Chapter 2: A Lying Witch and a Warden

Good Witch Azura is faced off by a giant dark purple Gildersnake who calls her a foolish child saying that she could swallow her whole.

This was not what the audience expected but the Azura book fans were excited.

Azura tells him not to underestimate her for she is warrior peace and tells him to eat this as she uses her magic staff as a bazooka to fire at the Gildersnake. Gildersnake calls dying his only weakness as he is down.

"I think dying is everyone's weakness." Luz spoke to some laughing.

It shows Luz using her Azura figure and a snake to re-enact her book report while in the principal's office with Camila there, Luz said she thought that she knocked it out of the park.

"You have Azura toys in the human world?" Gus asked amazed as does others taking Luz by surprise.

"You know of Azura, this is awesome!" Luz thought with glee as Amity was silently wondering how to go about asking acquiring one of them.

Principal Hal said the book report is why she is there as outside the office door there are students running away from snakes with Luz saying that is where the backup snakes are.

"How did you get all those snakes in the first place?" Camila decided to ask and Luz couldn't remember.

"Live animals are pretty normal for book reports at Hexside." Principal Bump spoke up as Luz was interested.

Camila asked what she was going to do this several rockets strapped together and Luz said that it was for the act three closer.

"I am more concerned about how you got your hands on that than I am about the snakes." Camila said as Luz looked down sheepishly.

The Human Appreciation Society members looked at Luz quizzically and she told them "just something that can be used to help celebrate things and light up the sky! Kind of dangerous though..."

"And illegal." Camila said as Luz looked sheepish as well.

Luz looks down as Camila kneels down calling her Mija saying that she loves her creativity but it has gotten out of hand.

Amity looked on seeing Luz getting scolded but softly and with concern and not anger and disappointment; a hint of jealousy appeared in her head.

Camila asks if she knows why she was in the principal's office the last three times:

Eda smirked right up into her seat anticipating what would be revealed about her student.

Luz is in a dress at tryouts for Romeo & Juliet as she pretends to stab herself with a plastic spoon and out comes stringed sausages as fake guts.

"A human play; these families hate eachother but these two kids fall in love. One fakes her dead and the other one doesn't realise she is faking so kills himself and she kills herself to end it." Luz explained to everyone as some looked interested in this play.

Luz is making a model of a baby griffin and saying for the touch spider breath as spiders come out of its nose.

"The other students laughed at me for thinking griffin have spider's breath; well I sure managed to show them... Well I would if they were there to see it but still... Luz was right!" Luz shouted out loud as the audience were more weirded out by the fake griffin that Luz had put together than the actual spiders.

Luz is at cheerleader tryouts as she shows her eyelids inside out for a trick.

The Hexside students didn't think it looked like that big a deal as Eda was open mouthed and Luz muttered about thinking that she thought that she could have found friends in the Cheerleaders.

"That's it? That's it? THAT'S IT?" Eda jumped out of her seat looking angry and disappointment, "I have clearly taught you nothing. That junk is nothing compared to the stuff that I got up to in Hexside!" Eda shouted as Bump got up to glare at Eda.

"Oh, I am very much aware Edalyn... We still have the ghosts in the girls' locker room!" Bump snapped at her as Eda looked proud of herself and Camila decided that she had better work hard to lessen this witch's influence on her Luz.

Camila says that they love that she expresses herself but said that if she can't learn to separate fantasy from reality then she should spend the summer at Reality Check Summer Camp showing off a pamphlet.

Camila thought of how happy she saw Luz was in the Boiling Isles and wondered if this would have been better than Luz being at the Camp. Would Luz have come back as a sad little shadow of herself? "Wait, did the Camp notice when I didn't arrive..." Luz asked and Camila had no answer.

Luz tells her not to worry as she won't let her down and says no more weirdness just as her snake launches itself at Principal Hal. Luz asks if that counts.

There was some giggles as King asked "wait, you gave in so easily? Why not rebel back and establish your power?"

"I didn't want to get into trouble again King and disappoint my mum." Luz fired back as Camila thought of how guilty and scared Luz was for disappointing her.

Luz is looking down while waiting outside the house as Camila comes out the door hugging her. Camila asks her not to worry about summer camp as it's only for three months and she will be busy balancing cheque books and learning to appreciate public radio that the time will fly by.

Most audience members (even Bump) muttered about how boring that sounded.

Luz says she doesn't like any of that stuff and she likes editing anime clips to music and reading fantasy books with convoluted backstories as she brings out her book.

"I have gotten many subscribers and some are giving suggestions; though there is this one asking I bend my rules by doing Disney's Robin Hood and do the end theme tune of this old British show called Maid Marian and her Merry Men." Luz spoke up thinking about her work proudly as some were asking about what is anime.

Mija says her fantasy world is holding her back and asks if she has any friends that are not imaginary, drawn or reptilian.

"Have Gus and I as friends now!" Willow said speaking up with a smile as Luz waved to her and Camila took notice of this.

Luz looks down and goes to the bin as Camila says the summer camp is a chance to make some friends asking if she can do that. Luz says yes as she puts the Good Witch Azura book in the bin.

The Azura fans were aghast including Amity as Camila told Luz "Luz, I didn't say anything as I didn't believe you were seriously doing that but I didn't want you give up your interests or creativity... Just tone down it down and learn to separate fantasy from reality. I am sorry that I gave you the impression that you had to throw your book away to make me happy." Luz smiled as they shared a hug with Eda muttering that the sappiness is making her sick.

Camila gets a buzz on her phone saying that she has to go to work and says to text her when she gets there as the bus is coming soon. She finishes it up while speaking in Spanish and she kisses her and leaves.

"She was telling me to take care of myself and good luck." Luz explained to everyone else there.

Luz tells her goodbye and notices the book is not in the trash and then notices Owlbert with a sack with the book in it. Owlbert leaves as Luz chases after him to an old wooden house. Luz goes in as the doors closes and there is a glow inside.

"Wish that I stayed and I wished that I could said that I wouldn't have gone inside but being confounded by an owl stealing the book with the sack..." Camila had to admit and Luz smiled. Camila was glad that this didn't turn out to be one of those old cabins from those horror movies that she had seen on the TV late at night.

The magic door opens up as Owlbert comes out followed by Luz telling him to stop adorably hopping away. Luz looks at the stuff around thinking that she thought that she had a lot of weird stuff and picks up a misshapen doll.

The audience grimaced at that and Eda muttered about them not appreciating treasures.

Luz hears Eda saying finally he's back; Luz looks behind the curtain and notices Eda looking through the bag as Owlbert lands on Eda's staff and is turned to transform back into his wooden self.

"Does he actually think and feel when he is like that?" Luz asked as Eda just shrugged.

Eda looks through a cell phone, a ring and a golden chalice calling them garbage as she picks out novelty pull out eyes glasses saying that it will make her rich.

HAS members were interested and Luz and Camila just giggled together as Eda glared at them.

Eda brings out the Azura book saying that it will make good kindling putting it over the candle fire as Luz is open mouthed as she jumped out and took it back from her. Luz goes back to the door as it closes and folds up disappearing.

"Guess I gave you a scare there Luz, sorry about that." Eda told her but Luz said no hard feelings.

Eda is holding up the key saying that she is not going anywhere. Luz puts the book in her bag as she tries to escape through the back of the tent. She reaches a dead end as she notices the buildings down below. The different residents are walking around as Luz asks what is going on as a small fairy comes up to her and Luz asks if she is there to tell her that this is all just a fantastical dream.

The Audience looked scared and muttered about Luz shouldn't be too close to one of those.

The fairy says to give her skin opening up her mouth as Luz swats it away.

Camila was muttering about remembering this if she ever sees a fairy in a movie or show again and Luz giggled.

Luz asks if she has died and is in the bad place as Eda holds onto her shoulder saying that she wishes.

"I would like to send you there myself Eda." Camila told her glaring with her arms crossed.

Luz s put down onto a stool muttering that she is sorry and that she just wanted her book. Luz says if she wants to eat her skin then do it now as Eda asks why she would eat a potential customer as Luz sees that is a human collectibles stall. Eda shows some items she is offering as Luz laughs.

"Hardly anyone would buy your junk if they knew what is was you were selling as valuables." Camila said as Eda looked affronted.

"Wait, so is the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy book you sold me not an actual guide to the human world's galaxy?" The girl whose face was only an eye asked out loud as Eda had no answer and ignored the question.

Luz takes the shadow box showing human misery as she takes batteries from a tray to put it on with a workout show on.

The audience were mesmerised as Camila giggled and Luz smiled.

"Wow Mittens, this human friend of yours is kind of cool." Emira spoke up as Amity angrily shouted at her to shut up as she looked back to her seat. Luz noticed Emira giggling with Edric smiling next to her.

"My older siblings and if you know what's good for you then you will never talk to them." Amity explained to Luz looking angry as Camila frowned at Amity.

Did Cornholio seat them together because he found amusement in this girl's grudge against her daughter?

The sound allures the browsing customers in the marketplace making offers. Luz introduces herself as Eda takes the money from the customers saying it was pretty clever for a human. Luz thinks it's a weird thing for another human to say as Eda introduces herself as Eda the Owl Lady the most powerful witch on the Boiling isles as Luz is amazed.

"I think that would be Emperor Belos or Lilith herself." Amity spoke up as Eda glared at her and Luz was silent not wanting to stir up her ire after what Amity's sister had said to already get her riled up.

An Emperor's Coven guard comes in busting the TV and shows off the wanted poster with a portrait of her and King on it; he says that she is busted for misuse of magic and demonic misdemeanours. Luz mutters about her being a witch criminal as the guard says that she is coming with him to the Conformitorium. The guard says that Luz is coming too for fraternising with a criminal as Luz protests.

Willow and Gus glares at this and so does Camila, Luz didn't know Eda and yet was already being treated as an accomplice.

Eda gets out her staff to knock him back while floating her stuff away and uses her key to bring in the briefcase which was previously the door while putting all the stuff in her bag. She tells Luz to follow her as she says that she won't let him hurt her as a human is more valuable to her alive than dead.

"Good to know that Luz is valuable to your alive when she could help you." Camila spoke up glaring at Eda once again.

Luz was about to ask as Eda lifts up her staff taking Luz by the arm as they fly off on the staff like a magic broom. The guard says that she won't get away with this but then realises that she did.

There were laughs at this and Luz couldn't help but notice Amity giggle for a second before going back to her stoic self.

Eda tells Luz who is holding onto her book that she can open her eyes now, Luz holds on as she realises that they are in the air asking what is this place. Eda explains that this is the Boiling Isles where every myth that humans has is caused by a little bit of their world leaking into her's.

"Does this include the pantheon of gods? I did an extensive report of Zeus of the Greek Gods and how his dad eat his siblings when they were babies to stop them from overthrowing him and Zeus's mother saved him by tricking her husband into eating a stone covered by a blanket. Zeus even had him poisoned to spit out his siblings fully grown! I got my first A Plus on that report!" Luz said proudly as the audience were mostly grossed out but intrigued by the myths the human worlds has.

"I... Can't say that we are responsible for those myths then..." Eda told her.

A griffon flies by spitting out spiders vindicating Luz.

Luz was proudly smirking at the screen.

Eda explains about the various mythical creatures including giraffes which they banished and called them freaks as they land.

"I don't think I will ever look at giraffes the same way again..." Camila muttered and Luz was in agreement.

Eda's hand came off and shakes Luz off the staff saying that it happens sometimes, Luz says that she has enough adventure for one day as this isn't clearly the PG rated fantasy world that she dreamed about.

"I was surprised to find even this place was too much for even you." Camila told her and Luz smiled.

"Well this place didn't look like the happy endings kind of story place." Luz replied.

Luz asks if she can help her get back home which Eda responds only if she helps her first.

Camila just glared at Eda who didn't bother reacting.

Eda brings her to the Owl House and Eda answers Luz about if she was worried about the guards finding her by saying that the house has a state of the art defence system. Hooty asks for the password as Eda pokes him in the eye saying to let them in as Hooty says that she never lets him have any fun.

Most of them were weirded out by the appearance of Hooty.

He opens mis mouth all the way up to let them through and closes with a burp as if he just eat them.

They then felt grossed out at this even Luz who never noticed Hooty burping after letting them in first.

Eda welcomes her to the Owl House where she hides away from the pressure of modern day life as well as the cops as well as ex-boyfriends.

Audience members were batting an eye at this.

Luz calls it beautiful and asks if she lives here all alone. They hear thumping as Eda explains that she has a roommate.

King's voice is heard asking who dares intrude upon him King of Demons as his shadow makes him look more impressive as he is finally shown in a duck shower cap and towel as well as a rubber duck. Luz scoops him into a hug saying that he is so cute as King is screaming.

More Hexside students were cooing at King who looked back and ranted at them.

Eda gets Luz off as she introduces her saying she is here to help with their situation with Luz saying that she doesn't like the sound of it. Eda explains that King was once a mighty king of demons until his crown of power was stolen and he became this as Luz has once again have him into a hug.

"I don't actually buy this story Mija." Camila told Luz and she had to agree.

Eda explains the crown is being held by an evil Warden Wrath locked behind a forcefield where only a human can break through. Eda says that she will send her back if she helps her retrieve the crown plus who could say no to King's cute face as King begs her not to encourage Luz.

There were more laughter at this.

Luz says that she doesn't really have a chance as Eda drags her away and King tells his rubber duck that they will soon drink the fear of those who mock them.

This made King look more adorable to the audience.

Luz asks where they are going and Eda says somewhere super fun as they are now at the Conformitorium for those considered unsuitable for society. Luz notices their wanted poster as Eda says they were never caught as they are too slippery.

King says him and Luz will sneak up to the top of the tower where they are holding his crown and Eda says she is going to make sure that the Warden is distracted. Luz asks if she needs a disguise as she pulls up her hoodie with the cat ears which King says it's hideous and Eda says that she will fit right in as Eda uses a spell circle to bring them off the ground.

"Wow she actually looks cute with her hood like this, what am I thinking?" Amity thought in her head as she didn't let her thoughts affect how she looked.

They are holding onto a window ledge as Eda uses her staff to fly up saying to meet them at the top of the tower. They both climb through the window as they see those in their cells. Luz says to someone with fangs that she isn't a criminal and the person replied that the stupid Warden liked to lock up those who don't fit in like her who writes fanfics of food falling in love.

"...Odd but people have their own interests..." Camila couldn't help but say but the audience looked weirded out by the mere thought of food fanfiction.

Someone says he is there because he likes eating his own eyes and Tiny Nose says that they are agents of free expression with the fanged one saying that she is really big into conspiracy theories.

"Pretty harmless for a conspiracy theorist." Luz said and Camila gave her a look that said she agreed.

Luz says that none of them did anything wrong and they are all just a bunch of weirdoes like her.

"I admit that I got carried away while in school but you have to admit Mum that they didn't do anything wrong, okay weird but nothing worth being locked up for!" Luz asked her Mum and she nodded in agreement but the audience didn't sound like they agreed with her.

The fanged one says to hide as Warden Wrath is coming and Luz hides in a cell.

Wrath says that he can hear them asking what the prisoners are whispering about and picks up Eda's wanted poster saying that he will get his hands on her soon enough. Tiny Nose distracts Wrath with her rhetoric as he opens her cell and picks her up saying that this is a lesson that there isn't a place for society for them if they can't fit in.

This scared the audience but they remembered that they saw Tiny Nose walking about in the Boiling Isles so she had to end up fine.

He walks away as Luz gets out and tries to release the cells and complains about her weak nerd arms as the fanged on says to just get out and enjoy freedom for them.

Luz was thinking that she was glad that she ended up saving them.

Luz looks down and walks away through a hall as Eda comes saying that Wrath is distracted torturing Tiny Nose but Luz just walks to the contraband room. King is excited for his crown as Luz says that it's not fair that the prisoners are here just for wanting to be themselves and wonders why people think being a weirdo is so bad as King gets the door open.

"I never wanted you to think that it was a bad thing to be yourself Luz. Just wanted you to know when to keep yourself in check." Camila told her and Luz smiled.

They go in and King attempts the forcefield as Luz passes through it and sees the crown on top of a pile of junk. She brought out a Burger Queen crown as King puts it on his head.

The audience were confused but Cornholio came up to Luz and told her "at this point I ended up regretting letting your Mum have an early showing. You missed her falling out of her chair in laughter!" Luz was amazed as Camila angrily denied any such thing had happened.

Luz says the crown doesn't give him any powers and Eda replies that King and her don't have much in this world but eachother so if the dumb crown is important to him then it's important to her and besides them weirdoes have to stick together.

Eda smiled at both Luz and King who smiled back.

Wrath finds them and decapitates Eda as Luz catches her head with her saying ow saying that she hates it when it happens.

"Definitely nothing PG here." Luz muttered as the audience were freaked out by this.

"Oh I don't know; Disney Plus calls it a 6+." Cornholio said making his phone appear to check to everyone's confusion.

Wrath says he finally has them cornered as he takes the crown from King crushing it saying that he knew she would come running if his guards took her pet's toy.

"I can get you a replacement crown King." Camila offered to King who reacted with glee.

Eda asks what he wants and Wrath says he wants her to go out with him as he has a bouquet of flowers.

Not a single jaw of someone who wasn't there was closed in revelation to that.

The guards cheer him on as Wrath says he found her always eluding capture alluring with Luz saying that she hates everything that he is saying right now.

The room was filled with agreements.

Wrath retaliates and catching her causing her to drop Eda's head which he picks up by the hair. Eda looks to Luz and King being picked up by a guard and pretends to say yes before spitting in his face causing him to drop Luz.

Eda had a high five with King over that.

Luz drops Wrath out with Eda's staff as Eda's body pulls the guards' hoods up over their heads getting King back and Eda's head gets the staff to get them flying off with Wrath giving chase. Luz asks Eda to help open up the levers letting the prisoners go and flies through the door. Wrath manages to send them down to the ground as Eda gets her head back on. Eda gives her the key to go back to the human world and sends her flying on the staff. Wrath takes off his mask to reveal a face filled with teeth that is spitting out fire.

Amity was reminded of a kid that she reads stories to at the library.

Eda fights back and Luz flies down to the hole in the ground with the prisoners asking why they are not using their chance to escape and they says the warden will always catch them and they belong there. Luz says they have a different way of doing things and it makes them weird but awesome with them weirdoes have to stick together with nobody punished for who they are.

"Oh I don't know Luz, what if someone is a cannibal who likes burning puppy houses down and roasting people alive..." Cornholio spoke up and Luz was just open mouthed.

"I know you go overboard but I understand what you meant Luz." Camila told Luz which calmed her down.

This rallies the prisoners as they charge at Wrath just as he has Eda and King backed into a corner, Wrath is now tied up as Luz recites Azura's words from her book.

The Azura book fans thought this was cool even Amity though she was able to hide her face from everyone.

She takes out her rockets and fires it at Wrath's mouth with his flames igniting it and sending out fireworks.

"How did I not notice that you still had that?" Camila questioned.

"That is so cool..." Skara spoke up in awe and there were mutterings of agreements with some thinking about joining the HAS now.

King calls it one of Eda's better break ups as they fly away with the fireworks going off.

Eda glares at everyone who bursts into laughter at this.

Back at the Owl House; Eda gets the door open as Luz looks hesitant and gives King the crown from her Azura figure and Eda gives her the book back along with the Reality Check pamphlet. Luz calls it the most fun that she ever had and that she doesn't fit in at home with her not fitting in there and if she stays then they could not fit in together.

Luz feels her mother pulling her in close.

Luz crushes the pamphlet and says she wants to stay and become a witch like her and Azura, Eda says humans can't become witches and Luz says maybe it's because they haven't tried. Eda says she will teach her to be a witch but she has to work for her before she learns any spells.

"Mum, I..." Luz spoke up but Camila shook her head though she didn't look angry.

"We will talk about this later." Camila told her and Luz relaxed.

Luz hugs them both and finds her room in the Owl House and gets out her framed photo of her and Camila hugging.

Amity looked down jealous as none of the pictures that she has with her parents has anything like this, any smiles are forced on her end.

Camila texts her asking how summer camp is and Luz looks guilty as King comes in with a toy bunny and Luz silently offers her a place on her sleeping mat. Luz smiles and replies on her phone that she's gonna like it here as she falls asleep.

"Can't say that it's not eventful." Camila told her as Luz smiled more as some thought King and Luz looked adorable.

DISNEY'S THE OWL HOUSE

CREATED BY DANA TERRACE

"So is this like one of those titles at the end things that superhero movies are doing?" Luz asked as Cornholio smirked.

The credits are shown Luz walking through the Boiling Isles and comes back to the Owl House to meet Ed and King waiting for her there.

People thought this sequence looked nice.
