Chapter 05: The Slumber Party Plan

"It all started as an ordinary afternoon at the Owl House, Eda was playing a kind of card game called Hexes Hold'em."

-Like the original story, Eda was playing Hexes Hold'em with her palisman, while Luz watched with enthusiasm, King also watched and Ben was in another armchair reading Luz's book of " The Good Witch Azura" to entertain himself with something, since he had nothing to do-.

"In this image Ben would be in the other armchair in the living room reading Luz's book."

Eda: Watch closely, Luz.... and so do you Ben.

Ben: To what, Ah sorry *stop reading and pay attention to Eda.*

Eda: Listen both of you, "Hexes Hold'em" is the most tricky game on the Boiling Isles, any proper witch knows how to play.

Luz: Oh, boy. Cards. The paper rectangles that old people think are fun.

Ben: It looks like an ordinary card game, like we have on earth, or well, my Earth.

-When Eda places her 5th card on the table, the 10 cards on the table begin to release electricity, causing the cards to come to life and subsequently attack each other.

Ben: Wow, that's different

Eda: And that's not all, when it looks like the deck is stacked against you, that's when you break out the wild card. *draws a sixth card from his deck and places it on the table*

-As in the original story, Eda defeated his taliamigo with a light show and everything.

Eda: WHOO! I WIN *approaches her palisman* In your adorable owl face.

Ben: Wow, I didn't expect that *he is surprised and looks at Luz*.

Ben: Did you expect something like this?

-Luz shakes her head-

Eda: I love the feeling of victory. Its feels... fluffy?

Luz: Uhh.. Eda, It's happening again. *scared*

Ben: Oh man

Eda: What's happening again?

King: Your curse is returning 

-Eda, upon hearing King's words, realized that her arms were starting to sprout feathers, this last thing scared Eda.

-Eda runs immediately to her room; Luz, Ben and King followed her, when they arrived to Eda's room, she herself searched among her things for a box where her elixirs were, only to be surprised that she had no more elixir.

Eda: Oh, boy. This is terrible. I'm out of elixir

Luz: Uh, last time this happened you turned into this thing. *shows her a picture of Eda in her monstrous Owl form*.

Ben: It was also the time I met you and stopped you from wreaking havoc in the city with that monstrous shape.

Eda: I know I should be repulsed, but...... that look is fierce

Ben and Luz: ¡¡¡EDA!!!

Eda: You're right. You're right, We need to head to the market.

Luz: Market!!! *raises her arms with enthusiasm*

Ben: Well, what are we waiting for, let's go get that elixir at once *begins to walk*.

King: I'm gonna steal everything that's not nailed down.

Ben: That's not right King

Eda: Before we go would anyone like to play one more hand of Hexes Hold'em? *touches his pockets*.

Eda: Hey, where are my cards?

-Meanwhile with Luz, she gives the cards to Owlbert like in the Original story.

Luz: Take these and fly ahead. She'll have to follow us. *whispers*

Eda: Owl bird, you sore loser, GIVE ME BACK MY CARDS *pursues his Palisman*.

Ben: This day will be.... very long

-In the city, Eda was in front of a stall, Eda knocked on the door with the intention of being served.

Eda: HEY, OPEN UP, MORTON

Morton: Uh, just... Just a minute. 

-Meanwhile Luz and Ben were somewhere else, Luz was sitting on a bench and Ben was leaning on the wall near the bench with his arms in his white jacket he was wearing.

-At that moment King approaches the bench where Luz is sitting.

Luz: Is there anything better than people-watching in the Demon Realm?

Ben: I don't know, where I come from, seeing things like this is very common for me because it looks like a subway town in my hometown called Undertown

Luz: Really? You have to tell me about it.

Ben: Sure, I would be happy to, but it would be another time.

Luz: Sure, no problem

-Ben, Luz and King continue watching the citizens until they saw something particular that happens in the original story, an Egg bus and someone arriving late.

Luz: The curse of tiny legs

King: I know the pain

Ben: Yeah... me too

-Luz and King look at Ben with curiosity.

Ben: Is that I have aliens with short legs

Luz: Really? We need to see one NOW

Ben: Ok get ready to meet one of them *begins to activate the Omnitrix*.

-Ben was about to activate the Omnitrix until he was interrupted by a rumble happening right in front of them.

-The three of them see a group of men carrying a creature captive, it was tied up to prevent it from escaping.

Luz: Whoa! That is one ominous parade *points out what happened*.

Eda: That's no parade. Those are demon hunters, dangerous nomads who capture and sell the most powerful beast.

Ben: Is this normal here, I mean that creature seems to be suffering?

Eda: Don't worry, it's none of our business.

Ben: But.

Eda: It's NOT our business *she tells him angrily*.

Ben: Fine *disgusted and impotent*.

Luz: It's a horrible monster

Eda: Yes .... And a monster I will become if you don't open up soon Morton *knocks on the door of the store*.

-At that instant a thin guy with a funnel on his head appears, it was Morton, the owner of the store.

Morton: Sorry Eda, I was up all night poison tasting, and for some reason I don't feel grat

Eda: I'm all outta my juice, pal *gives him the bottle*.

Morton: Oh, gee *grabs the bottle* Let me see what I can do *searches through his stuff*

-While Morton was looking for the elixir, Luz and Ben saw Willow and Gus in the distance.

Luz: Willow and Gus

Ben: That's right, it's them

-Both of them go to where they are-

Luz: Heya friends *waves to both of them*.

Ben: What's up? *also greets them*

Luz: Wait, What's wrong?

Ben: Are you ok guys?

Luz: Who hurt my babies?

Willow: Them *points to Amity and her group of friends*

Ben: Is she, Amity?

Willow: Yes.... She's having a moonlight conjuring and invited everyone but me. *she gets sad*

Gus: And she keeps posting about it on her Penstagram account *he casts a spell showing some kind of cell phone screen displaying the post*.

Ben in his mind: Is it just me, or does this look like Instagram?

-Luz reaches over to read the description of the post.

Luz: *reading* "It's conjuring night. NO DORKS ALLOWED"?

Luz: What a jerk *gets angry*.

Ben: What's wrong with her? After that talk the 3 of us had at the convention, is he still behaving like that?

Luz: I think the same thing *crossed arms and angry* 

-Immediately Luz changes the subject

Luz: By the way, what's a moonlight conjuring?

Ben: I have the same question

Willow: You spend the night at someone's house, telling stories, playing games.

Luz: Like a slumber party? We have those

Willow: Then you bring something to life with moon magic *shows them the book where she gets the information*.

Ben: Wow, that really sets them apart

Luz: That's right, is like a weird slumber party

Willow: Gus and I have never been to one. You need at least three people and..

Luz: Me and Ben are more than 3 people, I mean, we're more than 3 people.

Ben: Exactly, we are 4 in total

Luz: And we're way better than them *points to Amity's group*.

-At that instant Amity's group passes next to our hero's group and a girl with 3 eyes starts to speak.

"Imagine Ben between Luz and Willow with his hands in his hood."

Boscha: Hahaha *looks at Wilow* Sorry you couldn't get an invite to the conjuring, Willow. Only real witches allowed

Amity: Ugh. Leave her alone, It's not her fault she was born without talent

-That last one caused Willow to get angry.

Ben: What's wrong with her?

-Suddenly some roots began to grow from Willow's anger.

Ben: Whoa!, Willow calm down

-Luz slaps one of the roots.

Luz: Don't waste your time getting thorny over them, Cause we are gonna have our own moonlight conjuring

-That statement made Willow and Gus amazed with happiness-

Gus: Are you serious? And this is one my bucket list. After owning a real huma bucket

-He pulls out a list and crosses off one of his fulfilled wishes.

Luz: That's a really weird thing to want but I appreciate your enthusiasm

Ben: Are you sure about doing this Luz? I mean, I don't know if Eda is going to go along with this *points at her*.

Luz: Don't worry Ben, I'll tell Eda *she goes running to Eda*.

-Meanwhile with Eda-

Morton: I've got bad news and good news, Bad news is, I'm all out till next week, Good news is, feathers are a good look for you

-one more feather comes out to Eda-.

Eda: MORTON!!!!

Morton: Well, gee, E. Why did you wait to rep-up till now?

Eda: I've been very busy

King: Yeah, busy playing Hexes Hold'em, She's obsessed with it

Eda: I am not obsessed

King: You're playing it right now.

-Eda is seen with her cards on Morton's counter.

Eda: Am I winning?

Morton: You know, I wouldn't suggest this to just anybody, but if you need your elixir, you could try your luck later this evening.

Eda: In the night market?

Morton:  There's a guy with a stand. Goes by Grimm Hammer, If anyone has what ya need, it's him.

-At that moment, Luz arrives to talk to Eda.

Luz: Eda; Gus, Willow, Ben and I are gonna do moonlight conjuring and stick it to Amity's. So, can we...

Eda: Not tonight, I'm going out *she cuts his words off*  I need you and Ben to watch the house, I have many precious objects in there.

King: Like me

Eda: *grabs King* You're coming with me, I need an extra pair of eyes looking out for pickpockets and an extra pair of hands in case I wanna pickpocket.

Eda y King: PICKPOCKET!!!!

Luz: Then maybe they can come to the house and...

Eda: No! Besides conjurings are dumb, Sitting in a circle holding hands? Pfft, It's like magic for babies.

Luz: But...

Willow: Luz, What did Eda say?

Luz: So, guys*nervous*

Gus: Oh, Look, *points to the sky* The moon is rising into place and the celestial powers only align once a year.

Ben: Whoa, in my world that's called a lunar eclipse.

Willow: Oh, I can't believe I finally have enough friends for a moonlight conjuring, Thank you, Luz, Did Eda say it was okay?

Luz: *nervous*  Ummm

-Ben raised an eyebrow and deduced that Luz didn't get permission because of her nervousness.

Luz: Yes. She said yes. We can do it at The Owl House, As long as we don't make a mess or touch anything and never bring up that we did it. hahahaha...*nervous*

Ben: *sigh*

Gus: Yeah *raises his arms*.

Willow: Oh you're the best *raises his arms*.

-At that instant Willow and Gus left repeating the words "We're gonna do a conjuring" over and over again.

-Later, Ben decided to say something to Luz waiting for the two of them to leave.

Ben: Luz *serious*

Luz: What's up Ben? *doubtful*

Ben: She didn't accept, did she? *serious*

Luz: *surprised* H-How do you know? *Surprised and nervous*

Ben: Your expression says it all

Luz: Ohhh, yes she didn't accept. *sad*

Ben: I thought so

-At that moment, Luz rushes to Ben to beg him for something.

Luz: Please Ben help me, they seemed anxious to do the conjuring and I wanted to help them to fulfill their dreams, will you help me to make this work without any mishap?

Ben: Calm down calm down, it's ok it's ok, I will see what I can do.

Luz: Really?! OH, THANK YOU *hugs him*

Ben: But I can't promise that it will be as effective.

Luz: Yes, yes, yes, yes, it's ok *still hugging him*

Will our protagonists be able to cast the conjuring correctly under the moon without Eda finding out?

Find out in the next chapter.
