All about Ace trappola🫶

~The Wonderous Wood Maid~

Here's an explanation cuz the title is confusing-

:In here, Ace is born as a dryad. If you don't know what they are, they are basically nymphs that live in trees. Now Ace being a nymph means that he has powers, right? Correct! And those powers are that he can summon a tree guardian when he is in need of help. However, all nymphs have no same powers. But of course, being the chaotic little nymph he was, he somehow got himself turned into a human- Well...a half human, for he still had dryad blood in him. Luckily for him, he still has his magic, though he couldn't quite understand what on earth is a UM and a signature spell...(What he didn't realize was that his ability already was his signature spell. He has more to be revealed~)And so, because of that, he thought he didn't have any. Anyways, let's go back to the present where the Heartslabyul dorm decided to try camping, "to bond" they said, yet here they are: lost in the middle of the woods with fire as their light source (they have their phones but they decided that it would be better to save it's battery so when they need it they could use it) and camping gear. Fortunately for them, the stars were out that night, which made things less dark. Also to add, another one of ace's abilities, that are present in all nymphs, are that he could find the lead star no matter where he was. And that could mean a way home!

Ace's pov

I wonder how we got into this situation...all we did was walk a little bit into the woods and boom! We got lost with no idea of getting out. Man...so much for a "fun night out"..! At least the stars are out..WAIT....THE STARS ARE OUT!! How could I be so stupid?! I didn't notice that until now! Welp, fortunately enough, I have found a way to, hopefully, get home.

No one's pov

"How could this even happen?!" Riddle yelled out. "Maybe we should call down, I'm sure we can find a way out and get back home.." Trey tried to reassure them, "Get back?? How can we get back if we don't know where NRC is.." Deuce mumbled out, hopeless.."Hey umm..does the spearhead (their version of the north star) lead towards NRC?" Ace asked, "I'm pretty sure it does, why?" Trey replied, "Well, let's just follow it so we can find our way home!" Ace exclaimed, "That...is one of the only brilliant ideas you've had so far Ace!" Riddle commented, "Hey!" "HAHAHAHAHAHAHHA" Everyone was laughing at this point. As deuce wiped the tears of laughter in his eyes, he told them "Let's go look for that star!" They all nodded in agreement. So they started to walk, slowly but surely they followed the spearhead (yes, I'm unoriginal, you don't have to tell me twice😭😭). However from time to time, they went in the wrong direction, in which Ace pointed out "The spearhead's over here, what are y'all doing there??" To which they responded with "And how would you know??" "It's common sense, plus you could see it. Duhhh" He replied. And their journey was like that, that was until Riddle saw how much easier and faster this all could be if Ace was in the lead..why? well, he seemed to know where the spearhead was at all times so he told Ace "Ace, could you go in front? You seem to see the spearhead quite well." "Oh! Sure" And when he came in front, might I say, they were all shocked at the speed he was going! He was basically gliding through the forest! However, there'll of course be a monster before they arrive back home. There just had to be some overblot looking monster that appeared out of nowhere to disrupt their journey. So they fought it, but it turned out to be quite stronger than they expected, so they used a lot of magic. Which we know isn't good, but they still did so. They knew they needed more back up so Ace summoned his tree guardian "Oh elder tree, Oh elder tree...May you be freed from your cage and help us in our need!" Ace shouted, in which tree guardian did appear, and it helped them with the monster. After the monster was gone, so was the guardian, since it's job was finished. "Ace, what the heck was that?!" Deuce questioned him, "Oh that? That was Larry! The tree guardian." Ace said so nonchalantly. "Oh my! #Whatasurprise!" Cater added. "And didn't you say you didn't have a UM?!' Deuce pointed out, "I don't? Wait do I..?" "Ace you are so dumb" "HEY! HOW WOULD I KNOW!? I WAS A DRYAD FOR MORE THAN HALF MY LIFE!!" Ace retaliated. "You were a DRYAD??!" Riddle asked, still quite shocked, "Yeah, is that so bad?" Ace was rather confused, "No, but you could have told us, you idiot!" Deuce yelled, "Well I'm sorry, I didn't know it was THAT important😒" Ace screamed, "Why you- OF COURSE ITS IMPORTANT, HOW WOULD ALL OF US KNOW??" Deuce yelled out once again, "Okay, enough with all the yelling, but I have to say deuce is right.." Trey said "Although it is quite annoying with all the yelling, you should have told us." Riddle added "... Cater-senpai?" "Awww, sorry acey but deuce is still right....#sorry!" Cater also agreed. Then silence began to swallow the atmosphere. Still quiet...that was until they realized it was getting late and they should be getting home now! But then, Ace was missing.."ACE!! WHERE ARE YOU!!" Deuce yelled, hoping to find the ginger-haired boy. They kept looking for him when Cater asked, "Hey, don't dryads normally live in trees? If so, Ace could be in one of them!" Everyone basically had wide eyes and started to knock at every tree, pissing off some other dryads that weren't Ace. That continued for a while until deuce found Ace in his dryad form, "Ace, are you ok?!" "Yup, just needed some rest" "ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! WE KEPT LOOKING FOR YOU" "Well, that and also because I heard a somewhat faint cry and found this little cutie" Ace reasoned while holding a baby dryad. "Ace. Where did you find that" "Right below this tree, and if you'll excuse me I'm adopting this child" "Ace, you yourself are also a child" "Doesn't stop me from taking care of this little angel" "Ughh, just follow me to the others." "Ok" And so they walked to the rest and explained what happened. They accepted what happened just so that there won't be more yelling and it also looks like Deuce already scolded Ace..And again with Ace in the front...Everything was going well until Ace gave Riddle a small little pot that had 2 tiny trees in it. "What's this for?" Riddle asked Ace, "Could you take care of it? That tree is my tree and the other is the baby's tree, so I need to take extra care of it so it won't die but since there's a little baby in my hands, could you carry it? I also put labels on which is mine and which is the baby's" "I will, but what for? why would you need to take care of this tree that badly?" "Well, it seems that not many people know..however when a dryad is born, a tree sprouts and when that tree dies, so does the dryad..Well, their body will still remain as long as the tree remains as well and that could mean there's still hope but that's a rare case" "Oh..I'll take extra care of it." "Really? Thanks!" And so it went on like that, until they arrived at NRC. A lot of people were worried but some were confused, like why does Ace have a baby all of a sudden?? Then they explained everything, which surprised them very much. And everything was going well until Ace started to look a bit ill, so Riddle checked the tree and it needed the things a tree needs so Riddle did all that and the next day Ace started to look better. But then, one faithful day, he saw that Ace's tree was missing..then he heard that Ace suddenly collapsed in the hallway, Riddle started to look for the tree to see that the tree was close to dying and Ace knew that so he told the first years with all of his might "Please take care of Cherry when I die, ok?" "DONT SAY THAT AS IF YOU WILL ACE!" Epel cried out. And just like that, Ace fell into deep sleep. The first years broke down in tears, wondering why life likes to make them sad. Then out of nowhere, Riddle shouted "HELP ME PLANT THIS TREE, PLEASE JUST TRUST ME!" As it turns out, he was the only one informed about the thing about dryads. Everyone looked at him weirdly, some glared at him ehem firstyears ehem but still helped. When the tree was planted into the ground, Riddle watered it and gave it some fertilizer hoping that it would help Ace. Riddle wasn't the religious kind but he prayed to whatever god there was to give Ace back and make things work. Fortunately, it worked and now Ace was there flapping his little wings outside and everyone became relieved, especially a couple of first years from different dorms. When Ace transformed back to his human form, the first years tackled him to the ground. And things were doing great after that, that tree was now to be protected and fenced from any sort of danger and things were a bit more peaceful from there on out.

That's all! Hope you guys liked this one, sorry if its a bit late but I've just been busy as graduation is coming up. So here is something I made as an apology for how late it is..
