Announcement:
This idea came to me oddly enough as I not only watched the "Disenchantment Series" on Netflix, but also in my head or while I dreamt, guys/gals.
So yes it is once again an HP Crossover with a bit of a twist, as this takes place during the fourth year at Hogwarts; right after the first task and… Well, I don't want to spoil anything for once and merely want you all to read it yourself as the actual beginning though, will be HP (Movie) Universe until later on, it switches; which all characters that are important would be described from the movie version of Harry Potter. Other then that, I would mostly be listing their names and stuff.
So after this I would be working on a new Zerina, Dusk, one of my Projects, and Jade Chapter guys.
This Fic would also incorporate all the current episodes (10) mixed with my own touch as well, so do expect this to get updated, so beyond that… It would be my own imagining of what would occur as this Fic is mostly a Harry Potter and Disenchantment Crossover (Despite it being labeled Disenchantment and Xovers). I would also like to state I won't be posting any Warnings or Information this time; for this story as most you will understand from my previous works; Especially since it's a "M-Rated Fic" for a reason.
I would lastly like to point out some things were suggested by my fellow Author: RWBYKNIGHT, and mostly by me for this chapter.
Now I don't own anything except my own characters (Which you may see also within this at times or use, or even at some point), and my own idea-based plots to this Fic for the site. I also don't own any other franchises or said characters related to them as such; mostly using them within my works. If I did, then we would find out Elfo is in fact related to… well, that's up to our own heads to decide on that part.
Now on with the new story! (Contains a mix of Original Cannon with AU of Episodes 12; Originally they are the same episode in two parts)
The Beginning Chapters are the Best; The Beginning of the Best Adventure Yet!
Helena "Hel" Lilith Potter, that is what she has been mostly known as from age ten onwards before living on her own, at age ten and a half, has once again proved that she was unexpected and also that the unbelievable has become believable: She has tamed a rare dragon that was given to her; making this her third dragon she bonded with within this time, her first task in the tournament; in which she and her sister-like best friend, Hermione Jean Granger, found a way to clear things up as whatever they; the contestants within the Triwizard Tournament before the first task occurs, can state things and she did while making Dumbledore be in slight trouble.
She exposed the hidden truths of what the old fossil kept from the Magical British Government in which she knew he would only get a suspension of council for by what she exposed, and revealed her own familiars; Natasha (AKA, Norbert from Hagrid as a rare Antipodean Opaleye with her colored eyes, and is rare from having black stripes near the end of her tail), a Hungarian Horntail that they were stunned to know was the missing dragon for a few years or so that was meant for this kind of task, and one of few dragons based off the card game that was, in fact, real: The Blue Eyes White Dragon or otherwise known as the Egyptian Lightwing, Kisara, is one of her two soulmates, and also the very tasked dragon she bonded with.
The reason for this was due to her Second Year as it turned out she became half-human by a mix of her Dragon Animagus, Phoenix from Fawkes' Tears, and the venom from the dead Basilisk from that time in which she too, revealed.
Speaking of said Potter, she was at 5'4 in height with her also being a slim yet slender, hourglass framed girl that hit puberty early to have a D-Cup sized chest; despite looking petite as well, and also had a natural-based pale complexion to make her skin look porcelain, mixed black-ebony and ivory-white hair, and having emerald-"Killing Curse" colored eyes that had slit pupils due to her creature part of herself. She mostly resembled (Facial wise that is) to India Eisley; the actress, and was told she could be her doppelgänger at most times while resembling mostly her mother's own white hair with a mix of her father's own hair.
She wore, however, a black harness detailed slinky bralet crop top that had green flames near the bottom, ripped yet faded black jeans that had decent tears on her thighs, a leather motorcycle vest pocket waistcoat that was open; her upper outfit showing her chest decently yet in plain view, with the vest also having celestial bronze studs with on the right was the Potter Crest imprint and on the left the Black Crest. She also wore short-grey socks with black combat boots with silver and green lacing; the boots having an imprint of a dragon on the sides, and decent undies in dark-green colors.
Besides the looks, she was declared free of the tournament as she did participate in the most amazing way, and was also dubbed as a legalized adult woman now due to the terms of the Magic involved with the Triwizard Cup.
So at this point and time, she was; a few hours later on November 24th, 2014, within Gringotts with her two Sister-Dragons shrunken down while in an environment trunk she recently purchased, along with a lot of things like books and stuff to settle herself down for life, and was with her half-human non-blooded, sister and her two soulmates: Hermione, Daphne Greengrass, and Kisara.
Hermione (Emma Watson Version), had her hair tamed after accepting her new half-race while also being adopted as a Potter; due to her parents declaring her no longer theirs, was a Half-Nekotama of the rare variety: A Two-Tailed Blue. So she has her own hair mixed with light blue, cat-like eyes based off her own original color and an increase in beauty by gaining a slender look with claws, and two tails gently swaying in waiting within the Private Waiting Room while talking to Daphne (Her looks the same as movie). Her chest though went from a Low B-Cup to a perky C-Cup; with her also looking like she was still developing, and cat ears instead of human on the sides of her head. She mostly wore her Hogwarts Robes until she could gain new clothes.
Kisara though was a thing of beauty herself. She has natural pale skin, white waist-length hair with tones of baby blue and bright blue eyes while being only slightly taller than Helena by a few inches, and due to the insistence of Helena, wore a pale-blue tank top and high waisted white jean shorts, pale-blue shirt socks with teal sneakers that had black laces. She also had a slim figure with a Mid C-Cup, and slender curves, despite looking older; close to seventeen, she was the same age as Helena and Hermione.
Anyways back to the matter at hand.
Helena sighed while looking upwards, wondering why she was summoned to the bank in the first place with her then jumping by Hermione merely looking at her in concern, "You alright Hel?"
Despite hearing a Goblin nearby snort at her nickname sounding like a small curse, she shrugged with a hopeful smile at her adopted sister to her family, "Sure… Sure, I'm good Mia. I'm just wondering if things will be better than ever since everyone knows what the Old Coot has been doing… Making me a pawn for his own work while tricking everyone that's what it's supposed to be," at the end of her words, she flexed her left wrist in irritation while feeling her fingers shifted to finger-like claws and back; with her also worried of her own body as well as during the summer living with Daphne, she was experiencing odd things; this being one of them.
Hermione now squeezed Helena's left shoulder gently while also eyeing her hand as it returned to normal, "All we have to do is hope for the best Hel, besides," she made Helena hold back a snort by her small joke to cheer her up, "He might experience payback for all the sherbet lemons he devoured before we left."
It was here that the door opened and a fancy-clothes Goblin appeared while stating aloud; with them wondering why he was doing so as they were the only ones there, "Miss Potter and Co.? If you all please follow me." They gotten up while doing so.
Once they arrived at a large office of sorts from trekking through a hallway while seeing other rooms that looked either weird or interesting, they say they came to the King Goblins Office, and Overseer of Gringotts itself: Ragnarok. "I was wondering when you would eventually show, Miss Potter, as I expected you during your first year."
Confused by this as they sat down from his gesture as the office was medieval mixed with modern; with the coloring mostly crimson and stone designed as they all sat in comfy, crimson red chairs, "What do you mean? I never gotten a letter or anything from you?" Helena decided to state kindly yet was mixed with being curious and worried to then have the King Goblin to narrow his eyes in understanding, "It seems more will be charged to Dumbledore as Withholding Information to an Heiress as such as you, is a crime as well."
All four girls eyes went wide at this while he went into his red oak desk that had a war-like theme, and pulled out a blank parchment and a pen that looked sharp; Daphne knowing what it is, "You planned in giving My Wildfire an Inheritance Test, Sir?"
Helena looked at her first soulmate at that with wide eyes while Hermione looked at this in worry if it would harm her, as they were still hurting from Ron's betrayal still, "Yes and to soothe your fears, Girl's, this will indeed prick some blood, but the cut will heal at the same time it is administered." Helena guesses then to herself from him seeing the doubt they had, saw him easily grab the knife-like pen and didn't at all wince as blood was being drawn yet they witnessed it was healing at the same time, and he only did a small cut.
Seeing it was safe yet she hesitated before doing so; Ragnarok making sure her blood drips onto the paper while it glowed crimson as three full drops fell onto said page, and absorbed it while her right hand healed, they saw a motion to wait until a few minutes later, it stopped glowing and he took the parchment and began to read it to himself.
"What would you think it would say, Mistress?" Kisara whispered to her in the reptile tongue; Parseltongue that is with Helena shrugging along with Daphne as ever since they kissed for the first time from the light show, she understood the language as well, "Not sure, My Blue, but I was thinking perhaps he was checking things over."
They jumped since he chucked aloud while setting to Helena then, "It seems that oddly enough, you have relatives that are alive, but also not, Miss Potter," he paused before handing the results to her with a smirk is not a good way but with rage showing in his orbs, "I believe though you may be surprised by the results and also where your true relatives are located." Giving him a wary look, she read the results while indeed being shocked by the results of her full test.

After that it listed to make Helena look away from the others reading it; with her fuming inwardly mixed with shock and sadness of her past issues with the Dursley's Treatment of her, within the Abuse Section of the test itself. Also illegal contracts also listed as well that were thankfully dissolved after she was proclaimed by the Cup, an adult. There was even a total of the amount of plenty of money missing; still making her the wealthiest Witch there is within Gringotts, and a letter for her; quite a few of them that is, with one stating after finding things out.
"I… I want justice done at last to the Dursley's, and possibly look into the missing thefts of coin, and I… I want you to try and free me of that murderer while Daphne can go get my child… Which I'm shocked still to have and hope you can unblock my mind as well?" The Goblin King gave her a look of sympathy mixed with understanding as he nodded while things began to change.
Once Daphne kissed her on the lips with Hermione going with, Kisara decided to go to their personal shopping with an aid of a Teller Human the Goblin's trust while they are seen to what was needed for the Last Ruling Potter.
Helena though once they came to the Ritual Chamber; a good thirty minutes of preparation and moving later, she was blinking at what The King translated to her, in slight shock, from what the Goblin Healers said once inside; gesturing things as well, "You mean I have to strip naked; In my birthday suit in front of you all, and lay on a stone slab in the middle of this room?!"
Amused, he only nodded to her while stating in a matter-of-fact tone, "Precisely Miss Potter. As the ritual will take time and patience to do since there has been mostly success when we perform this ritual as it will not only unblock anything still blocked or still within you, but it should get rid of that Soul Shard within her forehead."
While she was stripping her clothes to reveal on her back and some parts of her body the scars of her treatment that she barely shown, to anyone; not even her two Soulmates as she wasn't at all ready, she was worried by what he meant and then asked quickly; being escorted to the slab while her light-pink nipples were stiff from the cold air within the old, rune-inscribed room, "What do you mean 'It should'? Wouldn't it work all the time?"
She gave him a look as he merely shrugged his shoulders as he left her hanging as the stone door closed behind him by his next set of words, "We never at all had to do it to a living person, mostly we do it in Horocrox Objects mostly, and those cursed by simple or hard things, and it would be interesting to see what a Living Horcrux would have here."
Somewhat stressed out from the information, she was hesitant yet was now laying on the stone slab as they painted old markings by Greek and Roman on her body… All over it, that is as soon as they were done; twelve or so minutes later, she stiffened as the runes flowed while the current healers began chanting aloud within the room, and she passed out then.
When she woke up, she was confused mixed with her head hurting while she laid on a comfy hospital bed as flashes of her blocked memories forcibly showed; with her being sick, angered, or even disgusted by some of them before blinking her eyes repeatedly as she saw she was possibly still in Gringotts, and oddly felt very heavy as if, she was lead.
She turned her head slowly to see that Daphne was passed out alongside seeing Hermione was as her hobby, reading a book yet it was listed as "Dark Ages: Was it Good or Not" by an author that was hard to understand, before groaning to herself.
She then felt immense pain on some parts of her body to get Hermione's attention; saving her place on the book as she quickly came over and waking Daphne who hugged her to Helena's wince of being in pain, "You're awake Hel! You've been out for at least a few days." That made her freeze up and look to Hermione in shock, "I've been out that long? The last I remember was…" "Was being in the Ritual Room. We know Helena, as there was an unexpected yet interesting event that took place… But," Daphne began with Helena not liking her hesitant words, "But what?"
"They did free you of the remaining Blocks, Potions, and Charms you had been given, but the ritual near the end to get rid of your Soul Shard… It failed while killing two of the Healers in the process to recontain it." Hermione states with her ears moving backward while also looking downwards from seeing Helena go wide-eyed at this, yet she quickly relaxed while feeling Her Ice Princess kiss her gently, in reassurance, on the lips.
Once Daphne pulled away, she was then worried from what her memories had of her daughter and asked softly; also worried about her body as it felt heavy still while also seeing both girls glance at each other, "Where's Little Dee? Where's Delphi?"
"She's currently with Kisara as we were able to get her back, and she is a shy yet sweet child, Hel," Hermione states gently to reassure her on that yet Helena grained to worry them before they either blushed or paled by her next set of words, "I need to use the restroom yet why is my body heavy?" Sighing while looking at Daphne who sighed while mentally imagining in kicking or pranking Hermione later, "She's bound to find out later, might as well escort her to the bathroom here, Daph." Confused while still hardly feeling her body yet wondered why she seemed taller, was aided by Daphne to the bathroom easily while Helena not at all seeing Daphne blush since she saw something that Helena didn't, "I really need to go badly, My Ice… What is it?"
"You may be shocked yet… I think to me personally it's an improvement for new things when the time comes." Helena being confused still, felt Daphne grab something while aiding her; making her jump at feeling her grab something odd yet made her oddly shiver, at the same time while feeling it grew itself from the confines of this odd hospital garment; a pair of boxers with a green basic hospital gown that was large, and froze as she looked down to see… "Why the hell do I have that?!"
Helena has an above average penis and balls while feeling from Daphne's fingers briefly by accident, she still had her womanhood as well. It was hard currently while being at least twelve inches; with lemon sized balls, and also her appendage appeared to also be girthy.
Helena froze before feeling a odd sensation as she went wide eyed by her dick spurting pee right into the toilet instead of her usual place, and gave her Alpha Soulmate a searching yet fearful look while Daphne merely blushed while guiding said appendage still, at the toilet, while softly stating to her, "From what the Goblin's stated is that ever since your true gender being a rare Hermaphrodite was sealed away, by that potion, well… You ended up like this. But that isn't all as the reason your body's currently heavy is that you… Grew slightly."
Feeling herself stop as Daphne flushed the toilet, she looked warily at the blonde who sighed before guiding her to the mirror nearby yet Helena still softly stated, "I… I need to see what was done, please." Once at the mirror, she jaw dropped at herself with her slowly feeling her limbs were coming along, and grabbed her now jagged-elfin like ears, "Is this… What I'm truly supposed to look like?"
Helena was now six feet tall, had a slender/hourglass frame with exotic curves; some lean muscle also showing due to quidditch and working out partly, her bust went up to an F-Cup, and her skin felt like a snakes when she kept touching her body; her eyes still looking at a goddess of sorts instead of her petite frame; from before, in the mirror. She even had difficulty getting the robe off at seeing she was perfect in every way and was also stunned to find all her abuse was gone, as well; the scars no longer on her body. She even looked to be at least sixteen or seventeen now instead of her original age.
After seeing her image; with Daphne only blushing a little after getting used to seeing her luckily in this state first before Kisara, aided her at getting her clothes on as Helena refused to wear the hospital robe, and Hermione blushed yet was knowing by seeing their faces, "Maybe we need to have your outfit enchanted as right now… Well," "I know Mia, I look like a stripper instead of my basic look," Helena pointed out as she wasn't at all comfortable with her bust jiggling as it was, and her new part of herself felt it was being squeezed; even her clothes felt very tight on her new frame.
Daphne though had other ideas as she thought she looked oddly exotic yet didn't want to say anything, as she secretly went to the bathroom to take care of "Special Business" for herself once she saw Helena the first time a few days ago, and it still felt like she was needing to do so… Possibly later.
Once they came out, a Goblin merely smirked at them all while wordlessly doing a 'Come with me' motion, and followed him all the way back to the King's Office. Once he saw the state of the Potter Heiress, he held the bridge of his nose and looked at the amused Goblin that lead then here with Helena and the girls now glaring at him for this information, "Rockefeller, you could have at least spelled Miss Potter's clothing to fit her better," and with a word or two in Goblin Speech, Helena sighed in relief as her clothing quickly adjusted to her frame.
They, however, didn't see Daphne hid the small nosebleed she gained from seeing Helena's look being improved as secretly, she was a small pervert yet she does well at hiding that fact and decided to eventually tell her Soulmate at a later date as she does secretly look at all women.
"Now that is out of the way, perhaps we would like to offer our condolences for the mishap and promise of removing your Soul Shard," Ragnarok began with him closing his hands together on his desk; looking at all the girls currently before him, "So perhaps we could arrange things for a visit at least to the past."
The girls blinked at this while seeing The King was only humored by their looks as Hermione states in disbelief at him, "That's impossible. No one has ever done that at all unless they used a Time-Turner, as the proof was by a dead author of Yoma Archer Noches within the Egyptian Age of Cleopatra." Ragnarok didn't say anything, except gotten up and moved to the left side of his office, and from seeing a statue nearby of a griffin, poked the eyes as a door on its left was then formed, and it slowly opened by itself, "Would you three care to come with me?"
They looked at each other yet decided to go with it, and Helena was blushing to herself as she was not still at all used to her frame or true gender, and moved on a slight waddle a few times as they walked down a stone corridor before seeing a pair of dark iron doors that held runes in Old Greek, and placed a hand in the center as said runes flowed a neon-blue instantly and the door opened by itself inwards.
When they got inside, Hermione gapped along with Helena as she saw the show, and only confusing Daphne by the show title she stated aloud, her voice echoing only slightly as well, "You have a Stargate here?!"
"No Miss Granger-Potter," Ragnarok began while seeing Hermione's eyes widen at that term yet quickly understood as he gently placed a hand on the obsidian-like structure, "This was indeed modeled from that show as this is also known as the Time Gate. It was secretly made by several Gods or Goddesses of different religions for specific purposes, and was shattered in jealousy by a God that was sealed away; An Old God you all know as By only word as Cthulhu. Over the years, my kind was tasked to safeguard the game itself once it resembled perfection since this is the only one we were able to salvage and fix by the aid of a very strange man; With him also altering it slightly like said device you may have witnessed in that very show."
Helena and the others seemed amused as Hermione seems to have been broken by this with Ragnarok gently reassured her to snap her back out of it, "Miss Granger-Potter, It has not at all been recorded in literature as the Gods themselves forbade it; Especially since we; The Goblins, run the entire Witch and Wizardry Locations all over this world, and possibly others from a certain book you may have read, Miss Greengrass."
"You mean to tell me this is not only a Time Portal, but you could set it at a certain point to do a lot of things… Like retrieving people and other things and back? With this Time Gate also considered being a dimension hopper?" Daphne now exclaimed in excitement with Hermione doing the same; Helena sighing yet smiled small as they had a few things in common, and reading was part of it.
"Correct and more, Miss Greengrass, as my own personal offer is this," he looked mostly at Helena before continuing; to get her to think this over a few moments or so, "I and my kin are offering you to go to the time period where you can visit; At a limited time, and perhaps may be able to bring your Kin and those they cherish back to our timeline as we; The Goblins, have only little records of the Kingdom of Dreamland, and it was dubbed as a myth or legend amongst all races. Even the Wizards themselves."
Helena though was pulled to the side with Ragnarok chuckling to himself as he can clearly hear them while they whispered to each other, "Are you sure this is a good idea? I mean, he could be leading us on a goose chase." Hermione states to them with Daphne decided to add he own words in then, "But Mia, Goblins; Especially The King showing you something private as this, would be truly worth it. It's for your Sister by Adoption and My Wildfire's best to actually see who she might be related to, as this is actually a golden opportunity for all of us," she turned along with Hermione to Helena, "What you think My Wildfire?"
"I… I think we should take it. I mean, nothing bad will happen to us that has occurred most of our school years and… Let's just take it," Helena hesitantly states with her deciding her choice; seeing the confused look of Daphne with Hermione only nodding briefly in understanding.
Helena and Co. raised themselves while looking at the King Goblin who smirked at them after her words, "When do we leave?"
Few days later (November 28th, 2014)...
Helena sighed while in relief as she was able to managed things with her also thankful the trail over her so-called relatives was done and over with; with her also irked at everyone being surprised that she; The Last Potter, was at all abused yet understood as things have been changing slightly. She was just glad they were found guilty. Vernon and Petunia going to Azkaban for a few months before being mind wiped/extracted of ever knowing her along with her so-called cousin for more information as decreed by Fudge and Amelia Bones.
Things though were somewhat busy for the last few days, however, of settling her affairs while she goes and uses the Time Gate along with four others: Herself, Hermione, Daphne, her only child; Delphi, and Kisara while both Natasha and Merida (The Hungarian Horntail Shifter), remain behind to continue their affairs since time will still go normally on while they would be gone.
She also kept yet hasn't read at all the letters to her by Lily herself, yet she oddly felt it wasn't the right time; for some reason.
Helena currently saw them with everyone she trusted currently within the secret room for the Time Gate. Remus, Sirius, Daphne and her family, Hermione and her child Delphi, and lastly her two Dragon Sisters; With then already in their permanent yet chosen forms they chose.
Natasha was oddly enough, in resemblance, to Pan Son; her outfit she personally redesigned as said character from her series she gotten addicted to as such, from Helena letting her and Merida to watch TV. Her outfit consists of a dark-blue midriff shirt, sports also a lavender bandana on her head, celestial chains on the right side of her light-gray capris shorts and black fingerless gloves with the Potter Crest on the left one. She even resembles mostly to Pan as well; face wise, but with her eyes being crimson and green mixed, and ivory colored, shoulder-length hair.
Merida, however, also resembled mostly to Saeko Busujima, but with a few differences as she had an E-Cup while looking eighteen years old instead of seventeen, had tan skin, and wore female battle boots with heels on black color with vine-like design, long lace crimson stockings, dark crimson fingerless gloves with silver spikes at the knuckles, Saeko's school uniform top yet modified to show more of her bust in a more revealing yet decent way, a skirt that shows the string of her black thong and her entire right thigh, a dull-grey lace bra, and a brown-studded leather belt on the waist of her black ripped jeans. She even had said Anime Characters face, and hair, but her eyes were dragon mostly.
Delphi though oddly had Helena's hair color scheme, emerald- colored eyes with vertically slit pupils, two thick horns protruding crookedly, her face resembling mostly a certain middle-based aged sibling from the Overlord Anime; but at her age, and developing still on her waist are a pair of small, black, angel-like wings with at the edges being pure white. She wore, however, a plain child's dress outfitted for her body she has.
Helena though frowned before placing a smile on her face at seeing Delphi look at her happily before giggling currently in Kisara's hold as she briefly recalled where they found her child and the rest of the orphanage children that the currently imprisoned matron; who sold them at a scientific facility, wanted to train assassins while experimenting on children not deemed important to people, and somehow found the remains of blood to a succubus of sorts, and used that into her baby by scientific means. This making Delphi not only her and Tom Riddle Jr.'s child but whoever said succubus was; since he possessed Quirrell back then, it was his DNA that mainly came to effect.
Besides that, Helena made sure to settle things and was also irked Dumbledore was indeed locked out as part of the Wizingmont, but he was still dubbed as Headmaster to Hogwarts.
She was also taking enough money, however, to settle for quite some time; with her carrying a pouch on her right hip that won't at all come off as it is blood-bound to her and also enchanted all her clothing she loves to be able to fit her frame, and also bought specialty underwear as well for hiding her… current gender better while comforting it, at the same time.
Currently, everyone was here to say goodbye as they; those that would be going, would be gone for at least a year or so within the Time Gate to the Dark Ages, and a closer location to Dreamland as well.
Hermione though wore her outfit that was basically like her own clothing she preferred, along with Daphne as Helena decided to still wear her outfit she refreshed from a few days ago, for today.
Helena now jumped as Sirius patted her back gently to get his attention, and turned to him with a look while he was concerned, "Are you sure you want to do this Bambi? We could postpone it again until later, and wait for another opportunity with Ragnarok?" Shaking her head as she liked the way her Godfather cared for her, even after she aided him in the third year to escape and he was getting ready for his own trail to be officially free, "I'm sure Padfoot, as I need to know my Mom's side of the family and perhaps maybe figured out why from Daph and Mia wondering the same thing, why Dreamland wasn't mentioned that much in History."
Sirius nodded as Remus then came over with a sad yet proud smile on his face while he also decided to state; making Helena tint lightly at his words, "We know why you want to do this, and Lily might be proud of how you handled things to the Ministry itself, and a few other things before you go. I just… I hope you and the girls find what you plan to search for, and I hope for you to be safe, alright?"
Helena saw the girls were talking with everyone else briefly from her glance and looked to her two Godfathers with a small smile as she made them nearly wheeze from hugging them before recoiling back with a sheepish look, "Sorry, I'm still getting used to my body."
Before they could reply to that, Ragnarok settled the last dial and the Time Gate's runes then began glowing a neon-blue color like on the doors a few days ago, and stated aloud in kind, "It's time. I have set the time to a specific point within the Dark Ages for those that are entering, going in. Now I or the others don't know what to expect for you and your small group, Miss Potter, but we will be tracking your health through our own ways, as agreed."
Helena nodded with seeing Daphne hugging her mother and little sister; Astoria, one last time before heading over to her with Kisara picking up Delphi who giggled while Hermione rearranged her carry on bag she enchanted to have all her things in; mostly her clothes, books, and necessities like theirs they grabbed and gave them all looks to which they saw was said yet also understanding as they waved goodbye once the same liquid-like energy showed, and left into it.
Appearing on a dirt road while it being within woods, they had to move otherwise they would have been trampled by a horse and buggy heading to a direction; from seeing a sign to their surprise, was to Dreamland itself yet it also stated words to surprise them all, with Helena stating in shock, "My Cousin's getting married?"
She then turned to see they were on the safe side of the dirt road as another coach carriage passed by; heading to the same direction with Kisara decided to carry Delphi some more, with Helena secretly enjoying her child's laughter she briefly did as she was also glad her Dragon Soulmate was coming out of her shell as her own person, be witnessing with a glance at tickling her child's exposed feet.
"Do we simply go where the carriages went then My Wildfire?" Daphne asked while she adjusted her bag as Helena was about to reply, yet froze with them looking at her confused until they too, saw what she was seeing next to them as from the voice it was a male, and he waved while stating to them kindly, "Hi, I'm Elfo!"
The creature; Elfo, is a lime-colored Elf Hybrid; they quickly figured, that is short in stature and has a pig-like snout. His ears are pointed, in reference to the common trope. He has messy hair and an angry complexion. He has a large overbite, with a wavering lip. He also wore a brown vest with a v-neck that is opened to reveal his neck, along with short blue shorts and has spiky brown shoes; possibly to hold his feet which may curl up on the toes. He has four fingers; unlike the humans with five, and looked at them expectantly.
"Uh… Hi Elfo, my name is Helena, and these are my two Soulmate's Daphne and Kisara," Helena began while gesturing to each person to identify kindly; wincing he was new to all this like they were, somehow, "My adopted sister Hermione, and my only child, Delphi."
Elfo merely beamed at them while he then looked at the road to remind Helena of a certain House Elf, "Nice meeting you, well, better get going." Elfo then began to walk into the road yet a carriage nearly ran him over to which he yelped in surprise as Helena used her Wandless Magic to pull the naive hybrid out of the way; the carriage and the people within not at all seeing what she did as Elfo looked at her kindly while being surprised, "Wow… Thanks, I never knew those weird wagons would be chasing after horses on this weird path."
Helena sweatdrop as both Hermione and Daphne held back a chuckle while Kisara was confused before holding with ease, a tired Delphi while she yawned, and curled into her to go to sleep. "You're welcome Elfo… Say," Helena began once again to get her Soulmate's and sister's attention yet were oddly glad she took charge at this point since they were all lost currently yet knew they were supposedly at or near Dreamland; despite the signs pointing the way, they could be a small trick, "How about we head where the stage couches were going together?"
Beaming at her for this, he nodded while glancing at where another stagecoach headed and gestures with them shrugging as it couldn't hurt, "Let's go where they're going."
They then; after some trekking and giving Elfo a candy bar he stated he never tasted at all that was truly good, from back at his former home, they saw; to amaze them, a medieval kingdom that possibly was Dreamland itself; near the ocean with the castle itself was near a cliff while the population homes seemed to be going downwards. All in all, it was magnificent to look at.
"Wow! It's so small," Elfo states in amazement with them only nodding before Hermione corrected the hybrid male gently to only get him to nod, "It's only far away Elfo."
Elfo then skipped while Hermione decided to state her doubt to her sister, while the others went ahead slightly, "You think this is where your Aunt and Cousin are Hel?" Helena only nodded while stating, and pulling Hermione as she lightly laughed at her antics, "Possibly. But come on, the last one to the church is a rotten dragon egg!"
Within the church, a wedding was taking place, again, as the former groom that was dead on the sword-like throne of sorts while seemingly alive somehow, was two people at the location and were in the process of getting married.
The first was a man who known as Prince Merkimer of Bentwood; a male by the product of incest between the current rulers of Bentwood.
The second was a nineteen-year-old female that wore a wedding dress; originally her mother's, and had blue eyes and platinum-blond hair; sorta resembling slightly to Helena's white hair, and oversized eyes and ears like her father. She has a round nose like her grandma had, light freckles, buck teeth and lastly a slight overbite. This was Bean and also Helena's Cousin.
"You gotta be kidding me, father you can't just-" Bean states in anger mixed with annoyance while King Zøg stood up. He wears a green robe with yellow trims on the sleeves and hem. His cape is a darker shade of green, bordering on a greenish-grey. He has orange hair accompanied with large nose, eyes, and ears. He has spiky hair as well as a mustache in the shape of a hair-comb. He has a golden crown with two red gems: one is in the center of the crown, and another rests on top of a strange, antenna-like protrusion emanating from the tip of the crown. "The King can make Anyone!"
King Zøg then gestured in irritation at both the Prince and his eldest child, and states in addition to his words, You do, and you do, then say 'Man and Wife"."
The priestess that resembled a dark age version of a goth, then thinking this as approval to marry both Bean and the Prince, "I now pronounce you man and-" she was interrupted as the doors opened as frost Elfo came into the room followed by Helena and co. as for Elfo looked hesitant like they were as it seems they may have interrupted said wedding by accident, "Uh… Hi, I'm Elfo," and he chuckled after his words nervously, "And these are my friends… What are all your names?"
"What the hell is that?" "An Elf." "A Magical Elf." A few random people within the room stated along with a few murmurs of the crowd while Bean secretly was looking right at Helena in suspicion mixed with her looking somewhat familiar.
"Elves haven't been seen in centuries," King Zøg states to the old man next to him. The old man; Sorcerio, is an wizened old man with grey eyebrows and hair in lightening-flash points. He wears an indigo robe, crimson cape, grey gloves with a purple hat decorated with gold stars.
Nearby them though was a boy and King Zøg's current queen. The boy has blue skin and black hair. The boy; Derek, has hair covering half his face, but when he removed it from its obstructing position, it is shown he has a unibrow. His hands unlike his Dankmirian heritage, has five fingers for his human heritage. The woman was Queen Oona from Dankmire, and shares in the pale green/blue skin complexion of her people. She also has a long, prehensile tongue, long black hair and also wears makeup on her face; including lipstick and eyeliner. Her expression is one of perpetual irritation while she also wears a purple dress within her royal outfit.
"Imagine the possibilities…" Sorcerio began with intrigue by this as he turns while getting a small deck of playing cards out before they fumbled out of his hands trying to shuffle them, "With Elf Magic, I could progress far beyond card tricks." Helena, however, narrows her eyes with her two Soulmate's and sister realizing what she was going to do as King Zøg quickly shouted while holding out a coin that oddly held his face on it, "A shiny Gold Zøg to whoever seizes that Elf!"
Everyone on the crowd was going to go after Elfo who gasped yet stilled by them all seeing an odd aura now cover Helena, and she then shouted in an echoed voice of her own; making them all look at her fearfully, "ENOUGH!"
Helena gestured for Elfo to go; in which he did, as the crowd only stood still while seeing that she still had that aura around her frame while her eyes were also glowing, and Bean seeing this chance, wrapped her shawl from the wedding dress she's wearing around her hands; after seeing the door was locked, smashed the window and left with Elfo in fear, made her fall over.
King Zøg though narrowed his eyes at her direction yet flinched by a familiar glare he all knew too well from someone he knew before Oona, and dismissed the crowd while he was stunned by most of them as Daphne hugged her and kissed her directly on the lips; with Kisara gently giving Hermione the still sleeping Delphi while she joined in on the hug, "My Wildfire, you need to calm down… I think you got your point across about our new friend."
Blinking while her powers went back into her, she saw the remaining crowd look at then in mixed looks with King Zøg and a few others, even Oona looking at them in surprise before some of them deadpanned while their eyes went wide by what she declared, in her normal voice, "What? You never saw a girl like me kissing my Soulmate's?"
Seeing their looks, she saw from nods of her sister, and her two girls to then make King Zøg look at them with wide eyes; with surprise by what she declared, "These are my two Soulmate's: Daphne Marlene Greengrass and Heiress to her House, Kisara, and my sister by Adoption: Hermione Jean Granger and my name is Helena Lilith Potter: Heiress to my name and niece to Queen Dagmar of Dreamland, and Cousin to… Wait, where is she?"
King Zøg held on a groan with his advisor nearby him now as Sorcerio was still gathering his cards; a man by the name of Odval is tall and lean, has dark skin, and is bald, states to him plainly as if, this occurred a lot, "Elfo has left the building with Bean." Before he could state his complaint at this, the Prince of Bentwood then stated to him assuredly, "No worries, I'm an expert hunter, and I'll track down the woman I love. Keep the champagne chilled. I shall return before the last uncle passes out."
"My Knights of the Zøg Table will aid you. Knights! Pendergast, who are your best trackers?" King Zøg states to a group of men that came quickly behind the man mentioned as he states in ordered reply back while they saluted him, "That would be Stryker and Bolt, Sire. But they're lost, so, it'll be Turbish and Mertz."
Helena held back a snort at the knights words with Hermione giving her a look yet Daphne smirked since it was in fact funny, and they saw the Prince take off with the supposed knights, before King Zøg looked at them firmly now as some armored guards came to surround them with Helena looking at if, Are you really doing this, "Now who the blasted times are you fools?!"
"Helena stated the truth, your Highness," Hermione decided to state with King Zøg wondering what the heck she was yet quieted as it seems she was possibly the ambassador or something to this teen… Helena as such, "And we traveled a long way to possibly get to know not only your Kingdom, but also Helena's Aunt; Queen Dagmar, and her Cousin."
Seeing they still didn't believe them, she sighed while giving Helena a look in which she hesitated yet sighed while grabbing her test from her bag; to make the guards point further yet from the signal of the King, stood down as she then gave the test to Odval while Sorcerio was nearby; cards forgotten while she stated, "That Test is written in my own blood from a Test by Goblins, as they have Magic to know it is in fact, actual and truthful to what it states."
Eyeing her child as Derek went over and poked her slightly to get her to move yet only got swatted by her left wing slightly, Helena narrowed her eyes while also stunning him as well; not seeing Odval's eyes and Sorcerio's widen by what they read, "I suggest you refrain on doing that if you don't want to tick me off, little boy."
Derek eeped and went over to Queen Oona as she narrows her eyes at her before she could retort anything, they all looked at Odval who states in honesty to them, and Sorcerio agreeing as it seems legit; secretly Helena not at all showing Hermione or her girls the results, "It's true, Sire, to what she says. It seems she may have come from another time or place to come see us while our Former Queen Dagmar, was her own mother's Fraternal Twin."
Helena paused at this while making King Zøg also pause at his reading of her Test, with Queen Oona glancing at it quickly while they all looked at her, "She's… She's gone?"
King Zøg seeing the heartbroken look at the model-like Niece; he figured since she is a relation to his late wife, sighed with him giving her a look, "We have much to talk about, Helena… Wait, did you know about your name being referenced as-" "Ya, I do dub myself as Hel as a nickname… It's kinda funny to get away with a curse word sometimes," Helena admits while amusing the King at that before he ordered, "Set things for my Ex-Wife's Niece for her current stay, and her company she keeps."
Odval bowed while creeping Helena and Co. out while he moved with Sorcerio following him; with Derek being told to head with them back to the castle, and Queen Oona; after being handed the Test as custom back then, read it while King Zøg then led her; with Helena telling her girls and sister to wait here with Queen Oona, and he states softly to her, "Let me tell you what occurred."
Meanwhile at a far off location, earlier:
"The demon is performing exquisitely," a male voice states while he was occupied with a woman as they peered into green fire that was showing Bean, Elfo, and a Demon by the name of Luci; Luci looks similar to a shadow with his figure has very little form or depth, and is accompanied by a large singular eye (That is shown), horns on his head, and fangs.
And they were currently running.
The man; on topic for those watching the Oracle Fire while he wore a purple robe with a mixture of layers, a mushroom symbol on a band around his neck, a letter "M"on a panel around his waist, and thick-rimmed glasses. The woman though was wearing a dark orange dress and lighter orange cape which matches her ginger hair. She wears long red gloves with matching eye mask, a golden headdress and necklace complete with gemstones.
They were both Emperor Cloyd and the Enchantress.
"But look… There's a complication. They've been joined by a tiny dork," she states while observing like Cloyd was yet he poked the fire to point out something yet states, "Ow." "It's fire, Cloyd, It's hot."
"I know, I was there," he states before deciding to state to the Enchantress, "But this other that appeared with her group unexpectedly, seems rather interesting," Enchantress only nodded while pointing things out; the fire changing to see Helena and Co. being surrounded and then handing some kind of paper to Odval, "Indeed yet I sense other types of darkness that also seems otherworldly than the Princess of Dreamland."
"Interesting turn of events, perhaps… We should also send her a gift?" Cloyd suggests to make Enchantress ponder this yet shrugged while glancing on her secret pockets of who would be the best choice, Perhaps she would be perfect for this potential Plan B… Especially since she needs to be redeemed of her past task of being that man's own amusement after being also rejected from where she originally came from; From what I was told anyways.
At night within Dreamland Castle; Hours later:
"You managed to impress your Uncle, tonight, My Wildfire," Daphne states with her in a nightgown they offered her while Kisara was still getting around in their Royal Guest Room that was meant for a Queen, and lying in the green satin layered bed; the room mostly looking like it was meant for guest royalty.
Helena who wore a emerald green nightgown from her bag now; with Daphne blushing since she wore boxers under it to show her true gender, slightly, and turned to her after brushing her hair with a hairbrush that was Bean's; her Kingly Uncle not minding it at all yet missed the slight sympathy-like looks he secretly gave her. "I know what you mean, he oddly was surprised I wasn't drunk at all from all the… What did they call it Daph, Grog?"
"Yep," Daphne states as she was loving her freedom currently since she could be herself, and currently she was hoping Helena would be in the mood like she was, yet mentally sighed since Helena chuckled while being oblivious to Daphne in a pose to try and attract her attention, and was a little wet from seeing her Soulmate currently without realizing it, her bust jiggled easily to irk Daphne that she wasn't at all ready to- "What do you suppose we should say to Bean when she returns? Well, I mean me, but… Ah, you get what I mean, My Ice."
"Yes I do," And how hot your body became from what you look like now… I wish you just start seeing my hints already, damn it! Were Daphne's words mixed with her frustrations in her mind as Kisara came back with her now wearing a pale-blue nightgown while sensing something was wrong with Daphne, and gave her fellow Soul-Sister a look in which Daphne merely shrugged while they got into bed.
"Perhaps My Wildfire, you should just be you around her, and then see where it goes from there," Daphne decided to tell her with her stiffening as despite Helena's innocent intentions, she shoved her breasts onto her arm while Daphne realized it was a serious situation, couldn't help but to think how soft, perky and firm they were as everything was perfect with her Soulmate; even after she was adjusted to look more exotic and yet still be oblivious to- "Ya, I think you're right… But would they be appreciative about my past though?"
Daphne looked at Kisara who only looked at Helena on understanding, and saw that Daphne didn't want to say anything as she was secretly trying to not finger herself while knowing they were awake, made Helena look to the Dragon Shifter, "I am sure they would, My Love, as Kin would always be understanding; No matter the circumstances."
Sighing yet gave them both a warm yet small smile, she kissed them both gently on the lips; Daphne firstly before Kisara, "Let's hope she likes me as a Cousin." Helena then passed out eventually like Kisara did with Daphne deciding to be sneaky, and decided she wanted to taste something that would maybe satisfy her situation via her mouth, then.
The next day; (Real Time is November 29th, 2014 in Original Time):
Helena groaned while waking up yet felt something strange as she grunted a few times and seeing Kisara was gone, lifted the sheets and shouted aloud as said girl paused while looking at her innocently, "Daphne… What the flying fuck?" Daphne had her member out and was sucking it while firmly gripping her balls within her boxers.
"Mehat? I'sh wantsed a taste fishilly (What? I wanted a taste finally)," were her innocent words while seeing her pupils were glowing as she plopped it out while also stroking it; to make Helena tremble slightly a few times, before stating with a pointed look of sorts, "Besides you need to get over your fear of being not only unloved by this unique part of you, My Wildfire, but by what you experienced."
"Daph… Please stop. I… I'm not… READY!" Helena states as to disappoint yet worry Daphne; despite getting splatted only slightly with semen on her face and snapping out of her dazed high of sorts as her pupils stopped glowing, Helena shoved her away and quickly sprinted to the bathroom while locking the door; Daphne pounding softly after realizing her mistake, "Helena I'm so, so sorry. It's just that I cannot help it as our bond is still fresh, you know that, and I did tell you of my one side I rarely showed… Didn't I?" Hearing Helena now softly cry to herself while Daphne gulped in regret, sighed with her yelping as Kisara had narrowed eyes and growled lowly with her irises then glowing neon-blue, "What have you done?"
Helena though within the restroom was whimpering to herself as her odd colored tears that resembled blood, fell from her face while also glancing at her leaking dick still as semen still dribbled from her Alpha Soulmate's actions and gulped while heading to the medieval toilet and thankfully peed the rest out; not knowing what was going on in the caves below on some old bones of a female that ran away yet died of her wounds long ago as they also glowed a fluorescent-green a few times.
Though hearing a slam and familier yelp, she quickly placed her member back in her boxers, and quickly unlocked the door to then shout out loud from seeing Kisara was nearly choking Daphne against the wall, "My Light, stop! It's the bonds fault, not Daphne's!"
Kisara looked at Helena a few moments as her enraged face then shifted to sudden regret and concern, with Daphne looking at her face in shock; yelping as she was suddenly dropped at the highpoint of the wall while she then asked firmly yet gently to Helena, "How long have you been crying Crimson Tears, My Love?"
Not knowing in that particular kingdom they blushed at now knowing her gender yet were intrigued by the girl's themselves along with the odd development of Helena's tears, in which she was confused until she rubbed her face and blinked in shock, "What… I never cried like this before?"
Daphne winced while slowly yet steadily gotten a handkerchief the room had and went over with a pointed look by Kisara yet approved of the blonde's actions as she gently wiped Helena's face to make them stunned as the tears then changed color to a dark blue on the item itself.
"Perhaps we could find out later, but for now, I am truly sorry as like I said, the bond we have is beginning to want you to fuck me soon, and from my nature…" Daphne softly states while then looking away; unable to finish her words as Helena's eyes softened yet went over and squeezed her Alpha Soulmate's left shoulder gently while also seeing Kisara only nodding at them before going around the bed and getting into her bag she picked out for her, "I know My Ice, and even though I do want to do… That, I'm still getting nightmares about them with also fearing it would happen if I even did it with you, or even Kisara as well," Helena paused yet resumed at hearing a small sigh.
"I hope you will be ready as I can try and last for sometime Hel, but I just… I just don't want you to think that whatever occurred would happen when we do our first time together. I just want you to be happy with me, and even with Kisara, when it's time," Daphne states with a sigh at the end with Helena looking relieved at them both before they jumped from a knock on the door, "This is Princess Tiabeanie's Maid, Bunty… Is everything alright?"
"Yes, we're just getting around Bunty. Nothing to worry about at all," Helena states aloud as Daphne gave her a kiss on the cheek while still looking sorry, and got around into her own bag as she decided to simply wear the same outfit; hearing the maid herself leave then and away from their room doors.
It was an hour later since everyone ate in the Throne Room; with the Royals being surprised by how much meat Helena ate to which she also apologized while stating, and then getting them to understand things, "If you read my Test, my Creature Side of me requires mostly meat and little veggies at times; Even raw to medium-done meat," Helena states while she was drinking her endless flask of Firewhiskey she secretly brought; blaming Ginny back in her original birth-based time to get her hooked to different varieties of the stuff.
Ginny wanted to come yet she recently found out she was under charms, potions, and even memory blocked as such like Helena, and wanted to get that taken care of, and join them alongside her own girlfriend: Luna Lovegood, eventually.
Seeing the smoke she done after exhaling from her enchanted flask, made her pause on eating a sausage as she then looked at her Uncle who was curious yet asked; seeing Queen Oona was as well, "Perhaps you can tell me what your drinking Helena? It rather seems odd for a mere drink to do that."
"Well… It's called Firewhiskey; A brew from where I come from and this silver flask, here, is enchanted to hold that and more," Helena showed as it was actually her Grandfather's on her Biological Father's Side of the family that indeed made this enchanted, yet custom made flask as it showed a image of the Potter Crest, and held nearly one-hundred or so different alcoholic-based brands by merely thinking it as you hold it, and decided it would be best for her Uncle and the Queen would try some.
Once they were handed a glass with Queen Oona sniffing it, they shrugged before drinking it and froze before being amazed by the strange flavor yet belched smoke after they swallowed it, "Sorry about the smokey taste after that brand. Firewhiskey itself tends to be a small joke on how dragons either breath smoke or fire; Depending on the strength of the brew mostly," Helena decided to tell them as King Zøg hit his chest a few times while small flames did come out of his mouth without harming him, and actually stated in honesty, "That's stuff is slightly better yet equal as a Grog."
"Oh you should see how My Wildfire could handle others in drinking competitions… It was rather funny as she even outdrank my father without him knowing she was immune of getting drunk," Daphne decided to state in humor to quickly get the Royals to look at the Potter Heiress as she swallowed a few more sausages before looking at them since it was Queen Oona who asked, "You are immune to the effects of alcohol? That is rather interesting for a adult as such as yourself."
"Well, technically I may look like I'm around the age you guys may think I am, but-" "Helena is really fourteen yet since she has regeneration abilities, she can drink without the consequences," Hermione states while coming into the room with her being amused by their faces; with Delphi holding her hand, and was led to a small table with a wooden chairs for them to sit by, like Helena and her girls were while they gathered food to eat as well.
Before King Zøg or anybody could reply by what they were surprised once again about with Helena, the doors swing open; with Helena and everyone seeing it was that Prince with her Cousin, a odd cat of sorts that looked familiar, the knights that went with him, and to what she narrowed her eyes at from a familiar voice within the burlap sack.
"Your Majesty, it is with much heroism that I now return Princess Bean, along with this priceless sack of Elf," Prince Merkimer states in confidence while Bean and the others blinked at seeing Helena smiling at them; eyeing mostly Bean before she eyed the Prince with a scowl while he carelessly dropped Elfo onto the stone floor.
"Hi, I'm Elfo!" Elfo states with Helena giggling at him and then at the cat- no demon; to make Helena and Co. go wide eyed as she then sensed this demon was linked to her Cousin while Delphi only titled her head along with showing she was still eating her sausage, within her mouth, "But more importantly, I am the one and only Luci!"
"Who cares what a cat has to say?" King Zøg then states to make Luci look at him in irritated anger slightly, "I'm not a cat! Ah, whatever... I'm gonna go lay down in the window." Luci states yet before he could, he saw Helena beckoned him over and was surprised; like Bean was as she gave him a shot glass of Firewhiskey, and he then left while feeling confused yet also intrigued by the new drink he currently has.
"All I care about is this sweet, precious Elf. Cram him in a cage!" King Zøg declared as within moments, Elfo was then placed in a iron cage to upset Helena over yet was stilled from doing anything by Kisara giving her a mixed look of her not wanting Helena to do what she was going to do, and agreeing rage of sorts.
"Dad, you can't just cage him! Elves are jolly by nature," Bean tried to reason with her father on possibly letting Elfo go or out of his cage; Helena and those with her except her child, figured, yet she was surprised at how stubborn he was, "Lucky for you, I'm a patron of the arts... But all frolicking stays within castle walls," King Zøg tells mostly the Elf Hybrid as Sorcerio gotten a dagger and made two holes at the bottom of his cage for him to stand on, and he grabbed his flute and began to dance… before falling and rolling away down a long thing of stairs, going down in a spiral; with Odval seeing this, "It's still rolling, but he has stopped screaming."
"Someone jab him with a sword, and make sure he's okay," he ignored the bewildered look of Helena at that while he paused before adding; getting Bean to still look at him in disbelief, "Speaking of things getting poked, we've got a wedding to plan still, and for it, the alliance with Bentwood," he ignored the snort Helena then made at the towns name along with Hermione and Daphne, while Kisara and Delphi wondered what was funny, "And Bean could also hang out with her Cousin while she's at it."
"Ew. Dad, think out the words before they come out," Bean states after hearing King Zøg state his words in proclamation before sighing and admitted to his only child, "It's- I know. It felt weird when I said it." Bean then paused before giving him a double take at what he said to her, "Wait… I have a Cousin, who?"
King Zøg only pointed right at Helena who was currently up and tickling her child; making Delphi giggle lightly with her wings flapping, and Bean didn't know what to think on this yet sighed before she groaned at her father by his next words, "You need to bathe though, you stink like Hell."
"We'll scrub you right up, as clean as a child on his funeral day. Arms up!" Bunty states while scrubbing Bean down in the Public Bath. Bunty was a plump handmaiden with brown hair and grey eyes, and kept scrubbing even as Bean stated ouch, in some parts.
"Oh. How my Charlie sparkled this morning when they heaved him into the burial pit. He's in a better place now. Oh, yes, down there with all his little friends," Bunty states while being confused as to why Helena refused to disrobe her gifted robe, along with it being huge on her frame she has; with Bean and her looking on at Bunty in concern by her words until she scrubbed a bit too hard on Bean's back while Helena was leaning nearby and also trying to not blush at seeing why Hermione's warning was this, "Ah. Not so hard!" Seeing Bunty look like she was regretful, Bean sighed while stating in apology to her, "I'm sorry, Bunty. I don't mean to be insensitive about your dead whatever. I just really don't want to marry this wealthy prince. You understand what I mean, right?"
"But it is your duty as a Princess, despite this love," Bean looked as Odval next to her in the tub; on Bean's right, nodded in agreement with the handmaiden while also adding his own words, "We need this marriage to cement our alliance with Bentwood. For our kingdom is rich in tradition, but their kingdom is rich in, well, riches. Plus, I don't see anyone else storming your castle, Princess."
Bean sighed while being stumped as to where that blonde haired male came from; like Helena, as he just agreed while being in Odval's tub, and sighed once again while as Luci popped up within her's on the tub as he merely stated with motion, "Rawr."
Seeing at how uncomfortable Helena was, Odval made her turn away as he got out along with the man, and left with Bean glancing at her since Bunty went to get the towels, "Why don't you get in… I didn't get your name yet Cousin?" Luci tilted his head as despite the drink that was excellent, she did look familiar for some reason yet found it ironic about her name she then told them, "Oh! Ummm… I'm Helena, Helena Lilith Potter," she came over while adjusting the extra-large robe and shook hands with her as Bean only smirked, "Well just call me Bean; Everyone else does, and this is… My cat, Luci."
Kicking said demon who got the point, nodded quickly while wanting to make Bean facepalm as he did meow yet added words, "Yes I'm just a ordinary cat."
Helena only chuckled while shaking her head as she made their eyes go wide by her words, "Oh I'm smarter than Uncle Zøg and everyone as your a demon, not a cat, Luci… You do know your name sounds awfully like that Archangel-Demon: Lucifer I met when I was seven… She was kind of nice in an Aunt-like way."
"Wait, you met The Lucifer I'm named after?! How the Helena did you managed that," Luci asked while using her name as a pun of sorts; to get Bean to groan yet only heard Helena chuckle while brushing some of her hair aside while also admitting to them, "Well, that's a first time my name was used in a sentence like that as I'm somewhat named after the Norse God of... Well, Loki's Daughter; With a twist, but like I said on Lucina; Not Lucifer, was during a… A tough time when I was younger."
Bean was for once in concern along with Luci; only slightly, at seeing a brief glazed look in Helena's eyes before she shook her head and she eyed the tub to make them look at Odval's Tub in slight surprise while she waved her hands and it was then brand new; with hot yet soapy water that oddly smelled of vanilla, lavender, and apple blossoms before grabbing her robes and paused, and asked them kindly as if, she was afraid to what she was going to reveal, "Uhh… Could you two not state anything to anyone about me as I strip? I just don't want this to get the wrong impression as I was born a girl with something… Extra."
"Psh, nothing's gonna surprise me- Oh my god is that a dick!" Bean began to assure her Cousin yet states her surprise; with Helena looking away with a flinch as if, that comment hurt her with Luci also seeing this and states at his bonded yet cursed human, "Nice going."
Helena silently went into the tub and despite Bean seeing that extra stuff, she was impressed by her Cousin's Figure and decided to change the topic at seeing how uncomfortable she was about it, "Ummm… How did you do that with the tub?"
Blinking at Bean's honest question since she began to scrub herself; with Bean and Luci blinking not only in surprise as Helena transfigured a loose rock nearby her into a loofa, but what she stated it was, "Well, Me, Daphne, Hermione; My adopted sister in the Potter Household and your Other Cousin, and My Child: Delphi, are Natural Born Witches, and Kisara though is… Well, she's a Dragon Shifter from my time, the last of her racial kind."
"That explains a lot actually," Luci states to get Bean to gap at her personal demon while she sat in the tub, and made Helena blush though by her own question, "So this magic stuff made you have that and anything else we saw you do?"
"Sometimes, but since I'm the last of the Potter Line, I was born to whom I would be attracted to mostly while having said appendage, but… I didn't always have it as it was sealed away until recently." Helena admits to get Bean to be curious about it yet wondered why she decided to change the subject; with Luci secretly widen his eyes at seeing the signs unlike Bean, to quickly to know one thing; like the two observing them as well back in that kingdom: She was abused somehow. "So… How old are you? I'm actually fourteen."
If a pin would drop, or a record scratching on Well… a recorder, it would be now.
"Your only fourteen?! How the Hell you look older than that as I thought-" Luci states before Bean could as Helena shrugged while also giving the demon male an apologetic look before admitting along with interrupting him while she was scrubbing her legs, "It's due to me being half-human and also early puberty mostly, with uh… A potion causing this as a side effect when I was freed from it, and a few others."
Wondering what she meant by being half-human, Helena shrugged while stating to her Cousin, with Bean rolling her eyes by her words with a question at the end, "I could let you and Luci see my Test Results… You do know how to read right?" "Psh, yes I do Hel… Wait, did you know that your name could also be like-" "Yeah I know, I tend to tell others to just call me "Hel" for short since I like to confuse others with it, and it's also funny," Helena states while grinning at her with Bean then matching her Cousin's with her own, By the Seven Sin Lords, they are alike. Luci thought as they laughed together.
Later on, with Helena wearing that robe, she blinked while seeing Elfo was in apparently Bean's Royal Chambers as she, Bean, and Luci were walking before stopping to check in on her girls, sister, and daughter.
Bean shrugged as she went to her closet while opening it to get dressed; Helena and Luci seeing Elfo turn himself on the bed with curiosity at Bean, and ruined his chance at seeing a naked girl by Luci commenting softly before speaking aloud to her Bean's attention, "Hey, Elfo, what are you lookin' at?" Bean decided to deal with that issue while she re-robed herself, and hanged the Elf Hybrid on the coat rack she has as he tried to make up an excuse mixed with it being honest, "I was just admiring the towel you have... My people don't have terrycloth."
Elfo looked while then getting briefly disappointed as Bean was quickly dressed. She now wore her preferred outfit that's mostly a cyan-colored tunic with white sleeves, brown leggings and tied dark brown colored boots. She is equipped with a belt with a silver buckle.
"I cannot marry that pig named Merkimer… I just can't do it," Bean states to mostly herself out loud while thinking with Helena also giving her an understanding look, yet then blanched with Luci getting excited while Elfo did the same with Helena, "I'm gonna have to kill him or something."
"Do it. Do it, do it, do it! And after you kill him we can hide the body. Then we could join the search party, and you and I can look at each other and try not to laugh," Luci states with glee with Helena understanding from what kind of demon Luci was yet didn't get a chance to say anything as Elfo then stated in the opposite way, to Bean; with the hybrid gripping the sides of his cage while doing so, "No! You're not a murderer, Bean! Well, I mean… You did kill that one guy."
"Nope. Still alive, but suffering greatly." Said person states as blood was still oddly leaking from his head within the church.
"You're a sweet person," Elfo began while trying to state honest things about Bean, "Sure, you're a violent alcoholic, but you're not a killer."
"You're right... I'll go have a few drinks and we'll figure something out," she states with Elfo groaning as his words were twisted by her thought process, yet both him and Helena turned to Luci as he came over to the Half-Elf, and states in a tone he was meaning it, "Oh. Hey, I'm still naked. I'm naked all the time. You just didn't know it, and now you're never gonna un-know it."
"Bean, you think while we're going out, I can bring Delphi with us?" Helena finally states and to get Bean to blink; with Elfo only looking on in confusion, with Luci shrugging as he didn't mind the squirt, "Uhh… I guess... How did you end up with a kid like her anyway?" It seemed Bean didn't say the right thing as Helena looked away at her while she sat down at that, with Bean seeing this and began correcting her mistake… trying at least, "Hey, ummm, I didn't mean any of it… Sure she looks like a strange angel with horns, but still, she's, uh, sweet."
"Nice cover," Luci whispered as he went over to Bean and climbed her body to lay on her left shoulder, and Helena only sighed while giving them a look before making them stiff at this with Elfo placing his hands to his mouth in utter shock, "She was a… She was a product of rape done to me at my First Year in my school I told you about, without me knowing at all, at eleven. I recalled a few things as my blocks of my memories are still coming along, and still I… I regret not knowing how much I missed her since I was also made to truly forget anything at all, along with those I know done as well by a current Old Coot that I hope is still blacklisted as a Council Member, to the Wizengamot," seeing their looks with Luci being secretly surprised by the crimson tear that barely escaped her right eye yet she quickly wiped it away, while laughing sadly and stated with a hopeful convincing smile, "I might let Mia explain it better as I have yet to go into politics yet."
Nodding at her for this, they turned as Sorcerio hesitantly came into the room; secretly overhearing Helena's words while he decided to change topics and asked carefully; suspicion now being shown from Helena's orbs, "Uh, might we borrow this little man for a moment? I just need to pick his brain. Through his nostrils."
Seeing everyone but Helena was distracted; thinking at her spot, he took Elfo while Luci decided to bring back a previous subject, "So, how we gonna kill your Fiancé? Candlestick in the conservatory? Candlestick in the face?" He better not harm Elfo badly, as that little man is naive but I think he's a little brother in actions, Helena thought while seeing Bean was getting ready to leave with an idea in mind; following her as she stated her idea aloud, "I think we need to be a little bit more discreet."
Helena was now with Bean and Luci at the shopping district they had with her letting Kisara to watch Delphi as she only giggled while in her other Mother's hold with her catching up on conversation with her blinking in surprise Bean would stoop to this level of shopping, "...This one causes slow, painful death," the poison seller states as he showed mostly Bean the bottles of each option, "This one kills you with kindness and some belladonna… And this one's so poisonous you can't even hold it in a bottle," Helena blinked and states in remark to that, "Then shouldn't you not be holding that vial then?"
"Oh…. Oh! Excuse me," he said before falling down dead as he went to take a step; with Helena giving her Cousin a disbelieving look, "Is Dreamland this dense Bean? I mean come on, I would have used Horntail Hide Gloves for that very vial to not die from it." Bean only shrugged yet intrigued by what that dragon was yet Luci knew as the manager at this time, came into the room without seeing the dead body just yet, "Have you folks been helped?"
"We're still browsing…" Bean seeing the dead body though decided then on her choice, "Uh, you know what? I'm just not comfortable with murder." Once they left the shop with Helena finding a odd twist of humor of seeing a "Help Wanted Sign" now being placed within the window, she grabbed her child who giggled when she tossed her into the air and noticed Bean's look as she then held Delphi easily on the hip; the child eyeing like a cat-like fashion, on Luci's Tail, "Hey… What is it?"
Shaking her head, Bean placed a smile on her face that fooled Helena only slightly by her words, "Nothing at all Hel, let's just go maybe find a different way to end this marriage of mine."
After traversing for a few hours, Helena and everyone sat at a outside booth for a moment; at a restaurant since Delphi was hungry alongside a few of them, as Bean groaned while hitting her head a few times on the table; Kisara joined them as she was only browsing for something Daphne might need, "There's got to be another way to get rid of him." She states after raising her head and looked on in amusement as Delphi was tugging Luci's Tail briefly while holding the demon as if, he was a doll while he also stated at the same time, to quit it as Helena pointed out the obvious; to make Bean roll her eyes; Luci oddly enough nodding his head at her as by now, Helena knew her Cousin quite well, "You could just marry him and drive him mad with your indecisiveness, as from my Black Part of the family where I was born, they did that sometimes just to get their money… Although they used mostly potions or spells to do so."
"Hmm…. I don't know, we're running out of time," Bean states with her oddly thankful that Helena paid for them all while also paying for a Glog for her to go with alongside Luci… even though she was disturbed slightly at that part, and eventually came to a lane where she eyed something; picking it up while showing them, "What if I rub a sick chicken all over his face and hope for the best?"
Helena recoiled at the chicken as it sickly cawed at them before they all shook their heads no, and no one at all saw Luci ate said bird.
"Momma. Pretty clock," Delphi states with her small wings flapping to then get Bean and Helena to look at it. It then chimed while Helena made her child giggle before looking at Bean, since she stated aloud her idea at seeing a mermaid-like display pass around while the clock chimed around the display it has, "Mermaids! Are you thinking what I'm thinking?"
Carrying her child on her hip again; loving the feeling of this, Helena blinked while her daughter only tilted her head cutely to the side as she stated, "Are you saying Sirens? Mermaids that Hermione and I looked up a while back are not only different, but they tend to sing above the water."
"Are you saying that the Mermaids that we know are in fact different then the ones you know, Hel?" Bean blinked while asking in surprise before they turned to Luci then who was bored and was also smoking a different brand of a cigarette, from Helena, by it being Old Toby she recently gotten from the Exotic Shop, in which she bought it all; seeds as well, and exhaled while stating the obvious, "Witch, remember? All Witches have to at least know any race as such."
Shrugging at the demon's words, Bean was seeing her Cousin; Helena was looking thoughtful as she saw a sign that said: Wedding Site Fair, seven miles, and then states to quickly get both Luci and Bean to blink at her question, "I want to try something that may confuse you two, since I have Chaos Magic... I was wondering if you two would like to take a shortcut to where that place is," when she spoke, she pointed at the sign with Bean being awed by this; with Luci being impressed while stating to her with Bean not seeing Helena hesitate slightly by them as Kisara did, "Now I definitely have to read your Test, Hell-Bell."
Bean looking nervous at what her Cousin had planned as she handed Delphi to Kisara who she saw a gleam oddly in her orbs, and Helena looking at her then, "Do you trust me?" Seeing Luci hop onto her shoulders while at the same time, tossing the used butt of his cigarette away into the street as she saw her Cousin was oddly thinking of her, and sighed since she wanted to actually get their on time, "Might as well get this over with, go ahead."
Kisara though states to them both as they saw Helena smile small at them before closing her eyes; recalling the area the site was from traveling with Elfo; secretly protecting her child by the aid of her Dragon Soulmate, and Kisara using her Dragon Magic to send their purchases right to their rooms into Bean's Castle, "I suggest you take a deep breath if I were you," and before Bean could ask while Delphi hugged Kisara as she only took a deep breath with Luci quickly doing the same, shivered oddly enough as seeing Helena's eyes glow that eerie color since that one aura covered her frame, made them all teleport to said location.
If they stayed though, where Kisara would have been was a jagged arrow with a cloaked figure with knight-designed, mail-like armor, with the figure cursing before leaping from the rooftop in a ninja-like fashion; vanishing with smoke afterward.
Meanwhile back in The Castle:
Hermione was currently struggling to not bonk the old man since he asked for advice, on the head; alongside Helena's uncle as they were all within Sorcerio's Study since they now began trying to extract Elfo's Blood; with her actually feeling sorry for the one girl they dubbed as "Mop Girl". Daphne though wanted to do something to which she slipped yet Hermione only nodded too as she recalled reading about Soulmate Bonds and knew eventually her sister would have to face her fears otherwise… I don't want to think about it as it would put Daphne in the bad light for a while.
Hermione then saw them get a odd contraption that they poked the beginning part; her realizing it was a blood extraction device of sorts, to Elfo's right leg as he commented to them all then, "Something tickles… Is there a mosquito on my leg?" The machine of sorts, then began to extract his blood. "Behold, Sire, as I extract a small quantity of blood… Although, I only have a small quantity of blood," Sorcerio states in hidden excitement while trying to act professional; to Hermione's eye roll and Mop Girl's own while she cleaned the bookshelf or tried too as King Zøg stated with a soft hand clap, "Excellent."
"I've asked the eminent Lord Lingonberry to take part in the experiment," Sorcerio then declared as the old man did indeed came into the room while then stating as they strapped him down to the table, "And may I say what a deep honor it is to assist His Majesty in this most-" "Just strap him down!" King Zøg orders with the old man continuing anyways, "This is the first interesting thing that's ever happened to me."
"To test the revitalizing influence of the blood, I shall apply a small measure to the scalp to regrow his Lordship's once-lavish hair," Sorcerio states then as he gotten a dropper, let it wicked a little of Elfo's Blood, and dropped it on his head with Hermione sighing inwardly to herself yet didn't say anything as it is the Dark Ages after all while the old wizard of sorts, also stated the words, doink, when he did.
"Nothing's happening," King Zøg then stated as they all noticed that morning indeed was happening yet Sorcerio thought he saw growth, "But, ho! Some hair has sprouted in his ear." The King, however, disagreed while he pointed out, "His ears were always like that! It's like he keeps paintbrushes in there." Hermione held back a laugh at that with hearing a snort from Mop Girl now cleaning the table near the bookshelves she was finished with.
"Yes, well, I suppose the life-giving magic may take a while," Sorcerio then states to The King before also looking over while at the same time, unclasping the old man from the slab table for labs back then, "Uh, come back in a few days, Lord Lingonberry… Lord Lingonberry?" King Zøg poked him a few times and Sorcerio then stated in hidden surprise after checking him, "He's dead." The King only shrugged at this as he replied back, "Pity. He was a good man; A family man."
Hermione was appalled yet Mop Girl only shook her head in silent wording meaning, don't say it, as Sorcerio pulled a switch that once they placed the dead man on the floor, he went down into a shoot and also saw; to her horror, right into a pig pen in which, they quickly began to eat the dead man's corpse.
"Clearly, the volume of blood was inadequate…. To extract greater quantities, we'll need more sophisticated methods," Sorcerio thought out loud while placing a hand to his chin as King Zøg only nodding in agreement before Sorcerio turned to the servant girl and stated firmly; which she regretted yet still did, "Mop Girl, milk him." Grabbing a cow pail for milking back in the day, she grabbed Elfo's exposed feet while he stayed with indeed a lightheaded look, "My brain feels dry."
Hermione sighed at this while Sorcerio decided to go get something to add more plans to his experiments and maybe better blood pressure to extract more blood, and turned to Hermione; surprising her at his offer, "Miss Granger, could you perhaps watch the progress of the blood exchange while I go get more items to get the Elf's Blood more easier?" Nodding reluctantly, he came over and gave Hermione a friendly or on the back before leaving with King Zøg going Due to getting hungry, and sighed before looking at the servant girl and made her still temporarily yet she resumed her task, "Do you perhaps have a name?"
Seeing her be silent while hearing Elfo oddly giggle still while looking a paler-like green color, Hermione looked at the bookshelf and was going to get a book that caught her interest yet stilled while still grabbing then book afterward while hearing a quiet voice speak to her, "Marabelle… Marabelle Lila Zimmons."
"Well, I have a feeling your smarter than you look, Marabelle," Hermione began while Marabelle only gave her a look while she kept doing her task before Elfo states he was getting tired and stopped. "I… I wasn't originally from Dreamland, and was a Sea Captain's Daughter," Marabelle began while cleaning up her mess yet sighed as the blood quantity wasn't enough to please her savior, "Things happened while in a storm. I survived, and… He didn't along with most of the crew. I was then placed in the Kingdom's so-called Orphanage before being bought by a Slave Trader that saw me as a potential slave, to others, and that's when Sorcerio bought me in odd sympathy, and ever since… I was dubbed as 'Mop Girl' with him being one of the few to get to know me."
Hermione was saddened by this, yet made her jump while going wide eyed like she was afterward as to when Hermione used her wand; a rare mix of her old one with a hellcat's whisker added due to what she became, for cleaning the mess, it turned out Marabelle had accidently used magic in being surprised as some of the scrapped paper Sorcerio tossed out quickly folded up into some origami animals that mostly resemble birds, flew out the window, and Hermione then states in a surprised tone to her then, "You have magic?"
"We're here at last!" Bean states in relief before she held her mouth and puked into a nearby barrel with Helena wincing; Luci only looking amused while commenting at Helena with being impressed as he sat on a barrel near Bean, "After teleporting us a few times for the last ten minutes to random places, I have to say you may have potential with Chaos Magic… In fact I was able to nab this for myself at that one spot," Luci held up a Small Emu before he engulfed it in one bite while stating; not seeing Kisara shield Delphi's eyes or Helena looking like she too was about to barf like Bean, "Mmm, tasty!"
It was then Helena noticed the odd ring her daughter has in her hands and stated while taking it, "Dee, did you take that ring when I told you not to?" The ring itself was a infused sapphire and emerald gem of sorts with the design resembling to that of bones for the metallic parts; which was pure gold and the gem itself was smooth-cut into the shape of a hexagon while being placed within vine-like metal that was celestial bronze and at each corner, showed a small cross.
"Momma it pretty," She only stated innocently as Helena sighed before blinking since the ring vanished and appeared on her middle finger on her left hand.
"What the hell?! Get off!" Helena states as she tried yet failed to get the ring off with Luci finding this ironic yet funny: ironic due to the aura he guessed was god-based and funny the way she was trying to get it off, with her teeth as Kisara sighed while Delphi wobbled over and tugged on Bean's clothing; to make her blink in surprise since the child figured her mother was busy yet stunned by the title Delphi dubbed her with, "Aunty Bean, up!"
Bean hesitated yet when Delphi give her the wide eyed look with a whimper to her lips, she quickly caved and carefully while avoiding the child's wings, picked her up as Delphi lightly giggled; with Luci making Bean look at him by his words next with an eyeroll, "Whipped."
Helena though gave up and sighed as one of the few locations they randomly got teleported by her to felt off, dark with light, and otherworldly while seeing they were in a goth-like bedroom that was mostly supernatural-like themed for what Raven Roth would have from 1990's Teen Titans. And that ring did catch her interest while oddly feeling a little pleased of Bean holding her child, along with Luci oddly making her laugh by peek-a-scaring her; his demon version of peek-a-boo, Well… This is karma I guess for having a kid, in which I wouldn't trade her for the world.
Eventually letting Bean hand over her child to Kisara; who made them both jump with Luci for once being stunned, formed wings behind her back that resembled to her race, and her eyes glowing a neon-blue while she gently yet quickly took off back to the Castle, with Delphi.
"No wonder why she seems all stuck up, she's one of those Light-Based Dragon's from Egyptian Lore," Luci now states aloud with Bean quickly giving Helena a look, in which she shrugged and mouthed later while the three began to head to where the Prince of Bentwood might be. "Now we hope Merkimer's a big enough idiot to fall for this Mermaids- I mean Siren Plan." Bean states while also correcting herself.
"I'm feeling optimistic," Luci states to Bean as when they entered, Helena and Bean gave each other a look as it seems he was trying on wigs; for some reason, and she then along with Luci, did a 'Go ahead' motion.
"So, Merkimer," Bean began while catching his attention only slightly as he was mostly focused on himself, "I know I've been a little cold and distant, and some would say overflowing with revulsion-" "That's okay. I don't listen to women." He states while checking himself out to them, not seeing Helena's eyes flowed briefly in anger at this alongside the ring as well; that catching Luci's attention yet he didn't say anything, "But before we marry and I enter a state of semi-permanent pregnancy, Woo!" Bean at the end did a fake cheer since she continued her previous words, "I just wanted to make sure you have some fun."
After following him to the next tent and Helena inwardly thought he was a more bastardized version of Draco Malfoy; but without the blonde hair, as he was getting a panting down while he was only in his undies, Bean finished her words to him then, "That's why I insist you have a bachelor party. It'll be way out on the open seas where the only law is the law of no laws," Bean then whispered to him as he was half-paying attention to her, "Anything goes. Anything goes." She then shouted aloud to startle him, "Anything goes!"
"They call it a party barge, and it's charting a course for Mermaid Island," Bean states as he was now getting fitted for his royal wear for the wedding, and he paused in sudden interest before he asked her curiously, "This island has real Mermaids? It's not just named after Gerald K. Mermaid?" That got Helena to decide to look up if that man was real or not later as Bean only nodded before stating to him in a convincing way, "It was named after him, but it also has true Mermaids."
"Intriguing…" Merkimer states yet paused before asking Bean while glancing at her, "But don't Mermaids use their mesmo-songs to lure men to their deaths?" "Ah, only weak-minded men fall for that. So you'll be pretty much fine," Bean quickly thoughts up with Helena oddly impressed by how quick she was; Luci was as the Prince then states to her, with devotion, "Very well, I'm in."
With the Prince of Bentwood busy to himself, Bean sighed in relief before looking at Luci as he states to the two teens, "What a gullible idiot… Can I go, too?" Helena then gave a quizzical look at the two with Bean gently patting her Cousin's back in reassurance, "You mean we could join a Bachelor Party?" "Think of it this way Hel," Bean began with a smirk alongside Luci nodding his head in agreement while they left the tent, "You get to see what I'm good at tonight."
Once they were away from the fair and out in the open, Bean and Luci was confused yet shocked as Helena pushed mostly her out of the way; the demon hitching a ride on her shoulders since a very familiar arrow nearly hit them as said arrow was firmly stuck to the ground; not seeing the same person from before silently groaning to themself, and vanished to a different spot before they could look. "What the hell was that… No pun this time with your name Helena," Bean states aloud while looking at her before they ducked as another arrow nearly hit them this time while they began running while the enchanted arrows then began to follow them, "Does this happen all the time Bean!" Helena yelled out as they were nearing the entrance to the Kingdom.
Yet before she could respond in retort back to Helena as they were near the entrance, she shoved them away while getting struck by one of them; the figure dancing in success yet froze while patting themself down and quickly groaned while realizing it was a special arrow that hit the target that they were experimenting with, and vanished.
"Oh god, Helena why did you do that!" Bean exclaims yet they were surprised as Helena merely looked at the arrow that was lodged right in her hip, and freaked Bean out while also impressing Luci, at the same time as he only thought of reading that test once again from then witnessing Helena grunt yet easily removed the arrow out of her; not seeing a purple liquid drip from it right into her body before she used her magic to levitate the arrow, and sent it right into a passing cart that was empty.
"I had to… Family sticks together, right?" Helena states softly with Bean helping her up and before she could state anything, they were amazed as her wound began to quickly heal itself fully, "Regeneration, glad that kicked in."
"Wait… Not only you have magic, but you can regenerate yourself?" Bean states to Helena who only nodded while they began to walk into town, and Luci thought to himself with intrigue, Well, it seems Miss Witchy here is going to be more than meets the eyes.
While Bean, Helena, and Luci was within the castle by this point; with it being night, Sorcerio began another experiment with Hermione excusing herself to read that book still, and secretly gave a small book to Marabelle to read.
"Our first experiment with the Elf Blood was inconclusive," Sorcerio began with King Zøg observing the wizened wizard as he gotten another eyedrop and let it sick up a few drops of Elfo's Blood; with said Elf Hybrid looking very pale and skinny of sorts (Sorta like a elf-like anorexic, but not truly), "But these new tests shall reveal its restorative powers."
Sorcerio then dropped a few drops from the eyedropper and saw the dead bird twitch a few times yet didn't at all move, "Hmm…" the old man states to himself while he carried the metallic plate with the bird on it while he then tossed the bird, "Fly! Oh… Seems it was too early." When he went back inside with Luci down below; smoking some more weed yet opened his maw quickly while eating the bird, tossed his cigarette away into a mud puddle nearby and vanished.
Before the old man could state to King Zøg about this, Helena and Bean chose this time to enter, along with Daphne; with Bean getting to know her cousin's one of two Soulmate's for nearly twenty minutes or so, froze like they did with Daphne suddenly sensing her Soulmate's intentions by glaring at Sorcerio, held her back while Bean went to check on the Elf Hybrid.
"Are you okay?" Bean asked him while secretly in her tone was concern while Elfo responded weakly back as he gripped his cage, "If I say no, will I seem less manly?" Bean nearly chuckled despite the situation since she oddly find that was indeed funny yet also sweet mixed yet states to him, "Elfo, that's not possible."
Bean now turned to her father while he only rolled his eyes at her while she was angered at him, "Why don't you pick on someone your own size? Like a barn!"
King Zøg rolled his eyes at his daughter's insult while heading over to Elfo, and tapping gently his cage as he did so, "First of all, sweetie, shut up. I'm not gonna hurt this little guy," he turned to look at them all while ignoring Helena's enraged yet disbelieving look at him along with Bean's, "I'm gonna leech the magic out of him. Don't you want a magic daddy?"
Bean, Daphne, and even Helena blanched at that while Bean responded in kind l back with a disgusted look briefly on her face, "No! Gosh. I don't want a magic daddy, and I would never call you that even if you were!" King Zøg rolled his eyes as if, this was one of Bean's basic comments she states to him or something, "You just want your stupid 'Elixir of Life' so you can be immortal and rule forever… God, you're selfish and cruel."
"Selfish? Maybe. But cruel? Ah, also maybe," King Zøg states with a shrug to them and make Helena grip on the nearby chair with her oddly feeling weird, before shaking her head while Daphne saw yet seeing her Soulmate didn't want to talk about it, remained silent.
"Sire, harnessing the blood's power has proven difficult… Perhaps if I had more to work with-" "Look at this! There's more blood in my chamber pot," King Zøg interrupts Sorcerio when he was asking permission to obtain more blood from Elfo as The King of Dreamland gestured to the very little amount within the flask as during all of this, Elfo was on a automatic extractor for this age as it was slowly doing it's intended job, "If this flask isn't filled with Elf Blood by morning, we'll grind him to a paste and see if that works better," King Zøg ordered to them; mostly at Sorcerio while he then left.
"Oh! If that paste doesn't work, I'm in real trouble," Elfo states as the old man left while leaving the three girls and Elf Hybrid to themselves; Luci appearing from a shaded spot within the area while they began to watch the vial slowly drip with Elfo's Blood while a few minutes later; around the start of night with Helena tucking her child in before returning, states to them all, "I'm an optimist. I say the flask is half-full."
"It's not," Luci admits in a negative way with Elfo giving him a look, "Don't be so negative, where there's a will, there's a way." "There's not," Luci states to get Elfo to groan at the demon.
Daphne though saw Helena blush briefly before shaking her head, and asked her in sudden concern, "You ok Helena?" She only nodded to Daphne while she was warm all over; mostly her specific areas and her chest; but chose to ignore the odd feeling as soon as it came, it went away. They, however, began hearing the pigs go at it again with some of them eating that dead body still, "Shut your snouts, you dumb pigs, or I'm gonna-" Bean then blinked as a sudden idea came to her with everyone turning to her, then, "Oh, wait."
"Did you know that pigs are 80% blood?" Bean states now while Daphne and Helena aided the Princess on lifting the pig behind a red curtain and then hooking the device from Elfo to said pig; the blood quickly filling, "Really? I thought it was just fat and mostly meat then blood, Bean," Helena admits while Luci states after seeing the pig was pale, "Not anymore."
"I must admit, the quantity of blood exceeded my expectations," Sorcerio states aloud a mere few hours later from his thoughts, as Helena and the others gave up on some of the logistical sense while thankful their shoes were covering their feet since the pig's blood filled the floor, slightly. King Zøg though only observed this with him being impressed along with deeply thinking to himself.
"So Elfo is free to go?" Bean asked her dad expectantly while Luci looked at Helena with worry as she felt warm again before the feeling faded away; not seeing that her body twitched; especially at a specific part of her anatomy, "Hmm… For now." The King states before looking down and trudging out of the room along with Sorcerio who commented that he would fetch the Mop Girl to clean it up, "Looks like I picked the wrong day to wear sandals."
"Was I the only one hoping for more blood?" Luci asked out of the blue to them all while Elfo then commented after Bean freed him, "I feel weak and queasy."
"What you need is a nice, long, boat ride," Luci tells the Elf Hybrid to make him wonder about that before Helena; to suddenly worry Daphne, fell onto her knees while panting, "Hel, you ok?" Trying to say she was ok, yet failed, made Bean and Co. worried as her eyes were glowing.
Luci then touches Helena's forehead while stating a hmm-like sound before making her look to him with wide eyes that were still glowing, in worry by his words, yet winced from the look by Daphne at her, "Must've been from earlier today… Seems whatever was in that arrow is doing something that your body is trying to fight over."
"You got shot, again? This time with something unknown?" Daphne states before sighing while holding the bridge of her nose; to get Bean and both Luci and Elfo confused before said Elf Hybrid yelped while they blinked in surprise from seeing him looking healthier then he was before, "Yep, her magic is acting up like before as her body is either adjusting or trying to get rid of something foreign."
"Wait… What do you mean her-" "ACHOO!" Bean began to say something to the blonde before Helena sneezed as a lightning bolt came out of her mouth; bouncing all over the place before it went out the window and zapped one of the scepters King Zøg has over the years tossed when he was angry at a specific place they always landed at. "Like that," Daphne says while helping Helena up yet blushed at briefly feeling on her side the odd heat doing something to her as well, in which she didn't want to say anything as it went away.
"I'm still going," Helena says while she sneezed once again as a green fireball came from her mouth and did the same thing, yet it hit a passing hawk that was after a cat before roasting it alive before Daphne shook her head; with Bean and the others sensing an argument was about to take place, couldn't decide if they would want to stay or leave, "But this time you need to not be stubborn, My Wildfire, and listen to me," Daphne tells her firmly to get Helena to look at her; her eyes she felt go right into her soul from them glowing as they were, "You are not going in your condition… Who knows what your body is reacting to this time."
Helena though looked stubborn yet blushed with feeling her enchanted underwear get tight rather suddenly and not, a few times, to know whatever was ailing her was affecting her lower parts as well, yet shook her head and before she could reply to Daphne they all looked at Luci as she sneezed at him accidently yet was grossed out as he ate it; understanding in his orbs, "She would be fine by tomorrow as whatever that thing contained would be gone by then." But from what I tasted...Maybe kickstarting her secondary puberty for her Half-Race she has, slowly, and would occur to maybe confuse the Young Half-Chaos Drake. Luci thought to himself.
Bean, however, sighed at her demon's words as they have yet to be led the wrong direction, and watched as Helena was carried by Daphne to her surprise with Daphne grinning and stating; making Bean and Luci be surprised while she chuckled; to make him wide eyed at her in being secretly impressed while Elfo… was only confused, "My Demigod Inheritance recently kicked in today, so I won't need help carrying My Wildfire, for once."
She then left with Helena before they could ask her who her supposed parent was, and Elfo states aloud in gentle awe at the two; mostly commenting about Daphne since he only gotten to know Helena, and her daughter, "She seemed nice."
Next Day (November 30th, 2014, in real time), at The Barge:
"All aboard the party barge! I hope you like fun and soggy pretzels," The Ship Master states aloud while greeting the bachelors as they were all looking from the males going onto the boat itself.
Last night, Helena was relieved as her magic acted up slightly; with her also inwardly thanking herself she brought the "Special Books" that listed on her new problem as when she felt better, she was warm around her upper torso and well... she was shocked, to say the least; after she looked in the mirror. Though that didn't stop Daphne's hands automatically rubbing her off to stain their sheets last night, and making her shiver at this, however, since Daphne wanted to do something to make up for her actions their Bond was forcing her to do; despite wanting to come yet realized it would be family bonding time of sorts, and Kisara was thankfully going to watch Delphi with Hermione doing a side project with her being for once, secretive about it.
Helena though wore instead of her main outfit, a gothic woman's shirt that was dark jade in color; matching her eyes somewhat yet also bringing them out more with black mesh sleeves, basic black devil fashionable-like dragon hide redemption women's gothic pants with dull-steel studs with the pants having a design of a dragon on her left leg in crimson and yellow while on her right was a snake in green and silver colors; with said images spiraling from the ankle for the tail, all the way up to her thighs for the heads. She also wore a vest that Dean Winchester would wear; but made of the scales from her three dragons (Her two Dragon Sister's and her Soulmate; her pants as well mixed with acromantula silk; secretly like all her outfits) as they were magically died in ebony night colors while clearly showing Greek Runes on the right stating her two Soulmate's names fully while on the left was her daughter's; with Helena enchanting said item to display certain things like family, Soulmates, and children. And lastly, she wore the same combat boots as before.
This was the Adventurous Outfit she brought, along with her Formal Gown, Night Gown, and her Main Outfit as she didn't want to bring that much clothing into the past when she could easily clean each one, with ease.
"I hope you like me yelling!" Bean shouts back in return as all four; Bean, Elfo, Luci, and Helena were at the plank before one of the knights; Pendergast or otherwise known as the Head Knight and Leader of the Zøg Table Knights, stopped her mostly and states in both a firm and soft tone; making Bean roll her eyes at him for, "Stop right there, Your Ladyness. A delicate flower like yourself, and the Lady Potter, has no place aboard-" Bean then impressed Helena as she quickly kicked him; the Head Knight that is, in the gut while she merely began to go up the plank; the other two males and Helena joining her while hearing the knight state with a wheeze, "Good point."
Helena was uncomfortable though from seeing older men on the ship itself; leering at her or gawking in surprise as her figure went well with all her clothes to not hide her curves, and whispered while walking with Bean still; right in her ear briefly, "Are you sure we could go?" Seeing her puzzled look before it switched to an oh-based one by her next whispered words, "I mean, we're girls… Well, mostly you are since you know what I am-" Bean placed a finger to her Cousin's lips to stop her talking and just plainly stated with a tone of confidence, "Relax Hel, I tend to do a lot of things that even Dad don't know."
Ignoring the quizzical look from Helena, Bean groaned though at seeing Prince Merkimer come over and state than in hidden excitement with arrogance mixed, "I'm so glad you're coming along, Bean… And her odd Cousin," Helena let her eyes glow briefly to which he ignored while she was imagining her kicking him where it counts all the way to China, and back, "You'll both get to know the crazy, fun me, before spending the rest of your life with the boring, bossy me, Princess Bean…. I'm lucky in so many ways."
Bean stuck out her tongue once he left then with Helena shaking her head as it seems she more mature than her Cousin, and they all looked at the Ship Master while he then states aloud for everyone to hear him while at the wheel, "Now listen up, you landhuggers: This may be a party barge, but the dangers of Mermaid Island be all too real… So drink responsibly!"
Bean seeing her Cousin was hesitant while everyone began doing their own thing once the ship took off, nudged her as Luci smirked while giving them two Glogs and went away while also going to get himself one, "Come on Hel, live a little. I was thinking maybe you could trick some guys here on the ship to a drinking contest, since… Well, you can't get drunk and all."
"You want me to cheat out some males on their money?" Helena states in fake accusation to make Bean look away before playfully hitting her on the side as Helena then laughed lightly before grinning at her, "I'm game."
It was a few hours later with Helena making more currency by doing as Bean suggested while smirking at her Cousin while she tipped her with her own Glog alongside Luci was drinking his own, and Elfo… well, "Spin the Elf! Spin the Elf!" They were using him like a bottle from the game: Spin the Bottle, as earlier they used darts, cards, drinking games, and more.
For once while she was with kin, Helena felt relaxed slightly more along with actually enjoying herself.
"Spin the-" "Attention on the party barge! We be sailing now into treacherous waters," the Ship Master states to then get not only Bean's but Helena's attention while she placed her bag of cheated coin into her outfit's pocket, and everyone looked anxiously as the sun was setting currently for a perfect dawn, and the Ship Master at the helm of the ship continued as they gazed at the sights along with what he stated. "To starboard, man-eating sharks. To port, a sunset so beautiful the rest of your life will seem anticlimactic. But the worst lies ahead! For there lurk the twin shores of Mermaid Island and Walrus Island… And you don't want to mix those up, believe me."
Helena went over to her cousin while nudging her, and whispered; nearly making Bean choke yet snorted while at the same time, gulped down what she had in her mouth of Glog, "From personal experience no doubt."
Moments later, everyone was getting prepared while the males were being tied to the mast, except the Ship Master; one by one on each pole-like mast. "Let's get this underway, shall we? Everyone line up single file to get lashed to the masts… God forbid you lose control and jump overboard. We don't want that," he was carrying; to disgust Helena as she decided to use the Hear-Me Yet Not Spell or a spell that would block out enchanting sounds, from seeing him carrying earwax in a box, and setting it down near her, Bean, and both Luci and Elfo, "Anyone not tied down better plug your ears."
"'Ear Wax? Does it mean it's for ears or from ears?" Bean questioned while seeing Helena shake her head and used her hand in a unseen wave to make Bean blink as she lost hearing briefly before it returned, along with Elfo as Luci shook his head no, "Arr, you'll want to put the wax in before you hear me answer." Bean did take the wax, but she tossed it overboard while Elfo; to make Helena cringe, did take some, despite her enchanting his ears like theirs.
Once the Ship Master left them to go back to the helm, Bean nudged her Cousin with a smirk while asking in wonder and excitement since secretly, she liked seeing her Cousin so laid back and acting like herself along with not being fidgety and tensed, "You did something to our ears, didn't ya?" Seeing the nod Helena gave her, Bean just grinned yet went over to Elfo and told the Elf Hybrid something while pointing to Prince Merkimer, and he nodded, and quickly went over; with Helena seeing and hearing the Prince nod his head in agreement.
"Tighter, man, tighter! I have poor impulse control," the Prince states to Elfo firmly while admitting something that only Helena heard yet she figured he didn't while using her sight to see Elfo didn't possibly do as he was told from Bean, and came back within moments.
Bean then asked him then while leaning on a pole that Luci used he tail for to tie himself up on, "You remembered to use a slipknot, right?" Giving Bean a what-like look, he shouted at her, "I can't hear you! I've got wax in my ears!" Rolling her eyes, Bean grabbed his earwax while being repulsed only a little by it as she asked him again, "You rigged it so he'll break free and leap overboard, right?" Seeing he had a blank look at that made Helena held back a chuckle before Bean reminded him, "The plan?" Elfo then had a idea as to what she was saying then, "Oh. Yeah, yeah, yeah… Well, no. I couldn't do it."
"Ugh," Bean groaned while facepalming herself at Elfo's actions while they turned to Luci who shrugged, and Helena was the only one to feel him conjuring something from behind him yet blinked as it was a dagger of sorts, "Elf defense? Try self-defense, Just go cut the ropes." Then then began to fight over the dagger with Bean looking at them back and forth and due to her Black Genes kicking in, Helena found this oddly amusing, "Stop! No! Don't do it!" "Do it. Do it." "I can't jump that high-"Do it!" "-That's not fair." "-Don't listen to Elfo." "You're playing to your strengths, and not mine."
Elfo though succeeded somewhat as the dagger slipped and moved to the edge of the ship, and ended up into the waters below, "See? Even the Gods don't want you to do it." Elfo states to them all; mostly to Bean who briefly groaned before an idea came to herself while gesturing to her teeth, "Then they shouldn't have given me these big, bad, buck teeth."
Once Bean took off, Helena shook her head while getting an odd feeling, and decided to see if Luci would want to bet with her, "Hey Luci," getting the demon's attention, she then asked her bet-like question, "I bet that Bean's Plan would somewhat work yet fail, and if I lose the bet: You can have a year's supply of that whiskey I let you have." Luci briefly had a gleam in his eyes at this with him being amused, while Elfo was in small disbelief at looking at the two, "If you win, you can owe me a favor or something, Deal?" Luci stated back.
Luci freed his arm out and Helena saw it was glowing briefly, and shrugged as when she shook it, she jumped by the unexpected surge of a Deal-like Agreement that she read about for demon's now happen between them both, and looked onwards while hearing Elfo state to her before he sighed as she didn't respond while Luci replaces his arm back within his tail-like wrapping, "Why did you make a deal? Their hardly kept."
With Bean, she came over behind Merkimer while stating deviously mixed with a tone the gullible man didn't detect, "My Prince, may I give you one last kiss for good luck? On the forearm, for whatever reason?" Prince Merkimer tried to look at Bean yet shrugged while stating as Bean fake-kissed his arm before gnawing at his ropes with her buck teeth, "That's kind of a Mother's thing, but sure."
Once Bean returned as they were waiting for her as Luci asked before Helena; making her briefly look at the demon with a gleam in her orbs, "Did it work?" Bean only showed them her teeth while pointing at them to see remnants of the rope in them, before spitting them out onto the deck.
However, seeing as they were not going to the right isle as the Mermaid Isle looked better than the one they were heading, Helena didn't say a word otherwise she would instantly lose the bet. "All hands, brace fer Mermaids! And their irresistible song," the Ship Master declared while Helena turned to Luci as he remarked the man's words with only a small insult, "If it's smooth jazz, I will destroy this place."
How would he know about… Never mind, I don't want to know, Helena now thought curiously yet was then thankful for her magic as they then heard what was supposedly their music being sung: The Mermaids Song.
"It's beautiful." "Such angelic voices." "I've never heard a song so sweet and delicate." Helena and those with her heard… well all but Elfo since he had earwax back in his ears again before looking where Prince Merkimer was while they were seeing he was struggling in his place, "I must have sex with its origin," Bean was anticipating yet grinned as the rope broke to indeed free the man while he stated it as such, "Ha! I'm free! Lead the way, loins."
The Prince; from what Bean and Helena mostly could see, swam up to the isle as she went pale since she saw the fog was slowly lifting away, "I'm Merkimer… I can't wait to meet you… I don't need your names, though." It revealed to be manatees that we're singing on the isle itself; Helena figures it was Walrus Isle with the Prince of Bentwood too focused and also hazed to realize this… or he was truly just plain dumb while stating aloud; getting the manatees to look at him, "Ladies, the legends do not do you justice. Not one mention of your fuzzy muzzles," he then did a open hug-like gesture as they headed over to him after he then declared to them all, "Climb aboard."
"Uh... Should we be doing something?" Elfo hesitantly asked while being concerned yet Helena saw Luci while Elfo spoke, had one of his cigarettes magically placed in his mouth and easily used his left arm; after he got it freed, to smoke it as from the gleam in his orbs, she figured he was amused by the current events, " I'm already smoking and laughing. What more do you want?" He then laughed at the end of his words while they all witness the events in the water eventually subsided as the manatees dragged the Prince down.
"Whoa! Listen." "They've stopped singing." A few men state with the Ship Master declaring in agreement as he took the wax from his ears as Bean pretended she did to not rouse suspicion, "Aye, their siren song is done for now, and we only lost one man… That's actually not bad," he leans to Bean with Helena, Bean and even Luci looking at the Ship Master in disbelieved shock slightly as he continued while at the same time steering the helm, "Usually everyone dies," he chuckled briefly, "I don't advertise that fact."
"Merkimer may be gone, but at least he prepaid for the barge," a random male bachelor states as everyone had Glog within their hands, moments later; Helena though had her cup filled with Nogafoggin Brew (Mix of Butterbeer, Cinnamon Whiskey, and hints of coconut water), "To Merkimer!"
"To Merkimer!" As they all took smaller drinks, Bean took larger gulps down to impress Helena while she drank hers down all the way to also impress Bean; from now and their scheme earlier, yet she began to state aloud to everyone then with fake sympathy, "As Merkimer's Fiancée, I'd like to say a few words," she paused yet made Helena held back a snort since she was actually having a blast for once in her life, "Let's head back."
Later on, Helena was concerned as earlier, she used her sight on Mermaid Isle while not hearing yet seeing the disbelief or enraged looks on their faces yet saw they sang to thicken the fog, before they left.
"Where the Helena are we? This fog is as thick as chowder," Luci states as Helena herself rolled her eyes in amusement with Bean facepalming herself at her demon using her Cousin's name as a curse word while the Ship Master decided to state a few things to the demon, since Luci seemed to be inwardly groaning while the Ship Master was steering their ship they were on, still, "Chowder? It doesn't always have to be nautical references with me. There are plenty of other thick soups… Cream of Potato, that's one. Uh… Chili... I guess that's not a soup. Uh… Ham Chowder. No, that's a chowder. Uh... What's the one with the salt? Salt Soup! There you are. Salt Soup. Bah!"
Luci gave Helena a look while placing a hand to her mouth and yet or even before Luci could brag about him winning the bet, Bean came over to them while stating along with pointing out to the foggy distance, "Look, in the distance! The lights of the kingdom!"
"That's no land… It's a Ship of War, flying the dread flag of the Borcs!" The Head Knight of the Zøg Table states with Bean gasping softly to herself; with Helena only being confused at to what "Borcs" were before Bean states to everyone, "They must be planning a sneak attack on Dreamland!" The Head Knight then states to everyone assuredly then while also gazing at the ship before them, "Don't panic. We can slip away unnoticed as long as everyone remains absolutely silent." Helena, however, nudged Bean who noticed whom she was gesturing to as Elfo took out the earwax he still had in his ears, and states loudly in a unsure question; not hearing what they all said, "What?"
Helena saw one of the so-called Borcs move on the ship and looked at their direction and grunts loudly while more showed in that side of the ship, "They've spotted us. Defend the barge or risk losing your deposit." The Ship Master declared to the men while they gasped at that with the Head Knight also raising his fist up, and declaring firmly to them all; said object being moved into place, "Fire the cannon!"
Helena and everyone saw the few men that were on the cannon lit it yet as it it went off… no cannonball came out as instead, were mostly fireworks that stated in capital letters, Mazeltov, in an excited way, "Don't look at that you landlubbers, you didn't pay for it." The Ship Master states with Helena giving him a look of really.
Helena saw; like they did as the leader supposedly grunted loudly, with all the others grabbing maces with chains attached, swirling them all at once, and tossed them right at their ship.
"I'm sorry, guys. We're gonna die and it's all my fault," Bean began to state to Luci, Elfo, and Helena mostly; Bean and them holding hands with Luci shaking his head while he remarked Bean's own words back with his own, "No, it was me with my incessant Do it, do it, do it, do its'. That's what made you do it." Elfo then began to state while looking at the two to blame while the three not seeing Helena narrowed her eyes at the objects coming down, "Neither one of you was to blame… It was both of you. You both killed us" Bean despite knowing that, was stunned the Elf Hybrid would even admit those words in honesty yet the weapons then landed swiftly right into the ship yet everyone was surprised while seeing Helena began sweating rather suddenly from a jade-like barrier protecting everyone as some of the weapons missed their intended targets yet went into the boat, still.
Despite this, Elfo declared while everyone was moving away from specific parts of the ship, aloud, "The barge is falling apart!"
"Aye, 'twas held together mainly by stains…" the Ship Master admits while it was slowly yet surely indeed falling apart as the enemy then began shooting their cannons at the ship now; with Helena shoving Bean and the Ship Master away from the helm when a stray cannonball nearly hit them yet winced while being surprised like they were as it did hit her stomach area yet like a cartoon; to stun the enemy, before it quickly was sent back and hit a random male on their ship, the Ship Master declared to mostly himself while holding the ship railing, "All the confetti cannons in the world couldn't save us now."
Helena suddenly perked up with Luci looking at the teen as if, stunned from them all hearing those walruses/manatees sing now while showing that Prince Merkimer was alive yet looked ragged, and retrieved his blade from his side also while pointing it at the enemy ship, "Mermaids, attack!"
The manatees then began to do as such; making the enemy run with grunts or yelling as within moments, the ship was in ruins while the Prince of Bentwood was riding one of the creatures; hacking and slashing at the remaining enemy while they all stood and watched; Helena behind Bean as she oddly felt like knocking that Prince off his high horse, for some odd reason, since he was showing off while looking like Bean was to Luci at his words, "Didn't you always want a husband that screwed thirty walruses?"
"Yeah. Yeah, I did," Bean sarcastically states before making Luci yelp as she then kicked him while looking depressed now, and Helena merely patted her Cousin's back with equal sympathy as that Prince was more of a pig then Draco Malfoy.
Later on while Helena was seeing to Bean and her girls, adopted sister, and her daughter for the wedding, the Prince with the three knights that went came into the room; with Prince Merkimer carrying a bloody burlap sack in his hands in arrogant pride to the Throne Room, "King Zøg, you're giving me your daughter, so it's only fair I give you something of equal value… The head of the Borc Admiral!"
Once Queen Oona, Odval, and King Zøg saw who's head it was, he then states to the Prince then while gesturing to it; his blade in his other hand with the sharp point right on the ground as Odval was on his right, "That's not a Borc, it's a Bozak! They're our closest allies!" Odval then commented to the King while he merely nodded in mute agreement, "The Bozak wedding delegation never arrived… No wonder all those presents have been washing ashore."
"Then let this be a warning to your other allies," Prince Merkimer states while getting a stick and plunging it under the Blood part of where the Bozak's neck used to be on the center of the head, and showed it as one of the King's other decapitated heads he done for the kingdom.
Once he left, King Zøg sighed while he held his hand to his head and gestures for a guard to do as stated by the Prince.
Helena was with Bean, Luci, and Elfo while silently agreeing with her as this so-called alliance was a shame, and like Bean, she agreed to what her values were as they spoke about it on the boat to each other; with Helena eventually talking to Bean about some (Not all) as to what she went with her so-called family before she left to live on her own for a brief time.
Luci was on Bean's right while Elfo was on the other side within her chambers, on the inside balcony to her escape window; what Vean dubs it, and Helena was leaning against the wall while having her arms crossed under her large bust; with her wearing her Main Outfit while Bean wore her stitched-up wedding dress.
"This is the dress my Mom wore when she married my Dad," Bean began while she cried slightly to herself at this with Elfo secretly doing so, while Bean moved said dress to prove a point as they saw to what Helena knew was her Blood Aunt and her Uncle; the King of Dreamland back then as her Aunt indeed showed to be wearing said dress. "I thought when it was my turn to wear it, I'd be as happy as she was. Somehow, I don't think my portrait's gonna be nearly as happy."
They turned to the artist that was painting the picture between Bean and the Prince of Bentwood; with him being truthful about his painting before he stated to the Princess of Dreamland, "If you no like, I fix?"
"No, no, that's okay, Giuseppe. We hired you for your emotional realism," Bean sighed while they all looked at Helena then as she made them surprised by her words yet were secretly stunned as her fingers briefly went to claws and back from her right hand shaking; in mute anger and sadness at seeing Bean like this, "This isn't right Bean… Couldn't you just, I don't know… Tell Uncle Zøg that your just not at all ready to be married as like I told you before: I hardly know politics yet this feels just… Just feels wrong."
"Hel… It isn't that simple as once Dad has his mind set, its set in stone," Bean admits sadly to mostly herself with Helena sighing softly at this yet they saw her hand shake again as the claws returned and stayed, "But it seems you do need help though…" Luci decided to state to the Potter Heiress who looked at her reptilian-like hand as her skin was beginning to be more pronounced as hide, and while closing her eyes alongside breathing a few time deeply, returned to normal, "I know… My test results did say I need to be taught by my abilities since in truth; Without even telling my Mates and sister, it's… It's getting hard to control some odd urges I had as secretly once I saw that Prince…" concerned about her Cousin as she seemed to began to cry to herself while she was looking away from them yet understood, "I… I felt the urge to slice or even kill him in ways that would make me like them."
Before Bean could get up and comfort her, they jumped briefly as her room's door was knocked with Bean then reluctantly moving herself back while sighing to them, "It's time… Well, free will was fun while it lasted. Just doing the stuff I wanted to do, going places I wanted to go. That time I stole a baby walrus, you guys were there," Bean states to them with mixed emotions, "So, anyway, here comes the bride." Elfo hugged her before she left; oddly touched yet sighed while the three watched as she sadly left.
"I can't bear to watch… I'll be in my cage," Elfo states as he quickly took off with Luci looking at him before he saw Helena was getting ready to leave yet only gave each other a look of later, and left: Helena heading to the Church, and Luci after Elfo.
Bean was walking with King Zøg in the aisle of the church in which was packed once again, but this time Helena, her two Soulmate's; Daphne and Kisara that wore perfect gowns, and Hermione that held Delphi on her lap, merely waited while she; Helena, wondered where was her Cousin's Demon.
With Luci and Elfo…
Luci was on a stool near Wlfo as he was indeed in his modified cage for him to walk, and sighed to himself before they turned to see the Prince of Bentwood show up from Sorcerio's Study, "Anyone seen Sorcerio?"
"Ugh. No, he's at a wedding. Your wedding," Elfo states in not only in remembrance to mostly The Elf Hybrid's self, but at the Prince to remind him; with Prince Merkimer looking at him now while quickly recognizing him, "Well, if it isn't my little barge buddy, Elmo."
"Ugh, I told you, my name is Elfo," Elfo states with him groaning at him as if, this was a repeated occurrence, "Elmo was my house. I lived in an elm."
"I'm feeling a tad nervous, my tiny friend," the Prince of Bentwood admits while moving over to the table that held the open vial of blood on it, "Those Mermaids worked me over pretty hard, sexually. I may not be able to perform tonight on the marital mattress." Elfo, however, grunts briefly while placing his hands at his ears while setting to him, "Stop talking to me."
"I mean, I'm drained," Prince Merkimer states while ignoring Elfo's words yet spots the vial itself, "Haha! Here it is." He picks it up then while swishing it briefly; both Elfo and Luci seeing it glow a few times unlike the Prince of Bentwood, "Legend has it that Elf Blood contains the mystical essence of life itself. Perhaps it could perk up my poor, tuckered dong."
"Please stop! There's no place like Elmo. There's no place like Elmo-" "Mind if I have a little sip of you juice?" Prince Merkimer states on question while Elfo seemed to have been on the start of a breakdown while rocking his cage, yet froze at this with him for once having a wicked idea by the royal's words, "Hold up. That's not Elf's Blood, that's Pig's-" "Help yourself! Do it. Do it. Do it!" Luci began to admit to the Prince before Elfo stopped him while telling the Prince to do so… in which he did.
Back with everyone at the church, everyone was anxiously waiting for the Prince to get here as Bean was on the center with the Priestess, her father and stepmother on her left and her soon-to-be incestious in-laws on her right, and King Zøg declares in annoyance, "Enough rigmarole. Bring in the blushing groom."
Derek was carrying a basket of flowers and was tossing said petals down the aisle as the Prince of Bentwood, Elfo and Luci showed with the Prince looking reinvigorated as he began walking down the aisle, "I've never felt such vigor. You're all invited to our marital evening."
Helena though like those that have magic, sensed something was up as he briefly paused as Prince Merkimer states to himself, "Hmm. Feeling a bit- What's happening?" Helena went wide eyed while she looked at both a trying-to-hold-back-at-laughing Elfo and Luci while the Prince of Bentwood then states; while seeing him starting to change into an animal, "Well, this is odd." After he kept going while his outfit fell off, he was changed into… a pig. He casually went up to the altar while ignoring the gasping or shocked looks of everyone, "Hey."
"Really, Dad?" Bean scoffed as she began to tell him off while gesturing at Pig Merkimer, "You're fine with this? You think this arranged marriage will solve your problems? You think that magic will?" Here Bean scoffed at him again while continuing her rant, "You're just thinking about yourself, what you want… You don't care about me. Isn't there a point in everyone's life where they need to, like, go and figure out who they are? Are we standing in that moment right now? Maybe. But I know one thing, and I know it real good, I know it really, really intensely, and that's… I just don't want to marry this pig-" the glass oddly enough broke near The rulers of Bentwood as a naked Prince of Bentwood somehow showed up yet it was revealed to be a basic pig shifted to look like him, "Or that one either."
"Ah, to hell with it. Bean may be crazy, but she's right," King Zøg states after seeing things and also hearing his only child's words from his only child from Queen Dagmar, and gestured to everyone while declaring it aloud, "This whole cursed wedding is canceled…" the crowd gasped at this while he saw Helena looked at him with approval at his decision before he decided to add which she held back laughter along with those that knew her; the crowds gasping angrily at the King then, "And the bar is closed."
"If you're calling off the wedding, I'm calling off the alliance!" The King of Bentwood declared with King Zøg feeling threatened by this states back at him, "Oh, yeah? My knuckles'll make an alliance with your pig-fathering face!" The crowd then began to chant at both kings then as both Kings took off their upper clothing to have fat, bare torsos exposed, "King fight! King fight! King fight!" The two began fighting, "King fight! King fight!"
As the fighting continued down below for the last several minutes within the church, Bean was with her Cousin, Soulmate's, Hermione, and both Elfo and Luci back within her room while holding bottles of wine from the church itself in their hands while Marabelle also agreed to watch Delphi, "Guys, thanks for making my wedding a day I'll always remember. Now let's see how fast we can forget it."
Bean oddly enough held the bouquet still that was rare ivory roses; one of few favorite flowers that both Lily and Helena loved, and tossed it while being amused as Helena caught it with a tint to her cheeks at seeing the looks of both Kisara and Daphne while she came over, and then handed them to Elfo who tinted at the meaning secretly as well, while she grabbed her enchanted flask and switched it back to Firewhiskey, "To us."
"To us!" Everyone shouted as they downed said contents easily while Helena felt her outfit being tugged, and looked as it was Luci who was near her with a quizzical look, "Well, a bet is a bet… Name it Princess," confused like they were at the title, Bean; while not plastered yet, understood, and states to then get them all to look at her; Luci chuckling at mostly their faces by her words, "Well I'm not sure about your timeline but in ours, your considered that while making your adopted sister, and your two girls also Princesses as well, Hel; Even your kid."
I'm a… Princess?" Helena states before she then fainted for once in her life at being surprised.
Well guys, that's it for the introductory chapter of a Crossover to which I hope would go as a success; like my few others known as "Beauty and the Witch Sister", "Zerina's Super Adventure", and a few others.
I hope it was good for you all that read this as it was for me, and maybe leave what you think in the reviews and possibly my other works for what you may want to see, your own feelings about said story, and whatever it is, I won't be affected by it.
Until then, peace out guys until the next chapter!
