Serenity stood in the headmaster's office while holding Grim in her arms, her eyes on the ground. She still feels overwhelmed when she's near Crowley, maybe because of his personality or his strange manner of clothing but one thing is for sure, she's scared of him. Holding onto Grim slightly tighter she kept her calm. Crowley soon came past her and sat on his chair
"I've called you two here to give you assignments for today."
"Aw great, cleaning duty for us then."
Grim sighed with dismay, the last thing he wanted to do was clean so early in the morning but he's kinda glad that he had Serenity with him. She's so nice for her own good that she'll probably be the only one cleaning.
"Oh no, Serenity is my assistant now so she won't be cleaning with you, Grim."
"WHAT!!! Then who gonna help me clean, do you really expect me to clean all by myself?!"
" The Dark Mirror was very interested that she would be attending this school as a student and so she wouldn't be doing any cleaning, the cleaning is done by the custodial workers. That would be you young monster."
Grim was at a loss of words, not only was he called a monster but he was told that he wasn't a student. Serenity was also confused at the sudden revelation of the Grim's new title.
"Um, Mister Crowley. What would I be helping you with since I'm now a student? Wouldn't I be attending class right away?"
"Well, my dear girl, this school is an 'ALL BOYS SCHOOL' and you are nothing but a small girl. It's like throwing a defenseless rabbit into a den full of wolves. So on your first day as the first female student of Night Raven College, I will be introducing you to all the House Wardens of each dorm so that in case someone bothers you from any of the dorms you will know who to speak with to resolve such a issue."
'Plus Crewel would have my neck if I just leave you alone.' Crowley thought. When Crewel found out there was going to be a female student he didn't hesitate to start creating a female uniform. Crowley was stuck in a room for almost close to an hour while Crewel was raving and ranting about how there would be a new inspiration and that the boys better treat this young girl kindly or else.
"Now wait just a minute! How can I clean without any help!"
Grim jumped out of Serenity's arms and onto Crowley's desk.
"Grim is right, if you would allow me that after you finished introducing me to everyone I could help Grim clean."
Crowley couldn't help but sigh at Serenity's kindness, it was very clear that Grim was going to use her but he also didn't have the heart to tell her just yet.
"Very well. Come along you both.
"Are you sure it's a good idea to leave Grim alone?"
Serenity asked while fiddling with her hair, looking up with unsure eyes. Crowley gave the star goddess a head pat.
"You worry too much for that cat, why is that?"
Serenity was silenced for just a moment, thinking to herself and asking the same question. Why was she caring for this strange black cat? it wasn't even a full 24 hours since they both met each other so why.....Crowley saw how rather conflicted Serenity had gotten when he asked the question so he decided to change the topic, and right on time since both of them entered a room filled with different decorated mirrors.
"Well, here we are, the Hall of Mirrors."
Serenity was in awe at what stood in front of her, each mirror had its own design to each of them. The colors for them range from bright vibrant reds and purples to muted blues and indigo. Some had rather a dark aesthetic with hints of a bright green others with metallic silver with flaming blue flames that reminded her of the Grim's flames. Each had its personality but for some reason, neither of them could overshadow each other, it reminded her of the stars she would look at every time she wondered about the garden back on the moon.
"We'll be able to meet at least three House Wardens today before classes start, I'll ask Crewel to introduce the rest to you later."
Serenity nodded but she started to feel rather shy now at the near thought of meeting new people, is she going to make a good impression on them or would they think lowly of her because she's not from the earth? She kept her cosmic eyes on the marble floor and she soon failed to notice the Headmaster reaching out for her hand to pull her into one of the mirrors. Looking up she saw the mirror she was entering, it had a frame that was sculpted with playing cards, and behind the frame were spears with spades as their blades. Above the mirror was a heart symbol with a gold crown and written within it was 'Heartslabyul'
"Welcome to Heartslabyul, based on the Queen of Hearts' spirit of strictness.' "
What was in front of Serenity was something street from one of the story books she would often read in the library Alexandra. A Royal Red place with white marble pillars took over her field of vision, it was whimsical almost fantastical. Decorated the outside of the cobble path were red rose bushes. Her breath was taken for sure, Crowley looked at her awed expression and smiled.
"This wouldn't be the only Dorm that looked this amazing. But let us hurry and greet Mister Roseheart."
Crowley held out his forearm so Serenity could grab onto it.
"Thank you, Headmaster Crowley."
He soon led her inside and just as she was amazed by the outside she was the same by the inside. Looking around she noticed that bright red roses and playing cards were greatly used as decoration inside. It was beautiful but for Serenity's taste, it was too much, too bright. But it did remind her of one of the old stories her mother would read to her from one of the books. It also involved a woman named The Queen of Hearts.
"Good Morning Headmaster, what can I do for you today?"
Serenity turned her head to the new voice. It was the same redhead she saw that placed the collar on Grim. The young man also noticed her as well.
"Well Mister Roseheart, I'm just introducing Miss Serenity to some of the Housewardens. Serenity this is Riddle Roseheart, the Housewarden of Heartslabyul. Roseheart this is Serenity, Night Raven's first ever female student."
Serenity held Crowley slightly closer, Riddle noticed this and took it upon himself to be the first one to do the greetings.
"It's wonderful to meet you once again Miss Serenity, if you ever need any help please don't hesitate to come to me or my vice Warden. All I ask is that you follow the rules."
Serenity took a slight pause, looking up to Crowley and back at Riddle. She let go of the Headmaster and gave the young man a graceful curtsy.
"It's....It's also wonderful to meet you."
Riddle now could understand the excitement many of his first years were showing when they first saw her. Last night he never really got a good look at her since her hair was blocking her face the majority of the time, but looking at her now was something else. Cute pouty lips, a button nose, and rosy cheeks were the features she had that gave Riddle's heart a run for his money but what got his attention fast were her cosmic eyes. They kept changing so he couldn't determine that she had one eye color. She was small, slightly smaller than Riddle even but for some reason that feature of her is what Riddle liked best, and not only that but her personality at first glance is that she's soft-spoken and polite. As a gentleman, it is his duty to give this young girl help if she ever needs it.
