Boscha was a bit surprised and worried at Luz's sad expression.
"Luz, what happened?"
"Get Amity... then I'll tell you. I'd rather not say this twice."
Luz headed back to the locker room to change as Boscha watched before pulling out her scroll. Whatever this was, it must've been serious of Luz was this down.
'Get to Hexside and hurry. Our sweet light is flickering.' -Boscha.
...
'I'm coming right away.' -Amity.
Suddenly, Amity was next to Boscha, completely startling her.
"How did you get here so fast?"
"I ran here." Amity said, "Let's go."
Before Boscha could react or retort, Amity grabbed her hand and dragged her to the locker room as the rest of the team watch in surprising and confusion.
"Love makes a witch strange." Cat said.
"Yep." Skara and Amelia said with nods.
Boscha and Amity entered, looking for Luz. A locker closing caught their attention as they walked past two rows of lockers before finding Luz back in bed normal clothes and sitting on a bench.
"Luz, what's the matter?"
Luz looked towards them as tears began to build up again, making her sniffle as the guilt was heavy on her heart again.
"A few hours ago, the emperor's coven attacked the house." Luz said as they looked shocked.
"They what?!" They said to Luz.
Luz looked down.
"I tried to fight them off, but one attacked from behind, trying to hit me in the head with an arrow... I was pushed out of the way and... Lilith took the arrow for me." Luz said, "She died and it's all my fault!"
They immediately started hugging her in comfort.
"Luz, it's not your fault. You couldn't have predicted that one of them would attack from behind." Amity said to her.
"She shouldn't have been there!" Luz said, "And...I shouldn't have been here. If I had never come to this place, Lilith wouldn't have had to die."
Luz felt two hard slaps to her cheeks.
"Ow!"
"Don't you dare say that!" Boscha said.
"If you never came here, we wouldn't be together!" Amity said.
"I wouldn't be "me" if it wasn't for you! You helped me become a better person and not just some bitch that cares about status." Boscha said.
Luz looked down, silently crying. Amity and Boscha hugged her.
"You being here has made so many lives so much better. Mine included. I couldn't imagine who I would be if I had never met you." Amity said as she and Boscha rubbed Luz's back.
"It wasn't your fault, she did that because she cared about you." Boscha said, "You know what might help you? Delivering the hammer to its rightful owner."
"The hammer is done?" Luz asked in surprise.
"Yep. And I have the perfect witch in mind." Boscha said as she wiped another tear away from Luz's cheek.
She handed the necklace to Luz.
"Amity, go with her, I need to put the gear away." Boscha said.
"Okay but who did you have in mind?" Amity asked before Boscha whispered it into her ear. "Oh! Good choice."
Luz had a good feeling who Boscha was thinking of. Helping Luz off the bench and wiping away any remaining tears, Amity lead her out of the locker rooms and away from Hexside with the Plant hammer in hand. For some reason, Luz is the only one that can hold the other weapons, even Boscha can't without a special spell that the book told her about, even then she can't hold Luz's sword.
'I wonder if she'll like it.' Luz thought as they reached the home of the witch they wanted the hammer to go to.
They knocked on the door and Willow opened it.
"Willow, is there a place we can speak in private?" Amity asked.
"Oh! Um, sure. Come on in. My dads are out right now, so we have the house to ourselves." Willow said as her palisman, Clover, rested on her head.
They entered the house.
"So, what can I do for you?"
"We were wondering. Push comes to shove; you'd be willing to help us." Amity started.
"Uh, I mean, I did with that creature a while ago."
"I know that, but I mean REALLY help us. Like fighting the Emperor's Coven if you have to." Amity pushed on.
"My answer is still the same, Luz and you are my friends. I'd do anything in my power to help you." Willow said with a firm expression.
"Good." Luz grabbed Willow's wrist and put the hammer in her hand, "Then take this."
Willow looked at the tiny hammer, wondering if it was some sort of charm before it suddenly grew in her hands and became a large war hammer!
"Woah!" Willow said, "What is this!?"
"Yours." Luz said.
