Her last two experiences here weren't good ones but she was always coming back for the challenges. She wondered if the man from the first time was there. She hadn't seen him the last time, thankfull, but she was interested in how he had taken her powers.

The thestral dips its head suddenly, gives a snort of a protest before diving head long towards the ground intent on impact. Its skeletal form fracturing with the speed of acceleration. Professor Ethelion and Ashlee clinging to its back.
The friction sparks and Erich rolls his eyes from below, where he stands unseen besides Alondra Redson.
(OOC: cross posted in Thestral Riding, where the ride began. )

"WHAT THE-"
Ethelion didn't have time to finish that sentence as he noticed the thestral's strange disobedience to his command.
They plummeted out of the sky; Ethelion clutched Ashlee to himself and grabbed Angelo by the scruff of his neck. Focusing all his concentration he jumped and lifted all three of them off the thestral. WINGARDIUM LEVIOSA
Thanks to the ability to use wandless magic, as he had no time to reach for his wand, the three of them drifted safely to earth.

Alondra looked around completely confused at the situation. One moment was alone and now there was numerous activity around her. She backed away from the scene almost frightened.

The thestral continues to struggle against Erich's indomitable will, bent completely to his call it plummets as a meteor towards Alondra.
"I can do a lot more than drain, mein engel." His barriers rise from the ground, blocking her path and repelling her from the path back to the school.

She swore loudly and out of impulse a force pushed it back, not letting anything within a few feet from her. She cowered to the ground using all of her strength.

Erich, watching her recoil in desperation, chuckles to himself. "Sperre von Minerva," he incants loudly, drawing upon the ambient magic and alondra's own spiritual core, forming the the shield above her head in an instant of glassy light and free falling bone.
The thestral crashes above her, inches away from the crown of her head, emitting a high pitched shriek as its body breaks against the invisible field. Its face, splintered from impact, grinds against the spell, its empty eye sockets locked upon her before the matrix of the forest lets it die.

A little distance away from the thestral's fateful landing, Ethelion was fighting a desperate battle trying to slow their landing.
The ground approached rapidly... too rapidly.
They fell in a tangle through trees, shrubs, and bush. Until finally coming to a rest on the hard earth.
He had the wind knocked out of him. Dazed, he looked around, and then quickly snapped into focus. "Ashlee? Are you okay?"

"Never go for the kill when you can go for the hurt," Erich says coldly, waiting for her to realize she isn't dead.
Yet.

She breathed in traumatized fear and kept close to the ground with the force still around her. She decided to stand up but she never let her gaurd down for she now knew the power of the forest. Alondra was shaking all over and couldn't stop herself. Her knees buckled making her loose her balance but she caught herself in time to quickly regain that balance.

Ashlee had landed a few feet away from the Professor. She opened her eyes when she heard her name and struggled to pick herself up. "I think so." She softly said, still gasping for some air.
She had managed to sit herself up. Ashlee touched her forehead. When A.J brought her hand back down she noticed the blood. "oh crap." She crawled over to the professor. "Are you ok?" she asked worried.

"You're alive!" gasped Ethelion. He sighed. Then noticing the cut on her head, staining her hair, he replied to her question, "i'm ok, more ok than you are. Come here, let's see to the cut."
He pushed himself into a sitting position. He winced but quickly tried dismissed it. He motioned for her to let him see her cut.

Ashlee smiled weakly and sat by him. "Yeah I'm alive. It'll take more than that to kill a Van Dort." Ashee gave a small giggle. She was still slightly straining to breathe but it was slowly getting better. She pulled her hair out of her face and looked down.

"Well, nasty cut, this might sting a bit. But if that fall didn't kill you, this wont either."
Saying that, Ethelion took out his wand and murmured a healing spell. Slowly, the blood dried on her scalp.

Ashlee winced then looked at the Professor. "Thank you." she gave him a hug then sat back. "Are you sure you're ok?"
