There are wonders that not even the world of twisted wonderland can explain, the first being the strange happenings in the ramshackle building, and the 7 new students which appear out of a carriage along with a mysterious cat, and more strange event...
"Be gone be...GONE!!" This monster chased after the group, he swung his arms up and hit Deuce. Ace turned around looking annoyed with one hand holding onto a dazed Shizuoka's hand.
"Aw crap he's got Loosey-Deucey on the ropes! Not on my watch! heeyah!" He takes out his pen and uses wind magic to try and push the monster back.
"Rrrrooarrghhh!" It didn't work as they charged at Ace slamming him into the floor taking Shizuoka with him. Grim tries to get to Shizu but is blocked by the monster.
"Myaaah! Stay away from me!" He yelled afraid and uses his flames on the monster.
"Grrrrahhhhhhh!" It did nothing to the monster, it was like it was indestructible. Slowly Shizuoka started blinking snapping out of her daze she looked around at the situation.
"It's like nothing's even hurtin' it!" Grim yelled out confused, Shizuoka eyes land on something...shiny.
"What's that?" She asked while pointing at the object. Ace looked to where she was pointing.
"Hey behind the monster! There's something sparkling in the mine shaft!" Ace yelled out to everyone
"Could that have been the Magestone!?" Deuce yelled out, but in saying that it made the monster even more mad.
"GWAAAAAAAA!!! Nooooo giiive yoooooou stoneeeeee!" The monster yelled even louder causing Shizuoka to cover her ears as memories of times long since past flashed through her mind.
".........Grumpy?" She whispered out. Grim ran over to her grabbing her by the leg trying to force her out.
"Shizu we need to book it, and fast! That things gonna pound us into tuna paste!" Shizuoka instincts finally kicked in and she yelled.
"Retreat!!" As they ran from the cave Shizuoka looked back at the 'monster' but for a spit second in time the once fierce monster appeared as nothing' more than a small man with a long grey beard and a bald head crying without his hat.

"Help me....Shizu" It was but a whisper, which only Shizuoka could hear but no sooner had she heard that she was out of the cave.
............
They all ran out of the cave as fast as their legs could carry them, with Shizuoka being somewhat a daze after hearing that whisper.
"That voice.." She whispered to herself, it was then her eyes began to burn a little.
"This should be far enough, I think?" Grim said between breaths as he looked back to double check, but the monster didn't follow them.
"Owwwww... what was that thing? No one said there'd be anything like that!" Ace said while rubbing his stomach.
"That was no normal ghost that's for sure." Deuce said while crossing his arms, a pensive look on his face.
"Hey you okay?" Ace said looking at Shizuoka, she blinked and looked up her blue eyes were a bit hollow.
