ORDER ONLY: Hogwarts Floos disabled

[alt_severus]

To ensure everyone sees this:

Hogwarts' Floos are disabled. Bellatrix and Nott are present in the castle. Draco and Hermione are under questioning.

All of you: Prepare for evacuation, but do not act precipitously. With the Floos disabled, you will need to place yourself within range of one of the tunnels outside the castle. If I or anyone gives the signal, get out as quickly as you can, without stopping for any reason at all.

Should we warn the people who have galleons? I mean, just galleons, rather than being in the Order?

Because Hermione and Draco know all those names, too.

[alt_susan]

I was going to ask the same thing. And particularly, can I get my siblings in range of the tunnels? Ed and Carrie have Galleons, and even though they don't know anything, I don't think that will help them.

[alt_harry]

Right.

So two things they need to do. Make some chaos, and then know where to go if they need to evacuate. I'll get on it.

Gin, yes for the fireworks.

Ev, get to Peeves.

[alt_evelyn]

Right, I found him, he's got all the dungbombs I could get my hands on in Gryffindor.

[alt_severus]

Prepare to do so, but do not make a general alert yet: it will only cause panic.

[alt_susan]

Understood. Thanks, Mr. Snape.

Ed's searching with me, so I can send him to find the others.

We can provide a substantial diversion, and wand support in case we need to invade the castle.

Fred, George, Lee, nothing that can be traced to whizbangs. And for the love of Merlin, you will NOT put yourself in a position where you can be recognised or caught. With any luck we can pull a few MLE out of that blasted hallway. Harry, you coordinate similar efforts inside Hogwarts.

Kingsley, Dorcas, Caradoc, you'll meet the twins and Lee at the shack. Be ready for a fight.

[alt_kingsley]

We're ready and in place, Alice.

Mrs Longbottom,

This isn't working. Nothing's making any of the Ministry people leave, nor Professor Dolohov.

Auror Lestrange is leaving but no one else, what.

If any of you can get to the tunnel to the Shrieking Shack, you can Apparate away from there. It's not under Hogwarts' protections.

Everyone,

Hydra just came out. She only had a moment but she told me that Draco's being held in Professor Lestrange's office. With Auror Mulciber and Mr Nott. They're going to try to make him confess for immunity. Hydra's being asked to legilimise Hermione so they'll know just what to have him say.

Reckon I could be confused cos I've just now noticed this rabble, but what's he meant to confess to, exacrly? What's the Nott kid got them pegged for?

[alt_justin]

Mr Macnair,

Hermione's accused of seducing Draco and enticing him to teach her magic.

Apparently Teddy has been compiling rather a lot of evidence. I gather much of it's circumstantial but--perhaps there's more to it.

And they've found Hermione's wand, what.

Do you think Mr Malfoy will hold firm?

I have every confidence in him.
