So from what Cinna could gather they were muggles. Very upset muggles too. There friend was missing? They would explain why they were so upset. But none of them would know where a missing muggle would be. Muggles wasn't even suppose to be here, right? Let alone be able to used them here too? Weird. She gave Lux a small smile.

Since she was here. She may as well stay. She didn't to leave Lux here now especially after her saying that she had found something that they thought could be the missing muggles items. She turned to look at professor C went he spoke. Giving him a small nod. She put her hand around her wand and pulled it out of her pocket. She pointed it at the closest muggle to her "Stupefy!" She looked over to see that Abby had done the same.

Could it really be that the charms had faulted and muggles somehow found their way into Hogsmeade? Whatever it was, something was not sitting right with Saul as he moved in closer to the group, his hand trying to keep an inconspicuous grip on his wand.

And then, before he knew it, spells were flying. If Saul gave it much thought, he'd likely agree with the teacher's decision to Stupefy the presumed muggles before things got any further out of hand, but there wasn't time to think and his wand arm instantly shot out as his reflexes took over. One, two, three muggles were stunned by the adult and two children, he'd take care of the fourth.

"Stupefy!"

He was walking towards the group as his mind tried to figure it all out. In all his years here he had never seen a muggle enter and now there looked to be four. How could that be? His wand wrapped his hand around his wand and was just about to loosen his grip when he heard the professor.


WHAT THE HELL

He looked around in a panic, how did this go from walking over to spells. "Just hit the muggles not each other." He had nearly been hit by one as he lifted his own wand. ""Stupefy"

Jason had turned towards the girl, eyeing her with a mixture of disbelief and suspicion. "And where is this camera? Did you ---"

A blink. A turn back to the first adult. Bright red coloring of cheeks. "What did you just call m----" The words cut off in a high pitched squeak. Mouth open in a silent shout, arms trapped tightly against his sides, he went down like a 2x4 plyboard.

The rest of the company blinked. And then all chaos broke loose.

The triangle woman screamed before she too went rigid and dropped. The square woman tried running before freezing up too, arms over her head in a flailing motion.

The last, the oval man, had been rapidly snapping pictures on his phone. Frozen in place with his thumbs on the lit screen, his eyes wide like two tiny saucers. He too went down, sending up a shower of powdered snow.

Four muggles now lie immobilized in the middle of Hogsmeade High Street, staring at students and adults alike with unblinking eyes. The light of accusation frozen within.

Saul took a deep breath, before looking around at the unconscious people, then back up at the still-standing crowd. They needed to contain things so the situation didn't get further out of hand. There were already too many people in the street, they didn't need a full-blown panic. Looking at Hops, he thought he knew what they needed to do and began to levitate one of the stunned and unconscious people.

"A'right, everyone, stay calm. I think we should move our visitors to the Hogshead Inn, so we can contact the authorities and find out exactly what's goin' on. A little help? We should move quick." Probably shouldn't attract too many people so as not to cause alarm. Then once they were there, Hops could take charge of the situation. Still levitating the man, he walked swiftly towards the Inn.

How did this happen? Harold was watching as the defenseless muggles fell. The spells seemed to have hit them and it didn't seem like anyone else was hit. He looked over the others and around the street. Thankfully chaos hadn't broke out and the muggles were unconscious. He heard Saul give some orders and nodded in agreement. "Professor could you get that one and girls if you don't mind helping with these two." He pointed at the other two muggles.

Looking at the other children that had been around, "No one saw any other muggles around did they?" He had to be sure. If one other muggle had vanished this could be a very bad situation.

Turning away from the crowd he lifted his wand and sent a patronous out. The Ministry was going to have to be informed that muggles were in Hogsmeade and that they needed assistance in the Hogshead.

Once that was finished Hops turned back to help with the muggles and started for the Inn.

All of this had happened so fast there were two shopkeepers that showed up right in time too. They had also Looking around to check to see that all four of the muggles had been stunned for sure. She heard one of the shopkeepers say something about moving the muggles out of the street. That was probably a good idea.

They sixth year nodded "Yes I can help." She pointed her wand at one of the women muggles to levitate her to the Hogs head. Cinna was stills shocked that the muggles had gotten in passed all of the charms and enchantments of the town. How was that even possible? So many questions. Cinna figured that the Ministry was be contracted and that theu would soon be there. Never a normal year at Hogwarts was it?

Walking quickly behind the shopkeeper still levitating the muggle, going into the direction of the hogs head.

Lux found herself standing closer to Cinna and Professor Culloden in case things got really bad. They would have each other's backs for sure.

Before she had a chance to reply to the muggle's next question, he and his fellows were dropping like sacs of potatoes.

Oh. Well then.

Seemed she had missed the boat on the stunning spells, but she could help with the cleanup. "I'll help too!" Yeah, she would work with Cinna! Following behind her, she levitated one of the muggles. It was a weird feeling because she had never done anything like this before. She hoped that the muggles would be okay when they woke up because she didn't want anyone getting hurt.

Thankfully, everyone acted quickly and they took care of it without much attention, even though the muggles did try to get away. So he just nodded at the shopkeepers and since every muggle was taken, he just followed them to the Hog's Head.

Leaving the back alley, Micky then walked back to the main street of Hogsmeade. He didn't really find anything back there. This was such a mystery and he's like a muggle detective. Hehehe. He grabbed his sunglasses from his pocket and put it on. Now he really felt like a detective, a handsome one of course. Feel free to throw up if all of you disagreed.

Whistling, the Korean guy looked around the street with his wand ready on his hand. Now he had no idea where to start the inspection. Everything looked so normal around here. Just some Hogsmeade local folks and some Hogwarts students wandering around. Speaking of, maybe he could bump into his little brother Jackie here. That guy didn't come back home for Christmas since he wanted to focus on OWLs.

Back to work stuff. Where the hell was the Charlie guy? Was he lost or something?

Charles frowned at his DMAC 'partner', commenting about his suit was one thing but calling him 'Charlotte' was rather immature of him. Not surprising from the way he acted.Wearing sunglasses,really? He rolled his eyes at the man. Hmph...why did he have to be stuck with this...this...even he had no idea what to call of him. Clearly by the looks of things, he seemed to be at a lost in this investigation.Typical...

He left his 'partner' to do his own roaming while he got to his. He searched for trails that could lead the muggles here.Where did they come from? He had to be smart in this, there could be a path they missed and he needed to find it. He muttered a spell that could make his search more easier. Had the muggle-repelling charm been faulted or someone led them in on purpose? They were told that the muggles were looking for their missing friend...but wait...was there a connection between the muggle items that were found back in the backalley months ago? It could be...how else would they be there in the first place.

Oh, there he was. Charlie the suited guy. Why he had to rolled his eyes and gave that look to him? Easy peasy dude... Kang Micky knew that was handsome, thank you very much. But no need to envy him, okay? Hehehe... "Why so serious, Charlie?" The Korean guy asked and gave his handsome grin. Seriously, this guy was too serious, cannot deal with his jokes and... blah. Not a cooperative type. Well, let's see if this investigation could be done well.

Okay, back to his investigation duty. By using his wand, Micky tried to detect the faulty of concealment charm that protected this village. Still it's a mystery how could muggles could enter this place. Maybe somebody had broken the charm on purpose or something? Dunno. Even when he was still in Hogwarts, he'd never heard that muggles could enter Hogsmeade. Nope, and no way.

If Charles could have his way, he would be conducting the investigation alone in peace. "Why so serious, Charlie?" said mister wise guy with the shades on. He had to bite back his tongue from correcting his 'partner' about his name again. Shaking his head in exasperation, opting not to answer him as he continued his search. He had his wand pointed at the direction of the alley ways in between the shops. He walked a little bit further ahead, he was puzzled of how the muggles were able to come through the charmed barriers.Swallowing his pride, he called back to his 'partner',"Did you find anything yet?"

Like the back alley, things feel off.

One thing that is clear is that there are no hexes or any sort Dark magic involved. At least as far as magical barriers and concealment charms are concerned.

What is also clear is that the wizarding village is exposed and these enchantments all but gone.

He's ignoring him.

SERIOUSLY???

Meh, this guy was so... Whatever. Let's just focus on work, Michael! The Korean guy still inspected around the main street of Hogsmeade and perhaps they could find something suspicious around here. Yep, he did say they, no matter how... unpleasant that newbie suited guy (because he couldn't take his joke), he's still being professional and they're now working as partners. Like it or not.

Micky tried observe around by using stealh-sensoring charm. "I don't think like there's a curse involved here." He gave an opinion. "Well uh... I feel like there's something wrong with the concealment and muggle-repelling charm." He was sure but... not really sure. Maybe the bossman should be here to see and gave an opinion too about it.

Charles stopped in his tracks and turned around. What did Micky mean there was something wrong with the concealment and muggle-repelling charm? It couldn't be...wasn't it supposed to remain intact? He walked towards the perimeter and waved his wand to check as well. Charles was surprised that he didn't see the usual signs of a magical barrier been put up in this area. Baffled upon their discovery...he needed to make sure if this strange occurrence only enclosed to one part of the area they found. Charles ran up to another perimeter and waved his wand again.It was the same for this area too! What in the world?!

Charles called to his 'partner',what was his name again?! Mike? Michael?
"Your name is Michael,right? Can you check over that area and see if the concealment charm is still intact?" he asked and added,"..if it's not,then I can tell you right now...this place will be a great tourist attraction for muggles one day so let us not delay reporting this to our head,come on!"If they were to delay any longer, Hogsmeade could be already expose to the muggle world and it would become a big problem later. It was too big of an area for them to cover all areas of Hogsmeade to perform the concealment charm now. They would require a lot of help from his department for this.

If the concealment charm is off, sure that muggles would invade this place soon and Hogsmeade would be no longer a wizarding village. This was no good. He should tell the bossman. NOW.

"Yeah, but people know me better as Micky. Kang Micky." He said to Charles. Unlike that guy, he wasn't very fussy with nicknames, but he often went by Micky or Kang (because he usually introduced himself as Kang Micky, so people thought that Kang was his first name). "I'll tell him." Micky then cast a patronus and sent it to Aron. A silvery-smoke siberian husky dog then flew to the Hog's Head where the bossman was.

And now they waited.

Pushing open the back door to the Hog's Head, it took Aron a few seconds longer to march his way over to his employees. But he was here now, wide eyed and expecting further explanation as to what that patronus had been on about.

"Quietly," he warned, ushering them both to follow him off to the side to talk.

Charles just nodded because really it wasn't the time to be discussing about his 'partner' nickname. A dire consequences would be happening soon if they did not seal Hogsmeade in time.He watched Micky's patronus ran all the way back to Hogmeade so it could relay their urgent message.

When their head department arrived, they were pulled to the side in order for them to be discreet in the matter. Charles started explaining immediately," Sir, we suspect the concealment charms that has been protecting this village is no longer there, we have checked one side of the perimeter, no magical barrier detected...its too big of an area to cover the whole perimeter,Sir...we need the whole department to help us put up the barrier again,what should we do?" he asked. Charles was still puzzled who could have done such a thing. The perpetrators who did this had certainly break the International Statute of Secrecy, he couldn't think of any powerful wizard that could have done this single-handedly.

No need to wait for a long time because finally the bossman was here. Lowering his voice, Micky said to that man. "Now we can see how they could be here." He meant the muggles of course. "But we haven't find why the concealment is off. No detection of dark arts around. What should we do? I mean, should we find the cause or recast the concealment cham again?" The Korean guy eagerly asked.

No longer there? What?!

Aron simply stood there for a moment, squinty eyed, and the pair for a moment while he allowed this thought to process. No Dark magic. Nothing malicious involved - which he would confirm for himself momentarily considering they were both rookies as far as the department head was concerned. Then what was left?

Rubbing the back of his neck, the Australian chewed on the inside of his right cheek. "No time for that," he grunted, retrieving his wand immediately. "We'll have to take care of some initial concealment charms now and come back in full force later. Charles, you take care of the South end. Micky, West side. I'll handle the North end and we'll meet on the East side of Hogsmeade.""

He was going to do a bit of his own investigation along the way as well. See if his skilled hand could see something that they had missed.

Once they were done with some basic concealment charms he could go back and check on the muggle situation. Hopefully the Obliviator team would be done by them so they could escort them out of the area.

Right, no time at all. They should put the barrier back up again as soon as possible.Charles nodded promptly,"Of course,sir...I'll get to it. Leave it to me,I'll meet you two at the East side soon then," Charles turned and proceed to the south end of the street. He stopped right at the brink of the street while cautiously glancing around if anyone suspicious watching his movements from behind. Seeing none so far, he effortlessly cast all types of non-verbal basic concealing charms along the perimeters. It took him a lot of his will power and concentration to ensure no muggles would ever enter the wizarding place again. Once done, he recast another set of muggle-repelling charms to make sure the shield remained untouchable. He maximised the barrier area with a spell he learned back in his university days too so every part and corner was covered with the concealment charm. He hoped his spell would be enough to cover the whole South end of the street, they would need to come back again to strengthen the charm once more.

With a firm nod Aron departed, his long legs helping him cross Hogsmeade swiftly until he arrived near the north end of town. Scratching his head firming with his fingers, the department head grunted to himself as he set to work checking on the enchantments. Not that he did not trust the words of his employees, but he wanted to see things for himself. Especially with Hogwarts looming in the distance.

Seren's maternal instincts had rubbed off on him in regards to the school.

Could their missing muggle...perhaps had found his way to Hogwarts?

Like the bossman had instructed, The Korean boy then walked to the west side of Hogsmeade and put on the concealment charm. He trusted both of them, right? Because being his employee for a year, the department seemed hard to believe something unless he proved it by himself. Well, never mind.

Micky cast some basic concealment charm around the west side. Hopefully that it's strong enough to conceal and protect Hogsmeade from the muggles' invasion. Also, hopefully that they weren't too late to do this. There were no muggles anymore, right? He hoped so. Once the concealment charm had set, he continued with the muggle-repelling charm. Nobody could break this again, hopefully. Of course he was 100% sure about his charm skills but the old one was so powerful and now it could be tampered, broken, or whatever. Sigh.

The spells cast by the three Accidents and Catastrophes staff began to repair the mysterious circumstances surrounding the magical barrier around Hogsmeade. While not as strong as before, it would do for now in keeping any more muggles from entering.

Strangely enough for the Department Head, the Concealing charms grow stronger and stronger as he moved closer in the direction of Hogwarts. In fact, should move close enough to the school to see, they would find that the all the magic strengthened and intensified beyond anything seen or felt in recent history.
