Luz was running off.

At least, that's what Amity saw. She saw Luz, running off, tears in her eyes and streaming down her face.

She was confused, and she also felt more feelings rise in her.

Sadness. Pain. Sympathy.

She had a crush on the young human, though she'd NEVER admit it to anyone.

She grabbed her belongings, and began to follow Luz's trail. The tall shelves of the library seemed to close in on her as she walked further down the aisles.

She was so lost in her thoughts that she didn't even notice Willow and Gus until she bumped into them.

"Oh, hey guys... Sorry about that." Amity apologized, her constant face of neutrality wavering.

"I-It's ok, Amity... Do you know where Luz is? We saw her run away, and..." Willow's voice faded, and she stopped talking. Gus's expression said: Please help us...

"I, uh... Saw her go that way," Amity said as she pointed down the aisles of the library. "Mind if I... Join you?" She questioned with a slight blush.

Gus and Willow nodded eagerly at the offer. They needed as much help as they could get. Amity took the lead, as they continued down the shelved halls.

"So, w-why did Luz run off, anyway?" Amity asked, only partially hiding her blush.

"She, uh... Kinda got bullied maybe a little TOO hard by Boscha... It's not her fault, she was just protecting me!" Willow confessed.

Ugh, Boscha! I swear, I need to give that girl a talking to! If she ever hurts Luz again I'll-

"Uh, Amity? You ok?" Willow snapped Amity out of her thoughts. "Um, yeah! Just, want to find my way to Luz's heart, UH, I MEAN LUZ! We need to find out way to Luz!" Amity was not hiding her blush well at ALL.

Eventually, the trio came to a split path in the library. Amity was slightly relieved.

"Well, I guess we should split up," Gus suggested. "Everyone meet back here in an hour."

"Agreed." Willow saluted. Amity just nodded.

Amity stuffed her books in her bag, slung it over her arm, and continued down the path.

She was walking for a while, and she came across a darkened aisle. The light flickered once, then blacked out. Never liked the dark, Amity thought. She was about to turn back when she heard some quiet sobs.

Amity peeked around the corner, and her eyes widened as she witnessed Luz, and oh boy, Luz was a MESS. She was crying, tears running down her face, her hair was all ruffled. And her foot was bent awkwardly, as if she had sprained it.

"Luz? Are you ok?" Amity whispered softly.
Her face reddened a little, and she started to wipe away Luz's tears.

"I-It's... It's Boscha... I was protecting Willow, and she... She pushed me onto the ground, I told Willow to run, and she did... I was gonna go after her, but Boscha tripped me... I was barely able to run here!" Luz explained.

Amity sat there, wide-eyed, barely believing what Luz had said.

"Boscha... Did that to you?" Amity looked like she was about to cry herself. "I... Trusted her... I was her friend! And she just... Did that to you."

"Hey, it's ok! You didn't know! ...Hey, are you ok, Amity?" Luz had a small blush creeping across her face.

"WHAT?! AM I OK?? LUZ! Boscha teased you! She probably sprained your ankle! A-and your asking if I'M ok?!" Amity's eyes flared with multiple emotions: rage, love, concern... Her legs buckled underneath her, and she hugged Luz, with all her heart.

"Luz, are YOU ok?" Amity asked, concerned.

"Yeah... I am now." Luz smiled, still sniffling a bit.

"Hey, it's okay," Amity whispered. "I'm with you."
