'This time... this time, for sure!!'

A determined thought went through the mind of a hair dyed, older, and stricter Clawthorne sibling as she hid behind a few bushes. Near her was a small platoon of guards with their faces hidden in beak like masks, ready to attack as well.

Neo(thinking): 3 2 1...

The warlock thought from his position in the Owl House as he waited for his favorite show to start.

"DING DONG DING, HOOT HOOT!!!!"

CRUNCH~!!!!!

Hooty Vs. The Emperor's Coven.

Neo: Let the fun begin.

He said with a smile as he sipped some of his pipping hot tea.

Eda: Hey handsome, I miss the show?

She asked as she strolled over to watch alongside him at her house guardian take down her sister and her stooges.

Neo: No my owlet, just in time.

He said, looping an arm around her to pull the woman closer, Eda giggling at the contact.

Eda: Perfect~!

She said with a smile as she watched her owl move around and easily dispatch all of them, regardless of their magic.

Merlin: I had believed these guards were of the best spell users, were they not?

Neo: No one is ready for Hooty.

He said while taking a sip.

SLAM!!!

FWOOM~!!!

"HOOT HOOT~!!!!"

Eda: That is a fact.

She said with a chuckle before looking behind them.

Eda: Yo kitten, come on and enjoy the show with us!!

Luz: Mew...

The cat girl mewing in annoyance from her sleeping spot.

Luz: I'm tired...

Merlin: How are you tired? Did you not sleep last night?

King: Nah, she was busy texting her girlfriend.

He said from his position on Yami's back, Luz sitting up straighter.

Luz: KING!!!

Neo: Teenagers.

The man said with an eye roll as Eda chuckled.

Eda: You willing to bet it's rich girl being the one to keep her up?

She asked as Luz staggered over, glaring at the king of demons, who hid behind his flame spitting friend.

Neo: Hey as long as her mom stays far far away from me, I don't care.

He said firmly while drinking more of his tea.

Eda: So true.

Frost: I still can't believe she did that too!! On your leg!!

Luz: FROST!!!

Frost: What? It's what we were all thinking.

She said in her defense as the rest shivered.

Merlin: If by think you mean repress, then yes.

He said as the warlock stared off to watch the show.

Neo(thinking): Oh Hooty, you are something.

He thought with a smile as he watched more.

Hooty: More tea LuLu?

He asked as he held up a tray of tea before Lilith, who was restricted by his form.

Lilith: I-I do not want your tea, release me!!!

She ordered loudly as Eda laughed joyously from her position.

Neo: Seeing her suffer brings me some much joy.

Eda: You and me both.

Luz: That's kinda dark, don't you think?

She asked as they turned to her.

Eda: Kid, she's my sister, but she's apart of a corrupted, restricted system and has been trying to arrest me for decades. I don't have many positives.

She said as Merlin and Neo shared a small glance.

Neo: What's a little psychological scarring?

He asked as Eda nodded, Luz's ears drooping down.

Luz: I don't know...

Eda: Relax, besides, don't you have school today?

She asked as Luz perked up and nodded.

Luz: O-oh yeah, a field trip actually!

Neo: Where you going?

He asked, all of them noticing her suddenly become nervous.

Luz: Ummmm....

Yami: What's wrong?

Luz: It's the... Emperor's Castle...

She suddenly revealed, looking away while rubbing throbs kissing of her head.

Neo: Luz.

He said, making her flinch and look up at him.

Luz: Y-yeah?

She asked, now nervous and scared for what he was going to say.

Neo: Be careful.

He added with a gentle tone and holding her shoulder, making her raise her head and nod.

Luz: I'll be extra careful.

She said as Eda and the rest smiled at her.
