Venomous (Twisted Wonderland x Fem! Reader)

3: Unknown Place

Y/n POV

"People are coming. Gotta get the uniform while..." there was a short pause followed by a deep breath of exhaustion. It looks like the person on the other didn't notice my awakening. "Grr!! The lid is to heavy. Time for my secret move" hearing the voice words, it so called secret move peaked my interest.

"Well, what's th—OHMYFUDGINGGOD!" blue flames starts to sip inside the coffin—COFFIN?! oh hell na! With all my might I kicked down the door, that which unknown to me sent the other creature flying meters away.

The loud crush of a body colliding with the brick wall accompanied by a shout of horror. Looking over, I saw a cat with blue flames in it ears.

"Whaa...you are awake this whole time?"

"Duh..."

"Whatever, human. Give your uniform" he commanded after properly standing himself up from the fall.

Raising a brow at him, I trace my eyes up and down at his figure before scoffing. "You won't fit in my clothes. And who would want to dress themselves with this r...ag?" confusion flash over me after looking down at what I'm wearing.

The heck is this cult outfit? Never in my whole life did I ever signed myself up in a cult— or did I?...Yup not the time. Focusing my attention once again to the feline and form an X sign with both my index finger.

My action angered it "...Do you know who am I? I am THE GREAT GRIM!!! So human, hurry and gimme the clothes!" he ordered. Seeing I still have no intention on giving him the clothes, he threatened me "...or I'll roast ya!" he blow out blue flames from his mouth, as a warning.

The flames didn't scared but I still wanted to tease the cat so I pretended. "Oh no...Help somebody, help! Some cat is trying to take thy clothing of mine!!" I said dramatically as I run out of the place through the unknown corridor.

We spent minutes of the cat and mouse chase till we reach the library, I suppose. I stopped for a few minutes to catch my breath when suddenly blue flames fired up out of nowhere.

Grim, if I'm not mistaken with the name caught up with me in no time, which doesn't surprise me. "You really think you can run away from my nose? Dumb Human!" he said smugly.

"If you don't want to be roasted, better hand— Buwah! What's with this rope?!" Grim is now tangled in a rope. Following the rope length, I my eyes meet glowing eyes. The owner of the pair of eyes, emerged from the shadow.

It was a man, tall enough, and with unique style because of those crow feathers adored around his body. Our eyes meet "Ah, finally found you. Are one of the new students?" he asked me.

"No—"

"You shouldn't do things like that. Leaving the gate on your own! And further more, you have even tame your familiar which broke a lot of school rules already!" I stood there listening to him rant.

"I'm not their familiar" Grim protested as he struggle to break free from the rope's grip.

The bird man, pretended to not hear Grim's words "Sure, sure. Rebellious ones always has dialogues like that. Keep quiet for a bit" the bird man said as he covers Grim's cat mouth.

Done with his business with the feline creature, now all his attention goes back to me. "The entrance ceremony is already half way through. Let's head to the Hall of Mirrors" another question rock my brain as I've heard those words he said.

Everything is so confusing, damn that horse. Why did he take me to cult with floating coffins, with these blue flamed toaster and man with suck weird fashion taste?

Composing myself, I ask "Um...sir, what are you talking about. I'm a bit confuse" the man in front of eyed me with confusion.

After some time he bop his head up and down then started speaking "The room you woke up earlier with floating coffin which we considered doors. All students who wish to entered this academy must pass through those doors to arrive here...Normally students can wake up after the door has been open but...." his words faded into murmurs that he can only hear.

Oh..."...I kicked the door opened, after almost got roasted by a certain feline" I give Grim a little grin "...right, Grim?" my words made the man look at Grim in disdain "So in the end the culprit is this familiar" once again his gold has landed on me "If you're going to take it with you, you have to take responsibility and take care of it" he lectured me.

"Excuse me, I told you he ain't my pet—"

"hmp hmp HMP! (what pet huh?!)"

"—this gremlin, I don't even know where he came from!—"

"...Oh my! Now isn't the time to be long winded" he tightened his grip on the rope and was ready to leave but before he can do so, I pop a question out "Wait a minute, who even are you?" halted from his movement, the man look back at me "...Oh, looks like you are still dazed. The teleportation magic has left you disoriented. Well it's fine, it happens often enough." a smile appeared on his face "I shall give you a explanation as we make our way there..."

Finally..."Thank you, sir—"

"For I am gracious"

I deadpan to as how many times I have been cut off for today, when back home no one even dared to talk back at me. Well except for my siblings especially Lucas, that brat.

•.•.•

Walking through the darkened empty hall of this place, we found ourselves in a place that somewhat looked like a courtyard.

"Ahem..." the man expectorate "This is Night Raven College. Those magicians with unique amplitude for magic gather from all over the world, here at the most prestigious magical academy in Twisted Wonderland. And I am the headmaster, appointed to take care if this academy by the board chairman, Dire Crowley." he sounded proud of himself as he described himself in his words.

"...Uh huh..." I said uninterested for I am frustrated, why do I need to go to school AGAIN?! I don't wanna.

"Only those magicians seen worthy by the Dark Mirror can attend this school. Chosen ones uses the gate and are summoned here from around the world."

"I don't wanna go to school..."

"An Ebony Carriage carrying a gate should have gone to meet you as well"

"...No...school..."

"...Youngster, are you listening?" that snap me back and clap my hands "Yes mister, nice...uh...nice presentation, it's well explained. Thank you" Headmaster Crowley smiled with my pleasantry. How easy to swoon over.

"The Ebony carriage..."

"His not yet done?"

"...goes to welcome new students chosen by the Dark Mirror. They are special carriages that carry the doors to the academy." he stop talking, his silence gave me a glimmer of hope that his done talking.

"Mugamm! Hmppp!" directing my eyes on Grim, he seems frustrated being restrained. "How cute..." Grim's blue pair of eyes meet mine, that moment I gave him a mocking grin. My taunt work and the fire in his ears grow bigger but the headmaster didn't seem to notice.

"Come. Let's go to the entrance ceremony" and we once again journey inside the soulless corridor.
