𝐂𝐇𝐀𝐏𝐓𝐄𝐑 𝟐𝟎. Department of Mysteries

Harry Potter was surrounded; his friends were all captured by Deatheaters and he had very little options. Lucius Malfoy stood in front of him demanding the glowing sphere.

They were sent by you-know-who to retrieve it and if their mission were to be unsuccessful, consequences would occur. And nobody wanted that for themselves.

"Give me the prophecy... Now." The man demanded yet again outreaching his hand. "Or watch your friends die."

Harry looked around his friends, they looked scared— were scared. He didn't know what to do.

"Don't give it to him, Harry!" Neville Longbottom cried out as Bellatrix Lestrange held him tightly by the neck, jabbing her wand deeper against his throat.

Harry debated for a second, he didn't want his friends to die, so he handed the prophecy in, slowly.

Finally, Lucius had the prophecy at grasp. He felt victorious, but before anything else happened a bright light appeared behind him.

Feeling puzzled he turned around, there he saw James Potter looking at him in pure anger.

"Get away from my son." James raised his fist and gave the older man a blow right in the face, and grabbed the prophecy with his other hand, careful to not drop it.

Shock filled the teenagers and Deatheaters. Snapping out of it, the Deatheaters pointed their wands at James making him raise both hands, being difficult to hold the glowing sphere.

"Oh don't mind me, I'm just here to pick up a few teenagers, now if you'll excuse me." He took out his wand and stunned a random Deatheater that had Luna Lovegood at grasp.

By then the rest of The Order came in and started stunning Deatheaters.

As this was happening, Lucius Malfoy tried to take the prophecy from James but James didn't budge. So, playing a game of tug-of-war, they kept at it.

Iris immediately looked around trying to spot Harry, she did and went by his side, making sure nothing happened to him.

Harry was stunned, to say the least, how was she here?

"How are you here?" He repeated the question, this time verbally.

Iris looked at him about to answer, but she saw a spell— from the corner of her eye— coming their way so she pulled him aside avoiding getting stunned.

"What do you mean "What are you doing here?", Harry, it's my job to keep you safe." Again, she pulled him aside and shot a spell in their direction.

The Deatheaters started to get angry and attacked The Order with more dark spells but The Order deflected them and protected the young ones.

After much work, James grabbed Harry and Iris to make sure they were ok. Tonks grabbed Luna and Ginny and started running while deflecting hexes.

Sirius quickly went to search for Keene and Ronnie. He found them with Ron deflecting the hexes, for a moment he was proud, seeing his family fight for what was right but he quickly snapped out of it and made sure they were okay. He told them to follow Tonks while he took care of the rest.

"Now listen to me I want you guys to take the others and get out of here." James said facing the teens.

"What? No, I'm staying here with you." Iris defended, being the stubborn teenager she is.

"Me too." Harry agreed.

"You've done beautifully, now let us take it from here." James softly said, hugging his son with one arm and Iris with the other.
