Time until Azul's contract expires: one day....


 It ends now.

-------------------------------------------------------------

The plan was set, simple in its design. Yuu would lead Ace, Deuce, Jack, and Grim on a daring mission to break into the Atlantica Memorial Museum. The objective: to lure the mischievous twins into following them, thereby granting Leona and Ruggie the perfect opportunity to pilfer the coveted contract. It was a straightforward scheme, and as Yuu observed the trio and Jack engaged in a fierce battle with the twins, it appeared to be working like a charm.

Standing on the sidelines, Yuu held their breath, a twinge of worry gnawing at them. They hesitated to unleash their enchanting voice once more, fearing that the trio might recall the bizarre events of the previous night. The memory of their inexplicable amnesia still puzzled Yuu, but they had decided not to question it further.

"Okay, I'm tired of chasing 'em around," Floyd grumbled, displaying a hint of boredom.

"There's not long to go now. Let's just enjoy it," Jade added, his grip firm on Grim's tail.

"Hey, Yuu! The sun's close to setting!" Jack called out before taking a hit to the chest from Floyd's tail. Grim, meanwhile, swam away from Jade's approaching hand.

"I'm positive. They'll come through for us!" Yuu declared with unwavering confidence, narrowly avoiding another playful strike. Beneath their feet, Scar, in his semi-ghostly state, lay in silent support. He had placed his trust in the success of this daring venture, knowing that the outcome held the key to their bonding time with Yuu.

With that out of the way. This fanfic shifts over to Leona and Ruggie.

"Shyeheehee! Managed to swipe 'em without a hitch, huh?" Ruggie smirked, eyeing the pile of contracts in Ruggie's hands.

"Y'know, your compulsive pickpocketing never ceases to amaze me," Leona replied with a mischievous grin.

"Hey, if you wanna keep somethin' safe, you gotta keep your pockets secured too," Ruggie quipped. "I'm still not over how many contract scrolls there are. I count around five to six hundred."

"Hmph. He's probably been trapping people in contracts and stockpiling 'em since long before he enrolled. Now that we've got the contracts outside the VIP room, that just leaves one thing to do... "I am the one who hungers. I am the one who thirsts. I am the one to rob you of your future— " Leona began, but his words were interrupted.

"Hold it!" Azul's voice cut through the tension.

"Whoops. That was quick," Leona said, raising an eyebrow. "Don't come any closer, or the contracts are toast."

"G-give them back... Give them back now, if you please!" Azul pleaded, his usually composed demeanor slipping.

"Hey now, at least try to sound composed,"Ruggoe chimed in. "Have you decided to drop the cool act altogether? Judging by the way you're panicking; they were right on the money."

"Wait... What?" Azul's eyes widened in surprise.

"Tch, whose idea did you think this is?" Leona sneered.

"This was Yuu's idea?!" Azul exclaimed. "Why? Why am I being hassled like this?! Yuu stands to gain nothing whatsoever from releasing the anemones! It's ridiculous!"
