You-Know-Who is once again at
large!
Aritcle By Rita Skeeter
We all have heard rumors up to this point of supposed "attacks" led on
by you-know-who, but, up until recently, there has been no solid evidence to support these statements.
However, things took a sudden turn in the other direction on the first
of December. It seemed oridinary Wednesday, but, once night had fallen, some extraordinary events took place.
The Dark Lord took it upon himself to personally visit
the headquarters for the Order of the Phoenix (a formally secret society, for more details, see page 2) and
launch several terrifying suprise attacks.
"We were all very terrified," said Keele Zeibel, a seventh year student
at Hogwarts, and a member of the Order. "None of use knew what was happening, really, until it was already over with."
The attacks began at an unknown time when he who must not be named
simply strolled into the hideout, bringing along with him a girl who we will call "Miryanna". Miryanna was brought back
to them in a semi-conscious state, and thrown down to the ground in front of many witnesses. She had been severly tortured,
as well as beaten and attacked by both you-know-who himself, as well as a few of his most trusted Death Eaters.
It seems that Miryanna had been sent by the Order to join ranks with the Death Eaters. He claims to have known "right from
the start" that she was a spy, and that he had only allowed her to live to "set an example" to the rest of the Order.
Miryanna was immediately taken to the hospital wing, where she is currently
being treated. She was unavailable for comment.
As horrible as this all seems, the attacks did not stop there. After he
dropped the poor girl off at the Order's headquarters, he took it upon himself to visit the Three Broomsticks, where a group
of about three students were happily chatting and drinking butterbeer. He approached them quickly, and captured Linda Smith,
a seventh-year student at Hogwarts.
"I didn't know what was going on!" Linda is quoted as saying. "One minute,
we were just talking, and the next, you-know-who was standing beside me!" (see page 2 for a full account
of Linda's story)
Linda was held captive for approximately three days.
I did not manage to get ahold of the Dark Lord for coment, but I did,
however, happen across one of his most trusted Death Eaters. When asked to comment on the night's events, she replied,
"What a grand night! Now get the hell away from me or else-" at which point I decided to get away as quickly as possible.
Perhaps the most tragic of all, was the fact that there were no students
around to help the two girls. As one student, Jaden Anya, has said, "Sorry I was not there, but if I was, I would have helped!"
I think this about sums up the feelings of most the Order members who were absent that evening.
