Meanwhile at Westpark, A newly formed town somewhere in Britain.

-----------------------Introduction to my characters------------------------------------------------

Lets know our characters.

Jake, it's been his name since he was found outside the orphanage. People always said he was Asian when they looked at him. The orphanage was a nice place. The warden, a Mr. Ball was a nice guy. He had the sense to get them a tutor. Someone who thought us everything from reading to math and even physics and stuff like that, and he always managed it in one day. So they could cope up and get decent jobs when they leave. They were fed and had good medical facilities. They were allowed to go out and meet people. They were given good allowances for the chores they do.

There's a Chris Black. Tall, slightly muscular, black eyes, black hair, He says his father Sirius went to jail just after his mother was pregnant. Never saw him since. His mother found out how much she loved him. Took drugs and finally ended up committing suicide.

He was a bit of a weirdo. He could move stuff without touching them. And once he even set the bed on fire. Yes a weirdo, but cool in other ways. He wasn't the only one. Their Neighbor, a guy named Dorian was another. They say he moved into town 70 years ago. But he still looked like he was in his 20's.

Next was Megan Turner. She was skinny, with a thin face and long black hair, black eyes. You could classify her as good looking. But to Chris she was like some kind of goddess.

Chris saw her and couldn't stop talking about her. He asked her, she accepted, Bing bang boom they became a couple. They were never found separate. Even during punishments. It was because they did something stupid together.

Then there were the Bearers. Michael and Sarah. They came in when we were 14. They were like other people. Nothing special, both blond, blue eyes, Michael tall and lean, Sarah being extremely curvy. Even the Mr. Ball couldn't talk to her without staring at them. But no one could approach her. Because Michael was over protective, and was cautious for her safety. You know, the he-raised-her-since-parents-died kind of story.

Then there was the Matron. A guy matron, you way say he was gay for the job. But he was an awesome dude. A fucking black belt. He saw Jake getting fucked by bullies. Took pity and thought him moves to defend himself. He learnt it well. He begged him to teach him more and teach his friends more. So they got lessons in Martial arts and a little fencing. Jake, Chris and Megan and the Bearers all the way all the way. Together learning the stuff.

When they reached 17. It was time to leave. They couldn't wait until we were 18, because it was too crowded. There were new faces coming everyday. But they always had enough food and always had one more room. They never knew how. Plus, besides Mr. Ball, The matron and the tutor. There wasn't anyone else to help. People thought about and eventually forgot about it.

We they were leaving. When suddenly the Mayor called everyone for a towns meeting. It was a small town. The population went up to 138. The place had 1 department store, couple of delis, 1 big restaurant, and even a gun store. Owned by a war veteran. Ed, he came back from the war and decided to work with what he knew best. Matters of fact, most of the town's people went to war and were proud of it. They spoke stories of their bravery and how they would like the chance of fighting again.

After the war, they decided to form a haven for veterans and heroes. So they formed this town.

If you went further to the outskirts of the town. You would see a farm full of bulldogs owned by Marge Dursley. She was a mad lady who spent most of her time complaining about everything, hitting on men or Bitching about some guy named Potter in her brothers house. She worked part time as a nurse at the town's hospital. And wore a miniskirt so she could attract men. She tried to act nice, but wasn't good at it. The hospital couldn't fire her because they got a lot of money treating the people who shot themselves after seeing her fat thighs.

Any way, you can tell the town's small and normal.

-----------------------------------Introduction ends, story starts-------------------------------------

At the meeting, the mayor cleared his throat and yelled (He never needed a mike, his voice was loud enough.) "YOU'VE READ THE NEWS, YOU'VE HEARD THE STORIES. TOWNS GETTING SMASHED, LEVITATING BODIES, TORTURE AND KILLING. THEY SAY IT'S BY WIZARDS. PEOPLE WITH BLACK HOODS, WALKING AROUND ZAPPING PEOPLE WITH THEIR WANDS. THE NEIGHBORS HAVE FALLEN BECAUSE THEY REFUSED TO BELIEVE THE RUMORS. I BELIEVE THEM. YES I DO. I KNOW THEY WILL BE COMING HERE." He stopped, looked at everyone. They were laughing.

He waited till this stopped and cleared his throat again and yelled, " I HAVE PROOF. FIRSTLY, PEOPLE HAVE COME TO WARN US, IN HOSPITALS PEOPLE SCREAMING ABOUT WIZARDS. IT'S EVEN IN THE NEWS. A GIRL GOT A VIDEO OF IT AND HAS MAILED IT TO THE MEDIA. IF IT'S A HOAX, HOW IS IT THAT PEOPLE ALL OVER THE COUNTRY GET KILLED THE SAMEWAY? HOW DO THE SURVIVERS SCREAM THE SAMETHING OVER AND OVER AGAIN?"

Paused. And continued "I'M NOT FORCING YOU TO DO ANYTHING. BUT I'M GOING TO DO MY BEST TO PROTECT THIS TOWN. MY HOME. I'M REQUESTING YOU TO DO SO. I'M SURE YOU WOULD LIKE TO PROTECT YOUR HOUSES…"

"WAIT A MINUTE." A voice interrupted him, "YOU WANT US TO ARM OURSELVES AGAINST YOUR IMAGINATION."

People laughed.

"HOW DID YOU MAKE US VOTE FOR YOU?" screamed another.

People laughed and began jeering again.

The mayor screamed, "OK, LETS SAY I'M WRONG AND THERE ARE NO WIZARDS. SILENCE." He yelled, as there was another round of jeering. "THERE ARE NO WIZARDS. TELL ME, HOW DID THAT BRIDGE IN LONDON COLLAPSE? YOU CANNOT DENY THAT IT WAS QUITE NEW AND THERE WAS NO EXPLOSIONS. HOW DID IT COLLAPSE?" He repeated to the newly formed silence. "PEOPLE DIED WITHOUT A SCRATCH ON THEIR BODY. HOW DID IT HAPPEN? ANSWER ME." He demanded to the crowd. "I DON'T THINK PEOPLE WOULD DECIDE TO DIE JUST LIKE THAT."

He looked at everyone again and yelled, "YOU MAY THINK THERE IS A RATIONAL EXPLAINATION FOR ALL THIS. I SAY THERE ISN'T. IT WAS MAGIC. IT WAS MAGIC THAT KILLED THOSE PEOPLE. IT WAS MAGIC THAT DESTROYED THE BRIDGE. IT WAS MAGIC THAT DESTROYED THE TOWNS; IT WAS MAGIC THAT SENT THOSE PEOPLE TO THE HOSPITAL. WHAT MORE PROOF DO YOU WANT?"

Then he added in a more defeated voice, "I KNEW SOMETHING LIKE THIS WOULD HAPPEN. MY SPEECH IS OVER TODAY. WHOEVER BELIVES ME MUST COME BACK HERE BY NOON. I'M GIVING YOU THAT MUCH TIME TO THINK ABOUT IT. FOR THE REMAINING OF YOU." He stopped without continuing.

Jack felt something flush all over him. Starting from his heart to his fingertips and toes.

"NOW GO AND THINK. I'LL BE HERE BY NOON." The mayor concluded and walked of the podium and out the door.
