Siblings Stick Together (An Owl House fanfic)

Chapter 3

A/N: Apologies for the extremely late update. School combined with writers block and procrastination doesn't help in the slightest. Anygays, enjoy this chapter.

Everyone slept until about 12 in the afternoon, wondering how they got in their beds. Luz and Hunter decided not to tell anyone about what had happened, so they stayed quiet. "So what all happened last night?" questions Camilla.

"Yeah. Last thing I remember is having dinner waiting for Luz and Hunter." replies Gus. "Speaking of which, what happened to you both?"

Luz went stiff, Hunter just standing there trying to think of a better excuse than buying cars. "We we're just..double checking the graveyard. Make sure we didn't miss anything."

"Well then in that case, how about we go out for brunch?" suggested Willow hoping to lighten up the mood.

Everyone agreed and got ready to head out. They decided to walk to enjoy the scenery and calm their minds. Two minds, however, weren't calming anytime soon. They get to the restaurant and get seated. "So...what do you all want to do after brunch?" questions Vee. "It's the weekend after all."

"How about we go to the arcade?" suggests Luz, hoping to distract the others about last night.

Everyone agreed and began to decide what they all wanted to eat. About 45 minutes pass and everyone finishes eating. There wasn't much of a delay since the group was the only people in the restaurant at the time. Nothing too bad happened except for the fact that Hunter got flashbacks from the previous night from the sight of pancakes (flapjacks as some would call them).

Camila escorted everyone to the arcade and gave them enough money for a couple hours and a few rounds of laser tag. Camila went home to clean up the house a bit and relax for a while. Luz made sure to keep an eye on everyone, seeing as how she was the only one who's actually been to an arcade. "So what games should we play first?"

"How about that one over there?" asks Amity. Luz looks over to what her girlfriend was pointing at. "That one looks like fun."

"That racing game? Yeah, we can play that." Luz exclaimed. "And since there are six spots, we can all race each other!"

"And set bets on who wins!" Suggests Vee and Gus, both with a bright smile. Everyone agrees and walks to the machines. The group decided to set a bet of a dollar to the winner from everyone else.

"I'm warning you all. I have the highest record of first-place winnings. But I'll go easy on you all." Luz says with a smug expression.

Half the machines imitated a car while the other half resembled a motorcycle. Luz, Vee and Hunter took the motorcycles, leaving the cars to Amity, Willow and Gus.

Luz ended up getting last place with Hunter taking first. "How the hell did you beat me?" questions Luz.

"Controlling this was similar to riding on a staff," answers Hunter. "And Flyer Derby really helps with maintaining control."

A few more hours pass by and everyone starts heading back to the house. They played a few other games, a few rounds of laser tag, and got some snacks. Everyone was calm, even Hunter and Luz. That is until Hunter had seen something. "What the?" Hunter looks behind him thinking he saw Belos. "Hey guys, I think I just saw Belos."

Luz got paranoid and almost started to panic. She remembers the night before, knowing she got rid of Belos for good. "Hunter, you're probably seeing things."

But Hunter didn't believe it. He knew what he saw. Everyone decided to hurry back in case what Hunter saw was real. Once the gang was safe at the house, they were at ease. Camila had made dinner and asked everyone to wash up before sitting down. Once the food once served, Camila asked about the arcade. "It was really fun!" Willow spoke. 

"We even managed to beat Luz in a racing game." bragged Hunter.

"Yeah yeah yeah. I get Mr. 1st place." Luz uttered.

"I'm sorry. I couldn't hear you." Hunter wanted to rub it Luz's face since he never did at the arcade or on the way back.

Luz wasn't taking a liking to the joke. "I want a rematch next time we go to the arcade. Just you versus me." 

"Challenge accepted!" replied Hunter.

"So, no one is going to talk about how me and Gus beat you all in laser tag?" Blurted Vee.

"Yeah only because you tricked us Vee." mentioned Amity.

"You never said magic wasn't allowed and since it was just us playing, no one saw us." remarked Vee.

"I- you've got a point there." muttered Amity, admitting defeat.

Everyone laughed as they recounted the events of today. Camila enjoyed the sight of the teens having fun considering all that's happened. "How about after dinner we all watch a movie?" suggests Camila. 

"I get to choose this time!" blurted Willow.

"No way! You chose last time." answered Gus.

"I thought we agreed I choose after Hunter." everyone was then figuring out who get's to choose the movie. "How about we draw straws? Who ever gets the colored straw get's to choose."

Vee ended up getting the colored straw and suggested the movie Soul, seeing as how it looks interesting. Once the group had gotten ready for bed, so they could just go to sleep after the movie, they started to movie. After the movie, Camila went to her room, while everyone else practically passed out in the living room. With a fun and mostly peaceful day, Luz and Hunter were finally at ease. Hunter concluded that he had imagined Belos and sleep silently through the night.
