I don't own Disney's The Owl House. I do, however own the Main OC. Hope you all enjoy my story on this lovely show.
Chapter Thirty
It has been a few days since meeting three Coven Heads that were against Belos. It is nighttime as Hooty types a letter to Lilith. It detailed what happened the prior night with everyone.
"How we doin', Hoot House?" asked Hooty, seeing everyone in the living room near the couch.
"Can you keep it down?" asked King, as his voice kept cracking. "Down! Down! Why does this keep happening?"
"That won't be the only time your voice does that," said Collector, looking at King. "Until fully grown, your voice will keep cracking at different ages."
"Nooo!" shouted King, slumping onto his back.
"Hahaha!" said Hooty, looking at Eda. "Those teens, eh? Their moods change like the wind. Whoa!"
"I'm freaking out, Hooty. Belos is planning something big, and I'm weaker than a newborn witchling," said Eda, with clothespins holding her eyes open. "If I wanna protect you guys, I have to train as hard as I can to get strong! No rest!"
"But every time you overwork yourself, you turn into the Owl Beast!" said Hooty, stating a fact.
"I said no rest!" said Eda, blowing an air horn, irritating Danielle as she had moved małe echo terrarium downstairs for a bit, courtesy of a plant glyph.
"Oh, I hate those things," said Danielle, as Eda left the room before looking at małe echo. "Alright, any knowledge you want to share today? Please."
"It hasn't really given you anything since the first day," said Collector, looking at Danielle upside down.
"You smell that?" asked Danielle, leaving the room and smelling a plate of cookies in the hallway. "Cookies. I guess I'm a little peckish. Hey Eda."
"Me? Sleep? Ha! Not until I can call myself the most powerful witch on the Boiling Isles once again! Oh, hey Danielle," said Eda, before spotting the plate of cookies as well. "Hmm... "A reward for all your hard work! Love, Hooty"? Hmm. Not a bad idea. I could use the fuel."
"That's sweet of Hooty," said Danielle, eating a cookie alongside Eda.
"Hmm… wait, there's sleeping nettles in them," said Collector, getting a closer look at the cookies before hearing Danielle and Eda fall to the floor asleep. "Ugh, it's going to be hours before they wake up."
"Hey Collector," said Hooty, before seeing Danielle asleep alongside Eda. "Ah, only Eda was supposed to eat the cookies."
"Why would you make such cookies?" asked Collector, looking at Hooty. "Now their dreams will be heightened."
"Well…" said Hooty, looking at Collector. "I can help you get out of the tablet."
"Unless you can convince King to pull me out or acquire his blood, it won't happen," said Collector, looking at Hooty then Danielle. "At least… hey, where you going?"
As for Danielle, as she slept, appeared in some kind of a fog. Danny appeared before her but so did someone else. A man in his mid-forties appeared. Slick back dark brown hair and hazel-green eyes and light skin. Was wearing a buttoned up long-sleeved white shirt with the two top buttons unbuttoned, khaki pants and brown dress shoes.
"Uncle Kenneth… Uncle Kenneth," shouted Danielle, running over and hugging her uncle.
"Hey there Danny Girl," said Uncle Kenneth, hugging Danielle back. "How's it been?"
"It's been fine," said Danielle, crying into her uncle. "I am so so sorry. It's because of me that you're dead."
"Now don't say that," said Uncle Kenneth, lifting Danielle's chin up. "That happened because of my own actions. I took you out of your house cause I thought your dad wasn't taking care of you properly after your mom left. I let my anger get the better of me when your dad confronted me at the Cheesecake Atelier. I shouldn't have driven in such a state, and because of my anger blinding me I didn't see that trucker coming. I'm sorry for letting you feel this way all these years."
"Uncle Kenneth," said Danielle, looking at her uncle.
"Now what's with this Uncle Kenneth?" asked Uncle Kenneth, looking at Danielle. "You use to call me Uncle Ken, go back to saying that."
"But Grampa…" said Danielle, looking at her uncle.
"Forget what he says," said Uncle Kenneth, wiping a tear away on Danielle's face. "I prefer Uncle Ken better."
"Okay," said Danielle, before looking around. "Where are we?"
"Those cookies were laced with sleeping nettles," replied Danny, looking at Danielle. "They're suppose to heighten your dreams but it also made it possible for this to happen somehow."
"Who… you must be my prior life," said Danielle, looking at Danny. "You have a lot of explaining to do."
"I guess I do," said Danny, rubbing her arm nervously.
"I better get going," said Uncle Kenneth, looking at Danielle. "I was only given a specific time frame."
"What... no, please don't go," said Danielle, gripping her uncle's hand.
"I'm sorry but I have to," said Uncle Kenneth, pulling Danielle into a hug before disappearing. "I'm glad to have had you as my niece."
"Uncle Ken…" said Danielle, wiping her tears away before seeing the surroundings change. "What the…"
"Welcome to my domain within your being," said Danny, looking at Danielle.
"Alright, talk," said Danielle, glaring at Danny.
"I think the show would be better for this situation," said Danny, turning on the television, nervously.
"Really?" said Danielle, before sitting in the recliner. "Fine, just so I can understand what everyone else saw."
"I did not expect my next life to be like this," thought Danny, sighing as Danielle watched the show. "Nor this personality."
"… … … … …" said Danielle, as she watched every episode up to the current day. "So, Amity was supposed to be with Luz. Luz was supposed to be King's big sister and Eda's apprentice. I can't believe that one drawing style of mine is actually from another earth."
"Yeah," said Danny, sitting on the floor. "I stirred awake slightly at the beginning when you saw Owlbert. As time went on that day, I woke up more and played with the game console thinking that I was still alive and that the game was just a retelling of the show in game format but as an original character."
"That explains whenever you talked," said Danielle, leaning in the recliner. "You were just talking to the game like some players do."
"Yeah, as the days went on, I began to wonder why things were playing out differently then…" said Danny, shifting in place. "It shifted to reality and I got scared. I had truly died and realized that I reincarnated. What I was seeing was through your eyes and seeing the timeline being different, I was afraid of the butterfly effect."
"How did you die?" asked Danielle, looking at Danny.
"Of old age and a health problem," replied Danny, looking at the floor.
"Your fourteen," said Danielle, looking at Danny.
"I can control my age here," said Danny, looking at Danielle. "I thought a younger age would have been better as everyone else was younger."
"And this health problem?" asked Danielle, looking at Danny.
"A chronic cough I had since this age after having my tonsils removed," replied Danny, looking at Danielle. "Also, I was born with a rare form of Down Syndrome known as Mosaics. Pretty mild to be exact."
"Didn't think any of my past lives would have such a thing," said Danielle, leaning in the recliner. "I'm assuming this was your home while you were alive?"
"Yes," replied Danny, laying on her back. "I have complete control in this area so if I wanted too…"
"I've never seen a Golden Retriever so red before," said Danielle, seeing a Golden Retriever walk into the room.
"She's but just a memory," said Danny, as tears were forming in the corners of her eyes. "I thought when I passed, I would see my parents and relatives again, including my fursisters. But I didn't."
"Do you remember what happened?" asked Danielle, petting the memory of the Golden Retriever.
"It's somewhere in this domain but no," replied Danielle, looking at the ceiling. "I would have thought upon passing that I would fade away further in the subconscious or something like that so I never bothered my next life but apparently somethings about me went to you just not as bad I hope."
"Such as?" asked Danielle, looking at Danny.
"I had a terrible fear of heights alongside my twin sister," replied Danny, looking at the ceiling. "Snakes and spiders scared me too but not as bad as the heights."
"Looks like they transcended down to me," said Danielle, sliding off the recliner and onto the floor. "I had a hard time ascending Tokyo Tower and still have yet to hit the upper observatory deck. Not keen on spiders but snakes horrify me since a camping trip."
"Sorry," said Danny, looking at Danielle. "I didn't mean for those fears of mine to go to you."
"Well, it happened. Can't do anything about it now," said Danielle, looking at Danny.
"What's going to happen now?" asked Danny, looking at Danielle. "The draining spell. The Day of Unity… Belos or should I say Phi…"
"I don't know," said Danielle, laying down next to Danny and clasping her hand into Danny's hand. "But I can't let Caleb win but I'm not the one who should be here. It should be Luz. I don't know what she did to prevent herself from coming to the Boiling Isles but she's their light, not me. I'm just some lost light searching for her mom here in this realm."
"Danielle…" said Danny, before hugging Danielle.
"Thanks, but…" said Danielle, pushing Danny away. "I want to feel my mom's hug and my dad's as well."
"I'm sorry for thinking this was a game," said Danny, looking at Danielle.
"Well, at least you realized it faster than those three heroes in that anime I watch," said Danielle, looking at Danny.
"Three heroes…" said Danny, before gasping. "As in Rising of the Shield Hero!? I love that anime."
"Looks like there are some similarities between our worlds," said Danielle, staring at the ceiling.
"What about pokémon?" asked Danny, excited. "What's your favorite pokémon?"
"Not telling," replied Danielle, looking at Danny as she teasingly stuck her tongue out. "I might as well wake up."
"Already," said Danny, looking sad.
"Yeah, Hooty has an earful coming with those cookies he made," said Danielle, looking at Danny. "Wait a minute… Luz prevented herself from coming back to the isles."
"Uh oh," thought Danny, seeing Danielle think.
"Was time travel… the time pools in the book I read," said Danielle, realization dawning on her. "Luz time traveled… but why? And what for?"
"Wait, hold on," said Danny, looking at Danielle.
"I have to go. Później," said Danielle, disappearing back to the waking realm.
"What?" said Danny, not understanding the word.
"Okay, I'm awake… whoa!" said Danielle, standing up after waking and feeling the house shake. "The heck is going on?"
"Danielle! Danielle! Run!" shouted King, seeing Danielle leave the house before seeing a piece of the tower crumble and fall towards her. "No!"
"What the?" said Danielle, looking towards King and Eda. "King just…"
"Weh of Power."
"I am not calling it that," said Danielle, as she ran over to Eda, Collector and King. "You three, okay?"
"Yeah," replied Collector, looking at Danielle. "But Hooty is acting weird."
"I failed you all!" shouted Hooty, bawling his eyes out. "I failed you all!"
"Failed?" said Danielle, wondering what Hooty meant.
"No, no, no, Hooty. You actually weirdly helped me," said Eda, reassuring Hooty. "I'm like a harpy woman now."
"Actually, you look more like a tengu," said Danielle, looking at Eda's new form.
"And I can explode things with my voice powers!" said King, proudly.
"Which we'll think of a name for," said Danielle, looking at King. "I am not using what Danny just said."
"What was it?" asked King, wagging his tail.
"Weh of power," replied Danielle, looking at King.
"Heck no!" said King, as Collector laughed to the named attack.
"But I still failed Collector!" shouted Hooty, still crying.
"What?" said Collector, confused.
"Collector, what was Hooty trying to do?" asked Eda, looking at Collector.
"Quick! Pretend he helped you, before he destroys everything," said King, looking at Collector.
"Pretend he helped me? But I'd be lying," said Collector, looking at King. "I don't like lying."
"I understand what you're saying here but we need to calm down Hooty here," said Danielle, looking at Collector. "What was he trying to help you with?"
"Releasing me from the tablet," replied Collector, looking at Danielle.
"Okay, look if I release you from the tablet, do you promise not to go play happy and listen to us," said King, looking at Collector. "That means also any punishments…"
"Punishments!?" said Collector, backing away. "I don't want to go back in the tablet."
"Wouldn't even know how to do that," said King, looking at Collector.
"As in, actions have consequences," said Danielle, looking at Collector. "We won't duel out physical harm like Grampa did with his belt to me when I was young. Most in likely sitting in the corner for time out to reflect on your actions and losing some privileges like watching shows on my cell phone. Understand?"
"I guess… okay, I promise," said Collector, reassuring himself.
"Good," said King, looking at Collector. "Now how do I do this?"
"Just… follow my lead," said Collector, floating near the tablet and sticking out his pinky finger.
"Right, selling the deal with a pinky promise," said King, linking his pinky finger with Collector as he pulls out Collector's hand. "Whoa."
"Let's all do it," said Danielle, liking her pinky as well alongside Eda and pulling Collector completely out of the tablet.
"I'm free…" said Collector, seeing his actual hand and looking at the rest of his body before looking at everyone with a smile. "I'M FREE, I'M FREE! Oh, this is the good-est I've felt in forever and ever!"
"Here it comes," said Eda, seeing Danielle staring at Collector.
"What's coming?" asked Collector, smiling as he looks at Eda than Danielle. "Uh oh."
"Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!" squealed Danielle, pulling Collector into a cuddly hug.
"So loud," said King, covering his ears along with everyone else.
"Jesteś taki uroczy! Tak, jesteś, tak, jesteś!" squealed Danielle, cuddling Collector. "O mój Boże, ale masz piegi w kształcie gwiazdy. On ma piegi w kształcie gwiazdy!
"Dang, Hooty, you really are something," said Eda, as Hooty now cries tears of joys. "Alright, it's been a long night…"
"What…" said Collector, looking at Eda. "But I just got free."
"We can watch Bluey on my cellphone till you fall asleep," said Danielle, nuzzling against Collector's cheek.
"Okay," said Collector, nuzzling back with a smile and a giggle.

"This is awesome," said Collector, jumping into Danielle's bed and curling the comforter around himself. "So warm. So soft. Smells so nice."
"Well, I did recently clean my bedding," said Danielle, sitting on the floor as she took out her cellphone. "Want to pick up where we left off in the show?"
"Yes!" replied Collector, before sitting in Danielle's lap. "I think we were still in season one, oh episode fourteen "Takeaway" was next but the cellphone needed recharging."
"Hey, look what I found at the bottom of your bag," said King, holding up some nail polish.
"Huh, must have fallen in when I wasn't looking," said Danielle, as King gave her the nail polish. "I did promise, so you want your nails done Collector?"
"Tomorrow, I want to watch Bluey," replied Collector, looking at Danielle than the nail polish. "So sparkly."
"One of my favorites, actually got the whole collection" said Danielle, putting the nail polish to the side. "Alright, now on to Bluey."
