Chapter 6
Jake hit something when he land in the water. It was some baggage from the crashed plane, which layed on the bottom of the river. He and his friends where shocked. He could just imagine how much people had to be dead right now. Trixie and Spud hold on Jake during they dived deeper and deeper into the dark river. He didn't know what for a box they need. But finally they found something what looked like a treasure chest.
"What do you think? What is inside it?" Trixie asked.
"Who knows? Let's open it!" Jake said after he took the chest and start to leave the scene.
Frederick's parents stood in the terminal of Munic Aiport and waited for an answer. Thier flight to New York was cancelled and there was no chance to get a seat in another plane to America. After Frederick disappeared, they decided to fly to New York to ask Jake for help. But short time after they land in Munic, they heared that thier connection flight to Newark was cancelled.
"Please, we have to go to New York!" Mr. Buttersleeves shouted to the woman behind the information desk.
"Sorry, Mister! I could give you a seat for a plane to Los Angeles. But you have to wait..." the woman said.
"But we can't wait!" Mrs. Buttersleeves shouted and pulled the neckerchief of the woman, so that she came closer to her. "My son is missing. And the only one who can help us is in this city. You give me a seat, or a cargo-room place or a container... that's not neccesarry, but something what brings us to the United States."
"Let me go or I call the security!" the woman said angrilly and Mrs. Buttersleeves unloose her.
"Sorry!" she said before they get thier waiting-list tickets and walked threw the big overloaded terminal. When they arrived a information board they could see that all flights from the United States where also cancelled or delayed. Later they heared above the blackout...
Frederick opened his eyes and saw that he was laying in a cage. The arrow was still in his body and he could feel the pain when someone ripped it out. He growled and some people start to scream. Than he looked around and saw that some people stood around him and stare at him.
He was captured. The people around him wanted to take some photos, but thier cameras didn't worked. They wanted to take a picture of the gigant wolf. He didn't know how much time passed since he saw the explosion in the power-plant. From this place the people couldn't see above the hills where the plant was. Maybe they had no clue, that they where all in danger.
A few moments later he could hear shoots from a gun. The people where scared when a second big wolf with two people on his back arrived and growled angrilly. Frederick recognized them: Jacob and his parents.
"Let him go!" Jacob's father shouted and threatened the people with a shotgun. "He is not a monster, I mean look at thatone..."
The people looked on the second big wolf who snarled angrilly and showed his big teeths. Someone threw the keys to them during all people hold thier hands up. Jacob's mother who weared the translation-headphones took the keys and opened Frederick's cage. "We are so glad that we found you! We where evacuvated to the magical-world and there we saw the news above you. Who of this people here kidnapped you?"
"Nobody! It was someone other. I could flee... how did you find me?" Frederick asked and she could hear it.
"That's a long story. Jacob could smell you and..."
"We have to warn the people here!"
"What? What warn?" the woman asked confused during they walk closer to the others.
"On the hill I could see how a nuclear power-plant explode, maybe... 6 or 7 miles away. The people here are in danger."
"Oh my gosh. It is worse...?"
A weatherman presented the radioactive cloud on a satelite-picture.
"...and now, because the meltdown in the power-plant is confirmed, we can see here that the radioactive cloud is going to the west. Above Pennsylvania and the state New York. But if the wind changes, the cloud whould be directly flying to New York City, New Jersey, Philadelphia and other high-populated areas. The fact that there is no chance to contact the local...
On a working TV in the studio in Washington D.C. the magical-creatures who gived the interview where shocked. A meltdown... a second Tschernobyl... they couldn't belive it.
On the other side of the room, the exposed wizards had to demonstrate thier powers in front of thier colleagues. In other parts of the city, some lights switched on again...
All over the blackout-zone, lights start to switch on again, cars turned on and mobile phones runned again. Jake and his friends who stood on the bridge again could see that a few lights turned on on the bridge, but not all.
"Oh, god... thank you!" Jake said into the sky and looked on the chest they found.
It was a woden chest with golden decorations and a big heavy lock. Jake tried to open it but it was to strong.
"What if the man who wants the chest has the key?" Spud asked. "And what if that in the chest is something dangerous?"
"Wait, I remember something..." Jake said. "A year or more ago, gramps told me above a potion which can be used to see threw walls. Than it disappeared because dad wanted it to spy out the courious neigbours. It have to be here somewhere,..." he said and looked in his pockets for the right potion.
Finally he found it and brushed some of it on the chest. They where very astonished when they saw that the chest was full of gold and jewels.
"Wow... that's so beautiful!" Trixie said. "But all this chaos for a chest of gold. I mean he will publish a picture of Frederick where he eat children... but for this gold he will not do it?"
"Maybe! There are much of crazy people who do the craziest thigs for less." Jake said. "But I think we have no other chance. Can you imagine what will happen if the magical-world is exposed..."
What Jake didn't know was that all over the world the magical-creatures leaved thier world and walked threw the humans world. Everywhere, high magical-politicans stood in front of masses of humans and telled about thier world. Everywhere the humans where scared above the creatures allthough they slowly calmed down.
In London, a reporter interviewed a crying pregnant woman.
"When did you found out that your husband is a vampire?" the reporter asked during millions of viewers worldwide saw the interview.
"After... we saw that... interview from... America." she stammered. "He jump away and ran to the phone to call someone.... I still watched into the TV and than I don't know how but I cut me into the finger... I've blooded... and than I could see it... he was... thirsty..."
A few metres away, the vampire stood, binded on a chair with ropes and a straitjacket and heared that his wife was afraid of him. "I wanted to tell you it... but I was afraid how you will react... And I didn't wanted to attac you, but I'm out of pig-blood and I haven't drunk something since 2 years and...."
"And that inside me? I'm afraid that it will kill me!" the pregnant woman shouted and pointed on her fat stomach.
"He will be a half-one... he will be able to survive 20 years without any drop of blood..." he vampire said into the camera and was shocked. "Is your world really ready for this all?"
In Buenos Aires, a reporter interviewed the parents of an exposed human-supporter.
"...we had no clue what he does the whole day. We thaught that he has a job in the shop of the parents of this boy." the still shocked mother told.
"And what's with this boy? Did you ever met him?" the reporter asked.
"Just one or two times! We can't believe that he is a fire-breathing something!" the father explained.
In Chisinau, a reporter interviewed a injured boy in a hospital. On his right arm he had a bloody wound from the beat of a werewolf.
"He... he... was my best friend. And after we saw that in the TV what happend in the US, I just said: I hope that they will catch this things. And... than... he freaked out." the boy told.
"What do you mean with that?" the reporter asked.
"He said: 'how do you can say this! Or should they catch me?' Than I said: You! Than he crowled and transformed into this gigantic dog and than... than I was..." the boy cried and pointed on the big bandage on his right arm. "He... wanted to eat me!... In front of ... my family. My father took... scared a knife and... knifed him..."
In Los Angeles, a reporter interviewed the both roommates of Jacob's brother.
"We where sure that he was also one of this things. We couldn't know that he is a normal human. And I don't understand why they arrested us because 'Tryed Homicide'." the boy who knifed him said and hold his handcuffs into the camera. "That is all a terrible mistake..." he shouted during the police-officers pushed them into a police-car.
"But the magical-world says that he was a human and that you tryed to kill him." the reporter said.
In Athens, a reporter stood in front of a apartment-building and talked into the camera.
"...offical, the building behind me is abadoned since 2 years. But now after the happinings in New York, the owner of the building found out that more than 20 of this strange creatures are living in this building and don't pay and rental." the reporter told and turned to a handcuffed leprechaun. "Can you tell us what you are?"
"Let me free!" the leprechaun shouted. "I have the meal in the oven!... We are sorry about that what happend in the states but we haven't anything to do with it!"
In Lisbon, a reporter stood on the beach in front of the life-raft of a magical passenger plane.
"The plane from this another world was on the way from New York to Porto. When the blackout happend, two hours after the take off, the plane got hardly damaged but could still fly more than 3 hours and make a water landing here near the coast." the reporter told and turned and looked on a big troll with a pilot-uniform. "Do you understand our language?"
"Of, course I understand you, I'm Portugese." the troll said angrilly.
"But your are one of this things!"
"Don't call me thing! I had a very bad night and if we smashed a little bit harder against the water, I'm my first officer and our more than 250 passengers where dead. I just know that we where affected by the blackout because we flew threw the humans-world in that moment. It's a miracle that we could restart one of the three engines and arrive Europe. I'm sorry that I collide with two boats during the landing but we couldn't turn back into our own world."
Somewhere in Southwest-Germany a reporter interviewed a boy in his room.
"How do you can explain, that all that what you write in your online Fan-Fictions became true?"
"I can't explain that! I'm also very shocked about it. I mean, I make this just for calming down. Although my English is very bad..."
"And why?"
"Hello! Did you ask me why all that happend or why my English is not so good? Im German with parents from Russia and you ask me why my English is bad?" the angry boy shouted into the camera and hold his hand above the lens. "I really can't explain why all that happend what I wrote. I write a good end... Okay!"
If Jake and his friends could see all this interviews, which where aired in the whole world, they would stop thier plans and just attack this blackmailer. But they had no other clue than to do what he want. Jake land on the roof of a burning skyscraper and looked down on Ground Zero. All over where people...
"Jake, if one of them see us, it's over!" Spud said.
"Yes, we have to be really carefull."
