Lilith drops King to block Luz's spell with her staff
"I just wanna talk!"
"Talk to the glyph, witch!"
You jumped raising your fist, to which she dodged and you made a crater in the ground
"Please, stop !"
Shouted Lilith
"You fucking used me like a goddamn puppet, I ain't hearing shit from you!!"
Luz slams five plant glyphs to the ground at once, summoning several tendrils to trap Lilith. She breaks through them easily with a spin of her staff, but Luz uses the distraction to jump onto Lilith
"Ah, stop! What is wrong with you?"
You then tackled Lilith and you both fall through the still-open portal door
"Y/N !"
Luz followed running through
"Luz!"
King follows them through the door
You and Lilith fall off the porch of the house in the human realm. Luz and King follow through a second later. Luz is the first to recover, looking at the forest they landed in as the wind blows her cloak and hair.
"Damnit, where'd she go?"
Lilith stood behind You with her hands glowing blue
"Y/N, watch out!"
Luz and King are then pulled to the ground by vines, but Luz dove out of the way of Lilith's spell and pulls a fire glyph out
"Fire!"
the glyph disintegrates in her hands
"What?"
You grabbed the back of Lilith's dress and held her off her feet waiting for Luz to use the fire glyph, but Lilith dodges and tackles You
"Please, just listen to me!"
You then shoved Lilith off
"No way! You deserve to be petrified! Not Eda!"
"You're right."
She backs away from You
"I deserve to be in Edalyn's place."
You raised an eyebrow
"...Why did you do all this?"
Luz Asked
Lilith turned to You
"Please...just, at least hear me out."
".....Luz, hold your fire. I need to talk with my..."
You hesitated and then said
"My...former master."
"Okay. I'm coming clean. When Edalyn and I were younger, we were, the best of friends."
We then Cut to a flashback of a young Lilith and Eda, wearing Potions-track Hexside uniforms, running through the woods while laughing. Young Eda trips, then sits up to reveal her knee bleeding. She starts crying. Young Lilith turns around and kneels in front of her, cupping Eda's face to wipe her tears before putting their foreheads together
"With this spell declared, let the pain be shared."
Half of Eda's wound transfers to Lilith's knee. She winces, but both of them grin. Cut to a teenage Eda and Lilith practicing duels with a mop and a broom respectively
"Being in the Emperor's Coven was my dream. I wanted to work along side the most powerful witch on the Isles and make the world a better place."
Lilith went on
Eda spins the mop easily, while Lilith whacks herself in the head with her broom
"Eda wanted to be with me, but there was a problem."
We then Cut to the Hexside Grudgby pitch, where a field day is being held. Teen Eda and Lilith are standing in front of the Emperor's Coven stand
An Emperor's coven delegate then spoke
"One spot is available. You duel tomorrow. The winner will join our ranks."
"I knew Edalyn would beat me. She was younger, but worked twice as hard. She met me at my level."
Teen Lilith walks away from the stand while Eda reaches out to her. Cut to Teen Lilith wearing a cloak and walking through the Night Market
"Emperor Belos always said, "To be great, you have to make sacrifices." What would he do in my situation? I found a spell that would take away her powers."
Teen Lilith looks at a scroll with an owl seal on it. Her face goes from nervous to determined, and breaks the seal. A bright red light comes from the scroll. The door to Eda's room opened as she sleeps. An indistinct, shadowy figure becomes Lilith as she steps forward and pulls down the hood of her cloak. She approaches Eda's bed, holding out the cursed scroll. It glows red again, reflecting in Lilith's glasses ominously
"I though it would just be for a day."
Cut to the Hexside Grudgby pitch again. This time the stands are packed, and Teen Eda and Lilith stand opposite each other. They each raise an arm in a dueling pose, before Lilith runs forward with a yell, a blue flame appearing in her hand. Eda watches her approach
"No!"
Teen Lilith skids to a halt, the flame on her hand dying out. She looks surprised
"refuse to battle my sister."
walks up to a shell-shocked Lilith
"I've decided that covens aren't really my style. Hey, don't forget me when you're big shot, sis."
