Chereads / Legacy of Harry Potter / Chapter 127 - Overwhelming Victory

Chapter 127 - Overwhelming Victory

November 1994

Hogsmeade Village

With Narcissa taking on 3 death eaters, Minerva taking on 4 and Filius battling 2 death eaters, Harry was left to deal with 9 death eaters.

 

Battling them to a stalemate was something that was not very difficult for Harry but killing them all would not be so easy.

 

He had taken few steps forward and closed some of the distance between him and the death eaters.

He was having a furious expression on his face and his green eyes were glowing even during the day light. More than half of the death eaters facing him were already injured from Harry's fiendfyre or from Hedwig's attack.

 

Even though Harry was furious, he was in no hurry. He was moving slowly as if taking a stroll in the park. In the same lazy like manner, he raised his hands and pointed his wand towards the death eaters.

 

Following his action, it appeared as if the air in front of the wand was being compresses. Visible ripples started to appear in the air and slowly the air started to rotate. The colourless appearance of the air started to change and it took a shadowy black colour.

In moments, the speed of the rotation increased dramatically and it took the shape of a vortex. A fast spinning vortex, black in colour.

Even though, from appearance it looked nothing dangerous but a feeling of dread spread among the death eaters facing Harry. It was as if, death itself was spreading with the vortex as the centre.

Their heart palpated with fear and they could not get rid the image of Harry's spell cleaving their comrade into two, from their heads.

 

But that was not end of the Harry's first spell. Following the formation of the first black coloured vortex, 6 more vortexes, 3 on each side of Harry were formed in the air.

 

Harry jabbed his wand and the vortexes launched themselves at the death eaters. All of these Harry's action happened in moments.

5 of the death eaters had fast reflexes and they fired their own spells to counter Harry's vortex. 5 of these spells collided with these vortexes. A stalemate for very small moment occurred and the spells of the death eaters dispersed immediately. The only effect of their spells was that they slowed the vortex a bit. This gave them more reaction time and all of 5 them fired two more consecutive and more powerful spells to finally counter the vortex.

 

Of the remaining 2 death eaters, one even though slow in his reflex was able to dodge the vortex. But it was nit a complete dodge. In the last moment, his right arm was grazed by the vortex. The death eater felt unprecedented pain and he screamed at the top of his lungs.

He did not lose his arm completely but a major chunk of flesh was missing above the elbow.

 

The last death eater was caught completely off guard. He had merely raised his wand, when Harry's vortex struck his chest and he screamed.

It was not a painless death as Minerva had given to her opponents. The vortex did not 'pierce' the chest but it drilled the flesh. Small chunks of bones, flesh and internal organs were splattered around as the vortex rotated and drilled inside.

The death eater continuously thrashed as he screamed in pain until death took over him.

The leader of the death eaters, who had just dispersed Harry's vortex, looked around and clenched his fist in frustration.

His eyes caught the scene of Minerva's statue killing four of his death eaters in one go, Narcissa's dangerous spell and Filius easily fighting two of his comrades to a stalemate and finally Harry killing another of his comrade.

 

Out of 21 death eaters who had arrived to attack Hogsmeade, 10 were already dead. Of the remaining 11, more than half were badly injured with two of them having lost their hands. He knew that if the battle continued for another few seconds, his entire group would be slaughtered.

What should have been a simple mission of attack and ambush was proving to be a death walk for them.

 

"Everyone," he shouted and the remaining death eaters turned their attention towards him.

 

Minerva's shrill voice immediately followed, "Harry…"

"They are going to retreat but not before firing a barrage of killing curses," she shouted. "This was the strategy, they used in the last war."

 

Harry having Voldemort's memories, how could he not be aware of all this? Before the death eaters could rally themselves, he whipped his wand and jabbed in quick motions.

 

Three spells left his wand and struck the ground. The three overpowered 'bombarda maxima' struck the ground and it was if a small earthquake had occurred.

The ground was blown up and three small craters were formed on the ground. Dust, pebbles and blocks of stones were launched in the air, obscuring the vision of both sides.

 

Harry did not stop here and slashed his wand continuously sending green slashes of the cutting curses.

One of his slash found its mark and struck a death eater killing him immediately, even before he could scream.

 

The other three professor were also not behind and fired consecutive spells towards the death eaters.

 

On the other hand, the death eaters losing their focus because of the call of their leader were caught completely off guard at the extra quick reaction from Harry and the professors.

 

Two more curses from the professors struck their mark and two more bodies fell.

 

The leader unable to complete even his last attack gritted his teeth, "Now..."

 

With his words, the death eaters took a sigh of relief and with the twist of space vanished from Hogsmeade.

 

Of the 21 death eaters that had come to attack Hogsmeade, 13 had been killed and Harry had secured an overwhelming victory in the battle of Hogsmeade.

 

As soon as the death eaters vanished, Harry's head snapped towards Filius Flitwick, "Where is Alastor Moody?"
