Two weeks have passed, the Covid-19 virus that used to be just a little flu ended up being something very serious in Europe, the cases in Italy and Spain gave a huge escalation to the point that they started a forced quarantine, it was a real chaos in these countries, the United Kingdom was also very affected, but by starting the quarantine before, it is even having a good control over the proliferation of the disease, which now was not just another little flu, becoming a big global pandemic, with more than 1 million infected worldwide.

In Luna Nova, the presence classes were interrupted for an indeterminate time and soon Sarah and Diana went running after the damage by starting to create a system of classes at a distance, some witch students had to return home and few stayed, and in each room was limited to only one girl per team, being mandatory the use of a mask and sanitize themselves when leaving. Until one of the students contracted the virus and they all had to go home, as well as the teachers, which caused the doors of Luna Nova to close. Only the teachers and employees who lived there remained.

On 17th March, Adeleine Du Nord dies, at the age of 102, due to this witch flu, which really affects a lot the Du Nord family, and who takes the lead is Anna Du Nord, Chariot's grandmother.

27th March 2020, as much as the whole family insisted, Laura ended up being infected with the Covid-19 virus and got the witch flu, which soon caused a huge scare in the family, she even had to stay isolated, which already left Bernadette a little depressed, Since she was used to sleeping with her wife and touching all the time, now she had to perform a whole sanitary process just to be able to give food the same that was very bad, McLaren was even coughing up blood and needed to breathe with an inhaler sometimes, which worried the whole family even more. In this Akko appears behind the girls holding a broom and with a backpack on her back.

- Girls, we can't just stand here, I'm going to Farnese to get Nessie's saliva.

Says Akko.

- I go with you my love.

Says Diana.

- No!

They all say.

- You are pregnant my love! Let me do everything, it will be just a quiet little trip to get some medicine and soon Laura will return to Bernadette's arms.

Says Akko kissing Diana goodbye.

Akko takes her broom and jumps out the window and goes with all speed to Loch Ness in the hope of meeting with Farnese and to end Laura's suffering. Meanwhile back at the Cavendish family residence, McLaren was lying in her bed writhing in pain and coughing up blood, also suffering from respiratory problems and barely able to eat, Bernadette was watching her from afar on a glass where it was possible for the two of them to see each other.

-Bern... That was a big mistake of mine... I'm sorry... I don't think so... I should... I went too far in trying... Create a vaccine on my own... Own...

Says Laura coughing.

- Hey love, it's not your fault, we are here to take care of you and give you all the love and affection you deserve.

Says Bernadette worried.

- I really underestimated this witch flu, but I noticed that the virus affects the most powerful witches more, as if it took my power and came together to affect my system more, something like this cannot have been made from natural causes...

Says Laura coughing again.

- Love do you still think this has a laboratory origin and was created by governments to manipulate us witches?

Says Bernadette.

- Now I am even surer, if this affects the powerful witches in a greater way, it is with all certainty a method of controlling the witches and getting rid of the most powerful ones.

Says Laura.

-(Curious that weeks ago I had an extremely powerful presence further south, it was so powerful that I could feel the magic of this witch from here, but out of nowhere she disappeared, she was a witch much more powerful than I or even could do facing Harriet and Freya... Could it be that this mysterious witch was a victim of this flu? Or is she behind all this? I don't believe that humans alone would make a virus that so precisely affects us witches, this surely has involved some traitorous witches in the middle).

- You know love... I'm starting to think this flu is also affecting your neurons.

Says Bernadette.

- Fuck you... If one day my theory is right... You will be... My maid for... 3 months... Bernadette Cavendish...

Says Laura coughing and furious.

- Even sick like this you don't stop having a good mood.

Says Bernadette laughing.

- I don't want to do that... Be a bet... My love... Believe me...

Says Laura coughing a little harder to the point of blood coming out.

- Laura!

Says Bernadette worried.

- I... I'm... Ahhh. ..

Says Laura until she faints.

Bernadette rushes into the room worried about the wife who fainted, using all the necessary sanitary protection not to get infected, the same checks the wife's vital signs and she was very weak, while Diana starts having memories of her past.

*Diana's Flashback

23th October 2003, at the Cavendish family mansion, little Diana Cavendish was only 5 years old and was in her room when her mother Bernadette was coughing and caressing her.

- Mommy... You can't get sick... You promised me that I would meet Laura McLaren...

Says Diana.

- You don't have to worry about me, baby... I guarantee you won't regret it... Let Anna take her, mommy will be back fine, it's your golden chance to meet Laura McLaren.

Says Bernadette while coughing.

- But what about you mom? I don't want to leave you alone... You're also a big Laura's fan, I don't want only me to enjoy it and so I won't be happy... I want to stay with you mommy... Take care of you... I'm sure my love will do you good soon.

Says Diana hugging Bernadette who was snitching a bit.

- Ah... Okay... I'll ask Anna to cancel her trip to Ireland for now...

Says Bernadette hugging and caressing Diana.

Diana starts to cry and wet Bernadette's robe a little and just kept coughing until Anna arrives in the room calling Diana to leave the room and go with her.

- Anna... Please cancel the trip to Ireland.

Says Bernadette.

- But Miss Bernadette, this is a unique chance... Miss Daryl is not around...

Whispers Anna in Bernadette's ear.

- I know... But my daughter wants to spend time with me... You know why I can't call her here.

Whispers Bernadette in Anna's ear.

- Understood, so I'll go back to my work. Call when you can my ladies.

Says Anna coming out of there.

*End of Flashback

- (It seemed a bit like that day... Who would have thought that my mother planned to reveal before I was Laura's daughter... Today Laura is very bad... I hope this time Akko can save my mother... I will be rooting for her).

Diana continues there to observe Bernadette who had her head resting on Laura's lap while she cried, she avoids manifesting magic since it seems to give a counter reaction in the moment she tries to cure McLaren with it. But the Irish woman was still with vital signs, a little weak to the point of the older Cavendish turning on some breathing apparatuses and to check her pulse that was very low.

Meanwhile, Akko arrives at Loch Ness in Farnese's hut where she comes out in front of the desperate Japanese woman running towards the blue-haired witch with heterochromatic eyes.

- What have you come to do here girl?

Says Farnese with arms crossed.

- I need your help! I need that magic saliva! My mother-in-law has the witch flu! She could die! Please, Farnese! Help me!

Says Akko in despair.

- My help you may have, but an ordeal will have to pass, Laura McLaren also did not pass by taking Nessie's saliva for free, so prove to me that you are capable of being worthy of Nessie's saliva.

Says Farnese taking her wand and entering an attack pose.

- Wait a minute! I will not fight! I'll pay if you want! How many pounds do you want for a pint of Nessie's saliva?

Says Akko signaling Farnese to stop.

- The money doesn't interest me girl, now come, show what you are capable and Nessie's saliva can be yours, Laura McLaren beat me and took 2 liters of Nessie 's saliva, if she can, you can too.

Says Farnese while Akko got angry.

- It's a fucking life! This is not a game! Do you have no idea how serious the situation is? You're a fucking immortal witch idiot who only wants to play with mortal knots because you doesn't die of natural causes!

Says Akko angry.

- Don't worry girl, you don't have to win from me, just face me and you will get as much as you want from Nessie's saliva.

Says Farnese calling Akko while the same snitch.

- Okay... But I won't take it that light, my mother-in-law's life is hanging by a thread.

Says Akko starting to concentrate.

Akko soon opens her eyes and with them an invisible ray goes towards Farnese hitting her face, in which case Kagari casts a spell in the direction of her that quickly recovers and manages to repel the spell back into the Japanese one that only deviates.

- You are not weak at all.

Says Akko.

- A 598 year old witch will never be weak yet, I have only lost a few times to young witches and they had an impressive magical power.

Says Farnese jumping back and concentrating a spell.

Farnese releases a spell that makes a triangle with her hand and casts a square shape spell going towards Akko who had no way to deviate, in which she is pushed back while running towards the blue-haired witch, but Kagari soon sticks to the ground and makes a little bit of strength starting to walk towards the Scot who casts another one. But the Japanese slowly managed to move more easily and she soon put her two hands together and then moves them back and in this she casts a spell in the form of energy towards Farnese who is hit with everything.

- Rubiha!

Says Akko shooting the spell.

- (I admit it's even fun to do this Rubiha. After I learned in the books that were in the library of the Cavendish family, I ended up discovering the biography of my ancestor Ryouko and learned about the Ruby, I decided to keep the name because it reminds Espheres of the Dragon, I loved that anime).

Akko feels the presence of Farnese disappearing in the middle of her Rubiha smoke and in this she soon defends herself with the kicking arm that the blue-haired which gives her. Kagari soon turns back and casts another spell, only this time the Scottish one disappears and reappears faster to the point where the Japanese one does not notice the presence moving so quickly.

- You Kagari, you haven't changed a bit. The Rubiha is still very much alive in you. How interesting to know.

Says Farnese until Akko disappears again.

In that Akko disappears, she appears giving a powerful kick to the back of her head which made her be thrown forward with everything, what was possible to notice was a reddish aura involving Kagari at the moment she disappears and a shrill noise.

- That's the...

Says Farnese getting up while Akko concentrated again.

(Yes it's the Rubiken, another technique of magic I learned, that the Kagari of the past used, it amplifies the magical power of the physical a little more than the limit for a short period of time, if I use too much my body can get much worn).

- Rubiken!

Says Akko while an aura emanated around her.

Akko starts to "fly" with everything towards Farnese with the Rubiken, while the blue-haired witch was distracted and soon is hit unprepared by a punch in the stomach and a kick, in which the Japanese starts to prepare to launch a Rubiha while the Scot was still stunned.

- Rubiken Rubiha!

Says Akko while shooting a Rubiha with everything in Farnese.

Farnese is hit in full by the Rubiha and in this the wave of magic takes her to a tree and causes a small explosion where she ends up tearing the sleeves of the blue-haired witch's blouse and leaving her arms with some bruises. Then the Scottish woman tears the sleeves of the blouse faces Akko with seriousness and soon aims with her right hand with her palms open concentrating a spell towards Kagari who starts to position herself to throw another Ruby.

- Ness Blitz Wave.

Says Farnese casting the spell towards Akko.

- Rubiha!

Says Akko launching the Rubyha towards Farnese's spell.

A collision starts between the Rubyha and the Ness Blitz Wave that little by little Farnese was winning, Akko starts to notice that he was losing and started to emanate a red aura around it and Kagari uses the Rubiken, managing to reach the half.

- (Shit... Not even with Rubiken I'm getting... As far as I can remember, there's even a way to double the power... But I don't know if the physical expenditure is enough... Whatever I have to save Laura's life is now).

-Rubiken multiplied twice!

Says Akko making more magic emanate there.

In this Akko increases her power the aura starts to emanate with more intensity, the sound of a sharp wind increases even more and the Ruby receives more energy and power going with everything gaining from Farnese which makes the blue-haired witch come back with everything and a slightly more intense explosion followed by a shock wave that even Kagari ends up feeling. The moment the smoke dissipated, the Scot was with more visible bruises, all over her arm, she had on her shoulders, knees and even chest some tears on her clothes, and her forehead was bleeding until it signals the Japanese to stop the attacks.

- Okay... Okay... You beat me girl... Looks like the Kagari are powerful again, how interesting.

Says Farnese panting.

- Now give me Nessie's fucking saliva !

Says Akko a little breathless.

- Apparently you will also need this saliva, look at the state of your body, I see from here that you are all finished using what you call Rubiken. It's not a very difficult technique to use, I myself have one that I keep to use in more critical moments, but it surprises me to know that a witch of your age has such power; she really is at the level of the Kagari of the past.

Says Farnese.

Then Akko goes with Farnese into the hut with a little difficulty to walk, after a while the green-haired witch comes back with a two liter bottle full of Nessie saliva and also with a soup, which the Japanese woman starts to take and soon recovers in an instant.

- Thank you for curling up until you give me Nessie's saliva, I hope Laura hasn't died, now I'm going.

Says Akko getting up from there taking the bottle with Nessie's saliva.

- This Laura McLaren's family is the pure coarseness even with her daughter-in-law, I just wanted to have some fun.

Says Farnese.

Akko returns flying with everything to the residence of the Cavendish family, until when she arrives she is greeted with a hug by Diana who takes the bottle with her saliva and delivers it to Bernadette going to the room where Laura was isolated, in which the older Cavendish takes it and puts it in a tube since McLaren was still unconscious.

- Eat it my love... You'll be fine...

Says Bernadette as Nessie's saliva slowly passed through a tube that went to Laura's mouth.

In almost an instant Laura's skin that was paler than normal begins to return to the tone it was before, so much so that her cheeks were giving a slight reddening, McLaren's face that was a little thin begins to give a slight fattening and she begins to wake up giving some blinks. Until the Irish woman wakes up coughing because of the tube and in this she takes it off with everything, pulling with her hand.

-Ahh! Fuck! Just wait for me to wake up! Fuck!

Says Laura waking up until Bernadette hugs McLaren crying.

- My love... You are well... Nessie's saliva worked!

Says Bernadette while she cried and Laura caressed her.

- Did I have to drink that disgusting saliva? Well... At least I'm alive and well, you'll also need to drink some of that saliva from Nessie, the whole family, so at least we'll be immune.

Laura says as she caresses Bernadette and soon Diana enters the room running and hugs her mother.

- Akko went to Lake Ness to get Nessie's saliva for you.

Says Diana.

- Oh, how wonderful! You're fucking awesome Akko, you must have had quite a fight against that crazy Farnese and she only wants a challenge when the lives of our loved ones are at risk. A pity that she's a little selfish and won't give in so easily to that wonder.

Says Laura smiling to Akko.

After that moment, Laura gets up with all the disposition of the world and with the rest of Nessie's saliva, a huge stew is made that is given to all the Cavendish family, after McLaren passed to all the witch flu, using as a way to vaccinate them.

See you, sick witches...
