💗 Copia x Ghouls - A spell gone wrong

Sorry for the wait!

<><><><><><><><><><>

Copia hastily walked through the hallways, making his way all the way downstairs into the basement. He held an old and heavy book his hand, full of spells and summoning spells. He had basically memorized the cast for a ghoul summoning, but he still always carried it with him when he had to cast a spell, just to make sure. As he finally reached the basement, he took a deep breath to calm himself down, before he opened the door and walked inside the room where spells were casted. Most of ghouls were already there, the summoning room fully prepared for the upcoming ghoul summoning for a new quintessence, and a new multi ghoul.

"Ah... hehe, sorry for being late" he apologized quickly, taking his position in the middle of the room, right in front of the pentagram drawn onto the floor by one of his ghouls. The ghouls just nodded, Swiss patting his shoulder reassuringly, "No problem, we should just get going" Copia nodded in agreement. He got into position, the ghouls all standing behind him, getting a good look on the whole scene. The Papa opened the book he was carrying, looking through the pages until he found the right spell. Reading it a few times to memorize them. Clearing his throat, he closed the book again. He didn't think he'd have to read it from the book.

"Sathanas potens deorsum, audi verba mea" he started, making a 'as above, so below' sign with one of his hands. He closed his eyes as he continued the spell, saying the wordse ne by memory. He had never made a mistake before, never, so he was certain things would be okay this time as well. Keeping his eyes closed, he felt the pentagram on the floor light up in fire, signalizing him that the summoning was working. But there was a slip in his words he didn't even notice. But he quickly did as he opened his eyes again. He looked down to the floor, imagining to see a ghoul in the middle of the circle. But there was nothing. Frowning in confusion, he stepped closer and crouched down, feeling the lines. They were still warm, meaning there had been a spell casted.

He huffed and stood back up, turning around to grab his book when he suddenly froze in his tracks. There they were, all his ghouls, but not like he knew them. Swiss, Sodo, Rain and Cirrus all stood in front of him... but they were kits.  

"What...?" he asked, rather himself than anyone else as he stared at the ghoul kits in front of him. But they just looked back at him with their big, curious eyes. They looked all quite adorable, but Copia had different problems now. He needed his ghouls, not only for the tours and the music, they all did several other tasks in the ministry. He swore under his breath and hurried to get his book. He flicked through the pages, trying to find what he did wrong and how he could undo it again. His hands were shaking as he desperately tried to find a spell that could make this work, or he hoped that this was all just a really bad dream.

But the moment he felt a tiny hand tug on his jeans, he felt awfully defeated. There was no spell to undo this, and this wasn't a dream either. He slowly turned his gaze down, seeing a small ghoul with his white horns; Sodo. Copia crouched down, more onto his height. "Sodo..." he mumbled, carefully patting his head as if to make sure this was actually real. He bit his lip, looking over to the other kits who hurried to get to Copia as well. But the Papa had no idea how to deal with children, and definitely not with ghoul children. He slowly sat down on the ground, and all the other kits walked up to him as well to get close to him as they seemingly found comfort in his touch and presence.

"Fuck..." he muttered as he hugged them carefully. He could only stare into the distance, still more than overwhelmed and confused. He had no clue what to do with them now. For a good few minutes he just sat in the summoning room with them. He was lost in thoughts, trying to come up with solutions for this awful situation. But his thoughts were interrupted as one ghoul suddenly started crying. Despite their changes and the transformation, he could still make out which was which, and the crying one was Rain. But just shortly after Rain started crying, Cirrus followed suit. Copia groaned in frustration and ruffled their hair. He really was helpless with kids.
