Complete story — includes the ending

Gus discovers that Hunter is hiding in Hexside while the Emperor's Coven comes to the school to forcibly have the students join a coven for the Day of Unity. To prevent this, Gus casts a spell that covers the whole school in a series of illusions influenced by his memories. Wandering through the illusions, Gus bonds with Hunter and helps him escape from the Coven guards who are looking for him at Belos' order. Adrian Graye, the head of the Illusion Coven, captures Gus to end the spell, but Gus creates an illusion bubble that causes Graye and the Coven guards to see their worst fears. Amity, Willow, and the rest of the students fight the guards off while Hunter talks with Gus, also affected by his fears, and finally reveals to him why he left the Emperor's Coven. The illusions then dispel and the defeated Coven guards leave. Afterward, Hunter tells everyone in Hexside what the Day of Unity is really about.
