From the McKinnon Estate - Alastor, Callum, Others (?)
Months had suddenly turned into days and they were far from ready for this.

For the next week or so, he was still an Auror. He wasn't transitioning the Unit to Vance officially until approval for the Patrol came through. So, when the call to King's Cross had come through, he went. He was the best positioned of any of them to assess the need for the Order to be called as well.

Then the fire message from Potter had come through.

It had taken everything Alastor had in him not to return to the Ministry. His first instinct was to do his job. Protect the Ministry and their way of life. And, then he had to remind himself the way to do that was to get to Hogwarts and start the work their, while hoping their people made it out with as many innocents as they could.

So, he went back to Marlene's home. He had little enough he needed. He hadn't done more than get a few clothes and a couple books since his return months ago. When he arrived, he summoned those items and stuffed everything into a rucksack.

That was the easy part and it only took a few seconds.

Next he went searching for his brother. There were too many reasons why he couldn't leave Cal behind, both personal and professional. As soon as he found him, Alastor wasted no words.

"The Ministry has fallen. The enemy has taken control. Get your things. We're retreating to Hogwarts. There isn't the time to argue about this and I'm not leaving without you, so for the love of God, please just give me the benefit of the doubt this once and let's get out of here."
