Ch 269: The Schools Arrive.
"I don't understand why we are outside, Its cold out," Harriet says Luna nods along with the observation.
" Did you not read the notice?" Hermionie who is nearby asks
"What notice?" Harriet asks
"The one that says delegations from 3 wizarding academies will be coming here," Hermonie said
"Though I never heard of Koa before." Hermonie says
"Where did your mom go?" Luna whispers
"She said something about making an entrance and to act surprised. I had no clue what that meant, but I have an idea now" Harriet says
"That doesn't sound ominous," Luna says
"Whats that in the sky!" A student shouts
"Its a bird!"
"ITs a plane!"
"NO its obviously a dragon!"
Several theories on what the dot rocketing through the storm clouds is.
"Is that hagrid over there?" Luna asks
Harriet looks at a long straight patch of grass in the distance to see hagrid waving paddles around like he's trying to direct the thing in the sky to land.
"Is that a carriage?" Harriet asks since her thunderbird animagus improved her eyesight.
Suddenly it begins to dive down on approach.
Harriet is sure she heard Hagrid scream a "manly scream" as he dodged out of the way, of the carriage being pulled by flying abraxians.
"Madam Maxine welcome," Dumbledore says
"Why don't they use warming charms?" Harriet asks rather loudly noticing the girls from France freezing to death because their uniforms were not meant for the current climate.
"My word why haven't we thought of zat," Madame Maxine says
There are a hand full of facepalms some grateful looks and everything seems fine afterward.
"A lack of common sense?" Harriet asks because as her mothers have told her wizards are stupid.
Next Harriet notices movement over in black lake as a massive ship emerges from under the water.
"Is that the flying dutchman?" Harriet asks realizing momma Kyra probably knows the story behind that ship.
The ship moored itself on the edge of the lake as a plank is lowered and the students from Dumstrang disembark.
"Albus my friend!" Karkoff says on as he walks up and gives a half hug to Dumbledore who responds in kind.
Suddenly the clouds seem to slowly disappear as Summon The Heroes by John Williams begins to play.
"Of course she would do something like this," Harriet says
Luna nods knowing Kyra has a slight flare for the dramatic.
Suddenly a massive golden portal opens up in the sky as two vertibird pop out of the portal followed by the Prydwen in full glory.
The massive Zepplin sits up in the now blue sky. as it drops two anchors along with several other wires.
Suddenly a Vertibird detaches from the majestic blimp and flies itself to the ground.
Once it lands and the propellers slow to a stop and Kyra steps out.
"Albus long time no see," Kyra says with a teasing grin.
"Yume!" Albus shouts
"I haven't seen you since the 1960s I think it was," Kyra says while several students are muttering about professor Kyra.
"Mom!" Harriet shouts running up and hugging Kyra.
"How so Harriet you've only been gone a month or so." Kyra asks running her fingers through Harriet's hair.
"Yume, I have wanted to talk to you for so long." Albus says
"Well, I don't go by Yume anymore and I have purposely been avoiding you because you have been an annoying stalker." Kyra says as several other women also get off the vertibird behind her.
"The wards here are rather weak." Osaka says
"I resent that my students made the wards here." Kyra says
"The students all look physically weak," Yang says
"Not everyone can punch a dragon into submission." Kyra snips back
"I know but at least be able to dodge spells," Yang says looking at everyone.
A burst of petals appears next to Kyra.
"The ship is tethered down," Ruby says appearing.
"Great let's get inside shall we?" Kyra asks as portals open up and several students both humans and Fanus step out. Kyra also reveals her own monkey tail to make sure some purebloods keep their mouths shut.
"Is that hogwarts?" A child voice asks
"Harriet you need to show us around!" Another childish voice shouts
several girls with appearing its obvious who their parents are and a couple of them also have a tail as well but not all of them.
"Of course Fei, Lapis," Harriet says
"Are we really staying in that castle again?" Weiss asks with Willa by her side.
"It seems safe enough," Blake answers from behind all of the Hogwarts students.
"Dears please calm down," Kyra says not wanting a scene.
"I would rather be in my lab working on potions and serums," Weiss says
"True I would rather be forging and crafting," Hana says
"Alright so why are we still calling it the Triwizard tournament with 4 schools?" Yuna asks
The batch of color full and unique hunters stand out.
"So, um is Koa academy a magic school?" Dumbledore asks
"In a way, I found some people wield unique magic called semblances, and the school trains monster hunters," Kyra says not talking about the fact it's from a different world. All of the students know not to mention it as well. I mean they are connected to the monster hunter world it's not too uncommon.
===================================================
After the dinner welcoming everyone, Kyra heads back up to the airship.
"How's it going Jarvis?" Kyra asks
"We have two missile cruisers complete, The Prydwin seems to have had a successful maiden voyage and our stage of Power armor troops are about to finish the finals stage of training," Jarvis says
"And our Allies?" Kyra asks
"Vacuo is still fighting however it seems Atlas has most of the strategic resource zones," Jarvis says
Kyra just sighs.
"Post missions to help evacuate, I don't want to fight till our soldiers are ready," Kyra says
"Right away ma'am," Jarvis says
"Two of Vale's destroyers were damaged by large sea Grimm." Jarvis says
"Do we have any spare engineers?" Kyra asks
"A small squad," Jarvis says
"Send them they can work with Vale's resources and its own engineers," Kyra says as she looks at the map in the Prydwin.
