They were enjoying dinner, or at least Hermione and her parents were – Evan was being grilled by Peter: "Where did you meet my daughter? When? What do you do? What branch of the Service are you in?" etc. Just as they were finishing the main dish, Evan got a feeling of eminent danger. Sensei had told him to extend the times he used Haragei – not to send it out as far as he could, but just be centered and open to Haragei. "Dobby, Winky, we need your help. Hermione, I believe we have some unwanted company. Winky, can you pop Mr. and Mrs. Granger out?" he asked.
"No master H..Evan sir" she replied. "Bad wizards put up wards" "We have the expandable trunk upstairs" said Hermione. "Great. Dobby – get the trunk from upstairs. Put it in the garage, then put fireproof and imperturbable charms on it. Winky, get Hermione and her parents into the trunk quickly! Hermione – you can do magic, they can't. Stay with your parents to protect them." He added. In the meantime, he pulled over the sofa on one side; stood the heavy dining room table on a second side. The wall common with the kitchen was on the third side, while the wall common with the garage was at his back. With one hand he pulled out his pistol (as a Royal Marine, he was required to carry it with him at all times.), and with the other hand he summoned all the forks and knives in the kitchen. He vanished a tiny section of wall (common with the kitchen) so he could have line of sight with the sliding patio door.
Dobby popped back in. Evan had Dobby place an imperturbable charm on the patio door, windows, the walls around him, and on the garage wall. In the meantime, Evan was wandlessly transfiguring the forks to Tetsubushi (tetrahedral-shaped sharp tacks). He then tossed half in front of the front door, and the other half in front of the patio door. Evan then dialed 999 for emergency services. As soon as he heard a connection he yelled "This is Midshipman Fenix of the Royal Marines. I am under attack by terrorists at 8 Heathgate, Hampstead Garden Suburb, London. I am in need of assistance immediately. Number of assailants unknown – they are dressed in black robes and white masks. I am holed up inside the residence, civilians present. I am armed with a handgun. I am leaving the phone on."
Not more than three minutes had passed since he first felt danger when a boom was heard from the front door. He ducked down and prepared the various knives in piles based on size. Additional booms were heard from the front door and patio door. As Evan was looking around for other things to use in his defense, he saw the floor of the fireplace lined with Fire Glass (pebble-sized chips of glass, used for decorative purposes). He quickly summoned all the Fire Glass to a pile in front of him, splitting them up into four mounds. He had Dobby transfigure two mounds into glass dust, while he left two mounds untouched.
"Where are those emergency services!" He yelled at the phone. "My defenses can only hold up for so long." All of a sudden a loud shattering-like crack was heard and Death Eaters entered from both the front door and patio door. The first few that entered stepped on the Tetsubushi, screaming in pain as they fell down. The ones immediately following them tripped over the first few. Evan immediately banished one pile of glass dust at the front door, and the other pile of glass dust at the patio door. The Death Eaters who had their eyes open began screaming in pain from the glass shards in their eyes. The last Death Eaters pushed their way through, firing cutting and bludgeoning spells as well as Crucio spells across the dining room.
Evan then transfigured the Fire Glass into small sharp flechettes of glass and banished one pile at the front door and one pile at the patio door. The glass shards hit and cut into the Death Eaters, causing their faces and hands to bleed and swell. The Death Eaters that had tripped over the first bunch began recovering, getting up from the floor. Evan then quickly threw the sharp cooking knives at those Death Eaters rising. When those knives were gone, he quickly swept his eyes over the situation, determining if there was any other eminent danger. Seeing none, he whispered to Dobby to summon all their wands and portkeys, also telling Dobby to remain quiet while the phone connection was open. They put the wands and portkeys on the kitchen counter.
It took another ten minutes for emergency services to arrive. Those Death Eaters trying to get up were told to not move. Those that continued to rise were shot in the leg or shoulder, whichever provided a more convenient target.
