Summary
Luz Noceda stumbles into the demon realm at seven, and the world of canon changes in one significant way. The Golden Guard Hunter gains a younger sister, and the human Luz Noceda-Clawthorne gets an older brother. They are real siblings, though they'd never admit it, so when Luz discovers Hunter is covered in scars, she (naturally) blames herself and hatches a plan to show him how his life should be.In a nutshell, hunting palismen happens six years early. Hunter gets a heroic, insane, cheerful little sister he'd follow just about anywhere (if only because he's worried she might get hurt,) and Luz has a nerdy, level-headed, grumpy brother she loves him all the more for those things. He pretends he doesn't care (but she knows he does,) and when she figures out someone hurt him, she decides kidnapping him is his best shot at happiness.(This takes place at canon time. She just has frequented the boiling isles longer.)
Note
First and foremost, trigger warning? I don’t know if this is one but mention of scaring and mention of abuse as a behavior a character finds normal.I would also like to say many of the negative tags are sort of watered down in this fic (as i haven’t gone through any of these things i cannot write them correctly) i will try to make a couple moments darker (several nightmares and such) and i think it will go well but i don’t know what standards readers would judge this on.Secondly before you start you should know this is my first fic. I've been writing stories in my head for years but none made it on paper. The characters may be OOC though I'll try not to make them that way. The first chapter will be a bit long ( its intro and exposition) but the rest will be shorter. The story is supposed to be in present tense but for some reason, my writing often comes out in the past tense so yeah. Prepare to dive right in and meet a pair of siblings that would do anything for each other. You DON’T need to read this it's tagged but it will give extra info there is also a tldr down below (this story will also include huntlow with hunter and willow liking each other very much and in a super cute genuine way. With hunter and amity, amity will be incredibly suspicious of him not knowing hunter's intentions for her girlfriend and hunter not thinking amity is good enough for his sister as well as being slightly skeptical of Amity's intentions towards his not sister. There is also Eda and hunter distrusting each other slightly but it will mostly just be funny. I'll try to include things like gus and willow's friendship, amity and willow's friendship, and gus and hunters friendship. I don't know if I will include too much. All I know is if you want to see hunter get a family you'll be reassured to know he has a sister who loves him and more family on the way.Tldr This is a fic by an author who is getting the hang of things but it will have cute platonic relationships. Of course the main luz and hunter, (an argumentative hunter and amity, a skeptical of each other Hunter and Eda,) as well as sweet romantic relationships (Some cute crush-ish Huntlow, minor Lumity, and mentioned Vasha.) Luz and Hunter are siblings for the win!I changed some tags as many of these things will be mentioned scarcly.

Board games 5

Willow was surprised Hunter noticed. She thought she had hidden it well but it was Caleb. Of course, he realized. He always happily surprised her

 

Luz spins a 2 and passes a payday she grabbed the 50k from Willow who had already grabbed it from the bank and then grabbed an action card. 

 

Comedy competition everyone tries to make you laugh bank pays anyone who can 50k but if you keep a straight face the bank pays you 200k 

 

Everyone tries to make jokes. Gus puts on an illusion and does funny voices Amity hesitantly makes jokes Willow also tried. 

 

Luz started laughing after she looked at Hunter. He was laughing in an exaggerated way. Luz sighed and grabbed 50k for Hunter.

 

"I’m a sympathetic laugher" she explained, "if someone else laughs so do I".

 

It still surprised her the connection the two had. It was interesting. It had been adorable to see the look of horror and defensiveness on his face when Luz had said “Now that I'm married” Willow was pretty sure Hunter felt the same way Luz did.

 

Amity went. She landed on a payday and Willow and Amity’s hands bumped as they both reached for the money. 

 

Gus got a 10 and he smiled “I'm taking the life path” he announced he got a 9 when he spun again. He handed Willow and Hunter their money.

Luz got a 10 and paid Hunter and pointed herself to the family path. “You're going to want to take the family path. You get 50k at the end per kid”

 

“Isn’t that a little-” Hunter started 

 

“Messed up? Yes but it’s how the game works” 

 

“I was going to say illogical but that works too.”

 

Luz spun again and landed on a single girl baby.

 

Amity landed on the stop with a two she paid Luz before spinning again.

 

She spun a house.

Amity nodded in determination "Then I will get one"

“Karate classes pick an opponent both do a cool karate chop and spin bank pays the highest spinner seventy k"

 

Luz grinned wickedly “Hunter” 

 

He eyed her warily but stood. 

 

Okay, you have to do this she screeched and did an over-the-top karate chop. After almost a minute of coaxing, he did the same though, he was much calmer. Luz grumbled about how it wasn’t embarrassing enough

Amity got an 8 and landed on the risky road / safe route. She looked at Luz 

 

“Risky road could make you win or lose money safe route doesn’t have those risks. Amity nodded and turned her car to the safe route."

Gus got 0 babies with his small spin then got a 4 second. His action said “Tax refund collect 50k” he grabbed it from the bank.

 

Hunter spun a 9 so did Willow.  They paid Gus 40k and got to the stop.

 

Willow and Hunter landed on another house and Willow and Hunter said no again. 

 

Luz landed on the stop and took the risky road. She landed on an action. “Start an online business; pay the bank 50k?” she groused "I should be making money.”

 

Amity spun and got an action

 

 She read the card ”Be nice for a price ask everyone if they’d like a drink collect fifty k from anybody who says yes and get the drinks no, really get the drinks.”

 

 Amity looks around Willow shakes her head no so does Luz but Gus says yes 

 

Amity walks towards the door but is grabbed by Hunter 

 

“let go of me.” 

 

“No”

 

What was going on was this a coven thing?

 

"I’m not letting you take the owl ladies' stuff. You seem smart but you must be stupid” he glares at her. 

 

“I mean it let go of me.” She tries to shake his grip even using a self-defense move. He grimaces in pain but doesn’t let go.

 

"I am not going to let you experience the consequences of your reckless actions. The owl lady isn’t doing anything on my watch.”

 

“Hunter” Luz raises her hands carefully “let go of Amity”

 

“Why? We might not like each other but it’s my job to protect the citizens of the Boiling Isles. It's my duty, one that I chose. And I am not letting a civilian cross the owl lady."

 

Just then Amity twists again and makes it out of his grip his expression turns self-condemning and he luges to grab her again. 

 

He fails and they wind up in a standoff staring at each other Hunter placing himself in a protective position in front of the door. 

 

Gus laughs awkwardly "I could cancel my drink order." 

 

“No Gus” Amity grits out “I’ll get you your drink.”

 

She pulls out Ghost's staff and Hunter grabs Flapjack. 

 

Willow knows what’s going on Hunter thinks The Owl Lady is dangerous because that is what the real danger said. 

 

Willow pops up between the two. 

 

“Hunter it's okay” He looks a little surprised and lowers Flapjack slightly.

 

 “You just said you don’t think Amity is stupid right?” Willow questioned

 

“Yes,” he says cautiously 

 

“Then don’t you think that she would have chosen to discard the card if it held any real danger?”

 

“Don’t you think our parents would have never let us come here if we were in any real danger?” (she decided not to mention Amity’s parents didn’t want her here. That had nothing to do with danger anyway)

 

“Amity knows that she won’t be in danger. We know she won’t all of us know the owl lady better than you.”

 

“Yep” Luz pipes in “The worst danger is from the drinks themselves and even that is minor. The worst I get is a stomach ache and that’s probably since I’m human.”

 

Hunter looks between Willow and Luz “Allow me to accompany you” he says in a commanding tone

 

“Hunter, manners. Also, apologize to Amity for grabbing her. That was incredibly uncool.” "This isn’t like when I try to walk into a fight. This is a normal situation at my house.”

 

He bowed his head “My apologies for man-handling you. I simply-” 

 

“No buts,” Luz said strictly 

 

Hunter looked annoyed for a second but turned back to Amity “My apologies. Please let me accompany you for your protection” 

 

Amity glared at him but when she saw Luz’s hopeful expression she relented. 

 

“Let's all go.”

 

Everyone nodded and started to stand

 

Amity stopped Gus- “Your coming defeats the entire point. You stay here”

 

He shrugged and they walked downstairs 

 

Willow saw they had Gus’s favorite drink.

 

”Eda we're grabbing something” Luz shouted

 

Hunter’s eyes widened in horror but Eda simply shouted back

 

“If you make a mess you will be the one cleaning it up this time kiddo”

 

“Okay Eda” 

 

They all walked back upstairs. 

 

Amity handed Gus his drink and he took a sip

Luz gets a 6

 

 Hunter scores a 4.

Hunter gets a 9 and pays Gus. Willow gets a 5 and they're on the risky road 

 

It seems like fun to Willow “Let's do it” she looks at Hunter I mean if you’re okay”
