"Whoa, hold up! Is that one of your rules too?!" Ace yelled out in anger

"Yeah! If you want the tart gone, let me eat it!" Grim called out with an irk mark on his forehead

"Housewarden, allow me to apologize. I was the one who suggested making a chestnut tart." Trey tried to diffuse the situation while y/n looked plain confused on what was happening

"I was a part of that too. We had no idea there was a rule about it!" Carter waved his hands in a defensive motion

"What's happening?" Y/n muttered to Grim who looked up at her in confusion

"Riddle is about to throw our tart away" Grim hissed back

"And I worked so hard on that tart" y/n sighed out with a face of longing.

Hearing the sentence y/n had said, riddle paused mid sentence before changing what he was going to say.

"The making of the tart is not the issue... J won't throw it out..(y/n tried so hard on it for me..) The issue is bringing it HERE. Today. THAT is the transgression!

"How can you be so mean after he worked so hard?" Deuce called out

"Yeah! All you do is cite one stupid rule after another! You sound totally foolish!" Ace yelled

"What did you just call me? "Foolish"?!" Riddle growled out

"Everyone, stop! Don't dig this hole any deeper!
And Riddle, please try to remember that these are new students who've only been here a few days!" Carter pleaded

"Nah, bro. I've got a shovel and I am DIGGING. Throwing away a tart to obey some insane rule is about as foolish as it gets." Ace argued

"I agree with Ace. Of course, I understand that rules do need to be followed, but...
This is going much too far." Deuce agree

"Are you attempting to debate me? Bold move. But I'll bite. By breaking even the smallest rule, you are throwing wide the gate to anarchy." Riddle hissed at them

"Everyone, I know you're afraid of getting your magic sealed away, but you know this is insane, right?" Ace turned to the crowd of students who had all turned away, trying not to make eye contact with ace.

Heartslabyul Student A: N-no, we, uh..

"Well? Isn't it?" Riddle asked impatiently

Heartslabyul Student A: Far from it, Housewarden Riddle, sir!

Heartslabyul Student B: We trust in your judgment, sir!

"You little..." Grim hissed out

"You spineless, fair-weather cowards..." Ace growled out in betrayal

"In the year since I became housewarden, not a single student from Heartslabyul House has dropped out or been held back a year.
We are the only house that can boast such a feat. Furthermore, of everyone in this dorm, I have the best academic standing.
Hence, I am the most correct! If you would simply obey me without question, we wouldn't need to contend so." Riddle boasted

"Listen, we-!" Deuce tried to cool down the situation

"It's not off with their heads because I want to do that. I do it because rules must never be broken." Riddle spoke with an emotionless face.

" ......" Trey watched the entire ordeal completely speechless

" If you will not obey me, then I will have all of your heads!" Riddle yelled out, throwing his hand to the side in a slicing motion

"Okay, let's all say, "Yes, Housewarden Riddle."" Carter eased, a worried grin oh his face

" ... I can't." Deuce refused

"Um um um um! ME TOO!" Y/n yelled out, still having no clue on what was going on and just agreeing with Deuce

" I don't bow to self-important tyrants!" Ace spoke, giving y/n a smile

"What did you just call me?"

"He called you a tyrant for wantin' to destroy good food just 'cause you're throwin' a tantrum!" Grim yelled, a grin on his furry face

"Guys, I don't think we need to escalate this-" deuce spoke worriedly before he was cut off

"Off! With! Your! Heads!" Riddle yelled out as collars clamped around all their necks.

Y/n looked down weirdly at her collar before moving her neck around uncomfortably.

"...my hair is stuck in this necklace.." she spoke out with no emotions whatsoever showing on her face.

"Bwaaaaaaah!"
The same couldn't be said for Deuce and Hrim who yelled out in horror.

"No! Not the collar again!" Grim yelled out dramatically

" Gah! I can't get it off!" Deuce tried to rip it off

"Trey! Cater! Eject them from the premises!" Riddle yelled out before looking at y/n with a guilty expression.

'No riddle! She betrayed you!' Riddle thought to himself as he remembered how y/n agreed to calling him foolish

"... Yes sir, Housewarden." Trey and Carter mumbled out

"Y-you're supposed to be our "mentors"!"'deuce yelled out, backing away from his seniors

"Sorry, but we can't disobey our housewarden!"
Carter spoke with a completely unsorry smile

"Sorry, man..." Trey apologised as well

"Oh, that's how it's gonna be? Then bring it on!" Ace yelled out.

"......" Trey stayed silent as he reduced himself.

"GO Y/N!!" Ace yelled out, throwing the pot he had confiscated from her, at her.

Y/n smiled happily at the familiar object, giving the seniors a chilling smile.





——-time skip brought to you by y/n beating her seniors up with a pot———

Heartslabyul Dorm- tea garden




"Hmph. Now, let's get this party back on track.
After all, we still need to have the croquet tournament.
And now we're fifteen minutes behind schedule! This is outrageous!" Riddle growled out, looking at his watch

"Yes sir, Housewarden Riddle."
Trey sighed out

"Are you really okay with this, Trey?" Carter asked, tilting his head in confusion

" What do you expect me to do about it?" Trey asked annoyed.

Trey had gotten a bruise to his leg and stomach from where y/n had whacked him and Carter had gotten a huge bruise to the thighs and a bruise to his arms.
