Not that he was being extra and dramatic, but he'd rather be there to do his job as a Magical Forensics personnel and not ask Mr. Muir to get him a sample of...whatever there is to sample. He did sort of humiliated himself the first time, and obviously, he was gambling with luck this time around.
Ethan apparated in a random back alley and was quick on his feet as soon as the smell of burnt something reached his nostrils. The detective remained in the shadows, quietly assessing the scene...and what a scene it was. Students disappearing via portkeys...Merlin knows where those bunch of muggle rubbish will take them, to the burnt something a few steps away from a stunned and bound professor-- hopefully still breathing, to a couple more tending to her...and then to the woman whom the Headmistress of Hogwarts was guarding.
Confused. He was very confused. Right in the middle of this muggle town, wands were out while students and a couple of adults went on to disappear into thin air.
Ethan emerged from the shadows, made eye contact with a man holding a spray bottle, quickly assuming that he was one of the people from A&C. Greetings and salutations weren't necessary at this point, and so Ethan quickly found himself standing beside Isaac. "Headmistress is over there, sir." the fair-haired Mordaunt said in a low tone, gesturing his head towards where the woman stood. "Aurors and YATIs will be here soon to assist you in the arrest," he said giving the other woman on the ground a quick glance. "Looking at it, the woman with the Headmistress is the baddie, and your main victim is that stunned and bound woman on the ground," it was the perfect picture of getting caught in the act, honestly. "I'll go work with the A&C to collect evidence and samples..." he said, fishing out clear evidence bags from his charmed pockets, swabs, small vials, and a pair of latex gloves. "I'll see you in a bit...sir."
Now, where's that guy with the spray bottle? His name is Gideon too, yes? Quote:

Sparks were literally flying, and somehow ropes were coming flying out of their wooden sticks. It was even cooler than those stunt and special effects shows at Disney. MIND = BLOWN.
But then shouting interrupted his thoughts. He looked over at the woman - he assumed she was the baddie in this fictional scene - who was spouting off. What was a muggle...a no-ma-something-or-other? Clearly this meant to be one of the later scenes from the movie. A big action scene like this, might even be the big finale. And here he was, thinking nothing cool ever happened in Dufftown. Somehow he'd ended up in as an extra in a movie!
He started heading toward where all the action was happening...and, was rather surprise to see that people seemed to be just...disappearing over there. One minute visible, the next completely gone. That was some cool camera trick...way better than the ropes-out-of-sticks thing. He needed to find out how it worked. Maybe he could ask Jessa, Abra or Derf about it when he re-found them, since they seemed to be in on the whole thing. Oh, and he should totally snag one of those glowy things as a souvenir too.
It wasn't everyday one ended up in the middle of a film set, after all. His best mate was gonna be well jealous.
Isaac noticed a few more people arrive including the muggle. Nodding to Gideon from level 3 he turned towards Ethan when he arrived. "Good to see you. Ethan." HAH he'd gotten it right this time. Hmph, not going to mention the fiasco of a meeting.
"Sounds good, see what you can find out. I'll speak with the headmistress and the young lady that's with her." Seemed to be a good start at least. He glanced around again before heading towards the Headmistress.
