Professor Welton stood in the front of the classroom as she looked out at the three clusters of desks. Normally, she would have just left the desks in a neat rows, but small clusters would work better today. On each desk was a sheet of parchment and a coloured marker.
Walking down the middle, she smiled as she pulled her wand out and flicked it at the door. It was time to let the children in. Silently, the door swung open as she placed her wand back in its holster and made her way back to the front. Standing before the massive map floating in the front of the room, she bounced on her heals slightly.
"So, it'll be like Harry Potter's early years all over again. Except this time, muggles are involved." Not like they could really do anything. Wizards were far superior.
Then again, coming out of "hiding" did sound pretty good. Then there would be no law about underage wizardry! "Do you think the law about underage wizardry would still be enforced if the muggles knew about us? Considering that there will be others trying to take over the world and all, which I am agreeing with you on that...others would do that," Totally not her. Pfft, nu uh. Okay, maybe a little. "Who'd have time to follow kids around everywhere?"
SPOILER!!: Walrus and professor...making me laugh
Haha, wow. Was she the only one that didn't know what a grilled cheese sandwich was? Darn her parents for making her only have certain foods! PFFFT!
Though, she did happen to roll her eyes when the student talking about grilled cheese actually went to the door. 'Rhetorical question genius.' Picking up her quill, she just about snapped it in half when Professor Whatshername actual agreed to him getting sandwiches.
SERIOUSLY!?
Like....seriously? Ew! She didn't want any cheese that was grilled!
Meep, more people talking. More people who she was agreeing with. *sigh*
"With both of those answers, I think they would just be support for what...whatever your name is." she said, pointing to the girl who just said something about the wizards taking over the world. "It's like a perfect opportunity too for that to happen." Purebloods wouldn't like it, so they'd probably join in some small group to maintain their pureblood status and ways, and then probably eventually stand up and show that they are superior to somehow tell the other witches and wizards that they should not be hanging around the muggles like that.
Aw, complications. Gotta love them. "Then again, some of us still may be happy about the new out of "hiding" thing. The Ministry would have to be on extra alert for anything going on around that may seem like we are messing with the muggles...which means more jobs would open up."
"True" Cass said "But not all wizarding families aim to conquer the muggles. Besides, if it was the Ministry's idea to bring down the code of secrecy then that means they would keep an eye out for those wizards who want to conquer the little muggles. We don't want another Gellert Grindelwald, do we?"

Making her way back to the front of the room, Sylvie frowned a bit. There wasn't much talk amongst Team Purple. The other two teams seemed to be doing great. Glancing at her watch, she shook her head and clapped her hands to draw the attention of the students.
"Now that I have given you enough time to discuss, can each group give me a run through of what your team has come up with and then we can move on to something not as dark as war."

Salander took his seat with the White!Team and recognized a few familiar faces-- he gave little Alice a smile and nodded his head in GlitterPuff's direction. His tilted his head at the quirky Ravenclaw boy who started to wax poetic about grilled cheese sandwiches, then ran off to the kitchens to get servings for the class. "Hey see if they could rustle up a side of nachos too!" he called out. Free food-- specially those that he didnt ask for-- was AWESOME!
Focusing back on the task at hand, he furrowed his brow and said "Hmm so, Muggles experiencing weird weather, freak accidents, missing people, black billowy streaks across the sky and the sudden appearance of a bald, pale dude with no nose.... well, they're gonna say what they always say when they cant explain things-- the Aliens have landed!"

"Actually, no..." they couldn't do that. "For one, sirius wasn't as dangerous as Voldemort. With Sirius they could have easily caught him, but why would they warn the muggles about a guy who you couldn't escape from." Yeah yous see him he kills you... you cant call a hotline for it. "And I don't think he would just be taking a stroll down a street. He wouldn't just let muggles see him out in the open. He had to be dark, mysterious, and evil. Killing when no one was looking." Well this discussion was going a stray, slightly. "Also the muggles could have mstaken him for...uhm..." what was that guys name... geez "uhm... Michael Jackson" yup thats it!
"Michael Jackson," Fletcher mused, rubbing his chin. "Michael Jackson." He repeated the name once more for good measure and THEN the mental image of the guy with no nose cropped up. "Michael Jackson! Genius. That just might work!"

"Yeah I doubt they would," Fletcher shrugged. "We were just discussing that."

Then out of nowhere came an early turn of the centary pop singer reference, "What the hell Jacob?" the boy spluttered, laughter tripping his words, "I don't think -" he stopped. "Actually I can see the similarity."
Returning his attention to the question, "I think the muggle choose not to think about it at all, it seems to be a fairly common line of thinking with muggles, that if it's hard to explain, dont worry about it....and I doubt if any of them had found out the real causes of the bridge, or fog, that they would believe magic exsisted!"
"They would just avoid talking about the mysterious occurances going on all around them? Hmm," Fletcher didn't really think they would react that day. "But Muggles really rely on their media as sources of information... and I'm sure all their tellyvisors and newspapers would have a field day with bridges collapsing and stuff."

Ha. Apocalypse. She didn't even know what that meant. But it was bad, reeeaaalll bad.
"They would blame some outside source. I doubt magic would cross their minds. You know, the un-wizard related muggles."
"Ooh good idea," Fletcher also nodded approvingly at the other Ravenclaw. Geez, what was this group? 'Claws and Gryffs? "An apocalypse is one way to describe the havoc Voldemort was wrecking, I reckon."

As the one boy in their group ran off to get everyone grilled cheese, Fletcher cracked a grin and raised his hand to answer the question for Team White!
"Well, Professor," he started, "we think the Muggles would have reacted by trying to find a rational, normal, non-magical explanation for every odd occurence. They might have described Voldemort as some sort of 'terrorist' and compared his appearance to Michael Jackson's. They probably also would have thought aliens and UFOs were involved if they say flying cars or people on broomsticks, for example. And finally, if things got too bad and dementors were attacking left and right and building were exploding, the Muggles might just have given up hope and declared it all to be the apocalypse. Because no matter what, we all agreed that Muggles wouldn't accept that magic and wizardkind was to blame.... because obviously, in the mind of a Muggle, magic does not exist."
He nodded and looked back to his group to see if they had anything to add.

Aw right, that was true too.
"Which, is why I mentioned the extra jobs opening up to keep that from happening." she said, tapping her quill on her desk as she slung her other arm over her chair and fingers laying on the top of it. No one really wanted another Grindelwald. Unless of course...they did and would be siding with whoever it was.

Glancing over to the professor, Evelyn turned back around in her seat, waiting for the others to say what they came up with as she took one more peak at her team mates. Anyone going to say what they discussed? Yes? No?
Maybe?
Eh. Raising her hand, it seemed like it was their turn. "Well, for the wizard public, there was multiple interpretations of the event. Some of us would have been glad for finally coming out of "hiding" and be able to use magic freely without most of the consequences. On the other hand though, some of us probably wouldn't have enjoyed the fact that muggles would have been introduced to our wizarding world under such a harsh event, and instead would have liked them to have found out about us in a more lighter sense like...curing cancer or something." That's what that one girl had said right?
"And then, I think it was also mentioned that some would use this opportunity to take their "rightful place" and try to conquer the muggle world instead. So all in all, it really depends on the view points of the individual witches and wizards, and like we were discussing earlier in class, where they came from."
Well I guess I will talk for the Purple team" Rex told the professor. No one else spoke up.
" Well the Ministry needs to keep everything hidden from HogWarts, Muggles and thee rest" Rex said to the professor. " The Ministry would have the paper tell everyone that there is no problem in the Ministry" Rex explained to the professor. " The ministry is not going to really protect the innocent, they are going to protect themselves at all costs" Rex finished his Ministry staement for the Purple Team.
Lucy was in the green team supporting the wizarding people "According to me, i wouldn't believe anything about magic if i was a muggle. I would not follow to what the ministry said and would put them in jail for spreading just rumors of magic" she said and looked around.

Cass listened to what her teammate had to say. When she was done, she added "Also, I don't think exposing the muggles to magic would be the best idea...especially when concerning their mental health."
"It's not who you are that holds you back, it's who you think you are not."

Alice gave Salander a small smile back and listened to his answer. She laughed quietly to herself. Aliens? She knew some muggles were thinking along those lines but most were thinking end of the world. "Most muggles were thinking it was the end of the world. Nearly all the newspapers read "apocalypse" somewhere in their titles."

Alice nodded in agreement at what the boy had said. "That sounds about right," Alice said quietly, not wanting to sound too opinionated among so many older students.

Rowan felt like she was letting her team down, but she really had no idea. Figures she would end up on the Ministry side when she really didn't even know what the Ministry was or did.

Freya nodded at the older boy opinion. "Yeah. Most muggles would think something like that. If something happened in their world that out of their mind they'd assumed that Aliens did all that thing." she said. "They never believe magic is exist. They thought magic is just some tricks." she added

He nodded and looked back to his group to see if they had anything to add.
Again Freya nodded her head when the older Hufflepuff boy summed up team white opinions.
Rubiey spoke up too. No-one from the purple team was speaking, so she stepped forward.
"It's like some of the other groups have alreaady said: Muggles are oblivious. They will make up the most un-realistic stories, just to stay ignorant about magic. I think that it makes them feel safer; they would rather believe that 10year old bridges are bound to collapse, or that there's freak weather conditions, than actually face up to the obvious. It would be too much for Muggles to handle." She smirked; she had just summed up her mother. "The Minister of Magic is right to let the Prime Minister know, and of course he isn't going to say anything; people would think he was nuts. They think all witches and wizards were 'burned at the stake' back, like, a billion years ago, and refuse to think anything different." She finished. N'awww, silly muggles.
Jacob some how was able to open the door to the Classroom with the giant plate he was holding. "Sandwiches are here!"
He walked through the door, and place the plate on the teachers desk.
Alright he said, he wouldn't say anything about Grilled cheese... he didn't promise not to say anything about Chocolate Mousse Cake! Loophole!
Jacob went back to sit with the White team... so what we're they doing now?
Rowan felt like she was letting her team down, but she really had no idea. Figures she would end up on the Ministry side when she really didn't even know what the Ministry was or did.
" Just think how you would feel if this happened in the Ministry today' Rex told Rowan. " you will get it' Rex smiled.

" Nice going "Rex told Rubiey"You and I have different opinions for the Ministry as I already told my point earlier" Rex said to Rubiey
" I also think the Ministry would shut down their doors" Rex told the professor.
" I think the Prime Minister and The Minister of Magic would deny anything happening with the help of the editor of the Daily Prophet." Rex explained to the professor.
( Purple Team)
Amy spoke up " i think that the minister of magic has the right to tell the muggle prime minister what's going on because well... he needs to know what's happening otherwise more bad things might happen" she said uncertainly she thought that was a good answer but wasn't sure
" Nice going "Rex told Rubiey"You and I have different opinions for the Ministry as I already told my point earlier" Rex said to Rubiey
" I also think the Ministry would shut down their doors" Rex told the professor.
" I think the Prime Minister and The Minister of Magic would deny anything happening with the help of the editor of the Daily Prophet." Rex explained to the professor.
( Purple Team)
"I'm not sure, Rex. I don't think the Prime Minister would deny that anything was happening; it's just that no-one would believe him, from a Muggle point of view. The Minister for Magic has a duty to inform the Muggle Minister of what is happening, especially when the life of Muggles is at stake. But how many Muggles do you know that would believe him if he came out saying that a group of evil wizards and witches destroyed the bridges, or an entire town was destroyed because of giants? That's why it would be safe to tell him." She paused.
"Back then, when it first happened, everyone already knew that You-Know-Who had returned, by this point, so the Minister didn't need to hide it from everyone. He only leant on the Prophet to avoid hte public going into disarray, and can you blame him? People were panicking enough that He had returned, they didn't need to be upset further by hearing deaths every day. But I agree it was wrong to do that. People had the right to know." She stopped, and took a deep breath. She wasn't sure if that was anything to do with what they were talking about, but oh well, she fancied a debate.
"It's not who you are that holds you back, it's who you think you are not."

Jacob went back to sit with the White team... so what we're they doing now?
Alice raised her eyebrows at the boy who carried in the huge plate of grilled cheeses. She was never sure why it surprised her that wizards would eat the same food as muggles. Although she did assume European food would be a bit different than American food.

Patroclus nodded in agreement with the school famous, Glitterpuff, but his eyes were really glued to the door way. Now that the professor had agreed on the Grilled Cheese, it was all Patroclus could think about.
"Wooo Hooo!" The boy sang, rubbing his hands together as Jacob returned. Snatching the first grilled cheese he could, Patroclus sunk his teeth in and began to eat.
Mid-grilled cheese, Patroclus thought of something else to add, " Muggle have grown up reading books that tell them that we are just stories, I bet you could walk up tp one and say, Hey I am wizard and they would just calll you crazzzzzy!"
Patroclus was crazy alright, crazy for Grilled Cheese!

"Well, I love your point" Rex told Rubiey. " We need to convince the other teams" Rex laughed. "We are both on the same Purple Team" Rex said to Rubiey.
"Michael Jackson," Fletcher mused, rubbing his chin. "Michael Jackson." He repeated the name once more for good measure and THEN the mental image of the guy with no nose cropped up. "Michael Jackson! Genius. That just might work!"
"Yeah I doubt they would," Fletcher shrugged. "We were just discussing that."

"Well, Professor," he started, "we think the Muggles would have reacted by trying to find a rational, normal, non-magical explanation for every odd occurence. They might have described Voldemort as some sort of 'terrorist' and compared his appearance to Michael Jackson's.

He nodded and looked back to his group to see if they had anything to add.

OOOOohhhhhh!!!! Ellie grabbed a one, or two, or four grilled cheese sandwiches. And hey, if anyone was gonna complain they didn't have one, they could just walk their little selves down to the kitchens. Jacob was on her team after all. That gave them first dibs, right? Right.
She took a bite and mulled all this over. "They did think we were crazy.Way back when. I think my great great great great grandpa or something was going to be tortured at a witch trial. Lucky he had his wand and apparated out. Rumor is, though, that that was how Nick died." That's what her dad said, at least. But he was in Gryffindor, he would know.
She went back to eating the sandwiches. They were excellent.

Heather madly kept taking down everything her group mates had said. History wasn't her best subject, but atleast, she should give it a try. She barely understood anything said, still, it wasn't any reason for her to just give up. She buried herself on taking down notes endlessly and staying alert and listen to everything her groupmates had said. Oh, why did she not listen to her parents about the history?
" Yed, we need to wor on our class assignments" Rex whispered to Fee.
"Well since I am on the Purple team, as the mistry we would have to protect all that are involved especailly us" Rex said to the professor. " We would probably have the paper write thee is nothing happening within the Minisrty' Rex told the professor. Hopefully more purple team would answer. Rexx is stumped right now
"True", Fee whispered smiling back.
"Well, i understand were Rubs is coming from but i also unbderstand your point of view", Fee said trying to explain what she thought,"i suppose the minister wouldnt tell the muggles cause they wouldnt believe him, but he wouldnt tell the wizarding world either. Foirst to avoid panic ans second to block it out. I mean who would want to know that under his or her captaincy something like a dark wizard become powerful? But isnt it the minister's fault then if the situation gets worse? I think so."
Fee took a deap breath.
Jacqueline took some sandwitches for her and her team. ''Here you go guys!Help yourself!'' she smiled and sat again. Then she continued taking notes with her white team.
