"Wha- how!?" Roman exclaimed.

"I don't know. You have to ask the last person Virgil was with." Deceit shrugged and sat down next to Honesty. "Which would be Facade."

"Ugh, and where would we find him?" Roman asked.

"I saw him in the hallway flirting with False Confidence. He might still be there." Deceit intertwined his fingers with Honesty's.

"Okay, thanks for the info," Patton said.

"No problem..." Deceit muttered.

Virgil was the first one out of the room, followed by the others. He saw Facade talking to False out of the corner of his eye. He stopped and turned the corner.

"Facade! You better have a good reason for cursing my kitten." Roman said. Facade looked confused, then he looked down at Virgil.

"Pfft- hahaha!" He laughed. "Oh my gosh, Virgil, aren't you just adorable? Hahaha!"

"So it was you who cursed him?" Roman said.

"Or... it could've been one of my maids disguised as a dragonwitch." Facade crossed his arms.

"That's very specific," Logan said.

"Because I saw one of my maids turn into a dragonwitch."

"Oh... wait, and you didn't tell us!?" Roman exclaimed.

"You guys were gone when that happened. And when I was going to tell you... something distracted me." He looked at False. "Or someone."

"D-don't drag me into this," False said.

As they were chatting, Virgil saw something past them. A figure peeking around the corner. The weird thing was is that it was a girl.

'The only girls here are dragonwitches.' Virgil thought. 

So he took off running, ignoring the calls of everyone else. The figure ran away. Virgil didn't give up though. He turned the corner and saw the figure in clear view. Blonde hair, black cloak, red necklace. All dragonwitches have red necklaces.

Then the figure disappeared from sight. Virgil skidded to a halt and looked around. Her scent was still there, but she wasn't actually there.

'Where did she go!?' Virgil growled. Then he felt like he was picked up. He noticed that the others were right behind him.

"What happened, Virgil?" Roman asked, softly.

Virgil just mewed sadly.

"Whatever it was, it got him sad," Patton said.

"Mew..." Virgil said quietly.

He almost had her... but she disappeared before he got to her.
