A/N I AM SOOO SORRY FOR NOT UPDATING! AS I SAID IN THE FIRST CHAPTER I AM BAD AT CONTINUE AT THIS KIND OF STUFF. SO FORGIVE ME!
And thank you for the reviews I've got! I hope you'll enjoy this chapter.
I entered my house and immediately ran to my room. What should I pack?! I don't know a thing about how to dress for a magic school, or what's the dress code in Sweden. Everything is going to be a disaster if I turn out to look different from all the others.
But if I'm from America, there should be other students who's not from Sweden. Maybe it's not only me, Milton and Jack who's from US, there should be more right? If I'm going to be there for a month then I'll just pack all the clothes I can put in three bags. Maybe a little bit to much, eh, who am I kidding? It's not to much for me. I also packed my gi and my own nunchucks 'cause I don't want to miss any training. It took lots of time, but I think I finally packed everything. Now's the question: how am I supposed to get all this to the mall? I'll just ask Jack.
(With Jack)
He packed all the things he needed, not so much packing actually since he knew he would have to carry Kim's stuff. When he was done he heard his mother call."What is it?" He yelled back."Can you come down for a moment?" She answered. He zipped his bag shut and walked out of the room to the kitchen."Can you tell me why you are packing? You're not going to run away are you?" She was just being sarcastic but you could tell she was worried."No mom, look, it's like this." He came closer to her."A woman came by the dojo and told us about, um, I have you know these special abilities." His mother lit up in a giant smile and it made him stop talking."Oh, my little boy is ready for his powers!" She swallowed him in a hug."I'm so proud!"
"Um, mom! You can let go." She released him and then her smile fell."So you're packing? When do you leave?" This made him feel a bit guilty."I'm leaving this afternoon." He waited for a response that never came."I'm just going to be away for a month." He added. Her smile appeared again but a bit weaker."Well then, do you have everything?" He nodded."What time?" She continued."Six o'clock." He answered and she looked at the clock."Well, you have to leave soon. Kim probably want your help with her luggage, you can go give her a hand." She sobbed and he gave her a big hug."I love you mom!" He said then released her."I love you too." She responded and he went to his room to get his suitcase.
On the way out he noticed a little locket that laid on his drawer. The little thing reminded him of his father. He had told Jack that it is special, just like him. Right now it created lots of thoughts, did it mean that it also had powers? Or that it's magical too? Maybe he'll find out if he could open it, which he couldn't. His dad past away a few years ago, the day after Jack received the locket. If the locket is that kind of special that he's thinking of then he should probably bring it with him. He slipped the locket down his pocket and walked to the exit.
His mom, who was already standing by the door gave him his last hug."I'm gonna miss you Jackie!" He smiled at her."I'm gonna miss you too mom." Then he grabbed the doorknob and opened the door."Bye." He said and kissed her on cheek."Good luck." She responded and he left his home. He walked straight to Kim's house and knocked on the door.
(Back to Kim's POV)
I opened almost immediately screaming:"Hurry! I have to get all my bags to the mall in ten minutes!" and dragged him over to my room."Kim slow down, we have time!" He reassured me, but I knew that I didn't have the time to argue with him so I kept silent. I grabbed two of my bags and gave them to him while he just fell to the floor by the weight."Sorry!" I apologized."Why do you have so much stuff?" he asked while getting back up on his feet."Because, I don't know what to bring!" I answered quickly and grabbed the last bag. He struggled with all the other suitcases but quickly got the hang of it.
"Wait, I get three bags, and you take one?" He questioned."Well, that's because... uh... you like... uh... I... I'm a girl!" I finally yelled at him and his face looked hurt. I don't usually yell at him for no reason, or at all. *sing-songvoice* IN DENIAL!. Oh shut up inner voice, maybe a few times."I'm sorry, ok, I'll take two and you take two." He smiled at me and gave me one of my bags he was holding.
We walked all the way to the mall, good thing it was a cloudy day 'cause it was HEAVY! I swear if we weren't in a public place, I would've collapsed right there on the ground."Hello!" Minnie greeted as she spotted us."Well, hello... to... you too." I said between deep breaths."I guess your trip didn't go too well?" She asked as a little smirk appeared on her face."Not... funny!" I raised my voice."Sorry, you just look like an old married couple carrying around those suitcases." She laughed again but neither me or Jack said anything. I didn't want to admit that I wish it was true, why he was quiet was a mystery.
"Anyway, have you seen Milton?" She asked, but we shook our heads. Right then a thin figure came running our way with a suitcase playing a little melody. I heard Jack chuckling beside me, I giggled a bit when I thought about how cute he laughed."What's that?" I asked pointing at his hippo-bag when Milton finally stood in front of us."Well, my sister is away for a camping trip, so, this was the only bag I could find." He said sadly. Jack exploded in even more laughter as the hippo said: 'I love you!' after the melody. Milton hit him in the shoulder, but since Jack didn't even react I guess it wasn't that hard.
"Now that everybody's here, are you ready to leave?" She asked when Jack's laughter finally stopped. We were about to answer when we heard a shout."WAIT!" It sounded like Jerry, and so it was. Jerry and Eddie came running towards us. Well, Jerry did, Eddie was just walking really fast."What?" I asked when they stopped in front of us.
"We want to say good bye of course." Jerry answered in a duh-voice. It didn't take long enough for Jerry to catch me in a hug just after that."Good bye Kim!" He dropped me and the next thing I knew he was hugging Milton too.
"Good bye Milton!" He said then released him. When he was about to hug Jack, he stepped away."Um, no thanks. Bro hugs aren't my style." Jack said and put his hand in front of him."Aw, c'mon Jack, just a little hug, no biggy?" Jerry approached him again but that was a big mistake. Jack kicked him in the stomach which made him stumble backwards against an old lady. The lady hit him with her purse in the head and he tripped over a skateboard. A little boy came running over to him, taking the skateboard then we began laughing like idiots. I'll admit, it looked really funny.
"Stop laughing!" He screamed at us but no one stopped. After a while we all did as he told us and Eddie said good bye to everyone as well.
"Bye guys, we'll miss you. And no Eddie, I'm not going to buy you any Swedish meatballs!" Jack said looking at Eddie the most."I didn't say anything!" Eddie defended himself. There it is, Jack's a mind reader.
"Now, are we ready to go?" Minnie asked. All three of us nodded and before I knew it, we were standing on the parking lot behind the dojo looking at a strange vehicle."Hop in!" She said happily walking over to the door, none of us moved. When she saw that she said:"Relax, it's just a congle, it's not dangerous at all. In fact, it was considered the safest magical vehicle of this year. Now go on, enter." She motioned for us to come over to the door and as the bravest of all of us, Jack walked up first followed by me and Milton.
The seats were very close to each other and very small so I had to sit pressed to Jack all the way. Milton was in the front with Minnie. Nothing happened in a while and I wondered what was wrong."Ah! Here it is!" Minnie suddenly exclaimed and she held up a little badge. She put the badge on a glowing platform coming out of the control table. The vehicle moved a little and when I looked outside the window we were flying. I quickly grabbed onto Jack's hand in fright. He didn't seem to have anything against it, or he just didn't notice it. Oh, stop dreaming! Of course he didn't notice it, why would he want to hold your hand? Great, now I'm talking to myself. Or more thinking to myself.
Then I figured we were actually flying and screamed for the first time in front of Jack. He looked at me with a look I didn't recognize, but it was somehow warming. I just knew that he wouldn't mind if I searched for safeness with him. So just for the moment I cuddled closer to him, not much, just leaned on him and he put his arm around me. I felt that his heartbeat raced, whether it was because we were high up in the air or because we were kinda cuddling is something I couldn't figure out. It was nice, like we were meant to be like this.
But then I just temporarily hated Milton because of this:"Oh, look at the two lovebirds! This is going on my facebook page!" He picked up his phone and took a picture. We reacted at the same time and reached for it. Unfortunately we were in sync so we hit our heads together. The picture didn't turn out so good though, due to our reaction, so he didn't purchase it. That was a relief, what if the others saw it and then spread a lot of rumors around and then, at the time we'll be back, everyone is going to think we're together. What a mess that would be! I'm glad it won't happen.
After a while(it felt like just 15 minutes 'cause a fell asleep) we landed in the middle of a forest. I thought it was strange, where's the village? Everything was just trees, no sign of a human being anywhere."Where's the magical town that you talked about?", Jack asked as if he read my mind, no wait, did read my mind when I think about it.
"You'll just wait and see", Minnie answered with a mischievous smile on her face."It's okay to exit the congle now, we're safe on the ground now." Everyone stepped outside the weird vehicle and looked around for some clues of where we were. I can assure you that we were not in Seaford, there were only fir trees around us, maybe some little leaf tree, but not more. I've never been in this kinda nature, it was beautiful, and to think that it was so warm compared to the surroundings.
"Well, are you gonna follow?" Minnie asked. We kept us behind her back while she led the way through the forest."Are we there yet?" Milton complained."You sound like a five year old", I said tiring, I had just woken up after all.
"Actually, just there", she answered referring to two birch trees that created a arch, which led to nothing."What do you mean?" Jack asked confused, she answered with a demonstration. She picked up her wand and then whispered three little words that I couldn't hear. A passage the trees that were beautifully framed within the arch disappeared and replaced with a wooden door covered in gold.
"Looks a bit too expensive", Milton complained, again. "It was built a long time ago, when the first wizards came here to create a town. At that time, the only metal spell they had created was for gold, the iron wasn't created 'til 200 years later, before humans even knew it existed", she answered though it wasn't really a question. "Well, shall we proceed?" we all looked at each other, before nodding. She motioned for us to enter first, which we did with Jack first as always.
A/N Once again, I'm really sorry for not updating. But this whole part of the story wasn't really pictured in my head, so it all went really slow for me to make up. I'm happy that I've still got people reading this story, even though I'm not the best at making the time to write. Anyways, thank you for favoriting and reviewing, I really appreciate it.
Love, Mimmi.
