Chapter Two - An Unexpected Reunion

After his battle against Black Adam, Billy Batson makes his way to the strange house he saw. Once he arrived at the house, Billy knocks on the door.

Billy: Hello? Is anybody home? I'm lost and I could use some....

Suddenly, an owl with an uncanny human face pops out of the door.

???: Hooty hoot hoot!

This scares Billy as he screams and falls on his back. As the owl face zooms in on Billy, the door opens up. Inside the house was an middle aged woman, a young girl and a strange little demon.

Demon: Who dares step into my domain?!

Woman: Easy there, King.

Billy: Holy moly....

As Billy gets up, he catches a glimpse of the young girl. Both Billy and the girl seemed to recognize one another.

Billy: Holy moly! Luz?! Is that you?!

Luz: Billy?! Billy Batson!

Without warning, Luz tackles Billy in a tight hug. Billy was in total shock at seeing Luz again. Eda and King were confused.

Eda: Alright, kid. You got some explaining to do.

Luz: This is Billy Batson! One of my oldest and bestest friends!

King: Another Human? Ha! My army of loyal followers grow!

Billy: Um...hi?

Luz: Billy, this is Eda the Owl Lady and this cute widdle guy is King.

King: I'm not cute! I'm deadly!

Luz: How did you get into the Boiling Isles?

As Luz asked that question, Billy found himself in a tricky situation. While he wanted to tell Luz about all that's happened to him, Billy had to maintain his secret identity. Luckily for Billy, he had a way around Luz's question. 

Billy: How did you end up here? 

Luz: It's....it's a long story....

???: OWL LADY! OWL LADY! COME ON OUT! WE KNOW YOU'RE IN THERE!

Billy: What was that?

Eda: Trouble. 

Luz: Stay inside, Billy. We got this covered. 

Billy found it ironic that Luz was telling him to stay put considering that he was a Superhero. For now, he stayed behind as Eda and Luz confronted a group of Coven Guards. 

Eda: What do you bozos want?

Coven Guard Captain: Emperor Belos has sent us to investigate a surge of strange magic. 

Eda: Good for you. Now beat it before things get ugly. 

Eda then assumes her Harpy Form while Luz prepares some Glyphs. 

Coven Captain: Your form doesn't frighten me, Owl Lady! And besides, I brought a couple of friends.

As the Coven Captain said this, a large squadron of Abomaton soldiers were deployed around the Owl House. As the Abomotons surrounded the Owl House, the Coven Guard stepped forward.

Coven Captain: We can do this the easy way or the hard way.

Eda: Guess this is where the fun begins. 

With that, an intense battle broke out outside the Owl House. Eda and Luz along with King and Hooty stood their ground. Hooty began attacking the Abomatons, taking out a few of them.

Eda: Gonna make you wish you called out of work today!

Coven Captain: Stand your ground, Abomotons! They are no match for you!

As the Abomotons advanced on the Owl House, Eda took the fight straight to the Abomotons with Hooty providing cover. During the fighting, King rushes in and hits the Abomoton with the plastic sword he found in a trash heap earlier. The attacks do nothing to the Abomoton.

King: Fall beneath my mighty blade!

As King says this, he gains the attention of the Abomoton he was attacking. Without hesitation, the Abomoton backhands King away several feet. As the Abomoton walks towards King, the Abomoton stomps on the toy sword, breaking it.

King: My sword!

Before King could react, the Abomoton grabs King by the throat and begins to strangle him. Eda soon jumps in and promptly takes down the Abomoton. Luz then throws several fire Glyphs at the Abomoton.

Eda: Oh no you don't!

As Eda takes down the Abomoton, another Abomoton jumps Eda and puts her in a bearhug. As Eda struggles to free herself, King crawls up the Abomoton and scratches at the abomination goo. This allows Eda to break free and take down the Abomoton. As the battle dragged on, the Abomotons began to gain the upper hand. Even Hooty was beginning to get overwhelmed.

Eda: Not good....

Coven Captain: Finish them! 

In that moment, Billy Batson decided that he couldn't stand by and watch Luz and her friends get hurt. He exits the Owl House and calls out the Coven Guards. 

Billy: Hey! Why don't you pick on someone your own size?!

As Billy calls out the Coven Guards, the Coven Captain walks up to Billy with a smirk on his face while the Abomotons surround Billy. 

Luz: Billy! What are you doing?!

Eda: Great. Just like you, Luz.

Coven Captain: Another Human? You think a small little Human like you scare me?! 

Billy: Shazam!

As Billy says the word, a lightning bolt cracks the sky and strikes Billy Batson. When the smoke clears, Billy had transformed into Shazam. Luz and the others were un complete shock. 

Luz: Santo molibdeno.....

Eda: That's new....

Coven Guard: A...attack!

As Abomotons attack, Shazam cracks his knuckles as he lands a single punch on the Coven Captain, knocking him back several feet. Shazam then proceeds to take down the Abomotons. As the Abomotons were dispatched, the Coven Captain got up and promptly ran away. As the battle ended, Shazam glanced over to Luz and the others with a nervous smirk on his face. 

Shazam: Guess I got some explaining to do, huh?

With that, Luz and her friends now knew that Billy Batson was in fact Shazam. But as Shazam found new friends, a familiar foe would soon resurface.
