(^Dream Scene above since I never got around to writing it out)

***Ramshakle Dorm - Yuu and Grim's Room***

Michael POV:

"She should have been stopped...." I hear Yuu mumble before waking and yawning. "What was that about?" I ask. "Hm?.....Oh I've been having dreams about the Queen of Hearts..." Yuu replies tiredly after yawning. "I see, it's not that surprising considering whats going on right now." I say while Yuu gets up and changes. "Hey, Yuu! Ah, good, you're already up." Grim says while walking into the room. "Today's the big duel! Let's DO this thing." Ace says from the door. "I can just see how terribly this will end, midgets have too much anger...." I mumble. "Like you eggs?'" I hear Ennard ask in my head. "Gah- right, you, and no, I'm the average height for a 26 year old." I reply. "Your in your 50s or sixties Eggs." Ennard says bluntly. "No need to remind me. And my body stopped growing after you murdered me." I snap back. "Mike? You alright?" Yuu asks skeptically. "Huh? Yeah I'm fine, just had a bit of an unwanted reality check. Let's go." I reply.

***Heartslabyul Dorm - Rose Maze***

C.C. POV:

"Did you hear? They say someone's challenged Housewarden Rosehearts to a duel!" I hear a student whisper. "Riddle Rosehearts? Seriously?! Whoever it is has gotta be outta his mind. Riddle will have his head off in five seconds flat." I hear someone else whisper. "Still, it's the first challenge since Rosehearts took power. I'm pumped!" a third student chimes in. "You're saying Ace and Deuce are challenging Riddle for the housewarden's seat?! Please tell me you're kidding." Cater says as I approch the group. "I tried to stop 'em." Trey says. "Really guys? I just got him to calm down and you want to fight him?" I ask. "Crowley gave them the idea." Mikey replies. "Of all the stupid ideas... I just hope this doesn't make everything worse." Cater says. "You and me both." Trey adds.

"We are about to commence two challenges for the housewarden position at Heartslabyul House. The first challenger is Ace Trappola. The second challenger is Deuce Spade. The current housewarden they have challenged is Riddle Rosehearts. Now, in accordance with the duel rules, please remove the magic-sealing collars as they would provide an unfair disadvantage." Mama states. "Ah! FINALLY, the dumb collar is off!" Ace says after Riddle takes the collar off. "Enjoy your moment of freedom. The collar will be back on soon enough. I could hardly believe it when I heard you two intended to duel me. Is this a joke?" Riddle asks coldly. I sigh and walk away to regroup with my nightmares.

***Heartslabyul Dorm***

I sit in the grass with my Nightmares in front of me. "What did you guys find through the school and dorms?" I ask. "Everything was fine in Heartslabyul and every other dorm, although the students.....Jamil Viper and Azul Ashengrotto bring some suspicion." Nightmare replies. "Alright, send the freddles to watch them, they're smaller and less likely to get caught, if they behave." I say. "Alright, also that man, Mikey, he has one of us too, not a nightmare animatronic, but an animatronic." Nightmarrionette says. "Oh? Okay then, I guess you guys can keep tabs on him too, although I'm pretty sure Fredbear has been doing that anyways." I comment. I hear a sound and then spells being casted and sigh. "Thats my cue to watch this disater, good job nightmares." I say before going back to the others.

***Heartslabyul Dorm - Rose Maze***

I walk back in to see Ace and Deuce fighting Riddle together at once and I sit at Mama and Bubba's feet as they watch. I watch as the fight ends in only minutes. "I have a bad feeling..." I mumble.

***Mutilated Mindscrolls***

Cassidy POV:

An unsettling feeling has washed over the pizzeria. No one can find C.C. Everyone is worried, and Charlie and Eli cried when they found out we couldn't find him anywhere. "Does Eli even know C.C.?" I ask Suzie. "According to her, he's her big brother." Suzie replies. "Huh, C.C. never mentioned that, but he did die with a brain injury, he must not have rembered her." I state. Eli and C.C. look nothing alike, not by hair, not by eye color. "Is it just me, or is something bad going to happen?" I ask. "It might just be you, but since you and C.C. share the main body source, it could mean that C.C. is feeling bad or something bad will happen to him." Jeremy says.
