"You think we're gonna find Lorna Wu's daughter at the Westview mall?"

Teen asked, Agatha and Valentina having already clocked the woman, Agatha at Valentina's prompting, she could see the ghost of Lorna Wu following this woman so that had to be her.

"You think we'd be here if she wasn't, dumbass?"

Valentina asked the boy, using the name dumbass in an endearing way, just like she did with her ghost brother.

"I don't know. I just thought she'd be somewhere cooler, like Brooklyn or a yacht."

The boy said causing Valentina to chuckle slightly, both her's and her mother's eyes firmly fixed on the woman in the front of the store.

"Rumor has it Lorna Wu was lost to the Witches' Road."

Agatha told the boy, both Agatha and Valentina knew that was a lie, partly due to the fact that her ghost was attached to her daughter, not somewhere else. But it did peak the boy's interest, so there was that,

"What?"

The boy asked trying a pair of sunglasses on, Valentina immediately shaking her head, they did not suit the boy, so he put them back.

"I know. Ironic."

Agatha said, just before teen and Nicholas went to speak at the same time.

"More like iconic."

"I would say it's more iconic. If it actually were the case."

They said at the same time, causing Valentina to snort, her brother and this boy were kind of alike.

"What?"

The boy asked, he wanted to know why she'd just made that noise.

"It's nothing."

Valentina shrugged the boy off who went back to looking at the accessories that were on display.

"I know I have an aesthetic, and so does Valentina, but what are we doing here?"

Teen went on to ask Agatha, Valentina shaking her head at the boy's mention of her name, but he wasn't wrong though.

"Run."

Agatha told the boy as she slipped something into his pocket, Valentina rolling her eyes at her mother, she was going to get the poor boy in trouble.

"Run?"

The boy questioned, he was confused but he didn't get a clarifying answer out of Agatha she only repeated herself, so the boy ran. Before he could step foot through the door scanners he got tripped by the woman they were watching, putting teen's hands behind his back, alarms beeping as she did this.

"Alice Wu Gulliver? I'm Agatha Harkness and that's my daughter Valentina. This is our familiar, Toto. We need a protection witch to join us on the Witches' Road. What do you say?"

Agatha told the woman, pointing at Valentina as she introduced her, Valentina giving a little wave.

"What?"

The woman asked confused, Valentina going to explain the sound of a guard's voice interrupted her.

"Gulliver!"

The voice yelled, it seemed like he was the woman's boss maybe, Agatha using that opportunity to say something.

"Sir, this woman just assaulted my nephew!"

Agatha yelled at the man, Nicholas looking at his mother weirdly.

"Was she always this weird, and just didn't notice because we were kids?"
