Part Two
Chapter Two:
Love and War:
It was the turn of the century and Xander had moved to Britain to avoid the mess MACUSA had going on in the US. Queen Victoria was stepping down for her son, Edward, to take her place. And the minor depression was now easing.
Eugenics was on the rise in both worlds as a new philosophy that was spreading that spoke of the superiority of the White Europeans and everyone else should be under them. Including sterilization of those deemed unworthy or outright death.
This was spread throughout Europe and Britain’s magical elite like a wildfire. With the magical elite suddenly coming up with books like the Sacred Twenty-Eight to prove their worth in society. And the Head of the Blackmore Family known as the Black of the Black’s was doing a breeding experiment amongst the non-pureblooded student of the only boarding school in the country. And getting away with it. Till one of the girl’s non magical fathers shot him down only to be executed himself for killing a pureblood.
Xander made sure those that voted for his execution suffered explosive accidents while shopping.
At this time, his account manager gave over a sealed note with a two-headed man on the letterhead letting him know who it was from. New orders to take out the two lovers to be found in Godric’s Hollow Wales. And a date and time.
Arriving just as the men were fighting and spells were flowing, one hitting a young girl who was trying to get them to stop. Dropping her. And that was the end of both of them with skulls shattered, from the hidden sniper.
The younger brother called the authorities but that was all. He didn’t even claim his older brother’s body from them and let them cremate it with his lover. And spread their ashes together in the winds. He moved away after graduation never to be heard from again.
Not long after these tensions built up in Prussia till finally, they made the excuse that Serbia needed them to invade, and that started WWI with Britain asking Xander for weapon designs.
He gave them the first AK-47’s. And better artillery weapons. Kevlar and tungsten steel.
Only problem was they had a command staff still fighting Napoleon and not the war they were supposed to be fighting. But then again, so was France.
The allies won, if but barely even with their advantages, and life went on. He had been given new orders and the Gaunt’s had had an accident in the fireplace, removing that blight from the land directly next to the Riddle family to buy from the county to extend their land with. And nothing was ever said about the death of the Magical line of Slytherin again.
And if Xander went a little out of his way on his trip to Switzerland by going through Germany to see some men meeting in a pub in the mid 1920’s? And if those men had an accident with too much drink and suffered brain damage from the wrong liquor? Oh well. Xander owed Willow’s great-grandfather a debt for babysitting him in his time of need. Not getting sent to the camps by the Nazi’s was a good payment as far as he was concerned. And the Nazi Party not coming into power at all was even better.
He was in an excellent mood as he caught the train to Switzerland.
