Never Fight Alone (A OwlHouse Oneshot)

"Luz?" King asked again, but the human girl just kept crying, covering her face. He looked out the door, hoping to see Eda come along to end his uncertainty, but no one was outside. He then glanced at booty, before back down to Luz. "Luz, don't cry… I hate it when you cry…"

"S-she… I just- I was powerless… she wouldn't listen- Lilith…" her voice cracked, and her sobbing started again. But she managed to look up and sniffle, tears running down her face while her body shook with her emotion. "King Im so sorry- I really messed up this time… they got her. And the curse-" she choked up, moving her hands to desperately wipe away the tears. "I knew I shouldn't have gone on that field trip… I got her captured- she's stuck forever-"

The small demon barely processed the words, and glanced back to the table, the half ruined cake and the sewn cloak still sitting on it. Not half an hour ago Eda had been right there, stuffing him into the cake. He turned back. "Gone… no, Luz cmon…" he huffed a bit. "Y-you know Eda! She's always making a comeback!"

"No, King!" The girl shouted, looking at him with pain. She breathed out heavily then her lip trembled. "She turned. Her gem- it went dark…"

King was frozen, then turned away. "I-"

"It's all my fault…" Luz cried. "I tried to steal the stupid magic hat, I was just trying to help, but I never learn! I mess things up and other people end up fixing them! I haven't helped anybody…"

King scoffed. "That's nonsense! Luz you've helped so many people! Me and Eda…" he paused, putting her paws together. "...me and Eda didn't really have a purpose before you showed up. We were living, and we had fun and all, but it was just dirty, and rough, and with no real direction. Then you showed up, so insistent and optimistic and stubborn and, well, stupid. But you changed us. Things changed, and we really care about you, kid." He jumped to land on her head. "You make mistakes but you fix them. And yes, you've had help, and sometimes we need it. That doesn't make you bad."

"You've helped us, too."

Luz turned to see Willow and Gus standing at the door, smiling. Willow kneeled down to set a hand on her shoulder. "Luz you've helped me grow so much, with my confidence, and my magic. You are awesome."

"And although you get us into bind's, we're your friends." Gus added. "We are here to help each other."

"This is all well and good guys, but it doesn't change the fact that Eda is GONE." Luz sniffled, pushing Willows hand away lightly. "She pushed herself so hard to save me. She's always saving me and all I do is create problems."

She looked down, ashamed. Watching the still shadows of Willow and Gus, and even Booty, who had stayed surprisingly silent. When another shadow hobbled into the doorway, and she looked up to greet a smiling face.

"A-amity? What are you-"

"Willow called me. About what happened. Luz-" she struggled but kneeled down, pulling the human into a hug. "We are all here for you."

"I got you hurt… besides what are we supposed to do now? Even if Eda still had a chance, she's with the EMPEROR." Luz didn't fight the hug, melting into it in defeat. "It's hopeless."

Amity pulled back, holding Luz by the shoulders. "Now when has anything ever been hopeless for you?" She smiled. "In the face of the worst, you always come back fighting. That's what we love about you. What I love about you. You've never been a quitter. Why now?"

Luz breathed heavily, looking down. "Because Lilith is right. I don't belong here. I'm only here because I thought I could stay in my own little magical world. But I ignore the reality of things. My mom was right too."

"But Luz, you've made your own way here!" Willow interrupted. "You made a place of your own here, fighting the whole way. You've always had to fight." Willow smiled along with Amity. "But you never have to fight alone. Me and Gus are with you, 100%."

"And so am I." Amity added, narrowing her eyes into a serious expression. "There's a difference between order and manipulation. Lilith crossed that line."

"But… she's your mentor." Luz mentioned quietly, meeting the witches golden eyes. Amity squeezed the girl's shoulder and breathed out.

"She was. But If I'm honest, I love you alot more than I want to be in the Emperor's coven." Her voice wavered, but she pulled Luz back into a tight hug. "It's hard, but you're my family Luz. And Willow and King and Gus. And Eda. I'm not going to let them take that away."

Luz finally cracked a smile, tears still present, hugging her friend back and sniffling. "Thank you. All of you."

"Luz? I don't know what the plan is, but Eda wanted you to have this… and uh… well you might need it." King spoke up, walking over with something wrapped in a bow. Luz sniffled again and Amity pulled back to let her take it.

"A robe?" She asked quietly, looking up.

"It's from that weird magic string stuff from this morning. She made this one for you." He put his small paws together, while Luz carefully pulled the ribbon off and let it fall to the floor while she stood, Amity joining her.

The human's lip quivered a bit. "she actually made me one? I thought she was making one for her…"

"She was, I guess. But we wanted to surprise you. I made the cake myself!" He stood proud for a moment, before slouching again.

Luz had a moment of silence, before she furrowed her brows and flipped the cape over her shoulders, tying it into place and adjust slightly so it fell around her body, the hood down and properly positioned in the back. She spun a little, grabbing a small price of the fabric, and looking down. It was just a bit big, but that just meant it would stay with her when she grew. "It's… perfect…"

"So… what is the plan?" King asked, looking up. Luz met his eyes then turned to look at her friends, all determined and smiling with faith in her. She let herself stand a bit prouder, though not too much, and looked down with a frown.

"Not entirely sure yet, But…"

"...We will get Eda back."
