293. THE MOVIE MADNESS!

15 Minutes before Ragnar arrived in the Room of Requirement.

"Mag, let's test this broom. I just created its all-new propulsion system that will allow you the highest speed with minimum effort. But I don't know if it will work." Emma excitedly requested him.

Magnus had just given her this project to keep her occupied, he never thought she would really make something out of it, but whatever it was, it was good.

"Sure, just get on it and try to fly around slowly." He agreed.

Without caring much, Emma got on top of her new broom and kicked off the ground. The broom slowly hovered and gained height slowly. She wasn't going to give much acceleration as she was afraid she might just hit the wall.

It was all good and simple at the start as she slowly showed progress. "How high and fast can it go?"

"It is supposed to fly at a speed of 350 kilometres per hour. [Canon Firebolts can travel fly at 241 kilometres per hour] It even has a special breaking charm to help you make a quick stop. But I still need to work on all those things. Oh, I'm also gonna have to design a special helmet for it, as you can't really fly so fast with naked eyes." She was explaining things about the broom.

*BOOM*

That was when suddenly a loud noise came from the frame of the broom and it suddenly stopped working. She started to free fall. Magnus quickly reacted and caught her in his arms.

And that was when Ragnar entered, "MAGNUS...."

...

Only after Magnus showed him the damaged broom did he really believe in him. Ragnar chuckled, "I thought I could give mum the good news and make her very happy."

Magnus stared daggers, "What did you come here for?"

"Oh, I found Voldemort's blood. Here it is. With this, you can most likely overcome the Dark Mark." Ragnar showed him a vial with dark red blood.

Magnus was elated, "THEN LET'S GO! EMMA, LEAVE THAT. Come with us, we're gonna heal Sev."

Emma nodded and followed them to the infirmary. Severus was alone, reading a book that Lily left behind for him. He told her everything, about why he couldn't meet her more as promised. She understood and gave him a friendly hug. Severus has been on cloud nine since then.

"SEV... Let's try it again." Magnus arrived, startling him.

"YES... If it still doesn't work we'll just chop your arm and regrow another one." Ragnar added.

"What?" X3

Magnus, Severus and Emma all three questioned at the same time. Ragnar acted like it was obvious, "What what? We have to get rid of that dark mark, I just had a backup plan, nothing else."

Severus looked at his arm, "Umm... how long would it take to regrow?"

Ragnar patted on his shoulder, "Hehe... don't worry, my friend. It will grow in a week. You'll just have to use your other hand to do the deed until then."

"What deed?" Emma asked them innocently.

Magnus facepalmed himself. Ragnar laughed, "Oh dear Emma. You're so innocent. You need to stop reading princess storybooks."

Emma didn't like being taunted like this, "Really? Then what should I read?"

"Play...ummm..." Magnus had already put his hand on Ragnar's mouth and shushed him.

Emma stomped, "Why won't you tell me? Mag, you said you won't ever keep secrets from me now."

Magnus felt a headache, "Are you sure? This won't be nice to know. I'm not telling you because it isn't worth knowing."

Emma confidently affirmed, "Yes, I want to know."

*Sigh* Magnus went close to her ear and whispered in it for a while, explaining that Ragnar was talking about porn magazines and wanking.

Ragnar and Severus silently kept looking at Emma's face, slowly her brows creased and then rose up and up. Soon her face became red in shame and embarrassment.

"AAA... PERVERTS!" She scolded them and ran away.

Magnus sighed, "Huh... Girls... Let's resume, Sev."

Magnus this time put the drop of Voldemort's blood on the wand's tip and then started doing the reversal of the spell. He slowly overcame the power of Voldemort.

"AAH... It's happening." Ragnar cheered.

Finally, the Dark Mark started showing signs of fading away. It made Magnus happy, "Sev, you can join the normal world once again."

Severus was delighted to see this. The first thing he was going to do was give his two brothers a big hug. They stood by him, risking their lives. Where can you find such friends in today's day and age?

Magnus focused on the dark mark and slowly burned it to nothingness. He didn't stop even after it wasn't visible to make sure it was completely gone.

And sometimes when he did that Severus felt something snap in his body, "I... I think it worked, Magnus. I just felt like some kind of a connection broke up."

*Sigh* Magnus took a relaxing breath and sat down on the bed, "Good. I was worried that we wouldn't have a way to confirm if the mark was gone or not."

*PAT*

Severus suddenly jumped and hugged Magnus and Ragnar both at the same time. He didn't cry, he had already done it too much and there was nothing left to pour out. In fact, he had a delightful smile on his face. Today, he could even subconsciously say that if one day it came to it, he'd gladly give up his life for Magnus or Ragnar.

Magnus and Ragnar patted his back. Magnus laughed, "Did you forget so fast? We're brothers for life."

"Hell yeah... No homo though." Ragnar added.

They ended their hug and stretched. Magnus jumped to exercise his body, "Let's prepare for the championship in France now. We gotta win it and make history."

Severus nodded, "Finally, I can focus on it. Previously I had to keep Voldemort in my mind and couldn't focus fully on my potions. Rag, I'm going to need your help with some things."

Magnus stopped them from leaving, however: "Let's meet professor McGonagall first. Can't leave her alone to be bored. I'm going to give her satellite television later. Her injuries are going to take a long time to heal."

"Who will teach us transfiguration until then?" Severus inquired.

Magnus cheekily smiled, "None other than our old headmaster. He used to teach transfiguration before his promotion."

The trio soon reached McGonagall's bed. She was still knitting the sweater and at the same time brewing some tea for herself with magic. She would always feel cheerful whenever Magnus would visit her. She was a married woman, but sadly a childless one. Due to some complications, she couldn't produce on. So, to her, all the students in the school were her kids. She was very strict with them but she would also feel very hurt whenever one of the students takes a bad path in life.

"Mr Prince, I presume Mr Pendragon has been able to deal with the Dark Mark?" She asked.

Magnus interrupted her though, "Come on, professor, I told you to call me Magnus. Ragnar here you can call whatever you want, Blondy, Dumbo, Charmless or anything else."

Ragnar immediately protested, "Sure, professor, you can call Magnus Little Dragon from now on."

Magnus' face frowned at that instant. He forgot that Ragnar had a higher ground when it came to name-calling. He quickly changed the topic. "Professor, I got rid of Severus' dark mark."

She nodded, "As expected from a talented student like you, Magnus. Now hurry and go to your classes. You can't miss too many."

She was still as strict as always. They said bye and left her. But they didn't go to the classes.

...

Slowly, the first week of November passed.

Something huge was going to happen in December. The Muggle world was going to get the world's most advanced and biggest hospital. It would have everything, from the smallest treatment to the biggest. The good part of this hospital was that it was divided into two sections. It would treat people under the NHS, but at the same time would cater to customers who were ready to pay upfront. It was meant to become the favourite hospital of the world's richest.

December 24th was the day Magnus had decided for its opening. By then, he would hopefully have a new sibling. Secretly, his plan was to get Grace to deliver in this new hospital.

The hospital in question was currently going through the finishing touches. But the normal working had already begun, starting from just a small building it had expanded. The Managing Director that Magnus had hired specifically for recruitment and smooth work did a great job.

All that was left now was announcing to the world that it was Magnus' pet project. This would not only reveal the hospital to the world, but also Magnus. That he was a highly talented boy. Though his wealth would still be kept a secret.

But, because the hospital's main infrastructure was created through magic, it was important to make people believe that this was nothing but a modern marvel. Hence, as always, a documentary was aired on BBC and a few more channels, showing how the hospital was created from scratch. They had previously made a documentary, but because they didn't account for what the end result would look like, the documentary was cancelled and a new one was made.

When Magnus saw it he couldn't help but laugh. The whole documentary felt like a comedy show with awkward moments. They all probably went unscripted with this. But their acting was top-notch since they already experienced it from some other projects. [A/N: Imagine a documentary but cringe, awkwardness and cinematography of "The Office"]

However, November wasn't a boring month, because a movie just got released in theatres across the world through Warner Brothers' channels. It was simply called "Cursed." It was the world's scariest horror movie. Created fully by Magnus' movie company MagicMade. This movie was going to confuse too many people, the special effects used in this were too real, in fact, they were truly real or illusions made from magic. But, such scenes were beyond current technology. There was even a scene where the main character was pulled out of the house in the woods by the ghost, ripping a huge chunk of the house and then snapping body parts of the character.

The script Magnus had come up with just on the go quickly became a huge hit and everyone wanted to see the movie. All well-known directors, as well as aspiring ones, went to see it to find out how the hell these special effects were made.

Currently, one of these aspiring ones sat in a completely packed movie theatre in Los Angeles. Around him, women hugged the arms of their lovers, but instead of taking advantage, their lovers were also invested in the movie and often screamed harder than their female counterparts.

This young director, however, was not here merely to watch it, because this was his 7th viewing of the movie in a single day. He sat with his assistant and looked at the big screen with sparkling eyes. The scenes of the ghost, the destruction of the house, the breaking of the body, the sound effects, it all looked and felt completely real.

In one scene, he stood up and shouted with passion, "HOW THE F*CK DID THEY MAKE THIS? HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE? WITH COMPUTERS?"

His assistant embarrassingly pulled him back into his seat. "Damn it, George. It's been your 7th rewatch, calm down."

But how could George Walton Lucas Jr. calm down? He felt his own dreams of creating a certain special effects movie became reinforced. He looked at his assistant who was also his wife, "MARCIA! GET ME TICKETS TO LONDON!"
