The mystery figure was now stood outside of a small, abandoned-looking shack, in search of one thing, and one thing only - Marvolo Gaunt's ring.
Stepping into the shack, he quietly snuck into the living room, unsure as to whether the resident's owner was still home.
His unspoken question was answered almost immediately when he came face to face with the owner of the ring.
"WHO ARE YOU AND WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING IN MY HOUSE" the man roared, summoning his wand into his hand.
"I'm after your ring. If you continue to hold onto it, you'll endanger the entire wizardly world. Hand it over now and everyone will be safe".
"NEVER! IT'S MINE!"
"Then you leave me no choice. Stupefy!"
Blocked.
More silent attempts at stupefy flew from the figures wand alongside blocks for several counter-curses Marvolo attacked with, before finally, he muttered one quiet spell that forced its way through.
"Imperio".
It worked. Marvolo was now completely under the mystery figure's control.
"Give me the ring" he demanded.
The ring was promptly handed over. The figure grabbed it, lifted the imperious curse, and fled the scene before they could retaliate.
