Thread: Adderstrike(HP)Church/Moon

The pain suddenly stopped and Mad-eye wasn't even paying him any attention, the yelling coming from someone else entirely. Was that Snape? Blake turned his head enough to see that it was, his fingers stretching as if reaching towards him for protection from these others. They might not have been torturing the boy themselves but they certainly weren't preventing Moony from doing it either. The man looked slightly embarrassed that he had been caught by Snape though the anger was far more visible when he learned that his actions had been taped and sent to the Ministry. You had him and didn't tell us? He asked angrily How did you even know he would be here Severus? The man asked him, and how would he have known about Adderstrike having the video camera and then not relaying this information to them? Blake's eyes fluttered closed as Snape's hand gently brushed the hair from his face, his fingers still moving though he didn't have the energy to try and pull at the restraints on his wrists. His eyes opened back up as Snape spoke in his mind. For a while he had thought only Zach was capable of this, especially when he had been the only one to ever do it and then when the one woman tried getting into his mind she was easily blocked. His head nodded minutely, saying that he understood, though he didn't think he would be able to do anything to help him even if it was needed. What the hell was Harry doing that was so important that he was going to leave them here by themselves very easily outnumbered. Hell, even if Blake was feeling up to fighting he didn't have the knowledge or experience to fight an Auror. And then Harry came in. Blake could sense the change in the atmosphere when he entered the room, his magic radiating off of him in waves. Ahh, he was getting the suit, noticing it. He would have appreciated it a little more if his mind was a little clearer and would have made a mental note to mess with him later about how he got so dressed up to come to a fight. Harry mentioned his mother and he knew then that it was his letter that had gotten them here, but how did they know about the Aurors? So Harry did remember his mother, and had been looking for him all this time and was right under his nose. Zach's name came up yet again and Blake fought the unconsciousness to listen to what they were saying. Zach was a member of the Order until we found out he was leaking our information to someone. We don't know who. Well clearly it wasn't Adderstrike so Zach just seemed to be in everybody's business without hardly anyone knowing. The Aurors gathered there were just in so much shock that they couldn't even do anything to even raise a wand against Harry, so surprised to see that he was alive and doing magic, the King of the Adderstrike no less. The potion was put against Blake's lips, glad that Snape helped him to drink it. It was cold as it slid down his throat, soothing the soreness. It worked quickly, making him at least partially mobile though not by much. Blake had to admire the power and presence Harry acquired. Everyone was silent when he spoke and without even trying things in the room were moving, papers flying around the room, mirrors cracking. What was more was the fact that he didn't send someone to come and get him back. He came himself, if he was alone he didn't know, though it wouldn't surprise him. Harry, we looked for you for years . There was absolutely no trace of you. There was a huge outrage when people even suggested they give up the search for you and pronounce you dead a woman said to him. She wasn't the idiot who had piped up earlier and was sickened by the fact they were torturing a child. Blake sagged in Snape's arms as he was lifted from the chair, his arm closest to the man going around his neck to help with the awkwardness of carrying dead weight. Everyone was far too busy watching Harry to even notice that their 'prisoner' was being carried out the window by one of their own. Once they were away from the room he started fidgeting you can't leave him there alone he told Severus, his voice coming out almost as a whisper he was so hoarse. He wouldn't be having Harry killed just because he was stupid and rushed off when he got a little hot-headed. No one needed him but there were so many kids that depended on Harry to keep them safe and fed and to be a great leader. Blake didn't think he would be able to live with himself if it turned out that Harry ended up being killed because of him. Partly because of his role in Adderstrike, also because he believed Zach was good, too, and he could talk with him about the man without having the other think of him as nothing more than a murderous monster. All of a sudden his eyes started closing, finding it was harder to think and put words together, not knowing if it was the potion or if Snape had used a spell on him to put him out so he wouldn't fight with him or just to stop the pain altogether. It would be almost a full week before he woke again, parts of his sleep uninterrupted and others he would almost be conscious and could hear people talking, though much of it sounded as if he were underwater and he couldn't understand them that well. Even before his eyes had opened he was asking about Harry, needing to know that he was alright and nothing bad had come of him, not knowing that he had been out for so long and they would be more worried that he was going to be okay. Moony glanced towards where Blake had been, noticing his disappearance and knowing then that he wasn't on their side. Snape could claim that he had simply taken him to a hospital and then the boy was taken by Adderstrike and everyone would believe him since Snape's record was crystal clear. However, Mad-eye knew and even though he would be in Azkaban he knew better than to believe that Severus wasn't involved with the Adderstrike secretly. Zach was really paranoid right before he left. It was really out of character, he kept mumbling things about Grindelwald and Josiah. I've never heard of a Josiah but it was clear Zach was scared of him. This was the woman again, Moony telling her to shut up before looking at Harry. He didn't understand why they were all spilling their guts to him, they didn't know what agenda he followed and he happened to know a little something about why Zach was acting so strangely but wanted to keep it to himself. After Blake had been safely returned to Adderstrike, Shadow Strike was sent in as they had been ordered, throwing in several smoke bombs and tossing a gas mask to Harry. All of the Aurors rushed out of the room, choking on the smoke, trying to get to wherever the oxygen was. After they got Harry out and far enough away an explosion was heard and a huge smoke cloud entered the sky where the building was. A couple Aurors had been killed but it would only take moments more for the Ministry to get there, taking the rest of them into custody and took them back to try them immediately for using the unforgivable curse and using it on a defenseless subject and a child above that. They would be sent to Azkaban in the short future, there was no possible way that anyone could argue any other option.
