The Magic in Schitts Creek (Originally Named: Schitts Creek)

Family Dinner: 3

Evan and Hermione walked hand-in-hand over to Jocelyn and Roland's house.  Hermione knocked on the door and David opened it in his sweater and apron.

"What?" David asked, breathlessly. Evan raised his eyebrows.

"Can't we check on our favorite half-brother and stepmother?" asked Evan with a smirk. Hermione rolled her eyes.

"We wanted to know if you wanted help," Hermione said giving Evan a sharp glare. An owl hooted above the two. Evan looked up and a letter was dropped into his waiting hands. Evan opened the letter.

Minister,

       At 9:30 AM last Wednesday, a St. Mungos patient named Gilderoy Lockhart escaped. Later that day, we were alerted of a mass muggle murder. 28 muggles were found dead on Oxford Street in London. Team Delta from the Auror Office was sent. Lockhart was successfully captured but his magic is out of control. His trial in front of the Wizingamont is today at 4:15 in Trail room 14.

                                                                                                                         Sincerely,                                                                                                                                                                                        Justus Pilliwickle                                                                                                                                Department of Magical Law Enforcement

"I have to go," Evan said sadly. Hermione frowned.

"Why?" Hermione asked. Evan began to laugh.

"Lockhart escaped St. Mungos." He informed, finally pulling himself together.

"You're kidding." Hermione gasped.  Evan grinned.

"Nope." He popped the 'P'.

"What did he...Wait, I don't want to know." Hermione stated.

"Are you two just going to stand there?" David asked annoyed. Evan flushed and David stepped aside for the two. Moira was at the stove with her reading glasses on holding a piece of paper. She looked up.

"Oh, hello." She greeted. Evan took out his wand and pointed it at his forehead. He dragged it down to his feet. His sneakers became black combat boots that had his black pants tucked into them. There was a white undershirt and a cravat tied around his neck. Evan's cloak was black and green. Small silver snakes adorned the bottom. He then pointed his wand at his head and a black fedora with a green stripe appeared on his head. Hermione adjusted his hat and he kissed her nose.

"Cheers!" Evan stepped into the fireplace with a handful of strange green powder. He threw it on the floor, "Ministry of Magic." The green flames engulfed him and he disappeared.

"Oh, good, now I see bubbles," Moira muttered, "David! What does burning smell like?" Hermione looked at the pot and took out her wand.

"Mrs. Rose, would you like my help?" offered Hermione. Moira smiled kindly at her.

"No thank you, I can do this." Hermione slipped her wand back into her pocket. David sat on the couch dragging her with him.

"So," David said with a small smile on his face, "Tell me things. You two finished planning the wedding?" Hermione smiled at David. The two have gotten close, like brother and sister.

"Well, we wanted to keep a Gaunt family tradition and do it the old way, but I wanted it by a lake near my house," Hermione stated vaguely.
