Sorry for the wait! This chapter is very short because I am very very very busy and I'm trying to update my oneshot book and rewrite my other story in a very short amount of time. I apologise!

As you skipped up to the deck on the ship, you felt the boat rocking harshly, causing you to begin sliding uncontrollably up and down the long corridor. You eventually managed to grapple as a door handle and continue grabbing onto the next one until you made it to the stairs. Holding onto the rail, you clambered up one by one. The thrashing against the boat was clearly Uma. The roars you could also hear above deck may have been a retaliation to the sea witch. It didn't sound just like any beast, though. It sounded like a dragon.

With greater force, you pulled yourself up the stairs continuously. The thrashing soon stopped significantly, signalling the finish of the battle you assumed was being fought before. This left you to carry on your trip up the stairs in a stable manner. When you reached the top, you looked down upon all those on deck. Mal was wearing the most gorgeous purple gown and she looked so happy, stood hugging Ben. Everyone looked exhausted but cheerful, making you wonder what truly went on. Had everyone had the same slipping and sliding issue as you?

As you descended to the floor, everyone turned to look at you, staring curiously.

"Yeah, yeah, I'm okay, yada yada. Just got captured by a pirate below deck. And, dear King, you owe me a goddamn apology!" You exclaimed, making Ben rather confused. You saw this and just said "I'm waiting, dearie!"

"Umm... Sorry?" He answered questioningly.

"Good, now, you can now continue whatever you were doing whilst I go and check on a certain pirate. Come with me..." You looked around " Lonnie and Jay."

You waltzed down the staircase, swordspeople in tow. When you made it to the bottom, you began opening doors randomly. It wasn't like you remembered which door you were dragged through.

When you finally found it, you barged in, seeing Harry still unconscious.

"Wow, a clean blow. How has he stayed out this long? Poor guy, must have been a hard hit." Lonnie said, checking his head.

"Anyway, better find something to restrain him with." Jay told us, beginning to search around the room.

"No need, my guess is this sucker has my stuff. If I can find it, our job'll be easy." You spoke, making your way over to him and scouring his jacket pockets. You soon found the vial with your pixie dust in it along with your spell book. You brought it out reading for a binding spell. Flicking through the pages, you managed to find one that might suffice. It was a protective bubble of sorts that could only be broken by the caster. You quickly chanted the spell, aiming it on Harry.

It worked and, what made it even better was the fact that you could control the movement of the bubble, giving you something to mess with for a while. You bobbed it up and down while walking down the corridor back to the Cotillion, being followed by Jay and Lonnie.

"Could ya stop that, darlin'. It's givin' me an 'eadache!" A voice yelled. The Scottish accent was familiar, obviously Harry's, but it seemed to bes stronger. You resolved in your head that this happened when he was mad, maybe?

"Nope, darlin'. It's funny!!!!!"
You taunted, grinning wickedly. The couple behind you shook with hidden laughter.

Everything was funny in that moment. You didn't know why. It was one of those times in life where you are just so inexplicably happy. The past few days had been a blur of adventure and action. It was refreshing for once in your rather boring life. And it was all because of Harry.
