"Everyone, get down!" The redhead yelled before ducking down himself. You quickly threw yourself away from the mirror before you got burned yourself. Blue flames reflected onto the mirror, but elegantly cascaded off, the mirror perfectly unharmed. Just no longer showing the mask.

The little gray cat continued to deviously smirk as he threw out more and more blue bursts of flames. The people closest to him had the hardest time dodging the flames, moving left to right, some even getting their robes burnt. The people closer to the back simply stood there with judging looks.

Two of those people happened to be the pretty blonde and annoyed lion. The lion yawned. "Ugh. Can I go now, or...?" The handsome boy put a hand to his chin while glancing over. "Oh? I thought you fancied yourself a hunter. Go and help yourself to that plump little morsel!" If your life wasn't in danger, you would have laughed.

The lion resorted with, "Too much effort. Do it yourself."

"AHHHH! HELP! I'm on fire over here!" Your head shot up at the high-pitched, worried voice. The cute white haired boy with red eyes. The ends of his long robes were now fluttering with blue flames. You ran over to him. "Hold still!" You yelled worryingly as you grabbed large handfuls of your own robes before stomping down on the boy's robe.

It was an almost comical sight. A worried boy trying to get his leg away from the closing in flames while a crazed looking girl furiously stomped on his robes as fire blasted around them.

Eventually, once the flames went out, you let out a relived sigh and looked up to give him a slight smile only to fine him already doing that exact thing. Again, if your life wasn't in danger, you would have blushed at such a wonderful sight. "Thank you so m-"

Unfortunately he wasn't able to finish as another large blast of blue flames came right in between you two. Both you and the boy threw yourselves back, both landing on your behinds.

Amongst the chaos, the boy with light gray hair stepped forward. "Allow me to handle this, Headmage Crowley. If none of you are up to the task of catching a small animal, I will accept the responsibility." He said with a smirk as he grabbed something from his robe. It was like a pen with a whitish jewel at the end.

The tablet still floating around spoke up. "WTG Azul. Rackin' up those participation credits." He said dully. Feeling some sort of obligation to Grim, despite only knowing him for the last few minutes and during that time he tried to burn you alive, you threw yourself right into the center of chaos near the glasses wearing boy.

The white haired boy who was still on the ground reached his hand out to you. "Wait!" He called, but you were already gone.

Crowley put his hands on his hips and glared towards the students on the side. "I'm sorry, were my instructions unclear?!" He yelled despite not doing anything himself to control the situation. The lion boy grunted and rolled his eyes. "Preeetty sure you can handle catching one mangy weasel all on your lonesome there, headmage."

Still, why was the one girl without magic doing more than the guys who allegedly did have it?

Grim glared. "How many times do I gotta say it? I'm Grim, spellcaster extraordinaire! I am NOT a weasel!" You blew some hair out of your face/let out a huff of air.

The kid with glasses who the tablet called Azul chuckled. "Aren't you a spunky little fellow? Riddle, would you be so kind...?" The redhead with gray eyes stepped forwards. So his name was Riddle. It was certainly strange, but you couldn't say you didn't not like it.

"Furry miscreant. I will abide no rule-breaking. You will be judged by my hand." He yelled holding out the same funny looking pen, but this time with a red jewel.
