Who: Harry & Susan
What: Auror shenanigans
Where: Cornwall
When: Saturday evening into late night
Rating: Possibly NSFW because violence
It was a sad fact of life that as an Auror, you had to expect your weekends to be cut short unexpectedly. It hadn't happened for awhile, but the lucky streak couldn't last forever. Harry was just glad that Teddy hadn't been planning to sleep over; he hated to disappoint his godson. As it was, Harry had no plans to be cut short for Saturday night. Which was probably a little sad, but he didn't mind quiet nights at home. So when he got the call to report to the Ministry for a briefing, it was short work to pull on his Auror's robes and Floo to the office. He wasn't surprised to see Susan there, and they walked together into the Head's office.
"Thank you for coming in," Auror Proudfoot said, her face grim. She began to outline the problem: a cult of warlocks that Harry and Susan had had run-ins with previously had kidnapped the daughter of a Wizengamot member. Their purpose was unknown, but this particular group was known to use Dark Magic in rituals. Various cult members were in and out of Azkaban on a variety of charges, but there were more than Harry was comfortable with still on the loose. These rituals had never before involved human life, and he didn't like the idea that they could have escalated so much without any sign or warning.
Proudfoot finished her briefing with, "Their last known location was a farmhouse in Cornwall, but the exact location is impossible to locate. You two will Apparate to what we've determined is the closest town. Two other teams will be working from north and west of you. Between you all, you'll triangulate the position and move in. We don't know what their timetable is, so you'll need to work quickly."
"Understood." He could feel his mind shifting into what he called Auror mode, and looked at Susan. "Ready?"
