- Hold on.

The wind is almost...

Gone.

- Wai... wait!

So the entrance to the witches' council is just

behind some lockers at my school?

- A guardian can set up a door to the witches' council

wherever she wants.

- Sweet!

When I become a full guardian,

I'm gonna put one at the bottom of the pool.

Then I'll jump off the diving board

straight into the portal...

- Andi, I'm sorry, but the witches' council

won't let non-witches in.

- Even if that particular non-witch

is acting as a guardian?

- An unofficial guardian.

Yes, even then.

- Yeah, well, I didn't want to join anyway.

Just wanted the cool gadgets.

- I got to go.

- Some X-ray goggles would be great!

[Magical tone]

I really need to change my ringtone.

"Yes, lily thinks the principal is"...

how should I put this?

"An uber-wacko super bad witch.

Gone to the council to warn them."

Ah! - Warn them about what?

[Upbeat pop music]

- ¶ I cast a spell

¶ it takes a hold of you

¶ I see my dreams

¶ and they're all coming true ¶

¶ come on, let's go ¶

¶ you and me together

¶ look up ahead

¶ there's a magical adventure ¶

¶ I'm trying every witch way, ay, ay, ay, ay ¶

¶ I'm going every witch way, ay, ay, ay, ay ¶

¶ every witch way ¶

- come on, Daniel.

- Are you going to play or what?

[Strums guitar]

[Microphone feedback]

- Turn that off!

- Now!

- Okay, okay.

Jeez, sorry, Daniel.

The floor is yours for now.

- Thanks.

Uh, this is a song I wrote.

It doesn't... it's about...

why don't I just play it?

¶ I know it's been a while but I got to let you know ¶

¶ I still think of you

¶ I'm not very sure if it's right ¶

¶ yeah, yeah

- I had a wonderful time, Daniel.

You did an excellent job rotating my umbrella

in time with the sun, just like old times.

- I'm glad, Maddie, but look, I need to be honest.

We won't be going out anymore.

- What? But you asked me to beach ball.

- I know.

Look, I don't want to lead you on,

but I'm interested in someone else.

- What?

And you better not say... - Emma.

- That's who I meant when I said, "you better not say."

- Wow, your face is really red.

Like, uh, crazy fire engine red.

I should probably go and let you, um, cool off.

Okay, bye.

- Maddie winky!

I...

is something burning?

[Gasps] Oh!

- So tell me the truth, Andrea.

How do you know about witches if you aren't one?

- I know all about magic and witches

and the magic realm because...

I'm a guardian.

So you better stand back, or I'll... I'll guardify you.

- If you were a guardian,

you'd know that you can smell a witch a mile away.

You just smell like car oil and sweat.

- Oh, why, thank you.

- Where is the real guardian, the nurse?

- The nurse is a guardian?

No.

- No more lies.

If the nurse went to see the council,

she must have set up an entrance nearby.

Tell me where the entrance to the witches' council is,

or I will turn you into a frog

permanently.

- You'll turn me into a frog.

Is that the best you can do?

- Frog is my preferred mode of punishment.

But for you, I can make an exception.

- Oh, then might I suggest a saber-toothed tiger?

Polar bear?

Saber-toothed polar tiger bear!

- How about I just turn you into a cricket

and feed you to my other frogs?

- Oh, I see.

You're low-balling me.

My dad says any offer

is just a jumping off point for negotiations.

But okay, I'll jump down from saber-toothed polar tiger bear,

and maybe we could do a wolf-owl hybrid or...

- silence!

This is your last chance or...

- [Shrieks]

Wh... this is so cool.

I can swim so much faster now.

Thank you!

- Not if I finish the job.

- What?

Thud!

- You're back!

I guess you really are mine.

Hey, wait.

I wasn't trying to be possessive or anything.

I was just saying...

Oh, no.

- You're going to look so good in green

with Amber spots and lots of warts.

- Frogs don't have warts. Toads do.

- For the last time, where is the door to the council?

- Student council?

Well, you go straight down the hall and make a left.

Then you make a right.

Then you make another right and th...

- wha...

- hex?

- Maddie, I finally figured it out.

I'm your guardian.

- Whoo-hoo, congratulations.

- I have to start guardianing you, stat.

- Can you start tomorrow?

And you can't use "stat." That's my thing.

- Yes, I can.

I'm your mother.

And I'm your guardian, and as your guardian,

I get to tell you what to do.

- [Sighs] Look, mom.

I had a terrible day.

I just want to sleep.

- No. - What?

- No.

I am your guardian, and we have an eclipse to get ready for.

[Thunder rumbling]

- [Sighs]

What's the point?

We lost the book,

we have no idea how to steal Emma's powers back,

and Daniel dumped me.

- Oh, Maddie winky, who cares about Daniel?

When you become the chosen one,

you can make a hundred Daniels.

Oh, Maddie, you will be the chosen one.

And when you are, you will give me powers.

And together we will rule...

North Miami.

- So Maddie just wanted to talk?

About what?

- Nothing in particular.

Why are you so curious?

Why is everyone so curious about me all of a sudden?

- I'm not; It was just totally weird

to see Maddie being nice to you.

And what do you mean by "everyone"?

- Good morning.

I can still see you.

- What is she doing?

- You don't even want to know.

I couldn't even tell you,

because I don't even know myself.

[Over loudspeaker] - Mr. rueda.

Please report to the office immediately.

- [Whines]

[Shouts]

- Do you know why you're here?

- Uh, my grades?

The stink bombs that somebody made in chemistry class?

The special mustard in the cafeteria?

- You're here because I hear you're gifted.

- [Laughs]

What?

Wait, you definitely heard wrong,

because I'm in remedial everything.

Even lunch. I have to use a spork.

- Not that kind of gifted.

The kind where you can do tricks.

- Oh, well, uh, I can do a back flip belly flop

into the pool,

and I can burp the national anthem,

and I can eat 12 hot dogs before I barf.

- That's not what I'm talking about.

You know what I mean.

- What?

- I know you're a kanay, so drop the act.

- You?

You know about kanays?

Are you one too?

- No, I'm not a kanay, thank goodness.

- Oh.

You don't like kanays too?

- Why?

- Well, julio was telling me

about how witches don't like kanays.

- Julio. He did?

Did he tell you anything else about witches?

- Nah, but it did take me a while

to believe that they existed.

But then I thought to myself, "I exist,

so, like, why can't they?"

Then I got all, "what does it mean to exist?"

And "are we really here?"

Then my arms got all red and hot.

It was... - And then what did you do?

- I ate some nachos and stopped thinking about it.

- Hey, em.

- Andi! Finally.

What's going on? - Not so loud.

I don't want to call any attention to myself.

- Then that hat and those sunglasses have to go.

You look like Maddie's eviler twin.

- Gross.

- Why didn't you answer my calls?

- My phone could be tapped.

Listen, I'm not so sure we should be in school today.

- Oh, don't start with that again.

I am not skipping school

to play middle earth domination, fourth edition.

Or fifth. Or sixth.

- But fifth edition is so worth it.

But that's not what I meant.

Lily and I found out who the principal is, and...

- And?

- Let me finish my dramatic pause, em.

- Andi! - It's not good.

She's some kind of cray-cray- in-a-bad-way witch.

Scary enough to send lily running to the council for help.

- Oh, no.

I mean, good that lily went to get help

but bad that the principal is cray-cray in a bad way.

- It gets worse.

Look what she did to me.

- [Laughs]

- That's not funny.

Okay, I liked them at first, but they're not very practical.

- You're right. It's terrible.

Just "te-web-ble."

- Seriously, now?

- Don't worry; I can fix your hands.

How did you get away?

- Same way I got to school today:

The hex.

- So now that you know, what are you gonna do to me?

- Do to you? Nothing.

I just want you to know that I know

in case you need someone to confide in.

- Thanks, but I'm fine.

So what can you do with your powers?

- Not that much. I can just freeze water.

- Fascinating. Show me.

- What? Here?

Now? - Yes.

Here. Now.

- No, I can't.

- You can, and you will.

[Picture frame scratches]

What was that?

- Okay, I'll show you.

But first, uh, I need to get water

from the cafeteria.

That's the best water to freeze.

And then I'll unfreeze it with a heat ball.

- You can control fire already?

- A little. Julio's been teaching me.

- And then they call me weird.

- I kind of miss my webbed hands.

- You said they're not very practical.

- Yeah, but it's like that old saying:

[Speaking Spanish]

"Everyone misses their webbed hands once they're gone."

- I speak Spanish, and that's not a saying.

- Yeah? Well, it should be.

Are you sure this is safe?

I feel like we should be hiding from the principal,

not hanging out on her own turf.

- Lily told me that if anything goes wrong

to keep coming to school and act like nothing's wrong.

- Hmm, interesting tactic: Safety in numbers.

But what are we gonna do about the you-know-what?

- We keep it with us at all times,

at least until after the eclipse.

- What about the eclipse? - Danny.

- Uh, julio. Uh, hey.

- Did those lockers just move?

- What? Oh, yeah.

We really got to get new ones.

These are so rickety,

always moving around, about to tip over.

- No, there was a space between them,

and then they moved like automatic sliding doors,

it must've been a portal.

- A portal?

Have you been watching

science fiction movies or something?

- Okay, okay. Let's cut the charade.

I know you know I know, and you know I know, you know?

- If I only knew what you were talking about...

- that you're a guardian.

And don't try to deny it.

You'll just waste more time I'm sure you don't have,

with the eclipse coming and all.

- I...

yeah, you got me.

I am.

- The eclipse is a week away, right?

- What? How do you know about that?

- It's been all over the news. - It has?

- He's talking about the actual event, em.

The sun covers the moon. That's it.

- Oh, yeah. Right.

Sorry, I... um...

- Actually, that's not it at all.

It's a lunar eclipse,

where the earth blocks the sun and then the moon.

- It goes dark. I got it.

- [Sneezes]

- No, it turns a dark orange.

Plus, this year,

it coincides with the winter solstice,

the darkest night of the year.

S- you are such a geek, really.

Sometimes I don't know why you're even popular.

- Anyway, so I know this cool spot by the beach where...

- are you asking her out?

- Um, hey, Maddie.

- Good morning, class.

Everyone, take your seats.

- I must be losing my hearing,

because I just thought I heard Daniel asking Emma out.

- [Shouting] Can you hear me?

- Katie!

- Yep, you heard him just fine.

- Everyone, settle down. We have a lot to do.

Let's continue with the oral presentations.

Andi and Daniel, you're up.

- Wish me luck.

- Luck.

- [Mockingly] Luck. Ew.

My anger for you is at a premium.

Now you'll sound like you swallowed some helium.

- [Sneezes]

- [Clears throat]

- Watch this. It's about to get really good.

- Our fathers brought forth...

[Clears throat]

[In high-pitched voice] On this continent

a new nation conceived in liberty.

- [Stifled laughter]

- Impressive falsetto, Daniel.

Could you maybe proceed without it?

- What are you doing? - Nothing.

- Let's start over.

- You're right. This is getting good.

[Both giggle]

- [High-pitched voice] Four score and seven years ago...

- seriously, Daniel. Cut it out.

- Go, Danny!

- Now we are engaged in a great civil war.

[Laughter]

- Are you imitating me? - No!

[Laughter]

[Dramatic music]

- So if you know Diego's a kanay,

then I assume your mother knows.

- Why would you assume that?

Do I think I tell my mother everything?

Like I'm some kind of mama's boy?

Let me tell you something. I'm not.

I'm my own man.

- And I assume she knows about me too.

- Yes, she knows that you're a powerless witch,

that you're a guardian.

- And she knows who the chosen one is?

- Yep. Math teacher's daughter.

- Ri... wrong.

- Then it must be the van pelt girl.

- No, no. I didn't say that.

- It's her. [Laughs]

We've been after the wrong girl the whole time.

- Look, julio.

You don't know what you're dealing with.

This can get very bad for everyone.

- Nice try. You almost fooled us.

- [Sighs] I hope I just bought you some time, Emma.

- Hey, lily.

There you are. We've been looking for you.

Are you going somewhere?

- Lock the door. I don't know how much time I have.

Where's Emma?

- Uh, fixing Daniel's soprano.

Long story.

Are you abandoning us?

- No.

Not exactly.

The council took me off Emma's case, but...

- what? Now?

The eclipse is less than a week away.

- I'm not leaving Miami.

I just can't work in this school.

I don't have the council's protection anymore.

- I-I don't know what that means.

- It means the principal can get to me,

turn me into a houseplant, a frog,

transport me to the moon.

- Cool.

I mean, oh, no.

- Listen, Andi.

There's something you should know

in case I go missing.

The principal isn't just any witch.

The principal is a chosen one.

- I thought Emma was the chosen one.

- She is. It's complicated.

At first, I thought the principal

was just a disgraced witch that had managed

to steal her powers back little by little,

but she's much more than that.

- But the... then they should be sending extra guardians,

not taking her only one away.

[Knob jiggling]

- Nurse lily, are you in there?

[Knob jiggling]

I can hear you.

Open the door.

Hello, lily.

Going somewhere?

- Leaving us so soon?

And without giving two weeks' notice.

Not very professional of you as a nurse

or a guardian.

- So you know. - Yes.

And my son tells me you went to see the council.

- I did, and I told them who you are.

- Oh, and let me guess.

The council told you to stay away.

- They're wrong. - It's the rules.

There can be only one chosen one.

Hence the name "chosen one."

- It's not you.

- Maddie van pelt has my powers, and I will get them back.

- I'll stop you. I...

- oh, is that right?

You and your army of flies?

[Laughs]

- I don't get it.

[Magic warbling]

- Get it now?

[Laughing]

[Dramatic music]

[Sighs gleefully]
