Hp: The Outcast.

So I'm magical Zuckerberg now?

Getting up earlier than usual I didn't see anyone, maybe all of them are still asleep. I got into the garden and started to stretch to warm up my body. I looked at the skies above and the clouds were forming up in the heavens ready to snow. I wanted to get my running done before it started to snow. I started my morning run and started wondering about Christmas as it was just around the corner.

My holidays would be over within a few days and I would be back in Hogwarts. There were a few things that I needed to do before I left for school again, one was to create as much buzz about the singles album as I possibly could, getting my album ready or as much as I could and lastly the network TV deal with the ministry was something that was the most important for me right now.

If I could build one I would have a way to control the people subtly but there were still a lot of things to do. The snow had started to fall and I decided to pick up my pace. I walked inside to my room and I saw that Daphne wasn't here. I guess she woke up and left. "Well, that saves me an awkward conversation." I removed my t-shirt and continued my exercise.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After I was done with my exercise, I made my way downstairs for breakfast. I saw Florian outside and he stopped me and said, "Jon, if you can follow me to the study there is something I would like to discuss."

I looked at him for a moment thinking if he knew. I followed him to the study while he asked, "I hope you had a good sleep..." I looked at his back, I cleared my throat and said, "Yeah, I did, I was pretty tired last night..."

He hummed, "Good..." We reached the study and he snapped his fingers and poured me some tea and sat down. I sat across him and he looked at me and leaned in, with a serious look in his eyes that made me gulp. "The ministry has rejected our proposal."

I sighed in relief which got a surprised look on Florian but before he could question it I asked, "Why?"

He snorted and said, "Because the ministry thinks that the network might be intercepted by the muggles which would endanger the statute of secrecy..."

I looked at him and asked, "Then why do they permit radios and all?"

He sipped some tea and answered the question with some degree of frustration, "The ministry says that even if muggles picked up on a wizarding radio station it might be... not so believable, which is honestly stupid if you ask me... but there is nothing we can do about it. Even Fudge won't budge on it..." He sighed and looked at me, "It seems that might not be able to do anything... sorry Jon."

I leaned back and felt defeated, this was the first time I felt like this. He came and sat next to me and patted my back and said, "We'll figure something out... Jon." I sighed and nodded.

He then pulled out a cd case out of his coat and showed it to me. It had a hand drawn picture of a prince and princess. I took it in my hand and he said, "That's the cover for the single's album. Lizz picked it. It's on sale from today. In Britain and USA.

I sighed and said, "Let's hope this thing goes well."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The rest of the day was just alright, I helped Lizz with some music and melody. She recorded a few songs one of which was You Belong with me. The song worked out pretty well for her. And speaking of songs and stuff, the single album released today and it has caused quite the impact. People were eager to heard what Lizz Allen had put out after breaking away from her band. Let's hope that people like it.

I walked into my room and I found Daphne there reading a magazine and blasting rock music. I looked at her and asked, "So you're just going to hang in my room."

She looked at me and asked, "What?"

I sighed and pointed my wand at the stereo and lowered its volume and asked, "What are you doing here?"

She looked at me and said, "Do I need a reason?~" She pouted and said, "I'm hurt."

I looked at her and said, "Ugh, Don't act like that, I'm tired."

She scoffed and said, "That's not fair, you do that shit with me."

I laid in my bed and said, "Yeah, because I can do it and not look like that."

She groaned and said, "Jerk." I looked at her and she put the magazine down and said, "Fine, I'm here to check on you."

I sat up and tilted my head and she said, "I heard from Mom that the TV network proposal fell through." She looked at me with compassion and I sighed and said, "Yeah and I'm doing fine..."

She scrunched her eyebrows and said, "You have a habit of getting grumpy when things don't go your way... and it looks like you're grumpy."

I scoffed and said, "I'm not grumpy, if anything I'm relieved."

She looked at me confused and I explained, "I would have more work if that thing went through... do you know how hard it would have been? The hiring alone would have driven me crazy. I mean I would need, Camera men, Directors, Set and Costume designers, Writers! Those are a nightmare and worst of all actors..."

She looked at me with a smile and I said, "Okay, fine... I'm not happy about it. But what can I do? If not for those dumb SOB I would've had it..." I laid back and said, "But I also get it would be hard to maintain the secrecy of the wizarding world if we did make it."

She sat next to me and asked, "How does that work?"

I looked at her and I said, "It's very technical... but to put it simply, the audio and video are transformed into signals and then transmitted to the station which relays the signals to the Tv."

She then looked at me and said, "So what if you made that?"

I looked at her and said, "What? You want me to make a magical signal?"

She nodded and said, "Yeah, if it's magical. The muggles won't be able to pick it and you would get the permission to make a network."

I looked at her like she was crazy and said, "It would require like a but ton of work... because I'm pretty sure no one has done anything like this. I don't even know where to begin."

She just shrugged her shoulders and said, "If it was easy it would've already been made.... And I'm pretty sure that there might be some thing in that library of Salazar Slytherin. And if I know you, which I do quite a bit. You are very annoying and stubborn... so might as well, put it in making something, rather than throughing a coup."

I hummed and said, "Would be easier to do a coup... you know."

She flicked my forehead and laughed and I said, "But where should I start?"

She looked at me and said, "How about you start with audio? You have been working with it for some time now."

I nodded and said, "Not a bad idea..." I looked at her and said, "Thanks."

She smiled and for a moment just for a moment I felt something very odd.
