Chapter 29 No Rest for the Wicked! Another Trip Through the NeverNever?

Vitorio Malvora walked down the halls of Chateau Malvora in CChicago and reached Lady Malvora's chamber. He found her feeding off of her newest victim, who was being frightened and having their fear eaten away by her.

"Ah Vitorio, you finally arrived, did your trip back give you any trouble?" she asked with her silver eyes flashing.

"No, not at all, just happy that we succeeded in getting three of Dresden's vampires to our side." Vitorio said.

"Even if it isn't the Ishida brothers? You know Madrigal worked so hard in getting them to feed off fear and almost succeeded until the feed for fear was broken by his apprentice." She said.

"Oh I remember, this seems better because Baki's power is pretty strong and his gauntlets can take on hand-to-hand combat against the DWMA brats, especially back at Club Zero." Vitorio Malvora told her.

She purred, "Oh really, maybe they can kill the Asgard traitors!"

"Of course, even toss them into the Deeps so Ms. Guard won't find their dead bodies." Vitorio said.

"Then it's a coup we are going for?" Lady Malvora asked.

"You got it." Vitorio said. "And the Ishida Twins won't escape this time along with the White Court bastards."

At the DWMA, a three days have passed since the Nightmare Weaver's attack on the school. Everyone that was hit by the nightmare spell went into a long rest during that time to get their lost hours of z's back, especially the Ishida Brothers and Maka since they got hit by the worst of it and the Black Blood was unlocked inside of the brothers that their feed for Lust and rest was what the doctor ordered for them, even though Harry prescribed it.

"Three days, never thought they would sleep for that long." Ramirez said as he polished his sword.

"They were all hit by a huge spell, they deserve it." Harry said as he drank the coffee that Thomas got from Deathbucks.

"Especially with the Black Blood being unlocked, those two brothers had their energy seeped out of them." Luccio said.

"Like you wouldn't believe." Harry said.

"What's gotten into you?" Ramirez asked.

"It's the whole sending powerful wizards with Kishin souls to kill my class! Vitorio is trying to get the brothers back like Madrigal did and who knows what he's been doing since we took out his most powerful hitman!" Harry answered.

"Maybe sending these?" Thomas asked as he held up an envelope with the Wraithe crest on it.

"What do you mean?" Harry asked.

"Your question has been answered, it looks like the families are calling everyone to the Deeps back in Chicago and seeing this is making me rethink going." Thomas said.

"Wait, you're going?" Inari asked.

"Yeah, who knows what dad has in store for my ears since I left with Harry months ago to find our young vamps." Thomas answered.

"So Daddy Wraithe is inviting all the vamps for one little party, does that mean Vitorio will make an appearance?" Harry asked.

"The Malvora and Scavus will be there." Thomas answered.

"Goody, would love to kick his ass for all the damage he's done!" Harry exclaimed.

"Same with us." Ramirez said.

"I am guessing a party crash?" Thomas asked.

"You got it! Make sure Bolt Head and his team of stars are raring to head back to Chicago." Harry said.

"You got it!" Inari said and headed out.

Inari told Black Star, Tsubaki, Kid, Soul, and Harvard what was going to happen and Soul went to his dorm to where Maka was deep asleep.

"Maka! Hey Maka!" he exclaimed.

"Mmm, Soul, quit burning the food! I will cook it!" she said in her sleep.

"Blair's been showing her naked body off again!" Soul exclaimed.

"What?" she asked and woke up. "Where is that witch? I told her to keep her clothes on unless she is going to bathe in the bathroom!" Maka yelled as she held a humongous book in her hands.

"Calm down, I was only kidding and came to tell you that we're heading back to Chicago." Soul told her.

"What? Why?"

He explained what Inari had said about the big meeting with the White courts and that Vitorio will be there.

"Good! What he's been doing to everyone is horrible, especially with that Nightmare guy!" Maka said.

"At least I got his soul this time." Soul said as he licked his lips with a satisfied slurp.

"Well, I want you to eat Vitorio's as well, or even Tsubaki if she wants it." She said.

"What about Harvard? He and Ox are involved in our business with the White Courts as well." Soul reminded her.

"I never get why he wants to unless he wants to be fed on himself." She said and lied back on her bed.

"Yeah, beets me as well. Just rest up more and we will be meeting up with everyone else for our trip through the NeverNever." Soul said.

"Night." She said and went back to sleep.

Over at the Deathscythe headquarters, Jiro, Kana, and the Asgard brothers were in the living room area with Kana and Jiro explaining to Thor and Loki about what will be happening after Inari telling them about the invites.

"So, we will be infiltrating the lair of your kind? Interesting." Loki said.

"Now, who's going to tell the two snoring saws in the next rooms?" Jiro asked.

"You mean axes?" Kana asked.

"More like saws, I can't sleep when Ryonosuke is snoring like a saw through a timber yard." Loki said.

"I hate how I feel Kyosuke's spikes from his elbows poke into me out of randomness." Thor said.

"Awww, the Asgard brothers are turning human, isn't that cute?" Kana asked.

"Shut it!" the both of them exclaimed.

"I will go, I faced them being cranky before when Harry had them train for their fight against the witches once." Jiro said as he went into Kyosuke's room first.

"What happened?" Loki asked.

"They were so muddy, even their boxers had to be deeped clean." Kana answered.

A moment later they heard cursing from Kyosuke's room and Ryonosuke came out with axe blades coming out of his arms wearing nothing but his boxers.

"Okay, who broke in?" Ryonosuke asked.

Jiro ran out laughing as Kyosuke chased out with his hands in axe form in his boxers yelling, "I am going to fucking kill you! You know I hate it when you make out with me!"

"Come on now, it's our nature as White Courts to kiss each other!" Jiro exclaimed.

"Get back here!" Kyosuke yelled as he chased him out of the door running across the lawn.

"Damn, after a three days' sleep, he can be energized." Ryonosuke said and turned to see the laughing Kana. "I did it again didn't I?"

"Except you aren't being piggy backed by your brother." Thor said.

Ryonosuke went to grab his pants and came back and listened to what Kana had to say about what Inari told her and Jiro earlier while he was munching on cereal.

"Wait, you're saying Harry wants to go in with Thomas and Inari blazing to get Vitorio?" Ryonosuke asked.

"Yeah." Kana said.

"Count me in! He has Baki and the Samamuras and he needs to hand them back." Ryonosuke said.

"I don't think that will be easy, you know their feed of fear already took over, right?" Kana asked.

"Yeah, but they have been with us ever since what Madrigal did to me and my brother and it's time for us to help them out." Ryonosuke said.

Kana nodded.

Jiro came back with a knocked out Kyosuke. He told him they passed by where Lord Death was talking to Kid and Reaper Chopped Kyosuke for running with his boxers on and Kid asked about how he got his boxers to stay symmetrical.

Ryonosuke and Kana sighed.

"Man, for being a twin, he can be an idiot." Loki observed.

"You're telling me." Ryonosuke said.

They made their final plans in order to meet up with everyone else for the trip to Chicago.

Back in Chicago at the Malvora Estate, the Samamuras and Baki were feeding on their latest victims for their fear. When they were done, the three bodies were carried off.

Vitorio walked in applauding.

"Vitorio, came in to give us a taste of your fear?" Aria asked.

"No, just came to tell you that the wizard, Dresden, and his comrades will be here." He answered.

"Perfect, we get to fight our old friends." Baki said as his eyes went back to normal.

"And hoping the plan for the Ishidas to come into the Madness that the Black Blood has bestowed them." Vitorio said with a smirk.

"And kill Kana and Jiro?" Aria asked.

"You can do whatever you want, I will make sure I get to fight Wizard Dresden and the plan come together, just count on me." Vitorio said with a smirk.

Later on in the Deeps, Vitorio looked over the area and then took out the bottle that kept some of the Madness within.

"Well Lady Medusa, you came through after all! Not only I will get the Ishidas but you might get your son back as well." Vitorio said and placed it back into his pocket and looked around. "Unless they become victims of the bottomless chasm like those our many, dead victims."

Back at the DWMA, everyone in Crescent Moon and Blood Fang met up with Harry, Luccio, and Ramirez for their trip to Chicago. Leighananci met up with them to safely guide them.

"So Godmother, will this be another trip through Totania's court or somewhere else." Harry asked.

"You already know every part of Fairy has random parts leading to different parts of the world, who knows where you go through in order to get back to your old home." Leigha said.

"She does have a point." Kana said.

"I am guessing we will be in Lara's place?" Thomas asked.

"Planning on it." Harry said and nodded to Leigha.

She clapped her hands and they were transported into a garden.

"Whoa, this place is massive." Zoey said.

"What is this place?" Derek asked.

"My garden, come with me unless you want to face…" Leigha answered as they started walking but a roar interrupted and they saw a huge centipede. Everyone screamed from the sight of it.

"What should we do?" Liz asked.

"Quick weapon forms guys!" Kana exclaimed.

All the weapons changed and they all started fighting. Even Luccio and Ramirez joined in with their spells.

Harry managed to freeze it with his Winter Knight powers and the weapon meister pairs were able to take it out with their Soul Resonance and it went down.

"You don't see that everyday in the NeverNever!" Harry said.

They heard someone clapping and saw Maeve with Lily.

"Lily! Maeve! What are you two doing here?" Molly asked.

"We detected some ice, well me, and decided to see what was going on." Maeve answered.

"I didn't invite you here Lady Winter and Lady Summer." Leigha growled.

"Aw, never thought a servant of Winter would snap at one of the queens, maybe I should lock you in ice Leigha!" Maeve said.

"Maeve! Stop it! We have important things to do in Chicago, we need to get going!" Harry exclaimed.

"Like killing someone Knight of Winter?" Lily asked.

"Lily…" Harry said.

"Winter Knight?" Ramirez asked.

"You?" Luccio asked.

"Yeah, you heard right! Your precious little Warden is now my mother's vassal of the Winter Court! Isn't that precious?" Maeve exclaimed.

"You didn't tell us." Ramirez said.

"I was but it wasn't the right time." Harry said.

"Like now, who knows how much time passes between here and the human world!" Kyosuke exclaimed.

"Look, we need to get to the Wraithe Chateau and make sure Vitorio…"

"Harry!" they heard.

They turned and saw Fix coming up to them.

"I knew Fix was going to find you." Lily said.

"Hell's Bells! Is everyone going to come after me since I am Mab's pet dog now? She tried freezing a school!" Harry exclaimed as he dodged Fix who was trying to swing at him with a sword in hand.

"Oh brother!" everyone else said.

"I told you I would come after you if you took up the mantel!"

"Yeah, I know, but there is no time now! We need to head somewhere and now!"

"How can you tell the truth?"

"We are heading there right now numbnuts!" Kyosuke yelled and kicked Fix down. "Be glad I didn't use my rusted iron chains!"

Harry explained everything to Luccio, Ramirez, Fix and Lily about how became the Winter Knight in the first place and all the events that happened afterwards.

"Oh, so you saved the school for Lord Death?" Lily asked.

"Yep, it was that or Death City was going to be a popsicle in the middle of the desert." Harry said.

"Sorry for the fight, so this Vitorio guy is the one pulling all the strings since his cousins were dead." Fix said.

"More like cousin, Madeline didn't get much love." Thomas answered.

"What should we do?" Lily asked. "now that we know what you are going to do."

"Hmm, I think I have an idea! Do you know if Winter or Summer borders the Deeps?" Harry asked.

"Not sure, but I think our borders go into that part of Chicago." Maeve answered. "Why?"

"I think I need you two on standby in case we need Fairy Queen help, Fix you will help Lily while I take out Vitorio in the mortal world and if we cross over, you help out." Harry said.

"Got it!" Fix exclaimed.

"Now that's settled, let's get a move on, who knows what else Vitorio is doing right now and we need to get there before the family reunion happens." Harry said.

"Right!" they all exclaimed.

Leigha led the way and they managed to exit the NeverNever on the grounds of the Wraithe Chateau.

"Home Sweet Home!" Thomas exclaimed.

"Yeah." Inari said.

"Here goes." Hary said.

They headed to the front door and knocked and were let in.
