As the sun set, the members of the Order Of The Phoenix were sitting at a table in James Potter's childhood home. James had offered the house up for a meeting place and safe house due to nobody living in it anymore.

They were all waiting anxiously to hear the news Dumbledore had promised about the Meadows family. The twins, Dorcas and Lucas, had gone missing a month prior. None of the members were as anxious as the youngest Meadows, Devin, was. He was refusing to sit down as he paced back and forth around the room with his head held in his hand. Bentley Hill attempted to comfort his boyfriend, but everyone knew that it was in vain. The gut feeling that something was wrong was sitting over everyone like a dark cloud. And when Dumbledore entered the room with a grim expression, Devin felt his whole world shatter down. He didn't even hear when Dumbledore announced that Lucas and Dorcas were dead. He fell to his knees, tears freely rolling from his eyes as he processed the news. His siblings, gone, murdered by Lord Voldemort himself. How would he tell his parents? How would he live without his older sister, who had tried so hard to keep everyone's spirits up, and his older brother, who had done his very best to protect the younger boy. Devin let out a scream of anguish, his pain felt by everyone in that room. Lily and Alice attempted to comfort Devin alongside Bentley, all while they themselves were crying. Everyone in that room was now mourning the loss.

After the death of his siblings, Devin Meadows became reckless. He was almost always out on missions, volunteering for the most dangerous ones. Until one day, the lifeless and bloody body of Devin Meadows showed up in the yard of the one who loved him more than anything, Bentley Hill. And with the death of Devin, that Meadows family was gone, their bloodline over.
