Fairy Wings Are Fire Proof!

Sophie had JUST left the dorm and was heading out to class when disaster struck .... again.
Determined to keep up her grades, she ignored the screaming of the smoke alarm and the panicked yells from the dormies.

Sophie: I KNOW something's wrong, but I can't skip this class (despite a wish springing up saying that she wanted to skip FIVE classes!! NO. WAY!)


 It was a decision she would regret, as the fire took hold and went on a complete rampage.



Yes, that fire woman was still there. For some manic reason, she'd become stuck and was a passing reminder to everyone of the consequences of playing with fire. It obviously fell on deaf ears.

Many dormies tried to put out the flames. Even the fire service was called in. But, sadly, the flames just caught on and it spread.

Sophie dashed back to the dorm, the minute she finished class and helped as much as she could.


At one point I was afraid that her wings would catch on fire and it would be game over for her. But it appears that her wings are fire proof!



Finally, the fire was put out.


But not before we discovered yet another casualty from this disaster.


Yep, another ghost to add to the front garden.


And another visit from Grimmy, who regarded this poor soul with obvious contempt as he pleaded his case.


Ghostly Student: Please, oh please. Save me. Save my soul. Let me live! PLEASE!!!
Grimmy: Sorry, you should have listened to everyone's advice and not play with fire.


Sophie, used to seeing Grimmy, just shrugged her shoulders and set about making Autumn Salad, since the cooker was out of commission, and most of the cupboards were badly burned.* Besides, it was the safer option, considering the circumstances.

Clean up was going to be a total pain this time.


And it didn't help that there were pee puddles and a couple of dormies  were passed out cold on the floor.

*yes, I'm aware that there's a continuity error there as regards the cupboards. I'd just replaced them all at a serious cost to Sophie's bank balance.
