Matt was a little excited and angry at the same time. When he had read Witch Weekly, he had reached Aidan through owl and had asked him about plans for that evening. Since he had none and he knew that Hestia would be home, he had offered the older man to come have dinner with them, dinner he had started at the bakery a few hours before closing time.
He finished up his minced pie and set it on the counter before sending his employees off. He would close the shop himself and then head home with dinner already in done, in the basket.
The door jiggled and he went up front to mention that the bakery was closed, but he stopped dead on his tracks as he faced two tall, broad figures dressed in black with masks. They weren't Death Eater masks, but something you can find in any shop around London and before he could ask what they were doing there he was hit with fists, knees, headbutted and kicked once he was on the floor. He'd never gotten around to learn how to defend himself and the two people attacking him were fricken fast too.
One of them broke his wand and kneeled close to him. "Magic belongs in Knockturn Alley and you do not." The voice was low and Matt didn't recognize it and before he could ask them anything he blacked out after recieving a last kick, right in the face.
Minutes later, they the left the bakery after setting a tablecloth on fire, which caught rather quickly.
