Bon Voyage! Volume 1: The Beginning

Chapter 23: First Day Of School

Axel, Samantha, and Nick entered their world; earth. The portal opened up in the middle of a street where people were walking. They saw a mysterious looking door appear in the middle of their eye view and they had no idea what that meant for the protection of their planet. When the door opened, three adolescent figures walked out from the bright blue luminescent silk screen. They were wearing royal costumes, still the pedestrians were confused. Axel said, 'Hello, we're from this world but we had to take a detour so carry on about your day', the pedestrians stared at him and accepted his claim. "Nice work." Samantha said. "Thanks, I know a thing or two with the reactions on people when they see supernatural phenomenon." Axel said. Axel, Samantha, and Nick walked away from the sparkling door and walked into town. Not that soon after they left, The Evil Queen walked through the portal with her Huntsman. She smiled to see her home, at last she was free. "Where are we?" The Huntsman asked, not sure where on Earth they ended up in. "We're in Puebla, Mexico it would seem." The Evil Queen said, looking at the city limit sign on the side of the road. The portal closed and disappeared.

Axel, Samantha, and Nick didn't realize that they could just pop right back to The Boshaumi Hotel and Spa. "Axel, we have magic, we can just pop right back to the hotel!" Samantha said. They were walking along a small city, close to a museum of Mexico City's historical eras. "We can't just use our powers when people can see us! They'll call the FBI, or the CIA, or some other major security military that will put people like us in labs to ask us questions about who we are and where we got magic!" Axel said. Nick walked closer to Axel but not too close to Samantha. "Hey guys, when do you suppose that our clothes will change back?" Nick asked, making a big point. "You're right. We need to find a place to hide!" Axel said. People on Earth wouldn't understand if they saw magic even if they didn't know it was magic. So when Axel's, Samantha's, and Nick's clothes change back, the civilians would think to panic because they never experienced magic, not until today but they were too distracted and in their own world to realize the truth.

Axel, Samantha, and Nick walked into a forest next to a park; it was the middle of the afternoon. There was a playground where kids of ages 3-11 played games like tag and hide and go seek. Tables with benches, four of them to be exact, was where the parents spent most of their time chatting with the other parents while watching their kids. It was around lunch time and one of the dads was grilling hamburgers for him and his kids to enjoy using the community grill. Axel, Samantha, and Nick had to make sure that no one saw them transform back to their original clothes. It took twelve minutes, but it was no alarm for them because they were expecting there to be a bright glow when they transformed outfits. Axel was now wearing a navy-blue shirt with jeans and blue tennis shoes, Samantha was now wearing a baby blue blouse with purple shorts and light blue vans, her pearl necklace still around her neck, and Nick was now wearing a black Tetris shirt with grey cargo shorts and black sneakers.

"Do you think it's safe to go back to school with The Balymist Witch around?" Nick asked. "Well, if she does show up, then we have no choice but to face her." Samantha said. "You're right, we can't just avoid her. She's a part of us now, underneath our skin, like she wants to be." Axel said. "We better head back before they find out we're missing." "Ugh, tomorrow is our first day, Axel." Samantha said. "I know. It's weird how all of this is going on and we're going like nothing is different. No one knows about what's about to happen and no one is going to find out because they won't understand." Axel said. A little kid threw a blue frisbee into the woods by accident and volunteered to go fetch it. He found it but then he looked up and saw three strangers talking, away from any prying eyes. "Hello." He said. Axel was the first to see the boy. He could have easily been 9, or maybe 10 at most, with the size of his dimples on his cheeks. "Why are you talking in the woods?" The boy asked. Samantha turned around and bent over. "Well, we wanted to talk in private. We didn't want to bother anyone with what we're talking about."
