Right before Luz opened the portal door, a powerful wave of calamity energy disrupted it and resulted in her being transported to Amphibia instead, and vice-versa for Anne. How will they adapt to these worlds? Find out now.

Chapter Two - A Lying Witch and a Warden

Anne, in a strange tent, heard a female voice and flinched before approaching the source of it. "Hello?"

She peeked and saw an owl placing a bag on a table in front of an older woman. "Now let's see what we've got here..." She screwed the owl onto the staff, shocking Anne. The lady rummaged through the random junk Anne recognized as human stuff. She took out a phone and tossed it aside. "Garbage, garbage..." She also tossed aside a ring and golden chalice, which was pretty valuable, so Anne didn't know why this random woman would discard things like this.

The woman gasped, picking up a pair of silly glasses and putting them on. "Now this... This will make me rich. And this..." She then took out a book labeled, "The Good Witch Azura".

Looks like something Marcy would enjoy, Anne thought, as the woman raised the book up to a candle next to her. "Oh, this will make good kindling." The book caught on fire and Eda dropped it to the ground, letting it burn.

After seeing this person's weird display, Anne finally decided to say something. "Hey! What the heck?!" This surprised the woman. Anne leaned down and picked up the phone she tossed, which was cracked now. "This was a perfectly good phone!"

The older woman spoke. "And just who the heck are you, rummaging through my stuff?" She walked up to Anne threateningly, towering over her. Anne stepped back, prepared to fight if she had to. "Hey! I don't know where the heck I am, cause the last thing I remember is NOT being here." She then looked around and saw that this was definitely not Earth.

She took another step back from the woman. "Did I end up in H E double hockey sticks?!"

"You wish," the woman replied, as she twirled her finger, and Anne felt herself lunge forward on a stool right in front of the lady. Anne sweated nervously, freaking out about her magical powers. "Well, if I wasn't dead before, I sure am now. Eaten by a magic crazy old lady."

"Eat you? Why would I eat... a potential customer?" The lady said, her tone completely shifting.

Anne raised an eyebrow at this, as the lady picked up a green croc. "Can I offer you a human foot filled with holes?" She set it down and grabbed a stick of deodorant. "A bar of green human candy?" Anne watched her show these items, and despite the terrifying feeling she just had, she laughed.

"Oh, oh! How about this black shadow..." The older lady's smile faded. "Alright, what's so funny, kid?"

Anne got up, grabbing the Croc. "I think you need to be educated on what human stuff actually does. This is something you wear on your foot." She picked up the deodorant. "You apply this to your armpits, and this..."

She walked up to the Human Candy! (?), grabbed some batteries, and put them into the T.V., showing an old exercise video. "... is a television." People from the street noticed the video and walked up to see the TV.

"Huh?"

"What's that?"

"The sound... It's so alluring."

One of them held up some bills that look like money. "I'll pay forty snails for the screaming box!"

"I'll give you a hundred!"
