The Dark Angel (REBOOTED)

Chapter 27

Inside of team ODDS dorm, the group were immersed in a card game the twins were playing against each other

Dominic: I summon...Blue Eyes White Dragon!!

Dante: What?!

Obito:*gasp* Oh no!!

Sapphire: ......*sips from a soda can*

Dominic: Hahaha!! I end my turn Dante! Now draw your last pathetic cards so that I can end this farce!

Dante: My deck has no pathetic cards brother! But it does contain-!

Dante draws a card and his chances of victory dropped faster than a crashing plane when he sees it's a card he can't use

Dante: Uh...it's a...hehe~

Dominic:*smirk* Well~? Play it.

Dante: U-uh...

The intercom comes to life and Glynda calls for the entirety of team ODDS to come to Ozpin's office immediately

Dante:~Phew! Saved by the bell!~

Dominic: Tch! You got lucky.

Obito: Let's just go. I swear Dante if we're in trouble because of you.

Dante: What? I didn't do anything that they would find out.

Sapphire:*sigh* Let's just go.

Dominic rolls his eyes and throws down his cards before they all leave to Ozpin's office

Once inside, the boys were briefed on why they were brought up by Glynda while Ozpin looked outside the window behind him while he sat on his chair with his coffee mug sitting on his desk

Glynda: Boys...I'm going to keep this as short as I can.

Obito: What's wrong?

Glynda: That's what we're wondering and...we wanted to know if you could tell us.

Sapphire: Does this have to do with a demon?

Glynda: We're not sure.

Glynda hands Dante her data pad and he flips through multiple images of students in beds as pale as snow with black vines wrapping around their bodies

Dante: Geez...

Sapphire: What could cause this?

Dante: Possession? But on this scale it's not possible it's one demon.

Dominic: How long has this been going on?

Glynda: For about a week..

Obito: A week?!

Glynda: We assumed it was some kind of outbreak of a flu and thought nothing of it. Until...

Sapphire: Until..?

Ozpin stood up from his chair and walked around his desk

Ozpin: Until students started to see the nurse about hearing voices in their dreams...

Dominic: What else? What did the voice tell them?

Glynda: It said for them to..ahem. "Let your pain flow. Let me make it all go away. Let me feel your pain."

Obito:*gulp* D-definitely a demon.

Sapphire: Why pain?

Dante: Who knows? It probably thrives off of suffering.

Sapphire: If it's trying to get its fill here, then it must be inside of the school.

Dominic: That's one explanation.
