Luz was nervous. One part about getting a Coven means getting a track at school. Luz hasn't been to school since she was bitten over a month ago. She stood in front of the bathroom mirror giving herself a pep talk.

"You can do this. You are the Vampire Queen. You are a Clawthorne. You are capable of doing anything." Luz looked into the mirror and let out a sigh, "Maybe I should've done this in front of mom instead of my non-existent reflection."

Luz walked out of the bathroom and saw Eda leaning against the wall.

"Hey kiddo. You ready for school?"

"Mom? H-how much of that did you hear?" Luz asked.

"The whole thing. Why did you think giving yourself a pep talk in the mirror? You don't have a reflection." Eda asked.

"I'm just scared. This is the first time I've been back since I was turned."

"I know kiddo, but think about it this way, you can't be bullied for being human." Eda said, it didn't help, "Listen kid, I know this is hard for you. Everything that's happened lately is still fresh in your mind and it's hard to deal with this new leadership you found yourself in, but I know that you can do it. You're a smart, brave, incredible young lady. You can do whatever you put your mind to. Now where is that ball of sunshine that came through the portal at the start of the summer?"

Luz tried to keep a straight face while Eda lightly poked her.

"Come on, show me that smile. Where is she? Where is she?" Luz finally broke and started laughing, "There she is! Now come on. You need to drink before you leave."

After wiping blood from her lip, Luz grabbed her cloak and got on Eda's staff. She landed in front of the school.

"Okay kid, this is it. Have a good day and all that." Eda said, "And don't forget, King and I need to go get new spell materials so you'll be spending the night with Aunt Lilith."

"Okay, see you tomorrow, mom!" Luz said as Eda flew away, "Okay, time to see Principal Bump."

She jumped between shadows until she made it to the Principals office. She knocked on the door to let him know she was there.

"Come in."

She entered the office, slightly nervous. She noticed two other witches in the office.

"Ah, Miss Noceda! Boscha, Skara, and myself have been waiting for you." Bump said.

"Actually, it's Clawthorne now." Luz said.

"Well, let's hope you take after Lilith more than Edalyn." Bump said, "Anyway, I've been told by the Emperor's Coven that there is going to be a new Coven, which means a new Track to study."

He made a spell circle and the Vampire's uniforms changed. Luz's rainbow, Boscha's yellow, and Skara's red track color changed to pure black.

"Well girls, welcome to the Shadow Track."
