Chapter 3: Attacks in the Night

Midnight in the Psychiatric Ward of St. Mungo's. Two young nurses were sitting behind the glass station over looking the main room.

All patients were in their rooms asleep or doing whatever it was they were doing. All the doctors for this ward were at thier homes during this stormy night sleeping most likely.

The nurses were working on charts and were very frightened when the doors blew open and in walked three cloaked figures with white masks.

One of them shattered the glass of the nurse's station and two jumped over as one grabbed the girls.

"Ello puppets. We're looking for Dumbledore's brats," the man sneered.

"We…we don't have Dumbledores here," Grimsby stuttered.

"Yes they do," a woman's voice replied looking over files.

"Where are they?" the man asked.

"Isolation," the woman's voice smirked.

"We'll deal with these two later," the man hissed as he waved his wand over the nurses and they were bound and gagged.

The three death eaters; as that was what they were headed off down to the isolation ward where they blasted through the doors and started blasting all the doors of the rooms not caring what damage was done till they got to room 112.


Rachel jerked awake and whimpered softly as the dark figures entered her room. She pulled her covers over her head hoping they'd go away. Her sheet was jerked off of her and she was thrown out of bed onto the floor.

"Lookie here. The little Dumbledore brat in the psycho ward," the female chuckled.

"Lost her mind from the Dark Lord's attack word has it. Her aunt did as well," One of the men replied throwing Natasha at Rachel.

"And here's Dumbledore's sister. Made crazy by muggles," the other man laughed.

Natasha pulled Rachel and Bridgett to her glaring at them.

"You are not supposed to be here!" Natasha snapped.

"Feisty thing for being of the mentality of a brat," one of the men chuckled and slapped the girl hard. Natasha turned to face them glaring through her tears.

"Let's get this over with I want to have some fun with that cute nurse," the second man gruffed.

The three raised their wands and shouted, "Avada Kedavra!"

"Illumnus Protego!" a voice stated casually as a brilliant white light of shield appeared in front of the girls and rebound the curses.

The three death eaters barely had time to save themselves.

"What the bloody hell!?" the woman snarled.

The three girls were looking all around smiling.

"Something or someone is in here," the first man stated.

The girls were looking around as much as the death eaters when the high window up above shattered raining sharp glass on the death eaters slicing at them like knives but the girls were left unharmed. The rain from the storm outside began to leak inside.

"I told you you weren't supposed to be in here," Natasha smirked.

"Granny's going to get you now," Rachel added grinning.

"Granny?" the first man asked.

"Your granny's dead," the second snarled.

A slow tsk tsk tsking was heard and the death eaters looked up to see a soaking wet woman sitting in the window seal. Her hair blew around her and stuck in some place to her face. Her white spaghetti strap nightdress was soaked throw and you could see through it when the lightening lit up the sky.

"So much trouble you're making to my ward. So much trouble to my children," the woman tsked as she dropped and landed on the ground as softly as a cat on the glass barefoot.

"Who the hell are you?" the second man snapped coming forward.

"Oh yes no introductions my manners leave me with my age I'm afraid," the woman sighed, "I'm Katherine. Katherine LeFay McGonagall. I'm Minerva's mother."

"Minerva's mother?" the first man questioned.

"Aye and I'm quite displeased at the way you treated my patients and my children," Katherine nodded stepping forward as the glass cracked beneath her.

"We might as well have some fun with you. You seem fitter than the nurses," the second man replied coming forward and pinning Katherine against the wall.

He took off his mask to reveal Amycus Carrow.

He ripped open the front of Katherine's gown and started fondling her breasts as his other hand went into the bottom of her night dress toward her knickers.

"You know the last time this happened my husband walked in," Katherine groaned.

"And what happened?" Amycus asked.

"I killed the son of a bitch," Benjamin replied flinging a dagger into the death eaters back.

Amycus groaned and slowly fell to his knees looking up at Katherine.

"Aw Ben I was saving that poisoned dagger," Katherine pouted.

"I'll buy you another one," Benjamin replied.

He came in the room in red cotton pajamas that were soaked as was his hair.

"Who are you?" the first man asked as now the other two death eaters didn't know what to do.

The female was knelt over the dying man trying to help as he foamed at the mouth and convulsed before lying still staring at the ceiling.

"Well then are you two going to leave or not?" Katherine asked.

In answer the other two started firing spells at her with full force. With the death eaters distracted on her Benjamin was able to get the three girls out as well as round up the other patients and get everyone safely to the main room where he freed the nurses.

Ben then punched through the glass of what appeared to be a fire alarm and pushed the red button hard as he then grabbed the phone device next to it and shouted, "DEATH EATERS IN PSYCH ATTACKING!!! I REAPEAT DEATHER EATERS IN PSYCH ATTACKING!! THIS IS NOT A DRILL!!"

Alarms stating go off all over the place.


Katherine easily handled both death eaters and in no time had the other man; Rudolphus Lestrange, dead. The woman; Alecto Carrow, was not cowering under her.

"Tell your master he tries screwing with any of my children or grandchildren again and I'll mount his head in my husband's den!" Katherine hissed before pointing her wand at the woman's wand hand and shattering it as she took the wand and snapped it in three pieces.

Alecto cried out in pain as she disappeared just seconds before the aurors arrived.


All the psych patients were watching as the aurors and the coroners left with the bodies. Ben and Katherine were wrapped around each other with blankets on them and the patients behind them.

"We fixed the damage ma'am you can move everyone back to bed if you like and we're sorry for what happened. We're gonna post aurors around this ward now knowing what's at stake," Shaklebolt said nodding to Rachel, Bridgett, and Natasha.

The three girls were watching everything in fascination.

"Thank you Kingsley and I'd like you to tell Albus and Minerva personally and tell them if they want.... to get me and I'll verify the girls are fine," Katherine replied.

Kingsley nodded and left after the others.

"Okay everyone back to bed!" Katherine stated.

With the nurses help all patients were put to bed safely and sleeping.

"You're safe Annette I promise," Katherine whispered tucking her granddaughter in the bed.

"I know. I have you," Rachel/Annette smiled and shut her eyes.

Katherine smiled and kissed the girl's head laving the room.

"Let's go home," Ben sighed.

Katherine nodded and held him close as he apparated them to their home.
