She was proven correct as a dozen or so wizards in death-eater garbs attacked the gathering, spell-fire coursing through the forest as they came into view of the people, aurors tried to rush in to the situation, but the panic amongst the crowd created enough chaos to render them almost stuck towards the back. Amelia, Rufus and all the Hogwarts staff started returning fire, Harry too leapt into action, Ginny quietly slipping through the crowd back towards the castle. Ron helped Harry but was soon caught in the thigh by a stray cutting hex and was out of action for the time being. The Death-eaters finally huddled close to each other trading spell-fire.
