The morning fog had yet to lift completely giving the area by the Thames a muffled and dreary feel. Hortence Hatcher was used to the fog though and gave it little thought as she made her way to her sister's house. This was a weekly task that Hortence had for the past 20 years taken as a family duty that even though she disliked knew she must. 

Her sister Glennis had to remain hidden and it was her own fault she needed to because of her poor choices in her youth; Glennis had been a Death Eater. She'd claimed she only joined because her husband had forced her to join. But it was questioning by Aurors about her sister's where a bouts had revealed that Glennis had been there at Hogwarts and that she may have killed children. Glennis had of course denied having done any of that saying the worst she'd done was supply a safe house for Death eaters on the run. Hortence of course hadn't really believed her sister completely innocent but couldn't bring herself to think of her sister as a murder and that's why she protected her even now. 

She was almost there when she heard a noise ahead and before she knew what was happening three men dressed all in odd black clothing were on her and she was helpless. 

Two hours later Aurors of the special divison were gathered at the scene of the latest hit of the Snake Hunters. Like all the other attacks the victim was dead with evidence that she'd been a Death Eater and evidence of her crime strewn all around her. The thing that made this strike different was the witch identified as the dead one's sister, she was still alive. Some of the younger investigators when they heard they had a survivor had rejoiced but not the chief inspector. That's why when it was found the survivor was useless as a witness because her memories had been obliviated he had merely sighed telling his subordinates to take her to St. Mungo's.

It was as he was preparing to wrap things up that a young Auror hurried up saying that they may have a witness to men leaving the scene that he grew excited.
