“When we did ‘Dune Part One’, Timothée had spent months with old people all around him. When he saw Zendaya coming on set he said ‘finally someone my age I can relate to’. They became close friends very quickly. I am a lucky director. They love each other. That made my job much more easy. They trust each other, they love each other, and they love to work together. To create an intimacy between them, to create that love story that is at the center of the project…it made my life easier.”

-Denis Villeneuve talking about Timothée Chalamet and Zendaya (YouTube credit to IMDb)

Prompt 31 - Body Hair

@jegulus-microfic March 31 Word count 1435

Here we go guys. I hope it doesn't disappoint.💜💜

Previous part First part

Something was wrong. Regulus, Barty and Evan had all been summoned, but not to Malfoy Manor. They’d been summoned to a field in Devon. 

They’d only just all returned to Rosier House to start planning the best way to defeat Voldemort. 

“We’re coming with you,” James told him. “The rest of us will hide. But at least we’ll be there if anything goes wrong.” Regulus argued, but Sirius moved to James’s side and stood shoulder-to-shoulder with him. 

“We’re coming, Reggie.” He said firmly. Regulus stopped trying to change their minds.  

They apparated together a safe distance from the field into a small wooded area. Regulus’s dark mark was searing with pain as Voldemort summoned him over and over again. 

“I love you,” He said, grasping James’s robes and dragging him down for a final kiss. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the others doing much the same. 

He let go of James and took Remus’s arm as Voldemort summoned him again. They spun and landed beside Barty and Evan in the centre of a field of long grass. 

“My Lord,” They spoke together, bowing low as one. 

“What took you?” Voldemort hissed, his anger not hidden at all. 

He stood before his entire congregation of Death Eaters. Regulus was pleased to see the werewolves hadn’t been summoned as well. He must think they aren’t that much of a threat. Perhaps he was right.  

“We were hunting down my brother as you demanded, my Lord. We were hot on his trail and had hoped to capture him before we answered your call.” Regulus said using his best penitent Lord voice. 

“Liar!” Voldemort hissed at them so fiercely that they half expected him to transform into a snake. 

With a crack, Bellatrix and three masked Death Eaters appeared beside Voldemort. James, Sirius, Lily and Pandora with them, bound tightly. They shoved their captives forward towards Regulus. 

“Pan-Pandora, what are you doing here?” One of the masked Death Eaters spluttered, breaking rank. Lord Rosier was quickly forced back into line by Voldemort’s deadly stare. 

“Mr Potter and Mr Black were caught leaving Rosier House last night with our spy in chains. We have put two and two together and assume you are all working together. You have all turned spy for Albus Dumbledore.” Voldemort spat the name as he revealed why they’d been summoned. “Did it start when you were captured?” He asked Regulus. 

Regulus set his jaw and nodded stiffly. Voldemort narrowed his eyes. “You have betrayed Lord Voldemort. What an incredibly foolish thing to do.” While Voldemort had been distracted, Barty and Evan had removed the ropes from their friends. The Thestrals raised their wands in unison. 

In her haste, Bellatrix had bound her captives but not unarmed them. She realised her mistake and looked in horror at her master. Luckily for her, his attention lay elsewhere.

“Now, now, children. Lord Voldemort is merciful.” Voldemort raised his hands as though to calm them. “Lord Voldemort will forgive your deceitful ways.” He turned to James, Sirius and Pandora, pointedly leaving Lily out of his offer. “Join me, and all will be forgiven. You shall all have a place at my side as we rule wizarding society as it was meant to be.” Voldemort’s attempted benevolence fell short. Their silence gave him their answer. 

The line of Death Eaters moved forward, closing the gap between themselves and their master, standing just behind him, all but one. Orion Black reached up and removed his hood and mask. Unseen by everyone but the Thestrals. He raised his wand and, in one graceful swoop, stunned every Death Eater in the back, taking them all out. 

Orion managed to bind and gag the Death Eaters before he was hit by Voldemort’s curse. He fell to the ground screaming and then lay still. 

“PAPA!!!” Regulus and Sirius screamed together. Regulus saw the murderous rage in his brother’s eyes and knew his own reflected the same. As one, they turned and pointed their wands directly at Voldemort.  

They started blasting off spells one after the other. Voldemort may be mortal now, but he was still more than a formidable foe. They dodged and parried and stuck up shields, sending as many spells as possible at Voldemort, hoping to catch him just once so they could get the upper hand. 

Evan caught a spell on the left side of his body. Evan’s face contorted in pain as Regulus watched his friend fall to the ground in slow motion. Barty rushed forward and was struck as he tried in vain to get to Evan. 

They were dropping like flies. Voldemort was so powerful. Regulus began to panic that none of them would make it out alive. 

Pandora and Lily collapsed simultaneously into the sopping grass next after they successfully cast a slicing charm together, leaving deep slashes across Voldemort’s torso. Voldemort fired off curses in quick succession at them.  

Sirius dove in front of Remus as another spell went sailing across them. It clipped Sirius and struck Remus. 

“REMUS!!!” He screamed, forgetting about the battle and leaving himself open for Voldemort to take out. He landed on Remus’s chest, both of them deathly still. Regulus pushed the tears away as he forced himself to concentrate on the battle. 

His magic had begun to crackle beneath his skin with the anger he felt. He tried to ignore it. 

Regulus and James were the only ones left. They defended themselves well, but Voldemort was so powerful. 

Regulus heard the guff of air leave James's lungs. He turned just in time to see him crumple to the ground, unmoving. 

Regulus’s world stopped. A screeching noise blasted his ears. It took him a while to realise it was his own voice screaming in grief. He turned his attention back to the cackling form before him. 

“Just us now, little Lord Black. Are you prepared for the afterlife, I wonder?”

“Are you?!” Regulus felt his magic scorching his body as it fought to get out to avenge the ones he loved. Voldemort threw his head back, cackling louder than ever, still believing himself to be immortal. 

The magic swirled around Regulus like the ancient magic of the forest had, ruffling his hair and casting a gloom around him that made him look deadly. Voldemort took an uncertain step backwards as Regulus raged towards him, all semblance of fear gone. 

There wasn’t much left of Tom Riddle once Regulus was done with him. He fell to his knees, feeling drained. He’d used more of his magic than he’d ever used before. It left him weak. 

He snorted with derision as he looked down at the pieces of wizard in the grass and realised the man had absolutely no body hair. It was an odd thing to realise about the person you’d just murdered, but his brain wasn’t exactly working at full capacity. It probably had to do with not wanting anyone to use Polyjuice Potion in his image. He reasoned as things slowly clicked together. 

He turned his head, tears beginning to cascade down his face as he remembered his friends and brother lying around him on the ground. And James. Oh, James. He crawled over to him and dropped his head onto his chest as he fell apart, sobbing into his robes. 

A hand came up and rested on the back of his neck. 

“Hey, love, don’t cry. It’s alright.” James croaked at him. Regulus snapped his head up and watched as James slowly blinked his eyes open. 

His mouth found James’s, and the relief at seeing him, feeling him alive, made his jaw quiver with unshed emotion. He could not have survived without James Potter in this world.  

Movement in the corner of his eye made him pull away from James, but he still held on for dear life. The others were all groaning in the grass, but they were all moving. They were all alive! 

“Fuck you, Mouldy Voldy.” Barty spat into the grass as Evan hauled him shakily to his feet. 

Sirius was clinging to Remus much like Regulus was to James. Somehow, Remus managed to pull him over to where they were standing. James wrapped them in a hug. They were all shaking as the effects of the adrenaline wore off. Lily and Pandora came over next, adding themselves to the group hug, and then Evan and Barty joined in, not wanting to be left out. 

They just stood there holding each other. Relief and disbelief flooded through each of them.

“We won,” Regulus whispered as he watched his father get up. “We won.”

Thank you all so much for reading I really hope you enjoyed it.

[center] U-2 Vulnerability Tests

Vulnerability of the U-2 was tested against the F-102 and F-104 fighters at Eglin AFB in December 1959. The tests were conducted under optimum controlled ground and air environment for the attacking pilot (i.e., outstanding pilots, isolated air space, ideal weather, pre-selected intercept point, etc.). The F-104 cannot cruise at altitudes over 60,000 feet, but it possesses a capability to convert speed to altitude and attain co-altitude of the U-2 for a period of less than 30 seconds. The F-104 was equipped with air-to-air missiles of the infra-red seeking variety and airborne radar that locates the aircraft and allows the pilot to visually acquire the target to complete the attack. The F-104 radar malfunctioned at high altitudes.

The pilot of this fighter could not visually acquire the target in sufficient time to solve the fire control problem. The F-102 all weather fighter consistently acquired the target and was able to solve the fire control problem for launching air-to-air missiles. To be successful, the missiles require outstanding high altitude performances and a slant range in excess of five miles. The performance of both aircraft exceeded the present capability of operational Soviet fighters. The standard operational Soviet fighters cannot attain co-altitude of the U-2. A new fighter, the fitter, of which an estimated 120 have been produced, is considered capable of co-altitude for a period of several seconds. It is not, however, presently considered operational. The standard Soviet all weather fighter, YAK-25/Flashlight, is considered capable of acquiring the U-2 on airborne radar. However, to complete a successful intercept would require an air-to-air missile with a slant range in excess of seven miles. The USSR is considered to have air-to-air missiles, however, there is no intelligence source that indicates that the missiles are operational.

[center] Conclusions

1.  The F-104 can attain co-altitude, but the difficulty in visually acquiring the target makes any single attack a low probability of successful intercept.

2.  The F-102 with its radar can acquire the U-2 and possesses the performance to solve the fire control problem, however, air-to-air missiles of outstanding performance and long range are required to accomplish airborne intercept. There is no known operational deployment of air-to-air missiles by the Soviets.

3.  Successful intercept of the U-2 by the Soviet defensive fighters for the next few months is unlikely.
