Two days passed and Eda and King escorted Luz and Maxwell to Hexside. They had a big breakfast in the morning and made it to Hexside, this time, on foot, and they made it to Hexside within more or less than ten minutes before school would even start.
"Watch out for each other and in case something huge happens like what the Blight parents did repeats itself. Maxie, you telepathically inform me immediately. Understand?" Eda instructed.
"Yes ma'am. I will." Maxwell reassured.
"We got this, Eda. Nothing to worry about." reassured Luz.
They turned to see a tall and heavyset male bird like demon student walking by them and he stopped to catch his breath as he was leaning forwards. He appeared to be at least two years older than them.
"You alright?" asked Luz.
"I'm just a bit out of shape. Tried to jog for one mile in a total of jogging three laps. I'm working on being more physically active but I'm off to a rocky start." said the bird demon student beginning to catch his breath.
Maxwell lifted up his hands and whispered "Agua" and snapped his fingers as he formed water around his hands and it grew bigger and bigger till it was the size of basketball.
"Open up and I'll guide it in there." Maxwell instructed.
The bird male demon student obeyed and opened his large-lipped mouth and with Maxwell using his elemental magic. The water floated to his large mouth and he began to drink it down slowly as the water was floating directly into the large male student's mouth like water coming from a water hose at a steady paced flow.
The size of the body of water began to shrink within over a minute till it was gone and the large male student swallowed it all down as the taste of the water was freshly cold and refreshing to his mouth and body, completely rehydrating him. He let out a loud burp afterwards.
"Thanks a lot for the drink. I needed that." said the large male bird student.
"That should keep you hydrated for a while and when becoming more physically active. Don't overdo it if you're starting out. Start out small and work your way up." Maxwell advised.
"I'll keep that in mind." said the large male bird student as he walked off.
"Nothing to worry about Eda. In case anything comes up. I'll inform you and if I have to. I create some shadow copies to keep watch over us in case we need it or in case if anyone else is unable to keep us away from danger. Not one hand, finger or magic will touch Luz or me or anyone I care about. And if I end up being wrong or if I mess up. Then you have my permission take us both out of school if you think it's too dangerous for us here." reassured Maxwell.
"I'm not going to take you guys out of school because I know I can't keep you from your friends. That, and I'd only pull you out of school for a day or two in case there was some crazy maniac that tried to hurt you two. But I understand what you mean. Keep a look out for each other till then." Eda told while instructing them on something.
"Okay!" said the two kids in unison.
"No kissing the hot ladies, big boy." joked King while laughing.
"King, keep teasing him and you'll be cleaning the house from top to bottom." Eda kindly warned.
"I'm only joking but I'll behave now." said King showing restraint.
As Eda and King walked off to head back to the Owl House. Eda was hoping that everything will be alright for both Luz and Maxwell since the last couple of times have resulted in unexpected dangerous situations. Both Eda and King did show a worried expression on their faces.
"Maxie, I actually have an idea on what my stand will be for Club Fair Day at Hexside. Any ideas on what your club could be?" asked Luz.
"Don't take this the wrong way or anything Luz but I got no problem with them. It's just that my dad never let me join one much less start one. I know how to set up a stand but I never joined club much less start one. Daston always said it was a waste of time or people who truly have no future are involved with those." said Maxwell looking ashamed to admit with his cheeks turning red.
"Well, Daston isn't here to tell you what do anymore." said Luz with a sly grin.
"True." Maxwell acknowledged.
"Besides, you and Dell bonded so well that you two are actually seen as a better father and son than you were with Daston." Luz pointed out.
"Also true." said Maxwell with a grin.
"You can even join a club or start one that's more your thing." said Luz with a word of reassurance.
Maxwell turned to see Luz and he knew the grin on her face meant she was right but also tempting him to join a club or start one since Daston wasn't around to tell him not to.
"Mind if I join yours and see where it goes?" asked Maxwell hopefully.
"Sure. Also, in case things make you nervous. Try thinking of something that makes you fearless and confident." Luz advised.
Maxwell knew that Luz spoke the truth and knew that her advice is a good idea. He did have an idea in mind of what to think about that made him fearless and full of confidence. The day he fell in love with Eda, the day he received the blessing from her parents to one day marry Eda when he's of legal age and how Dell and him bonded so well that they're having a better father and son relationship than he did with his real father. His confidence was rising high.
"Let's take this day on." said Maxwell.
The two walked off and went down the courtyard and into the school building. Their classes were short for the day as the entire school was getting ready for Club Fair Day at the school. There was plenty of blue and red banners with "Club Fair Today" on them with gold lettering.
During the school day. Some of the female students flirtatiously greeted Maxwell in the hallways as some of them would utter "Hiya Maxwell" while Maxwell said with a nervous hiccup "Morning ladies" and he'd walk off with blushing cheeks.
Some of the clubs for Club Fair Day were ether ones they had for a long time at Hexside and new ones had to be approved by teachers. Luz tried to get her idea for a club to be approved which was a book club for The Good Witch Azura books and both Amity and Maxwell shown their support for the idea.
"Hmm. Well, we never had a book club in a while. The last one we had was seventeen years ago and we liked it but we had no idea why it didn't stick around. But a book club is something we haven't had in so long." said the Plant magic professor.
"I know the teachers have the final say on this but since you haven't had a book club in a while and if you enjoyed having one. You know that your job does have its stress factors but a book club where you can read a book you love and discuss it with those who have the same kind of love for it is a fun idea and it can help lower the stress in the body that comes from day-to-day life." said Maxwell explaining the benefits of having a book club added to the list.
The teachers looked over the written down list of clubs suggested and they knew some were approved while others did not. Maxwell telepathically told Luz and Amity "Have faith. They're loving the idea" and they teachers looked at one another as they muttered under their breath while smiles of excitement grew on their faces.
"What do you all think of the idea for a book club?" asked Principal Bump hopefully.
"We say yes!" the teachers said in overjoyed unison.
"Thank the lord." said Maxwell with a grin.
Their idea for a book club was approved and the three kids walked out of the room. Once outside the room. Luz and Amity hugged Maxwell and kissed him on his cheeks, making him blush.
"Can't believe we finally got the book club approved." said Luz.
"They didn't stand a chance with Maxwell in there." said Amity slightly bragging.
"Well it didn't hurt that you two gave them plenty of compelling reasons and good points on why we needed a book club." Maxwell said blushing. "That, and since it's the only book club idea suggested to them and they haven't had one in so long, they're becoming more open to new ideas."
"I see what you meant with having faith." said Luz.
"You read their minds and found out that way, didn't you?" Amity said with a chuckle.
"Their thoughts were louder than a sawmill's steam whistle at five in the morning." said Maxwell with a hiccup. "What's next for now?"
"Lunch, even today for the occasion of Club Fair Day. They're actually having something that's a treat to us all." Amity told.
"What's that?" asked Luz curiously.
"Dairy free strawberry pie." answered Amity.
They stopped once Maxwell stopped at the words that Amity just told them. Maxwell heard that right. Strawberry pie? They're actually treating the school to strawberry pie. And its dairy free brand so even Luz can dig into it. Maxwell's eyes and face lit up like a Christmas tree.
"You said strawberry pie, correct?" Maxwell asked.
"Yes, that's what I said. It's even dairy free so it won't aggravate Luz's lactose intolerance." Amity rephrased.
Maxwell heard Amity right and took off running towards the cafeteria as they heard him utter a loud and excited "Yehaw!" which Amity was looking confused for a moment while Luz smiled with a chuckle.
"What did I say?" asked a confused Amity.
"You said the magic word that lights up his face everytime. If it's pie, he's got a thing for pie, if it's a pie and he's given a pie or however many slices. He'll go crazy for it." said Luz chuckling.
They walked over to the cafeteria and all the children in school and the teachers as well were feasting on strawberry pie and even other flavors of pie as well. All the pie was dairy free so even Luz enjoyed a whole pie. Luz, Maxwell, Willow, Gus and Amity were eating pie while Maxwell already had his fill on two whole pies and a bottle of juice.
"I see Maxie has a liking for pie." said Gus giggling.
Maxwell let out a loud burp which he apologized for afterwards. He had a satisfied smile on his happy little face.
"If it's any flavor of pie that they're serving. Sweet mama I love it." said Maxwell with a slight laugh but snapped back to reality. "Is it bad that I'm crazy for pie? I usually don't lose control over myself like that."
"It's nothing to worry about, Maxie. Everyone has some sort of food that they love, even if it makes them light up like New York City. There are some foods that make me go nuts for them and I turned out alright. So there's nothing wrong with having a love for pie." reassured Luz. "I'm glad that Amity remembered about my lactose intolerance. You know me so well."
Luz and Amity hugged each other and blushed slightly. Maxwell felt better once Luz told him such comforting words. An hour later, they were getting ready for the Club Fair. Willow walked down one hallway and stopped, hearing what sounded like a crashing sound as if a glass window broke. She turned to her left and saw both Luz and Gus running from a locker that had animal like legs, one large yellow eye, and a large mouth with fangs, it was chasing them and roaring.
Luz kept telling it "Back!" as if to command it to stop and get away from them as she used ice glyphs to try and slow it down but it kept crashing through the ice. Maxwell was seen riding on the monster locker's head like a horse as he was using a strong rope to use like reins as the rope was in the rogue locker monster's mouth and Maxwell was trying to pull on them to make the locker monster stop chasing his friends and tame it or probably trying to stop it altogether.
"Whoa, boy, whoa!" Maxwell commanded. "Luz, Gus, get behind Willow you two! Willow, plant magic, now!"
Luz and Gus obeyed and got behind Willow who drew a green colored spell circle and vines sprouted out from the floor, wrapping themselves around the legs of the locker beast, the locker beast fell forwards and Maxwell let go of the rope and jumped off its head, doing a back flip and landing on his feet. The locker beast was restrained and not moving like it was knocked out. Maxwell came to their side.
"Thanks Willow." said Luz hugging her.
"And that's why we try not to keep our lunches in the lockers." said Gus taking a seat on the locker.
"It's just like the animals at a zoo. They always have signs that tell the visitors not to feed the animals as that's the zoo workers job and it's dangerous for the zoo visitors to do that. One man did that a while back at a zoo in Southern Carolina and he lost a finger to a mountain lion when he tried to feed him a bit of bacon snack." Maxwell told.
"Which finger was it?" asked Gus curiously.
"His middle finger." answered Maxwell.
"I see Maxie tried to stop the locker by riding it or by taming it?" said Willow noticing.
Maxwell blushed as he knew that riding the locker monster was an honest attempt to tame or stop the beast but he knew that they'd find it to be an odd method in stopping the rogue locker monster.
"I figured I could stop it or probably tame it or calm it down by using rope like reins to make it stop. It was like bull riding or horse riding. I'll admit. That's the country boy in me talking." said Maxwell looking embarrassed.
"It's nothing to worry about. You may be a southerner at heart and soul. But you're our southern boy." reassured Willow.
They heard the locker monster growling and was about to get up and attack but Maxwell quickly formed his left hand like a gun and a green light glowed on his index fingertip and once pushed his thumb down. He fired the green light at the beast on its side as he muttered "Spirit Tranquilizer Gun!" and the beast instantly went to sleep as the tranquilizer's effects worked instantly. Maxwell blown on his fingertip as if blowing smoke from the barrel of a gun.
"Tranquilized?" guessed Luz.
"Only for about an hour. Not to worry, it'll wake up back to normal and go back to where it escaped." reassured Maxwell.
They all looked at Willow who appeared to be looking like she got physically stronger and faster since the last time they saw her.
"Luz: So... ready for the club fair, Willow? Mayhaps you'll join me, Maxie and Amity in the... Azura book club." said Luz as she pulled out five books all at once like carrying five cards on her like a poker player.
But due to the weight of five books in one hand. She dropped them and yelped in pain from it but Maxwell snapped his fingers and levitated the five books in the air and snapped his fingers again which he summoned Luz's bag, the zipper pulled down on its own and the books floated inside her bag, pulling the zipper closed. Luz took her bag and placed her arms through the arm straps. Maxwell said something that sounded like "calmantes" which the pain in Luz's hands or anywhere in her body instantly faded away.
"You okay, Luz?" asked Willow.
"I'm okay. I think Maxie healed me." said Luz.
"And she's right." Maxwell informed.
"As for the offer of joining your book club. Thanks. But... don't take this the wrong way or anything but I'm interested in something with a little more... drama, flare, and face paint." said Willow showing hand gestures.
Luz looked on at Willow and she looked slightly serious but she was very intrigued. Maxwell was curious to what she had in mind as he didn't delve into Willow's mind out of respect for her privacy.
"I'm so excited to hear the next words out of your mouth." said Luz intrigued.
Willow pulled out her Penstagram scroll and shown them what looked like a video on the screen of two adults playing a sport that apparently had them riding on staffs, wearing sports uniforms and it looked like the sport was a magical way of playing capture the flag but had them capturing more than one flag.
"Fyler derby!" said Willow.
They looked at the video on her Penstagram account and both a slender yet athletic female witch and a larger, muscular male demon were flying around on their staffs, trying to catch the last flag on the back of the other's staff. They flew towards each other and the slender female dodged the larger male, snatching his last flag and flying towards her team's pole to place the last flag on one of the pole's branches. There was a commentator who narrated the event play by play and the slender female witch won. Willow put her Penstagram scroll away afterwards.
"Ever since our grudgby match, I've been playing it at home. Today..." Willow paused as she summoned her staff with green light and looked determined with confidence. "I'm starting Hexside's first Flyer Derby team!"
Luz and Gus cheered for her and thrown confetti into the air. Maxwell on the other hand looked confused.
"What's flyer derby?" asked Maxwell apparently not catching on.
"I take it you and Luz weren't informed about what the sport is?" said Willow blushing as she felt a bit bad that they didn't tell them about the sport.
"It kind of looks like capture the flag but with magic and they can fly." said Maxwell also blushing.
"What's capture the flag?" asked Gus looking confused.
"We got time for the Club Fair. How about we talk about it on the way." suggested Maxwell.
"Sounds cool to me." said Gus.
They headed outside the school to the courtyard and it looked like the teachers were still working on getting the stands up but had some difficulties that weren't too bad, even with magic being used to build or get the stands up. Maxwell had an idea to assist the teachers.
"It might take a while." said Willow.
"I'll provide some assistance for them. I'm feeling more confident as I've ever been since we finally met Eda's father and he's given me his blessing to marry Eda once I'm eighteen." Maxwell told them.
As Maxwell walked forwards. Willow, Gus and even Amity who was nearby heard Maxwell say it out loud. He's now gotten the blessing from Dell Clawthorne to marry Eda once he's of legal age. What they saw next was only described as Maxwell providing a miracle or a helping hand.
"Need assistance?" Maxwell asked the teachers.
"It might take us more of less than thirty minutes but we can handle it from here." said one of the teachers.
"I'll volunteer. You won't even need to lift a finger." reassured Maxwell.
As the teachers looked on in confusion and stopped. Maxwell muttered something under his breath that sounded like foreign words that came from a language no one spoke anymore. His hands began to do some sort of strange dance like motion and once he clapped his hands three times as his hands were now glowing a pure gold light and he began to move and gesture his hands and fingers to the spots where the stands were being set up in and with Maxwell's intervention. The teachers saw Maxwell getting the stands rapidly set up and build as if it were like he used his magic to build and set them up as if it were easy as playing with building blocks toys.
Each stand had their tables that served as what to place items on were set up, with a tablecloth over each one, the walls on the left and right sides of each stand got floated up as well as the roof for each one. They were seeing that hammers were pounding in nails into the walls and roofs of each stand on their own as they were floating around doing it on their own. The nails were hammered in the right places.
The signs and banners for each stand floated up to each one and had the banners ether on the front of the tables stands or the roof's front of the stands. Each banner and sign represented which stand had and which club each one was for. Maxwell did this while he had them all set up and built by the use of magic. It mainly took more or less than five minutes for Maxwell to have every stand set up and ready as his hands stopped glowing. There was multiple rows of stands in the courtyard now. All of them perfectly built, set up and ready for use.
The teachers and a majority of the students looked on in wide eyed shock as Maxwell walked up to the front of the school but made sure he was out of everyone's way.
"It's all set up!" Maxwell announced.
The kids that got the clubs started and approved by teachers all went to their stands while the rest of the students explored the stands to check out the activities they involve. What each stand featured was based on the school's clubs and the items that were also used as part of each one was all nicely set up and ready.
"Mr. Logan?" said Principal Bump looking on with widened eyes.
"I figured I could lend a helping hand." Maxwell informed.
Principal Bump and the teachers looked to see the stands, the students, and looked back at Maxwell as if they just witnessed a miracle in person.
"We're grateful." said Principal Bump and the teachers in unison.
"Nothing to worry about. I'm glad to help." Maxwell said.
"Makes me wonder if a human witch hybrid means they're literally a God." said the illusion teacher surprised.
"I'm not God nor am I one. The only God that exists is the one that's up high in the heavens." Maxwell said pointing up to the sky. "Also, in case something goes wrong. I set up an alarm to alert you all so that the issue can get resolved. Think of it like a police siren. It's just for a safety precaution."
"You pulled out all the stops, didn't you?" said the illusion teacher.
"All for the safety of the teachers and students." Maxwell answered as he walked down one of the rows of the clubs.
As Maxwell walked down one row to find the book club that Luz had started. The teachers and staff looked on at Maxwell as if they never met a kid like him. He helped save the school, the students and teachers from two dangerous beasts, both of whom he slain, defused a lot of situations, shown them mercy when they did something wrong or if they failed to do the right thing, he shown them mercy, repaired a lot of damages done to the school when they were unable to fix them without any funds, healed people who were hurt or in life threatening danger from a wound, he did give them a lecture on a few things when they did something wrong but shown them mercy. They never knew anyone like Maxwell.
"Didn't Mr. Logan start a club of his own?" asked Professor Hermonculus.
"He said he didn't have the desire to start one. He was going to see how Luz's book club would turn out in support for her. That's what he told me this morning." answered Principal Bump. "But I must admit. I've never met a kid like him."
Maxwell walked down one row towards Luz's stand and there were numerous stands at the Club Fair. There were clubs for swimming if anyone wanted to learn how to swim and be part of a swim team, an art club for those interesting in art, there was Luz's book club where the gold sign read "The Good Witch Azura" in black lettering. Other clubs for Hexes Hold'em card game, one that read "Arts + Witchcrafts" others like Screech and Debate, Willow's stand that was Flyer Derby, more of them read Skullpting, Scrying Committee, Casket Weaving, Inner Demons, Brews n' Stews, Psychics, Fear Book, Gardening and Drama and more.
Willow saw that her stand was decorated the way she envisioned it and added one more flag on there with the help of Clover, her palisman and used her magic to add various flowers around the sign. Her palisman flew to her shoulder and Willow gently scratched under her chin as her palisman uttered a happy chittering sound.
"Journey with us to a world of magic unlike any other! Well, uh, a bit like this world, except toned down for ages six to eleven." said Luz showing some confidence but her confidence was immediately slipping. "Why isn't anyone interested?"
"With every new club for a school. It's going to take longer than a day, more or less, for anyone to come flocking to a stand that's new. I do know Amity is interested since she loves the books too. Even I read the books and I'm interested in this." Maxwell said with a word of reassurance.
"The art doesn't do it any favors." came an insult.
They turned to see an unamused Boscha who picked up one of the books that was the second book to "The Good Witch Azura" it shown a picture of the titular character riding on a broomstick with a staff in her right hand and carrying what looked like a dog with her left arm. A rainbow-colored trail was following the path of the broomstick.
"Not judging a book by its cover is a baby rule even babies know." said Luz showing mild defiance against Boscha's words. "Plus, you don't read Azura for the art! There's so much magic in the words."
"Boscha, I'm warning you, be nice or leave if your just here to cause trouble." Maxwell kindly warned.
Boscha opened the book she had in her hands and flipped through some pages to read a passage from it out loud. As she did so, she was doing some mocking poses with her legs.
"Twice have I tarried at Tanabrack. Yet e'er have I kept my troth to thee, Azura." Boscha read out loud.
Luz took the book from Boscha who looked on and appeared unamused.
"Okay, the prose can be... ornate. But it- it's also the crackling emotions! The convoluted magic system! The smell of the pages!" said Luz as she flipped through some pages and buried her face in it to take a whiff of them.
Boscha stared at them judgingly till she looked at Maxwell.
"And I doubt farm boy here even knows how to read." mocked Boscha.
"At least I'm not benched from the entire season of Grudgby this year and being at risk of expulsion if one goes against being benched. Besides, I've read a lot more than you have. And for the record." said Maxwell with a comeback.
Maxwell pulled out a book that read "The Dead" and flipped through the pages. He had pulled out a book that he remembers talking to Luz and Eda about that was his favorite book. The picture on the cover was of a young male sheriff human in uniform who placed his left hand on his handgun's holster, appearing to be running from a group of zombies and he read a passage or page out loud.
"As Sheriff Duncan and the fellow survivors made it to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention building. They walked out from their cars as any of the adults had their weapons drawn in case they ran into walkers. Bodies of previously fallen police officers, military men and civilians were scattered among the ground and streets in various areas. Duncan's deputy, Wayne, silently advised them all to remain silent as a grave as they made it to the building. The bodies had a fowl odor while it left them to cover their mouths and noses to prevent them from smelling the deceased, it did very little help. But they made it to the front door of the building, the shutters were closed. They were being watched by someone inside the building from a security camera that was on them from the outside. They tried knocking on the shutters, no one answered as Wayne assumed no one was there. Duncan questioned why the shutters were down. But were interrupted when Derrick alerted them to some nearby walkers that were staggering their way. Derrick fired an arrow at one in the head with his crossbow gun. They had no idea what to do in their situation as it was getting dark. Sharon asked where they're going to go. Wayne declared the possibility of safety a dead end while Duncan's wife warned them about it not being safe in the city after dark. Wayne suggested Fort Benning being an option but Frizzle argued they had very little food and fuel and that the next possible safe zone was over one hundred miles from where they stood. Duncan attempted to reassure them by telling them "We'll think of something" while the others felt panic setting in. Duncan saw the security camera move around a bit and he alerted them that it moved. Kale denounced it as his imagination but then they saw the camera moving too. His deputy brushed it off as being an automated device that was powering done. He ignored him and was banging on the shutters as he declared that he knew whoever was inside could see and here them as he pleaded with them that they're desperate as they have women, children, and elderly, barely any food and gas left, having nowhere else to go. As they tried to get Duncan to leave with him, he repeatedly ignored them and talked to whomever was watching them through the camera as more walkers were staggering towards them, hearing the commotion Duncan was making. And as Duncan was on the verge of screaming as he told them "Keep your eyes open. If you don't let us in, you're killing us! Please!" and just as Deputy Wayne dragged Duncan off. He repeatedly shouted out "You're killing us!" but then they stopped once the shutters opened and a bright light shined on them. They heard a male's voice on the intercom telling them "Get inside! There's not much time!" wasting no time at all. The entire group of survivors ran inside. Not knowing what to expect next but anything was better than being outside in the dark where the walkers are more dangerous than they are during daylight." Maxwell read out loud before closing the book and putting it back in his bag.
Boscha looked on at Maxwell annoyed as Maxwell proven her wrong and that he can read as everyone knows he can read as his reading grade level was college level.
"This is your last warning, Boscha. Leave and go back to whichever is your stand from the club you've started and leave us alone. We're not in the mood for your antics." Maxwell reiterated his warning.
Boscha knew that Maxwell's face being stoic while Luz was showing how impressed that Maxwell was sticking up for not just himself but also for her. Boscha kept quiet by force and that's when Amity came over to them at a run as she called out Luz and Maxwell's names. She stopped by them to catch her breath.
"Amity, take a moment to catch your breath." Luz kindly advised.
Amity obeyed and took a moment to catch her breath before she spoke.
"You will not believe what I just heard." said Amity.
"Spill it, hermosa!" said Luz excitedly as she hopped over the table.
"Que esta pasando?!" asked Maxwell.
"The author of Azura is having a signing this afternoon at the Book Nook!" Amity explained further.
Luz and Maxwell were met with unexpected confusion. They didn't know if what Amity said was true or false but also were a bit confused as they remembered the author of the Azura books was human.
"Huh?" said Luz confused.
"What now and where?" Maxwell uttered in confusion.
"You two are much less excited than I imagined." Amity said with a raised eyebrow.
"Uh, excuse me, I'm still here." said Boscha rudely.
"Talk to the hand, Boscha. This is their conversation." Maxwell brushed off.
"I'm just confused. The author is human." said Luz taking a look at the picture of the author and then back at Amity.
"No, she's not. She's from the Demon Realm. How do you think I got my books?" said Amity grabbing one of the books from the stand.
"How do you think I got mine? Look!" said Luz.
Luz and Maxwell approached Amity as Luz accidentally bushed Boscha aside which annoyed Boscha. Luz shown a picture of the author to the Azura books to Amity which was on the back of the book while Luz was shown a picture of the author from the back of the Azura book that Amity owned. The one from Luz had round ears like a human while the one from Amity had pointed ears like a witch. The two girls looked at the pictures than at each other.
"Can the author of Azura..." Amity began.
"Travel between realms?!" said Luz wide eyed.
"Get off me!" said Boscha sharply as she was about to bush them aside.
Maxwell snapped his fingers and just when Boscha pushed the two aside. Her hands and arms suddenly got raised up and they stayed that way as two large feathers appeared in thin air and began to brush against her underarms briefly, making her laugh and squirm a bit.
"Whose doing thahahahahaaat!" Boscha laughed.
Suddenly, the feathers disappeared while her hands and arms were suddenly placed to her sides. She saw that it was Maxwell who did that to her.
"Boscha, you touch Luz and Amity, you're lucky that it was just tickling you. Technically, tickling doesn't harm anyone. But if you touch them like that again, I'm not going to responsible for what comes next." warned Maxwell. "Now beat it."
"Shall we find this author at the book nook?" said Luz excitedly.
"Estoy contigo." said Amity with a grin.
The two girls took each other by the hand and walked off excitedly after placing their books on the stand. Maxwell was in the process of going with them but was about to make a shadow copy of himself. Boscha was looking on at them with jealously and annoyance.
"You guys aren't cute! I still have more friends than you!" shouted Boscha.
"Bubblegum head whose words mean nothing say what." Maxwell said with a grin.
"What?" said Boscha. "No wait!"
"Last warning. Beat it." Maxwell warned. "Luz, Amity, Espera!"
"I'm so gonna get you back for this, you dumb country, woah!" Boscha was about to threaten.
Boscha was about to punch Maxwell but when she raised her fist up, she accidentally hit another student in the face and it was a male student with curly brown hair and a slender body who screamed in pain from the impact of Boscha's fist to his face which made him fall over and caused several other students to fall over after he did like knocking over a trail of dominos.
Boscha looked at what just happened and what sounded like a police siren had went off blaring loudly and a large red arrow popped up out of nowhere in a puff of red smoke and it was pointing down at Boscha as the arrow had two words glowing on there that read "Bully Alert!" in white lettering.
Principal Bump came over and saw what was going on and he did remember Maxwell setting up an alarm system in case of anything going wrong that needed a teacher's attention. He saw that several students were getting up while the male student with curly brown hair got up and was holding onto left cheek. The stunned look on Boscha's face and everything meant he knew who it had to be.
"Who?" said a stern Principal Bump.
The students that saw everything pointed at Boscha and revealed that she was the cause of the sudden riff raff. The principal sighed and approached Boscha with a disapproving face.
"Come with me, Boscha. We'll talk about this at the front entrance." Principal Bump instructed. "Everyone else, as you were, nothing else to see here. Fuller, you and the students see the nurse. She's on standby."
The students obeyed him and Maxwell had already made two shadow copies of himself. He instructed one of them to watch out for Luz's stand and instructed the second one to watch out for his friends by going over to Willow.
