Tuesday, 11 September 2018, Cavendish Family Mansion, Edinburgh, Scotland
The first steps for Olivia's espionage start to be given, the robot was already left in one of the passages that the nanny used to pass at the time of going to the place where Margareth was, since they could observe her going to that place without knowing yet what was on the other side, Also at that same time Chariot and Croix managed to clean up the remaining debris of Luna Nova, which had not much left, which was burned entirely, not even with magic it was possible to restore all those books, all the objects of the girls who had left, Everything became just a rest of ashes or was buried to the point of not being left almost nothing, crushed by the enormous weight of the collapsing construction, even more that it was a huge hole that was left of rubble that during those days was collected to later be all thrown out so that the reconstruction of Luna Nova could begin, the maximum that was made until then was a levelling of all the land that was left open, so that that place came back to be flat, being carried out little by little, meanwhile Croix and Chariot returned to Scotland to begin something new.
On the afternoon of that day, after the girls had had a quick workout, little Charlotte was left in the hands of Olivia who was taking care of the girl, while the two mothers called the girls, especially Marianne, who was the best designer among them all, to start the project.
" Very well, thank you all for coming " Chariot said.
" As you may already know we returned to Luna Nova, everything was destroyed, it simply turned into a pile of rubble, we couldn't restore anything, we could only throw it away, besides the hole that opened up because of the old underground, which we will use to rebuild everything again, but there's a problem. " said Croix.
" What would that problem be? We can help in any way we can " Akko said
" The problem is much bigger than you think, we don't have the money to do this restoration, we spent everything we had to leave Luna Nova like that and then what was left was all to remove the rubble and level the ground, even the skateboard track was destroyed... Unfortunately it is our biggest impediment " Meridies said.
" So if money is the problem, let's do the following, We help Croix and Chariot, seriously, look at the place you guys are in, at least I offer to donate money and we reach the goal to rebuild Luna Nova, I already have everything " Hellene said.
" I'm also going to help in this vaquinha with whatever is needed," Diana said.
" I'm coming too " said Atsuko.
" Love, you've lost everything, the little you've achieved with your career... Even in mine and Hellene's case it's all right, things we get because we already live very well, but... " At the time Cavendish has her mouth closed by Kagari's fingers.
" The little I stayed there made me feel at home and I will help with whatever is needed, I know that one day in the future our efforts will be worthwhile," said the Japanese woman.
" Then we'll help with that too," Saori said.
" You can count on us too," Laura said.
" We will help too " Hannah said.
" Woah to you guys? " Said the crimson"eyed one in surprise.
" We have the family inheritance, it might be more than enough, let's raise the pounds so that Chariot and Croix can rebuild Luna Nova " Barbara said.
With that they all even hug the mothers in group that were feeling emotional with the support, that could be enough for the rebuilding of the old witchcraft school, there could be a considerable amount of money there, where they even had the slightest idea of how much it would cost, since the skateboarding track alone had already devoured some 150 thousand pounds to be made, the expenses for the restoration could end up being quite high.
" Even with all the money in the world we still have another thing to do, Luna Nova contained books of magic, we will need to get some of them back, but for that we will have to go on a mission in Arcturus, we can try to go to the library there, but to get access only with the staff " McLaren said.
" Then let's do it, we can find many more words, and maybe unlock the staff completely," Akko said.
" Look lassies, we can rebuild Luna Nova, we just have to believe in ourselves, we will do it little by little, first we also have to think about how the place will be " said the redhead.
" Leave it to me, I can help you make a plan and draw the whole building in a way that is newer and at the same time reminiscent of what went before, let's bring a little bit of a new one to breathe," said Marianne already picking up some leaves, starting to sketch some beautifully.
" We already have a place to get knowledge of magic, a place to raise money, a plan for reconstruction, now all that's left is for us to do the most important step," said the Italian.
" Finish off the cultists, let's do that and found Luna Nova, as a school of magic again, we just have to continue with our plan to be able to carry out an attack there and that's it " Du Nord said.
" I think it'll be a good move for us to start as a magic school, but we'll need a good way to promote it so that it gets everyone's attention," the redhead said as she looked at the list of things for the rebuilding of Luna Nova.
" And I do that, I will use my short skate career and start the career of Shiny Akko, I will make my first performance there as a witch, I will show the world the wonders of magic, I even designed a costume these days with Marianne, inspired a bit by the nine witches " Said the Japanese woman.
She was showing a little of the look she intended to do, a blouse with well cut necklines that went until the navel, besides some holes in the shoulder area, with very long and wide sleeves, the blue and short skirt with stockings that reach the thighs, followed by a white boot, hat equally white, this in the Shiny Akko outfit.
Besides others that she showed as one that Diana could wear when performing together with her that was similar to a masked thief and more discreet, except for the wide underpants on the thigh part and also the reddish cape the style fit Cavendish well.
Besides a costume for others who want to participate as extras, in this case it was a simplified version of the costume, this time with trousers and the absence of the hat and white capes, and instead of skirts and underpants in the case of extras would be trousers.
Storyboards were also shown of how those presentations would develop, impressing the older ones by the organized and planned way they already had to do the presentations, and also by the many effects they would have, what could call many children to be attracted in starting one day in magic.
" Woahhhhhh, this is going to be amazing just by seeing it I can already see the potential, for sure it could be ideal for us to get the necessary publicity so that Luna Nova can start to be an academy of magic as it has always been " Chariot said.
" I was very inspired by you Chariot, when you told me that you intended to do theatrical performances of magic, adopt the name Shiny Chariot, express that on the skateboard, I was inspired and decided to take this path, we will be able to finish with the cultists, I believe in it " Said the confident Japanese woman.
" Things only get better now, we just need to get the building all ready, get the money together to make it the most inclusive and modern place, we will be the best magic school in history," Croix said.
" Just hearing these two words makes me very excited, changing the archaic system of Luna Nova and bringing modernity will be the best thing we can do, we can bring many witches to our side and maybe one day change this society as a whole.
" Our dreams will all come together as we rebuild Luna Nova, I believe in that, just follow step by step this whole issue, believe in the future, fight what else stops us from being witches and in the end we will achieve a better future for the next generations, who knows Charlotte will graduate from Luna Nova " Bernadette said.
They go passing the time talking more about the restoration plan of Luna Nova, marking the progress of each one of the parts, where they were separating what was needed to complete each phase, starting with all the monetary organization, since they need a lot of money that will be raised to pay everything, from the reconstruction, The groups were sorted into groups of two, where they separated the money they needed to complete each phase, starting with all the monetary organization, since they need a lot of money that will be raised to pay for everything from the reconstruction to the furniture, having in mind everything they intend to do to bring the modernization of magic, in addition to the technologies employed, since the place will have a generator that works based on magic, which was already developed a long time ago by the hands of April Jordan and is in the Jordan family residence all the construction plan.
Akko, Diana and Amanda are the witches who had the seal of Claiomh Solais, they will go to Arcturus to get the books of magic and make copies and bring them to the school of magic, besides going after the other words of the staff.
Marianne, Hellene and Constanze are in charge of the construction, they are going to draw the corridors, the map and the plan of the place, besides making a model to demonstrate how the building would look like.
Chariot, Croix, Laura, Bernadette, Saori and Morgana will be in charge of the budget, making the calculations of how much in the end it will cost and also raising the money in an account reserved for this purpose of the restoration of Luna Nova, besides resolving all the bureaucratic issue.
Finally the rest of the girls who were going to raise some hype and publicity about the reconstruction of the place, would be in charge of marketing, although this phase is much further ahead, they are practically already starting there to make what would be some propaganda posters.
With each function defined and the groups prepared, they were giving beginning to the Fenix
plan as it was affectionately called by Laura regarding the whole fire, it would be the rebirth of the place.
" Now we just need to get our hands on it, but even then we also have to not forget that there are the missions to finish off the cultists, we have to protect ourselves from the worst that can happen," McLaren said.
" I almost forget that it is because of them that we are in this situation, not to mention the suspicions behind that woman," said Chariot.
" Speaking of her, let's go see where she is " Meridies said.
So they went to the computer to look at the cameras and nothing in the corridors, that's where Constanze turned on the notebook to take a look at the robot, where it was already inside the corridors of the secret passages of the Cavendish mansion, following the way, in a discreet way, ended up giving in another room, which they were watching in a discreet way, noticing that there was nothing too much, it was just another room where Olivia was even treating little Charlotte very well.
" How strange, does she know she is being watched, even stranger is how absolutely calm she is about all this, even more so staying in a place like this " Du Nord said.
" Why is she bringing Charlie into that room? " Meridies said.
" Let's see if there isn't someone else out there," said the redhead.
So they went observing deeper trying to find some presence, but nothing, it was just Olivia's presence, the robot was walking around the whole room, it was empty, just the two people and one of them very tense. Bethany was sitting listening to Margaret's orders in her ear, knowing everything she was saying.
[Try to open your mouth now and I'll blow this thing inside your head, and I'll also press a little button to activate my hidden things, you'll be flying baby guts and your guts everywhere, I think it's good to be very quiet if you don't want to die, just stay in your head].
She then lays the child down on a cot, kind of spoiling the child, where she takes a bottle and starts to warm it up, while the robot looks at everything noticing that there is nothing suspicious, just the presence of the two people, although it is still very strange to be in that place, while Cavendish was tapping the bottle, seeming to want to say something.
[Don't even try to write a message in Morse code by tapping on milk, I've got my ears to the ground for everything you say, do you really think I don't understand Help me? Do more of that and you'll see where you end up].
Olivia stopped on the spot, she turned her attention to the little girl where she was feeding her with the milk she had warmed. While the girls were watching everything they were kind of relieved, it was all in the greatest tranquility, despite the different place, they were noticing that there was no other person present.
" This is very strange, but at the same time it is cute how she takes care of our Charlie, you can see that she gives love and affection, what are we going to do now? " asks Du Nord.
" We'll keep watching for a few days, then we'll get together and go to this room, take a good look," Laura said.
" Can we go together? I know you'll say no, but it's safe," Diana said.
" No! You could be in danger anyway, you never know what's on the other side, so don't insist, you could get hurt or even killed " McLaren said.
" What about you? We are a team, do you think I want to lose my mothers? You're as stubborn as we are, we took the stubbornness from both of you," said the younger Cavendish.
" Look I already said that this is something for us adults to solve, let's just follow to the place and then talk to Olivia because she leads to this part of the house, no big deal, if something happens, even the worst, at least it's with the older ones, not with the younger ones, we can die, not you, you are the future of magic " said the Irish woman.
" Jesus, Mom, sometimes you say some pretty cruel things, you know, your lives are worth as much as ours, also don't put us on a pedestal, you are even more important than us because you know exactly how things work, you have experience in hand, do you think we'll be able to move on after you die? We are going to be extremely lost at every second, that's for sure," said Hellene.
" But even so I know that one day you will find your way, you are intelligent and you are young, I believe in you, anyway, it is already understood, no more you going with us heard " McLaren said and the two daughters rolled their eyes.
" Did you hear mother Laura? I want you two to check with me too " Bernadette said in a more serious tone.
" We hear you mums " They both say together with their cheeks about to inflate.
" Good, then we can close today's meeting," said the redhead.
The girls there are leaving each one to a different place, Hellene and Diana are kind of stubbornly following their girlfriends, where they kind of gather in the bedroom to talk, besides also calling Amanda in the middle.
" Next, we will follow my mothers and Chariot and Croix " McLaren said.
" Are you two really going to break the rules? " O'Neill said.
" I'm going because I know the worst could be out there, we can't afford it, they don't want to believe that much in the theory of Olivia being Diana, but I'm sure, if they end up in this they'll fall into a Margaret trap," Cavendish said.
" Olivia really looks like Diana, the face is very similar, when you showed the photo I remembered her " said the American.
" It's true she looks exactly the same, and what are we going to do? If it's a trap from Margaret? " Atsuko said.
The Scottish lass started opening a drawer of her cupboard, where she pulled out a box and from there she opened it showing that there were several hidden firearms, which left the girls kind of dumbfounded and in shock at seeing all that.
" You will... " They all said in shock.
" Margaret is still alive, I will not let her kill my mothers, if possible I will open fire yes and pierce that woman " Said the determined Scot.
" Diana... sis, where did you get all this from? If the mothers know? " said the younger sister.
" They won't know until we save them from Margaret's hands, I'm sure she'll want to go after mommy Bern to get the Cavendish genetics to have more control over Diana, but she won't, she never will, that Diana is herself, let's not leave her in Margaret's hands too, let's save her," said the platinum haired girl who hid all the guns afterwards.
" I'm with you love, we have to protect them from Margaret's hands before the worst happens," Atsuko said.
" Are you guys with me? " said Diana holding out her hand.
The five join in this mission half-heartedly agreeing, though a little afraid, it was the plan Cavendish wanted to make so that the worst wouldn't happen to the mothers according to the girl's own intuition.
And the plan to restore Luna Nova begins, the phoenix project, the steps have been given, each part of the girls is going to do everything possible to make the place come back, separating the functions between them so that somehow they manage to bring back what was glorious in the past, but with the new horizons of the future.
See you, Phoenix witches...
