Back in the human world, Benjamin had devised a plan and had now set out to put it into motion. He placed a soda can beside the principal’s door and knocked on the door a few times. Then, he hid behind a convenient crevice within the wall to peek from and wait until she eventually came out. Once she opened the door and foolishly took the can of soda, Benjamin would use his rod to— wait, why wasn’t the wand in his pockets?

Oh no, don’t tell me... Benjamin thought, his eyes widened in shock.

At their secret base, Harry and Chi-Chi lied down on the yellow-green couch watching TV. The show right now had some gorgeous high-class Butler trying to solve a murder mystery at his new job. He worked in a mansion called The Grace Bourne Manor and tried to protect his ‘Master’, all while not losing his sanity in the process (with the help of his mentor, of course).

The episode played a rerun where the main character dealt with a warp inside a cookie jar and a spellbook belonging to one of the residents.

Harry and Chi-Chi got invested and tried to hang onto every word, but whenever the commercials pop up, and they played a stupid ad regarding sitcom tropes and hair or makeup products, the two would get bored quickly.

“I don’t like this,” Chi-Chi mumbled, slumping against her seat.

“No worries, sis. I’ll keep changing channels until they stop and return to the program.” Harry replied, hitting some buttons on the remote.

The two hit the device on accident while playing around as the remote switched programs on the TV.

Curious and intrigued, they both went over to inspect, wondering if it was magic or not. Eventually, it hurt their eyes and heads, so they watched from a distance farther away, on the couch.

They said nothing to each other for a while as they kept switching channels until Harry found a cooking channel and Chi-Chi told him to stop there.

“Hey, Chi-Chi,” He said, breaking the brief silence. “Do you feel like we forgot something?”

“Like what?” She asked while continuing to stare at the television.

Harry turned and pointed to a wand that rested right beside the couch. “Well, that wand down there, wasn’t Master supposed to take that with him?”

“Was he? I don’t remember...” Chi-Chi replied, this time turning to face her brother.

“Well, shouldn’t we give that—?”

“Harry, didn’t you hear what he said earlier? We’re supposed to stay here and make sure no one finds out about our new secret base.

I’m sure he'll be okay without us getting in his way...”

“I suppose you’re right; after all, this is Master we’re talking about here.”

“Exactly! Now check and see if that Butler show is back on...”

“Oh, you’re right; it should be by now!”
