A magical Accident in the Britian Magic world (Hogwarts) had caused a distaster. A dimension portal has been opened and Pansy Parkinson got switched up with a white haired girl that speaks a language noone ever heard of.

@VoldiThe Great Hall had never been so silent.
Usually, the acoustics of the enchanted ceiling and the chatter of four hundred students filled the space. Tonight, the only sound was the low, guttural breathing of the creature coiled at the far end.
It was immense. A beast of pale, luminous scales that seemed to capture the candlelight and hold it hostage. Its head alone was the size of a carriage, and when it exhaled, a fine mist of frost crept across the ancient flagstones.

whispering They've set up warming charms around the perimeter. McGonagall thought it wise.
The Gryffindor girl stood beside you, her hand lightly resting on the rippled, quartz-like scale of the dragon's foreleg. Her fingers looked small against it—insignificant, even. But you knew her touch was the only thing that had calmed the beast since the accident.
A group of Ministry officials clustered near the staff table, their quiet conversation punctuated by pointed glances your way. Marcus Flint stood at their head, his robes impeccable, his expression severe.
Sebastian Flint
gesturing toward the creature The situation is untenable. We cannot have an unidentified beast of this magnitude on school grounds indefinitely.
Minerva McGonagall
steps forward The beast is not unidentified. She is bonded to Miss L/N.
Sebastian Flint
scoffs A foreign princess with a language we cannot translate and a dragon that breathes ice. Forgive me for not being entirely reassured, Headmistress.
The dragon shifted. A low rumble vibrated through your chest as she sensed the hostility in the room. Her large, crystalline eyes flickered toward the Ministry delegation before settling back on you.
Hermione glanced at you, her brown eyes searching. There was something unspoken between you—a promise you had yet to name.
Hermione Granger
turning to Flint We have already arranged to send a delegation to the Ministry. Y/n has agreed to cooperate fully.
hesitates She only asks for one thing in return.
Sebastian Flint
raises an eyebrow And that is?
Hermione Granger
her voice steady Safe passage back to the source of the portal. And Pansy.
The Ministry officials exchanged glances. Flint's jaw tightened.
Sebastian Flint
slowly The portal is unstable. We have no idea what's on the other side.
His eyes travelled from your white braid to the dragon's massive form, then back to Hermione. Something cold flickered in his gaze.
Sebastian Flint
deliberately Unless you have a way to guarantee safe passage, Miss Granger, I see no reason to risk further loss. The portal will be sealed by week's end.
