Our story is just beginning. It started when He was at the height of power. Fewer children were born, but no one noticed the strange birthmark on their left hips. Or if they did, they dismissed it as nothing.
It's six years later, and these children have started showing their power. And it's not the accidental magic of their parents, or of other children even a year or two older than them. It's strange and wild, controlled and yet uncontrolled. The children are not frightened of their power, they felt it building since they were much smaller.
An initiative is started to bring children in at an earlier age. A magical Grammar School, as it were. They learn English and Maths and Art, but there's a special class that teaches them the dangers of lashing out their power, and how to keep it in check.
At the same time, a new Prime Minister has been elected. PM Alexander Ruffio is suspicious when Kingsley shows up at his door, but is quickly intrigued by this revelation. He remembers the strange brother that he has disowned, and knows this man is telling the truth.
Soon children begin disappearing.
From Hogwarts, the best and the brightest go missing. Ravenclaw and Slytherin are the main targets, but a few disappear from Hufflepuff and Gryffindor as well.
Children from the Grammar school arrive at class shaken, if they arrive at all. Several gifted students have gone missing there as well. Whispers start, rumours spread, but they're nothing more than gossip. There is talk of a new band of enemies. Power hungry fiends that care nothing for status, and everything for the power that magic brings forth.
Meanwhile, most of the Wizarding world doesn't notice what's going on until the Minister issues a decree.
We're at war.
