Wizards vs. Muggles (Free-form)

Jakob spoke up, "That just makes it more exciting...everyone around you might be an enemy. Maybe we should find every wizard and kill them."

Warren raised an eyebrow and turned to face the man who had been silent for the majority of their trip, "Care to enlighten us on why you're suggesting genocide?"

Alex lowered his eyebrows at Jakob. "What are you, some kind of psychopath? I thought our orders were incapacitate and arrest with as few casualties as possible" Alex said, shaking his head. "What sort of background do you have to be here anyway? You don't look very military to me" he commented.

"Alex, this is probbaly your first time doing something like this so let me explain something; when it comes down to it we're here to capture or kill. Judging by what I've seen so far we'll probbaly be doing more of the latter."

He stood up and ran his fingers through his hair; "That being said, we're not gonna shooting anything that moves", Warren spoke at Jacob, "You go off the deep end and I'll tag you myself." Warren then got up and walked in the direction of the bathroom.

Jakob smiled, "I am just a guy who got involved in this whole thing. I am no psychopath, I just see things a different way from you guys. People, to me, are neat little things, like...rocks."

"So you see people as inferior to you? Sounds exactly like a psychopath to me" Alex said, glaring at Jakob. "And you don't just get involved with an organization like R&U. You must have some kind of experience or they wouldn't have ever let you aboard" he continued, still glaring...

After a few moments, a smile cracked on his lips, and he started chuckling. "Warren Peace, haha! Is that seriously his real name?" Alex said, then started laughing outright.

"Yeah, you could say I have had some experience and training. When I was ten, my grandpa put me through quite some training, and by now, I have been with a little military program. You could say I...like my guns. This group saw my potential, and let me right on in...so, you guys have any hobbies?"

"Well my folks must of been mind-readers because look at me now" Warren said as he walked down the aisle. "Now before you say anything else, look around and tell me if you see an ER anywhere"

Warren slid back into his seat and turned to face Jacob, "Sociopathy; just what we need on this team. You wouldn't happen to have a manifesto written would you; I could use some in-flight reading. " he said with a bemused look on his face. "We've know each other for all of 10min, and we already have issues. BTW, Alice likes me beard" he said, while tucking a small post-it note in his pocket.

"So that really is your name? Your parents must have had quite the sense of humor to name you 'Warren'" Alex said, still laughing. He stopped abruptly though, and looked at Warren, confused. "Who's Alice? And what about your beard?" he asked.

"Alice...happens to be our ever so friendly stewardess; apparently she'll be staying in country for a bit, figure I'll give her a call." Warren said with humor in his voice "As for the beard; you might as well start growing one now, the clean-shaven thing isn't gonna do, you'll stick out like a sore thumb."

"Huh?" Alex said, grabbing his chin. "But I like being clean-shaven, what do you mean 'stick out like a sore thumb'?" he asked, still holding his chin as if to protect himself from suddenly growing a beard.

"It never hurts to blend in; the less you look like you work for Uncle Sam the better off you'll be; might want to ditch the uniform while you're at it." stroking his jaw he turned back to Alex "Perma-stubble isn't as bad as you think; ha, give me a few more weeks and I'll get back to lumberjack levels."

"So how'd you get roped into this?"

"But, whiskeys still look just like us, they just have weird clothes when not in public last I knew" Alex said, letting go of his chin and relaxing.

"Anyway, I got roped in when some commanding officers came to our base asking for anyone who had actually seen Whiskeys in action. When the questions and stuff were over, I was approached and asked if I wanted to volunteer for a special unit, and I took it" Alex explained.

"Anyway, why 're you so interested in Hogwarts?" she said taking a list from her pocket and making sure everything was checked. "And on that note, We haven't introduced ourselves properly, I'm Lita."

"As it so happens I have business at Hogwarts, Ms. Lita." Jay replied. "I've somethings to discuss with your head master. In fact, I'll be accompaning you on the train."

With another swallow she finished her third drink.

"'kay then, care to tell about it? Are you some sort of exchange teacher... or is romance behind this whole issue?" Lita sipped her drink " You know what? I bet I could teach 'muggle intel' to Aurors, half these guys don't know what a gun is, or how to get in a subway, or what a tank is, or even a computer. After school ends, I'm gonna make a summer business out of it, And I'll pay for a new piano with that money."

-After listening to the conversation, the teenager sitting near them turns from his seat and speaks up-

"Harry Potter, imprisoned? That's a first...and it just so happens that I have business at hogwarts as well. Mcgonagall has called me back to translate some ancient runes. So as it turns out, I must also accompany you on the train."

"Ok then... all of us have to get in the train.,, What's your name?" She asked looking at the young man "Since we're sharing a train ride, might as well get to know each other some more."

"Oh, Jack. Jack Green. I study and translate ancient runes and have gained high marks in transfiguration, I have also passed my apparation test."

-He demonstrates by apparating into a vacant chair on the opposite side of her and then apparating back to his chair-

"Nice," said Jay as she motioned for another refill. "So you're a returning graduate? What, aer you a TA or something?"

She wasn't even sure if they had Teacher Assistants in Britain. But from everything she knew of Hogwarts, despite its overall weirdness, it was as up to date a magical school as her own back in the states.

"No, as I've told you Mc Gonagall wants me to translate some texts found in the gryphindor common room, but I guess she wants me for something like a TA or to temporarily fill in for a teacher as she could have just asked the Ancient runes tutor."

"Awesome, I just might take the class because I think you're cool... Jack, don't you think it's weird for muggles to declare war on the wizarding world? Their whole motivation is that we're 'dangerous'."

Lita almost choked on her drink as she said that.

"Everyone's dangerous, any muggle could choke me to death, and I'm not freaking out about it." She aparated standing beside the table and lifted her hands as if she was being arrested.

"It's not like we have adamantium claws... or maybe it is...". She chuckled, apparating on her chair again.

They didn't seem to get the joke.

"Hm..yes..anyway, I've also been hearing that there is a lot of commotion about Harry being imprisoned, especially at Hogwarts. I agree with you on the matter that the muggles have declared war with us, it's mad, they think they can win? Oh, I despise them."

(My character is beeing a bit friendly and talkative, probably the drinks..)

-He gestures for another drink-

"The guy's a superstar, It's only normal. I'm still hopin' he gets out of it." Lita drank the last of her first drink.

"A war as pointless as this one can't be won..." she moved her fingers to her forehead and groaned

"What would winning BE? We've been co-existing for hundreds of years, what difference would a killing spree from both sides against the other do? Are they gonna start looking for weapons of mass destruction? Violating civil rights? There's really no point to this whole thing. What can anyone gain from it?"

"They're scared, and I don't blame them. Put yourself in their position, as reckless and as ignorant as they are, they're still human. You wouldn't like it if you had no power to protect yourself against magical people who can inflict terrible torture and kill people and you've only just learnt about them."

-He downs his drink-

"Although, I don't understand why it has to be solved with violence."
