The Third Revolution of 1634

[Phoenix in the Ashes]

The Third Revolution of 1634

The year 1634 is celebrated in British Wizarding history as being the great year of triumph that saw the mighty Magical Revolution that overthrough the governing Ministry of Magic and saw a more democratic governing and justice system put into place. What is often forgotten however in all the historical reminiscinses, is that that was not the only attempt at overthrowing the corrupt Ministry of the time - there were in fact four rebellions in 1634. This is the Third Revolution of 1634 - the one that got away.

Yvonne was busy trying to clear her desk that was overfilled with papers - all the paperworks involving the rebellions, and other ad hoc cases.

"Report on magic accident involving 2 goblins and 1 old wizard..." she mumbled to herself as she read the file she was trying to clear.
"Ahhh, I hate this job!!!" Yvonne stacked the cases together as she read another report. It has only been less than a month when she first joined the Auror department. But all this time, she had not joined in to any operations. It was just stacks and stacks of report cases for her to clear.

After an hour of reading, Yvonne slumped back to her seat and relaxed her eyes. Looking up, she grinned as she recalled her schooling days.

There were some pictures hanging on the walls of her cubicle.
Some were taken during her schooling days.
Dressed in the proud Slytherin quidditch robes, the Slytherin quidditch team of the 1629.
The graduating class of 1629 with all the 7th year student of that year.

And one very prominent photo - A family photo taken at her house.
No. 12 Grimmauld Place with the Black family crest hanging over at the background.
Yvonne was the youngest daughter of Alphard Black, the current Head of the Auror department in the Ministry of Magic.

Lord William Smythe had known that his oldest child, the son Jacob, was special.

When the letters from this Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry started arriving, he was not taken by surprise.

But the school seemed to give up when he didn't reply.

He had sighed to himself. This news could not travel. Already vicious witch-burnings went on.. and a scandal like this could have the Crown seize his estate with little excuse.

Therefore he told himself every single day before he went to bed that he was doing the right thing.

Jacob is special. But not that special.

But soon things changed, and it became clear to him...

Jacob matured - he got quicker, stronger... more powerful.

It became clear to him...

Jacob was that special.

So Lord William Smythe decided to use it to his advantage.

Yvonne was dozing off when she felt something pecking her hand. Stirring, she opened her eyes and saw the office owl on her table. A envelope adressed to her was lying near her hand. She rubbed her eyes and looked at her watch. It was already 10pm. Her shift was over. She opened the letter and read its content.

She couldn't believe what she had just read. The anonymous letter stated the details of a rebellion intended to take place tonight at 12 midnight.

[Phoenix in the Ashes]

Jacob was in the middle of robbing a rich knight's country estate when their bell tower rang, loud anddeafening, and causing him to lose his balance for a second on the vertical stone wall he was somehow gripping to.

Fire's going, he thought. Now I wait.

He was doing this for his father. Always for the family.
Serve your family. Use your gifts.

[choki]

Maybe, she thought... her father could still be in his room. Yvonne quickened her pace towards the head office down the long corridor. She hoped her father would be around in his office. Knocking the door, she waited for a reply. But sadly there was none.

"Alohamora!" The door refused to budge as expected. All the departmental offices were protected with charms once the user had magically locked the room.

It was getting very late and with no one at sight, Yvonne started to feel a little lost.

"What should I do?" Filled with anxiety, Yvonne took out the letter from her coat pocket and read through it one more.

The Order of Society's a mess
Heroes would gather once again
On the night of the full moon
At the Square of London
We shall rise again to set things right

[Scarlet Lioness]

Ursula was on the rug next to the fire fast asleep once the time ticked past midnight. She had dozed off.

Being a Weasley in this day and age, you didn't get much time to do anything you wanted. Life was a busy affair, Ursuala was the oldest in her family of 6 children,with another on the way and she was the only girl. She was meant to be doing homework.

[choki]

"Sick," she mumbled as she tried to maintain her balance. Yvonne had just apparated into one of the secluded alley near the town square. She figured that letter could be a hoax to trick the Auror office, especially when it was sent by an anonymous person. However, she had to be sure that nothing weird will happen tonight.

But right now, Yvonne has to get over with her motion sickness associated with the apparating.

[Phoenix in the Ashes]

The ladies and gentlemen at the rich knight's lodgings awoke with a start at the ringing of the bell in the tower.

They rushed out of the stone castle, and assembled on the other side of the moat.

Jacob climbed stealthily.

[choki]

Yvonne, while still trying to maintain her balance, heard the loud ringing coming from the tower. "It has started already?" she asked as the sounds of people got louder and louder.

Without any clues, she headed towards the source of the commotion.

[Phoenix in the Ashes]

Jacob was inside the cold, dark castle - he had a slight chill.

In all the commotion, most of the members of the household were now assembled outside. All he had to do was walk in a steal the sword. Easy. Nothing else - just the sword, his father said.

"It should be ours anyway," his father had said to him.

[choki]

Yvonne hid herself behind the carriage. The angry mob were carrying sticks and fire torches. Most of them were shouting loudly and Yvonne was unable to pick up any single word. They were far too noisy.
"Muggles..." She sighed. Finally a man stood up on top of a barrel and managed to calm the crowd.
"The intruder can't be far away! We have to find him!" said the man. He proceeded to give orders and the crowd started to disperse in different directions.

"An intruder alert" Yvonne was somehow relieved that the letter was not true after all. The night seemed to be peaceful except for this intruder commotion. But she sensed something weird... someone with magic was nearby... she could feel it...

"Better get away fast before I get mistaken as the intruder!" But she was too late, someone spotted her and yelled out loud.

"Urgh!" She cursed silently. She needed to get away this instance. Moving around the carriage and out of the sight of the man who spotted her, Yvonne disapparated with a loud crack.

The man quickly caught up but all he saw was nothing....

The next instance, Yvonne found herself in a corridor lined with armours. She had disapparated into the castle.

[Phoenix in the Ashes]

"H-hey! Who goes there?" Jacob shouted to a girl that had just appeared in the middle of the armoury somehow.

"Don't move!" he shouted, "I'm warning you!"

[choki]

Yvonne was feeling sick again. This was the second time she has disapparated today with only less than an hour apart. Feeling groggy, she heard someone shouted something at her, but she wasn't paying attention to it. All she wanted to do now, was to get rid of the motion sickness again.

[Phoenix in the Ashes]

Jacob brought his power in front of him, and spoke with force:

"Who goes there?"
