Thomas cackled as Glick was attacked by his ropes. HEHEHEHEHEHE. BUT he was still keeping an eye on the man and as he started to BELLOW the disarming spell Thomas quickly darted out of the way and watched the spell whizz past. Pointing his wand at the man once more he cast a nonverbal Levicorpus at him and hoped like hell he would have the pleasure of seeing the man hang upside down. HEHEHEHE.

Sherman would have acted against Glick when he tried to stop the captain's progress but Thomas had beaten him to it not to mention, he was far closer to Charlotte then Barnabus. Unfortunately the capture didn't last long for as he steadily moved with the woman closer to Barnabus, the gunner managed to get free and try to fight back against the doctor.

"Blimey!" he exclaimed in frustration.

'I don't know, but it's broken out into a fight! Should we get a teacher? I know supposedly two are here, but they're not in their right minds!' Rose said, fearfully. 'Protego!' Rose shouted, as the shield came in front of her and Ronnie. 'They won't be able to get us accidently now!' Rose said loudly. She watched the spells fly around. 'Get beside me!' Rose shouted to Ronnie. 'I need to get you in here too!' Rose shouted

Ronnie grew tired. What are we supposed to do now? She wondered to herself. She was confused. "Erm....are we doing something else sir?" she called out.

As the spells flew about, Barnabus somehow managed to get out of the way.

No! Where did she go?

"Charlotte! Where are you?" he shouted.

Barnabus looked around frantically until he saw where Sherman was standing. Suddenly, the field looked larger than ever and he felt as if he were moving in slow motion towards his beloved treasure who stood 200 meters away.

"A fight?! Blimey!" Ronnie said peering around for the fight. "Yeah, I think we should get a teacher!" she said. "Right!" Ronnie said scooting as close as she could to Rose. She was shocked at the fight. "Erm...you want to get a teacher now, mate? Or stay in this shield?!" she shouted over the commotion.

What Charlotte saw next made her entire heart swell! Even in the distance she spotted it at once. It was his signal! The signal that was just for HER! How many times had she seen him raise his hat to her? How many centuries had she longed to see just that gesture again?!
"Sherman, we must get through!" she exclaimed, pulling even further ahead. At that moment, her safety was the furthest thing from her mind. This woman's body was insignificant. Barnabus was all that had ever mattered.
Breaking through the crowd, Charlotte finally caught a glimpse of Barnabus across the open field.

"My one and only! Tis I!" she shouted, dashing towards him as her arms extended. She looked ready to take flight. And well... she was. Her very soul was soaring at the sight of him.

Sherman continued to follow Charlotte, hearing her words to him even as they both strieved to get to the captain thorough the commotion. Someone called for his attention at his shoulder as if expecting him to answer to it and he meerly turned and glared quizically in the young lasses direction.

Hearing his real name, he turned his attention back to the woman he was following, speeding up his process to catch back up to her excited footsteps. "Aye..." he said thinking of a way to clear the passage between lovers, his wand coming back out in response as the list of spells came to mind.

"EXPECTO PATRONUM!" he cast loudly, his wand and arm pointed in the direction of Barnabus. The spectral parrot errupting from the tip as directed and flying towards the man that was the target doing its best to part the seas of students. Reaching the captain, the unreal bird landed with a flap on the captain's shoulder as if awaiting its caster's arrival. Sherman caught up beside Charlotte moving to follow his patronus, using his own body to dispell any that lingered in their path as they moved.

What the heck had gone wrong with the people in this school? Talking funny. Fighting. Just...being plain weird. Weirdos. All of them.

Chad was in the process of pulling his wand out when he noticed Kimber running by? What the heck was she doing down here? He BUGGED her over and over to come outside. If all it took was a stupid fight between students, he would have incited one looong time ago.

Wait...why was she running to Vindictus? "KIMBER," he called, hoping to get her attention.

Hearing some bloke calling out for... someone Thomas spun around and caught sight of said bloke looking at Charlotte. Great. Another landlubber trying to get in the way.

With a lazy flick of his wand Thomas sent a trip jinx followed by a stunner aimed lower so as to HOPEFULLY hit him as he fell... given the spells collided with his intended target.

Kurumi felt her fingers slipping and she shut her eyes tight. Maybe it wouldn't be so bad, you know, falling. Kurumi had read about people blacking out from falling from really high up. Maybe she would get lucky and she wouldn't feel a thing. Better than being devoured by a Snargaluff anyway.

Just as her fingers could hold on no longer, she felt something close around her arm and her head snapped skyward. She could have cried and probably did a little - and not because of his offer to ride with him. "I-I-I owe you about three dozen cupcakes," she laughed awkwardly as her grip found itself once again around the handle of her broom. She pulled down on it until the broom was under her feet and she could stand on it.

The brawny lad had been attempted to get his damned broom to fly straight, and HIGH, when he noticed many events transpire within a few short moments. The treasure was HERE!! And those lubbers were getting in the way. Had to put a stop to that.

Fishlips retrieved his wand from his holster, switched it to his left hand, and send a silent knock-back jink to the tall lubber trying to stop his Captain's love.

Barnabus quickened his pace as Charlotte ran towards him. The field was becoming more crowded with spectators and he maneuvered around them. Nothing and no one was going to get in his way.

Suddenly, a spectral parrot landed on his shoulder and Barnabus laughed. It stayed there for a few seconds before vanishing.

The distance between him and his beloved was now only a mere 10 meters when he stopped walking. "Charlotte, me love!" he called out lovingly and held out his arms.

"EEE HEE HEE HEE!" cackled Glick. He was having a good 'ole time, laughing in the faces of the enemies yet defending himself and all he stood for, as well. "Aguamenti!" Water shot from his wand, and in the mad state he was in, he began watering everyone around, even the students on the ground and in the air. "EEE HEE HEE HEEEEE!" He was like a human sprinkler system, giving everyone around a shower.

Ronnie watched, frightened at the fight. She wondered if they would continue the lesson or not......were they all suppossed to be fighting? Was it part of the lesson or something? As Ronnie stood with Rose in their protection charm, she got quite bored. "Are they going to ever stop?" she asked Rose.

So, he arrived just in time, eh? That was...nice. And he certainly shook his head once she was on her broom, "You owe me nothing," truly, she owed him absolutely nothing, and once she figured out the new found information Sierra figured out was told about her, it was very likely that he'll end up owing her something.

"Can you zoom down? I think we should fly towards Mr. Stryker, or the ground," so far, that was a very safe spot. Or not too safe, but safe enough. He seriously didn't want to be on the air anymore, especially when pirate Sierra was throwing water all around.

Wasn't she aware that they couldn't use their wands anymore?

Probably.

Gah!

What was with the water?! "Arggh!! Belay with the water!" He scowled and flicked his wand at the sprays of water heading towards him, dousing them with a bit of fire as he glared at the Mad pirate. The fool needed to be stopped! He flicked his wand at the pirate, sending off a strong spray of water. "How's ye like a taste of ye own medicine?!"

What the heck? Why were the students sending spells at him? It appeared that Chad had missed some sort of memo or something because he did remember being attacked by students as part of the job description.

Without a second thought, Chad easily blocked the incoming curses.

O_____O.

Charlotte? HIS LOVE!? Oh heeeeeell no. Forget the fact that Vindictus called her Charlotte, Kimber was NOT "his love".

"KIMBER," he called again, starting to run as fast as he could towards the pair with the intent of getting between them.

William is completely confused. He jsut watches what is going on in class. "Anyone want to sit here with me and watch what is happening?" Willaim asked the class.

For Charlotte, the chaos around her had ceased to exist. Even as the force of misguided spells crashed down around her, Barnabus was all she could see. "Barnabus!!" she called, repeating his name over and over again as she ran.
Suddenly, and from out of NOWHERE, another man moved into her path. "NO!" she cried out, dodging him with a quick step to the left.

As graceful as Charlotte had been in her own body, the one she currently occupied was foreign to her. She was running erratically as if no longer in control of her motor functions. She called out in horror as her awkward feet became entangled and she stumbled towards Barnabus with a shrieking leap, falling - AT LAST - into his open arms.

Sherman simply stopped in place as Charlotte started running outright, the sailor releasing any touch or hold he had on the woman meerly letting her go. He watched for a few moments before turning his head and focusing his attention on the other man who seemed none to happy about the beauty's attention to Barnabus, the man resuming his movement to stand closer to be ready to keep him from interfering any more then Glick and company already had.

Sherman eyed the focus of his attention as he slipped between him and the reunited couple, wand in hand. "Ye be best to desist..."

Barnabus watched as Charlotte ran towards him. Another man started running after her, and he swore under his breath. But she was faster! Barnabus gasped as Charlotte lost her balance and suddenly, she was in his arms. His strong arms circled around her and pulled her close. His beloved was back where she belonged - safe in his loving embrace. He closed his eyes and breathed deeply, taking in the sweet scent of her skin and hair.

He gently pulled slightly back so that he could gaze upon her face. Barnabus saw his beloved Charlotte and not the woman who's body she was inhabiting. "My one true love," he whispered softly and he caressed her cheeks with his right hand. "My heart. My treasure. I promise that we'll never ever be apart again."

He traced her lips with his fingertips and then tilted her chin upwards, ever so gently. Barnabus leaned in and his lips gently caressed those of his beloved Charlotte.

At that moment, a mystic blue mist appeared and wrapped itself around the two adults. The same color of mist began appearing around those who thought they were pirates.

SAY WHAT?

Madame Donovan and Professor Vindictus?? But, didn't Madame Donovan gave Mr. Stryker a puppy????!

Blink.

His mouth was completely opened as he watched them kiss. And then...THEN he realized he'd touched the ground, or landed roughly into it. Great. Stupid broom. The weirdest thing happened next, when a blue mist started to appear out of nowhere...and...on both the Staff members, Arya, Lexi, Sierra, Simon...what on Earth was that?

Was Professor Antares right and the aliens finally found Hogwarts?

Blink.

"Zoom down?" Kurumi gulped looking towards the pitch and all the chaos ensuing below. "I-I am not sure zoom would be the proper word, but I might be able to glide very cautiously towards the pitch..."

Kurumi's free hand held onto Treyen's robe, or hand, whatever was closest to her as she slowly began her decent...when she saw something that she certainly hadn't been expecting.

PROFESSOR VINDICTUS WAS KISSING HER HEAD OF HOUSE!

o___________________________O

Kurumi's cheeks blushed and she instantly looked away. No one should witness all that, right? Especially after she heard words like treasure and heart being thrown around. After a few moments, Kurumi peeked at the pitch again and saw a ghostly smoke wrap around the two professors.

"T-Treyen..." Kurumi stammered tugging on whatever bit of him she was holding onto. "W-W-What's that!?"

"Medicine?" Glick yelled. "I don't see no medicine, ye bilge rat!" He cackled loudly. So loudly, in fact, that his voice boomed off any walls in the near vicinity of the area. He was mad--Mad Jasper Glick, that is. He pointed his wand toward the man, but his cackle faded and his smile fell as he realized the water had stopped. The medicine! "I'll get ye fer that, ye right scallywag!" Scowl in place, Glick bounded toward the man...

...but then he suddenly stopped, almost as if some force of nature was keeping him from moving much further. His attention was drawn to the woman he thought to now be Charlotte. "Arrr!" he exclaimed, seeing her in the arms of the captain.

He started to cackle loudly at their kiss, but then his attention was pulled away and toward a strange mist that had encircled him. He felt himself being entangled in the mist, as if it had been the force of nature to stop him earlier. Maybe it had been... "Arrrrrrrrrrrrr!" he yelled, but his voice started to fade into the distant, and he felt himself being pulled far, far away...


...then Sierra hit the ground. Hard. So hard she started coughing as she lied there, trying to figure out what happened and how she'd ended up in the middle of what looked like a flying class. She tried to sit up, but she was feeling a little weak. She was content just to lie there and stare up at this sky as she waited for the feeling of weakness to pass.

She kind of wanted her father, too, but that part she wouldn't admit to a soul.
