A Talent for Death

Places To Go, Things To Do

“You be careful dear, I read the morning edition of the Daily Prophet, I know very well what's going on.” Seeing her daughter's exasperation she defended herself. “Don't tell me you haven't noticed the obituary section growing.”

“Mum. I love you, I don't want you to worry unnecessarily. My wand is in my sleeve, and I won't take any risks. I'm taking the scooter did you need anything beside tomato sauce?”

“Baguette. We'll have it with dinner.”

Before her mum could issue anymore warnings of doom she ducked out the door. In the garage she pulled the snug helmet on and sped out of the drive.

Engaging the kickstand she hung her helmet on the back, casting an anti-theft charm. A noise caught her notice. A plain sort of woman was being accosted by a man. She approached the two. Wand out she ducked between two cars putting a disillusionment charm on herself. Silently she walked to the man. From looking at his shoes she could tell he wasn't a muggle.

She put a body-binding jinx on him, then wrapped her arms around him and disapparated. They arrived in a field outside the city limits. She let go of the man and he fell over. “Messing with defenceless Muggles,” she clicked her tongue. Since she was still under the concealment charm, fear flashed in the wizard's eyes. “She bent down and pulled back his left sleeve. “My my you have been a very bad boy. I tell you what I'm going to let you go today.”

She pulled out a switchblade flicking it open with barely a movement. “Muggles made this,” turning the blade catching the light. She cut a double x through his Dark Mark. “I'll know you if I come across you again.” Pulling a tiny phial out she unstoppered it. “This is going to do wonders for you. It's a mixture of a Forgetfulness Potion with a healthy ratio of Everlasting Elixir. Just so you know; if I ever catch you at it again I'm going to make you choke on my blade.” The switchblade glinted as she wiped the congealing blood on his shirt. Levitating him to a standing position she tipped the contents of the glass vessel into his unresisting mouth. She drew her wand down along his neck and chest guiding the potion into his stomach.

Two Beats

Releasing him from the body-bind she disapparated back to the market. On the side of the building she removed the disillusionment charm.

“Tomato sauce and a baguette coming right up.” That was fun.
