Ron looked thoughtful. "We need a weapon that will kill within seconds, and be easily cast. Something too fast to block and too alien enough to understand. Only then will we have a chance."
Harry, whose uncle had bought just such a weapon less than a decade ago, and had attempted to use it in a dramatic situation Harry would certainly remember, came to the same conclusion as Hermione within seconds:
"We'll need to find a Muggle village -"
"A big one. A small one won't have -"
"In America, there's a place called Texas -"
"Would we use Confundus on the clerk or just Accio -"
Ron was startled by the outbursts. Who would have thought Muggles would have had ways of killing as efficient as wands? It's not like his own father, a Muggle enthusiast, had told him all about the power of Muggle technology...
