I paled. Yes, trying to attack her had been a bad idea. A very very bad idea.

My jaw dropped. "Your people are run by terrorists!? Why the hell aren't you in hiding!? How can anyone let them be in control!?" I barked at him, knowing I was being a little harsh, but remembering by own father's reign of terror over the other nations, stealing children, killing all the airbenders.

"What do you think we're here for? If James is seen then we're in some serious trouble. This place is protected by all sorts of wards and protections. Anyway, we didn't let them into control. They TOOK control." I could feel my voice rising, and took a deep breath to calm myself.

"So...the attack was just a test for terrorists? All those people...killed for no reason?"

Maybe I was still tired from before, but I started feeling sick to my stomach. Oh gods! "So, do they ever just capture people, or do they always...kill them?"

"Sometimes. It depends on how important the person is, really. They're out to capture James's son, and a few others. I might end up in there too, but it depends on just how much Bellatrix wants to kill me. But honestly, death would be better."

I could feel my hands getting hot at the thought of all those people, dead for nothing, and their families never even knowing why because of this stupid secret society of people. It sickened me. And these men were hiding. Sure they may have intervened with this attack, but there were still probably dozens dead just today.
"What are you doing to stop it? Can you get in contact with people who aren't terrorists and fight back?" I practically growled, wondering if I could keep my bending hidden if their answer was one I didn't like.

"I'm doing that, too. There's a resistance group, but we're vastly outnumbered and they'll simply pick us off, one by one. Besides, they can always spread out that we're the bad guys, not them, and then we have the whole country after our blood."

I started to feel sick. The thought of my friends - especially Hiro - being tortured...NO! Why? Why did this have to happen?

Did Remus just say their world was under attack from terrorists? This....this was not something I was used to. Homicide, crime, mob bosses--not terrorists. Where was Frost where you needed him?
"Bad PR huh?" I asked as Remus said that there were more of the bad guys than there were the good. "Ever thought of going to Scotland Yard? That protection might be worth something."
If not, I'd gladly call up a few of my friends from Boston PD and have them get their asses in gear. I felt bad for the guys and wanted to help.

"You could say that, yes. And if you're willing to ring up Scotland Yard and get a couple hundred innocent police officers to go and greet the maniac you saw earlier, then go ahead. I guarantee there won't be any that live to tell the tale."

"But surely if they are committing acts such as what we just saw, the rest of your people would realise that THEY are the problem and not your resistence group? What is your group even doing against them anyway? Do you have plans?" I asked, feeling very frustrated at the lack of action going on. I was so used to physical fights, not these political ones. All I knew is that I wanted those terrorist scum to burn.

I couldn't help but shudder at the idea of hundreds of dead police officers. It wasn't a pleasant image, let me tell you. I listened to what Zuko was saying, and inwardly agreed with the questions he was asking. How could people who opposed those manics be so overwhelmed?
"Why aren't there more of you?" I asked Remus. "After all, there've got to be family members of the dead who want revenge for what happened to them."

I gritted my teeth. "You don't seem to understand. If you show even the slightest sign that you don't approve of what's going on, they kill you and your whole family. Others are thrown into the wizard prison, which is probably worse than death anyway. People are scared. Those who do resist are made examples of, killed, tortured...four of the order have been thrown into wizard prison in the last week. They have control over everything, even the school, and we can't do anything to stop them. All my best friends have been killed, I had to watch one of them die, and the leader of the order died about 6 weeks back. I could be going the same way, and so could my wife, and everyone we care about!" My voice rose and I clenched my wand tightly in my hand, fury building. There was a crash across the room and a glass shattered, making me breathe. I needed to calm down.

I jumped as the glass shattered. I was not expecting that, not from someone who (for some reason) reminded me very much of Maura. Maura always kept her cool, even when dealing with Dr. Pike (the most anal Medical Examiner one will ever meet).
I couldn't believe what I was hearing. Thrown in prison just for opposing the other side? Killing, torture? Control of the school? Was I in Britain or Nazi Germany?
"What can I do to help?" The words were out of my mouth before my brain had time to process what I said. My blood was boiling as Remus continued to speak and I just wanted to do SOMETHING!

I felt completely useless just standing there, unable to help anyone with anything. I didn't understand everything, but what I did was enough to make me sick. In all honesty, I just wanted to go home, but I doubted that would be possible now. No, not without Hiro and the others. If they were still alive, that is. "I want to help, too!" I said, without thinking. "My friends are either dead or worse, and I won't just take that sitting down! I don't care how strong they are, I'll fight them!"

"There isn't really much we can do anymore." I sighed. "James' son is the only one who can end this, and he's refusing to let anybody know of what he needs to do. I appreciate the offer, though."

"You say James' son is the only one that can end it?" I asked. "Wait. One: how old is this boy and Two: can the other side block bullets?"
I was very tempted to just hand over my gun and allow Remus the chance to put a few .38 caliber's through Bellatrix's head.

"Harry is just 17 a couple of weeks ago, and yes. Thats if you can shoot one before they kill you. There are a ton of ways to heal wounds using magic anyway, so it wouldn't have an effect, I'm afraid."

I'm replying because this thread seems like it was forgotten about...
I gaped at him for a moment in sheer disbelief. "Wait, what? You're sending a kid to fight your battles? Against those psychos? What the hell!" I screamed at him. "That's just - no that's wrong!"

I stared in silence as Remus stated that Harry (whom I assumed to be James' son--not that Remus gave a last name at all) was only seventeen. Actually, I didn't hear the rest; I was a little peeved.
The pink haired man began screaming at Remus, and I had to admit I agreed with him. "He's not yet an adult. What makes you think he's the only one that can end this? You've got time before he turns 18, you know!"

"We have no other choice, Harry is the only one who can kill him, the only one who stands a chance. Anyway, weren't you saying a few minutes ago that we should be doing anything we can to stop him?"
