Back to the owl house English version

The other side of the portal

The city of witches was just as the book narrated it, archaic and strange creatures, but civilized walking through the streets, the child is stunned observing everything from the alley where it came from so as not to attract attention, if everything in the book was true it means that There were no humans there and it could be dangerous.

On the walls of that alley there were dozens of wanted posters, some new and some older and scrapped, each one had a more strange drawing than the other, portraits of creatures he had never seen, not even in his mother's books. One caught the attention of Carlos, "lus the human", that was all he needed to know that his mother had never lied. Taking out his cell phone, he took a photo of the poster while he smiled when he saw it, it was a great portrait and his reward was incredibly high, his face changed from one second to another when he thought about what he had done, this only made the need to apologize with her mom for being rude to her.

It was time to go home and face things, but the door was not there, the entrance through Carlod came now was just a wall with posters, a dead end, he had no idea how to return to his world. In desperation he hit the wall but it was still useless.

-and now, what am I going to do?

Holding the book to his chest, he realized that maybe he knew what to do, find someone from the book, if the world exists, they too, right? Some old friend of his mother's can help. The problem is that he didn't know what they looked like, or where they were, he didn't even know where he was.

-Maybe I should ask a policeman or whatever is here to find out what directions or guidance.

No, that would be a bad idea, here I am the son of a wanted criminal, although it has been a long time since she was here, maybe they no longer remember her, right?

He muttered to himself making strange gestures with his hands going around in circles about what to do, he drew the attention of a vigilant guard who was passing by with an ice cream.

-Hey kid! What are you doing, this are not hours to play in the dark.

-Well.. I was, I- emm..

The guard stares at the child who was in front of a large poster of one of the most wanted witches on the Boiling Islands "Luz the Human"; He looked at the poster and then at the child, another time she looked at the poster and again at the child. After a few seconds he came to the conclusion that they were the same person, and how to blame him, they are almost the same except for an insignificant gender difference.

-Titan- You are her!!

The boy was a little scared at the reaction of the guard with a strange mask, when he saw the wall he understood what he was referring to, he tried to deny it as much as he could, but he seemed deaf to any word and with a simple spell of plants I tied him up and raised him easily to bring it before the law.

-This will impress the captain, maybe i will get a promotion or raise for capturing the human, maybe both!

-Luz the human is as girl, im a boy!

-the files say that she identifies himself as a non-binary or non-generic person, but you should know that right? Luz the human.

-My name is Carlos!

-Call yourself whatever you feel most comfortable, human or not wont't change the fact that it's you, little round ears.

-Don't call me that you cone face!

-What a rude human, will they all be like that?

The boy continued to complain in the arms of the guard who turned deaf while he was carrying him like a sack, and in the delegation they left him in an interrogation room to wait for the arrival of the captain.

maybe two hours had passed since Carlos sneaked out of the house, it was time for dinner, and Luz went to knock on the door of his room, she never felt angry about what she had said, but she did feel that the atmosphere would be uncomfortable between them ..

Carlos .. dinner is here, I order a pizza, without olives as you like, will you go down for a few pieces?

Look, I know it is difficult to imagine that everything I say is real, in your position I will not know if I would believe it, but these experiences that I had, changed my life and the way I had to see the world, the people I met, the things that I learned, the things that I ate and almost killed me, God that place was the worst part, but seriously I would like to be able to show you myself that place so strange and great, maybe at some point for some strange miracle it will be possible for us to go, what do you say , you would like to go?

By not obtaining any answer, she decided to take a deep breath and enter.

-Honey, im going in..

.

.

amor?

.

.Carlos?

The room was empty and dark, only the cold of the night enters through the window that had been left open.

-He ... no, he wouldn't run away, he's a good boy, he won't do something like that, besides, there are still his things.

A strong breeze made Luz cover his face, turning around and seeing his books on the desk made her realize what happened. He only believes in what is seen. That is the thought of her incredulous thirteen-year-old son, surely he is in the forest.

Without hesitating a second she went to the abandoned house in the forest, there were recent footprints marked in the dirt of the old boards, half a footprint on the door, but there was no footprint inside the house, a portal could not be opened just for him, right? She opened and closed the door without stopping in desperation.

-Please!! What, does this damn house only allow puberts to enter another dimension or what!? Cannot be!!

This situation only caused him anxiety and made him cry, his little boy is in the most dangerous place in any world, alone, defenseless, lost, and worst of all, she could not go for him, she did not have the ability to go where he was , I could not communicate with anyone there, what do I do!?

It only remained to be left with anguish looking at a closed door and waiting for it to open by itself, an unbearable punishment for any mother.
