Saturday 23rd December 2017
The first day of magic training has just started, having already an idea of how the girls are using the magic, but that still has a huge problem which is to deal with a probable spy or spy who is prowling the corridors, watching and listening to those classes, generating even more attention from Margareth who could be taking a huge risk by staying on the lookout watching the others using their magic, at least the sealed witches, which cause a destabilization in all the magic around revealing the disguise that probably the witch would be at that moment.
The day was dawning, the couple of Chariot and Croix woke up for another day that they were going to try to pass more magic teachings, this time they would be classes involving magic potions through Lukic, that could also be of great use in a plan that the girls could make in the future.
But strangely Du Nord was feeling nauseous as she was walking around the room, she ran to the toilet, where
she started vomiting incessantly, without stopping, in a very strange way, having a lot of help from Meridies who was holding her hair.
" Chariot? " Asked the Italian half worried as her girlfriend went on to finish throwing up almost everything.
" Love... I think she means she's alive " Said the sly Frenchwoman.
" Charlotte? Did we get to use it? " said the lilac haired girl, her voice already changing and becoming a bit excited.
" Yes, exactly our girl, the fertility stone worked and now I'm pregnant " Said the red-haired one, after vomiting, hugging her wife.
" We're going to be mothers! How wonderful! I didn't believe that this would actually work! How wonderful Chariot! I will take care of you both with so much love and care, you are my most precious things in this whole world.
The two went walking around the room, where Chariot was sitting on the bed, by there Meridies was already warning Laura and Bernadette that they couldn't handle teaching the potion classes, since there's a small moment where the red-eyed one ended up getting sick due to the fertility stone being used.
[Laura: You're going to be mothers!? ]
[Croix: I'm going to take care of my Chariot and Charlotte for a bit, but that's just it, Chariot is pregnant, let the girls know that will be the reason for our absence, I know you can handle it, you're older than us Laura].
[Laura: Old is your ass! Fuck you lass, I'll only say one thing, I want to be the godmother of your daughter, to see little Chariot going this far is to brighten my eyes].
[Croix: She said she is also happy with you, anyway she will be your goddaughter, don't worry Laura, there is no other person who has looked after Chariot as well as you have... I even wonder why you never adopted her].
[Laura: And how I tried... But you know they did everything to take her away from me, luckily you and Holbrooke were able to take good care of Ellie's daughter, now she who is having another daughter and I am here crying with emotion].
After this call they go on blocking the phone, Croix takes care of her wife, giving her all the affection and even filling her with food since after so much putting out the hunger came to Du Nord.
On the other hand Laura and Bernadette were all euphoric with the news of Chariot being a mother, a lot because they took care of the girl as if she was their own daughter, both of them had an enormous attachment to the girl that ended up losing her mother very early, a lot because she was already one of the first victims of the strange cultists, she managed to hide from the attack and in the emergency called the only person that she knew who came when the disaster was done. The two older ones were calling the younger ones to go to the classroom for another training, this time without needing much magic.
When all the girls arrived they were already staying in their seats, wondering about the absence of Ursula and Croix, besides Lukic who is usually the cook of Luna Nova, or sometimes one of the caretakers.
" Because they are not here and Lukic is another who knows? " Akko asks.
" Heh, I have been here for so long that you have no idea, if I told you my age you would never believe me, I pretend to be the cook here, but I was one of the greatest potion experts of my time, I even taught these two, at least I tried, since Miss McLaren always caused a disaster with potions, thankfully Miss Cavendish existed to alleviate the problems that the redhead caused hahaha " Answers Lukic.
" Hey, are you really going to make fun of me? Come on, everyone has our weakness and I never studied potions in depth, I had to focus on learning how to defend myself, besides being an excellent broom flyer " Laura said until Bernadette goes just patting her head.
" Alright Grandma Laura, we already know that you had a glorious past flying the brooms, now sit down, as for the absence of Croix and Ursula, it is because they are carrying the new generation, basically our dear Chariot is pregnant " Said the elder Cavendish with a smile on her face.
A generalized discussion started to take over the whole room, the girls started talking among themselves about this event, some surprised, others quite shocked, at the same time there was a joy coming from others, who were quite surprised with the news, until they heard a strong wooden stick hitting the floor, causing a wave of impact, leaving the girls quieter.
" Focus! We have a class here, then you can discuss how Chariot and Croix got laid," Laura said.
" We were just curious, so you mean they did the same thing you two did to Diana? " Amanda asked, and soon McLaren ran a hand over her face, slightly embarrassed.
" Look girls, we had sex like this, but this is not our subject to learn today, let's leave it for another day when I'm in biology class, then I'll try to explain, but this is something kind of private family, especially since I have sex in front of my own... " Said the redhead.
" It's not as if we don't hear you screaming in the bedroom, I've never seen anyone to like it as much as you two, for the nine lesbian witches, as you yourselves moan, I even stopped going there to ask for things, it seems that you're all holed up in the bedroom " said Hellene who soon got a pat from Diana and the whole room was laughing.
" Order, damn it! Focus on the class," said the freckled red who then only with Bernadette's help to calm the atmosphere that was full of laughter all around, relieved a little, starting Lukic's class.
" Very well, you had fun with the little jokes about the sex life of these two, I also confirm that it was not far from what I heard here in Luna Nova, these two seem to like to make love like I make potions hahahaha. Anyway come on, the potions are not mere bottles that give cure, that can poison, I will teach you the art of creating these wonders, how to master potions for your help and why they are so advantageous, especially in more discreet missions " Said the former teacher who was also mocking the whole situation.
Lukic was teaching the potions showing in the board the basic of them, until the more complex ones and even in a way that didn't end up giving sleep, Atsuko and Amanda were feeling entertained until, with all the relaxation about Bernadette and Laura's relationship that was being the joke of that morning class, it was what was relaxing the climate from time to time.
McLaren was getting a little bit embarrassed about the whole sexual jokes situation, but the older Cavendish was calming everything down, giving her some affection, trying to make her ignore the situation.
Until the practical classes, which during the whole theoretical class, was where Sucy had the most fixation, mainly on the part of poisons and other experiments involving potions and mushrooms, in which she became very interested in the manipulation of fungi.
" Now let's see what you can do with the ingredients you have here, you don't have to worry about getting the potion a bit wrong, they are just like that," Lukic said.
" At least now there's a class I'll get to do something " Akko said starting to go about making her potion.
" That is the great advantage of potions, it is not necessary to have magic to manipulate potions, only a good mental capacity, since it is good to always remember what you are doing, besides, it is also great in stealth missions because it does not leave any magical residue that gives away our presence " explains the former teacher.
With that there the girls went making potions of different effects each one, catching a lot of the papers where they saw some recipes, what they were catching in the room that had almost all the ingredients present there, Sucy was the one that was more excited in the potion that she wanted to do, a lot for the part of the mushrooms, where she was using a lot of fungus. Akko, on the
other hand, was making a more basic potion, where it worked as a magic metamorphosis spell, thus advancing the use of each potion, and would have a test performed with white mice to evaluate the efficiency of each potion.
The time was passing in the practical lessons, soon the potions were finishing, Lukic soon was evaluating what each one did, first starting with Atsuko.
" Well let's see what you managed to do... By the consistency and colour is a potion of metamorphosis, I know well each potion by its colour and consistency, let's see what will give this potion " Said the former teacher.
She went on to test the first potion on the little white mouse, which as a drip fell, eventually grew a bit, taking a shape, until it became a white kitten which was quite interesting and a good use of the potion, until the antidote was dripped again.
" Well done Akko, on the subject of potions you really paid attention in class and knew how to make them with the right ingredients.
Then Lukic went table by table to evaluate each one of the potions, in the following was Lotte's, where when testing the mouse started to sing, until a very soft melody, until the antidote was used, with the blonde being quite praised by the teacher. The
next one was Amanda, where the effect was making the mouse go floating and with O'Neill
's hands it was possible that she could manipulate the paths through which the rodent went flying, being even another potion quite praised by the teacher.
Jasminka was next, her mouse ended up puffing up like a balloon, sort of floating up to the ceiling, another one that had an interesting effect until the antidote to the effect and the animal almost fell with everything, but luckily thanks to magic it was rescued with fall damping spells.
Constanze, on the other hand ended up making her mouse end up developing a strange above average intelligence, starting to pick up what it had in its cage, and go about putting something together, until the spell was broken with the antidote.
" Look at that, it could even cause a revolution of the animals, a very dangerous potion to use Miss Amalie Von " Lukic said.
She went on to the other tables, arriving at Hellene, where the rat developed fighting movements, even getting to the point of supporting itself with two paws to better strike the blows, a strange effect, but interesting in the cook's view.
Marianne also had a similar effect, which made us understand that the two were thinking alike, almost thinking of a way to make a rat race.
The next and last one was Sucy, who asked to be the last one because she wanted to surprise, she dripped a drop on the mouse, which started to change its shape, becoming a mushroom and from this mushroom the fungus was increasing on the surroundings of the cage used to keep the animal trapped.
" Woah! This is quite an interesting effect here, you can create an impenetrable wall of fungus in this, if it's a stealth escape mission, you'd have a great way to get further ahead " Lukic said.
" I know, that's the intention, whoever gets close will become a mushroom and with that there will be no escape, whoever chases us will be a fungus for the rest of his life mwahahahaha " Said the Manbavaran even coming up with an evil laugh.
" Remember to sleep with your eyes open Lotte " Atsuko said to her friend.
" Sucy always gives those away, but now he's scared " Yanson said.
" Well anyway I think we have a winner here for best potion today " Said the cook dripping antidote over where Sucy made the potion, causing everything to go back to normal as the fungus was spreading spores more and more around that cage, at the risk of spreading even more around Luna Nova.
" But what about us? She only made several mushrooms? " Amanda said indignantly.
" You also did good spells, but Sucy showed a control of what she was doing, she felt the confidence, and really her potion is correctly performed, even with much more efficient effects than expected, so she ended up being the winner of this practical class today " Lukic said.
" I want to improve on this part of the potions, it's really interesting, I can do things without limit, what goes is my imagination and what I can combine, so who knows I can even create an army of mushroom men and attack these cultists without risking lives based on these spells " Manbavaran said.
" You know it's not a bad idea, a potions girl in our group would be wonderful, I loved this approach, mushroom men to open the way, causing chaos and us sneaking around the edges while they took care of this army... Well, I don't think I'd better say any more than that because I've already said too much," Laura said with her hand on her chin.
" Well, that's all potions classes for today, we will finish here, see you at the next classes, for now enjoy this coming Christmas " said the former teacher.
Then the girls went to their respective rooms, with the exception of Diana, Akko, Hellene and Marianne who decided to stay just to talk to Laura and Bernadette about the event involving Chariot.
" And you? What are you still doing here?" asks McLaren.
" We just want to see Chariot and see if she is OK," Akko said.
" Ohh so come with us, she'll love to see you guys " said the redhead.
The four of them were following the older ones, down the halls of Luna Nova, kind of a bit were being watched by Margareth throughout the class, but who then decided to just stop following, getting a slight smile on her face.
" (So Chariot Du Nord is pregnant? Bloody Louise's descendant, but now interesting, I now have a bit more of Diana's DNA so I can continue my plans and that's wonderful, apart from that of her great"great"granddaughter and great"granddaughter who are still very much alive, this all just comes as a glove to my plans).
The four arrive at Chariot's room, where there the red haired woman was sitting on the bed, next to her wife who was patting Du Nord's belly while smiling at the whole situation.
" Oh you want to see too? I don't even have anything yet, it's been about three weeks since I used the fertility stone with Croix " Du Nord said.
" Charlotte will still be a very cute girl and we will give all the attention in the world to this girl who maybe will be born in a world where she won't have to live all this drama with magic again," Meridies said.
" My future goddaughter, I love this lassie very much and she didn't even come... " said Laura, half moved.
" You know you can even call it a granddaughter, right? Mother... " said the red haired one.
" Mum! " Diana and Hellene said in shock.
" Chariot! They don't know yet about your history with us " said Laura scratching the back of her neck.
" Calm down girls, it's just a consideration really, Laura is not my blood mother, but she was like my mother to me... " Said the one with red eyes almost watering.
" Wait a minute, what do you mean, Mom? You came here in the first year of the orphanage right? " asks the eldest daughter.
" It's a long story lassie, but if you want we can tell you, it's one of the mysteries that surround this place and the people here " said the redheaded mother.
" Look what I can say is that thanks to Laura and Bernadette I could never be who I am today, they saved my life, without them I would not even be alive, it was thanks to them that I am here to have this beauty of a child that one day will bring even more happiness to us " Chariot said stroking her belly.
" I think after the revelations of magic, I think telling them a bit about our past before Diana was born would be something they deserve to know," Bernadette said.
And one more child is about to come to this world so chaotic that they are living, one more new hope reborn in magic, a generation that can come in this world that can be better, if this current generation can revive the glory of magic,
During one more class that this time did not have greater difficulties by the presence of potions that do not require the witch to be a user of magic in order to be used.
See you, pregnant witches...
