Zack went to Luz and immediately whispered, "Erase everyone's memory!" and he went back to meet Anna.

When was the awkward situation with no solution to think of? It was now. Luz turned to everyone, who immediately shifted as far away as possible.

Luz made a big magic circle to put a barrier from them escaping from their current spot. She went to the barrier and closed her eyes and touched the barrier.

"Erase." She said, and a white smoke was appearing on everyone's head.

Zack and Anna were behind Luz and told her that they had kept Boscha in a barrier, erased her memory, kept her to sleep and healed her.

Luz's magic was not enough to make everyone's memory of that incident disappear, and she fell down.

"If only I didn't waste my magic on that dunce."

She muttered to herself and the barrier broke and everybody went back to normal. They went back to their classes, but only 4 people still had that memory with them out of the remaining students.

Zack insisted on following Luz to the infirmary, but she shook her head.

"What should we do with Boscha?"

The barrier holding Boscha disappeared, and Luz went closer to her. She used her shoe to hit Boscha's cheek and scattered her hair.

"This will be a mark of me defeating her."

"Let her stay here. It's what she deserves for talking about my parents."

She clicked her tongue and went to the infirmary.

...

Finally, it was closing. Luz immediately went to her locker to collect her bag, to leave as soon as possible.

When she closed the locker, a familiar face she gazed upon.

"What are you doing here?" Asked the intrigued Luz.

"I just wanted to thank you, for what you did?"

It took some time for Luz to process what she was saying, but she finally figured it out.

"Oh, your fian-"

But before she could finish her sentence, Amity covered her mouth. Amity told her to keep quiet about it and Luz nodded, then shifted back.

"Well, i'll see you tomorrow."

As Luz started to walk away, Amity held her wrists.

"I remember what you did, human. What exactly are you?"

Luz looked at Amity, having a scary aura surrounding her and she started to fear. She didn't let go. She was intrigued.

But Luz sighed.

"People who I worship, please give me a sign."

She thought in her head and Luz saw light reflecting on a mirror. She saw some words written on it and read it in her mind.

"You should not lie. Tell such the truth and she will accept you for who you are. Trust is a two-"

Luz rolled her eyes in frustration to resd the others in her mind.

"Amity. I'm no mere human. There'll be a day I'll explain to you, but can we just-"

Then the blonde haired boy held Amity's hand.

"Amity? What are you doing talking to this... lowlife?"

Luz gave him a petty face. She had gotten so much insults today and that one wasn't even close to 'fire'.

"Z-z-zander? I thought you went home!"

"Why would I leave without my fiancé? Truly, as your fiancé, I need to watch over you. Being your fiancé is no mere-"

Luz yawned and Zander looked at her.

"Fiancé this, fiancé that. You're seriously blind both physically and mentally for you not to see that this girl is uncomfortable around you."

"I'm sure even all genders, including the non-binary people fear you."

She shrugged and sighed.

"By the way Amity, I needed your help with this question. Can I ask it somewhere else so that a certain someone won't disturb us?"

She gave a quick scary glance at him and smiled at Amity.

"Come on, let's go."

...

Luz and Amity went to a classroom that was vacant, and the sun was already setting.

"To think that time would pass by so quickly. It just felt like it was 5 minutes ago that school ended."

Luz turned and Amity hugged her.

"Thank you Luz. I really appreciate it."

Luz had a small blush on her face but Amity shifted back.

"T-t-that doesn't mean I like you or anything!" She exclaimed and turned away, and Luz gave an awkward laugh.

Luz went to the door and looked through the door's window, and saw that Zander was still around the area.

"I don't think this dude is leaving anytime soon, really."

Amity frowned and Luz looked at her and an idea popped into her mind.

"Your house is the Blight Mansion, yeah?"

Amity nodded.

"Then we're going there, right now. Just hold my hand and trust me."

"How will that even be possib-"

"Just take my hand!"

Amity held it and they disappeared. It was like they were traveling through space and in less than 10 seconds, they were at the gate of Amity's house.

"How did you even know my house?"

Amity raised an eyebrow, thinking that she had been stalking her this whole time.

"Because we're neighbours." Luz pointed at her white coloured house, with the red coloured roof, with the most fanciest decorative items.

"You live here!?"

Amity screamed and Luz shushed her.

"Yes, I do. Just my cousins and I."

"But your house is enormous. How can it be only the 3 of you?"

Luz laughed and cleaned a tear of laughter.

"It's for very important work I can't say to you now. I'll told you that I'll tell you when the time is right."

"At the meantime, don't tell anyone about my magic."

Luz walked away, and when Amity blinked, she wasn't at sight.

Luz looked at her from afar and gave a smirk.

"This witch is very interesting. It'll be easy to get information from her. Maybe I can try and tease her, just for the fun of it."

Luz went inside her house and Zack and Anna welcomed her.

"Did you wait for me for too long?"

"Nope!" Zack screamed as he layed lazily on the couch, eating chips and watching series on TV.

Luz dropped her bag and changed her clothes in a jiffy.

Anna came out from the kitchen, after making some bread with peanut butter for herself.

"Where are you going to? It's already late."

Luz looked at Anna and smirked.

"I wanna go tease a fellow neighbour."
