Scary Monsters! ~Screaming Halloween Show~, Part 13

"Ah!" A light bulb went on in Silver's head and he turned to Rainier, who also figured out where Vil was getting to. "Like the signs you posted in the Mirror Chamber?" Silver asked him.

"Exactly. Lay out a set of rules to follow, like our dorm or Diasomnia..." Vil began.

"...and whoever breaks them, we will deem them as Magicam Monsters." Jade finished.

"Ah, I get it now." Epel said in understanding. "Then we just expel those people."

"YEAH! We'll blow 'em off campus!" Epel, Deuce and Jack all shouted in a fury, ready to get things started and get the Magicam Monsters out of their school for good. They were able to pull off the whole "Security system" trick so why not just keep doing that until they're far from the school? Willow paled and tried to stop them from doing anything rash, but fortunately, Idia spoke up and froze them in their tracks.

"Okay, but this whole "security system" gimmick can only carry us so far." He said. "These guys aren't stupid. If they figure out we're using magic on the DL, we're gonna be the ones in hot water." This caused everyone to freeze up and groan in mild annoyance. He was right, they can't use that idea forever and there was a chance the school's reputation - and their own - would plummet down to the abyss.

"True. It doesn't matter how much of a nuisance they're being." Cater said as he reached up to play with the end of his hair. "We're still not magic marshals. We're not supposed to use magic against laypeople at all. Halloween Week would be the least of our problems if we got caught. Our whole school would get hammered by society!"

"Then...what about we use fists!" Deuce offered.

"Please, don't do that." Willow begged him, clasping her hands together.

"Dude, do you WANT the police called in?" Ace questioned him.

"I'm up for setting their butts and costumes on fire if it means getting them out." Ember stated, igniting a flame on her fingertip.

"Ember, you do know that would end well for anyone, right?" Zephyrine asked.

"Must we remind you that we're forbidden from attacking or harming non-magical citizens?" Eira added. "Even if their sense of style is a bit atrocious."

"Hey, those idiots are the very type who don't learn anything unless the consequences of their actions smash into them like a battering ram to the skull!" Ember said in her defence.

"We are NOT hurting normal civilians, Ember." Rosebell sternly told her. The Fire Fairy glared at the Garden Fairy before she let out an angered groan and sulked away on Willow's head.

"So we need a way to eject Magicam Monsters without attacking 'em." Grim mused. "Is that even possible?"

"Hmmm..." Everyone stood together as they tried to come up with a solution. Willow fiddled with the ends of her costume as she wondered the same thing. They'll find out the security system was a lie and she didn't want there to be unnecessary violence towards any one of them. Doing either of them will result in them getting the brunt end of it once the local authorities get called in. She didn't want her beloved friends and school to be under such a negative viewpoint. 'I know there must be a peaceful solution for this. But what? What can we do to escort them out without causing harm?' She thought to herself.

Suddenly, everyone jumped in shock when a loud burst of laughter rang out.

"AHA HAHAHAHAHA!!!"

The other students turned and saw that Floyd was hunched over, his arms wrapped around his waist as he continued to laugh hysterically. Riddle felt his eye twitch and shot a glare at the taller second-year's way. Of all times, can't there be a moment when that idiot took something seriously?! "Floyd... We're trying to ponder a very pressing issue here. Would you care to explain what's so funny?" Riddle growled out.
