"Mine?!" Willow said in shock.

"Yes, it's a special weapon Boscha made that only you can wield. Just like my sword." Amity said as she transformed her abomination blade, "Except for Luz, she can hold all of them."

"We don't know how but that's beside the point." Luz said as she waved her hand.

"You... you trust me?"

"Always." Luz said as she and Amity smiled to her.

"So, why don't we go somewhere large and see what this can do?" Amity suggested.

"Uhhh, sure." Willow said as she slowly smiled, standing up with her new war hammer. "Though, I was never one for weapons, I think I may like this thing."

Looking at it, she saw her reflection.

"That's not all." Luz said, handing her an armor watch, "You'll need that as well."

"Oh! Is this one of those armors you and Amity have?" Willie asked as she took the watch.

"Yep. Now you've got one too." Luz said.

"Go on, try it." Amity said, "I recommend taking the glasses off first. Boscha learned that the hard way."

"Oh! Well than I'll just take these off." Willow said, taking off her glasses and handing them to Clover before she put on the armor watch.

Willow pressed it and she was covered in dark green armor.

"Whoa!" Willow let out, her voice digitized and lower.

"Yeah, it feels strange at first, but you'll get used to it." Amity said.

"This is so cool." Willow said as she looked over herself.

"Yeah, now, let's see you and that hammer in action."

Nodding to them, Willow followed them out of the house and brought her to a small clearing inside of the woods. Willow stood in the middle as Luz and Amity sat on the side to watch her.

"Any specific instructions?" Willow asked them.

"It should come naturally. Just swing it."

Willow looked at the war hammer before giving a shrug, a hammer was a simple weapon to swing. Nothing to complicated.

"Here goes nothing." Willow said as she firmed her grip and raised the hammer into the air.

She slammed it on the ground, shaking the Isles as trees grew around them.

"Whoa!" They all let out as they stumbled.

"A lot more power than I thought." Willow said as she lifted the hammer up, gazing at it in awe.

"Yeah, powerful hammer for a powerful witch." Luz said.

"You'll do great things with that." Amity said.

"Yeah, but I think I'll need more practice with it, so I don't sink the isles." Willow said as she transformed her hammer into a bracelet and undid her armor into a watch.

"Hey, we all needed a little work. You'll do great when you get used to it." Amity said.
"Yeah, I'm sure you'll be a natural." Luz said as Clover flew over with Willow's glasses in tow.

"Thank you, Clover." Willow said as she took her glasses back and put them on, "You're a good palisman. So, how's the relationship?"

"Well, Boscha keeps using transformation magic on me." Luz said.

"Because you do stupid stuff." Amity said, "Which I love, but still."

"That's just the Luz experience. I always do stupid stuff for the ones I love." Luz said to Amity.

"Still... don't go on dangerous missions by yourself." Amity said.

"Are you still on this?!" Luz asked.

"Yes. Let it be a reminder to NOT go off on your on again." Amity said with her arms crossed.

"But I thought you forgave me for that!" Luz said to her.

"Hehehehe, oh Luz. Boscha and I will NEVER forgive you for worrying us like that." Amity said with a small chuckle.

"Do I want to know what you're talking about?" Willow asked.

"No." Both girls said.

"Really? Because I feel I should." Willow said as she and Clover glanced at each other.

"It's a girlfriend problem." Luz said, "And they're blowing it out of proportion."

"You almost died!" Amity said.

"That's normal for me, even before the Monado!" Luz said before holding up a finger. "Wait, that came out wrong!"

"Jeez, you guys' sound like you need counseling." Willow said.

"I'll say." Boscha said, walking out of the new tree line, "I felt the quake from the other side of town. That hammer is strong."

"I think it's the person holding it that's strong." Luz said.

"Thank you but I think I should head home. Don't want you to change the subject with your girlfriends." Willow said as she and Clover left.

"No wait, Willow!" Luz called out to her, somewhat begging.

"Thank you, Willow. Now about that comment you made about almost dying being normal for you." Amity said as she turned to Luz, her arms crossing.

"Oh, would you look at the time, I should go-"

Boscha hit Luz with a spell, leaving a potted plant in her place.

"Nice try, but you aren't going anywhere." Boscha said, "Pick her up, Mittens, let's get her to my house."

"Gladly." Amity said as she picked up the potted plant that was Luz. "I think Luz needs time to think about how the people she loved are effected by her definition of "normal.""

"Me too. Now that she has us, I think she needs to reaffirm her the "normal" she's come to expect in the demon realm." Boscha said.
