Wake up ...Wake up..Wake up!

Lucien's eyes shoot wide open and took a long deep panicked breath as if he had just be resurrected and hadn't breathed in days . Looking around he found himself in very familiar setting.

"I'm Back.... I'm finally back.." Lucien then got up and ran down the familiar street of New Orleans, Pushing and shoving people out his way so that he could make his way home however the more he tried to get home, the further from home he appeared.

Finally, coming to a stop and realizing the flaw in his reality. he started to look around again.

"What the fuċk...C-Daddy..What you doing here? Mama LoLo killed you!"

The one Lucien was talking to, stopped and turned to the sound of the voice. And then all the people in that false New Orleans stopped and looked at Lucien with eyes void of life and fresh wounds that caused their deaths still visible.

"Haha you know boy, If your father was here we would be very disappointed.." A man with a top hat and cane came walking through the crowd, his face was painted showing a skeleton mask and he wore a tuxedo with out the bow tie and black/white spectator wingtip shoes.

"Dont look all surprised boy . Now tell me, why cling to the past if your future can be anything you want. why help strangers when you own them nothing."

Lucien still looked at the man in shock "B-Baron Samedi.."

"Yes, Little Legba?"

"Am I dead?"

"No boy, but next time you could be. Now the Bondye wants to know. what are you trying to do here?" Baron Samedi finally up close to Lucien, now had face of shock and confusion. He had never seen a soul like Lucien's.

"Haha what do you mean the Bondye wants to know? The Bondye knows everything ...Hell he the one who put me here!" -Lucien

"Oh perhaps he dont know. This plane is to powerful ain't it. The Bondye got no control here"-Lucien

"The Magic must be too powerful. And I Think that fuċkɨnġ Voldemort....

Baron Samedi interrupted Lucien" Boy, Why your soul look like that?"

Lucien looked at the Baron, Something wasnt right, The Bondye, His soul, This place . even the new world he was in, something was missing.

"Ill tell you about my soul if you tell me about this world the Bondye put me in... And I want the truth"-Lucien

The baron was intoxicated by the look of Lucien's soul and wanted to know more at any cost. After all he is the Loa of death and collector of souls.

"Simple, You live in half world . The gods died off and The Bondye is the last of them and fled to our world. Something about the death of an Old Religion. Most of the Loa's dont know that much, but yo daddy... Oh your daddy has been with the Bondye since the beginning .. if anyone knows the whole story its him."

"Hmmm well, my soul has twice twice the life and death energy than normal souls in this world."

"You mean theres people walking around on your side with half of what you soul is?" The Baron thought Lucien was a golden goose. but with just half of what Lucien's soul offers, he would be able to walk the plane of the living. Now to find out that everyone on his side had strong souls the hunger took over.

"With your soul I dont have to back...with your soul..." The Baron disappeared into thin air and so did Lucien

"Welcome back my lord"-Nokby

Lucien opened his once again and took a look around. He was back at his manor. in his bed with Vega laying next to him and Nokby tending to him. But the only think that occupied his thoughts was his confusing Conversation with Baron Samedi. It left him with more questions now then the first time he released this wasnt his world.

But until he could find answers, he would keep down the path he was forging for himself.

Taking a deep breath to regain his bearings. "What happened after I lost consciousness, Nokby?"

"Well, my lord. nothing really. you've only been gone for an hour at most"-Nokby

"However, my lord, a man did stop by not that long ago to invite you to spend a day at Uagadou school of magic"

"Decline. I just want to enjoy my summer. Unfortunately, there are moments when I offer kindness on a whim. So where are our guest" Lucien got up from the bed and walk out of the room

"They are in the study sir. However, that Necromancer girl is extremely unruly "

"Okay, well go back to your experiments I'll call, if I need you" Lucien then turned down the hall and went to his study

"Arsu, Azizo give us some time alone" Lucien asked the twin and they complied with ease. Leaving Nina and Lucien in the study

"Thank you for getting me out of there. My name is Lucien Dubois, what should I call you?"

"Nina is just fine."

"Well Nina. I'm sure the boys must have told you but they owe me a great debt. And now so do you. All I want is for you to teach the twins magic and come back to Britain with me at the end of the summer"

"You own me now. So, your word is law of course"

"Then that settles it then"

Days went by and Nina taught the twins magic after Visney gave he a tour of the manor and took her to get fitted for new clothing.

Once the Headmaster of Uagadou, was declined, He attempted to sway Lucien by other means. And the gifts began to roll in. Lucien had no idea what made him with worth all of the gifts. But he happily accepted them and still declined the offers to visit Uagadou.

Thoroughly intrigued Lucien set out on a journey to depths of the Congo...

Arriving at the edge of the Congo. Lucien allowed Vega to transform back into her full size.

'I sense many dangers here my lord.'

'Of course, magick in Africa isn't suppressed like it is in Britain, they use wandless and gesture magic, mental attack, and based on the battle at the arena they can even apply magick to hand to hand combat and weapons. They're like battle mages from video games I used to play in my old world. Who knows what else they can do. and this is just one continent. I wonder what the others are like'

Lucien then transfigured his Agbada to an all black combat uniform and boots before stepping into the congo to not only face real trials of danger but to also unravel the mysteries of animagi.
