Chapter Text
The Bad Girls Coven quickly settled in and after what was probably the first good meal in...in...well, it kinda didn't really matter how long they had a good meal as long as they had one, Camila washed the dishes...with a little help from Gus' levitation spells. Amity then handed her a cup of coffee, earning herself a hug from Camila.

In the bathroom, Luz placed some bandages on her wounds, then onto her fathers, who was sitting on the toilet and holding red flare close. "You okay?" she asked.

"Not really," he replied in that raspy voice. "You okay?"

"Not really."

At that moment, Hunter came in and whispered, "Hey, thanks for not telling them I'm...uh..."

"A grim walker?" Luz asked as she took out another bandage.

"Shh! Don't say it so loud! What about you? How have you been since..."

"Since the three of us were in Phil's mind," asked Oswald glumly.

"Since I helped him meet the Collector?" asked Luz, feeling more and more stressed. "My gosh, Hunter, they're all gonna hate me!"

"What? Of course they won't," Hunter insisted. "They won't hate you anymore than me when they find out I might be a clone of...someone...who was a witch hunter...with Belos..."

"Wow, you really know how to pep someone up, do you," snarked Oswald.

"Shut up."

"Oh, for crying out loud," muttered Oswald. "Just tell them! Rip the bandage off! Get it over with! They're going to find out eventually anyway. Just one slip of the tongue and..."

"I'm sorry, Oswald, but some bandages are just too painful to rip off."

"Well, I didn't tell anyone about the whole 'Belos tricked Luz' and 'Hunter being a clone of a dead witch hunter' things if that makes you two feel any better."

"Not really."

______________

The three of them looked out to see Amity, Willow, Gus and Vee talking with each other at the dinner table. "We'll tell them when we're ready," Luz said.

"I hope you're ready sooner rather than later," said Oswald. "The longer it takes for you to tell them, the more it will hurt when they find out." Luz and Hunter didn't know what to say to that.

"Okay, so," Camila recapped as everyone sat down at the table. "In the Demon Realm, you fought the evil Emperor Bellows who turned into a monster..."

"Well, he started out human," pointed out Gus.

"Right..." said Camila. "But he was defeated by a newer, smaller bad guy who threw away a mask, which is the only thing that can stop him?"

"Yeah, and he took my left eye!" Oswald pointed to himself angrily. "And just look at my dragon palismen! She's traumatized!"

"The Collector," clarified Willow to Camila. "We don't know who he is, though Oswald says he's a god. But we don't know how Belos found him."

"Who knows if we'll ever figure it out," Luz said, a little too loudly. "But they're creating a lot of chaos," she said in a normal tone.
