Little Shanna's First Airplane Journey

"Gege! And Mom and Dad, what are you doing?! Come on! There looks like something really fun over there!"

Little Shanna urged impatiently.

The family has now passed through customs and entered the departure hall. Energetic Little Shanna runs around looking at things here and there, touching everything, finding everything fascinating.

"Gege! Gege! Is that big thing the so-called 'airplane'?"

Little Shanna asked curiously.

It's an "airplane".

Bell affectionately patted his sister's hair.

"Yes, we will be taking that to China in a little while."

"Wow, it's huge!"

Little Shanna exclaimed in amazement.

She had never seen such a large vehicle before; it was even bigger than her bedroom.

Comparing it to her own Flying Car, which is only about... a dozen times the size of hers, the interior space is almost the size of her room.

So now, this one is probably... um... many, many planes as big as her, wouldn't the interior space be comparable to a Quidditch Pitch!?

I wonder if she'll be able to play Quidditch with her Gege on the plane later?

￣△￣

Standing in front of her seat, Little Shanna felt that her young heart had been deeply hurt.

How could anyone be so despicable?! They actually tried to deceive a 10-year-old child!

Little Shanna wants to blow something up.

My Gege once said that bad people who deceive children deserve to die!

"What's wrong, Shanna?"

Bell looked at her younger sister with a puzzled expression. For some reason, Shanna, who had been so lively just moments before, had suddenly become quiet as soon as they boarded the plane. Now she was standing in front of her seat, lost in thought.

"Gege, let's go kill those bad guys!"

Little Shanna's face was tense, and she looked very serious.

"What? Who do you want to kill?"

Bell was a little confused; he didn't see any bad guys.

"That's the big bad guy who sold us the plane tickets! How could he let us board this plane? There wasn't even Undetectable Extension Charm used!"

Little Shanna said angrily.

"Yes! That's right! How dare they slander us! We can't let them get away with this!"

Surprisingly, Elena, the mother, also stood on the same side as Shanna.

Looking at the rows of cramped seats, Elena was extremely dissatisfied. They were even cramped than the Knight Bus!

Seeing his father nodding in agreement, and his mother and sister who were already getting ready to pull out their Wand and get to work, Bell stopped them, both amused and exasperated.

"Muggle vehicles don't have the Undetectable Extension Charm applied, and Muggle don't know Curses. So this is normal."

Bell explained.

"But this is too narrow!"

Even after hearing her Gege's explanation, Little Shanna was still very dissatisfied.

She had originally planned to play Quidditch with her Gege on the plane, but now it seems like playing hide-and-seek is more appropriate.

"Bell, could you talk to the ticket seller and ask us to move to a bigger place?"

Elena looked around, seemingly searching for a more spacious spot.

She didn't want her youngest daughter to suffer in such a cramped seat.

"Um, but this is already first class, the most spacious seat."

Bell shrugged helplessly.

Finally, with Bell's reassurance, the group managed to sit down.

However, Bell was unaware at this time that his disastrous journey had only just begun.

Shortly after the plane took off...

"Gege, why does this airplane always make a 'buzzing' sound? It's so noisy! Can you make it quieter?"

Little Shanna pouted unhappily.

The noise from the airplane was interrupting her conversation with her Gege.

"Um... that's how airplanes are. How about I set up a Soundproof Barrier around it?"

After Bell erected the Soundproof Barrier, a while later...

"Shanna, what are you doing?"

Bell looked at her younger sister, who had been touching things by the window since earlier, and asked her curiously.

"Gege, how do I open this window? I feel a bit stuffy and want some fresh air."

"Um... Shanna, the windows on the plane can't be opened."

"Huh!? Why? How can there be such an unreasonable rule?"

Little Shanna was very surprised.

The plane is so cramped, and with so many people, it's bound to be stuffy. And yet, they have a rule against opening the windows for ventilation? Who was the jerk who made that rule?! How could they be so mean?!

Seeing his younger sister about to pull out her Wand to fight the bad guys again, Bell quickly removed the window next to Shanna and then cast a Air Purification Barrier on it. This barrier was specially engraved on the Flying Car to ensure fresh air inside.

A little while later, after the air became fresh...

"Gege!"

Little Shanna suddenly said.

"W-What's wrong, Shanna?"

Bell's smile looked somewhat forced.

"Gege, I want to play with Fina. Can you let Fina out?"

"Um, but..."

Bell was somewhat embarrassed.

Pets aren't allowed on airplanes. And if Fina were to suddenly breathe fire, that would be a real mess.

"Gege, it's so pitiful to leave Fina all alone in the suitcase. I can almost hear Fina lonely cries. And after so long, Fina must miss me terribly!"

Little Shanna stared intently at her Gege.

("Ouch!")

Little Fina sneezed.

It got up and looked around. For some reason, it had suddenly felt a chill.

Finding nothing, Fina lay back down. The thought that it wouldn't be long before she fell into the hands of some Little Demon Queen again filled Fina with sorrow, and even the meat in her mouth lost its flavor.

Bell realized that his sister truly lived up to her reputation; she had mastered the art of blatant lying. She could spout complete nonsense that even she herself wouldn't believe.

"But my Gege wants to play with Shanna by himself, and my Gege..."

"Okay! Okay!"

Before Bell could finish making up an excuse, Little Shanna eagerly agreed.

"Gege, let's play a battle game!"

"Um... Gege doesn't feel like moving right now, let's play Wizard's Chess instead."

Bell would be crazy to play a battle game with Shanna on the plane. If the little girl got carried away, he wasn't confident he could neutralize every one of Shanna's Curses.

Terrorist attacks are such technically demanding things, let's leave them to the professionals.

Shanna happily played Wizard's Chess with her Gege...

"Bell..."

"..."

Bell looked at his father, William, waiting for him to make a move.

"I feel a bit nauseous. Why is this thing called an airplane so bumpy?"

William covered his mouth, his face turning pale.

"No way, Dad! You can drive fast Flying Car and be fine, but you get airsick on a plane?"

Bell said he couldn't understand it, so what exactly is the principle behind it?

William was even less likely to understand.

So in the end, Bell gave his father a bottle of the Living Death Draught, eliminating the possibility of any further trouble once and for all.

William is asleep...

"Gege, are we not there yet?"

Little Shanna glanced at her watch; an hour had already passed since they boarded the plane. In her entire life, she had never experienced spending an hour and still not reaching her destination.

As long as she floores the accelerator of the Flying Car, she can go anywhere within an hour.
