Chereads / The Wicked Magical Girl / Chapter 43 - Road Stories

Chapter 43 - Road Stories

The teenager portal from the top of the camper then rush up to Dorothy which scared everyone in it.

"What did I hear from up there?!" She spoke up to Dorothy while grabbing her hand.

Unknown to the teenager; Olivia back shirt hold with her Switchblade Wand pressing on the back; Makayla temple pressed with her Pistol Wand; and Abigail cast a fire cutlass from her Lantern Wand around the throat while avoiding the Pistol's direction.

She let go. "Sorry! I just wanted to know get what you're saying."

All three kept their position.

"Can your posse let me go? Please?" She asked.

Dorothy nods at them, thus let her go, but Olivia kept her Switchblade on her back.

"Question; how much did you hear from up there?" Olivia question her.

"Um... the whole thing." She awkwardly cackled.

"So you're gonna sell us out?" Pressing the knife up to her back.

"I won't do no such thing! But I will fight back, since you're quite threatening." She warns her.

"Let her go, Ollie." Dorothy ordered which she applies. "Tell me what are you planning on doing with the information you heard?"

"Nothing! I just wanted to say hi, and wanted to know if you're aiming at the..."

Both vehicles stop hard then the teenager flies over then ghost-like fly through the vehicles back into her car.

The mother walked out while pulling her teenage daughter on the ear. She wave them by, which Almira drive by them as they argue in the car.

"That was weird." Dorothy said to them all.

"Do Witches can go through walls?" Serena asked, but all four shaked her heads. "I thought so. Maybe a Salem Witch ability?"

"I doubt it." Olivia replies. "But if so, she could had learn it from another Witch's blood."

"But I haven't heard about such ability. Not from Layla either." Makayla chime in.

"Then it must be something they must had taught themselves. Mrs. Green had told me that Witches can learn new spells like the Picture Memory Spell." Dorothy looks back.

"Either way, we'll be meeting them at the Coven Meeting." Abigail said to them.

Phone rings again. Dorothy answered it. "Hello?"

"You kids are alright?" Marge talks.

"Yeah, just that girl just went flying through us."

"Oh, then it wasn't just us then. I thought having that stone cold tea was spiked."

Serena walked up to the phone. "You said it was La Llorona?"

"Correct."

Almira chime in. "Should had seen her when we first met her. Talk about annoying."

"She lost her children. Any woman would moan and wail after a lose." Serena said to them.

Almira groan. "I've heard her bitch and moan over 500 years till she finally move on. I don't think Devlin didn't scream that much across Ireland. At least she sends out a death threat to her murderees."

"You seem that you have an interesting history with her." Dorothy asked.

"Every time she murdered a woman or a child here and there, she start bitching about it."

"Then you're the shoulder to cry to type of woman?" Serena asked.

"No, I'm the bitch across the room that screams; shut the fuck up." Almira admits. "Marge here was the shoulder girl though."

"She does tend to cry a lot on my shoulder. Literally." Marge said.

Dorothy had a thought then spoke up. "That car stop was done by you two, did it?"

Phone hung up.

"Yeah, that's what I thought." Dorothy put away the phone. "Why bother hanging it up? I'm gonna ask them again in a couple of hours."

The rest shrugs their shoulders as they're prepared to sleep.

"Anyways, you should get some rest Master." Darien lays on her lap. "You had a very long day."

"Perhaps I should." Dorothy calmly pets him. Dorothy lays down then turn to her girls. "Everyone, time to..." Realized that they're all a bed. "See you in a couple of hours." She kiss Darien then pull Serena in for a kiss. She smiled at them, then slowly start sleeping.

Throughout the late night, and early morning, Serena kept working on paperwork.

Darien walk next to her to watch her work on the paperwork. "So how's paperwork, love?"

"Well darling, I have to file the reports and payments for the Lockets." Serena explained.

"Do they have to pay for the Lockets? They found it and use it already. So what's the big problem?" Darien shrugs it off.

"It's against the law to use other Magical Vigilante Lockets without paying them. But since they were involve with the Oztown Incident, I think they'll decrease the prize from the original 10 thousand to maybe a 5 thousand." Serena is making an estimation while filing a report on battling against Layla Jackson for all four while filing Rebecca Wolfe been missing and been kidnap by the Neo Brauns Army.

"Kidnap, huh?" Darien is curious. "I understand the missing part, but kidnapping?"

"Because if Dorothy is expecting on bringing down one of the Neo Brauns, then she'll need a cover up and a story to provide why she went after them. This is what being a Guide is to a Magical Girl. We're like the desk workers to the police stations." Serena continue with her work. "Speaking of work, can you get me the Witch?"

Darien transform into his human form as he present it to Serena, then press the speed dial and on speaker.

"What is it, Dorothy?" Almira asked.

"Serena."

"Oh. Then what do you want, Serena?"

"Question, how are you gonna pay for their Lockets? They do background checks on the cards after all."

"No problem. I managed to score some money beforehand, I'm gonna pay it in cash. I'm not paying for Bones though, Marge got that cover. And Makayla got enough for a bank heist a couple months ago, she'll pay for her own. And I'll be giving Johnston her Mentor's bank account, as a gift."

"Understood."

Darien grabs Dorothy's purse and look over at the ticket. "How much is the ticket, by the way?" He mutters to himself. "Eh!" Shocked. "Serena, is this a joke of a ticket?"

"How much is it?" Almira asked.

"At least 10 thousand."

"...You're pulling my leg, aren't you?"

Serena chime in. "It's my job to provide them the proper ticket. If not, they're gonna question it. I know it's not fun, but it's the law of the Magical Girls."

"Regardless, I'm gonna pay over 10 grand! Last time I recall, they were actually way cheaper back then!"

"That I can answer properly. You should thank Jackson for the reason we jacked up the prices, and quite meaningful as well." Serena pulls out an old report of a school incident.

"Care to explain?"

"Gladly. One day in school, Jackson was hunting down St. Michael's daughter, who was gonna be attending in second grade. That class was gonna be Magical Girls, they all asked their parents to buy them since they were only $50 at the times and the slogan that any girl can be a Magical Girl. Jackson assume it was young Radcliffe's class..."

"Wait! It's it the Boston School Massacre?"

"You know it?"

"Besides being on then news for vague reasons, I remembered a Coven Meeting about that. Jackson got scolded for it by the Plague Witches at the time, but any other Salem Witches didn't want to fuck with her and her short gang at the time. That's where her infamy started with the MGK, and more joined up with her after that, fearing for their lives."

"Did you mess with her?" Darien asked as he's reading the profile while seeing a picture of Michelle Radcliffe and her daughter, Harriet.

"Hell no! Marge and I were shitting out pants when we heard about it."

Marge corrects her, "Actually, I was pissing myself but you were the one who shot herself from that meeting."

"Same difference. Continue, Serena."

"After that horrific incident, the Magical Queens at the time, suggest to increase the price therefore we won't have another incident like that. And here's a trade secret because of this, most Vigilantes that got into the Academia, had purchased the Big 5 Lockets. So it's likely the Wicked Witches will get in, if they were going for the original application form."

"I see then. Pay big bucks, you'll get in."

"That's what got me worried about Becky's situation. Her Locket is from the Black Market deals, and from the middle of nowhere, do you expect her to reach it big before Dorothy came by?"

"No." Almira being honest. "Would had made Pete very happy though."

"By the way, are you planning on removing the Jinx from her Locket?" Serena asked.

"I'm not the one who cast that spell. But it should be easy to remove. Just go get a Magical Girl to do so, and does that healing crap onto it and boom, removed. Maybe the Pink, since they're the top billing after all. No one else aren't as special as them." Almira pokes fun at the Magical Girls idealogy.

"Then I'll make a note on that." Serena open up a notepad then close it afterwards. "So any Witches in Chicago I should avoid?"

"The MGK runs the criminal underworld, but they're not crazy enough for a front assault. So just expect those that just want to cause some little trouble. But you're gonna have a shit ton of Witches in Chicago in one roof, but they won't be crazy enough to cause a big mess."

"That's a good to hear. Then Dorothy can expect a good dry run." Serena smiled.

"Is that it?"

"No. I want to understand if you're comfortable on going into the MGGA Building?" Serena pull out a map of the middle of Chicago with a massive building.

"Not gonna like it. And you're from a building like it, what can I expect?"

"I'm from the Washington branch. I heard Detroit, Chicago, and New York are the most chaotic cities. Austin, Boston, LA, Tallahassee, and Denver are either or, when it comes to being dangerous or peaceful. DC is in the middle. But hearing that the Coven Meeting is in Chicago, I'm not surprised that it's your main place for a meeting."

"No. A Plague Witch host the Meeting. Asuna made us all go to Tokyo at one point, but most of us just send our Familiars to attend. Italy was lovely. London, not my favorite place. Nor Moscow, it's cold as hell when we had that meeting."

"I see. So it's random for a meeting place? Interesting. Question, I do have a worried feeling about one of your Plague Witches." Serena pulls out Hikaru Asuna profile.

"Not all of them?"

"That will be a different time, this is a more personal feeling. What is this Hikaru Asuna planning? Because when she keeps asking for an audience with Queen Victoria..."

"Don't spit on Alex's grave, cat." Marge spat out.

"Sorry. Audience with Queen Star that she want to talk about peace between both sides. But it has me concerned."

"Nobody doesn't know her plan. And that's why we're afraid of her. Us Witches will tend to go for the long con till we execute a plan. Even her title is concerning; the Plague Witch of Peace."

"Fancy title." Serena compliment.

"A lot of better than the Plague Witch of Crime, Slavery, Death, and Hellfire. Such a destructive bunch, but civilized if you believe it?"

"I don't. I expect your kind would be backstabbing each other and gain power."

"We do that. Quite a lot, but when it comes to Magical Girls, we'll put our differences at the side."

"Interesting."

"I honestly can't believe we taken more Queens than you lot with the Plague Witches."

Serena rolled her eyes. "I can't believe it myself, but facts are facts."

Darien is looking out to the see the city lights. "Wow!"

"First time in the city, stray?" Serena snarky smiled.

"It is!" Darien joyfully smile. "I hope Master will allow me to roam the streets for the trash food."

Serena giggled. "So Witch, what can you tell me about the Neo Brauns? Before we get into the hotel."

"I got this one, Mira." Marge chime in. "They're mostly a mobile group. Been run out of Germany, but managed to find a home in America. Spite their protest. Abbie should be grateful that they haven't found her, since they indoctrinated all German Witches. Named after Eva Braun, the wife of Hitler. Even made the Eva name as the highest authority title."

"How many does Master expect to fight against?" Darien asked.

"At least around 500 Witches with 5 highest officers, not including the Eva."

"Did you and they got involve with World War 2?" Serena was curious.

"Yes. Back then before the Magical Girls came from Japan, we tend to fight one another, till the Nazis came. I would say Germans, but that will be disrespectful to them."

"Understandable." Serena nods.

"Back then, the Nazi Witches range from 1000 to 10,000 Witches with their leader fighting against the Allied Witches."

"Did this Eva managed to survive World War 2?" Serena asked.

"Not the current Eva, but the Mentor was. The original. The She-Wolf, Frieda Reinhard. The Nazi Apprentice to Koch, not an actual Witch but she seem to find a liking to her methods."

Serena pull up the Most Wanted list with an image of Frieda Reinhard been deceased.

Frieda Reinhard, 5'8". Long blonde hair. Blue eyes. Wearing a traditional Nazi uniform.

"Deceased. I doubt a Magical Girl would had taken her down."

Almira spoke. "And you're correct. Because we all sold her out after they came from Japan. Spend her entire life in jail till the 90's where she had been executed. Her Apprentice on the other hand, the current Eva. Emma von Wolfgang."

Serena sees no Wanted pictures of her, nor any of her Neo Brauns, but been classified as Most Wanted in the Magical Girl reports.

"What can I put in here?" Serena asked as she has a report of her opened up. "There's not much to read nor see."

"Emma spend nearly 60 years in her Cauldron. Her Wand is the Iron Cross medal, at least the wood around it with Ruby and Emerald gemstones. Not much known about her, even when we found out who she is later on. And she was nearly been titled as the Plague Witch of War before Jackson got it."

"War? I thought it would Control or Nazi." Serena question it.

"Her ideal is creating a World War 3, but using America as a home base. But I'm more glad that Annabelle White, the Plague Witch of Slavery, xenophobia nature came in, since she doesn't like the idea of an outsider running America."

Serena looks confused over the statement. "Slavery? This is quite complicated among you Witches."

"We're all reborn in different time periods, but we keep our original time periods in our minds. So White does approve her control nature, but wish she was born as a pure red blooded American. Not as a... how does she put it Marge?"

"A fat German blooded cheeseball."

Serena looks uncomfortable. "How far are we at the hotel?"

"We're almost there, and I'll help you on providing the photos for the Neo Brauns, and the officers background." Almira said.

"I would love that."

"Darien, go wake up Johnny. You might need all the help to carry the girls up to the top."

"Right away." Darien nods then goes to him in his cat form.

Serena is finishing up her work, then prepare to leave the camper as she start stretching out. She hang the phone up.

Dorothy woke up in the most comfortable bed in her life. Seeing everyone is getting ready as she noticed that she's in a different room. Getting up to walk up to the closed curtain to reveal that she's on the top floor of the Waldorf Astoria Chicago.

"Wow!"

Dorothy is witnessing life of the big city as she sees a couple of Magical Girls and Witches are flying around, in combat.

Serena happily walk up to her.

"Are you ready for your test drive? For that real Magical Girl feel?"
