Whatever It Takes... [HP X MCU (AU) Fanfic]

~~Eurostar Terminal, London~~

Sveta was leading a group of five werewolves, having fun, butchering these clueless Muggles, but she felt like something was wrong. This wasn't the first time she was doing something like this so she was pretty familiar with how the people would react before she tore into them.

However, these people… These people felt wrong. The way these people reacted before she tore into them felt wrong. It felt kind of bland and forced. To be honest, her instincts were telling her to escape and she would have loved to do that, but she was not the one who was calling the shots.

It was Fenrir who was calling the shots and honestly, it would be wrong to put all the blame at his feet. The Dark Lord wanted them here, so they were here… They were aware of how much heat they were going to bring down on top of them with this attack, but it was not like they had any other choice. 

Defying the Dark Lord would mean death and if they wanted to survive, they needed to do this… However, the moment, Aurors spilled out of the corners and attacked them, she knew they were fucked. The Aurors had set up an ambush for them and they weren't alone. She could see members of Lost Garden drop from the roofs.

Now she finally understood why these people felt off in the first place… These people were just bait to draw them out, but she never expected the Ministry to be so ruthless… 

"Grindelwald…" She heard someone mutter beside her. She turned her head to see who spoke, only to find one of the oldest members of their pack, staring at a pale man in complete horror. 

Her breath hitched in fear. "That's Grindelwald?" Sveta asked, feeling afraid like never before. 

"Yeah, That's him… There is no way I would forget someone as memorable as him" The werewolf admitted and Sveta felt her mind go blank in fear. She was afraid of the man as any man should be. She was brought up hearing the stories of his horror and now the man was standing right in front of them.

If he decided to butcher them, then they were as good as dead…

Fenrir wanted Sveta to make contact with Potter through Lost Garden, but she no longer thought it would be possible, considering they would probably die here. Her fear only increased when she heard him call out Fenrir and Dolohov while ignoring everyone else. 

A foolish Death Eater tried to use this opportunity to strike down Grindelwald, but the former Dark Lord killed the fool without even looking at him. "Sveta, we need to get the fuck out of here or we are going to be butchered!" Someone finally managed to break her out of her downward spiral when they started to shake her.

Sveta quickly shook her head to clear her mind… Yes, yes, finding a way to escape was more important right now. With Grindelwald himself gunning for Fenrir, he was as good as dead, and anything less than a miracle wasn't going to save him. She could mourn him later, but right now, she was in charge.

"The gates are sealed. We are not leaving that way" Sveta growled out in frustration. She needed to come up with something quick since her team was not subtle, considering all of them were transformed at this moment.

"...I might know a way…" The youngest member of her team suggested.

"What is it?" Sveta snapped impatiently. They didn't have much time.

"We could use the sewers to escape, but we won't be able to take too many with us or anyone besides ourselves as it would draw attention" The boy hurriedly explained and Sveta froze at his words. Sveta was not a genius, but even she could understand what the boy was implying. He wanted them to escape without alerting anyone.

"How dare you!" Another member of her team snarled at the boy in anger, but before he could attack the boy, Sveta stopped him.

It would be better than nothing if it was just them… While it hurt her to make the call, it wasn't like she could come up with anything better in the meantime and the chances of their survival were getting thinner and thinner with each passing moment. Sveta decided to think about the children as she decided to make her call.

"We leave without alerting anyone" Sveta finally made the call.

"How could-" The same man tried to protest in outrage, but she stopped him.

"Think about the children" Svate whispered under her breath, but she was loud enough for her team. All of their faces turned grave at her words. They realized that Sveta was right. Those kids were not going to survive for a month out there without them, considering they were a part of Fenrir Greyback's pack. 

If someone realized that they were a part of the infamous Fenrir Greyback's pack, then they were going to be either executed on the spot, or they would be put on a rigged trial where they would get either sentenced to death or life in some prison, most probably Azkaban, considering they were in Britain right now.

The fact that they were going to be sentencing minor children was going to be conveniently ignored. They were werewolves, that would be enough for most of the people to put them to death… The fact that they ate people was simply a bonus and nobody was going to question why they did that.

"Alright" This time, everyone agreed unanimously to escape without alerting anyone.

Without wasting any time, the youngest member of their team started to look for a manhole or something like that to escape. It took them only a minute to find one. "They are escaping!!" That was when they were finally noticed by an Auror and almost everyone became aware of their actions.

"Go, I will hold everyone back" The oldest member of their team declared with a determined look on his face. Sveta wanted to protest, but she simply gave him a respectful nod before jumping into the manhole after the others. Moments later, a couple of Werewolves jumped at him, but he held them back. 

"Let us go, Renard!" Someone screamed, but the man now known as Renard refused to give in. The Aurors descended on top of them like a ton of bricks, but Renard still refused to give up. He was struck by Stunning Charms, Cutting Charms, and Blasting Curses, but he held on before one of the members of Lost Garden finally struck him down with a Killing Curse.

Meanwhile, Sveta and the rest of her team were running through the sewers like their lives depended on it, and it literally did… They were feeling miserable, considering they were running through the sewers with their enhanced sense of smell, but all of them were aware of the stakes, so they refused to give up.

"Wait! They are going to catch up with us!" All of a sudden their youngest member exclaimed as he came to a stop. "We need to bring down the tunnel" He added after a moment and just a nod from Sveta was enough for the team. They quickly pulled out their Wands from the arm guards and started to cast Blasting Curses at the tunnel. 

A collapsed tunnel was not going to stop Wixen, but it was going to buy them time and they simply needed to escape the Wards to Disapparate… The tunnel finally collapsed and they were on the run again. A minute later, they were out of the Wards and as soon as they were out, they sighed in relief before Disapparating…
