Valencia Finale {MY AU} PT.2

-

She looked awful.

cuts and bruises, she looked exhausted.

"Its okay, were getting out of here." Ruko said, helping her stand.

"Theres a backway out from here" A girl spoke form behind us. We satyed silent as we followed and nodded thank you once we escaped.

"Okay, lets get out of this god forsaken world." Maddie heaved and we all Began to run again. Eventually we reached the spiral door and stopped in our tracks. Catching our breath we looked at each other silently. A small smile creeped on my face and hugged both Maddie and Adam tightly before pulling away and stepping away, "Alright lets go-"

"Lena look out-!"

A sound of flesh cutting and a feeling of cool metal flooded through my body as the world stood still.

My eyes widened.

Adam's heart shattered.

looking down, a long spear had pierced through my abdomen, only for it dissolve. I sank to my knees and fell over before I was overtaken by darkness.

~

I feel calm.

I hear muffled voices over me, I feel my body being shaken, but my eyes refuse to open.

I’m falling, falling, falling.

A warm feeling spreads through my body and for a split second, I think I felt a stab of pain in my abdomen. The voices fade away, until only one voice remains. Who is it? Who’s voice is this? I feel my brow crease, who is talking to me?

“Please babygirl, don’t leave me like this sweetheart.”

Sweetheart.

Who calls me sweetheart?

Adam!

Adam calls me sweetheart..

I feel my mouth open to speak, but I simply don’t have the energy to vocalize the words in my head. So many questions. Why can’t I open my eyes, why do I feel a warm spot in my abdomen, why did I feel pain, why was he freaking out? The questions pile and pile until everything crumbles down when I hear another voice pierce through his own begging,

“Adam.. she’s going to die.”

It was a girls voice.. who’s voice is that? Maddie? Was that Maddie? My head is too fuzzy to attach names to voices. Everything going on is confusing me.

Am I dying?

That has to be what’s going on.

I’m scared, I can’t die... Out of the four of us I surely can’t be first. I’m the youngest, why are my team members having to bury me first? This is so wrong, so unfair... we should all be going together not separate.

They’re going to cry, they’re going to hurt.

Adam’s going to cry.

Adam’s going to hurt.

And I don’t want him to do either.

I’m fighting, I’m desperately fighting for each breath I’m taking. To open my eyes. To live. To breathe. To see tomorrow. At first I thought it was working, until the searing pain from my abdomen began again, that only made me slip further into unconsciousness. Within this state of drifting I swore I began to feel my soul being pulled to the spirit realm. To join my sisters.

But I don’t want to.

I don’t want to join my sisters.

But I guess it’s no use.

My head becomes extremely fuzzy, the voices muffle as I feel my lungs release air one last time. The muffled voices are muffled cries as I’m vigorously shaken. However, amongst all the chaos I vaguely knew was going on in the real world. I felt my soul feel something incredible. The voices seized and my eyes shot open, not to see the sky above..

Free.

My soul felt free.

Valencia Finale {MY AU} PT.1

Lena

-----

I have heard horror stories of people losing their loved ones in such horrendous ways that it doesn't seem like that its reality. I've heard stories of people being pushed to the extreme if it meant saving their loved ones. I never thought id have to go to that many extremes or have to suffer that much.

Oh, how life loves to be a cruel god.

I was alone in the room, except two people stood in front of me. Two people, I knew very well.

Maddie and Adam.

On the left was Madeline. She looked so drained and bruised, her breathing looked ragged, as if the spiral was just crushing her to pieces. On my right was Adam, he was restrained, but constantly struggling.

"Lena please think logically! You know what you have to do."

Right.

I have a choice to make

"To save Maddie, you have to kill Adam."

The predicament runs through my mind, I feel like everything is caving in on me, I just want to curl into a small ball, replay all the happy memories I have and how all of us were the best team to exist and how the hell can I just make a choice this-

"Lena don't stress it."

I turn around and see Ruko standing behind me. his face is stern but is laced with anger and pain. Just from his eyes, I can tell his sights are set on Madeline. What was he planning? He walked up and whispered into my ear,

"We will all live to fight this another day. reject the offer."

He seriously was going to compromise both of them? It, it didn't feel right. Then again, Ruko always has a method to his madness and is usually right in his intuition. reluctantly, the words came from my mouth,

"Thanks but no thanks. Keep them."

Adams' eyes widened.

My heart shattered.

"Oh? You sure that is your choice?" I heard Kane say. the mechanical voice sent chills down my spine, who thought a thaumaturgist could get chills,

"It is."

"Very well then," He spoke, "Escort them out, and bring the sorceress and divinator to me." I wanted to run back and fight so badly, I could only imagine the pain running through Maddie and what would happen to Adam. But Ruko was right.

Live to fight another day.

~2 Months Later~

"Come on Lena get up." I was vigorously shaken awake and sat up yawning. My expression was black as I looked up to see who had woken me.

It was Ruko.

"I'm up. I'm up. What's with the sudden rush?"

He tossed over my staff and picked up his sword, "Were taking down Kane today, I can't take it anymore. Lena, I lost Maddie now twice to an enemy. I woke up in a cold sweat because I swore I saw her dead. I can't bear to live knowing she's hurting. We're going after her and Adam."

We were what now?

"Are you sure we can win this fight? Just us two? He is super powerful."

Ruko sighed, "I honestly don't know, but I sure as hell will try." He looked over, "Are you ready Lena?"

I exhaled as I finished putting on my coat,

"I'm as ready as I'll ever be."

~

When we arrived at the building the eerieness radiated off of everything. This was it, the point of no return. This was our true curtain call. I'm not sure I'm ready for any of this.

Who am I kidding?

I have to be ready.

"Let's go, no use dwelling on the thought." I quickly let out and march straight into the building, Ruko close on my heels. Armada soldiers tried to get close, but they were only deflected easily by Ruko. We never even stopped walking until at the top, Kane's back to us.

"You know, you type of specimens are so predictable. I'm guessing your here to end me and regain your significant other? Valiant is the proper word yes? Too bad it'll be in vain." He huffed and turned. Immediately, Ruko and I went on the defensive.

"If you can shield me, I can deal a lot of damage to him," I mutter to Ruko, "My Ice can weather down his metal."

"Got it."

A second of silence fell before I darted forward. Kane was totally unexpectant of my attack. Ruko placed a doom and gloom on the entire room, creating dark scene over everyone. Within it all, perhaps my heart darkened a bit more.

The fight was quicker than I thought, Kane talked a bigger game than he could put forward and eventually I delivering the final blow, "You're nothing without your pawns. Checkmate." Ruko spat from the back of the room.

From there we ran out and down, looking for Maddie and Adam. Where were they? "Maddie! Adam!" I yelled out,

"Is anyone down here!" Ruko called, going down a set of stairs that led to a dark corridor. I stayed up top and continued searching until I heard something from below,

"We're down here! Fuck one of you guys get down here quickly, please!" It was Adam's voice. I rushed down the stairs, taking two steps at a time. At the bottom, I ran down the corridor almost faster than Ruko. IT was seconds before he spoke,

"Oh shit, Oh fuck Maddie."

Oh no.

I dropped to my knees as I reached Adam and began to examine him. He didnt look beaten or worn out, just chained, "I was so worried." I peppered his face with kisses smiling, my face dropped however when I looked at Maddie.

She looked awful.

**Special Scene (World Story TBD.)

Ruko (Age 12.)

——————

“What do you feel Hone no shōnen?”

I can’t... feel anything.

“Nothing.”

The room is dark and cold, I sit in the middle cross-cross, my father in front of me. In the palm of his hand, a sigil is hovering. I stare at it as I reflects grayness across the entire dojo.

“Good, remember this emptiness, this coldness, this voidness. Nothing good comes from feeling for yourself, or for others.”

Nothing good..

Nothing good..

“Yes father, I understand.” Was my solemn reply. Wether this void inside of me is a good or bad thing, I’m not quite sure, my mind cannot process the difference emotionally. In my family’s eyes, thats a good thing.

I take it this is a good thing.

“Amazing my Hone no shōnen.” My father looked at me, a monotonous expression lined his face. This is how my life is supposed to be. As the doom and gloom fades, I’m left in the dojo alone, my mother walking in and staring at me from afar. She glances my way briefly before walking off in another direction. My curiosity got the best of me however, and I followed.

My steps eventually halted when I saw my mother and father in their bedroom.

“Ruriko! The boy is too young to endure this training! Please stop it while he still has his innocence of youth..” I heard my mother beg. My father did not like this sentiment apparently as he replied,

“The boy is 12 Yui! He’s perfectly ok with going through the training Yokawnes do not display emotion in the line of work and you know this! He will only marry for offspring just like you and me!”

“But what if I don’t want him to simply marry to carry on a title Ruriko?! What if I want to find a beautiful young lady that Ruko would love to pieces!? What then?!”

My father stiffened, “He will never find a lady like that.”

*”a beautiful young lady Ruko would love to pieces?”*

...(present day)...

*Ruko*

*Ruko*

“Ruko.”

My eyes shot open and I flipped over in bed. A pair of golden brown eyes met mine. Maddie had a look of slight concern written on her face,

“Huh? What... is something up?” I asked.

“You were mumbling in your sleep and stiffening, I thought you may be having some unpleasant dreams and wanted to wake you up.” Her voice was so soft, like clouds almost..

*a beautiful young lady id love to pieces... huh?*

I sure did find her.

And I didn’t want to lose her, not to any other guy at least.

Pulling her closer, my head buried in her neck, causing a help of confusion the emerge from her, “Eep! What... are you doing?”

“Maddie... I want to feel... I want to feel whole.” I looked up at her dead in the eyes, “With you..” I heard a sharp inhale of breath as I gently flipped us over to where I hovered over her. She looked so flush and red, so beautiful. I loved her to pieces..

“Do you think your ready?” I asked, leaning in a little bit. I saw the little cogwheels turn in her head before the smallest form of a nod shows dup. That’s unacceptable, I had more mind for respect than that. I needed her words.

“Words Maddie.. I need your words.”

“I... Yes... I’m ready..” ah let out quietly, causing a grin to form on my face. This was the point in life father never thought I’d obtain.

“I see how it is,” I smiled and went back into the crevice of her neck, “Prepare yourself Madeline to be with me forever,” I breathed.

“I going to ruin you for any other man.”

I heard her inhale.

“Steal me away.”

Excerpt for Valencia World Story:

-Post Emperya Pt.1&2-

Adam

———

You know, being from Marleybone and all, I thought I had seen all the steampunk there was in spiral. But this,

I never expected this.

The four of us stood still as Maddie looked somberly out into the grey clouds surrounded by mechanical madness. When Madeline said her home was very much clockwork, at first I thought she exaggerating.

Boy was I wrong.

A voice interrupted my thoughts, “So... This is my home.” Maddie turned and looked at all of us. I couldn’t decipher exactly what her expression read as, but I could tell she was not happy to be home.

“Maddie? Is something up?” Lena asked, clutching her staff slightly close to herself. Her question caused Maddie to gaze off, “Uhm.. When I left initially, I...” She paused,

“I never planned on returning.” She bit her lip. After a few moments of silence, she spoke up again, “I’m guessing you’d like to know why Valencia is the way it is. You see, Valencia wasn’t always like this, it certainly wasn’t like this when I was a child. Back then, things were different. Everyone lived in peace, pursuing knowledge and advancing society like normal. That was, until one human man created a man, a man of gears. He named him Kane. Kane was initially for good, improving errors in mechanics, but his pursuit of making things perfect was what eventually led him to overthrow our government and started making his own mechanically perfect army. He named it the Armada, it slowly started enveloping the rest of the world. This Armada went and captured every village, slaughtering and imprisoning any who posed threat, including those who possessed or practiced magic. That’s where, my family comes in..”

I felt her stiffen and look down, Ruko places a hand on her shoulder, symbolizing that it was okay for her to continue. She looked up,

“My family was renowned for being wizards in Valencia, primarily, the dominant family that practiced balance magic. Valjeans begin learning magic when they turn 5, that’s why when I came to Ravenwood I already knew so much.” She paused again,

“But I’m going off a tangent. To continue, the Armada and Kane caught wind of our family and rather like the others calling for deaths. He wanted to imprison us and force us to use magic to feed into his messed up creations. Before the Armada invaded our household, my mom and dad snuck me to the spiral door and sent me off to Ravenwood. Being the youngest, they told me I was too young to live the life of a slave essentially. After leaving, I promised that I’d never return.” She sighed.

After letting that information sunk in, Ruko spoke up, “Maddie, When you became stronger, why didn’t you just go for them?”

“Because Ruko, Kane doesn’t value life like you and me. Once he used them, he probably killed them. Meaning I’m the only Balance wizard in Valencia as we speak. Meaning he’s probably after me so he can use and kill me.”

“Oh.”

Maddie nodded. We all stood there in our own somberness after hearing her exposition. For a while, it seemed comforting, until I felt the hairs on my neck stick up. Something electrically conductible was near. My head shot up and noticed a group of guards, who I supposed were Armada were quickly approaching, they seemed after Maddie.

“MADDIE OUT OF THE WAY!” I yelled quickly before pulling out my pistol and spell deck, firing quickly, I shot down all the guards.

Being a divinator is awesome.

We all star wide eyed as the adrenaline from our bodies begin to decrease. We all look at each other, and then my gaze shifts over to Maddie’s.

Poor girl looks like she’s going to mentally breakdown.

In the minutes it takes for us to calm down, Ruko rushes to her, rubbing her shoulders gently, whispering what I could assume soothing words into her ear. Who would of thought, something that happened when she was 18 was effecting her when she’s now 28. Man, trauma is a bitch.

Lena walks over to my side and I envelop her in a big hug. She too, looked a little frightened, but she was finicky to begin with. I pat her head softly and I stare at Ruko, a mutual wave of understanding passing over both of us.

The girls come first, protect the girls.

[wizwriting101]

Excerpt from Wysteria World Story (inspired by Save The Spiral’s astounding Headcanon.):

Ruko

———

No no no no no no no.

This can’t be happening.

This can’t be happening.

My eyes are wide with shock as looked at the lifeless form in front of me. I heard gasps and tears as many stared in fear at what I had just done. This was supposed to be a regular match, just a tournament.

But today I just killed a fucking innocent person.

Under any circumstance this wouldn’t hurt as bad, if it wasn’t for Maddie, Lena, and Adam’s expressions being equally wide eyed as everyone else observing. The had the same looks as everyone else. Everyone feared me.

Oh god, I’m a monster.

I didn’t completely register everything that happened as I was restrained by security, or police, or whatever. What I did notice was my team mates following closely behind. Out of the corner of my eye I saw the headmistress side eyeing me. I totally fucked up.

~

The four of us sat in the headmistress office as we waited for judgement to be cast on me. None of them tried to comfort me, what good would that do anyway? ‘Hey, sorry you killed an innocent student. But it’s okay, we’ll get through this.’ That would be more heartless than what I actually did.

Our silence was deafening.

The doors suddenly flung open, and all of us stood. Miss Belladona walked into the room, “Ah, so there is our student murderer.” I looked down in shame. None of this was supposed this way, it made me sick to my stomach.

“You have no need to explain yourself, you’re already excused.” I looked up in shock, so did everyone else. The head mistress fixed her hair and continued to talk,

“It’s common for necromancers to take an innocent in midst of their training. It’s symbolic of the power you truly hold. Although I wish it had been under better terms, there was nothing you could have done to have prevented this tragedy. Merle has been informed and to save PR wise, Ruko will be disqualified from the tournament, but Ravenwood will still participate. Someone must take his place. I exhaled.

This was so bittersweet.

Excerpt From Side Story (Time period of break between Emperya Pt.1 and Emperya Pt.2.):

Lena

———

I shouldn’t be here.

I shouldn’t be doing this.

It’s been five years.

Will he even care to see me?

Every wrong scenario went through my brain over and over and over and over again as I shapely raised my hand to knock on the door in front of me. I was about to knock, when the door opened for me. Stepping back I waited to see who would greet me. What I saw next shocked me.

It was him.

“H-Hi... Adam.” I shakily let out. He stared at me with a wonder, I could see his thoughts in his eyes. They were asking so many questions.

Was this real?

Was I real?

The awkward silence continued, in an attempt to diffuse it I began talking again, “I, Uhm... Came to ask for, uh... help.” My gaze drifted from him off to the side. This was not going at all as planned. Looking back and seeing him unfazed, I decided it was hopeless. I shook my head, “Never mind, sorry I bothered you.” I turned to walk away, only for a hand to grasp my wrist firmly.

It all happened so fast, first I was being pulled back over to him. Next, his lips were on my mine. My head was spinning, everything was happening too fast. He pulled away from me, but kept his hands firmly on my shoulders. Adam wore that goofy smile he always had, but there was an apparent blush and a look of desperation on his face.

“I... I let you walk away once. I don’t want you walking away again.” His words made my heart slam to a stop. He..

“It’s been five years Lena. Five years of me being a coward. I knew where you were and everything, but I just didn’t have the balls to go find you.” He leaned down, making eye contact with me, “I don’t want to be a coward anymore.” He stayed firmly.

I wasn’t expecting any of this, I was sent here to get Adam because Old Cob had taken Madeline, but Ruko had to take care of their fucking newborn child. I wasn’t expecting a proclamation of feelings. Five years..

Has time really evaded me that much?

“You... Look so different,” He started, “Less Lolita, hair pulled back. You look, more mature.” God this was both awesome and odd. Was this how Madeline and Ruko felt? I shook the thoughts from my head. Focus Lena!

“Adam.. While Im very glad to see you, and I do want to catch up, and talk about things because trust me I’ve got some feelings to work out too. I wish I was here for better circumstances.” I stood firm and replied to him, this was a serious time, he needed to grasp that.

He expression told me he did. He straightened up and nodded, a wave a mutual understanding going over us. We’d discuss our relationship later.

“Okay. What’s going on Lena? Why did you come here?”

I exhaled. Here we go, “I was called to a place called the Arcanum by Ruko. He was in a panic when I arrived. What I found out was that someone by the name of ‘Grandfather Spider’ or Old Cob, has resurfaced and is out to reclaim his heart. In light of him doing this, he uh, he took Madeline with him for a reason described to me as ‘the key.’ I was instructed to go stop him, but I can’t do it alone.” I paused, “I need you with me.”

Silence fell over us. At first I thought he was going to turn me down, but instead, he replied, “I’m in.”

I had the greatest sigh of relief after he said those words.

“Maddie’s in danger, apparently she’s a mother, and Ruko has gotta be a dad doing dad things. If they’ve been saving the spiral for five years, the least we can do you and me is give them a break.” His mouth tilted up in a smile.

“Yeah, you got that right.” I laughed.

“So, you ready?” He asked.

“Ready as I’ll ever be.”

[wizwriting101]

Excerpt From Dragonspyre World Story (Post-Final Battle.):

Ruko

———

My eyes shot open to see a white ceiling and a bright light shining in my face. I squinted as I let my eyes readjust to the abnormal light. This was odd.

Where was I?

I tried sitting up, only for a sharp pain in my abdomen to lay me back down. Fuck, that hurt like a bitch. Observing my surroundings, I noticed white curtains, weird medical spell books and medicines. Ah, I’m in an infirmary.

I was glad that I found out where I was, but when I moved my hand it brushed against something. An arm, hair? Someone was next to me, asleep. My hand continued to wander and touch this mystery person���s head, the hair was long, so it’s a female?

With my inability to sit up, I simply laid my hand on the person’s head in thanks. If they asleep next to me, they must us been observing me while I was unconscious. Minutes passed and suddenly, that head my hand was on stirred and sat up. I was immediately relieved to see who it was.

Madeline.

She’s okay.

Kind of.

Looking up at her, I saw bandages from cuts and saw deep bruises from the fight we just had to endure. Her eyes looked tired and were baggy, not did she wear a smile on her face. We won, why was she not smiling?

“Hey.” I spoke, my voice hoarse.

“Hey.” She replied.

We sat there in silence, just looking at each other. Again, it was me to initiate the conversation, “Madeline. What happened after I blacked out?” When asking this, I noticed her muscles stiffen and her gaze turn colder, did we win? I could have sworn we had-

“We won.” Her voice was soft, “But a lot has happened, you’ve been out cold for a week. I visit everyday, I just fell asleep here on accident.” She fell silent again. I didnt like when she did that, it was so unlike her.

“Here, help me sit up.” I spoke as I began pushing myself up. Almost instantly, she began to assist me, soon enough I was sitting, “Please, continue Maddie. I need to know what happened.”

She sighed and nodded, “Okay.. When you blacked out, the blast from the spell flung all of us away and down the stairs. It furthered injured Adam, Lena and I were the lucky ones and only had bruises. After the dust settled, I walked back up to the platform and saw you bloodied and unconscious. Lena and I managed to get you and Adam back to Cyrus and he teleported us all to the infirmary. They patched me and Lena up and worked on you and Adam.” She paused only to collect her thoughts, placing my hand on hers, I urged her to continue, “Uhm, your family came and visited a few times too, but once Adam was good enough to be released, his parents came and took him back to Marleybone. They unenrolled him from Ravenwood.”

“What?” I hadn’t realized my thoughts had actually been spoken until Maddie nodded,

“Yeah, that happened..”

“What about Lena? Where did she go? Certainly at least with Adam, right?” I was looking for some sort of hope, our team could not be falling apart. Madeline shook her head at my statement,

“She went back to Grizzleheim, although she told me they actually needed her help there. Something with the Ice Titan and keeping it at peace. She was very vague.” We both looked down in sadness. Seriously? This was how everything was supposed to turn out?

“So its just you and me left... huh?”

“Yeah, just you and me.” She looked up, “but they didn’t leave without saying goodbye. Adam really didn’t want to go, and Lena said she’d be back as soon as she could. I don’t think this is the end of our team. I think it’s just the beginning.”

“You got that right.” I said with a slight laugh. Always the optimist was Maddie. My hazel eyes met with her brown ones as we stared in a heavy quiet, but it didn’t last long as her arms flung around me. What’s, happening?

Hugging her back, I rubbed her back in circles as I began to hear her cry. Wether they were happy tears or not, I couldn’t tell. I just comforted her. These past few days had to have been hell for her, having no one to check up on her or need her. Little did she know-

“I was so worried.”

I completely froze. Is that why she?

It had to be.

Choosing my words carefully, I replied back to her, “No need, I’m not going anywhere.” I held her head closer to my chest. In the span of a week, she watched two people she cared for walk away.

I refused to be the third.

~

After around an hour of just hugging each other, Madeline eventually calmed down from her sobbing session. Her head was against my chest as we just sat there with each other. This felt intimate, I almost wanted to... stop it, Ruko. She’s your friend. You wouldn’t even be able to be with her.

Madeline looked up, “Something on your mind?” Her voice was so melodic, fuck that wasn’t helping. her eyes were so innocent and sweet, her cheeks were the perfect shade of pink, and her lips were the most beautiful shade of red. She was radiant, it wasn’t until now that I had truly looked at her that I saw exactly the beauty she possessed.

Fuck it, I don’t care anymore.

I looked down at her and cupped her face gently with one hand and brought her closer. Her expression was one of confusion until I just did it. I pressed my lips against hers firmly and enveloped her, I prayed she’d be responsive. A small smile creeped on my face when returned my advancement with the same softness and delicateness as before. This...

This felt right.

Being completely lost in the girl in front of me made me forget about the team, who cared? This connection resonated with my soul, it could be us against the entire spiral.

And I would go down smiling.

Excerpt From Marleybone Story:

Madeline

————

My thoughts were clouded as sat there on the roof in silence. It was the middle of the night and everyone had gone to sleep.

I couldn’t.

Call me obsessive or paranoid, but having Meowarity and Mallistaire on your mind causes you to be a nervous wreck every now and then. Repeatedly, I kept running the probabilities and strategies through my brain, how were we going to handle this? I’m the strategist, so I have to find out.

I was stuck deep in thought until the hairs on my neck stood up, someone is here. I quickly stood and got into a defensive position, only to see Lena standing at the door. She put her hands up,

“My apologies, I only came for fresh air.” Her voice was soft and she strolled out onto the roof with me. Sighing, I relaxed and returned to my sitting position on the random box i had found on the roof. Lena was still in her pajamas, how she wasn’t cold was beyond me.

Scratch that, she’s a tnermaturgist. The cold doesn’t bother her anyway.

Lena let out a long exhale as she gazed into the city lights, “This place is really something, Adam’s family was very generous to let us stay here. Especially seeing as were wizards, something they don’t like.”

I nodded at her statement, although it through one ear and exited another. I wasn’t trying to process small talk. I was trying to process my calculations. Lena, being the 16 now 17 year old genius psychic, took note of this.

“Is the only reason you’re not sleeping because you’re trying to figure out our best approach to defeating Meowiarty?” She asked, cocking her head.

Bullseye.

I looked up, “I- Yes, it is... Call me obsessive or whatever you need. The idea won’t leave me until I figure it out, what’s most difficult is we don’t know where we’re going to find him.”

Lena sat down next to me, “True, but me and the boys can’t be down a teammate! We need you rested and energized Madeline, and staying up excessively late is not the way to do that!” She stated sternly. Her tone made me laugh,

“Haha, watch your tone. Your the youngest remember?”

“Of course I remember, and now I’m 17! I’m almost an-“ I quickly covered her mouth without warning. Something was up, someone... else, was here. I shushed her and stood, summoning my spell book.

“Who’s there!” I call out to the shadows of buildings, I wouldn’t have notice anything had it not been for the slight movement out of the corner of my eye. I whipped my head in that direction to see a VERY familiar cat running away.

Meowiarty.

My eyes widened and put away my spell book, “Lena come on! We can’t let him get away, he’s heading for Big Ben!” I began to run that direction, Lena running and talking to me,

“Maddie! Shouldn’t we wake the boys!?”

“I’ll send a message later! Right now we need to act fast!” I replied.

I heard a groan and felt a cold rush of magic as Lena changed into her regular clothes. We continued running in pursuit of Meowiarty.

All the way to Big Ben.
