And as he is extolling the virtues of wizards over muggles, lucius Malfoy's eyes close with the splatter of a liquid in his face. When he opens his eyes he notices that lord Voldemort has half his head... Missing and the liquid was his blood and brain matter. Some powerful wizardry at play. Lord Voldemort died mid sentence and they never heard the spell or incantation being cast.

800 yards away the sniper from a black ops team radios X-Ray down. The rest of the team springs into action gunning down the dark wizards before they have time to react.

Lucius has no time to grab his cane or mutter a word as a clear plastic bag is ziptied around his face and he is knocked unconscious. When he comes to he is muffled trapped inside a tower of rubbery wheels. Car tires the muggles call it. He can't speak and he can't move an inch. He can cast spells without speaking and he remembers one simple spell that he used to terrorise his muggle neighbours with. It manifests the greatest nightmares in his victims mind. It is harmless but it should scare these muggles away. Giving him time to gather his wits and attempt to cast more complex magic and escape. He sees what nightmares haunt his victims too as a bit of backlash...

When he casts the spell on the leader of the group he is transported to Fallujah. He sees the rocket coming to this all terrain jeep and the explosion propels the leader of the group out... Unharmed. He sees the rest of the group of men (a squad the leader's mind tells him) burning to death. One of them trying to reach for the leader... His flesh burning and falling from the bone as he releases a silent scream as his lungs are scorched and he cannot draw breath anymore...

The leader of the group just stares at the scene in perfect apathy. The horror, too gruesome and too raw for his mind to comprehend.

And back in reality Lucius sees the man looking at him with a vacant amused expression... Lucius realizes that he cannot manifest his biggest nightmare because that is all this man sees when he closes his eyes... Lucius has exerted a lot of cruelty in his life but this man is a true monster his humanity lost between Fallujah and Baghdad .The man tells lucius Malfoy that the others were killed on the spot because they had to be but that he, he is the message.

They douse him in petrol and set the tires on fire as lucius' screams fill the night air. They kick the burning pyre down the hill into the dead eater's secret lair that was tracked and discovered using drones, satellite imagery and modern surveillance. The piercing cries of Lucius drew the remaining death eaters out and they can only look in horror as the charred corpse of one of their own just burns itself out. Message understood.
