Oct Event Log - Portal Chaos
The glowing portal shuddered before slamming shut behind them. It had seemed like a good idea at the time... go through the portal in order to close it from the other side. And it had worked! The portal was closed, the school was safe but the heroes who had worked together to close the portal were now trapped on the other side.
[ OOC - This is the IC log for this. Consider it a freeform playground, take these prompts and run with them or come up with your own. ]
Through the Portal
( Loki, Crowley, Alec, Beetlejuice, Sho )
Silence fell as soon as the portal closed leaving the small group standing in the middle of a crossroads. The ruined archway that ran along the top of the cliffs hinted that there might once have been more of a civilization in this world but now there were only the two pathways, one that ran down the hill into the face of the brilliant red glow that hinted at a flow of magma beyond and one that curved up a hastily cobbled together set of stairs. Of course they were free to stay right where they were as well, here in this craggy passage with the imps peering down at them from every rock and crevasse.
Rescuers
( Aziraphale, Harry, Lena, Eleven, Mal )
With the battle won most begin to relax. There was the wounded to see to and the damage to the school to repair... but gradually the more tuned in students start to notice the missing. Roll calls that were taken but never completed for some were not around to answer to their names. Then one of the injured students comes to and mentions having seen the missing students disappearing through the imp summoning portal. Clearly they were trapped on the other side and it was up to their fellow students to work out a way to bring them back!

The frazzled worry was redirected once word began to spread about a group of students who had sealed the portal with themselves INSIDE. THAT sounded like a demonic plan if ever Aziraphale had heard one (and he had heard many). Of all the harebrained, idiotic-- Crowley had done some foolish things in his time, but this was astoundingly bad even by his standards.
How many students had gone? With the injured and recovering scattered around the campus, it would take far too long to get a proper roll-call. A dozen? Surely not that many people were THAT stupid. Maybe half a dozen, the more foolhardy among them, or those with something to prove...
They didn't even know WHERE the portal went to, other than that the imps had come out of it. Attempting to Sunder at random seemed like an even stupider idea than what had gotten them into this mess. If there was something to focus on, somewhere to direct his efforts...
Two years ago, Aziraphale had attempted to summon Crowley into this world with sundering magic. When that had failed, they had swapped bodies for a time. Not entirely the worst sort of outcome if summoning Crowley failed. Perhaps on the other side, Aziraphale might even be able to open a portal back.
Or at least Crowley would be safe.
"In light of recent events, I suppose it would be in bad form to suggest summoning a demon?" Not that he intended to take No for an answer. "Good, right, well." Time to start on those glyphs.

Besides, he is pretty used to breaking the school rules just to get the job done and save the day, which sounds very Slytherin of him.
“So which glyphs should we try to use first?” he asks the angel as he brings out his Glyphics notebook and begins to pour through the notes to see if there is anything the rescue team could use for the mission.

"The two of you cannot possibly be that stupid," she said, flatly, coming over, arms crossed.
Then again, now that she saw which two it was, perhaps they could.

Her cat familiar Marly is napping beside her: curled up into a ball and purring in bliss after the fight with possessed wizards and imps in the school. Now she doesn't have Glyphics as part of her schedule for the time being, but she is probably one of the few Sundered who has an artistic talent, so she could learn to see how glyphs work in real time.
