Twisted-Wonderland: Our Precious Treasure (Part 2)

(121) TTotSS: Tricky Smile!

"I didn't think Sea Otter got that kind of personality," Floyd muttered from his spot on the table, swinging his legs back and forth, as Azul hummed from the chair behind him.

"Indeed, he does not seem like the type at all, however." Jade flicked his wand, disbanding his magic. The roof no longer had a hole in it. He nodded, proud of his own handy work, before walking back to Azul and Floyd. "And Jamil must've felt exhausted from dealing with that. You are in the same class as Jamil, are you not, Azul?"

"Yeah." Azul pushed his glasses up his nose. "He does not make many demands...or rather, I would say he's rather plain."

"Ah~ I'm in the basketball club with the Sea Snake, but he gives off the impression that he plays nice," Floyd said with a shrug, "I'm not interested in guys from other dorms, so I didn't notice, but he's Scarabia's vice prefect~"

"The vice prefect is troubled because of the prefect's behavior..." Azul mumbled. For some reason, a certain Heartslabyul prefect came into his mind.

"Oi."

Looking up, they saw Grim flying toward them. Before Jade and Floyd could move, Azul stood up, walking toward Grim, and both met in the middle. "You're done with your business?"

"Yeah." Grim threw the phone and Azul caught it with one hand.

"How was it?"

"Ace is coming. But..."

Grim's tail wagged in frustration. Then, he let out a groan. "Look. I am desperate." He crossed his paws in front of his chest and glared at the Azul. "So, I'll let you tag along." Jade and Floyd exchanged a worried glance at each other before looking back to Azul who tensed.

"However..." Grim flew in front of Azul's face, glaring at him as if he could kill him with his stare. His voice lowered with a growl in the end. "If you ever make him tear up, I'll burn you."

Azul frowned but nodded. "I'll take that." He stepped back and turned around. "Jade, Floyd, pack up. We're going on a sunny vacation."

"This is bad. This is bad. This is bad."

Ashoka sighed as he massaged his own shoulder to reduce soreness, watching Chandra paced back and forth in front of him. It was still throbbing his morning. He knew the twins were strong but he wasn't expecting them to be this strong.

"What are we going to do?" Chandra mumbled, his voice still sounded afraid, no doubt the memories of him serving at the Octavinelle Prefect as one of the anemones resurfaced. "He stole the prefect's carpet and got protection from Octavinelle."

"This sucks," Ashoka said, standing up from the mirror entrance stairs. Walking toward Chandra, he put both hands on his shoulders, stopping him mid-pace. "Listen. We can fix this hopefully."

"How?" Chandra asked again, one hand reached up to hold Ashoka's. "Prefect Kalim will be furious if he knows this. Who knows what will he give out as a punishment."

"If he finds out." Ashoke gave him a little shake on the shoulder. "We need to tell Vice Prefect Jamil before the prefect finds out. He'll find a way."

Chandra looked down to the ground, biting his lip. He took a deep breath once before sighing through his nose. "Yeah. You're right." He gave out a small nod. "Senior Jamil always knows the solution." He looked up to his senior, giving a small smile. "He's the best."

Ashoka couldn't help but smile as well despite their dire situations. "I know, right?" He gave Chandra a small ruffle on the head, earning a small giggle from him. "Come on, before the prefect-"
