Now.â His instructions are muffled by the sounds of a curse crashing into Namjoonâs shield, unheard by their enemies, but Jimin hears him clearly. He also hears the urgency in Hoseokâs voice, telling him thereâs no time for questions. âIt has to be you, Jimin.â
He knows then what Hoseokâs saying, what he hasnât had the chance to confirm himself. Y/nâs transforming on a night other than the full moon, and theyâre out of time. He calls for Y/n then, reaching back for her.
âY/n -- baby, listen to me. We gotta go.â Thereâs a moment of nothingness, only her groans of pain, but then he feels her hand slamming down into his and gripping hard. And then his body is working faster than his brain.
Stepping forward out of the circle and straight for the man thatâs been trying to end his life all night, Jimin swings his arm out, bringing a new shield up with him as he goes. It hits the Death Eater from the side, catapulting him through the air. Just as heâs in the downward arc of his fall, heâs caught suddenly, torso trapped in Jungkookâs jaws as the wolf leaps into the air to capture his next target. They crash to the ground not far away, hidden away in the wheat.
Jimin pulls Y/n to her feet, pointing his wand out into the field as he runs for the treeline.
âFumos!â The effect is immediate, smoke pouring out of his wand and swirling around him in a dense fog. It keeps them hidden as they make a beeline for the trees, allowing them safe passage. Jimin chances a look over his shoulder and sees that the smoke hasnât passed over his circle of friends, ensuring that theyâll still be able to see clearly and protect themselves.
Y/n stumbles again as they run, but Jiminâs hold on her keeps her going, and she registers that heâll be there for her transformation. Panic seeps in through the pain, and she calls out desperately for him to stop, her vision leaving her. Jimin can feel her struggling against him, but he tightens his grip and forces her to follow. Theyâre close to the treeline by now, but it wonât be enough until theyâre completely hidden. And, although he canât see where the wolf has gone with his old enemy, Jimin steps in something wet and everything suddenly reeks of blood, so he knows Jungkook is near. Apparently, Y/n can smell it, too, because sheâs struggling harder now.
âJungkoo-- Jungkook, stop him!â Jimin grits his teeth and stops, turning to face his girlfriend and pulling her forward. She crashes right into him, the force of his sudden movement propelling her straight into his arms. Her eyes are wide open but her visionâs completely blacked out, which Jimin can see in the fact that she wonât look at him. But he doesnât need her to.
Ducking low, he wraps an arm around her waist and throws her over his shoulder, ignoring her cries of outrage as he races for the forest just ahead. She pounds her fists against his back, practically roaring with fury as she fights him. He only pushes on, telling himself heâll let her be as mad as she wants later, if theyâre still alive.
Once they make it into the forest, Jimin runs only far enough that he feels unseen before setting her on her feet. Sheâs immediately falling to the ground, crawling blindly away from him and clawing at the dirt in pain.
âGo away! Just go away!â Disappearing behind a tree, she swears at him loudly, looking for any outlet for her pain. Jimin only turns to the treeline, letting her curse him as he surveys the land around him for Death Eaters. All he sees is Jungkook in the distance, turning in circles in the field as if lost.
Jimin watches as the wolf races for their friends, sliding to an urgent stop and turning back again in confusion when he doesnât find what heâs looking for. He sees when Jungkookâs ears perk up at someoneâs call, and his head is turning in Hoseokâs direction. Hoseokâs lips move, giving instructions Jimin canât hear, but he knows exactly whatâs been said when Jungkookâs whipping around to look at the trees.
Interestingly, the wolf hesitates, moving forward before stopping to looking over his shoulder. Itâs only a moment, but itâs enough for Hoseok to point out at the forest urgently as he blocks another curse. Jimin can read Hoseokâs lips clearly then as the older boy calls out to Jungkook.
Jimin will die if you donât go.
The chill that runs down Jiminâs spine at that moment, an omen playing a cruel joke on him, only worsens when he realizes that heâs stopped being able to hear Y/nâs pained gasps. A low whine rings out behind him, and itâs with bated breath that Jiminâs turning slowly on his heels.
Towering over him with an icy gaze locked on him is Y/n -- rather, itâs the part of Y/n that has no idea who he is in that moment. The eyes that see him only see through him, completely empty of anything that isnât primal. Where Jungkookâs eyes are still his own even in a wolfâs body, these eyes donât recognize him, and Jimin knows that fact alone will haunt him forever.
Yet, he isnât afraid of her. Heâs only afraid for her -- for the way sheâs still curled in on herself, still in pain. Heâs afraid for the way she blinks, thoughts muddled and lost, struggling to find herself in the darkness of her mind. Heâs especially afraid for the way she finally gives in, losing her will to fight for herself. Her pupils shrink and grow until sheâs focusing in on him, and Jimin knows by the way she tilts her head curiously at him that heâs got her attention -- and thatâs never good.
When she takes a step toward him, he mirrors it with a step back, and that alone seems to set her off. She moves suddenly, closing the distance between them easily. She leans down until her snout is pushed close to his nose, snarling at him as he stays frozen where he stands. When she raises one clawed hand, he barely has time for a final thought before sheâs swinging down at him.
Well, shit.
Suddenly, Jiminâs flying through the air and crashing to the ground a few feet away, rolling to a stop at the base of a tree with a groan -- but heâs in one piece. Lifting his head, he finds that he hadnât been sliced to pieces by his own girlfriend. Heâd been shoved out of the way by a wolf twice his size, the wolf in question now standing where he had just been.
Jungkookâs got his teeth latched around Y/nâs wrist, growling loudly to keep her attention on him. They stand there a few moments, eyes locked in a tense stare-down of dominance. Y/n eventually raises her other hand, claws gleaming in the moonlight, but Jungkook only growls again, a warning. It stops her, as if recognizing this moment, and, although she seems enraged by the display, she lowers her hand anyway.
Ripping her other, trapped, wrist from Jungkookâs jaws, she lets out her own snarl and steps toward him, and Jimin thinks these two might really tear each other apart. But Jungkookâs been here countless times, and heâs still of clear mind, so he knows exactly what to do.
Crouching quickly, he snaps his teeth at her ankles, sending her backwards. She roars angrily, but he persists, snapping at her feet again and again until sheâs finally scurrying off into the forest with a cry of outrage. Jungkook watches her go before rushing to Jimin, startling the boy out of his shock.
The wolf sniffs at the air around Jimin, knocking him around with his massive head as he pushes his snout into Jiminâs torso, checking for injuries. Jiminâs lost for a moment, wondering exactly why Jungkookâs expressing so much concern when Y/n should be his priority, but then he remembers exactly what it would mean if he had been caught by one of Y/nâs claws.
Once Jungkookâs done checking that Jimin wonât be turning into a werewolf anytime soon, heâs gone, disappearing after his sister. Jimin only sits there, bruised and battered but alive all the same. Then he hears someone yelling Taehyungâs name in the distance, and heâs on his feet.
Rushing out to the field, he stops at the top of the hill, his breath catching in his throat when he sees the scene down below. His friends are still surrounded, and, although the number of Death Eaters has been severely reduced thanks to the merciless animagus running around, thereâs still too many of them. But before he can rush to help, something happens, all too fast to process -- and Jimin has the displeasure of witnessing everything from that hill.
Down in the circle, the rest of the group is fighting for their lives. Many of the boys have sustained injuries simply from their own shields exploding too close to them -- pieces of the ground and debris from the house are thrown around, catching on their bodies in surface wounds they wonât even notice until the next morning.
Thereâs a special kind of desperation spilling off of Namjoon and Taehyung -- the only muggleborns in that circle -- and itâs making one of them reckless. Namjoonâs keeping his cool, as heâs been in the Order for months now and has had the battle training, but Jinâs having to compensate for small mistakes Taehyung is making out of fear. The Gryffindorâs only a boy, a boy targeted simply for being born. This is the first time heâs ever been faced with his own reality, and heâs terrified.
So when he slips on a piece of rubble at his feet, the only thing that keeps him alive is the fact that heâd moved his head a quarter of an inch to the left just in time. The killing curse flies past him and through the circle, passing Yoongi on the right and hitting a mark just past him -- that mark is the Death Eater that Yoongi had been battling all night.
The boy crumples instantly, the light in his eyes gone. Yoongi watches as he goes, his mind blank as the body crashes to the ground. And then heâs turning on his heel, everything slowed and muffled around him. The Death Eaters have all stopped, equally shocked from whatâs just occurred -- after all, theyâre just boys, too.
Yoongi hears Jin yelling Taehyungâs name, and he sees Hoseok rushing for him. He watches as Namjoon starts to run to Tae and then stop, raising his wand and choosing to keep guard instead, realizing that their fight isnât over. Yoongi watches all of it with wide eyes, thinking then that this scene would be very different had the curse hit Taehyung as intended. He spins, staring down at the dead body below him, thinking that this is what Taehyung would have been. This lifeless, empty corpse. And thatâs just too much for someone like Yoongi to deal with.
In that moment, the strength of the silent marksman is broken, shattered from within as he fights no longer to protect his own life but those of his friends. In that moment, he proves to be much more worthy than heâd ever thought himself before, breaking through that perpetual tendency to hide himself away â but it comes at a price. Because itâs in that moment that Min Yoongi, for all that heâd tried to free himself of that cursed name, finally gives in to the bloodline heâd spent his whole life denying.
âProtego diabolica!â The spell is cast like the roar of a dragon awakened, enraged -- the first time heâs spoken an incantation in years. Itâs ripped from his lungs against his will, uttered with nothing but the urge to destroy, the need to bring pain down on his enemies so that they may never hurt his family again. That dark magic â so forbidden, so evil â follows the command of his left arm, quite literally brought to life by the malice in his eyes and the sweeping of his hand in an arc around himself. And for the first time in the 7 years Jimin had known the shy, self-loathing Slytherin â so guarded from the vulnerabilities of life â he watches from that hill as Yoongi loses control.
The fire that flows out of his hand like water -- icy and unforgiving -- spreads out around Yoongi like a wall of pitch black rage. It passes right over his friends -- they flinch at the foreign magic and its caster, who seems equally foreign to them now. They watch with awe as Yoongi commands the fire, forming a protective circle around them with ease. It almost seems to feed off of his rage, growing with every breath he takes and shrinking with the fall of his chest. He is a snake no more -- a dragon birthed of fire and blood stands in his place.
Jimin watches in pained silence as one of his closest friends loses himself to the war -- but even now, he can still see that Yoongiâs still there. And itâs Yoongi that will have to deal with consequences later, but right now heâs doing whatever it takes to save them. And that includes exploding with anger the moment he spots Jimin still up on that hill.
âGet your ass in here!â The ring of fire seems to swell with his outrage, and Jimin is in no place to refuse. The Death Eaters are still shocked and disoriented by the wall of fire theyâre now faced with, and Jimin uses that to his advantage. Racing down the hill, he leaps into the circle, the cold flames licking at his ankles as they let him pass, recognizing him as a friend to their master.
Having seen Jiminâs success at passing through the ring, two of the Death Eaters rush at the wall, unaware of the nature of this dark magic. The moment they make contact with it, the fire senses their intentions, reacting accordingly. Jimin watches as they dissolve into nothing, shrieks of pain ringing out into the air as the fire consumes them. When he turns, he sees that Yoongi is shaken by this, his eyes conflicted as he watches two of his classmates cease to exist, remembering exactly what kind of magic heâs just brought into the world.
But when one of the last Death Eaters attempts to cast another killing curse into the circle, hoping to get through, the fire seems to act not on Yoongiâs command but on his instinct -- and his instinct is to block it. The flames explode outward, concentrating into a wall of protection and destroying the curse. And then they reach further, snaking out to overpower the boy whoâd cast the spell, consuming him and his plea for mercy.
Thereâs only one Death Eater left, standing just outside the circle. Yoongi locks eyes with him, sees the trembling boy staring back at him with fear. They see each other, remembering simultaneously all the times theyâd eaten together at mealtimes and suffered together during exam season. Theyâd grown up together. Just how theyâd ended up here, neither of them can recall in that moment, and it destroys whatever innocence theyâd had left.
Yoongi finally looks out to the field, his eyes flicking quickly before returning to the Death Eater. The boy hesitates, eventually stepping back. After another moment, he turns, running for his life and never looking back.
When heâs gone, the ring of fire fades, the wall tumbling down until all thatâs left is a ring of earth around them thatâs been burned to a crisp. Yoongi crumbles then, falling to his knees and staring at nothing. Jimin and Hoseok rush to him, eyes scanning him in concern. They all remain silent, words unable to express what any of them are feeling. Finally, Yoongi lifts his head, still unable to lock eyes with anyone.
âIs everyone okay?â They donât answer his question, Jin only scoffing in shell-shocked disbelief.
âAre you okay?â Yoongi looks at his best friend, and he knows Jin can see right through him. They all can. He doesnât respond, and they fall to silence again. Surrounded by bodies and destruction, unable to comprehend whatâs happened. Unable to fathom how inexplicably broken theyâve become.
Just when theyâre ready to face each other -- when theyâre ready to face the aftermath of this night together -- a howl rings out from the forest, pained and haunting. They all lift their heads to stare in exhaustion at the treeline, outlined perfectly by the light of a moon that isnât full. Yoongi chuckles darkly, shaking his head as he rises slowly to his feet and dusts off his pants before turning to look at what's left of his home with a long sigh.
