Dancing with Demons

Ch. 9: Rescue

A few days later, Luz was walking around the market.

"If Eda and King think I'm letting them use my body and powers, they have another thing coming."

What was she talking about? A simple bet Luz DENIED after suggesting Eda was too cautious about the cops. Why would she when Luz was around? Anyway, Luz left when they started talking about body swap spells, whatever they get into is their business. And all that was left to think about for her was what she would be doing by herself today. She thought about Boscha and her gang, getting an idea.

'Well, I think I know what I want to do.'

Luz pulled out her book and used a tracking spell to search for the Triclops so they could "hang out" for the day. There was nothing wrong with having a wider circle of friends... or as they would soon be known... disciples. Luz was a lot closer than she thought as he spell lead her to a cliff looking over the market bazaar, where Skara, Amelia, and a random boy in a skull cap were throwing water balloons into the market....that revealed to be portals or creation puddles that released giant tentacles on anyone and everyone.

'Okay, I found another cool thing!' Luz thought with a grin.

One of the balloons hit her and she looked up at the cliff with annoyance. Skara and Amelia went pale.

"Ha! Nice shot!" The random boy said, looking down as well.

The two girls said nothing as they pulled away and ran for their lives, leaving their friend confused.

'Where are they going?' He thought.

He suddenly felt a tap on his shoulder, causing him to turn around. He saw Luz, and was very confused as to how she got up the cliff so fast.

"Where did they go?" Luz demanded.

"Um....." He said, feeling scared and intimidated. "I don't know?"

Luz stared at him before shutting her eyes and smiling, grabbing his shoulder and slowly squeezing it.

"I'll ask again, so please try to answer as best as you can." Luz said as the boy began to groan.

"Y-You're hurting me." He said, trying to move but Luz's grip was too strong.

"I know, so just answer my question and I'll let you go." Luz said before frowning, revealing her glowing red eyes. "WHERE DID THEY GO?"

He gave a simple point, as he was so scared his vocal cords didn't work. Luz looked up and saw he was pointing to the poorly build shack nearby. Where not only Amelia and Skara were but most likely Boscha as well.

"Thank you." Luz said, smiling again as she let him go.

She walked to it. Inside, Amelia and Skara were panicking, while Boscha was trying to calm them.

"We're dead! We're so fucking dead!" Amelia shouted, nearly having a panic attack.

"I'm too young to die! I haven't even had my first kiss yet!" Skara shouted.

"Calm down, you two are not going to die." Boscha said, "Who did you hit with a balloon?"

"Luz!" They both shouted.

Boscha's eyes widened.

"... You're dead." Boscha said, "You two are so dead, and now I'm probably dead because you ran here!"

"This was your idea in the first place! You even made the Kraken Brew!" Amelia shouted at her.

"And you guys could've said "No!" You didn't have to follow my idea!" Boscha argued back.
