Once in a Blue Moon [Disney Twisted Wonderland OC]

Pursuit of a Shadow

This chapter will cover the finale episode but not the character interactions, which will be saved for one more Savanaclaw chapter. This chapter will look rushed and for that, please forgive me again. It's a lot of work as both an artist and a writer. 😣

Strix wouldn't wake up. Neither did Leona, who was freed from the blot that once took control of him.

Jack had feared Strix may have been struck by something to knock her out. Could she have fainted from the mass of negative energy? She is a non-magic user...

A sigh barely leaves Cater as he took in the familiar sight of the girl's sleeping face. "This again?"

"What do you mean 'again'?" Jack asked.

"She went out like a light when the same thing happened to Riddle-kun."

Said redhead looks to Cater, surprised. He didn't learn about this until now.

The headmaster swoops into the coliseum. He was relieved to see the rampage has been put to an end. However...

"My goodness, Noctowl-kun is at it again?"

Jack sweatdropped. Is sleeping under the sun part of the norm for the human?

Aura Lion appears, surprising Crowley with yet another new specie of Dream Eater Spirits. He pads over to the unconscious Leona and released a soft breath on his face (like Aslan-style from Narnia). Leona's contorted expression softens. Then the Spirit disappeared.

Afterwards, Strix regained consciousness. She recognized the sight of faces hovering over her and gets up to her feet. Her legs stagger like a newborn struggling to stand and was caught by someone's arm looped around her stomach.

"You okay?" Asked Jack.

"Yeah. Just had a bit too much adrenaline going on..." Muttered the girl.

Meanwhile Grim runs over to call out to the brunet man. "Hey! Wake up!!"

Leona stirs. He blearily awoke to see Grim peering over him.

"You're finally awake! We weren't sure what to do if you stayed passed out like that!" Grim placed his paws on his hips. "Now then, go ahead and confess that all of the accidents were part of your plan."

"What... Come again?" Leona sat up and cradled his head. He was still disoriented from leaving his Overblot state.

Crowley approached the dorm leader. "Kingscholar-kun. You fell into an Overblot rampage due to being consumed by blot and negative energy. Do you not remember?"

Leona spoke in disbelief, "I went on a rampage... Overblot? You're kidding..."

"More importantly, the Magical Shift Tournament is about to begin. If you don't confess we can't get our prize and play in the tournament!" Grim told him.

"Huh...? What're you talking about?"

"They went after you in order to get permission from the headmaster to play in the Magical Shift Tournament." Jack answered.

"Eh? You did it for something like that?" Ruggie blurts out, only to flinch at Grim and Strix who swerved immediately to him.

"'Something like that'?! You went around injuring people for 'something like that'." Grim called out, Strix nodding firmly.

The hyena held his tongue. "Ugh, th-that's... right, I guess."

"Then it's safe to assume that the series of accidents around campus were all your dorm's doing?" Crowley asked Savanaclaw's dorm leader.
