Gareth Margrave's Boiling Isles Chronicles

Lost in Language

Inside the the loud house, Luz was reading her Azura book.

Luz: "Azura" Hecate began. "Our path have crossed only in battle. But today I stand before you seeking an ally."

Y/n: Wow, so her worst enemy now became her ally.

Luz: Yep, she was able to befriend her worst enemy.

King: Oh yeah, Luz, you're getting all swoon y again.

Luz: I can't belly it. Azura is able to befriend everyone. Even her biggest rival. I wish I had the kind of power.

Y/n: Luz, sometimes rivals aren't not to be befriended.

King: Yeah, they're meant to be annihilated, not befriended. Now keep reading. I've been sucked into your awful fandom.

Y/n: Yeah, Luz, keep reading to the baby.

King: I am not a baby!

Y/n: Then stop acting like one.

Luz: Knock it off, you two. Alright. Suddenly the door swung open.

Hooty then swing a the door open.

Hooty: Ding-dong . Ding. Hoot! Hoot!

King: The book has come to life. Burn it!

Chot-San then came back to the kitchen with what appears to be a gift basket.

Vilador: Eda, it appears a package has come to you. What could it be?

Eda: Probably an offering. Being the most powerful witch on the boiling isles has its perks.

What appears to be inside the basket was a snoring baby bat.

King: Mm. Fresh meat.

Luz: No, not eating that.

Y/n: Aww, it kinda looks cute.

Vilador; It appears that there is a note for it. Take care of my baby till morning. You will be handsomely rewarded. By the Bat queen.

Eda: Bat queen?

King pulls out a few snails out of the basket.

Eda: Reward?

Luz: Who's the bat queen?

Eda: She's the wealthiest witch on the boiling isles. Get with her and you're set for life. So we keep this thing alive for a few hours. And we get paid. Pfft. Easy.

Y/n: Okay, that sound like an awesome job. Babysitting. Not so hard.

Luz: Our greatest adventure yet! Learning about love and life through a child's eyes.

Eda: Not you two. You two have to return the books that I checked out from the library.

Eda summons books that landed in Luz's and Y/n's hand.

Eda: (to Vilador and King)I don't want them getting any cut of the loot.

King: Good thinking.

Vilador: Now taking care of this little darling won't be a problem.

They took off the blanket and then the baby bat started screeching.

King: Oh boy.

Eda: On second thought, we could use both your help!

Y/n and Luz were both halfway through the door.

Luz: Well, we better get to the library! Got to go! Bye!

She closed the door behind them.

Eda: We got, right?

Vilador: Yeah.
