The plan. Duncan gripped the box in his pocket with one hand, the other hand reaching into his other pocket to take out his wand. He didn't need to do what he was planning on doing, not when there were so many Muggles nearby, but he was a man who liked precaution and this was simply one way to cover up his tracks. While Melanie did her thing, he moved away from her and quietly made his way towards a certain familiar face.
It was then that a number of things happened at once.
There was a loud screeching sound as a violent red bus came to a sudden stop in the middle of the street. A number of people nearby turned to look at the commotion and the bus driver started arguing with a random muggle. While all of this was going on, Duncan slipped the box out of his pocket, held it up close to Kaysha's face and blew gently. The powdery contents were already blowing towards the Muggle Studies professor's face but Duncan wasn't lingering around to watch. He slipped back towards his previous position next to Mel as quickly as he could and lifted the charm on his body.
"It's been done. Now we wait for the next phase..."

I hope he doesn't hurt anyone!'' she said in a slightly indignant tone to no one in particular. What was even more surprising, was that the bus sped off as soon as it came. What even...?
Still caught up in the now over pandemonium, it was too late to do anything much about the sudden substance that shot to her face. The woman went into a series of harsh coughing. It was over as quickly as the crazy driver and his bus situation.
Kay felt a wave of seriousness wash over her. The smiling, pleasant face woman you saw earlier was gone. She was replaced with someone who had her mouth in a thin line. The warmth in her personality was gone and you're bound to feel her gaze icy if her blue eyes fixed upon you.
Her hand was creeping into the light purple satchel that was draped around her shoulder. From within another bag was fished out. It was a clear, plastic bag and those close enough might recognise a few of the items for they were items that were stolen from a few chosen Professors and students over the course of previous terms.
Just like before, Kaysha used dark magic to aid her in the possession of students. No longer was it limited to students whom had objects stolen from them. You wouldn't see the magic happening but you are sure to feel it. OOC: Soooo. Who's up for some fuuuun? 
Previously possessed kiddos and those that want to join in on the chaos are now possessed (thanks to Kay). Actions to be RPed by the possessed: blank stares, quietly muttering the cult slogan- ''EXPOSE THE INEQUALITY" or "END THE STRUGGLE'', kiddos slowly revealing their wands. Have fun!
It was all going well. She had seen a few of the students catch, slightly, what Duncan had been doing, but it wouldn't matter soon. She pulled out her wand, not caring if the muggles saw it. Again, soon enough it would't matter. She turned to Duncan and smiled. "All is going well - " That was, until some of the Hogwarts professors stuck their noses in. However, she thought she'd be the same kind of panic stricken if her students seemed to be put in danger. None of her favorite students back at Ilvermorny would come of harm from this. And some of these students wouldn't come to harm, either, and she wanted to tell them that. She didn't.
She aimed her wand at the back of one of the professor's back [Kalen] and was about to inflict either something illegal, or just slightly terrifying, and she was trying to decide
which when -
SPOILER!!: Kalen

Kalen glanced around one more time and moved his head to indicate their way. “They will be fine, and the last thing they want is their Professors hovering around.” He was trying to reassure his colleague that everything would be okay.
Famous last words maybe?
For no sooner than he had said them a bus came careening down the street and Kalen was instantly on guard, for the laid back teacher, he suddenly felt a strong urge to gather everyone to make sure they were okay! Now who was being protective?
He turned to Laurel “Should we go check on them?” He asked her softly, perhaps it was his healer brother rubbing off on him, whatever it was, he wanted to make sure no student was harmed.
But his question was never answered for suddenly Kay started to act a little weird. They were standing next to her and all. And wait.. were those the twin teachers from Ilvermorny?
Kalen ran a hand through his dark hair as his fellow professor took out a bag filled with stuff.. And.. Wait was that his book? Kalen had been looking for that everywhere since it has disappeared the term before! Inconspicuously of course, lest he cause any panic.
And then before he could blink, kids were starting to take out their Wands and chant!
Merlin!
Okay! Calm head.. He looked down at Laurel as she spoke and he nodded. “I’m on it.” And he too took out his wand because well, they were already exposed.. and a monarch butterfly shot out of his wand and headed towards Hogwarts.
He looked down at Hattie, the odds of any of the students obeying him were slim, but he had to try. “Any student who can hear the sound of my voice, please gather near Laurel and I! Bring a chanting student if you can, but if not we will take care of them.”
Hopefully.
The stupid, irritating, shriveling
imp of a man sent a patronus. She saw it shoot from his wand - a
butterfly, too, no less - and audibly growled. "Duncan, we've got to go - " she grabbed his wrist with her free hand and aimed her wand, openly, at Kalen. She had a fire in her dark eyes.
The spell was inaudible and silent; in her head. A red ribbon like substance slowly from the end of her wand. It took the shape of the wind as it headed straight for Kalen like a snake. The red substance wrapped itself around Kalen, covering his mouth and tying at the back of his head. The substance then dissipated, like smoke.
"There. That should shut him up - " And for good measure, Melanie flicked her wand almost lazily over her shoulder at the two professors [Kalen and Laurel] and
incarcerous'd them together, the roped spitting out from her wand rapidly as she suddenly ran and pulled Duncan roughly behind her.
SPOILER!!: Duncan again

While the smile disappeared from Kaysha's face, it was only just spreading on Duncan's. A smile that, if he wasn't feeling so smug, he would've blamed entirely on the country he was currently in. "Looks like a success so far." She was going to be proud, if anything. There were mentions of wanting to educate the young and now, here they were: passing on the sacred teachings to all... these...
...
...
While the students had odd looks spreading on their faces, another odd look - a different kind of odd look - spread across Duncan's face as well. The smug expression vanished in a matter of seconds as comprehension dawned, causing a look of horror and confusion to spread, instead. He knew that this was going to happen, of course, and it had taken quite a bit of convincing to make him see the reverse argument to this, but there was something significant about this that he didn't know. Something that caused him to blink a few times and shake his head a few more times, as if he was shaking it clear. As if he was only just starting to see things clearly...
"Melanie," he hissed, switching to English as he turned to the woman who was supposed to be his twin sister, "Why the-"
*CAR HORN SOUND*
"are ALL the students getting possessed?! I thought the plan was to only use a few? To get the message across, not use the entirety of the castle," An exaggeration, yes, but an important one. "as a way of doing that!"
He wanted an explanation and he wanted one now.
She didn't bother to look over her shoulder at him.
"Duncan, be quiet and don't worry. We've got it under control now." We...as in she and...their leader. she fixed her gaze on his as she stopped momentarily.
"Everything is fine."
But they needed to leave. NOW.

But now ... these kids ... were chanting ... and taking out sticks ... and one of the adults that was with them had one too and somehow made a whispy butterfly appear out of nothing ... there was only one thing that was coming into the old man’s mind as he took it all in. Cue the PTSD.
"HIDE YOUR KIDS! HIDE YOUR WIFE!" he bellowed to his fellow Dufftown citizens. "WE ARE UNDER ATTACK!"
He raised his cane high above his head, ready to strike if any of these mongrels got anywhere near him. They would not be holding him hostage or attempting to murder him today!
...and the worst happened. A panicked no-maj knocked Melanie's wand out of her hand on accident.
"NO - " but it was far across the way. "
Duncan, go - GO -" she bellowed at her twin brother as she tried to channel her windless magic, but it just wasn't going to happen. She fumbled through the crowd to grab it, quickly, before Regina, or worse, the Ministry could arrive.
