Luzan's Requiem

Chapter Four: Closer Than You Think

Batata, are you ready? Amity asked.

Um, I just need a minute to get my scar in check, Luz said.

Your scar?, Luz, your procrastinating, look I know you don't want to see them, trust me, I would blast them into next century if I could, but you know, showing our abilities would risk exposure to our world, Amity consoled.

No, it's just, I don't know, there was a reason why I moved here to the Isles full time now, and I only back there to visit Vee and Mama every now and again, and maybe do a supply run of Human Realm delicacies for you guys, but this would be the first visit since I moved here full time, Luz answered.

But what about when you got Vee, you know, the day "they" first arrived, Amity replied back.

Technically, Mama wasn't there when I went for Vee, she was at work at the time, and I'm pretty sure Vee was too busy to tell Mama about them, Luz replied.

Well, whatever works for you then, but I think we should get going, we can't keep them waiting any longer, Amity said.

Hold on, just need to get my hair right.......Luz replied.

You can do that on the way, c'mon now, Amity replied.

Amity patience ran out, she summoned some abomination goo and roped her girlfriend, she loves Luz and all with her heart, but sometimes Amity forgets certain trivial aspects of Luz that she can't really endure, case in point, Luz taking too long on readying herself was sometime Amity couldn't tolerate after long periods of time. No couple is ever perfect, no one is, that's what makes Humans and Witches what they are, their imperfections and uniqueness.

*Thank you for visiting The Boiling Isles, watch your step*

Will that always be said everytime someone leaves the Isles, Amity asked.

Uh, actually I forgot that The Collector added the option to disable the greetings for leaving and entering The Boiling Isles, just never knew how exactly, Luz replied.

That and the door, at least for humans, can only be opened by myself or Mami, you know, just in case another human accidently discover The Demon Realm, Luz said.

And what happens if another human opens it? Amity asked.

It would work like any door, they'd just be opening a normal door into the abandoned cabin, Luz said.

I've been meaning to ask, what do you and Camila use the Cabin for, you do own it, don't you? Amity asked.

Nothing really, the inside is as it was when our friends were stranded her for some time, I honestly haven't found a purpose for it, the outside is only done up to avoid suspicion from anyone else, Luz answered.

Ah right, thanks for that clarification, Amity replied.

So do we go ahead or do we wait for them to pop in, Amity asked.

Uh, I don't know, I texted them that we're here, its just for them to arrive, Luz replied.

Just then a portal appears in front of them, and out come Star and Marco, with Marco holding his iconic and famous Super Awesome Nachos (at least to Star it is)

Hey, sorry for the delay, we were just thinking of making a good first impression to your Mother, Marco explained.

Oh, no worries my first time meeting Luz's mother was under unexpected circumstances, but she quickly warmed up to me, so you shouldn't worry too much about her, Amity said.
