| | Azkaban On an island in the middle of the North Sea lies the Unplottable fortress that is Azkaban prison. With the creator of the fortress, Ekrizdis, long gone, the Ministry of Magic began using the island as a detention facility in 1718 and continues to use it as such to this very day. There once was an infestation of Dementors that once roamed free here; however, after a number of mass breakouts due to the creatures revolting and joining Lord Voldemort, Aurors have been taking shifts to guard the prison in an effort to prevent another mass breakout from occurring.
The island itself is surrounded by iron walls and has a very minimalistic layout, containing a burial ground, for bodies unclaimed, and a tall tower. The tower is dark and contains hundreds of cells for criminals of varying sentences. Most of the prison's cells are big enough to hold two to four people. Those with long-term sentences, however, are placed in small high-security cells, which are bound with the most complex of enchantments.
Visitors, typically respectable Ministry employees and an inmate's immediate family, need to be pre-approved and then go through numerous security checks upon arrival. From there, visitors are seated in a drab visiting room where a number of Aurors stand guard. Prisoners arrive wearing charmed straightjackets and are promptly returned to their cells when the time allotted for a visit is up.

| Sardines ♥ BHB ♥ Dallie ♥ Grumpy ♥ MY SUN AND STARS ♥ i love julia Evangeline had also been feeling very stressed lately, but it had nothing to with the job. She had always been good about separating work life and personal life, but sometimes it was difficult when your partner at work was also your life partner. But when the news broke that Azkaban had been breached and that prisoners had escaped, Evangeline couldn't help but look at her husband with a look filled with gratitude at the fact that they had not yet had a baby.
In fact, the mission to sweep and secure Azkaban sent an exciting current of adrenaline through her and she was right behind Alexa when they arrived at the scene. There was much to be done and it wouldn't be easy, so they needed to get started right away, so when Alexa laid out the options, Evie stepped forward. "Angelo and I will secure the stragglers," she volunteered quickly, knowing their teamwork would allow them to complete the task efficiently.
As for the Warden? "He was either in on it or he's dead." Either way, someone need to look for him. |

Jemma McCrae Minister's Office x5 x3
| Shoe!Girl │ Rebel Ravie │ Confundus Queen │ RP Addict There had definitely been a time where Bryony hadn’t minded dialing down on her active Auror duties, namely right after Sophia’s birth even though she had still reported into the office everyday as usual. Now, however, she was finding herself nearly wishing for the slow time again. After making sure that Sophia was going to be safe, to the point of leaving notice that Braedon should either bring their daughter to her parents or to Chase in Italy if things got really hairy, she’d gathered up everything and gotten herself over to the island to report in for duty. There were way too many worst-case scenarios to defy any orders, after all. This was what she’d signed up for. “I’ll help Emilia with the sweep,” the blonde had replied, after Alexa had laid out her orders. With a glance toward Evangeline, she’d had the thought that it was something to look into as well. “I agree with her. If anything, someone was involved with this on the inside. If it wasn’t the warden, someone else.” At which point her associate was still likely accurate. The warden was dead, but then that could be the case either way. Enough of the prisoners they’d put in here were deadly enough they’d likely get rid of anyone who might flip on them.

Originally Posted by Felixir If Jake thought he was feeling stressed before today, it was nothing compared to how things had been since the message had reached the ministry. A mass breakout from Azkaban was certainly enough to get the heart racing. It was fortunate that Jake had long since learnt to thrive on stress. It was very much unfortunate that Merlin knew how many escapees were now at large.
Fighting the almost overwhelming urge to send an immediate patronus to Becca and tell her to get their younger children out of school and back to their extremely secure home (the kids are fine, we can't afford days off, the kids are fine, we can't afford days off), Jake stared at the near desolation of Azkaban, while listening to Alexa's instructions.
Right... right. "I'll focus on looking into that breach," he said to the group at large, when boss lady was done and addressing the Aurors who had been on duty. But yeah, just announcing it so they didn't all go off doing the same thing, and leave certain tasks unattended. Also spoken for the benefit of anyone who would join him. Stupid to do it alone, given the circumstances.
But also stupid to delay for very long, so once Jake knew he'd have at least one person along with him, he set off to investigate. No need to draw his wand, that hadn't been holstered since the ministry. Azkaban had been breeched.
Simon didn’t have to be a former auror to know that was a veeeery bad thing. Too many dark wizards and witches of all sorts resided in the wizarding prison and many were not really supposed to ever see the light of day one on one, let alone enmass. His essential tasks done for the day, he was all for dropping the rest of things he had been planning for the time being as ordered. Only a pause for the briefing with the rest of the department before heading over to the dark imposing structure that was Azkaban, ready with wand drawn.
Although its current picture didn’t all look imposing with the blasted holes everywhere and the dead and overall mess thrown everywhere. Taking note of everything that was noticeable from the get-go, Simon also paid attention to what Alexa was asking for everyone to handle as well where everyone was heading themselves as he debated which move to make himself. In the end following towards Jake as he mentioned focusing on the breach itself. “Sounds like a good place to work,” he agreed. “The sooner it gets determined how it happened, the sooner we can get the wards and such back up and secure." Which after all was his area of expertise, his training going right to work, scanning his surroundings for what could be a red flag.

| Baguette | there is no D in my name | TRAITORclaw | Queenie of Narnia One moment, Penelope was having a relatively calm morning, taking a brief second to reread a letter Ivy had sent her and Zep a few days ago. Her first kid at Hogwarts, and Penelope already missed her even more than she'd expected.
But the next moment, that calm was shattered.
A breach in Azkaban. Criminals escaping. They had to go now.
She was ready in an instant, arriving with the others. A chill ran down her spine, partly from the icy wind raging around the island and partly from the unsettling state of the prison's walls.
Merlin. This was...
There were no words.
Penelope scanned their surroundings as she listened to Alexa's orders. And she agreed with Evangeline and Bryony's assessments - however this had happened, someone on the inside was a likely accomplice, either the warden himself...or maybe even one of the Aurors who were supposed to be guarding this place. Who knew? Anything was possible at this point until they gained more information.
And to get that info, they needed to secure Azkaban as soon as possible. Find out what in Merlin's name had happened. "I'll go with you two," she said, quickly following Jake and Simon.

| Dem Carters | even 🕊🕊 have pride | | Expecto PAWtronum 🐈 | U-NA-GI Circe indeed. And Merlin, too. Not to mention all the little epitaphs Ronan was reeling off in both English and French as he followed his coworkers to Azkaban. Just chaos. Honestly, it was the type of environment that he thrived in (just look at the state of his personal life). But the amount of paperwork this would eventually involve….he did not look forward to that.
Putting that thought aside for now, the Auror silently followed the instructions of his boss, cringing at the sight of what appeared to be someone’s arm. Just their arm. Careful not to disturb the scene any more than what was absolutely necessary as he moved. Who’s turn was it to be at the prison? And had they made it out of the explosion?
And speaking of the warden, since it appeared no one else was going to ”I’ll look for the warden,” he said, straightening from where he’d crouched to check something and heading further into the now crumbling building.

A small group of straggling dunderheads came barreling through one of the hallways, kicking stones and snarling as they went. Nothing more than petty thieves by some's standards, the group of Dark thugs were feeling some sort of way about not having received wands and were determined to get their hands on one.
Thankfully for them, there was a group of people up ahead.
"O'er 'ere!" one mountain of a man barked as he knelt to pick up a hefty bit of rubble the CHUCKED it ahead at one of the Ministry's people that had arrived on scene. "'Elp me w'th all th's!"
Several of his compadres joined in the fray, throwing whatever stone and metal they could get their hands on at the group in hopes of disarming.

He stayed silent when she volunteered them, just giving a single nod, but otherwise he was scanning their surroundings, taking it all in, and going over his mental map of the place from his stint here as a trainee, and ignoring that severed arm. He had seen worse. Quote:

Yes. He and Evangeline would secure the stragglers. And if it gave the the team time to reinstate the wards and Ronan time to get free and find that warden (if there were anything left of him), so much the better.
And they needed those wards up, so that if there were any stragglers here who could do wandless magic, they wouldn't be able to cast.

| Has permission to Off his own YATI which is who Torrance took the wand from. Mom says I have no sense of direction, so I packed my bags and right. HOLY CRAP!!!
It was absolute madness here insane that this even happened. Max security his butt!! He didn't leave his cell during the initial uprising. Whatever the chaos was Torrance wasn't aware of it nor was he ever given any hint of it happening. So this job was way above his station among the other prisoners here. His cell was one of the many blasted open though.
His nature lead him to step out, but he didn't follow any of the chaos in destroying and escaping Azkaban. The Lion in him set out from his wing once it was clear of any chaos. Only 5 minutes had passed since then so he would need to be cautious. He went into the pockets of one of the guards who was cold and unmoving. Or...he at least looked like a guard. He watched him pass by his cell earlier that day following another Auror as though he was his shadow. Something he knew from his Uncle, and for knowing Matt Solo. Aurors usually carried two wands. Especially if they got disarmed in a fight. he found this poor sod's spare wand.
Torrance then checked the person that was with the one he took the wand from. Looking for a pulse he found one and slowly dragged them into the nearest blown upon cell. Using his stolen wand, Torrance applied everything he learned from university healing them of their injuries from the cells blasting open. Once he finished Tory left this cell as well and turned the corner.

She was pleased she didn't have to go doling out the roles. It had been enough to say what needed doing and having her team fill in the roles on their own. Lex nodded at them when they volunteered for each, trusting they'd get the job done right. "If he's not dead, he'll be wishing he was." Lex muttered in response to comments about the warden. Something like this was hard to get past. There would need to be an investigation. He would need to be found competent again for the role, if not found guilty. This was massive. The massive nature made it problematic beyond the outbreak. This went further up and she didn't want to think about it.
The loud shout drew her attention from the Aurors who were briefing her on the situation. Stragglers? Unarmed stragglers if the rock hurling was any indication of things. She watched them through the shield Toussaint had cast.
Hardly a moment to focus on anything because in the next second, the same aurors were yelling and pointing to the guy (Torrence) moving about. He was the one? The one they'd spoken of just now who'd been ordered to surrender the wand he possessed and return to his cell? That made him just as much an escapee as the ones hurling rocks from the other side. "Apprehend him with the others." She ordered. Failure to comply put him at odds with the law. If he wanted to help, he'd have done what he was told. This was a prison break. A chaotic prison break and he was a prisoner. All he did was add to that chaos. Prisoners did NOT get wands. He could've been biding his time. There were a few things he could be doing. The only way to prove his virtue was to follow orders and prove he wasn't an insubordinate threat. He'd failed to do that and was therefore a threat. "Carter, you'll be needed here. I'll go find the warden." She nodded to the on duty aurors, a silent gesture for them to take her there but before she left, "If anything comes up, send a patronus." She'd come back but doubted they needed help dealing with this sort.

UuuuuuuuhWELP he heard them all and watched them all appear very quickly. Part of Torrance was hoping for just a little more time to do what he was doing. He thought he could do a quiet sweep looking for anymore hurt individuals.
The other part of him was glad they were here. Those escapees between the both of them would have gone right back his way if the Aurors hadn't come this way when they did. Torrance looked around quickly among any of the ones who were spanning out and going different way. He wasn't sure if Matt was within this group.
None-The-Less, Torrrance crouched low and started backing up....back up back up backing up. Silent and not wanting to draw attention to his direct...
AH HELL. Torrance kept backing into the blown open cell that the unconscious Auror was he previously tending to was in. He tucked his wand into the back of his trousers and waited to see who would show up to him first.

Lex made her way over to the warden's office with the on duty aurors, her wand out and ready as she went. It was likely that whatever and whoever had done this was already gone, having potentially broken out whoever they wanted, but caution was never a bad thing. Constant vigilance.
Her team would round up the criminals just fine. She wanted every criminal back in a cell if they were still on the premises, then they'd scour London and spiral outward from there. This was going to be a long day.
After checking the surrounding area, an auror stepped forward to get the door open to the warden's office. Not a one of them let their guard down, half expecting someone to run out. When that didn't happen, the small team slowly entered the room. "Oi, Warden? The hell's going on here?"
Where was he? Were they really looking for a body? The room looked empty but, "Check every inch."

She had been waiting for the right moment, lurking in a corner as she heard the guards and ministry aurors. A smirk crossing her face as she thought about the ones that were supposed to be the best of the best not evening knowing all she had plotted and planned. The voice she was waiting for came closer and Simone lifted her wand.
As the woman she had been waiting for entered Simone flicked her wand and a think smoke filled the room causing anyone to be unable to see and while the distraction was in place Simone didn't take long to get behind the department head, stun her, and apparate them both away.

Unbeknownst to Alexa Cambridge, these aurors on duty had not been on the side of Law Enforcement.
It was a double cross she'd admittedly not seen coming until that split second, barely a second when their expressions changed. Before she could react, there was smoke and everything went dark. What happened next, she couldn't say. The Department Head was out. The aurors of course, waited a moment to recompose themselves before rushing back out to rejoin the others. They already knew the story they would tell.

Evangeline looked up as the rubble was being thrown from the loose prisoners. Right after Angelo threw up his shield to protect them from the falling objects, Evangeline shot a spell at the prisoners, binding their wrists behind their backs. That would take care of them for now. Then she led herself and her husband through the corridors, restoring as many wards as she could as quickly as she could, and securing any loose prisoners on their way. Quote:

Evangeline eventually came onto the scene of a prisoner with an unconscious coworker of theirs on the ground. She pointed her wand at the prisoner, her peripherals on the downed YATI. "Hands up," she ordered toward the prisoner, inching towards Bradley to check his vitals. "Search him," the auror then said to her partner. They needed to secure him so they could join the others and get the trainee some medical attention. Assuming the prisoner hadn't already killed him. |

| mention of Bryony with permission from miss Kristin! elephant-astic•wanderlust•stay in the ninedaaays the original Taco Belle•look at the flowers✿ Angelo's shield had bought Emilia the time to slip off in the opposite direction of the chaos and conduct the sweep she'd promised. Sticking close to Bryony, the junior auror helped to subdue any prisoners they encountered along the way, and do what she could to put the wards back up. Her heart was racing, but she was managing to keep her nerves in check, which she was thankful for. She just hoped the others were having more luck figuring out how something like this could've happened. It was an impressive feat considering. "We should probably circle back, catch up with the others?" She suggested quietly, noting the quiet, contained area they were now in.

Right. Ronan couldn't decide rather to be offended that Alexa didn't trust him enough to let him search for the warden or honored that he was deemed valuable enough to be needed out here. Either or, now wasn't really the time to dwell on these things; there was a figurative mess to clean up. Turning his attention to the rubble, he started sifting through it carefully, looking for any bodies or injured. Still though, he did keep an eye on the door to the warden's office. "Oi you two, where's the boss?" he called out to the on-duty aurors when he saw them hurrying out of the office. Something about the situation was setting off the alarm bells in his mind. She should've been there with them, warden or no warden.

| Yeah I broke that mirror, so what? ll NOT backward ll Official Gryfferin ll Lemon's favourite Out of the warden's office, the aurors made their way back down a corridor and out to yard where they had left the bulk of the auror team. On the way back, they kept their wands out just in case.
Spotting the oncoming escapees, they'd chosen a different route back down a back passageway that had them returning from the opposite direction. No sooner than they arrived they were already being interrogated, as if the Department Head couldn't simply have sent them back to help while she spoke with the warden.
One was tempted to pitch this story, just to shut the eager beaver up BUT they had a narrative to push so... "Cambridge is gone! We didn't see what happened. It was all so fast! The moment we stepped into the office, smoke then poof!!! We gotta find her, we gotta do something!!"
There, panic.

| breach investigation~ (being vague in case anyone branched off) Lovely™ | Captain Hurted | Ariana's Bane | Resident Antagonist | Unparalleled Delight The escaped prisoners and their projectiles had been only the slightest of obstacles, handled swiftly by Angelo and Evangeline, which in turn gave Jake and the others the chance to head on out and investigate that breach. Moving through the prison - quickly, because speed was of the essence, but not so quickly that it was considered a rush job - and casting an assessing eye over the evidence of explosions, one thought kept coming back to him: no obvious point of entry. Jake was no blast pattern expert (was that... a thing? ... it was a thing) but... it looked like a lot of outward explosions to him. "I haven't seen anything to indicate anyone forced their way in..." he mused aloud, looking over yet another hole in the outer wall, and using the opportunity to throw up another spell to contribute to the replacement of the protective wards that had evidently fallen. Or... been removed. Because... well. ... Well.
It would have been a bad idea to actively repair the blast areas, in case someone who was an explosions expert did their thing later when examining the scene. Instead, Jake had placed a number of stasis charms on whatever looked like evidence (read: most of the building), and threw up some magical barriers across the holes in the outer walls. Those would act as forcefields for the time being, though once the remaining prisoners were secured, that might be less of an issue. Jake also, as Alexa had instructed, made note of the damages he had seen. There were... a lot of notes.
Eventually, all that was left to do was report back with the list of damages and other findings. Jake was not particularly looking forward to expressing his opinion that the evidence (and lack thereof) was indeed pointing towards an inside job, like Evangeline had suggested, but obviously it was necessary. Part of the job. Back to Alexa it was, then.

| Breech investigation part 2 and back Toothless - Napoleon of Crime - Gryffinclaw - Owl Emissary - Pirate Auror - DoctorDonna Simon had come to the same conclusion as he examined the outer wreckage of Azkaban off to one side of his companions…the explosion had come from the inside and not the outside. Which meant that at least part of the trouble had been caused without help from free assistance in the wizarding world on the other side of the normally very secure prison walls. That didn’t bode well for the auror-turned-security man’s bad feeling about the state of things. Prisoners with the ability to create this much damage on their own was a verrrrry bad thing.
Hearing the faint sounds of scuffling and the handling of it by the rest of their teams, he went to work adding some shield and protective enchantments to the various holes to secure for the moment, knowing they’d likely have to go more in depth once certain measures were taken. A whole new web of spells would be needed to fix this mess in its entirety, Simon grumbling at the thought. The man eventually doubling back towards the entrance way where they had begun. “What a mess…” he mused with a deep sigh, spotting Jake coming from another corridor.
