POV Narrator:
Saturday 14 December 2019, Leeds, England
In Luna Nova the girls progressed with another sound of Fluit An Neart getting ready to start the winter break, what Akko is even doing very well, with grades within the average, even good enough for her to take a nice breather that year, showing that she is at the level to be able to graduate, even with all the way Finnelan has been trying to put her down, since she ended up disturbing Kagari again losing the fear of the revelation coming from Diana when she said that it could be denied. In Appleton things started in a planning of a revolution there, to turn the school into something completely new and also change that past, since Andrew even called his friends to an important meeting for the future of the academy.
POV Andrew:
They are all around here in my basement, Frank, Thomas, Michael, Harry and Liam, we have been gathering at a table, they see over time learning to use magic, now we have to gather for something unprecedented I want to change this place, especially when I take the post of headmaster of Appleton, I know my father can grant me that contractually and so I will change everything so he doesn't really interfere, it will be the best change, so much so that I show it on a board for them.
"And this here guys, this here is what I want for the future of Appleton, put the rotten past aside for a new brighter future" I tell them.
"Woahhhhhhhh, you mean you want us to have magic lessons? Are we going to be able to be witches more freely? How do you plan all this?" Frank asks.
"I am going to become the headmaster here, especially when I graduate, I am going to start new times in Appleton, it is not fair that we witches cannot exist and form a society too, there are no laws that forbid us from that, because of that I am going to change the law so that we can have an apprenticeship in magic here, I am going to turn Appleton into the first academy of magic for witches in the world after so many years, I am going to include everyone here" I tell them that they are loving the idea and soon Michael raises his hand.
"I don't want to be pessimistic, but the guys here will not accept this, Louis' father has a part of the shares here, not to mention the others, your father is the one who has the biggest portion with 40% of Appleton, but the rest is still divided, you have to know how to take these shares, it is not like your father will not put his hand in everything, how do you intend to take everything?" He said and I show him another part of the plan.
"I still haven't found a way to find my mother, but I will take it to court, I want my father to pay for the crimes he committed in the past, his involvement with Diana's aunt, what he did with my mother and many other things, now I know her name, Eleanora Maria White, all that's left is to find her, outside we have to put some faith in them... The witches will be our allies in this fight, they are wanting to cause a revolution, according to what Diana's mother has been planning, if we manage to organize ourselves, we will take Appleton for ourselves too, or at least start in a new place, for me it doesn't matter, I just want to make a reality that witches can exist and be part of the society, even if takingAppleton doesn't work, I will use my money to create the new academy of witchcraft... Anyway, are you with me? You will be the new teachers there, know that you will have a much bigger importance than mine" I tell them holding their hands and see Frank and Thomas supporting me.
Liam comes and he also gives his hand, then Harry, but Michael is still a little reluctant, this guy is really stubborn, but cute at the same time, until I give him a smile and he gets a little blush and ends up putting his hand.
"Know that this is too miraculous Andrew, it is not that easy to achieve this, if your father finds out you will never see the light of day again, even though you are already 19 years old" Michael said.
"Oh Mike, I don't give a shit what he thinks, I'm a free man, I know that soon the witch revolution will happen, we'll just need support, so the plan will start with us calling a few more kids to our magic class club, but hiding it in an RPG, so my dad will never suspect" I tell him.
"Do you think this group won't flop? And what if Louis shows up? He could ruin everything, tell your father and everything else, we have to be careful, because any effort will be in vain, I don't want to lose you friend" He said and I put my hand on my shoulder.
"I will be very careful with everything, besides when Appleton is finally taken, I will finally free a lot of people from the wardrobe around here, I know there are a lot of gay people here who are in the wardrobe, I have caught myself with a lot of them here" I say making Michael kind of roll his eyes.
"OK, we don't need to know how many guys you've sucked off, now let's get down to the details of this plan, how do you intend to run the school after all this, how will it work? How will we be the teachers? And how will they approve us as such? You know the Council of Magic won't give us a license unless we study magic and the academies of witchcraft don't have any witches studying there" he asked.
"Laura McLaren has made sure that our licenses as teachers of magic will be granted if this happens, I'm sure, but you can choose the subjects you want to teach, we will have the approval of the witches, and the school will work, just trust me, I've come to leave everything prepared, we just need to get organized, we will start gathering and calling more people, and our specializations and diplomas can make it possible" I say to them.
"Man I can't wait for this, are we going to have wicked witch uniforms too? I really wanted those fancy clothes, those suits are stylish too, but imagine how cool a wizard uniform is, dressing like one, they'll respect us a lot" Frank said and I nodded.
I show the uniforms, they were courtesy of Merrill Cavendish who designed for me the style that will be, it will still pass the aura of seriousness, I loved the black one, but with details and bands with the school colours, mainly with the new apple logo, it will be really a beauty, I'll ask her to make all of them, this one for the headmaster was cool, I'll show the teachers' ones later, the boys are liking it, at least Michael didn't turn his eyes so much, at last the students', where I still wanted to keep a little of the suits, the more to not leave formality aside, but with more comfort, so the students don't need to toast inside the clothes, we even had a feminine version of everything that I was showing them that gave a little strange.
"Hey, are you going to call witches too?" Michael asks.
"They'll just be female teachers, but that's mostly an add-on for whoever wants to look the way they want, give a little bit of spice to femboy students around here, after all clothes don't define the gender of students..." I say at the same time Michael interrupts me.
"You really want a femboy Twink don't you Andy? Can't resist one I know" He said and I just went about keeping in shape.
"I don't know what you're talking about" I keep pretending, but I confirm that I can't resist.
"Come by the room later, I'll be wearing that sock you like" he said teasingly.
I was just kind of not letting myself get distracted, showing more of how Appleton would be in the future, my cousin's help has been essential, she who understands fashion well and can also draw well, gee it's really good that she redeemed herself for the better with all of this, I hope Maril has also improved, until then we have no idea what she's been doing in the States, even more starting over with so little money, there must be something there.
Anyway, I am too anxious for the witches' revolution, even for us it will benefit, I hope that one day I can be a great witch in the future, I can tell future generations that I made it and also, they, we will be in the history of this new part.
In Luna Nova, looking far away...
POV Louis:
Man that sucks, I'll have to leave here again, another weekend without drinking to have to take a look at the habits of these damned, well at least I can note here the behaviors, but there is nothing interesting, they barely left, from what I could see from time to time the target goes up Cavendish's room, but sometimes stays in hers, the two sleep together some nights, after doing things.
"You have one week Blackwell" Said a voice in my ear and I quickly turn around, well in the daytime he appears, what do you mean? What a thing, now yes I am afraid.
"What do you want with me? I'm doing what you say, I've seen their habits, there's not much difference since I came last week, or when I took notes from the others counting, I'm trying what I can, you can't not stop picking up my foot, I'll do the mission is cool" I say a little annoyed, he always disturbs my peace.
"Oh be calm Louis, I know you are doing everything, I just don't have the confidence that you are really going to do it, look what amateurism, anyone can look at you from here, do you really want to capture Atsuko Kagari? Well do it right, you stand there looking through those binoculars, if the sun hits you have no way to look, I gave you access to Ley's line and even so you do a job with a huge incompetence" he said to me.
"Nobody discovered me until today, it was the best hiding place right in front of the windows, you can see everything I can, and I can use my magic to improve the vision of the binoculars, anyway, what do you want with me?" I ask him.
"I just want to see how the mission is going, but I also want to talk about something important, you can't fail in this mission or I will have to take drastic measures, you know that if you fail you can go to prison, and in prison you won't be safe, they won't send you to the common prison, they will send you to Arcturus prison, you will commit a magical crime, so be careful, there is no male prisoner there, the biggest risk you can take is that things will happen there, don't fail or you won't be in this situation" He said and I already understand the seriousness.
"I won't talk and I won't be stupid enough to be arrested, this is too stupid, seriously, how can I fail like this, no one will catch me, anyway, you will see how I am someone honorable and up to the job of participating in The Council" I tell him and then disappear into thin air.
What a boring guy, seriously, he always knows where I am, always watching, I'll never get peace, but I know that everything will be worth it, then I'll have power in hands, I'll be a member of The Council and I'll be the most based guy of all, everyone will be looking at me with a huge admiration, I'll have the adoration of the whole world for who I am.
Not to mention if the plan goes right and everything, I'll lead, I know they think I'm a sucker who's just doing it to gain favors, but in reality I'll take it for myself, as soon as I enter the Council I'll show that I'm not a mere servant, they will bow down to me, especially the boss, he will understand what my power really is.
"You may have escaped in Appleton that day, but now you will not escape my hands anymore, I will make sure to bring you to us and you will be judged as a witch, didn't you want to be a witch? Now the most flawed witch will be a real witch and judged as such" I say looking at Cavendish's room, where the target is always present.
She's not an ugly asiatica, but I prefer Cavendish, she's what gives a real desire, a full-blooded witch, it must be wonderful, imagine how it must be under those clothes, Kagari is really lucky for the girlfriend she has, even I would become a lesbian for one of those, a big woman that enhances my desires, it burns me inside, I hate the fact of being a witch, but this one I'd forgive to torture to take my bed, soon... Soon I can use her little girlfriend as a bargaining chip.
POV Narrator:
Louis went on the hide observing Akko's activity, with the kidnapping attempt he plans to make, already in Appleton in a well hidden place, there was The Council meeting, they were with Mary, putting her in a chair, waiting for the presence of the boss that soon arrives there, it doesn't take long and everyone starts to be intimidated by the presence of the witch, even without knowing who she was.
"Boss, you finally came, I wanted to say that we will finally be able to do what you so wanted to do to her" Said one of the members.
"If you allow me I will make sure to do it on my own it is a delicate process for our future attack on Luna Nova, she will be an essential piece for this, everyone will be traumatized seeing her like that" said the boss to them that are going to leave the room.
In this the boss even uses a spell, this one inhibiting all sounds and any attempt of vision by The Council members after taking them out of that room, which she takes off Mary's blindfold and also a gag that was in the girl's mouth, as well as lowering her hood, revealing who she was, which scared the girl a lot.
"You... You're a witch, you're a woman... You're being led by a woman! She's a witch! She's a witch!" She tries to scream but the boss keeps laughing at it all, at the same time Mary kept spending her voice.
"It's no use, I used a spell to inhibit the sound, they'll never hear you from here, yes I am a witch, but you must not have recognised me yet, which is good, but this will be your last memory before I erase everything" The boss still makes a point of putting on glasses to further remind Mary of who she must be behind the identity, which causes the girl to go into shock.
"It can't be... You are ..." Just as she was about to complete the sentence, the boss puts a gag in Mary's mouth, she would not be able to pronounce the name of the boss who even keeps laughing.
"You'll be quiet and you won't remember anything after that, it'll give you a good fry on your head, but you'll be useful, who knows so we can use you in a way so you'll be of great use" The boss was lowering the helmet to Mary's head.
She pulled the lever, which was giving a shock, making that image very visible to Mary, she was crying, trying to scream, but nothing she could do, all she would remember was nothing about her life or what happened, she was feeling the pain and the boss herself smiling there, until she puts the hood back on hiding her identity, since it's just a dark one with the glow of her eyes underneath it all with a voice that sounded even a bit robotic.
"And now it's over, you're going into the renewal process, what's your name?" The boss asks Mary who is still recovering from the whole thing.
"What is my name?" She asks, which left her rather forgetful in a short time.
"Perfect, your name is "The Creature" from now on, your mission will be to take revenge on those who hurt you, it's these people" Said the boss who was starting to show pictures of Diana, Akko, Marianne, Hellene, Lotte, Sucy, Amanda, Constanze, Jasminka, Annabel, Mirage, Brooke, Jeanne, Avery, Blair, Chariot and Laura McLaren, as a way for her to understand that they are targets.
"What do I do with them?" Mary half lobotomised asks.
"You're going to get revenge because they hurt you, look at that" Said the boss who went placing a television right in front of Mary.
Simply the boss shows a fully edited video of all the tortures she suffered in the hands of The Council Revival only this time with the faces and appearances changed by the girls from Luna Nova, leaving her full of hate, since even with the memories erased she was remembering that distorted way seeing the girls committing atrocities and getting her head hurting, so much that the boss was removing the gag to make her scream.
"No! No! No! No! What have they done! Ahhhhhhhhh! No!" she said, startled, beginning to remember things, but in a distorted way.
"You have to trust who's on your side" And the boss made sure to show edited videos of her friends only with The Council members being nice to her, showing affection and care, which was messing with Mary's head more.
"Get it out of here! I don't want to remember this! Ahhhhhhhhhh" At the time the boss was forcing Mary to see everything with magic, she was getting her eyes stared at, screaming in pain.
"They are friends, they are here to help you" Said the boss forcing it on Mary's head.
The boss went on for a good few minutes putting that into Mary's head, manipulating her and then eventually releasing her, which she was already feeling worn out, she leaves the room and sees the members of The Council who were just waiting anxiously for her decision, not knowing what happened inside and not even how her identity was revealed.
"What's up? Did it work?" asks one of them.
"It went quite well, but you need to change the approach with the creature, from today she is called the creature and we also have to give an affectionate attention to the girl, so that she understands that we are the side of good, I'm imposing that she understands the witches' side as evil, putting all the torture we did to her as something done by her friends, which will be perfect for her to attack the witches afterwards and they will be very confused" Said the boss and they will understand.
"So now no more torturing, let's pretend to be good people, good all for the plan" The council leader said.
"It's going to be a joke, but I'm sure the results will be good" said the other.
"Of course they will, you will train her to attack Luna Nova offensively, give her offensive training that she will be able to cause a lot of damage on the day she shows up armed and Luna Nova will face the biggest
massacre in history which you guys from The Council will never take the blame for, but the girl will" said the boss.
"Interesting, we have a perfect weapon in hand and we're not going to get blood on our hands" said the other.
"You understand now, everything will go according to plan" said the boss.
"And Louis? What do we do with him? Do you think he'll really accomplish the mission you gave him?" asks the leader of The Council.
"I doubt it very much, he won't be able to accomplish anything, in fact I am sure that he will even be arrested, I don't trust him, but the good thing is that if he succeeds we will have one more to go with the creature" said The Boss to them.
"You're right, that Louis is the class clown, he would be a disgrace to The Council" Said one of the members.
Then the boss again comes back inside where Mary was half lying in a fetal position, she crouches down in front of her and stares at her in a caring way, which she is still scared of, but she goes on feeling something magical in her own body, this goes to be precisely the strands of hair growing back and getting long again, which the boss shows to the girl in the mirror who can finally see herself.
"My hair... It came back... How wonderful!" she said, all smiles.
"We will treat you with even more affection, we will help you get revenge on these people, are you ready to train and shoot them down?" The boss was already starting to take part in the manipulation and a smile came from the girl.
"I want them to pay for this, they took everything from me, now I will take everything from them" she said with clenched fists.
"Come with us and we will give you that revenge" The other members of The Council arrived at Mary's side and went along welcoming her too.
The same was getting calmer and relieved feeling a comfort where she was taken to a room where there was an open corridor and there she was given a pistol, from there some plates stood up and Mary shot one that was with Akko, hitting it right in the head, giving to notice the expression of anger from Brooks, who was wanting vigilance.
"That's what we wanted, keep shooting well like that and soon we will release you to take revenge" said the leader of The Council.
"I will destroy them one by one, they will feel the power of my revenge, they took everything from me!" Said the aggressive Mary who kept shooting at the targets, she still missed a lot, but she shot without hesitation.
From there the boss went away, kind of disappearing into the world, after having made the unraveling in Mary Brooks' head, who was continuing her shooting training, learning how to hit the targets with precision, still in the basics of the basics, what could be a big threat that will come to Luna Nova, and could make things much worse, she was willing to perform a massacre in Luna Nova and cause the worst, what the girls don't expect that will happen, even more that they are in the worry of finding Mary, who will be excited to meet, but for another reason.
Meanwhile upstairs in Appleton Andrew was coming into Michael's room after the meeting talking about how the plan to change Appleton and turn it into a magic school would be, giving some good fruits that are coming to the fuuro of the academy, but on the other hand it seems that the members of The Council are willing to cause the worst.
POV Andrew:
Wow, now I like it, Michael is much more irresistible when he's not in a suit and dressed like Femboy, he's too beautiful, I can't resist, I'm getting closer to him, teasing him, I start kissing him, his lips are so soft, his skin is so well cared for, seriously Mike is so cute, we keep moving until he lays down on top of us.
"So Andy, do you really think your plan will work? Not that I don't think you won't succeed, it's just that I don't know, it seems like a complicated thing, I was doubting you, but it's because I really care, I know it can be frustrating if the plan goes wrong" Mike said.
"That may be, but I know it will work out, you have no idea how big this witches' revolution is, Mrs. McLaren has been planning it for over 30 years, I'm sure she's aware of that, she said she will never exclude witches from it and that we are a vital part, since if we also exist the society can accept these new and better times" I tell him while stroking his soft and smooth little face.
"If these better times let me be a gay witch I'll take it, even more if it's with you, my father really won't like that, you better be very careful, because we are treading on eggshells around here" Michael said and I know it.
"He doesn't even know I'm gay, but I really wish I could be freer for it, you know, I didn't want to be Paul's son, sometimes I feel a bit trapped by the expectations of a Hanbridge, I'm jealous of my cousin Diana, she just acts all cool, she changed everything, she's free today, she doesn't have the responsibilities of a Cavendish, but she's still one, she changed what they thought of her, even if the aristocracy sees it negatively it's different, she's well accepted" I tell him who understands and caresses me.
"It seems that the prince can't get out of his castle, I really don't understand these problems of rich people..." He said as I lay on his chest, noticing that it was even a little soft.
Right on cue Frank enters the room, he was holding a few bottles of beer in his hand as well as Thomas too, right at my moment with my Boy they show up, what the hell... Well it won't be tonight that I take him with me for a more intense night.
"I brought the drinks, put a FIFA on there Mike... Mike, you look so cool in your socks, Andy loves it" said Frank entering the room.
"Oh Michael, why these colours? Are you trans by any chance?" Said Thomas and I noticed now, I'm not even aware of it.
A silence took over Michael, he seemed very embarrassed, which is strange, his voice has always been very thick, and he's kind of tall, I wonder if he really is, what I could see was just him getting a little embarrassed and nodding his head.
"Sorry to deceive you Andy... Yes I am... I was born that way" he said and I just shrugged.
"He was born as a handsome twink, I think it's too cool man, I've never kissed or gone out with a trans man before, for everything there's a first time, gee Mike I've never really noticed this" I say impressed.
"No one notices, I've changed thanks to the Witch Act, it allows me to change my identity as I've been a witch before, I can change the gender and name brand, I thank Victoria McLaren for that, but sorry, I didn't want to cheat you out of having undesirable parts" He said and I just hugged him, along with all of us.
"I'm gay, I like men, not a thing they have between their legs, that's irrelevant to me when I love what's here and here, and here everything" I say pointing to the heart, head and then all of Michael.
"Gee we never realised this, Appleton actually accepted a trans student around here without knowing it" Frank said.
"I'm pretty passable I would say, but I still have these things, even if it's a little breast, I want one day to be able to take them out, but I also want one day to be a father, you know... It's a lot of things" he said and I went on hugging him.
"Mike, you can let me help you make your dreams come true, by the way, it would be an honour to be the father of our children" I say to him making my man smiling.
"Hey there! FinallyAndrew, you've come to your senses and got in someone's face" Frank said.
"Kiss!" Thomas said and we did.
It was even a kiss of relief, I think I can let go of my pickup phase for a bit, I want to enjoy time with someone nice like him, it must be nice, Mike is a cutie, he was even feeling all happy about it all, how cute, the cutest man he has.
POV Narrator:
In Appleton things are rolling along, a plan to change even among men to make witches more visible in a world where using magic is seen as something exclusive to women save for the rare cases of men who are witches, but that is starting to spread more if the witch revolution happens, being only a matter of time, but the concerns around everything still exists, even more with threats like Louis and The Council's weapon, which is Mary after being lobotomized to become the creature.
See you, gay wizards...

Frank is a very extrovert boy with an open heart, he always listens to everyone around him, even more so because he gets interested in everything he hears, especially around witches, since his mother was a student of Luna Nova and used to tell some stories, but she was never one to tell so much because of the influence of her husband who is not close to these things, although even so she taught Frank a little bit of the basics of hidden magic.
