The Joker Rising

A Lone Figure

In a blissful morning Albus Dumbledore sat at his desk pondering the last four years of Micheal at Hogwarts. He plopped one of his precious lemon drops in to his mouth. 

Through all the adventures Micheal escaped from Tom or one of his servants by sheer luck. 'where have I gone wrong?' Albus silently asked to himself. Micheal was suppose to be the savior of the Wizarding World and yet his magic was only a tiny bit stronger than the average first year. In comparison he was only a tiny bit more powerful than a pureblood first year, he is now a fourth year.  

Perhaps...No it couldn't be could it?

Perhaps Hadrian Potter was the Real Boy-Who-Lived not Micheal. Perhaps the lightning bolt scar on Hadrian's forehead was the mark of Voldemort. But no. Hadrian Potter died in the orphanage 9 almost 10 years ago. 

Hi mind suddenly went to the young boy he saw four years ago in the last attack at Hogsmade. They were after him calling the heir, that couldn't be him. but there was so much power in the boy, it was suffocating. Albus admitted that he has never felt that much before in his long life. There was no proof that Hadrian neither died or lived. 

In the silence of his office he sat thinking about Michael and it being this years first Hogsmeade weekend. 

Students were all excited, even thought there is a masked murder on the lose and Death Eaters out. Voldemort some where out there too. But the students were excited.  Three lone students however, were not.

"Are you sure about this?" Hermione Granger asked.

"yes, I am quite sure, Ms. Granger. the kids need to get out and relieve their stress. I have The Order and Aurors to patrol the town." 

The Golden Trio as they were known, Micheal Potter Hermione Granger and Ronald Weasley, they headed out of the Headmasters office to rejoin their classmates in line to leave the school. 

The three went to have a good time, Micheal being a huge stuck up as he his treated like a king everywhere he goes. It was calm but they always attack when its calm.

Some where in London

"Hey Hadrian got word there is a raid happening, your not going to beileve where it is" Marcus came in to the library Hadrian had to have. He looked up from his book "Hogmeade."

"Spectacular." Hadrian set his book down to get ready to leave  "Your coming with." 

"What really?" Marcus lit up only once did he get to see Hadrian "and Rosa I bet." Hadrian smiled and nodded.

"She was the one that killed my father that some how lived and also broke out of Azkaban" He said "grab your cloak and lets go."

They each grabbed their weapons and then their cloak. The cloak was special in the sense of the charm, which concealed their faces from anyone looking in. It was also resistant to the weather, and all minor curses. Once they both were ready they left the comforting confines of their magically enlarged apartment and apparated to the shrieking shack, under the mask of Hadrian a sinister and hopeful grin was on his face. 

They waited around for about a week till Marcus heard of this on in Hogsmeade. Marcus and Rosa waited up top the hill watching their friend and  master do his work. Marcus never got made he knows what Hadrian is capable of and what he couldn't do. Let his emotions fall. It was hard for his and Marcus had to stay with him, and Rosa on certain times to keep him sane. And today is one of them, Hadrian made sure she was in Azkaban and now three years latter she escaped now she needed to be repaid the dept. 

Rosa though complained that it was not fair for Hadrian to have fun with out her but listened when he promised her at least one arm depending how was killed. Even as hard as Hadrian had with controlling his powers he had to keep to codes to stay himself all the time. 

In the town the students all ran to safety behind the gates in Hogwarts but were to scared to leave so they watched. The Order members and Aurors all  fighting but soon realized who was there. The lead Death Eater Bellatrix Lestrange stood, she cackle her insane laugh, and shooting off random curses. With in fifteen seconds Five people were dead.  

"Ickle baby Potter, where are you?" she sang out as the rest of the Death Eaters slowly advanced. The townsfolk began to run the other way, screaming their heads off. Micheal in a typically arrogant manner, strode forwards.

"I'm here!" he declared flippantly.

Lestrange, in response laughed, casing Micheal to wince from her shrill. 

"So baby Potter thinks he can play with grown ups?" She yelled back and firing of a Crucio. which struck Micheal in the chest. The unfortunate Micheal fell immediately and succumbed to its painful effects. "Music to my ears," Bellatrix sighed out as Micheal continued to scream.   

No matter what what curse they threw at the Death Eaters the continued to march on. "Bombards!" a man yelled, the curse streaked and smacked into A Death Eater's head. His companions were showered in a rain of blood and brains, they they continued as if a curse hadn't blown up their comrade's head. But then  something surprising but terrifying happened, the headless Death Eater picked up its body and brandished its want, continuing to advance forward. 

They all stared in shock at the moving corpse. "They're zombies!" a man shouted in fear.  They are similar, but intrinsically distinct from a . Inferi are created through the magical branch of called , which is the art of raising the dead. The spells used to reanimate the corpse are complex. zombies are a form of Necromancy. While the students of Hogwarts would learn about them, they would not expect to meet them walking down the streets of Hogsmeade but here we are. The Zombie had no mind of its own, but they can take more complex orders than Inferi. If the corpse was a witch or wizard they could also do spells witch makes them more dangerous.  Zombies are a lot harder to stop but can be either bludgeoned to pieces or melted down. 

Dumbledore was shocked at how Voldemort manage to get a mast Necromancer since they are hard to come by. Dumbledore then ordered to find the Necromancer and the rest to fire off certain curses only. Dumbledore then  fired off a nonverbal, and hit by the scorching fire burned the first in to line to a pile of bones.    

By now the villagers and students, except for the Golden Trio of course) were evacuated. Soon the attacking forces were forced to retreat into Hogwarts.  The gate slammed and shut, and the advancing Death Eaters suddenly stood at attention. 

The two sided stared each other down. Bellatrix now joined the army of Zombies. they pulled in unison begin the wand movements of the killing curse. "Avada-"

Boom!

The rear flank of the Death Eaters was suddenly torn apart from the blast. All present turned to look at the source that caused to explosion. Everyone was shocked when a lone figure emerged from the smoke. It seemed that a third side had now joined the war.
