Yuu couldn't believe they were being dragged into watching a cat and three ghosts play Spelldrive. Their mother's voice echoed in their mind, questioning why they weren't spending more time with Riddle, who seemed like a promising young man. Yuu internally sighed. "Mama, Riddle is cool and all, but he's not that funny."
"I just think that you need someone logical to balance out your, well, not exactly logical ways," their mother replied. "Mama!" Yuu mentally protested.
Just then, they heard Crowly approaching with his characteristic key and mirror. "Good day. Playing some Spelldrive?" he inquired as he reached Yuu.
Suppressing a sigh, Yuu got up and walked over to Grim. Grim grumbled, "Aaand here comes the Fun Police. There goes my good mood, right down the drain."
"I'm pleased to see you're all getting along. Quite pleased indeed," Crowly remarked.
"Yeah, they just keep comin' back anyway. Might as well get along, I guess. Did you want something, or..." Grim began before Crowly cut him off. "I have a request to make of you both. Why don't we take this inside?"
"Well, let's head back to Ramshackle and discuss this request," Yuu said, casting a skeptical glance at Crowly. "We can pluck his feathers if you want, shrimpy," one of their parents whispered in their mind. Not yet, Yuu replied mentally.
As they settled down, Crowly took a seat across from Yuu and Grim. Ramshackle placed a tea set and a tempting plate of sweets, cookies, and cake on the table.
"So, what's your request, Dire?" Yuu inquired. 'Yeah, kid, give that bird a challenge,' one of their parents chimed in.
"I'll get straight to the point. There have been a series of suspicious incidents on campus lately, resulting in students getting hurt. I'm here to ask for your assistance in investigating the matter," Crowly explained.
"Hmm," Yuu responded.
Crowly continued, describing incidents like students falling downstairs or getting scalded by boiling water. While the details of each incident varied, there had been a notable increase in patients at the nurse's office over the past few days, with as many as ten students injured.
"So, you want me to figure out what's going on," Yuu said, placing their teacup down before pointing at Grim. "I'll agree to help, but only if you allow Grim to join a Spelldrive team."
"Well...fine. I am counting on you both." Crowly says as he gets up to leave. Yuu waits a couple of minutes before waving their hand, telling Ramshackle to clean up and that they may be a bit late.
"Grim, it looks like we have some work to do," Yuu said, leading the way out of Ramshackle.
As they investigated the incidents, it seemed that none of the students had a clear understanding of what had happened. They described feeling as though their bodies were not under their control and engaging in actions they wouldn't normally do. 'Sounds like someone possesses a unique kind of mind-controlling magic, cub. Pay attention to those around you who might want this to occur; they might be right in front of you.'
"Grim, let's head back to Ramshackle. I need to sing a song to clear my mind," Yuu said, pulling Grim along with them.
"Yuu, wait up! We've got a serious problem!" a voice called out from behind. Yuu turned around to see Deuce and Ace rushing toward them.
"Slow down before you hurt yourselves," Yuu cautioned.
"Trey fell down the stairs! He's hurt!" Deuce gasped, catching his breath. Ace took hold of Yuu and Grim, urging them to follow as he guided them to the mirror room.
