Ruggie ran towards Leona, huffing for air." *Pant*... *Pant*... Leona, I did it! Did you see the broadcast?"." Yeah. That was nice work, Ruggie. So long, Malleus. This year, the throne is mine," Leona smirked in pride, as the whole Savanaclaw dorm applause.

" Long live the king! Hooray!"

" I believe we've heard enough," Riddle step in, causing Leona and Ruggie startled in surprised. " Well, well, if it isn't the Heartslabyul kids. And is that Jack?You transfer to Heartslabyul on us, frosh?" Leona mocked.

Jack crossed his arms, stand in his ground" Nah. I just don't feel like celebrating the underhanded accomplishments of a bunch of cowards,"." You filthy traitor!" Leona roared.

" You have tarnished a proud Night Raven tradition. As housewarden of Heartslabyul, a dorm focused on orderliness, I cannot possibly overlook this," Riddle spoke, taking out his wand.

Leona scoffed " Listen, kiddies-save your heroic speeches for someone who cares, all right?"." Honestly, coming into our territory with only a handful of people... It's like you WANT a beating," Ruggie smirked.

" You want us to take care of 'em, Boss?" (Savanaclaw Student)

" Sure. Have a little fun with 'em," (Leona)

~~~~~~~~~~~

As expected, they're no match for the housewarden....

Riddle take the opportunity and place his spells " Off With Your Heads!". All the students were collared, unable to cast even a spell.

Savanaclaw Student: Urk... He's so strong.
Savanaclaw Student: Man, housewardens are no joke.

" Hmph. Nothing but a lot of hot air. Ace, Deuce, are you all right?" Riddle spoke to the duo. Deuce and Ace nod. " Yeah. That was nothin'(A),"." You bet, sir!(D)"

Leona scoffed " Tch. I knew those chumps'd be no match for Riddle,"." Shyeheehee! Maybe not! But this doesn't change the fact that they were too late to save Diasomnia," Ruggie chuckled.

" Oh? That's quite the interesting claim"

It's the Diasomnia dorm student! Sebek nod with Lilia's word " They seemed right on time to me,"." Indeed. It's thanks to them that not a single one of Diasomnia House's players got hurt," Silver replied.

" What? How?! I saw you get swallowed up by the stampede!" Ruggie stunned, eyes widen. Their plan didn't work!? But Azul's potion was supposed to work as they wanted! Then Cater walked in.

" Oh! About that...So it turns out those were actually duplicates of me, made with my signature Split Card spell,"." What?" Leona growled . Cater show a cheeky smile " I must admit, I really dig those Diasomnia House outfits. They're so extra! I'll DM you some of my selfies later,"

Lilia chuckled" Is that right? If I knew you were such a fan, I'd have gladly loaned you mine,"." Such a sweetheart! Though I think yours would be a little small for me,". Cater spoke.

" All right, can we get to the point?" (Leona)

" Riddle told us everything. So we had him put on that little charade for us," (Lilia)

Ruggie stutter" So, then... Malleus?"." Oh, he's in top-top shape, of course! He's been clearing up the chaos, using his magic to guide all the people safely back to the coliseum. You can thank him later," Sebek spoke proudly.

" H-how could this happen?!" Ruggie grow horror that their plan failed....then...

" ...Tch. Whatever. I don't even care anymore," (Leona)

"What?" (Ruggie)

Leona scowled" I'm done. It's over,"." Boss, what are you saying?!" Ruggie grabbed Leona's sleeve, but was pushed away. " Are you even payin' attention? If Malleus is able to take the field then we got no chance of winning. There's no point even trying. I'm out,".

" Y-you can't just...!Malleus might still be in the game, but we took out all the other dorms' best players, right? But without you on the field, I don't even know if we'd have a shot at the top three! You're just going to abandon our dreams?" Ruggie try to convince Leona, but it's as if word went into right eats and exit on the left.

He laughed sarcastically " For all the talk about "the world watching," this is still just schoolkids playin' a game.
All you wide-eyed tenderfoots talkin' about your dreams... Pfft. The whole thing amused me, so I threw you a bone. That's all this was,"." What do you mean? What happened to working together to "turn the world upside down"?" Ruggie spoke, annoyed.

" Are you seriously still goin' on about that? All right, fine. You wanna hear the truth? You're a hyena who grew up in a dump, and I'm a secondborn prince who won't ever be king. And there is NO turning that around!" (Leona)

" What? You gotta be kidding me! What is this? You can't just quit after we've come this far!" (Ruggie)

Savanaclaw Student: You can't do this to us, Boss!

Savanaclaw Student: You're gonna play, even if we gotta drag you out there kicking and screaming!

Leona grows irritated, growled " Bah, I'm so sick of this nonsense. Shut UP, you nobodies!" Something happens, as all the Savanaclaw student fall down, in pain.

" Aaagh...," Ruggie suffocated, so too other students. Grim yelled, covered his nose " What?! My nose is dryin' out... M-my eyes hurt!"." Everything the housewarden touched is turning to sand?!" Jack yelled.

Leona laughed " That'd be my signature spell. "The King's Roar." Ironic, isn't it? Nothin' the savanna hates more than a drought. Yet its prince's magic desiccates everything-reduces it to sand,"." B-boss... It huuurts...!" Ruggie yelled in pain.

" Ruggie's arm! The skin is cracking!" (Deuce)

" Your spell can legit dry out a HUMAN BEING?!" (Ace)

Riddle pointed his pen " Leona, I cannot allow this to continue! Off With Your Head!". The spell didn't work, infact it bounces Riddle's collared. Grim shocked " Myah?! Riddle's collar bounced right off!".

" Maybe you're some kinda prodigy, kid, but don't go thinkin' you're smarter than your elders. I aced my Protective Magic classes in my sleep," Leona spoke. Riddle clicked his tongue" Tch!".

Leona laughed " Hah! How do you like that, Ruggie? Does it hurt? Is your mouth too dry to keep licking my boots? That was your finest talent, too,"." Ngh... G-gaah...," Ruggie gripped his arms, that almost cracked to dust.

" If we don't stop him, Ruggie's gonna...!" (Jack)

"Let's fight him, motherfucker!!"

"AND WHY THE HELL YOU'RE WEARING FACE SHIELD!?!!" (Ace)

"SHUT UP BITCH, IT'S FUCKING COVID AND SHIT!"
