HP: In The Magical World As a An Extra [ Chapter 119 ]
🕑 Added 2024-10-03 11:40:47 +0000 UTCWith that job done Moody took the privilege of casting the animagus reversal charm and they all watched as the rat shifted and changed until the very next second an unconscious and cramped form of Peter Pettigrew lay on the floor of the enlarged cage.
"Peter Pettigrew," Andromeda said in a low growl with narrowed eyes as she glared at the rat faced man, which got a look of surprise from Shacklebolt who trained his wand on the now revealed Peter as well.
And upon pronouncement of the name a gasp was heard from behind them as Dumbledore and McGonagall arrived on the scene.
"Peter, but he… he's supposed to be dead," McGonagall said before turning her eyes to Dumbledore in shock who looked just as concerned but for different reasons, he had been too late to stop Peter being revealed.
Magnus from his position looked down at Pettigrew in the cage with anger in his eyes, this was the bastard who had framed Sirius and got him locked up for all these years, who had betrayed the Potters and got them killed all because he was to much of a coward to stand beside them and fight.
If it wasn't for the aurors around him and all of the witnesses Magnus had no trouble believing that he would happily make this rat bastard pay for what he had done.
He felt his magic surge inside him and his emotions threaten to spill over his reinforced mental walls wanting nothing more than to rip this worm apart.
After closing his eyes for a moment to regain control of his anger and emotions, Magnus opened his eyes again now calm as he looked over the rat, and as he did he noticed a familiar white tip protruding from one of his pockets and he instantly realized what it was.
"Expelliarmus" Magnus cast a second after adjusting his aim, his spell was true and the next second the white Yew and phoenix tail feather wand, that all potter fans know about, shot out of Peter's pocket and into his left hand.
He didn't hesitate for a second and returned his own wand to his holster before taking the wand between both his hands and snapped it with a satisfying crunch.
All of that happened in the space of a few seconds and his actions got looks of shock from all of those around him.
"mister Black," Madam Bones said a moment later, "that was rather sudden."
Magnus looked to her and then back to Peter, "apologizes Madam Bones, but considering who this man is and the last time he was seen, I have no intentions of letting him keep a wand on his person if there is even a chance that he could escape with it." He stated, also he was not about to let the chance to destroy Voldemort's wand escape him, nor give this rat any tools to escape with.
He knew that Peter was one of the main reasons for Voldemort's return, he was going to damn well make sure that there was no way for this worm to get free to slither off to bring back that bastard.
Moody gave a bark of laughter, "Nicely done lad, you'd make a fine auror, ever consider joining the force when you graduate." He smirked.
"A question for another time I think Sir, right now we have someone else to question I think." Magnus stated gesturing to Peter.
"Aye, right you are lad," Moody murmured as his magical eye swirled to Magnus and then back.
Amelia sighed as much as she wanted to she couldn't blame him for his rash actions, she would have done the same at his age, "as much as questioning him is a priority, doing so right here and now is to risky, it would be best if we were do so back at the DMLE," Madam Bones said at that.
"Moody, portkey him to a magical suppressing holding cell for the time being, Headmaster, if you would be so kind as to open the wards temporarily to allow us to take the suspect in for questioning."
Albus frowned at the request but knew that he would have no grounds to stop them from interrogating Peter and simply nodded as he gave the mental command for the wards to temporarily drop.
Seeing the nod Moody took out a Knutt from his pocket and tossed it into the cage and on top of Peter as he spoke out, "Guilty" and the next second Peter disappeared from the cage
Magnus let out a sigh when he saw that Peter was gone and everyone began to put their wands away. Amelia turned to him at that.
"Mister Black, Andromeda, If you might be so kind to come with us back to the DMLE, we have questions for the both of you as well concerning mister Pettigrew and how you became aware of him."
Andromeda nodded, "We will be happy to cooperate and answer all the questions you have," she agreed, as Magnus nodded as well knowing this was coming.
Dumbledore wanted to stop them and attempt to take things back to his office but knew better.
Amelia was a dedicated woman she wouldn't appreciate him interfering in proper procedure and so had no choice but to let them go before he left to back to his office.
He had floo calls to make and favours to call in if he had any hope in fixing matters before he lost control of things any further.
….
Magnus rubbed at the bridge of his eyes tiredly as he sat outside Amelia Bones' office with Andromeda, in the DLME offices.
They had left Hogwarts a little over two hours ago and spent the best part of an hour being asked question after question as to how they had come across Pettigrew in his Animagus form.
And Gabriel had made sure to stick to his story that it had all just been a theory that had turned out to be true.
Andromeda had been present for the entire interview as she was down as his guardian in both the muggle and magical means, and since he was underage, they legally could not question him without her present.
Though she had confirmed everything that Magnus had answered.
The reason that they were still waiting however was due to Magnus' request to Amelia for him to be allowed to watch the interrogation of Pettigrew when the time had come and that time was fast approaching as Amelia came out of her office, with three vanilla coloured folders in her arms, and turned to them.

Good, let's give Dumbledore a new headache.
