Chapter 7: DWMA on Ice Part 2! A Faerie Godmother Comes to Help?

Inside the icy city, Blaire was going around trying to find food since she was working until the ice and snow shown up in Death City.

She was working at Chupacabra the night before and was serving the guests. She noticed that Spirit hadn't come in for his usual drink until the main girl told her that he and Dr. Stein and some of the Crescent Moon class went to Chicago with Harry and Thomas.

"Really? Thomas came back?" she asked with big kitty eyes.

"And Harry, but it looked like they had to leave in a hurry since he only had little of the class he was teaching with him." She answered.

"I see, when Thomas returns, I will greet him with my sexy body in the morning!" she exclaimed and meowed.

As they worked, a really cold chill came over the bar.

"Fuck me it's cold in here!" Blaire said as she noticed some of the liquor starting to freeze over. "That's not normal!"

Then the ice came over the bar and she saw that some of the girls were also freezing into statues.

"Oh no!" she exclaimed and changed into her cat form and ran out and saw the whole town and the school turning into ice along with the people.

"What is going on?" she asked and ran out of the way and into a safe place.

That present day, she was looking around to see if she could find Maka and the gang along with Harry and Thomas but with no luck. She sighed and said, "Where can they be?"

As she looked, she saw something glow and a figure appeared in front of her with red hair with a few gray streaks and in a green gown. Blair was mesmerized by the sight of her and walked over to it and mewed.

The figure noticed her and picked her up and said, "My, my a little kitty! I wonder where you can lead me in this city to my godson?"

"Godson?" Blair asked.

"A talking feline? Not as powerful as Mab's feline, but it will do! Tell me feline, where is the Wizard?"

"You mean Harry Dresden? That is who I'm looking for!" Blair exclaimed.

"Ah, looks like I am not the only one searching for him! I guess I must locate him!" the faerie figure said and went over to a slab of ice and made it glow to reveal the location of Harry and the rest of Crescent Moon and Blood Fang fighting the winter fae outside of Death City. "Hmm, it looks like the Winter Lady gave them a test."

"Mew? What are those things?" Blair asked.

"Minions of my realm which I will and go to my Godson."

Both she and Blair vanished.

Kana took out another fae and slashed again but this time with some knife blades in her heels.

"Whoa, that got to hurt!" Jiro exclaimed.

"Thank Lara, she thought it would be better to have a back up weapon." Kana said.

She watched Baki took out two more fae and he went to his knees and panted from exhaustion that was starting to build.

"Hold on Baki!" Miaka exclaimed.

He nodded.

"How many more of these things do we have to fight anyways?" Aria asked.

Baki saw the other fae being fought by their comrades. Even Ryonosuke had to take up the axe for the recent fights. Maka, Black Star, and Kid managed to take down a group of three fae with their Soul Link and caused most of them to run off.

"Yeah! You better run away!" Soul yelled as Maka panted.

"Come on! Get back here so I can take you out!" Black Star yelled.

"Shut it Blue Hair Star!" Kana exclaimed from behind.

"Come on! These are the best opponents since I had to go up against Mifune!" he exclaimed and laughed out loud.

"Quit it Black Star, can you see I'm tired out?" Maka asked.

"Come to think of it, we are too." Liz said.

"Oh yeah." Patti said.

"At least Stein and Ox are having a better time taking out their enemies." Kid said as they watched them take out more Winter Fae.

"What about Harry?" Kana asked.

They looked over and saw Harry still fighting Slate.

Harry managed to kick him down and yelled, "Give it up Slate, you know I can still kick your ass!"

"Never!" Slate yelled and threw him off and Harry rolled in the snow and hit one of the sign posts that said "Welcome to Death City!"

Slate stomped over and said, "You know, you should've killed me that night back at Arctus Tor but you pissed me off ever since you left me there to keep on being tortured by Mab and Maeve! How would you like it if you were the one as the Winter Knight and betrayed them and have to go through that, you would want to be killed so you would be set free!"

"Maybe he wouldn't!" he heard a familiar voice and went wide eyed and turned to see Harry's Godmother, Leighananshi.

"No! You can't be here!" he yelled.

"Me? How about you since you betrayed the Winter Court?" she asked as she petted Kitty Blair.

Thomas noticed it and asked, "Blair, what the hell are you doing here?"

She was sleeping and purring in Leigha's arms.

"Oh, you know this cat? Don't worry, she's resting comfortably! But for Slate, step down or I will take you down right here and now!" she told him.

"Never! You know how many cycles I went through on that damn tree!" he yelled and charged at her with the sword. "Die!"

Leigha snapped her fingers and a force of wind blew him backwards and hit a scraggly, desert tree and blew an icy wind that caused him to freeze there. He screamed as the ice covered him.

Thomas changed back and helped his half-brother up, who was still seeing stars and shook his head to snap out of it.

"Looks like you were able to hold the former Knight my Godson!"

"Hello Leigha!" he said.

The others managed to defeat the rest of the remaining fae despite Leigha appearing. Lily and Fix noticed her presence.

"Well, well, the Faerie Godmother from winter has appeared." Fix said.

"Hello summer Knight and Lady, nice to see you two out of your realm." Leigha said.

"We were sent with the wizard in order to make sure he had a safe return until what we saw the Winter Queen did to his present threshold." Lily told her in a harsh voice.

"Hey boss, who is this chick?" Ryonosuke asked as he put the pack with some of Harry's stuff back onto his back.

"That's his Faerie Godmother." Chrona answered.

"What? I thought that only existed in stories!" Kyosuke exclaimed and then felt a cold slap hit his face.

"Quiet vampire child for your insolent remark!" Leigha exclaimed.

"Never thought I would see a faerie bitchslap one of the White Court!" Ox exclaimed.

"Okay guys, enough! We have a serious thing at hand and that is how to find the Winter Queen and turn Death City and the DWMA back to normal." Stein said.

"The thing is where to find her." Spirit said.

Harry nodded and looked back to Leigha and asked, "Where is Mab? Last time we checked was when she blocked our signal with Lord Death."

Leigha still petted the sleeping Blair and said, "I can't say unless you or one of your companions makes a favor."

"A favor?" Ox asked.

"I will gehandle this since Mr. Dresden has been teaching us about the supernatural, the Faerie queens along with the many fae in the NeverNever tend to make favors with the humans andtend to make some with members of the White Council and any other being they come across in the supernatural but they tend to come with a price." Miaka explained.

"That is why Harry told you all to never make any favors whenever any of us cross through the NeverNever because he doesn't want you guys to pay a price to a faerie, especially a member of the courts." Aria said.

They were all silent after the explanation until Leigha asked, "So, what's it going to be?"

"No way in hell, I rather not risk any of the students from the DWMA along with the vamps I'm trying to help from the other houses! So leave the cat and get out of here!"

Leigha's eyes blazed and dropped Blair and vanished and her voice rang, "You're making a big mistake my Godson, if you don't find Mab in two suns time, your precious city and school will be doomed to eternal winter!"

"What now? She was our only help!" Jiro exclaimed.

"Not exactly, I can help, I am a lady of one of the courts after all so I can find Maeve and that will lead us to Mab." Lily told them.

"But we need a favor in order to do that." Stein said and looked at Harry.

"Well, my mother made a favor with her and she said it wasn't that bad." Molly told them.

"Well, since that is good to know, who will make the favor?" Kyosuke asked.

They all looked at Stein and Spirit.

"Why us?" Spirit asked.

"Obviously they want us to make the favor since we're so close to Lord Death, in my opinion it should be Kid since he is his son." Stein said as he puffed out some smoke on his cigarette.

"True, usually the power of a family member is higher than a friend's power." Jack said.

They all looked towards Kid and Jiro said, "Well, Mr. Symmetrical, will you do it?"

He nodded and said, "If it means to save my father and all of Death City, I got to do what I need to do."

He got up and went over to Lily and said, "Lady Summer, will you give us the pathway to where Mab is so we can unfreeze this place?"

"Of course Death the Kid! I will lead you and your comrades to where Mab and Maeve are!" she said and bowed.

"Thank you, what favor will I repay you?" he asked.

"You will find out soon enough." She said with a wink.

"Now that's settled, let's get going, but first we should stop by my apartment in the southern part of the campus." Harry said.

"Good idea, this stuff is getting heavy." Maka said.

They headed into the city and then the school where Harry led them to a building that looked like a boarding house that resembled the one in Chicago and they went inside to the basement floor where they found Maeve waiting for them.

"Hello Wizard and company!" she said.

"Maeve…" Harry said.

"I'm guessing you were able to track the boss' apartment with no problem?" Molly asked.

"You can say that, also wanted to warn you." She said.

"Warn us? How can we trust you when you sent your wild fae after us?" Harry asked as he stepped around her and unlocked the apartment where a major chill came out of it since it was shut up for a while especially with the cold in the city now and stepped in, the others followed.

"Oh, Mab wanted me to test your comrades and see how you're able to fair against them like with Totania's Gruffs." She answered.

"Test, right, and yet Lloyd Slate tried to kill me and Leigha came to rescue me which caused me not to trust her help in finding Mab." He told her as he set down the pack on his back along with the others that were being set down on the floor.

Maeve was silent at the sound of Slate and it caused Lily and Fix to shiver at the mentioning of his name since both of them were tormented by him and Maeve back in the past when they were living in the Winter realm of Faerie.

"That wasn't my idea, my mother sent him to provoke you so you can take him out for the mantal." She told him.

"Hell's bells, is she that desperate?" Harry asked.

Mouse whined a bit with a sympathetic tone to it.

Lily managed to break the silence by saying, "Mr. Dresden, be glad you didn't take up Leigha's help, she may have tried and provoke you as well back there and who knows you might be killed if you had and refuse the mantal under her request."

"I guess that is why it was a good idea for me to make the favor." Kid said.

She nodded.

"Well, what is it Harry?" Thomas asked as he put down Blair on one of the second hand couches that they bought from one of the towns in Nevada.

"Find Mab and kick her out of here and make sure that sun laugh again." Harry answered.

His class cheered in approval and high fived each other.

"Maeve, you're coming with us since now you're our prisoner." Harry said with a smile.

"What?" Maeve asked angrily.

Jiro, Baki, and the Ishida twins with Jiro asked, "Since she is our prisoner, I wonder how her feelings taste!"

"I bet it's pretty tasty!" Baki exclaimed with a purr.

"Mhmm!" both Ishidas exclaimed.

"Get off!" she yelled.

Thomas stifled a laugh.

"Well, let's get a move on then!" Harry exclaimed.

They left the apartment and headed back outside where they found Leigha.

"Great, you again." Harry said.

"Why yes Child, I thought you still needed my help!" she said.

"Sorry Leigha, but we already have the help I need and we're going to take out Mab once and for all!" Harry exclaimed.

"Lloyd?" she asked.

He appeared and smiled.

"Hey Spirit, shall we?" Stein asked.

"Wait Stein, shouldn't you be helping us?" Liz asked.

"You guys already have a pair of Deathscythes on your hands, they will be able to take out fae on their own!" Spirit answered and changed into his scythe form.

"What do you mean by that?" Ryonosuke asked.

"You two can figure out the Swiss Army knife moves on your own, just eject the axe blades and you will be fine!" Spirit called out as Stein charged with him.

"What is that supposed to mean?" Kyosuke asked.

"Likk he said, you will figure it out!" Kana exclaimed as she grabbed them and pulled them away.

"Come on!" Harry exclaimed and they started running but Leigha formed a wall around them.

"Damn it!" Kana exclaimed.

"Move aside!" Harry yelled and took out his blasting rod from beneath his duster. "Fuego!"

The ice melted a little and the hole returned back to normal.

"Great! What now?" Maka asked.

"Since you all can't get the idea of staying put and taking up an offer, I guess I will have to put you all down like dogs!" Leigha exclaimed as she sent ice and snow at them as weapons and then fire butterflies appeared and fought back.

They saw it was Lily.

"I will hold her off! Here!" she exclaimed as she sent a few fire butterflies over to them and the others took out the ice wall.

"They will lead the way to where Mab is!" she yelled.

"Are you sure?" Kid asked.

"Yeah, your father should still be on ice with her! Now hurry and go while the ice is still melting!" she answered. "Protect them Fix!"

He nodded and said, "Come on everyone!" he exclaimed.

They left the area and headed back towards the main buildings of the DWMA where Mab was watching them on the slab of ice in Lord Death's office.

"Come and get me Wizard!" she exclaimed as sshe petted her big kitty.
