Ch 2 Return of Luluhawa (The Secret Island of Hawaii)
Hermione Granger was in her room studying earnestly for the evaluation exam at the Chaldea Britain Outpost. She basically got the books she needs from the study guide that Mashu provided for her and the others.
Dawn Granger and Edward Granger the mother and father of Hermione watch their youngest daughter sitting at her desk, reading a book of ancient civilizations. "Dear, she seems to be engrossed with ancient history now than before," Dawn observes her.
"You're right, whatever happened at Hogwarts must've changed her to pursue history again," Edward said remembering his daughter loving reading about those things, wanting to be a historian when she was older.
"It must've been that man Hermione was talking about. Rimuru Fujioka or something around that." Dawn said remembering what Hermione told them once she got home from Hogwarts.
Flashback
Dawn and Edward were waiting for their daughter at nine and three quarters. They've waited a good few minutes until they saw her walking through the gateway. "HERMIONE DEAR!" Dawn waved at her.
Hermione looked around her when she heard her name, she saw both her parents smiling and waving at her. "Mum! Daddy!" She pushes her trolly over to them as they made, they're way over to her.
"Honey, it's good to see you." Edward hugged her daughter tight,
"It's good to see you, Daddy." Hermione hugged him back. She was spun around by her mother, planting kisses on her cheek.
"Mum!" Hermione protest. "Stop that, we're in public!"
"Well sorry, I just miss my baby girl so much. Your sister is home from university and is eager to see you." Dawn smiles at her baby girl.
"Jasmine's home?" Hermione pique before she smiles. "It's been almost a year since I last saw her."
"Well, we don't want to keep her waiting at the house." Edward picked up his daughter's luggage. "You can tell us what happens at your school over dinner."
"That's right, you probably have so many interesting stories to share." Dawn leads her daughter to the car.
"Uh, yeah interesting stories." Hermione chuckles thinking of what transpired during her fourth year.
During dinner, the Granger family was sitting together at the dinner table, enjoying the Italian Jasmine whip up. Hermione was eating her pasta before her sister spoke. "So, Sis what exciting tale you have this time at your school? Your adventures with those boys are always entertaining to hear."
Hermione looks at her older sister. "Well, there was this Tournament between two other schools called the Tri-Wizards Tournament."
"Really? That sounds interesting." Edward smiles intrigued by her story.
"There was another participant that was competing in the tournament, nobody knows who he was before." Hermione continued.
"Oh, what his name dear?" Dawn asked her daughter.
"His name is Ritsuka Fujimaru, Mum," Hermione said before drinking from her glass.
"A Japanese man? Interesting, does he speak Japanese?" Edward asked about this man,
"Dad, of course, he speaks Japanese. His name is Japanese." Jasmine glared at her dad for his idiocy.
"Actually he was born here in Britain, he lives in Antarctica in a compound six thousand meters above sea level," Hermione added to her sister's sentence.
A fork drops on the table, "Hermione, that can't be true. I know many things there's no compound in the coldest continent of the world." Dawn smiles not believing this is possible. "'Even with magic, that theoretically cannot be possible."
Hermione took something from her pocket, "Well…it is. I got proof." She handed them a letter with the Chaldean logo on it addressed to Hermione.
Jasmine took the letter and checks it front and back. "It's authentic, I don't recognize the handwriting." She gave the letter to her father who looks at it.
Edward looks at his wife, "Honey, this is real. It's not forged or anything. And our Hermione doesn't lie."
"Well, open it dear." Dawn encourages her husband to open the letter.
Edward opens the letter and reads it.
"Dear parents of Hermione Jane Granger,
Your daughter did a great deed by assisting the Chaldea Security Organization in defeating a terrorist group and its leader. Her dedication in assisting my team of researchers in one of our Outposts really impressed them, as such we would like to offer a job in Chaldea. Her mindset met with the expectation of the Research Division. I know granting a minor a job big as this one can worry you, but don't be. I have full confidence that Hermione is a responsible young lady who has a bright future if she wants this path. As director of Chaldea, I'm honored to give her a medal of valor for her bravery. You should be proud of your daughter.
Sincerely,
Director Ritsuka Fujimaru"
Hermione's family looks at her with shocked eyes, their youngest of the Granger family. "Did you really stop a terrorist group, Hermione?" Dawn asked her daughter.
"Well it not me, I just stay at a safe distance from the battle. Ritsuka's Servants really did all the fighting." Hermione blushed. "I-I want to join him, Mum, Dad. I met people who share the same passions as me. That place is for me, so can I have the job?"
Edward and Dawn look at each other. "Well, we want you to grow up with responsible choices," Dawn said.
"The letter from this director seems to be grateful enough to land you a job in his organization." Edward looks back at the letter. "If you want to have this job then you have to work hard there,"
Hermione looks at her parents with a surprised look. "A-Are you guys saying-"
"Yes, Hermione you can apply for a job with this Chaldea Organization place," Edward said with a soft smile.
"You're sure?" Jasmine asks her parents if this was right.
"Well, there are some questionable things about this. I would like to meet this Ritsuka person." Dawn look at her eldest daughter. "Right dear?"
"Yes, this man seems nice enough to give you this job." Edward looks at his wife. "But I want to meet him with my own eyes as well."
Hermione got up from her chair with a bright smile. "Then I should go and study for the evaluation exam then. I'll email Ritsuka if he can meet you guys." She ran off to her room feeling giddy that they agree to let her get this job.
"There's an exam?" Edward blinks as he rereads the letter if he missed something about it.
"Well Dad, it's a Security Organization. They want the best people to hire than an amateur person." Jasmine smiles leaning her head on her arms.
"Jasmine, don't lean on your arms when you're eating dinner." Dawn sighs still can't believe she needs to scold her for this.
End Flashback
Jasmine was in the kitchen looking in the fridge for anything to snack on. Suddenly the doorbell rang gaining her attention. "Is anyone going to answer that?" Jasmine shouted.
The doorbell rang again, Jasmine sighs closing the fridge to answer the door. She opens the door, "Can I help you?" the brunette asked who's in front of her.
"Yes, is this the Granger residence?" A deep voice of a man asked her.
Jasmine looks at the man and blushed at the sight of him. A tall man with spiked indigo blue hair at the front and white for the rest. His jade eyes were covered by a pair of white glasses, he wore a black shirt with four pockets on his tone chest and abdomen.
He wore black pants with black hiking boots. A watch was attached to his right wrist and a navy-blue scarf fading to a teal green at the end. "I-I-I-I-"
"Um, miss? Are you alright?" The man asked her.
"Jasmine dear, who's at the-Oh my…" Dawn blushed too once she laid eyes on the man.
"Dawn? Jasmine? Is everything alright right here-"Edward stopped, he saw his girls blushing at the mysterious man at his door. "Sorry, sir, it's just you've captivated my daughter and wife." He smiles hiding his rage.
"I get that sometimes sir, but as you can see." The man raises his hand revealing a wedding ring on his finger. "I'm already married."
'Well son of a bitch, he was hot too with those glasses.' Jasmine sighs before walking away to the kitchen.
"Ahem, sorry about that uh…Again sorry but I don't believe we got your name." Dawn smiles trying to get rid of her blush from her cheeks.
"Apologies, my name is-"
"SABER!?" They all look to see Hermione with a shocked look from the Servant outside her house.
"Lady Hermione, it's a pleasure to see you as always." Sigurd inclines his head.
"Hermione, do you know this man?" Edward asked his daughter shocked to know this mysterious person at the door.
"Yes I do, he was my bodyguard last year during the tournament," Hermione informs them,
"Yes, master wants me to be with twenty-four seven. Lady Hermione and a couple of people got involved unintentionally." Sigurd informs them with a straight face.
"Master?" Jasmine piques her head out of the kitchen.
"Who is your master? And why do you call him that?" Edward asks still untrusting of him.
Sigurd inclines his head to the Granger family. "Apologies allow me to reintroduce myself again. I'm Saber, one of many Servants who are contracted to our master; Ritsuka Fujimaru. The director of the Chaldea Security Organization." He smiles, "I'm also your daughter's bodyguard whenever danger arises."
"So you're fine being called a Servant, Saber?" Dawn asks concern for this man's strange occupation. "How's your wife feel about this?"
"My wife and I are perfectly fine serving a kind and benevolent master." Sigurd smiles before remembering something that he must do here. "That reminds me, Lady Hermione. An invitation to you and your family was entrusted to me from Lady Mashu and master." He took out an invitation with golden detailing on the corners with the Chaldea's logo on the center.
"Invitation?" Hermione walks down the stairs and took the invitation from Sigurd's hands.
"What does it say, honey?" Dawn walks beside her.
"To our closes friends,
You are cordially invited to attend the wedding of Mashu Kyrielight and Ritsuka Fujimaru on June 15th, 2024 in Hawaii. The ceremony will take place on a private island called the Luluhawa island resort. We await your R.S.V.P.
If you decide to attend, tickets to the plane are attached to this invitation."
Hermione looks at her family. "Well? Should we attend?"
Edward looks at the invitation, "Well it's a free vacation to Hawaii in the states." He smiles looking at his wife and eldest daughter. They nodded agreeing to the vacation that they're invited to. He looks at Sigurd and nodded. "Alright, we're going to Hawaii, everyone."
"YEAH! BEACH TIME!" Jasmine exclaims running up to her room to get ready for the trip.
"I'm glad you're all attending master's wedding; the others also received the invitations as well," Sigurd informs them,
Dawn looks at the Saber Servant. "Um, where exactly do we meet at London's airport?"
"There's a private jet waiting at London's airport tomorrow. A woman name Koyanskaya and a priest named Kirei Kotomine will be waiting at the front with the others." Sigurd informs them, "Are you all set for the information part of the trip?"
"Yes, thank you, Saber." Hermione nodded in response.
"I'm glad to be in service, Lady Hermione." Sigurd inclines his head to the rest of the Granger family. "Lord and Lady Granger, and Lady Jasmine, it's a pleasure to meet you all."
"Lady?" Dawn questioned, never called that before.
"Lord Edward Granger…I like the sounds of that," Edward smirks thinking of the title.
"Lady Jasmine, heh. Hey Hermione, I never knew you know such a knightly character during your time at your school." Jasmine nudged her sister on the arm.
'Ha-ah, knightly doesn't even begin to describe Sigurd.' Hermione chuckles in her mind.
"If you're all set, then I should leave." Sigurd inclines his head before heading to a black 2018 Subaru Legacy and drove away.
"Man, how rich is your director friend is." Jasmine watches the Legacy drove away.
"I'm not sure, just that he's rich," Hermione answered.
Dawn claps her hands together gaining her family's attention. "Alright, let's start packing everyone."
Chaldea Security Organization, June 12, 2024, 9:00 AM
Ritsuka and Mashu were in their room packing their luggage for their trip to Hawaii. Romani was sitting on their bed holding Fou in his tiny arms as he sleeps, observing his parents as they went back and forth from the closet and luggage. Ritsuka sighs, "I still can't believe BB would bring that place back."
Mashu looks at Ritsuka packing their belongings in their luggage. "Don't think too bad about it Senpai. BB-chan was probably doing it for you, personally I like it there at Luluhawa."
Ritsuka looks at his fiancé like she was crazy. "Don't you remember the events of the Servant festival with the time loop caused by BB, Mashu?"
"Yes, that was a problem. But this one is for our benefits, remember what she said yesterday Senpai?" Mashu asked.
"Master-kun, I took the liberty of speaking with our dear client Holeth Penan and manage to add some Moon Cancer touches to the resort!" BB spun around posing with two fingers over her eyes. "Don't worry, it's just for the summer master-kun. Everything will be reset back once the wedding is over, and we get back to Chaldea! Think of it as my wedding gift to you and Mashu."
Ritsuka shutters at the thought of what BB has in store for them. "I wonder what maniacal plan she did with Holeth."
"Senpai, you should get dressed for the occasion. I already packed Romani's things," Mashu walks over to her son picking him up in her arms. "I'll dress him up in the summer outfit that Medb made for him."
"Alright, you should get dressed too, Mashu." Ritsuka nodded, "Speaking of Medb, have you seen her or any other Servants for that matter? When I was coming here after speaking with Holeth, I noticed there's less staff present."
"Oh, everyone has already gone ahead of us to the resort. They want to do something for us, I haven't had any clues on what they are planning." Mashu bounced Romani on her waist.
"Well at least they're excited for us," Ritsuka chuckles before grabbing a blue-flowered flannel and some khaki pants from the closet.
"I'll leave you to change Senpai, come on Romani let's get you dressed for the occasion." Mashu nuzzles on her son's stomach as he giggles.
Ritsuka smiles at them leaving before he changed into his summer clothes. After he got dressed, he grabs the luggage and heads for the hanger bay, where a private jet awaits for him and his family.
Once he arrives Galahad and Charlemagne were waiting for them. "I see you two are ready for summer." Ritsuka points out the summer outfits of his servants.
"Well, it's going to be hot on where we're going. It's best to be prepared then suffering in the heat." Galahad sighs a bit embarrassed that his master saw him in a summer outfit. For his first time wearing something modern, he did look good.
Galahad wore a violet muscle shirt and a black hoodie with purple sleeves. He has some grey swim trunks with pockets on both sides and wore sandals.
"Of course it's going to be hot there Galahad, you were having a hard time picking what to wear that you drag me inside to help you." Charlie sighs before smiling at his grandson. "Well, that's that, by the way, Ritsuka you look nice in those clothes."
"You too Charlie, it seems you have a sense of fashion even you just been summoned a couple of months." Ritsuka looks at his grandfather who wore a yellow flannel shirt, blue swimming trunks, and flip-flops.
"Eh, after we fused the knowledge that I possessed helped me to know what looks good." Charlie shrugs, he walks over to Ritsuka and took some of the luggage off from him. "Allow me to help you with that,"
"Sure," Ritsuka handed him both his luggage to Charlie. The Saber took it and enters the jet and set them in the carrier.
"Senpai! We're here!" Mashu calls out causing them to turn around.
"Fou, Fou!" Fou waved at them while being held by Romani.
Ritsuka blushed at Mashu's summer outfit with her jacket over it. Though he has seen it multiple times he can't help but blush at the sight. "Y-You look good, Mashu." He blinks.
Mashu paused before looking away. "T-Thank you, Senpai."
Ritsuka coughs before looking at his son. Romani wore a blue flannel-like him and baby shorts, on his little feet were sandals with little crosses on the side. "Medb outdid herself once again."
"Y-Yes, she sure has Senpai." Mashu smiles at him.
"If you two lovebirds still gawking at each other then we should cancel our trip," Galahad shouted from the jet.
"Oh!" Ritsuka turns to the Shielder. "Sorry, Galahad! We're on our way,"
"Senpai, can you hold Romani? My arms are getting tired." Mashu asks her husband-to-be.
Ritsuka turns back to his fiancé, "Sorry, come here to Daddy Romani." He took his son from Mashu as Fou jumps on her shoulder.
"Eh! Eh! Eh!" Romani was reaching out to Fou who got out of his hold. He was about to cry when Ritsuka comforts him. "Hey don't cry buddy, Fou will come back. Just wait for a while, alright." He smiles at his son.
Romani looks at his father and smiled at him. He giggles nuzzling on his chest before yawning and slept in his arms. "Awe," Ritsuka place a kiss on his forehead and went off on the jet.
London's Airport, June 12, 11:19 AM
The Granger family arrived at London's airport. Hermione was wearing a red summer dress with a beige summer hat with a red ribbon on it. Her mother wore a white summer dress and her sister wore jean shorts and a black muscle shirt.
Her father wore a dark blue shirt and orange shorts. The whole family wore sandals while he wore shoes. "So Hermione do you know where this Koyanskaya person is?" Jasmine asked her sister as she looks around the crowd.
"Yeah, look for a woman with pink hair in a white business suit." Hermione looks around the crowd for the Alter Ego.
"How about this Kirei Kotomine?" Edward asked her daughter.
"I never meet him, all I heard from the others that he is was a priest from the Holy Church." Hermione said, "I don't know the details, but he gives off a villain aura from what the others say."
Dawn looks around for a priest like character, but it was too crowded that it's hard to even see anyone of the description. "Hermione!" A voice called out from the crowd.
Hermione looks around her and saw Ginny in an orange flannel with white shorts and sandals. "Hermione! Over here!" Ginny waved at her.
"Over there, I see Ginny!" Hermione waved back at her as the others appeared. They walk over to the Granger family.
Draco wore a green short sleeve shirt, white shorts, and shoes. He has sunglasses over his head and a wrist band on his left wrist.
Neville wore a blue muscle shirt, a pair of swimming trunks, and sandals.
Fred wore a short-sleeved red shirt, a pair of blue swim trunks, and flip-flops. George wore something similar, but it was a blue shirt, red swim trunks, and shoes.
Daphne wore a pink sundress and sandals.
Luna was wearing a light blue sundress and a blue sunhat.
"It's good to see you all again," Hermione hugged Ginny. "How was your summer?"
"It's good, Lord Mal-sorry Lord Animusphere offered us the Outpost for us to stay." Ginny smiled, "After we got the invitation, Lady Animusphere was able to set us up with summer clothes to Hawaii."
"Draco, your parents are generous." Hermione smiled at the Animusphere's heir.
Draco shrugs his shoulder, "Well it's what my mother does to people who need it." He sighs before smiling, "It's good to see you, Granger."
"Same Draco, Daphne your dress looks gorgeous." Hermione moves on to Daphne who twirls around.
"Thank you, it was laying around my closet until I found it." Daphne giggled, "I figured why not wear it now."
"That ribbon looks cute on you Hermione, I wish I had thought of that." Luna sighs,
Neville smiles at her, "Don't worry Luna, I'm sure we can find something to add to your hat." Draco and the twins chuckle at him, they realized how much he cares for Luna.
"Awe, thank you, Neville. You're sweet." Luna smiles at him.
"So,"
"Hermione, care,"
"To introduce us?" the twins asked, looking at her parents.
Hermione turns around to see her family walking up to them. "Hello children, is your parents around?" Dawn asked concern that their parents would leave them here in an airport alone.
"Guys, these are my parents, Edward and Dawn Granger." Hermione introduces them to her friends.
"A pleasure to meet your acquaintance." Draco inclines his head to them.
"My, such good manners. You must be Draco." Dawn inclines her head. "A pleasure to meet you as well."
"Same here, nice to meet ya." Edward offers his hand to him.
Draco oblige and shook it. "The pleasure is all mine sir."
Hermione moves on to her sister. "And this is Jasmine, my older sister."
"Nice to meet all of you." Jasmine smiled at them.
Fred blushed at the sight of her and turns away. "Nice to meet you, Jasmine. I'm Feorge and this is Gred." Fred nudges his twin on the side.
"Uh, hello." Fred blushed.
"Awe, such a cutie." Jasmine chuckles.
"I see you're all aquatinted already." Everyone turns around to see a priest with brown shoulder hair and blue epitrachelion on his shoulder.
"We make such a unique group of people here." Koyanskaya was next to Kieri in her usual attire.
"Oh, father. It's an honor to meet you." Edward inclines his head to the priest along with his eldest daughter and wife.
"No need for that my son, please raise your head." Kieri smiles at the new group of people.
"Um, father are you supervising these children in their parent's place?" Dawn asked the Alter Ego.
Kieri was about to answer when Koyanskaya interjects, "Yes we are ma'am." The Alter Ego walks up to her. "I'm Alter Ego or Koyanskaya, the secretary of my master Ritsuka Fujimaru; and his UN representative."
"UN? As in the United Nations, you are one of the representatives?" Edward asked quite surprised to meet a member of the UN here out of all places.
"Yup, my master and the Secretary-General have ties that they need me to deliver important messages to one another." The fox woman smiles sweetly.
"Yes, now that you're finished with your introduction Koyanskaya." Kieri inclines his head to the Granger family. "Allow me to reintroduce myself, My Servant class is Alter Ego, my name is Kirei Kotomine. I'm the assistant director of Chaldea's Russian Branch and Servant of my master, Ritsuka Fujimaru."
"Oh, a pleasure to meet you again father. I'm Edward and this is my wife Dawn." Edward motions to his wife.
"A pleasure," Dawn inclines her head.
Edward pulls Jasmine in front of him. "And this is my eldest daughter Jasmine."
"Hello," Jasmine waved.
"It's a pleasure." Kieri smiled at them.
"Uh, father does that mean you know-"
Kieri nodded at Hermione's question. "Yes, I work with Kadoc. I usually take over whenever there's a meeting or something important arises for him."
Hermione nodded before asking another question. "Since you're coming with us, you're overseeing the wedding ceremony for Ritsuka and Mashu?"
Kieri chuckles, "Yes I am, usually the master would ask Shirou but he wants to spend time with Assassin."
Both Dawn and Edward froze when he mentioned an assassin, "Uh,"
"No need to be concern about the name. It's just a code name that we use for missions and stuff." Koyanskaya waves it off like it was nothing. She looks at the clock above her realizing the time. "Oh, look at the time. We've better go or else we're going to be late."
"Oh, right sorry." Edward turns around and grabs the trolly with their luggage.
Kieri faces the guest of his master, "If you all follow me, we will make it to our private plane." He led everyone to a terminal where a stewardess stood behind a desk.
She looks at the priest and smiles. "Is this everyone on Mr. Fujimaru's guest list, Lord Kieri?" she asked the priest.
"Indeed, young stewardess." The Alter Ego smiles at her.
"Alright, please have your passports out and ready please." The stewardess asked as everyone took out their passports ready for her to check. Once everyone was checked they enter the terminal to the jet.
"Allow me to help you with your luggage sir." Another stewardess helped Edward placing their luggage in the compartment above them.
"Thank you," Edward thanked her before he took his seat next to his wife.
Dawn looked around her in awe of the jet. Beige walls, nice red comfy chairs with TVs on the back of the headrest. Everything about this jet says that this man is a trillionaire. "This place is…I have no words." She just stares around her. "This is like those planes from those TV shows."
Jasmine took the seat behind her parents; she felt the seat. "Man, this is comfy. I could live like this." She places her arms over her head and relaxed.
"Man this is exciting," Neville said never been on a plane before.
"I know, I never been on a plane before too." Luna happily said.
Draco grabs a sleeping mask and covers his eyes, "Daphne, can you wake me up when we land."
Daphne chuckles at her betrothed's request. "Yes Draco, I will." She grabs the remote to watch a movie on the TV before her.
Fred and George were indulging themselves with the food they bought from the airport, "Merlin, this is good George." Fred ate a piece of snickers.
"You said it, Fred!" George took a piece of gumdrops and place them in his mouth, savoring the juicy taste.
Hermione and Ginny sat next to each, "I can't wait to see Ritsuka and Mashu." Ginny said with glee, "Especially Romani."
"I know, I still can't believe that they're getting married in Hawaii!" Hermione exclaims in glee,
"I wonder how he afforded a private resort?" Ginny asked her friend.
"Remember Ginny, Ritsuka is rich. He owns a Security Organization and gains money from the UN." Hermione said before the PA came on.
-ZZZ- Hello, Hello, passengers. This is your captain. Please enjoy this cruise as we head off to Luluhawa resort Hawaii, please watch the video of the safety measure if we have any problems. -ZZZ-
Hermione turns to Koyanskaya behind her, enjoying a glass of rare wine. "Uh, Koyanskaya. I never heard of Luluhawa before."
Koyanskaya places her wine glass in the cupholder. "Oh, I forgot to mention this. Luluhawa is a magic island that was created by a certain Moon Cancer, the founder of the resort has set the establishment off the main islands of Hawaii."
"So it's not on any maps?" Hermione asked curiously.
"If you're a Magus, then yes. Regular maps will not contain the location of the island, only the Association knows the area, for it is rich with mana." Kieri added.
The fox glared at the Alter Ego and sighs, "Yes, the island isn't on any maps of the public. From what master told me, BB and the client have agreed to make the resort entertaining like the last one."
"That sounds interesting," Ginny said getting excited about it.
-ZZZ- Attention passengers, we're finished with flight preparations and about to take off. Please fasten your seatbelts and prepare for flight. -ZZZ-
The plane disconnects from the terminal and drove down the runway. The plane made it to the runway as it picks up speed, soon it took off in the air heading for Hawaii.
-ZZZ- Attention passengers, we have taken off to the sky. Please enjoy the relaxing cruise in the sky as we make our way to our destination. -ZZZ-
