The Owl and the Frog

Chapter 50: Turning Point!

Okay, so some big news I wanted to share with you all! I am now the official Beta Reader for "Calamitous Intervention." I talked about that fic in the notes for Chapter 45, and me and the author Spiritgamer got to talking, and he eventually asked me if I would beta-read his fic, and I agreed. I should say I thought his fic was already good even without my input, but I'm honored to be brought on board in an official capacity and hope to help him write the best fic he can.

And that's not all. Spiritgamer has also agreed to beta-read my fic. So now I have someone helping me bring out the best in my fic. I'm glad to have him on board, and I appreciate his help in making my fic even better! He helped beta read this chapter for me and gave me some good suggestions. Between the two of us, you'll have two amazing stories to look forward to in the Amphibia x Owl House section!

If you haven't checked out "Calamitous Intervention" yet, you really should, especially now that you know I am attached to it, even if it's in a small way. It is available on fanfiction.net. He also has a version on Ao3 that includes illustrated scenes from it. Something else to read while you wait for my next chapter.

With that out of the way, let's continue on!

Several Months Ago

Grime, Sasha, and Lilly charged at Andrias, trying their best to keep him from getting to their friends. Despite their efforts, he managed to knock all three of them away. Sasha crashed into a pillar, while Lilly was flung out the doors of the throne room. Grime quickly came up to Sasha to help her. Sasha turned to see what was happening and saw Marcy get stabbed by Andrias!

"Marcy!" screamed Sasha as she reached out her hand, unable to believe what had just happened.

A second later, Marcy's lifeless body hit the floor, and the portal to Earth closed, letting out a bright flash as it did.

"No! She managed to open the portal," said Andrias. "Well, no matter." He snapped his fingers and summoned two frobots, who came up to Marcy.

"I still have the box," he said as he picked it up. "So, what about you two?" He turned to Olivia and Yunan, who were both trying to sneak out of the throne room and asked, "Are you with me?"

"We're with you," said Lady Olivia, giving the king the biggest smile she could.

"Definitely with you!" said Yunan, also flashing a large smile and saluting.

"Good, get her to a rejuvenation tank and make it snappy!" he commanded. "She's fading fast."

Sasha had overheard him say that and felt a small sense of relief that this rejuvenation tank could help her. She hoped it would save Marcy's life.

"There's nothing we can do for her," said Grime to Sasha. "Now let's move before..."

He was cut off as a group of frobots surrounded them, preventing their escape and pointing their lasers at them.

Sasha raised her hands and whispered to Grime, "So what's the plan, captain?"

"I'm gonna have to toss you out the window," Grime whispered back to Sasha.

"The window?" said Sasha, not sure she understood him correctly. In the next instant, as Grime wrapped his tongue around her and threw her out the nearby window, she realized exactly what he meant. Sasha let out a scream as she fell out of the castle. Grime joined her a few seconds later.

"Haha! A flawless escape!" exclaimed Grime in triumph.

"And did you have a plan for after you threw us out the window?!" asked Sasha in frustration.
