Chapter Text
Belos was struggling to remove the demon from his face.
As the confident witch came crashing through the open wall in her own little bubble next to a statue. Standing up amidst the caused chaos with a bit of Luz's help.
Amity watched from afar through the crystal ball, Hooty was her only company, watching quietly.
Boscha dusted herself off, keeping her voice quiet. "Luz, go. I'll handle him." Flashing a bright smile. Luz took a breath to disagree but watched the emperor.
He slowly ripped King from his mask, throwing him out of the newly made hole in the wall and Luz quickly went to catch him, flying back to the throne room with the little demon.
The wall sealing shut with abominations. Boscha looked the current ruler in the eyes, standing under a statue.
The emperor raised his hand. "This isn't fun anymore." bringing down the axe above his new opponent. She ran under all of the statues as the rest came down, following her path. The magic in here felt gross, tiring, no those weren't the words. She readied her magic, standing tall, casting several strength glyphs, she might have over done it.
Her body felt weighted, she raised her fist and threw a punch, bringing her fist to the floor and shaking the compound. Even Amity felt it a little.
Belos was unimpressed. Casting a spell, Boscha frantically trying to find it, before a fire spell crashed on her head. Quickly she fireproofed her body with a spell, breathing barely through the ever going flames, Belos only increased the ferocity. Boscha's vision began to fade, lack of oxygen from the flames, her life flashing in front of her eyes.
.....
What was she looking at?
"Mami! can we go play in the snow?" One of Luz's memories. Why did she have... oh yeah, oracle track.
The older woman wrapped a coat around Luz, then followed her out.
There was more, Luz was in class.
A large blonde woman was talking,
"-and it uses hot air to travel at its high speeds."
Thanks Luz
.....
Boscha dispelled her strength spells, casting one more on the fire around her, bringing it to follow her shape.
Belos took a step back, the air was hot and dry. "How intri-"
Crack!
With a kick Belos barely saw, his mask became cracked. Boscha slowly lowered the heat keeping her afloat, levitating right above the spot she pounced from, her dark silhouette showing through the fire, her eyes covered by fire.
Belos held his chipped mask to his face. Watching the witch and sending pillars of metal firing at her from the ceiling, she didn't need to turn to jump and land on them, his magic was too distinct, but there was a second scent.
.....
Luz was running through the halls to the last room she though to check as king peered over her shoulder. "You sure she's there?"
The human girl placed a fire spell on the door. "She has to be."
The spells lit up and evaporated the large door, Lilith and Eda packing up the room. "Kid?"
"Eda!" King and Luz running up, catching the witch in a tight hug, Owlbert landing on her head. Eda smiled, but still a little shocked.
"How did you two get here in the middle of an attack, right when I'm about to get out?"
Luz had a guilty smile before realizing the end of Eda's sentence, but before she could respond, King spoke up. "We are the attack!"
Eda looked like she could cry tears of Joy.
.....
Whatever magic Boscha was breathing in was keeping her new spell up pretty well, Belos had done nothing but run and dodge everything but the exceptionally fast hits, turning hot air into speed was quite easy after getting the hang of it. That didn't stop him from attempting spells he had be using as defense. The three-eyed witch had replaced her strength spells
How was she gonna take him down, and get out of...
She looked at his staff.
Big red ball, duh
A loud pop hit the air as Belos' staff was shattered by another kick, the barrier fizzling as he fell over. His breathing was heavy.
She might hate him, but he's still the emperor. She looked around the room for anything to call for help, spotting instead a little blue hat.
.....
Lilith drew her own circle, clearing most of the packed items and getting ready to leave. "What do you mean you are the attack?"
Luz backed away, readying her fire glyphs. "What do you mean to get out?"
The owl lady had a mischievous smile. "I may or may not have swindled Belos."
The human slowly lowered her spells. "Then why is she coming?" pointing to Lilith, who was opening a window out, readying her staff.
Eda smiled more tauntingly this time, wrapping her arm around her sister's shoulder. "Lily here only joined to fix my curse."
The emperor coven's best witch freed herself from her sister's grip. "Now what do you mean, we are the attack?"
Luz had a guilty demeanor before hearing another loud sound, not wanting to waste anymore time. "Can we talk about this back at the house?"
Eda nodded and hopped on Owlbert. "Last one there is washing dishes!"
Lilith sighed, knowing she'd clean them anyway and flew after them.
