POV Narrator:

Friday 9 November 2018, Daryl's Hideout

A week has passed since Daryl's plan, this time was enough for the dust to settle and so the WCI agents left the scene stopping investigating the surroundings of the place, this way leaving the space free for Daryl to accomplish the kidnapping plan, which none of the girls had any idea that he had something so high about to happen, the most even exhibiting some tranquility after Merrill was arrested, but there are still two missing, these two are planning something behind everyone's back that will be almost imperceptible.

POV Daryl:

Finally it's today, the bar is clean, the agents are out of range, this is going to be a very full night, I start to put on my minotaur disguise, I had time to create one without using magic, so I'm practically imperceptible, it's going to be very quiet, besides having a bag in hand that will be useful for the disguise, everything ready for the kidnapping, I look at my daughter, I notice that she's getting ready, leaving the things in her backpack.

"It's today" she said.

"Yes it is today, let's take Brooke here girl, just be careful, we have to be very careful, she might end up having a chill or something" I tell her.

"The chloroform is all right, I'm sure it won't be bad, I'll get it soon" said Maril.

We face each other, we look at the hiding place one last time, now with the disguises we take the brooms and go approaching through the forest of Arcturus, taking the flight until very close to Luna Nova, when we reach the wall that separates the academy of witchcraft from the forest, I look inside and with that disguised, and my daughter transformed into an owl, we go to the inside.

"I hope I'm convincing enough" I whisper to her.

We are walking and for now no one has noticed our presence, it's being very calm, until one of the minotaurs appears pointing the lamp to us and I wave to him pretending to be a bull too, he gets very close.

"Oh Gaius, did you forget your lamp again? Well my shift ends here, I'll leave my lamp with you" I'll just nod my head in agreement.

Then he greets me shaking his head and holy shit how strong that was, it made me feel bewildered, but it was enough, he was leaving and now it's our chance, I signal my daughter to fly in the shape of an owl to the window, I was getting closer to where it is, so far so calm, nothing disturbing us, luckily no creature besides this minotaur around.

"What a silly way to greet" I whisper to myself, seeing that the owl finally reaches the window.

Maril opens the window and nobody notices, now it's up to her, I just hope this mission is a success, it's all or nothing, it will only be a matter of time until Diana discovers the kinship with Laura, that's if she doesn't already know and it could end up complicating things a lot in my mission to manage to lead the Cavendish family.

POV Maril:

Finally I arrive to the inside, they are all sleeping, I return to the normal form, I take the bag from the bag, big enough for the boy's body, I feel a little sorry, but they are orders, it is for a greater good, I see him lying on the bed with the greatest tranquility and I get the chloroform, I put it in a cloth, I sneak up to his bed, where I put the cloth over his nose and he wakes up and even opens his eyes and struggles.

"shshshshshsh sleep with the little angels boy, I won't hurt you" I whisper to him who slowly fades away.

That's wonderful, without much debate, good that it didn't make enough noise to wake up the other girls, they didn't even look, now he fell in a deep sleep, I take advantage and get some ropes, tie his arms, then his legs, doing a little bit of force, so he won't escape, then I tie them around his body so he doesn't move his arms and legs, he stays very quiet inside the bag.
Now I tie him up and place him carefully inside the bag, this one has a few holes to breathe, which is less bad, so he doesn't suffocate on the way, I close the bag very tightly, now I just need to take him outside, tie a rope to go down carefully the load, since I can't make him fall. Before I check the window and see my mother signaling.

"Time to leave Luna Nova Brooke, from here I will take over you - I whisper to it starting to carry the boy's heavy body.

Not for nothing, but he's not light at all, I'm taking him to the window, with the rope I get to the point where I wanted and I saw my mother with her hands open, I'm starting to go down using the rope, his body is slowly going down with the help of the rope.
Reaching my mother's hands, I look at the room and for now the bar is clean, none of the girls noticed anything and they didn't even wake up, whew, the worst thing is that I don't have much vision since the rope weighs too much to hold the boy's heavy body, until I feel a relief.
I look in the window and it's my mum, she managed to catch him, then she cuts the rope, I'm pulling it back to the inside until I get all of it, which I then close the window.

"There now the first part has been done - I whisper relieved.

I take advantage and get the things in my backpack, the mobile phone and everything I'm leaving outside, ready to receive messages from my mother, I'm looking from the window still half closed she leaving with the boy's body, I see that on the table he had his things, it will be complicated to pretend to take these hormones of his, I hope that the girls do not invent to inject in me, it seems it's an injection.

POV Daryl:

This boy is heavy, but I can carry him, now it's time to walk through the courtyard of Luna Nova, I'm doing it with the necessary care and without drawing attention, I see other workers, I wave to them, I get to where there was a wall, I take his body to the top side and then throw it to the other side in the middle of the forest, I jump then, arriving safely to the other side.

"Whew... What a heavy boy, not for nothing, but these hormones gave an extra weight in these boys, the fake breasts really weigh something hahaha" I whisper after I am safer on the other side.

I breathe relieved, still half panting, but from here it's just a run to the other side, which I take the opportunity to take my head off to breathe a little, I go looking up still half tired, I breathe a little, but my peace is interrupted by a working heron that appears.

"Miss Cavendish, what are you doing disguised as a minotaur at..." I cast a spell on the heron levitating her up here and holding her right in front of me.

"Listen here little bird, if you open your mouth for a second I will make a mincemeat out of you, you hear me?"

"Got it, got it Miss Cavendish, I'll keep quiet" I still held him by the neck.

"And not to talk to anyone about it, I'm not Miss Cavendish, open your mouth to her and the last thing you'll have in your mouth are ants seven feet under the ground"

"All right Miss Cavendish I didn't see anything, I didn't hear anything, I'll keep quiet" I just showed him a little of the pistol with silencer and he stayed quiet.

The girl goes out of there leaving me in peace, I get up with the minotaur head, the good thing about this clothes is that it helps to warm up, I go up the broom, I put the boy's body on my back and I go flying until a little slowly until my hiding place, the abandoned factory on the Arcturus sides, I go in there relieved even, I take a deep breath, nobody noticed my presence. I
go dragging the body until I arrive at the captivity where I wanted, I take it from there and I see that Maril even tied it very well, I leave it lying on the mattress, now I just have to tell the girl that I managed to arrive and the mission was accomplished, I leave the captivity. I
lock the door and go to my room, where I take my mobile phone and take off my minotaur
disguise where I can breathe relieved.

- Finally, I have arrived at this place, now it's just to see what my girl will be able to do.

In Luna Nova...

POV Maril:

Whew, I just need to wait now for my mum's message and things will go back to normal, I need to pretend everything very well, the girls are all sleeping, I could see that she managed in the end to escape well, now it's just waiting for things to go as expected, keep calm that a part of the mission was already done, now it's just to cause chaos.
Soon my mobile phone vibrates, my mum got it, I'll even check the messages, I can't wait to see Brooke's face and reaction after everything.

[Mother: He is here, I managed to bring him without too many complications, but keep your eyes open for a heron called Ygor, From what I saw on his badge, he ended up seeing me without the disguise, now for now sleep, tomorrow is going to be a busy day for you, rest to take his identity, without taking risks, I will take care of him here, in the morning I will tell you how he has been behaving, for now it is good for you to rest] 2:39

Ahhhhhh how wonderful, I managed to accomplish a mission, this, my mum is going to be so proud of me when she sees the results, I can't wait to see everything connecting and fulfilling, hahahaha, this is going to be wonderful, now I'm going to rest, you two are going to meet a Brooke who is a real woman this time. I
lay down on the bed, fold my eyes, now I just have to wait for the day to dawn and see how everything will turn out, ahhhhh, this is going to be so good, I even imagine that to win Diana's trust will be too easy, it was like taking candy from a child, I even thought it would be more complicated, to think that Merrill was being stupid enough to be arrested.

Back in hiding a few hours later...

POV Brooke:

I go opening my eyes, I just remember seeing someone just like me putting a cloth in my mouth, I quickly look at legs, I go looking more up the legs reveal someone sitting on the chair, a half strong light stays on me, I try to see around, still can't process, I hear chains sounds, when I look at my feet, one of the ankles was bound with handcuffs, what the fuck is this? Someone is holding me captive.

"Looks like you're awake, kid" That voice... It can't be.

The light gets dimmer and reveals the face of... Daryl, hair back, it can't be her, what does she want with me, why am I stuck here, I'll try anyway but the handcuffs are pretty strong, I still go looking around and I'm in some kind of prison... What is this place? I'm still confused it can only be a big one of a nightmare, a terrible one of a nightmare, until I feel a strong pinch on my arm.

"This is not a nightmare, not a dream, you're under my power now" Daryl said and with that I became even more afraid, realizing that I was kidnapped.

"What? How did you..." I even slip on the floor falling on my ass and she just walked towards me as I crawled backwards sitting up.

"What's wrong, Brooke? Scared of me? Did you really think you could run away from me? I'd pick you up sometime, but don't worry, it's not now that you're going to meet your mother" she said intimidating me and I just started to cry.

"And why kidnap me then? I have nothing useful" I tell her.

"Well you have a certain resemblance to my girls, at least in the face, it even amazes me that a boy like you could get so many effeminate features, anyway, this was useful for my plan that involves you" I was starting to think, now her daughter must be impersonating me, so that's it.

"And why go through me? It's not worth the effort, what's the point of this whole plan?" I ask her.

"You're just the first step for us to have Diana in our hands, my daughter, who is much more of a woman than you ever were, will impersonate you, gain more friendship and closeness with Diana and thus be able to lure her to our main goal, we will kidnap Diana and torture her until she comes to give us the leadership, It's very basic and having you here now is a guarantee of that, soon you'll be able to be free in another world, but in this one for now you'll be trapped until your last days" she said and things are starting to process in my head, I'm even looking a little bit sad, my concern was even being the dysphoria, but in fact, I'll be killed here if I resist a little more.

"You're a monster... How can you do all this? Is it even worth it? Look at what you put your daughters, one is attached the other is just a mere object, you yourself will only be leader of very nothing, why all this fixation" I tell her still trying to loosen the chains.

"It's no use, these chains won't come off, you can try and they will still keep you locked up, anyway, I'll at least let you live here decently, the food will be good and you can still inject your hormones, I don't want you to die all sad and crying with nature claiming what you are... Man" she said intimidating me, well at least she was nice about it, I can still take my estrogen, but I'm scared? My life is with the days counted.

"And why all this? Answer me?" I ask her.

"It's much bigger than you, I'm not going to risk letting you know, now enjoy your new stay in this new five star hotel of yours" Daryl said and then walked out of the captivity and locked the door.

I was even getting a little desperate, I can't believe they kidnapped me, worst of all is that if they find out I'm not Brooke, Daryl might kill me, I have to think of a way to get out of here and still get out totally unharmed, I need to use my magic, I need to think with my head... Shit... But there's no wand around here or anything, how am I gonna be able to use magic.

"Mum..." I say half hugging myself, I even start to cry, I'm stuck here and I'm just an object, I'll end up dying, there's no way.

POV Daryl:

Everything according to the plan now, well it's already kind of late now, I'll take a night of sleep, he can complain all he wants, so early he won't leave the prison, even more that there is an alarm to warn that he will leave, I have everything planned here, the tricky thing will be if he uses magic, but that's not a problem, he will never get it, he doesn't have a wand, besides he is a man, man doesn't have magic like woman, I take advantage and take pictures to send to my Maril just to let her excited to see that our mission worked.
Then I go to a microphone that is near the factory machines, I'm giving some touches in it, just to test something.

"Testing, testing, it seems that you can hear me very well, isn't it Brooke? Welcome to your new home and don't think you will be able to escape, I have cameras watching you, I have sensors on the doors, you don't have the slightest chance to escape, and if I want I can do it here" I say pressing another button that electrocutes her through the chains.

I hear some of his cries of desperation and pain, kneeling on the ground and in pain, but what a thing, now he will have to bow down to me, I will show this stench who is the boss, no one told him to get in my way and now he will have to pay for every moment that he is in this.

"Do you like it? Well enjoy it, be an obedient boy in your last days and you'll be able to go to heaven with your mother, well as I know your habits, tomorrow is injection day so be behaved and Aunt Daryl will give you your beloved girl juice, but be obedient, or else you'll run out of hormones, you'll be such a weird and deformed boy and I'll make sure to help you with that" I tell him that he is getting a little quiet, that's what I want, leave him in my power, he'll do exactly what I tell him to do.

Little does he know that the intention of keeping him hormonised is so that he remains weak, if I leave him without taking it, his testosterone may rise again and by consequence his strength, I have to keep him weakened with testosterone low and only on estradiol, he has no idea that all this is still a bigger plan, well now I will rest.

In the morning in Luna Nova...

POV Maril:

I wake up in the morning, today at least there's no class, I see that my roommates are still sleeping, less bad, I take my contact lenses and go to the bathroom, it's the first thing I do after washing my face, I even look at it and look very convincing, so no one will notice me like Maril, but I have to be attentive.
I finish doing my personal hygiene, I even feel a relief, this place is much better than the factory, it's more comfortable, it's not that bad, but I won't let myself get carried away by that, then I go to my mobile phone. I
see the pictures of Brooke finally awake, he's really devastated, I imagine, but it's all part of the plan.

[Mother: I am sending these images to show that he has woken up, everything will go according to plan, I will continue to give him his hormones, since that could be dangerous if he ends up getting stronger by not having them, take his hormones and take them to the forest, leave them in a tree that I have marked with a leaf symbol on the branch, just like the plan, you have until 10:30 to leave the hormones] 4:13

Oh yeah, there's that plan, I take advantage and get an outfit, I change into my uniform, from Luna Nova, I've never stepped foot in a school before, it's the first time I've done this, the girls are still sleeping, I get the boxes with his hormones, from what I remember it's this box here with Estradiol Enanthate and these here are the syringe boxes, I check my mobile phone and it's still 9:34, so there's time. I go with the boxes in hands, I leave it inside a little bag, where I go with the directions, I see the outside and it's so good to breathe the fresh air, even if it's a little cold, I go with the broom to Arcturus landing exactly where the tree was and leave the little bag beside it, it's all according to what was planned. Then I fly back to the room and one of the girls woke up, Mirage, she was still a little sleepy.

"Huh? Good morning Brooke, you woke up very early today, what a miracle, you're the one who always sleeps until whenever you want" she said and I immediately answered.

"You know how it is, I decided to try to fix my schedule" I answer her, who still looks at me half sleepy.

"You've gained body, the hormones are working well, I didn't even notice how you've become more developed"

"Hey, Mirage, what's all this about?" I say embarrassed.

"The same old Brooke, all embarrassed, now I'm going to take a shower, do you want to come along?" She said teasingly and I nodded.

"Of course not Mirage!" I say embarrassed.

"I knew you were going to answer that Brooke, but don't forget about me, anything I'm waiting for you" She climbed her shirt showing her black panties, I went just trying to look away, I can't think about that kind of dirt right now, better I focus on the mission.

She closes the door afterwards and I breathe a relieved breath, now I have to start my plan, I will text my mum first, I have to report that everything is fine on the first day.

[Me: Nothing much on the first day, everything's ok, I left the hormones in place, now I'll try to socialize more with Diana, it seems that Brooke has a thing with Mirage, I believe they must be trying something, I hope they are not girlfriends, I don't touch this girl, anyway, I'm going now to Diana's room, I'll report what happens at the end of the day in a summarized way for you mum, when you wake up don't stop contacting me, love Maril] 9:49

I take a deep breath and block the mobile phone, I leave it in the drawer, so no one will notice, I start to go outside the room, through the corridors, they were pretty empty and I miss the mansion a little, it was almost like that, only with more luxury, several rooms and everything else, I don't know why mum decided to set the mansion on fire, it was so comfortable and beautiful.
I'm walking through the corridors, trying to remember a little of the map I had of Luna Nova, I think I'm going to do that now, do a little reconnaissance, it's good that at this time there's no one around, so I can enjoy the whole time at my own will, this must be the first floor, the one they call the floor of the simpler witches, the higher up is where the intermediate ones are, and then the high class ones, I imagine it must remind me of the mansion.

In the middle of this reconnaissance tour Maril ends up arriving at the canteen, where there were Hellene, Akko, Marianne and Diana, wearing training clothes and even a little sweaty, eating something...

It even seems that they came to me, but that's wonderful, this way things will be much easier for me, that's wonderful... Well now it's just walking to them and talking, I have to pretend to be very well Brooke, they soon notice me and I'm walking until I reach the table where the three of them were.

"Good morning sleepy Brooke, a miracle to see you up like dis in the morning" Hellene said.

"I'm just trying to make the most of the day" I say, trying to make a good impression.

"Very rare indeed, ye always stay up until two, three, even stay up all night playing videogames or programming on the computer, sae ye want tae train with us" Diana said and I just nodded.

"I can't even stand two minutes of walking, let alone training" Whew, I took a sentence that would be quite buyable.

"'as your chest grown Brooke? Now dat I noticed" Hellene said and I swear that was the worst, I forget how I have a little more in relation to her.

"It hurt a lot, but they're going, now I have the big fat honkers I wanted" Perfect, I'm managing to copy her manner of speaking well.

"Hmmmmm, it grows really fast, it's getting really 'ot, not for nothing" said McLaren who was slapped by Marianne.

"Hellene! More respect to Brooke" said Leclerc and I went on giggling, this is all a different and strange environment, no, this is not good, this is an environment I'm not part of, I can't have fun being like this.

"Lot of Resbreast I'd say" She even teased more, Diana's sister is kind of cute, taking another slap from the French girl, it seems these two already have something.

"Sae what are ye doing here now, Brooke?" Diana asks.

"I'm going to eat something, I was hungry, you know, besides that they want to go out in the city, take a walk, who knows also later play a little?" I'm saying this while looking at my cousin, so who knows I'll get closer to her who nods her head.

"Where are we going?" asks the Japanese woman, whose name I don't even remember.

"We can go fae a walk, but wait a minute... Do ye really want tae go out Brooke? Ye of all people?" Diana said a little suspicious and I forget how the damn thing is afraid to go out because of my mum.

"Ah I want to lose my fears, you know, so I can overcome them, not be traumatized, I have to face them" I try to speak in a convincing way and it ends up being a good thing, but seriously even I want to leave.

"Well then we'll all go out today, we'll walk around the city and then we'll eat at The Last Wednesday Society, Brooke has to know it, it's really cool to go there" said the Japanese girl and I just loved it, it seems that the plan of approaching Diana will start to work, I have to open more and more and maybe soon I'll attract her to the trap.

I even get a smile on my face, but strangely this conviviality is so good, I don't know why, but it's strangely comfortable, it makes me feel better, a little more alive, at the same time I can't let this temptation come over me, I serve my mother and that's what I have to fulfil very well, I'm not going to weaken my position.

In the abandoned factory...

POV Daryl:

I just woke up and I see that Maril did everything right, now we have to build everything so that the plan doesn't fail, I look at the screen, I notice that the boy ended up falling asleep, it seems that someone surrendered to prison, but I'll have to wake him up soon to do the application, so that everything will be fine, which I make sure to do by pressing the button of the sprinklers that are in captivity.

"Wake up! Wake up! Today is already a new day! Wake up!" I just see him getting all desperate, getting out of bed and soaking wet and I laugh a lot.

Then I take my broom, it's time to get the boy's medicine, he will have to take the girl juice, this way I keep him weaker until a girl, that's the useful of these things.
I go for the exit, I arrive until the point where I left the risk in the tree and well in the branch I could notice the bag tied by there, I extend the arm, I take the bag, now with the things that I wanted. I go back to the hideout, it seems that today the day will give a beautiful cold, it will be much worse for the boy that will be melting in all this heat hahaha. When I arrive at the hideout I prepare the syringe, I check the papers that he left and the recommended dosage is at least written down by him, less bad.
I take the tip of the needle, I aspire the liquid and prepare everything in the dose, now I go to the captivity, I enter there and I see him lying in fetal position.

"Good morning, good morning, shall we have our breakfast?" I say getting close to him with the syringe in hand.

"Let me inject, I know how to do it myself" he said and I shook my head in denial.

"No way kid, I'm not going to let you have a needle that can serve as a stabbing weapon in your hands, you can pull down your trousers that I'm going to inject into your buttocks and don't think to question" I tell him and incredibly he turns his back to me and goes to pull down his trousers,

"Get on with it, at least inject it properly and make sure you don't inject it into my vein, it could end up killing me" he said and I soon managed to put the needle inside and aspirated it nicely, at least he kept still.

"Stay still and cooperate, did you see how easy it was?" I say after injecting the medicine into him and taking the needle out, I even put a bandage over it.

"Until you know it for someone I've never seen doing it" he said.

"My sister was a doctor and I've seen her do this to my daughters, one of the useful things I learned from her was to apply injection, now I'll get your breakfast and behave yourself, because you know what the consequences are and wet like this only gets worse" I say intimidating him.

Then I leave the captivity, breathing relieved, he didn't try to stick that needle in me once, whew, I breathe calmly, this is a very high risk, but I can't take the risk of letting nature strengthen him, as long as he continues as a weak man it will be worth it, what's more now I just need to wait and see how things will be.

POV Narrator:

A great danger is around the girls, Brooke Hunter was kidnapped by the hands of Daryl and Maril who are planning something bigger that will involve Diana and may end up being worse than any of the many attempted attacks that have already come to pass, which will be very tense to discover the disguise behind Maril who managed to imitate very well the Englishwoman that at this moment is in a situation of extreme danger around her life.

See you, hostage witches...
