The Mirror

The others are already asleep in their respectable rooms since some rooms have been renovated by Virgo, but Grim decided to stay where (Name) is. As the gray cat snored beside her, the Heartfilia seems to be bothered and causing her to not sleep. Until the mirror on the wall glowed, triggering her...

    Cautiously, she went near the mirror, "Is someone there...?" It asked. It's the same big-eared shadowy figure once again. "How beautiful..." It awed.

     "Who are you?" The Heartfilia asked it. "I'm Mickey Mouse. Am I dreaming again? I've been dreaming the same thing. Another woman's voice echoes every time I find this mirror around dancing card soldiers and a music box. Yet your voice kept getting clearer and clearer... Where are you?"

     "Twisted Wonderland..."

- Ramshackle Dorm -

     "Good morning, (Name)," Grim greeted as he woke up. "Ya know, you stepped on my tail last night. Did you sleepwalk again? If not, you better watch where you're going. My dream got ruined because of it," He said to her.

     Meanwhile, with (Name), she paid no mind about stepping on his tail since she was bothered by the fact the mirror could be something that'll bring her back to Earthland. Then again, she knew she has leftover business here in Twisted Wonderland, "So Mickey and the woman weren't anything related to my hallucinations," she whispered to herself.

     Happy barged inside, "Hey, you two sleepyheads! We still need to go to Scarabia, our holidays aren't done yet!" He yelled at them. Grim scrunched his face, looking at (Name), "Why are you looking at me like that? That's weird yanno. C'mon, we need to get dressed before the food runs out again!"

- End of Holidays, Main Street -

     "Heya, (Name)-chan~!" Ace greeted as he placed an arm around the Dorm Leader of Ramshackle. The A-Deuce combo came back to their respective homes after their unannounced arrival between the holidays, "I see you guys every day, but it felt like I know you for years already." Deuce commented.

     "Bet you guys missed me," Happy and Grim stated. "Yeah no, they don't. At least not the both of you to say the least," Carla said, mocking them. 

     "You two, stop bickering," Pantherlily warned Grim and Happy, who are clashing foreheads again. Frosch and Lector seem to be the most obedient cats in the dorm, considering they don't talk that much, unlike the other cats.

     "You three, stop blocking the way," a familiar voice told the A-Deuce combo and (Name). Ace offered his hand to give a high-five, "Whoa, Jack~! You got a bit darker, bro!" He told him.

     "Did I?" Jack asked them. (Name) provided him a mirror to look at himself, which he gratefully took. Touching his face, he said, "It must be because I was skiing in the holidays. Anyways, I saw the vid about the Vice Dorm Leader in Scarabia."

     (Name) flinched from the memory, "We don't linger in the past anymore, Jack. Plus, it's solved so no need to worry," she assured and patted Jack's shoulder. "Wait, it snows a lot in your place? That sounds nice!" Ace butted in the conversation.

     "What's skiing? It sounds fun! I wanna try it too!" The gray cat said as he started to jump up and down. "Grim, you might hit someone if you kept doing that!" Deuce chided, not until someone bumped into him. The person was shaking as he fell on the ground, making Deuce scared because he thought it was his fault. "Sorry about that. Here, let me help you," the blueberry offered his hand.

     (Name) gasped, "He's crying. Are you okay? Are you hurt?" She asked and tried to help him too. "Professor~! Deuce Spade made someone cry over here~!" Ace called, causing Deuce to flinch because he was scared to make something tarnish his reputation again.

     "Ace, that's not funny!" Deuce told his mocking friend. He immediately turned back his attention to the crying person in front of him, "Are you badly hurt? Do you want to go to the clinic so we can tend your wounds? I am so sorry again. Here I can carry you, just stand up, okay?" He instructed.

     "Goddamnit..." The lavender-haired guy cursed under his breath, leaving Deuce and (Name) confused. Then the guy ran away from them, "And, he's gone. It's your fault, Deuce," Ace whispered.

     "He's in my class. Epel Felmier, first year from the Pomefiore Dorm," Jack told them. Deuce watched as Epel's figure disappeared in his peripheral vision, "Epel Felmier..."

- Ballroom, Pomefiore Dorm -

     Vil Schoenheit, Dorm Leader of Pomefiore, looks mad. He was scolding two students about how careless they got Epel to escape the dorm, "So, he got away. Rook! Come here at once!" He ordered. Just then, the said man appeared and entered the room using a window, "You called, Roi de Poisons?" He bowed with his hat on his chest.

     "Capture him and bring him here at once. You know who I'm talking about, right?" Vil inquired, his eyes presenting how impatient he is. "Oui, as you wish, My Queen." Rook excused himself, leaving the dorm.

     "I'll never let you escape... I must do what it takes to be the fairest of them all..."
