Hogwarts.

A battle began in the middle of Hogsmeade square, with the professors fighting against a greater number of enemies, beginning to gain the upper hand. The students, who were being protected, could only create shields to avoid being hit by stray spells.

Lily remained firm in protecting the students by her side, while keeping other spells ready to protect the others.

"We should get out of here!" a student exclaimed in fear.

"We can't! There are too many of them around Hogsmeade, they'll kill us!" another student exclaimed, more in desperation than as if giving advice.

"We should just protect those who are here... the teachers will take care of the dark wizards!" Lily exclaimed to them.

As the fight started between the 4 professors and 10 dark wizards in the square, other terrorists were causing chaos throughout the town, while students tried to hide from receiving unforgivable curses, but not all were successful in doing so. After all, screams of agony and pain continued to be emitted throughout the town. Even some students were killed in the middle of the streets while others watched hidden.

"We finished this one... he didn't last long, what a waste," a wizard murmured alongside two others.

"I don't know what you see in torturing these kids... we should just kill them," the wizard at his side spoke.

"You're too soft, let's have some fun, not just kill them... That's no fun," the first wizard replied.

"Anyway... let's continue," the third of them spoke as he moved his wand and pulled a Hufflepuff student hidden behind some crates, as the boy emitted a surprised scream, being brought in front of the adults.

"Please..." the boy began to cry, seeing that his fate would be like that of the dead Ravenclaw student near him.

"I hope you last longer than the other," he said, and without them noticing, a shadow explosion appeared behind the last, and a knife pierced his skull.

"AHH!" The surprised scream arose as the student's eyes widened, which made the other two wizards look back, as the air was filled with blood.

"What?!" The wizards were surprised by their companion falling, bleeding from the head.

"What happened?!" The second exclaimed, dazed, after all, there was nothing there but his companion falling dead.

They looked at it horrified, after all, their companion died behind them without them being able to react. "He was hit in the head...! Who did this?!" one of them quickly spoke while his gaze darted in all directions looking for the perpetrator.

At that moment, another shadow exploded in the air, while they were still searching for the author of the attack, a blade pierced another of them with a person spinning in the air, before she disappeared into darkness, so quickly that even a second later the last dark wizard looking back, could not see Snape disappearing.

"!" The last wizard immediately took a step back in fright, he was about to leave there, when he felt someone touch his shoulder.

He immediately turned around frightened and cast a spell at the person behind him, turning his body to dodge the Avada Kedavra, and then grabbed the dark wizard's neck with one hand, while the other grabbed his hand holding the wand.

"Hm?!" The man choked as Snape easily lifted him and threw him to the ground the next moment, making the man drop his wand and feel his lungs out of air, while looking dazed at the masked man still holding him by the neck.
