Disclaimer: Hello lovelies, disclaimer time again! I have no rights to the works of JK Rowling or the people of MuggleCast. :) Also, the views of the characters in this chapter is based solely on those of the MuggleCasters, superfluously exaggerated for your enjoyment.

Also, still working on getting a good schedule going, every thing's so busy right now! You try writing a story while having a college-load of homework to do and a term paper looming in the distant future. A fifteen to twenty page paper, yikes! If only it was on Harry Potter, keep dreaming, right? ;)

While out in the garden, the Casters talked about what the story could mean. Seeing as they had such great ways of analysis, they came up with the most probable analysis of what would happen in the future. Harry would do something incredibly stupid, Hermione would help him through the problem and Ron would be there just for comic relief.

"So, any gameplans as to what we're planning on doing in the near future?" Jamie looked to the Casters. I mean, none of us have much money in our pockets, and I doubt that someone would take a credit card which won't be activated for another ten or fifteen years. We're all kinda stuck here for who knows how long. So, any ideas?"

Before the other Casters responded, a strange noise was heard, in a garden where the strange seemed ordinary. Then, everything seemed to happen at once. They had just realized that the whirring of the printing press inside the house had stopped, and a noise of broken china reached their ears. This was followed almost immediately by a whooshing sound, coming from the sky. The Casters ducked for cover just in time as a group of well clad wizards swooped just over their hiding place in a strangely unsymmetrical bush. Frenzied yells wafted out of a house followed directly by an explosion. Looking amongst themselves, neither of them had any idea what was going on, shown by their quizzical facial expressions.

Just then, the house seemed to be crashing down from the inside-out, yells and screams were heard and the Casters hoped that the trio were the cause of this madness. "They'd better not forget about us. Those guys that just flew past us didn't look like the friendly sort. They looked more like the deatheater sort." Mikey grumbled and looked to his friends.

Emerson nodded in agreement. "Hey guys look, there they are, Harry and Hermione are holding hands, how sweet and shall we say harmonious." He said, cocking his eyebrow and running to catch up to the tree who looked like they were just about to apparate. Just as Jamie ran to close the link, the group apparated, with strangely no problem, leaving the Casters to ponder on if maybe they had some magic.

As soon as they got to the new hiding place, Hermione immediately began putting down protective spells around the diameter, as she finished, her Ron and Harry started talking about what just happened.

"That treacherous old bleeder!" Ron spat, looking at a cut on his leg through his jeans, which looked as though they'd been through a lot in the past few minutes. Hermione was also clearly annoyed.

"Cave Inimicum... Didn't I say it was an Erumpent horn, didn't I tell him? And now his house has been torn apart." She shook her head and was looking off into the distance, looking angry.

"What happened up there? First we heard breaking glass and then those wizards came along." Ben, looked over to the trio, who looked as though they had been through a war with all of their cuts and scrapes, not to mention all of the dust from the house on their muggle clothes. "Did Harry do something stupid and did Hermione save the day?"

Harry growled back saying that he didn't do anything, that it was Mr. Lovegood's fault. He then threw a magazine over to Ben, who smirked back at Harry and opened it up. The group hovered around the magazine that had Harry gazing up at them, smiling distantly with "UNDESIRABLE NUMBER ONE" emblazoned on the top of the page.

"Aha, what was once desirable is now not wanted. I thought Xeno was on your side, with the expose written by the bug." He looked at the wizards, especially at Hermione who raised her brow.

"What precisely do you mean by a bug?"

Jamie looked back to her, faking innocence. "Oh, I thought everyone knew that she was an unregistered animagus. You know, she's really a beetle!" His lips twitched, doing all he could to keep from smiling.

"But anyway, what happened?" Eric asked, trying to break up the conversation between Hermione and Jamie.

"Well, Xenophillius accidentally revealed his true feelings towards Harry, he showed that he was a royal git. Then Hermione cleverly blew up the house and made me stay in the invisibility cloak, why was that exactly?" He looked at Hermione, trying not to look too admiringly at her.

"I covered you up because you're supposed to be home with spattergroit and before you ask, Harry had to stay out in the open so it would look as though Mr. Lovegood was telling the truth. I also stayed unhidden because I hid my parents away." She said, staring sadly off into the distance.

"Ah," Emerson said, with a mischievious look in his eyes. "I was halfway right then wasn't I?" He smiled. Yet the faces of the trio looked miserable. "What's up guys? You got out safe, how bad can it be?"

Hermione turned her gaze from the mountain scape in the distance to the faces of the Casters. "If you do really know us you'd know Luna." They nodded and she continued. "She was kidnapped on the train coming from Hogwarts during Christmas break. One of the wizards said that she was alive, but if she is, which she must be..." Her face turned dark. "I just hope she's safe."

Ron and Ben both moved to help her feel better, which was the cause of frustration for all three with much pushing and shoving, Harry ended up giving Hermione a hug and leaving the two misguided lovers to fight to the death for their lady.

A few minutes later, after Ben and Ron had been pulled apart, Harry began looking for something that they could all eat while Eric began talking about Pokeman and how amazing it used to be. Harry and Hermione were able to relate to Eric because they had been brought up muggle and Pokeman used to be a favorite of Dudley's, this was before he of course lost interest and threw his Pikachu out the window of his old room on the second floor. Hermione went on to talk about how Pokeman was yet another example of humans trying to exert their power over humans. This obviously upset Eric and Andrew which set the three off into a major debate on the good and bad aspects of the show.

Everyone else spent the night making pizza with Harry transfiguring grass into ingredients. During dinner, everything tasted a bit green yet no one really concentrated on the food seeing as the task at hand was a bit more important than food that tasted of grass.

Right guys, hope you enjoyed the chappie. Yep, it's a bit short I know, yet I have no time to work on this. Parents just got back from a trip and I'm in the middle of homework. Perhaps this means that I may be able to write a new chapter this week, keep your fingers crossed mates and we'll see what happens!
