An empty street corner. Then... Ron peers round a building. A few yards off, two witches Mafalda Hopkirk and Charlotte Hawthorn approaches. Ron begins to walk, preceding both of the witches down the street, then kneels, fiddling with his shoelace. Zap!

The witches stiffen and fall... into the arms of Harry. Ron hurries back, picks up supposed Mafalda. He helps Harry hustle them out of view. They prop them up between two wizards, one tall, one short, both unconscious. Hermione is pouring Polyjuice Potion into four cups.

"Right. So let's do it. Who gets who? " Ron suggested

"Well, unless one of you fancies wearing a skirt..." you sassed

Hermione leans down, plucks a hair from the witch. Ron frowns as he surveys the three remaining wizards.

"Remember what we said. Keep your eyes down. Don't speak to anyone unless absolutely necessary. Act as normal as possible. Just do what you see everyone else doing.We do that -- and with a bit of luck -- we get ourselves inside. And then..." Hermione explained

"It gets really tricky." Harry said

"Correct." Hermione nodded.

Harry and Y/n look once more at the stunned quartet before them.

"This is completely mental." You muttered

"Completely, utterly, without question." You piped in.

"The world's mental. Come on, drink up. We've got a Horcrux to find." Ron said.

The quartet -- in their new identifies -- emerge. Ron as Reg Cattermole takes out an ID card.

"In case you're interested, I'm Reg Cattermole, Magical Maintenance Department." Ron said

"Mafalda Hopkirk, assistant in the Improper Use of Magic Office." Hermione said

"Charlotte Hawthorn ,head of the Support," you said, "looks like I'm engaged." You said eyeing the engagement ring on your finger.

Harry said ,patting his pockets "I'm nobody."

"You're somebody. Be careful." You warn him

Just then a skinny wizard strides by.

"Morning, Reg! Good luck today." He wished

"Oh... yeah. Thanks." Ron replies

Ron glances to Harry and Hermione, jerks his head toward the skinny wizard and they follow.

As the skinny wizard drops down the stairs into a public

toilet, the quartet appear.

"What do you reckon he meant by 'Good luck.'?" Ron asks

In the gents' toilet, Harry and Ron enter, glance around, then, seeing as everyone else is doing so, slip into cubicles.

"Harry enters. flushing sounds all around him. He looks to his left, sees a pair of booted feet climb into the next toilet, then looks to his right, sees Ron -- as Reg

Cattermole -- peering in.

"We flush ourselves in?" Ron asked Harry

"Apparently so." Harry answers

"That's bloody disgusting." As Reg/Ron's face disappears, Harry steps up onto his

toilet, dips his shoe in gingerly, then withdraws it. Completely dry. Stepping in fully, he reaches up, pulls the chain and is instantly sucked down

While in the Ladies' toilet Hermione and you enter, you look around and see witches going in the toliets and never returning back. You nudge Hermione, you give her 'what are we supposed to do?". 'Flush yourselves in' she mouthes back. You look at her disgusted but nod anyways
