Hey guysss! I have finally returned since it's a three- day break for me (not spring break yet). Has anyone watched Captain Marvel?! UGHH IT'S SO GOOD! Makes me wanna write a Marvel fanfic before Endgame comes out.
So, here's an update on my life. I've been pretty occupied by school, especially the AP classes. I've got accepted into the Nursing Scholars Program! WHOOP WHOOP. It was so competitive and only twenty kids are accepted. Thank goodness, I thought I would never get in.
And let's get this chapter started!
Bianca's POV
We exited the Gray Sister's cab with dizziness and headed our way to register our belongings.
"I smell something..." Saffron sniffed as we stepped into the atrium.
"Yeah, the hot dogs over there," I pointed out at the hot dog stand. I caught a male employee glance at me, then focus back to grilling his hot dogs.
"No, not that, Bianca." He shook his head, massaging his temples."Well, it does smell tasty, but forget about that. It smells like monsters have infiltrated this place. Like everywhere around us."
We continued walking over to the security checkpoints.
"Well, we should quickly go to the gates then and pass this area. Hopefully, the scent will be gone," I whispered.
As we reached the security checkpoints, I had given the TSA man my passport and ticket. He slowly looked at me up and down, then finally passed me. Our carry-ons and ourselves successfully passed through the screenings.
"How about now?" I asked as we exited the security checkpoints.
He was rubbing his temples more."The smell is getting stronger. I don't have a good feeling about this, Bianca."
There were a lot of people staring at our way from every corner- a man from the gift shop, a security man, a man from a restaurant, and the male flight crew.
"I agree," I whispered. I bit my lip.
I did notice what they all had in common. They were all males.
We arrived at our gate and checked our seats at the counter. The staffs were all male as well. Well, there were a few females, but most were predominantly males, too many males.
"I don't feel too good," Saffron mumbled next to me.
"Yep, you said that a bunch of times alright," I nudged him to shut up.
When it was time to board our plane, we lined up with the rest of the passengers to check our boarding passes.
"Here, you go!" The male staff exclaimed, handing Saffron and me our passports and tickets back.
Quickly, I retrieved them."Thanks."
After walking down the hallway that led to our plane, we encountered a male flight attendant, who greeted us, as we climbed into the aircraft. I led Saffron to our secluded seat area where there weren't that many people around yet.
"The monsters are disguised as people," Saffron told, looking around.
I nodded."Primarily males. They're watching us."
Saffron's POV
Bianca chose to sit by the window, while I sat on the edge.
"You okay, Saffron?" Bianca asked, stuffing her carry-on bag below her seat.
"It's just a very bad stench," I replied, standing up to check my carry-on in the overhead bins.
"Should we leave then?" She whispered."And come back another time? We have plenty of time before they depart."
Before I respond, the plane has already zoomed off without any warnings. I was thrown violently into my seat. Bianca and I looked at each other.
There was definitely something wrong with this plane.
Immediately, we fastened our seatbelts and clutched the armrest of our seats. It was strange that the flight crew didn't go through their daily procedures of safety. We noticed that there weren't any screams from anybody besides us. They behaved very normally and calm.
Odd...
Soon, we were up in the air. The plane dinged, and everyone was allowed to not wear their seatbelts.
Bianca's hair was a mess, and she looked exhausted from the rush.
"My ears are popping," she complained, covering her ears.
I was scanning the cabin we were in. Everyone was glancing at us. Most of the passengers were males; there were a few females and children though. I needed my rapier, but it was in my bag.
"Everyone is looking at us," I mumbled to her.
She nodded, trying to behave normally. She threw off her gloves, laying them on her seat. She ran her fingers through her hair, close to her hair clip.
"I don't think we'll ever travel by airplane ever again," she grumbled.
I casually got up, opening the stowage bins for my bag. I unzipped a pocket, searching for my rapier. I felt the sharp cold blade as I patted for it. Bianca and I locked eyes as we gripped onto our weapons.
"You know," Bianca loudly began, touching her clip."You guys messed with the wrong people..."
We both pulled out our weapons. At the same time, most of the passengers morphed into boys with smoky wings. Their electrifying eyes stood out the most. Some of the passengers transformed into horses. The horses had dark storm cloud bodies, and electricity danced on their manes.
My eyes widened."Bloody hell..." I gasped.
"You can say that again," Bianca muttered."What are these, Saffron?"
"Storm spirits. Also known as Venti," I replied."Oh, by the way," I turned to her, "you owe me three galleons."
She rolled her eyes."Got it..." She jumped over seats, charging at the boys.
I aimed for the horses.
Bianca's POV
The furniture in the airplane was basically in ruins. Most of them were black and burnt and ripped up due to the storm spirit's electricity.
"Leave us alone!" I screamed, slashing at a boy.
Some of them stopped for a minute. Saffron's eyes met mine.
"Charmspeak! You can charmspeak them," he reminded, thrusting his sword into a horse.
Oh yeah, I forgot about that.
"Go jump off the plane, you stupidos!" I roared.
Everyone halted, then marched towards the emergency exit. I watched a boy easily open the exit, allowing gushes of wind to enter the cabin. They were all being sucked out of the plane. I watched the "pilot" also head out as well.
No! Who's gonna control this aircraft!
Out of the corner of my eyes, I caught Saffron walking out as well. My eyes widened.
Ah! Not him!
"Saffron! Hold up!" I yelled.
He was almost out of the plane. Both of his hands were holding against the sides of the wall to prevent him from falling into the sky.
I ran for our carry-ons, keeping my eyes onto Saffron. The boys behind him were trying to go through him. "Everyone! Stop!" I commanded, terrified that Saffron would fall out. I slung the carry-ons over my shoulders and tucked my gloves into my bag.
Suddenly, the airplane began to shake violently.
Turbulence!
The plane was dipping to the left."Someone take over the pilot seat! And get us to safety!" I screamed, leaning against the wall for support."SAFFRON! GET OVER HERE!" I cried. I watched him push through the crowd of boys.
Please...
The plane was spinning, and I was being thrown in every direction. My ribs were being jabbed by the seats. Thankfully, they weren't hard or sharp though. I clutched onto an arm rest and looked back at the boys. The storm spirits were being thrown out of the plane through the opening. Soon, Saffron, who was unable to reach me, followed them out the plane. I felt my heart drop as I watched Saffron disappear from my eyes. Immediately, I released my grip on the seat and ran for the opened emergency exit. I jumped out of the plane, diving through the clouds. I spun my body, looking back at the airplane. I shot my hands out at the plane, creating an ice blockage of where the emergency door was. I turned my body back to the earth. My eyes searched for Saffron among the plummeting storm spirits. I could recognize the blue ocean beneath me.
Where was he...
There he was, flailing his arms around. It was a bit funny, but this was a serious matter. I tore the carry-ons off of me, so I could descend faster. The wind whistled in my ears and slapped me in the face. I squinted against the air resistance. My hands reached for the familiar furry satyr.
Come on...
I watched as my cold mist wrap around him.
"B-Bianca!" He cried before slipping into unconsciousness.
Almost...
"ARRESTO MOMENTUM!" I heard a familiar male's voice.
I grew stiff as I slowly descend through the clouds.
"Professor," I heard a familiar voice.
"Here, drink this," I heard a nasal voice.
It sounded as if the voices were in a different part of the room.
My eyes fluttered open to a dark plain room. Then, I realized. I should be falling in the sky. Immediately, I sat up and began to breathe heavily.
"A-are you sure you want me to drink this?" The voice asked.
Saffron?
I looked around the room to find a desk, a chair, a wardrobe, and more normal furniture. I noticed Nico's empty cage in the corner of the room. Beside the bed that I slept in was a desk table that held my hair clip and my bag. I was still in the same clothes as I was when I was on the airplane.
I thought I lost everything when I fell...
"A Vitamix Potion," the nasal voice replied.
"Um, it's alright, professor. I've got my ambrosia and nectar."
"The Headmaster will be here in any moment," the nasal voice said."He requested me for you and the girl to take this. He wouldn't want your system to be filled with recyclables, satyr."
Headmaster?
I slipped out of the bed and grabbed my hair clip, fastening it to my hair. After I took out my wand from my bag and tucked it in my pocket, I exited the room to search for Saffron and the other voice. The voices continued down the hallway. It seemed like it was coming from the dining room.
"Bianca?" I heard Saffron's voice.
I entered the dining room to find Professor Snape, who was in his usual black attire reading the Daily Prophet, and Saffron, who was drinking this liquid fluid from a mug.
Saffron's face brightened."You're awake!"
I continued staring at Professor Snape."Hello, professor." He nodded.
Why is he here? Why are we here? How did we get here?
Saffron shoved me a mug."Here's a Vitamix Potion."
I held it, sniffing it."What's this?"
"It energizes you," Professor Snape responded, who was still focused into the Daily Prophet.
"Oh, here's some ambrosia and nectar as well." Saffron gave me a plate of the familiar cubes.
I sat down next to him and began sipping and eating.
"So, how did we end up here?" I questioned.
Professor Snape didn't respond. Saffron and I looked at each other. We were pretty sure Professor Snape heard my question and didn't just ignored me.
"Ah, hello, Severus," I heard a voice pop out of nowhere."Thank you for allowing them to stay here for a bit. Would you excuse us?"
Professor Snape obeyed, leaving the area. Saffron and I spun our heads around to find the man with twinkling blue eyes. I smiled, recognizing the bearded man in the blue robes.
"Dumbly!" I exclaimed, running to him.
We embraced and released."Yes, about how you two got here," he began."I've arrived just in time to catch you two from falling into the ocean."
"But how, sir?" Saffron asked.
He tilted his head."There were ringings in my ear."
Saffron turned to me."What?" He mouthed.
I chuckled, shaking my head. I looked up at Dumbly once again."But Dumbly, what about the Weasleys? They must be waiting for us at the airport!"
"Oh, don't fret. I've contacted them already that you're resting here for the time being. Now then," he extended one of his arms out."Shall we go?"
"B-but our belongings," Saffron reminded.
"Oh, it's already there at the Burrow," Dumbly responded.
"I was sure that it-"
Dumbly gestured for his arm, and we obeyed, grabbing onto it.
"Severus, I'll be taking off now."
We disappeared from Professor Snape's cottage and appeared in a different familiar location.
Saffron's POV
As we landed on a familiar field where the tall grass and corns were surrounding us, the dizziness from this teleportation made me stumble over my feet. I wanted to vomit. I noticed Dumbledore and Bianca were fine.
"Poor, Saffron. Your first time, right?" Bianca asked, patting my back.
"What?"
"Ah, I forgot," Dumbledore spoke up."I heard you used your wand during your adventure, Bianca."
"Oh, uh, I-I was-"
"I've taken care of it. You were indeed in the Labyrinth, am I correct?" He questioned, making sure.
Bianca slowly nodded."H-how did you-"
I swiftly turned to her."Wait, you used magic!?"
"Well, I had to. Luke forced me to do it. And then, I got into a battle with him and the giants," she explained.
As we began walking to the familiar house, the garden gnomes scrambled away from us.
Ah...we needed to de-gnome them...
She turned to Dumbledore."But, Dumbly, how did you know that?"
"Oh, I have my ways. Since Saffron and Chiron informed me that you were gone in the Labyrinth. I assumed you had to use magic, but don't worry, the Ministry of Magic does not know, for the Labyrinth is undetectable to them." He winked.
Sometimes...I can never understand this man...
He continued."Ah, you guys won't be using those airplanes any more since these incidents continue to happen. Instead, I've set up Portkeys to transport you two to camp."
"Hey, Bianca, I still want my galleons," I reminded.
"Shove off, Saffron."
