Hogwarts: Wizards Supreme

"Your grandparents," Mrs. Foley pointed to the two middle-aged men and women in the photo, "These are my two brothers, Gideon and Fabian, this is Molly, and the one next to me is me."

"I am the youngest child in the Prewett family, but my personality is very different from theirs..." Mrs. Foley's blue eyes were full of memories, "I have never been able to make myself as brave as them, I always like Even when I cry, my brothers and sisters always take care of me."

"This photo was taken the year I entered school. At that time, Molly was in the sixth grade, Fabian was in the seventh grade, and Gideon had already graduated." Mrs. Foley showed a faint smile, "I always encounter things. I liked asking them for help, and it wasn’t until they graduated that I met Albert.”

Brian held his chin in one hand, looked at Mrs. Foley quietly, and smiled when he heard this.

"That day, Ferrier stole my homework and asked me to chase her... Peeves was adding fuel to the fire, and many people knew about the quarrel." Mrs. Foley curled her light red hair at the temples, "At that time, Peeves Bert happened to be passing by, stopped Ferrier, and did me a small favor... Of course, I know he didn't mean it, he just wanted to find trouble with Ferrier."

"So we got to know each other, and I was still crying at that time." Mrs. Foley said with a smile, "Later, he helped me a lot, but also caused me a lot of trouble, and I was imprisoned several times... …Your father was a headache for professors back then.”

"But it was also the happiest time. The Dark Lord had not yet risen, and the wizarding world was peaceful. I always thought that such days could last forever."

While Mrs. Foley was slowly recounting the past, in No. 12 Grimmauld Place, the Harry trio also packed their luggage, and everyone was celebrating Hermione and Ron's election as prefects.

Harry's mood became a little weird, and Mad-Eye Moody secretly slipped him a photo. A small group of people were looking up at them and waving outside the photo.

"The original Order of the Phoenix," Moody said in a deep voice, "I found it last night when I was looking for my spare invisibility cloak."

Moody slowly introduced the people in the photo: "This is me, and here are the Longbottoms... Lupine, Bones... Sirius, he still had short hair at that time... and..."

Harry looked at his parents in the picture, with Wormtail between them. Harry felt a little uneasy, but he still forced a smile.

"Emmeline Vance, you've met her... and Hagrid, I don't need to tell you..." Moody was still introducing the people in the photo, "The Prewett brothers, Molly's brothers, They fought bravely and tenaciously, and it took five Death Eaters to kill them..."

Harry thought of Mrs. Weasley, and something seemed to block his heart. Her brothers died fighting like heroes, and she is still scared. Then he thought about Brian.

"What happened back then? Why did Brian Foley's mother..." Harry asked.

"Oh, that was a very unpleasant mistake, Harry," said Moody gruffly.

In Foley Manor, Mrs. Foley was still narrating: "After your father graduated, the Dark Lord has begun to return to the world and recruit troops... Albert originally wanted to become a Quidditch player, but his father stopped him."

"Later, I also graduated from Hogwarts, and we officially confirmed our relationship." Mrs. Foley said with a smile, "but your grandfather objected. Your father was unruly at that time and always wanted to do something. To make a career, he finally decided to join the Dark Lord and support his career.”

Mrs. Foley's eyes became melancholy: "Actually, although I didn't like it very much at that time, I didn't object to it. After all, although their slogans and ideas were a bit extreme, the Death Eaters at that time were not that Dark and terrifying, the Dark Lord is also a wise and mighty warrior.”

"Some people are willing to follow the Dark Lord in order to create a better wizarding world... At least many of the people who joined originally had pure dreams or the idea of ​​establishing a career."

"The Prewett family, like many pure-blood families at that time, chose not to intervene and wait and see what happens." Mrs. Foley said, "Although Dumbledore founded the Order of the Phoenix, there were very few members at that time. For In the eyes of many pure-blood wizards, the philosophy of the Order of the Phoenix was outrageous. The Dark Lord at that time seemed to have hope of breaking the backwater of the wizarding world."

"Later, Albert and I got married, and the dark clouds did not affect us."

"Later, as the Dark Lord's power grew, he quickly became brutal and bloody, bringing terror to the entire wizarding world. His followers were afraid of his power and could only crawl under his command."

"Although Albert felt it was inappropriate, he still agreed with the Dark Lord's ideas and was willing to support and follow him." Mrs. Foley said, "He became one of the core members of the Death Eaters at that time."

"But the Dark Lord's actions caused huge panic. The Death Eaters turned into a terrorist organization and began to publicly execute Muggle-born wizards and Muggles, use forbidden spells and even send magical creatures to attack opponents... In this way His behavior quickly aroused resistance, and the first wizard war officially started..."

"Dumbledore's Order of the Phoenix has developed rapidly, and Gideon and Fabian have also joined in and devoted themselves to the cause of resisting the Dark Lord." Mrs. Foley's eyes were filled with sadness for the first time.

"I know that this is their philosophy, for justice and peace, with the purest faith..." Mrs. Foley smiled, "But I know very well the power of the Dark Lord and the unscrupulousness of those Death Eaters. …I found them and hoped that they would not go against the Dark Lord, but they refused.”

"Yes, I have never been so brave, and they are not willing to listen to me." Mrs. Foley said, "I found Molly and wanted to persuade her to pull her brother out of the quagmire of the Order of the Phoenix. The brothers were never willing to Listen to her."

"But Molly is willing to support her brothers' decision." Mrs. Foley pursed her lips. "I don't blame her, nor do I blame them. After all, everyone has their own persistence and is willing to risk their lives for their beliefs."

Brian gently held his mother's hand and said softly: "You are brave enough, Mom." He could think of how painful Mrs. Foley was at that time. Her husband joined the Death Eaters, but his brothers stood in resistance. camp, only she was caught in the middle, in a dilemma.

At No. 12 Grimmauld Place, Harry sat silently on the stairs, listening to Moody's low voice.

"Betty Prewett, she began to waver, hoping that both sides would be safe...but how little power one person has." Moody lamented, "She began to use her identity to get a lot of help from Foley. Less news and passed on to Molly…a lot of it helped us a lot.”

Mrs. Foley pursed her lips tightly and said: "I betrayed your father, Brian. I made a big mistake..."

Brian patted her hand. He understands that Mrs. Foley is just a wife and a sister. She does not have that kind of love for the country and the people. She just hopes that the people she cares about can live well.

"Until that time..." Mrs. Foley's cheeks turned pale, but her eyes seemed to be ignited with anger, "I overheard a piece of news. I heard it from Lucius when I was a guest at Malfoy Manor. ... They made a plan, ostensibly to concentrate their efforts on attacking an important figure protected by the Order of the Phoenix, but in fact they wanted to raid the stronghold of the Order of the Phoenix at that time."

"I quickly told Molly the news..." Mrs. Foley's eyes turned red, "But what was the result? Those scum from the Order of the Phoenix... They let Gideon and Fabian stay in the stronghold, just the two of them. personal!"

"Then they died..." Mrs. Foley said through gritted teeth.

Brian frowned, looking confused. He soothed Mrs. Foley and managed to calm her down.

Moody took a big sip from his curved wine bottle, and the blue magic eye squinted over to look at Harry, and said seriously: "Later, we found out that there were a lot more terrible news from Betty. Trap... After analysis, we believe that either she has completely turned to the Death Eaters, or she has been exposed... After all, she is not a qualified spy."

Harry held his breath, waiting for the next story.

"The last time, she sent a message..." Mad-Eye took another sip of wine, "She said that the Death Eaters had set a trap and were going to attack the stronghold... But we also received information from an agent of the Order of the Phoenix, who He broke into the service of the Lestranges and has made many achievements... His intelligence is completely opposite to Betty's."

"After careful consideration, we decided to trust our spies. After all, our stronghold was very confidential at that time, and the Death Eaters should not know about it," Moody said. "But at the same time, we were also considerate of Betty's feelings and did not let the Prewett brothers Instead of participating in the most dangerous operations, we asked them to stay in the stronghold and be ready to respond to us at any time."

"What's the result?" Harry said sternly.

"You know the result, the Prewett brothers are dead." Moody took a big gulp of wine. "The Order of the Phoenix had a spy and its stronghold was exposed. The spy was cast under the Imperius Curse and was later killed."

"After this incident, Arthur and Molly chose to join the Order of the Phoenix. As for Betty, she hated us and cut off contact with us from then on."
