The Magicians: fillory book 8 Panic to the Plan.

Did Martin Chatwin kill them? His battle magic knocked Elliot and Margo out cold. Penny got his hands chopped off; and Alice. Oh no Alice! She is lying there lifeless. Where's Jules? We could've had a strong chance in beating Him if she didn't steal the Leo Blade from Alice. What did she get herself into.

Quentin thoughts: "Am I suppose to be the hero or am I a complete failure?"

"Their bodies lie on the floor. I am weak, pathetic and worthless."

"Shit what do I do?"

Quentin surveys the room and sees everybody's condition and it is not good. Alice looks like she can be dead. Meanwhile, Penny is screaming in agony after the loss of his hands. El and Margo are dead. Quentin is slow to get up but when he finally does, he rushes over to penny. Realizing he needs a traveler to enact a new plan.

"Penny a are you fine." quentin panically stuttered

"does it look like I'm fine asshole?" penny yells

"you should've never threw out book seven, but I'm going to find a way to fix this." quentin sarcastically said.

"IF I GET MY HANDS BACK I'M GOING TO KILL YOU QUENTIN. ATTACH MY HANDS TO MY ARMS!"

"Even when your defenseless and suffering you find a way to be a douche."

(Quentin nervously signs magic)

Penny's hands get up and start moving around the room as if his fingers are the thing from the Addams family. Yelling in the background AHHHH. The pain is getting worse as the loss of blood is getting severe. Quentin signed the wrong magic. He finds himself in a situation dealing with murphy's law. Anything that can go wrong will go wrong. Quentin signs magic one more time to stop penny from bleeding out. Then he makes a cooler appear to try and preserve Penny's hand. Quentin needs to find where Victoria and Josh disappeared to before the quest to fight the beast. Victoria is the only other traveler in Fillory.

"Shut up and do something Quentin. Remember i can hear your thoughts."

"Penny I don't know what to do. I can't leave you all like this."

"I Didn't say leave. I said just shut up!"

"I'm trying to save us Penny, Gosh!"

"If you want to save me put my freaking hands back on my body!"

"What spell do I use? I killed cancer puppy trying to fix him."

"God, you are so worthless quentin."

"We need Victoria. She's the only one that can help us travel out of here. Then we can find a way to get your hands back to your body."

"Do it again Quentin."

"Huh"

"Magic you idiot. we don't have the time to search for her."

Quentin signs magic once more and he did it. Penny's hands reattached to his body but the wounds are healing. So, Penny cannot do any magic at the moment. Quentin is pacing back and forth figuring out what to do. Then it hit him. Since he needs to get stronger in order to defeat Martin Chatwin, he needs the help of a wizard of similar circumstance.

"I got it Penny."

"My hands are clearly attached Quentin."

"no, not that. A plan!"

"Well, what is it?"

"We can't find the help we need in Fillory. It's time we go further."

"What do you mean?"

"We need the help of the half blood prince."

(Penny laughs) " I thought this was a long shot Quentin. Now you're telling me Fillory isn't the only book you believed in."

"Yeah." Quentin said sensibly

"You Believe in Harry Potter Quentin? …You can't make this up dealing with you."

Penny looked around and realized because of Quentin's Fantasy world, the whole group almost got killed. Not to mention, they don't even know if everyone is dead yet. Quentin looks at Alice's body on the floor, and thinks to himself that its the only way.
