Wendy nervously glanced up at Morrigan, “You sure this is a good idea?”
Morrigan sighed, She wasn’t exactly happy with Gabrielle’s current idea for gathering power to enchant the blades they had crafted. She would have settled with just having Sabrina or Abby or even Sarah enchant the blades and leave it at that, but no Gabrielle wanted blades with more power, blades that would last the ages and blades that would have legends written about them, that is if anyone ever heard about them. “No idea, Gabrielle said she would be fine, so I’ll trust her.” Despite being nervous that her mistress was a bit power hungry she had to admit that the moonlight playing along her mistress’s pale skin gave her an enchanted quality that was interesting to say the least.
Tiffany watched the ley lines warily, she could feel the hairs on the back of her neck raise and her ears were twitching almost uncontrollably. She wasn’t sure what the rest of the girls saw but to her they looked like strings of lightning surrounded by mist. Even the large standing stones gave off heady amounts of mist.
Gabrielle smiled as she set the Amethyst sword blade on one of the stones that had long since fallen over. She smiled as she remembered the hours of work she had done pulling the bits of Amethyst out of the junk rocks the hobby shop had sold her. I had taken days to condense the material into a useable form then craft the blade and etch the runes she wanted into the blade. The hilt was magically hardened silver carved with Celtic runes. She couldn’t help but smile as she admired the work. She looked around at the gathering of girls, they had refused to let her try this on her own despite the fact that it would have been safer for them to be on the airship far away. Still she was glad of their presence. She smiled as she reached out with her magic toward the vortex of power. She smiled as she watched a trickle of power pull away from the vortex, she carefully played the energy over the blade. Concentrating she pulled slightly more power as she worked at setting up the matrix that would hold the rest of the power.
Tiffany hugged Leo as she watched the lines of lightning twist and turn and flow into Gabrielle before being directed to the blade in front of her. She held her breath as after a few minutes the small trickles of power widened into leg sized fists of lightning. She watched in amazement as the wind picked up and rustled Gabrielle’s hair like a lover. She couldn’t help but feel a bit sick by the amount of mist in the air, she could feel it seeping out of the stones, some of their ancient power flowing into the blade by way of Gabrielle. Still this blade was the least of the blades being created tonight. Most were like this one, carved of a stone the girl particularly liked. Only the last would be different. She blinked as she noticed that all of the magic in the vortex was gone and that Gabrielle was drinking the magic from the ley lines dry.
Gabrielle couldn’t keep from feeling like a goddess as she drank deeply from the lines of magic, the only thing marring the feeling of bliss was the fact that the magic was going out as quickly as it was going in. She screamed as she pulled harder at the lines. It was ecstasy, it was misery, it was like having your bones carved out by fire and your sisters fucking them better all wrapped up in one. She weaved the magic into the blade even as she screamed in lust and pain. It was probably just as well that no one could see her eyes glow with purple fire as her body shook with yearning for release.
Leo watched as his sister screamed, in some ways he was glad that his magic wasn’t like his sister’s, it was more controlled and less primal than hers was. Less powerful by far but less dangerous. A fact he was reminded of as he watched the magic flow from her like a river into the blade at her feet. He sighed, still whenever she did something like channel magic through her he couldn’t help but be a little envious. While he could pull in a trickle of outside magic and use it, it was nothing compared to even one of the arm sized lines she was drinking in. He sighed in relief as he watched the ley lines shrink to a trickle before vanishing completely.
Gabrielle smiled as she finished weaving her enchantment. She felt a little dizzy as she looked down at the blade that was to be Abby’s blade. She smiled before her body decided it was time to sleep.
Morrigan smiled down at Wendy, “And that is why she’s the boss.”
Wendy blinked before smiling mischievously up at Morrigan, “Does that mean she’s our queen?”
“No, I’m your queen you little trickster, she’s just our goddess.” She swatted Wendy lightly on her cute little behind. “Now get moving, and help the rest of the girls back to the airship, we have a long night ahead of us.”
Wendy nodded, “Where we going next?”
“Not sure, Gabrielle said County Clare, Ireland, or more specifically the Cliffs of Moher.”
“Why there?”
“Tiffany’s trident is storm based, so what better place than cliffs over looking the sea?”
Wendy chuckled, “I guess none, I’ll go help Sabrina get the rest of the stuff Gabrielle wanted us to get together.”
Morrigan smiled as she watched her elf like dark maiden run off, she couldn’t help but be amused by how much an actual elf queen would freak hearing her girls call her queen. Still it was nice to have people to take care of and besides the more help she had the better she was able to serve her goddess. She knew that Gabrielle wasn’t really a goddess but she was enough like one for one ex-elf to not care about the specifics and just be happy that she had someone watching over her.
Abby couldn’t help but gaze lovingly at the sword in her hand, it felt warm and comfortable in her hand. The blade felt like it was hers. She couldn’t help giggling as she put it in the sheath they had made especially for it. She smiled as she belted it to her waist, “So how do I look?”
Gabrielle smiled sleepily, “Like a naked cat with a top hat and a sword. So fairly cute. Now get back to bed so I can cuddle. We have an hour before we get to the cliffs.”
Abby grinned, “You’re supposed to be sleeping not playing more.”
“Too wired to sleep, curl up with me.” Gabrielle smiled, “I’ll make it worth your while.”
Abby smiled as she slipped the belt and sword off before slipping into bed with her. “Alright, I guess if you can’t sleep anyways.”

Xander sighed, he was currently chained to a wall and not exactly happy about it. Though if he was being honest about it he couldn’t say he was entirely unhappy about it either. The only thing he could figure out was that using that much magic had damaged Gabrielle’s mental shields and that she was projecting her lust for the whole ship to feel. He hadn’t thought it that dangerous until Dawn and Talsanra had hustled him into a room and before he really knew what was going on chained him to a wall. They had ignored his protests that he couldn’t judge their make out session. It had started with kissing and ended up with the two naked girls all over each other in front of him. He had tried at first not to look but by the time Dawn had shed her clothes he couldn’t keep his eyes off her pale naked body as Talsanra ran her tongue along her lovely curves.
Talsanra grinned, “Am I doing this right?” She leaned in and licked Dawn’s nipple with a long slow slurp as if it was an ice-cream cone. “You know you want her, to run your hands down her legs, to slip your fingers inside, to make her scream your name.” She smiled as she knelt down in front of Dawn.
Xander was so fixated on the two girls it took him a second to notice a naked Leah walking in with a tray in one hand and a naked Trixie on a leash in the other. “So which can I interest you in, cheese?” She lowered the platter to show off several cubes of cheese, “Or perhaps you would like to play with Trixie?”
Xander startled awake, “Cheese?” He shook his head, “Last time I sleep when Gabrielle does the magic. Cold shower now.”
Leah smiled as she rolled over to look at her bed partner, “Cheese?”
He rolled his eyes, “Strange dreams.”
She smiled as she noticed his boxers, “Very good dreams I take it?”
“Scary, unbelievably scary dreams.” He shivered then muttered something.
She chuckled, she was fairly sure he had muttered something about Buffy killing him. “You didn’t answer the question.”
He chuckled darkly, “No I didn’t.”
Leah giggled as she lay back on the bed and thought about her dream of a chained up Xander. She couldn’t help the grin on her face.

Gabrielle felt like resting for a week. Three straight nights of casting had left her pale and sore, and almost like she had a sunburn under her skin. It was an annoying feeling. The fact that she had woken up in a pile of limbs each afternoon hadn’t really helped all that much. Still she had completed several weapons so she was considering it a win. Tiffany’s storm trident was done, as was Morrigan’s life drinking sword. She winced as she remembered casting the enchantments for that. It wasn’t a nice blade at all, oh it was made out of a ruby like material that was treated with magic to be virtually indestructible and looked impressive but the enchantments were more than slightly dark. They hadn’t tested it but if everything had went well every cut on an enemy would heal Morrigan of a like amount. Nasty piece of work, last time she was going to do something like that, ever.

Dawn chuckled as a bedraggled Gabrielle pulled herself into the lounge, “You look like something the cat dragged in.”
“I feel like it, massive headache, and just icky. Next time I want something enchanted I’m leaving it to the enchanters.”
Dawn chuckled, “Or at least not doing a bunch of them in the span of three days with barely enough sleep?”
“Yeah, sorry about the lustful thoughts.”
“I don’t think anyone really minded, Leo locked himself up with his girls and had a grand old time. Xander had Leah, and I had Talsanra, she’s a lot of fun, not the same as having Hermione and Willow in a bed but very fun.”
Gabrielle made her yucky face, “Too much information, mom. I‘ll make sure to put my shields back up next time.”
Dawn chuckled as she reached out and patted her daughter, if not by blood, on the head. She figured a little teasing would be fun, “Oh I don’t know, I had a really fun dream about Xander.”
Gabrielle mock gagged, “Out, out I tell you. Don’t came back without food.”
Dawn chuckled before conjuring Gabrielle a sandwich, “Eat up, we have a long couple of days as we hunt for my ferals to trade for magic types.”
Gabrielle sighed, “Fine.”
