Chapter 33: Welcome to the Vortex Realm Amity

Amity just entered the portal to the vortex realm. She looked behind her and saw the group cheering for her. "Get Luz back here quick, safe and sound," said Eda. "I don't want to luz both of you. See what I did there?"

"Yes I did," answered Amity in a no duh way. "I'll find Luz and bring her home. I will also know when the portal closes or I hope I do. So I also hope we have enough time." Eda and the others waved goodbye in hopes that it was just for now as Amity walked out of their view. Amity didn't know how far to walk or which way to go because she never even heard of this realm before. She decided to walk straight for now hoping she might run into some help. She walked for a long time to where she came to a stop. The path in front of her was blocked.

"Who goes there," questioned the thing blocking Amity.

Amity answered back, "A witch from the Boiling Isles looking for someone that was thrown into this realm. Also what are you?"

"Ah, I see," answered the thing. "I am a broken piece of the timeline. I can tell you where to find this person you seek. Please describe them for me, so I can recite my memory?"

Amity decided to answer the broken timeline piece. She answered, "She has brown hair, a human, about the same height as me, clearly bi but we did have the talk."

"Yes," exclaimed the timeline piece. "I have seen who you seek. Just walk that way until you come upon a house or what it looks like to me. She should be in there."

"Thank you! shouted Amity. "I hope to see you again sometime." She walked in the direction the timeline piece told Amity.

"Bye," waved the timeline piece. "Such a nice girl. Maybe we were destined to meet just now." Amity continued to walk looking for something that looked like a house. As she walked, Father Time knew she was there.

"Please excuse me Luz," said Father Time. "I have to do something real quick. I'll be right back." Luz nodded in agreement and went back to doing what she in the middle of. Amity continued to walk but another thing stopped her. It was what appeared to be millions of screens showing people and living objects.

"What is all this," questioned Amity. Suddenly, she saw one with her father and siblings. She was now scared at what was going on. She started to back away slowly thinking something was coming to get her. She began to run in the other direction but turned around to see her father and siblings no longer visible. "What is going on," questioned a now scared Amity.

"Don't worry," answered Father Time. "You are in no danger Amity. Yes I know who you are. I'm Father Time and can see anything through time. What you just saw were visuals of the timeline for your father and siblings. I turned them off so you don't see something you shouldn't or try to change their future." Amity was still confused but at the same time calmed down knowing nothing was coming to attack her.

"Thank titan," Amity thought. She then realized that she thanked the thing that hurt Luz. She vowed to thank something else. "I've come to save Luz and bring her home," Amity also said. "Can you take me to her?" Father Time agreed and told Amity to follow him. Amity without hesitation followed him. They walked up to what looked like a house, the same one the broken timeline piece told Amity about. Amity was amazed. The broken timeline piece may be right she thought.

"Your girlfriend should be inside," said Father Time. But Amity wasn't listening. She was focused more on finding Luz and hoping she wasn't being tricked. She opened the door and ran inside. Luz wasn't in direct sight of her. Amity started to look around worried. Father Time just smiled because he knew this was going to happen but didn't say anything.

"Oh, your home," said Luz walking into the TV room. "That was very quick. Say can we..." She stopped when she saw Amity.

"Luz!" Amity exclaimed tearing up.

"Sweet potato," Luz exclaimed back. They ran up to each other creating a big hug. "What are you doing here?"

"I've come to rescue you," answered Amity. "Everyone can't wait to see you again. Even Belos for some reason."

"But this realm is so cool," Luz replied. "Say want to hear a story? Or in other words, the story of why I was the titan?" Amity couldn't resist. She knew she had to get Luz home but didn't want to upset Luz. She agreed to hear the story. Besides what could one story do? She had plenty of time still. Just then, the portal began to spark.

"Uh oh," said Eda. "I hope Boots found Luz by now and are on their way back."

Amity has found Luz. What will Luz's story say about the titan? Will they get out in time? Will Amity be able to convince Luz to return home? Find out in the next chapter.
