//Episode 12: The Lion and Little Mouse and It's off with their heads!//
<Angy Finn coming right up and guess who triggered it..you will find in this chapter>
Finn then felt on what seems to be a tail on wrapping itself on her arm.
"Huh?..."
Finn thought as she stares at the tail still wrapped around her arm. Suddenly without a blink of an eye the male pulled her close to his chest.
"..."
Finn couldn't even process on what just happen and she looked up to see the male looking at her.
"Um.....hello..."
Finn said with her soft voice as he tired eyes stared at his emerald ones.
"..."
"Can you...let me go please..."
Finn asked...with all her might but then stop as her eyes widened. And looked at the male once more as she 'shouted'?
"Your the one who kneeled at me at the ceremony!"
Finn said, the male could only groaned as he gets up.
"Geez, for a second I thought you were those types of people who are quiet all the time...yet you are actually pretty noisy."
The Male said as his ears twitch. Finn then stands up and points at him with one hand on her hips
"I remember now. You're the Dorm head of Savanaclaw, Leona Kingscholar! The Second Prince of Afterglow Savana!"
Finn said to Leona could only chuckle at her actions.
"For someone who is rumored to be mute around the school and doesn't show emotions..your actually loud and annoying ya know. But still..why bring out the second prince though...what ever...I will let it pass.."
Leona said as he muttered on the last sentence. Leona fixes his sitting position as he looks at her.
"I'm uh..um.."
Finn realizing what she just did and looked away with her arms crossed.
"Now your embarrassed....how cute.."
Leona said as he pulls her arm lightly as and back hugs her. Leona then rest his chin on her head which made the girl flinch and panic.
"Let me go...I beg of you."
Finn said as she tries to get out of his embrace.
"Not going to...you disturbed my sleep...so consider this as your punishment-" <Leona>
"When did I ever disturbed your sleep huh!?"
Leona then looked at Finn , why you ask...well...her voice changed. It wasn't that soft and tired tone but..it was loud and clear.
He shrugged it off as he tighten the hug. Finn soon stopped struggling as she brings both legs near her chest and head low. Leona looked at her and asked,
"I just noticed your outfit...attending a party at Heartslabyul?"
<Leona>
"Apparently not anymore..I ran away..." <Finn>
"Because?" <Leona>
"Why do you wanna know?"
Finn asked as she stared at him with her tired eyes.
"Well? By the looks on your eyes. You cried-" <Leona>
"Shut up.."
Finn said as she reverts her head low once more.
"I ran out of the dorm before I even witnessed the Unbirthday party to start... because of a simple critisim that I took whole heartedly ...now I guess he would see me as a 'little girl who is always sick and weak' ..just like how his mom describes me..."
Finn said sadly remembering the time Ms.Rosehearts said that to her. Finn heard her say that when she visited feW years ago.
"Well, I don't know what to say...so all I could say that...your not actually weak And to think someone would call you that though..how rude of them to say that to this Little Mouse~"
Leona said casually and began pinching or squishing the girls cheeks gently as Finn doesn't even mind it but looks up to him and said this.
"Was that..supposed to make me better?...well tell you what ..it didn't.."
<Finn>
"Why do you act like your copying someone.." <Leona>
"That doesn't matter...but what you said..what do you mean by that?"
<Finn>
"Well...you look like your weak but you got some magic that could make anyone bow down to your order."
<Leona>
"Wait...how did you-" <Finn>
"Your Unique Magic...I just guessed it on the spot..so it was you who controlled that raccoon in the ceremony..." <Leona>
"...I have no comment to that..."
Finn said sheeplishly she looks away with a pout on her face. Leona could only laugh at her,
"Not judging you but... I didn't think that you would be attending this college. For starters..your the youngest among all students here."
"Says the 20 year old who is still in college."
Leona looked at her and growled as he tightens the hug squishing the girl.
"Knock it off..will you...I'm wearing a corset..." <Finn>
"Who told you that?" <Leona>
"Oji tan." <Finn>
"Very funny...yet the way she said Oji tan...is kinda cute.." <Leona>
"Did you say something.." <Finn>
"Nothing for you to know..Little mouse." <Leona>
"Your lying.." <Finn>
"Hm.. Really now?" <Leona>
"I can tell..whether one is..lying..ya know..and you are clearly..lying ."
<Finn>
"Is that so...well then..we might get along..." <Leona>
"Pardon?"
Finn questioned as she looked at Him and tilts her head. Leona could only laugh at the girl and Finn could only pout.
The Exchange of words between the two continued until Ruggie showed up to fetch the lion. As the hyena walked towards the direction of where he thinks Leona would be napping to his surprise, he saw a sight which he couldn't believe.
Leona had his head rested on Finn's legs as the two were talking. Ruggie then pulled out his phone and took a shot or two, cause you never know when you would need it.
He then approached them as he joined the conversation.
"Hello~ what are you two doing~~"
He said cheekily. Leona could only groaned and hugs Finn's waist in annoyance. Finn waves at Ruggie,
"I came to get Leona San, Finnian chan, would you kindly let him off your lap?"
Ruggie asked the girl as she stared at him for a brief moment and looked down at Leona. As she hand sighed her response to ruggie.
"Give me a moment."
And with that left the poor hyena confused but soon got his answer when Finn took out her magic pen and casted her unique magic on Leona making him stand up suddenly, Ruggie then looked over to Finn with wide eyes.
"W-woah..." <Ruggie>
"Oi! What do you think your doing!?"
<Leona>
"Just doing what I was said to do. Getting you off my lap."
Finn hand signed her answer as she covers her mouth while doing so, containing the laughter she wished to let out.
"Well it isn't funny now huh?" <Leona>
"Hahahaha! Leona San got owned by someone smaller than him- woah!"
Ruggie then was nearly hurted by a wheelbarrow, As he sweat dropped while looking at Finn who looked at him with a straight face as she emits a dark aura around her after being called small.
"I-i take that back..."
Ruggie said stuttering as he looked at the wheelbarrow that nearly hurted him. Finn then releases Leona from her Unique Magic and also bowed at Ruggie as a apology.
<Yeah never mess with Finn cause she can make something fly at you with a flick of a magic pen because of her unique magic. >

Sooner or later Leona, Finn and Ruggie left the botanical gardens together cause the three were apparently going to the Hall of Mirrors.
"Well see you later Little mouse.."
Leona said ruffling the top oh her hair as he walks towards Ruggie and the two Savanaclaw members are gone. Who was left in the hall of mirrors went her way to Heartslabyul's Mirror and enters.
Back to the Dorm of the Crimson Tyrant. Finn began to find where the Unbirthday venue was and when she found it the thing she heard was..
"HOW DARE YOU BRING A MARON TART AT AN UNBIRTHDAY PARTY! IT'S OFF WITH YOUR HEADS!"
And thus she heard a clicking noise which sounded like a lock. Finn hid behind a bush in the maze as she covers her mouth.
"Who..got their heads off?... don't tell it's.."
She then peeked again to her shocking discovery, the One's who got their heads off were: Ace, Deuce and Grim. The three and Yuu were being escorted or dragged out of the Unbirthday Part Venue and Finn made a move to hide even further into the Rose Maze..or more like finding a way out.
"I can't believe it....its just a single tart...what rule is there...to be...followed..Rosehearts ..senpai...what did your...mother..no..what did auntie..do to you..."
She thought as she finally found them. Ace was throwing a little fit and Deuce trying to calm him down. Yuu then notices someone running towards their direction in the corner of his eye, He turned to see Finn.
"Finn! There you are.. I was worried!"
Yuu said as Finn could only Hug him once she reached him. Finn looked at to Yuu and showed a little smile, the latter then turned her heads towards the two Heartslabyul first years and gave them also a hug. Which surprised them,
"O-oh..hey Finn." <Ace>
"Oh um..t-thanks." <Deuce>
The two boys said as they looked away sheepishlya and bother were blushing because of the sudden hug from the latter. She then approached Grim and patted his head.
"May..I asked..what happened...in there?"
Finn asked while not looking at them as he attention went to grim who purred when Finn scratches a part on his face. Making the two Heartslabyul Boys jealous and one boy looking at her in adoration..so Ace answered her question with a hint of annoyance laced to it.
"There's a damn rule about no bringing a specifics type of tart on a Unbirthday party..can't you believe it..Riddle is a damn Tyrant." <Ace>
"Is..that so.." <Finn>
"Even Clover senpai was shock about there being more to the rules." <Deuce>
"I even got myself with this collar..I didn't even do anything!"
Grim complained. Just then Yuu gave out a deep sigh.
"There must be another way..on getting your collars out of your neck..but how.."
Yuu said, not long after they all heard a cheeky laugh...which was so familiar to...
"Wait... don't tell me it's.."
"Ah~ Finnya chan~ long time no see nya~"

<Bonus Segment>
"If your saying is true...then when she talked to you earlier just now...was her real her?" <Ruggie>
"I don't know..but what she explained to me...was.." <Leona>
"I have decided..that..I would start talking more a little..cause...people would misunderstood me as a cold hearted person."
Finn said as she strokes his hair, Leona responded.
"Is that why...but why didn't you talk to any of us in the ceremony a few days ago? And why panic also." <Leona>
"It's a something...I wouldn't want to trigger 'that' memory..." <Finn>
"I'm short..you didn't understand."
Ruggie said while looking at the Lion who was laying on his bed.
"Apparently yeah." <Leona>
"But her Unique Magic is similar to mine but...is much more stronger..in how you described it." <Ruggie>
"Did you just forgot she sent a wheelbarrow flying toward you..only a few people would have that kind of ability. Apparently she hitted the jackpot on not only she can control people but bring objects to life as well and would send items flying to people."
Leona said with a smirk while looking at him.
"Haha..very Funny but...make objects come to life?" <Ruggie>
"Let's just say...I saw her use it today to bring a blanket for us to sit or lay on." <Leona>
"Of course she would do that."
Ruggie said with a sweat drop..
"Leona San..we have practice for Magical Shift and what are your plans for the magicshift tournament."
"Well..we will do this.."
And thus the two began planning their scheme on the Magical Shift Tournament....
