Into the World of Twisted Wonderland Pt 2

✨Side Story 22: Respect✨

"So far, Azul wants to make sure that the lounge is in tip-top shape, that nothing goes wrong," Angel states. "So, what if we caused a little trouble for him?"

"Trouble?" Ruggie asks. "What kind of trouble?"

Angel smirks. "The trouble that only the students of Savanaclaw could cause."

"So, what I'm hearin' is, you want to use my students to cause a distraction?" Leona states.

"Of course!" Angel proudly answers. "I'm sure you know why."

Ruggie thinks for a moment. "Knowin' our students, they would fight at the simplest of reasons."

"With that, those brainless fish at Octavinelle wouldn't know how to handle it without that cephalo-punk's help," Leona finishes.

"That's gonna be our distraction," Grim states. "More than likely, Azul's gonna be tucked away in the VIP room, and this gonna get him out!"

"But wait a second," Ruggie says. "It would be impossible to cause a distraction with the Leech Brothers around. They'd shut it down in an instant."

"Not if they're not there," Angel speaks. "They're goal is to prevent ME from getting the photo, so they'll be busy trying to keep an eye on me from getting the photo, too busy to worry about the lounge. While they're gone, you just have to steal the key for the vault from Azul and take the contracts while he's away."

"Azul would wanna figure out what the noise is himself so it'll be perfect to get him when he least expect it," Grim says to Ruggie.

Ruggie thinks about the plan for a moment. "Okay, I see where ya goin' with this plan, but what about the contracts? It's not like we can get far with them. He's gonna notice sooner or later something's off."

"That's where Leona comes in," Angel says, looking at Leona laying on the bed, seeing that his gaze was on her, interested in her next words. "We don't need to go far with the contracts, just enough distance where Azul wouldn't have much control over them. Once we reach that distance, Leona will sand them with his signature spell."

Ruggie looks at Leona is disbelief at the plan so far, shocked at the smirk he sees on his face as he listened to the plan. "Ya goin' to use me to destroy the contracts once and for all, huh rabbit?"

"Leona's signature spell is the only thing that could destroy all 226 contracts in one go," she explains. "It would be too much of a hassle to try and find the specific contract we need one by one, plus Azul would figure it out before we even find it."

"You want me to steal 226 contracts?!" Ruggie exclaims in shock at the amount.

"Not 226, per se..." Angel says as she thinks about it. "Just all the contracts in his vault." Ruggie eyes widen at the thought. "You could do that, right?" She smiles at him.

Leona chuckles. "She got ya by the tail there, Ruggie." Ruggie only sighs at the amount, mumbling how it's too much work, but could only do it. "So, rabbit," Leona says as he looks at Angel. "How far you want the contracts to be? Obviously, it's a no in the VIP room."

Angel thinks for a moment. "We don't need to go too far, just enough where Azul wouldn't have much control over it, so...maybe a little bit outside the dorm itself."

"Huh?" Grim looks at her curiously. "Why that far? We could do it in the lounge."

"I see where ya goin' with it," Leona speaks up, getting everyone's attention. "You don't know how far his reach is. Like you guys said, he was able to put a spell on the scroll when he was outside the VIP room. Based on when you guys fought him before, you don't know if his reach could go throughout the dorm as well. It's an herbivore move to have an escape route, and getting it outside the dorm itself is the escape route, am I right?"
