Chapter Text
Luz sat on her seat, wiggling herself excitedly as she waited for the show to start alongside the rest of the audience in the stadium.
The little Latina had managed to convince her mother to take her here just so she could see the show. This better be worth the snacks she will be sacrificing for the next three months.
"Where is she?" Luz felt like complaining out loud as she kept on waiting.
Soon, a ball of light appeared from out of nowhere and shot past the audience like a shooting star. The ball of light circled around the stadium several times before it threw itself toward the stage in the center.
The ball of light stopped above the stage, then slowly descended upon it before it exploded in a bright flash, causing everyone including Luz to instinctively shield their eyes.
When the bright flash faded away seconds later, standing right there on the stage is none other than the star of the show herself.
"The Amazing Azura!" Luz practically cried out excitedly.
The star, Azura, stood on the stage in her iconic hat and white robe with blue highlights, striking a pose with her equally iconic staff, the Emperor Staff.
"Good evening, everyone!" Azura greeted the audience. "I, The Amazing Azura, welcomes you to the amazing world of magic!"
As she finished her greeting, the green-haired witch drew a circle on the stage with her staff, which then started to glow. Soon, orbs of light appeared all over the stadium, many hovering right in front of people's faces.
Luz tried to catch one such orb of light to no avail. But she didn't mind it, because she knew that Azura has more amazing spells to demonstrate for her performance tonight.
Azura continued her performance by drawing another spell circle directly in front of her. This time, dozens upon dozens of fairy-like constructs emerged from the spell circle and flew around the stadium as a synchronized flock. The flock then converged into a single spot, forming a huge orb of light that then morphed into a majestic stallion, prancing around the air above the stadium.
The entire audience are in awe of the sight.
Soon, however, a massive serpent-like creature emerged from behind the stage, producing a menacing hiss as it stared at Azura.
The children among the audience, including Luz, reacted with shrieks. Some of the braver kids actually called out to Azura about the serpent.
Though it seems that the green-haired witch has been expecting the serpent, as she turned to face it with a smirk on her face.
"How dare you show your darkness-reeking self in this land of happiness!" Azura called out to the serpent. "You should not have come! For I am The Amazing Azura, Warrior of Peace and Friend of All Children!" She then declared.
The serpent responded by bearing its fangs at the witch, who apparently has been expecting it.
"Now eat this, sucka!" Azura suddenly pointed the business end of her staff at the serpent and held it like a bazooka. "Light Missile of Peace!"
A fireball is conjured from the tip of the Emperor Staff and then launched like a rocket from a real bazooka at the serpent, who closed its gaping maw around the fireball as it entered its mouth.
Soon after that, the serpent is blown to smithereens from the inside, turning into a shower of beautiful fireworks that had everyone look on in amazement.
Luz became awestruck by the fireworks.
With the serpent dealt with, Azura lowered her staff and held it like a normal staff.
"And so, peace is restored and the day is saved once again!" Azura proclaimed. "All thanks to me, The Amazing Azura, Warrior of Peace!" She then turned her attention back to the audience. "Until next time, everyone!"
Drawing a final spell circle, Azura conjured a pillar of light that shot down from the sky upon her, creating a bright flash of light that caused everyone to instinctively shield their eyes.
When the bright flash is gone a few seconds later, so did Azura herself.
It was on this night that Luz became so awestruck by Azura's performance that she decided to follow in the green-haired witch's footsteps and become a witch herself...
