Ok, my gals and bois [if there's any]! The one you've been waiting for~! HAHAHHAAHAHAHHAHAH! Get ready and buckle up 'cause you're gonna kick Leona's butt!!!!
~ 3rd Person's Perspective ~
'Aries, now...' (Name) ordered as Ruggie entered Savanaclaw once again.
'Yes, Mistress!' Aries responded as she cast her wool magic to the manipulated people.
With a signal for Ace, Aries, and Happy to come back in Savanaclaw, she cut the telepathy line and watched as Ruggie run to Leona...
"I did it, Leona-san...!" Ruggie exclaimed as he panted. "Did you see it on the broadcast?" He asked.
"Yeah, you did great, Ruggie." Leona congratulated. "Farewell, Malleus. I'll be taking the throne this year."
"Hehe! Long live the King!" Ruggie praised with a chuckle.
"Long live the King!! Whoo~!!" The Minions of Leona exclaimed.
"I feel like we've heard enough." Riddle and (Name) announced in unison, getting out of their hiding spots.
Ruggie and Leona widened their eyes as they saw 2 Prefects infront of them. Deuce and Pantherlily immediately got to to Riddle and (Name)'s side...
"Oh? What's everyone from Heartslabyul and Ramshackle doing here?" Leona asked with a frown, then his eyes trailed behind (Name). "I see you've got our 1st year with you, too. Did you transfer to Heartslabyul, huh?" Leona asked Jack.
"I just don't want to stand by your side today!" Jack retorted.
"You traitor!" Leona barked.
"An act that ruins tradition." Riddle crossed his arms. "As Heartslabyul's Prefect whose motto is "severity," I cannot let this act slide."
Leona scrunched his face, "Hey, little master. Can you play your heroes of justice game over there?"
"We're not kids!" Carla bellowed, trying to struggle from (Name)'s firm grip.
"Are you all drunk or something? Coming all the way here with your friends just to spy on the enemy?" Ruggie mocked.
"Eh~? Really~?" (Name) raised an eyebrow, mocking Ruggie. "What if we're here because... We already have evidence, like you said?"
She took her phone out and played a record from a day ago...
'I told you not to leave an evidence, idiot!' Leona's recorded voice was heard.
"I have evidences, Ruggie-san~!" (Name) sickly grinned, pausing the record.
"What?!" Leona glared at Ruggie. "You said that they don't have evidences!"
"I-I did!" Ruggie refrained.
"H-How?! Then we already had smell you that time!" One of the minions declared.
"One of my celestial spirits recorded it and I also made sure they can't be smelt by hybrids like you guys." (Name) clarified, also showing the perfume that a certain someone gave.
[𝐅𝐋𝐀𝐒𝐇𝐁𝐀𝐂𝐊]
*This takes place after the Prefects' Meeting~
(Name) and Vil was together because they both are going to the 3rd years classroom. (Name) have to give the papers for the 3rd years as Crowley's request and Vil accompanied her, even though he objected it at the first place...
"Vil-senpai, why does Leona-san have ears?"
Vil raised his eyebrow on (Name), "You don't know?" He asked.
(Name) nodded her head, "Why?"
"Leona is also called as 'Hybrid Humans. They are the fusion of animals and humans combined." Vil conceded.
"Oh... Okay, got it!" (Name) grinned at Vil.
"Those animalistic humans don't even know how to use make-up!" Vil added, making (Name) sweatdrop at her senpai. "You too, dear! You need to use make-up!"
"Maybe some other time, senpai!" (Name) denied. 'I don't want my face to get ruined by make-up...' She added, mentally.
"If you don't want them to smell you, wear this perfume..." Vil pulled a porcelain, yellow-tainted perfume with a title saying 'Un-smell me'. He showed it to (Name).
"The title sounds really funny." (Name) giggled as they continued to walk.
Vil placed his free hand on his forehead, "You can have it, dear potato. Besides I don't want to use this at the first place." He slid it to (Name)'s breast pocket. "Rook bought it by mistake earlier! He tried to refund it, but the Felicita Cosmetics didn't want to!"
"What is the perfume that you really need though?" (Name) asked, raising an eyebrow.
" 'Uncanny' perfume. It's the latest perfume in Felicita Cosmetics and probably the new-seller, of course." Vil replied.
"Maybe because they both have 'Un-', so he must assumed that was the perfume." She explained. 'But, wow, Vil-senpai is much more girly than me. I only use strawberry&vanilla scent in perfumes.'
"He also said that." Vil sighed. "Visit Pomefiore dorm anytime, so I can test my new make-up skills to you!"
'I'm not a doll, Vil-senpai...' (Name) irked a mark mentally. "S-Sure, if I had free time."
[𝐄𝐍𝐃 𝐎𝐅 𝐅𝐋𝐀𝐒𝐇𝐁𝐀𝐂𝐊]
"Should we teach them a lesson, Leona-san?" One of the minions of Leona asked.
Leona nod, "Play with them a little."
Five of Leona's minions came infront of the Heartslabyul and Ramshackle fellas. (Name) and Carla took the place infront...
"Girls is our enemies, guys!" The first one taunted, laughing.
"We should be careful to not break them!" The second one mocked.
"Dude, you're thinking dirty things! HAHAHAHAHA!" The third one jested.
Riddle, Deuce, and Jack were gonna beat them, too. Yet, Pantherlily stopped them...
"Let our girls have their fun." Pantherlily smirked.
"But, Lily! They could get beaten!" Deuce argued.
Pantherlily just smiled at Deuce, "Don't worry. Our precious (Name) and Carla had done this a lot of times." He assured.
Jack narrowed his gaze on Pantherlily's eyes, trying to find out if he's lying. (Name) turned around and gave them a thumbs up, signaling that they're fine...
(Name) took her Uncle Loke/Leo's key, "Carla, mind if we do the honors?" She asked.
"Of course, young lady~!" Carla smirked, turning into her human form. Carla is wearing a blue t-shirt, fingerless black gloves, black jeans, and white rubber shoes. "They'll pay for belittling us."
𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐫 𝐃𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐬: 𝐋𝐞𝐨 𝐅𝐨𝐫𝐦!
(Name)'s PE uniform turned into an elegant, frilled, black ball gown that is slit up their left leg and tied with gold sash that sits around their hips. A black, frilled choker sits around their neck, and a ribbon with the mark of the Leo zodiac emblazoned upon it falls between her breasts...
"Let's go, Carla~!" (Name) snickered, ready to battle.
⚔ [𝐁𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐥𝐞 𝐒𝐞𝐪𝐮𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞!] ⚔
𝐈𝐜𝐞 𝐌𝐚𝐠𝐢𝐜: 𝐒𝐩𝐢𝐤𝐲 𝐒𝐢𝐜𝐤𝐥𝐞𝐬!
The 3rd person from the opponents' team summoned sickles from above and (Name) immediately took Aquarius' key...
𝐖𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐁𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐫!
Because of the Water Barrier, the ice sickles just slid from the water surface of the barrier. (Name) immediately took her magical pen and it felt like time got slowed down. The sickles were still in mid-air, so she positioned her the pen on the sickles...
𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐞!
Time suddenly got to normal and the ice sickles damaged the 3rd person of the other side (1 out of 5)...
"Hah!" The 4th and 5th person were now lunging at the girls, so Carla...
𝐖𝐡𝐢𝐭𝐞 𝐌𝐨𝐨𝐧!
Carla immediately kicked them on the head by kicking from above. "Ow!" The two of them groaned in pain before losing consciousness (3 out of 5).
𝐎𝐩𝐞𝐧! 𝐆𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐩𝐢𝐨𝐧: 𝐒𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐩𝐢𝐨!
"Scorpio!" (Name) ordered pointing on the 1st person.
𝐒𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐁𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫!
Scorpio's sand magic spell send the 1st person flying in the air, harshly sending him on the other side of the Magift Stadium. (4 out of 5) (Name) closed Scorpio's gate and positioned herself in running stance towards the last one...
Then she yelled... The most strong spell she had...
𝐑𝐞𝐠𝐮𝐥𝐮𝐬 (𝐍𝐚𝐦𝐞)...!
"AHHH!!!" The 2nd person stumbled back as he tried to ran away from (Name).
... 𝐊𝐢𝐜𝐤!
"AHHHHHHHHHHH!" The 2nd person got his face kicked by (Name)'s signature kick.
"WHATTTT?!" Leona and Ruggie had weird faces looking at the last person that the girls' defeated one of his minions by a kick.
"EHHHHHH?!" Riddle, Ace, and Jack is also surprised and at the same time, weirded out from (Name)'s proclamation.
"Riddle-senpai!"
「𝐎𝐟𝐟 𝐖𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐇𝐞𝐚𝐝!」
⚔ [𝐄𝐧𝐝 𝐨𝐟 𝐁𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐥𝐞 𝐒𝐞𝐪𝐮𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞!] ⚔
"W-We shouldn't underestimated them in the first place..." The 1st guy coughed from the 'strong' impact of the Heartfilia's kick.
"Prefects are no joke..." The 2nd one said.
"All bark and no bite like normal dogs~!" Carla taunted.
"Eh~! Carla, don't mock them!" (Name) joked, laughing mischievously. Turning back to her PE uniform, she spoke, "What now, Leona-san?"
"You girls, okay?" Riddle asked, placing his hand on both shoulders of the girls.
"We're fine, Riddle-senpai." Carla gave Riddle a thumbs up.
"Me too." (Name) smiled at Riddle, feeling his heart jumped seeing her smile like that.
Leona clicked his tongue, "These guys don't stand a chance against herbivore and her pet."
Ruggie suddenly chuckled out of nowhere, which made all of them snap their heads to his direction, "Even if you do this, it's already too late to help Diasomnia!"
"Pray tell, I am quite interested in that story."
"Who said they were too late?"
"As you can see, us Diasomnia players are safe and sound. And it's all thanks to them."
The Savanaclaw students looked at their behind, seeing the 3 players out of 7 of Diasomnia safe and sound. No bruises, wounds, nor fractures. The 3 are followed by Cater, Ace, Happy, and Aries...
"Eh, what!? You guys should've been swallowed by the crowd a while ago...!" Ruggie exclaimed.
"Too bad~!" Cater giggled. "Those were all my clones that I dressed up to look like them~!"
"What did you say?!" Leona glared at Cater.
"I've always admired Diasomnia's dorm uniform, y'know~? I'm so lucky I got to try them on~!" Cater smiled sheepishly at Leona. "I'll upload it later~!"
"Dear me. You should have just said so, and I would have lent you mine." Lilia offered at Cater.
Cater looked at Lilia, then his clothes, "Hm... Lilia-chan's clothes might not fit me..."
"Hey, what's going on?" Leona asked.
"I've heard of your plan from Riddle, and we decided to put on a little act." Lilia responded, showing his toothy fangs.
Ruggie widened his eyes, "Th-then, Malleus is..."
"He is safe, of course!" The green haired guy continued. "And all the spectators were safely released using this Human's magic." He pointed on (Name), who gave a wave.
"Yes! (Name) ordered Aries to use wool magic to remove the manipulating magic casted on the spectators!" Happy happily announced.
Then Aries bowed. "I'm really sorry!"
"A-Aries..." (Name) sweatdropped.
"You better be grateful!" The green haired guy barked.
The Savanaclaw students and Ruggie can't help, but to choke on their own breath. Their plan was ruined and plus, they'll be disqualified if (Name) gave the recordings and evidences to the Headmaster...
Leona kept silent before he spoke, "Ah, I'm done."
"Eh?" Ruggie looked at Leona with a confused and disappointed face.
"I give up." Leona announced, causing the Savanaclaw students to snap their head to Leona.
"Wai—Leona-san... What do you mean...?" Ruggie asked, trying to smile. "You aren't serious, right?"
"Idiot." Leona glared at Ruggie. "If Malleus is gonna play in perfect condition, we have a 0% winning chance."
"Didn't thought Leona-san would go that far." (Name) stated, caressing Aries' bowing head. "Aries, why are you still bowing?"
"I'm really sorry, Mistress!" Aries cried as she hugged the Heartfilia. With a swift of Aries' key, she suddenly vanished.
Lilia was watching, quite fascinated to the young ones' magic. He haven't seen that kind of magic for the years he is living, of course he thought it's her 'Unique Magic'. Something's just bothering him from the very start...
"There's no point in playing now. I'm gonna sit this one out." Leona added.
Carla stood infront [still in human form] of (Name), she couldn't risk the life of the Heartfilia to a petty fight between animals because of... Things she can't declare right now...
"N-no way...!" Ruggie exclaimed. "Malleus aside, I did what you said and injured all those players... And yet... You said you won't play. I doubt we'd even place at all now..." Tears appearing at the bottom of his eyes. "What's going to happen to our dreams now...?"
"I hate dramatic people." Pantherlily grimaced at the scene.
"No matter how much of the world watches, in the end it's just a students' game." Leona clarified. "You guys just got delusional about that dream and I just played along."
"Why...? Weren't we going to overturn the world...?" Ruggie nagged.
Leona chuckled deeply, "Ah, stop nagging... Then, let me tell you the truth." He breathed in and out. "You are a hyena raised in the trashy slums and I'm the loathed second prince who will never be king! No matter what we do, the world won't be overturned!"
"Wh-what the hell!? Don't mess with me!" Ruggie argued back. "We did all this and now you're giving up!?"
'So that was his very own details... And yet... He's not even grateful he still had a family to proceed in this life. How ridiculous!' (Name) thought, clenching her fist and her eyes piercing on Leona's figure.
"That's going too far, Leona-san!" The 4th guy of Savanaclaw students, who were got beaten, yelled.
"We're gonna have you play even if we have to drag you there!" The 5th one stated.
"Ah, you're so irritating..." Leona's fist clench in anger. "Shut up, you imbeciles!"
*𝐃𝐑𝐈𝐏!* *𝐃𝐑𝐈𝐏!* *𝐃𝐑𝐎𝐏!*
As Leona touched something, sand enveloped the area. Like a sandstorm, but not destructive like the actual one...
"Ah...!" Ruggie yelled, but because of the sand, he can't be seen.
The Savanaclaw students panicked, running away from the Magift Practice Stadium of Savanaclaw...
"Wh-what's going on? My nose feels dry... and my eyes hurt!" Grim coughed.
"Don't open your eyes!" Carla declared, hugging (Name).
"Everything that Leona-senpai touched is turning into sand...!?" Jack conceded.
As the sand turned down, Leona was seen... Grabbing Ruggie by the arm...
"This is my unique magic, 𝐊𝐢𝐧𝐠'𝐬 𝐑𝐨𝐚𝐫. How ironic, isn't it? The magic that the loathed Prince of the Savannah was born with..." Leona smirked. "It turns everything I touch back into sand!"
*𝐃𝐑𝐈𝐏!*
"Leona-san! Stop this instant!" (Name) yelled, wriggling free from Carla's hug.
"Don't order me around, herbivore!" Leona growled at (Name).
Ruggie was struggling from breathing, yet managed to plead, "Leona... sa... It... hurts...!"
"There are cracks in Ruggie's arm!" Deuce pointed on Ruggie.
"Wait... His magic works on humans, too!?" Ace yelled.
"Leona, that is enough!" Riddle yelled.
「𝐎𝐟𝐟 𝐖𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐇𝐞𝐚𝐝!」
With no signs of struggle, Leona jumped away to prevent of having a collar...
"He avoided Riddle's magic!?" Happy and Grim yelled at the same time.
Leona gave a smug face, "I don't care if you're a genius or whatever, but don't underestimate your seniors." He professed. "Unfortunately for you, I score high with defensive magic."
"Damn...!" Riddle grit his teeth.
"C-Carla, please! At least let me help them!" (Name) pleaded.
"No!" Carla stubbornly denied.
Because of her being scared to hit Carla, she can't do anything...
"Haha! How do you like this, Ruggie?" Leona mocked. "Does it hurt? Your mouth must be so dry that you can't laugh like you used to, huh!"
Ruggie groaned in pain, "I... Ack..." He choked on his own breath.
"This is bad! If we don't do something, Ruggie-senpai will...!" Jack covered his mouth.
"We can't let that happen!" Pantherlily declared.
⚔ [𝐁𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐥𝐞 𝐒𝐞𝐪𝐮𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞!] ⚔
Pantherlily, Grim, Riddle, and Jack was now facing Leona. Deuce, Happy, and Ace are at the back of them in-case of back-up...
"Lily, turn into your human form!" Carla ordered.
"No problem!" Pantherlily immediately turned into his massive form.
Lilia, the cabbage-haired guy, and the white-haired guy widened their eyes as they saw a big cat. Jack, himself, is also surprised seeing a cat can transform with that muscles and abs bigger than his...
𝐌ú𝐬𝐢𝐜𝐚 𝐒𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐝!
Pantherlily attacked Leona, but because of Leona's magic...
𝐊𝐢𝐧𝐠'𝐬 𝐑𝐨𝐚𝐫
"Such a pity for having your sword into dusts." Leona laughed as he kick Pantherlily's gut, sending him flying.
"Lily!" Happy screamed, running to aid his fellow exceed.
𝐄𝐱𝐭𝐫𝐚 𝐋𝐚𝐫𝐠𝐞 𝐓𝐞𝐦𝐩𝐞𝐬𝐭!
𝐆𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭 𝐆𝐫𝐢𝐦 𝐅𝐢𝐫𝐞!
"WHAT THE HECK?!" Grim and Ace yelled.
They clashed foreheads, literally angry because of the thing they did. Wind and Fire can't collab...
"LET ME ATTACK FIRST!"
"OH NO, YOU DON'T!"
"SHUT UP, FIREHEAD!"
"SHUT UP, CAT!"
Too late, Leona send them flying...
"Stupid idiots..." Riddle glared at the two, Ace and Grim.
Happy is still on Pantherlily side, trying to wake him up. (Name) smirked secretly before faking an expression. Because Carla is facing her, meaning Leona is at her back. Happy is infront of Carla's back, so being a naughty girl for once is enough...
"Carla! Happy is being held!" (Name) yelled.
"WHAT?!" Carla turned around, causing for (Name) to get free. "(Name), where--?! YOUNG LADY!"
(Name) ran to Leona and kicked him under the chin. Causing for Ruggie to knelt, struggling from his breathing...
"You stop this right now, Leona-san!" (Name) sassed, putting her hands on her hips.
Leona touched his jaw, "That's the second time, herbivore! You'll pay for it! I don't care even if you're a girl!" He pulled his magical pen and (Name) gasped as she saw it, but before she could react Leona is casting a spell for (Name) to flew away from him.
*𝐃𝐑𝐈𝐏!* *𝐃𝐑𝐈𝐏!* *𝐃𝐑𝐎𝐏!*
⚔ [𝐄𝐧𝐝 𝐨𝐟 𝐁𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐥𝐞 𝐒𝐞𝐪𝐮𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞!] ⚔
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" (Name) screamed, still in mid-air.
"(Name)!" Carla shouted, using her 'Aera' to get the girl.
Luckily, she caught (Name), but gained a few bruises as they land on the ground. Because of the spell that Leona released, (Name) lose consciousness for a few moments. Leona grabbed Ruggie's arm again...
"You're so powerful, so why resort to something like this!?" Riddle pondered.
Leona just scoffed, "Why...? Does the reason even matter to you? Or what, are you saying you're going to comfort me?" He asked. "There are a lot of things in this world that we can never have no matter what effort we put into it."
"That's not true!" Happy said, trying to change Leona's mind.
"You don't know what I endured, cat!" Leona stated. "Look. Ruggie can't even struggle against me anymore. How pitiful, isn't he...?" He snickered as Ruggie gurgled.
*𝐃𝐑𝐈𝐏!* *𝐃𝐑𝐈𝐏!*
"STOP ALREADY!!" Jack yelled.
𝐔𝐧𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐝 𝐁𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐭!
"That's...!" Riddle muttered.
The wolf, also called as Jack, growled at Leona before lunging at him...
"H-he transformed!?" Pantherlily exclaimed.
"What in the–!?" Leona looked at the wolf. Jack lunged at Leona, causing for him to stumbled back. "Ah!!"
"Bring Lily and Ruggie here!" Carla called, still having (Name) in her arms.
"Leona's distracted!" Riddle grinned, positioning his magical pen to Leona.
「𝐎𝐟𝐟 𝐖𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐇𝐞𝐚𝐝!」
"Gah!" Leona felt the weight on his neck.
"Nice one, Riddle-kun~! Leona-kun's magic stopped, too!" Cater praised.
Jack put the injured person on Carla's side. Deuce checked Pantherlily's vitals, sighing in relief as his friend is still breathing. Ruggie placed his back on Jack's wolf form as he breath heavily...
"Sebek, let's go bring the others to safety." The silver-haired man uttered.
"Don't order me around, Silver!" The man named 'Sebek' groused on the first guy named as 'Silver'.
(Name) had a foggy vision, but because of the pain she experienced, she couldn't fully open her eyes. She hugged Carla tightly and Carla felt ashamed for letting the priority of their home to get hurt in her watch...
"Damn you...! A collar on a lion like me!?" Leona growled at Riddle. "Jack! Where did you obtain that kind of magic!?"
𝐔𝐧𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐝 𝐁𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐭...
Jack turned back to his human form, "Transforming myself into a giant wolf is my unique magic!"
"Hah... You turn into an actual dog using magic? That's really unique!" Leona laughed.
Jack touched his chest, "Leona-senpai... I... I aimed to join this school because I looked up to you!" He admitted. "Where did the guy I looked up to go!?"
"Who gave you the right to do that? Shut up..." Leona's magical pen started to covered into the black ink they fear.
*𝐃𝐑𝐈𝐏!* *𝐃𝐑𝐈𝐏!* *𝐃𝐑𝐎𝐏!*
"I'm not one to talk, but I can't bear to look at you right now." Riddle proclaimed. "Go into solitary for a while and cool off."
"What do you know...? Don't order me around like my older brother does..." Leona uttered.
*𝐃𝐑𝐈𝐏!*
"A man like you suits a collar more than a crown." Lilia added. "I am tired of hearing that the king of the Savannah is the lion."
"HAH?!" Leona yelled.
*𝐃𝐑𝐈𝐏!*
"Given your talents, I had always lamented the fact that you could never become king, however..." Lilia started, his eyes turning into a bat-like feature. "You now live a life full of sloth and every time you betray someone's expectations, it is the other party that you find fault in."
(Name)'s ear twitched from Lilia's declamation...
"And you think you can become king with that attitude? Compared to our dignified king, Malleus, that is truly laughable." Lilia chuckled. "Even if you have defeated Lord Malleus, if you do not rid yourself of your rotten heart... You can never become a true king!" He shouted.
(Name) stood up, releasing herself from Carla's grasp. She put one hand on her belt, but... "My keys?!" She leered, looking on her hips. The whip is the only one hanging on her belt.
"What?!" Carla looked on the ground, but because of the sand, the keys might not have left any signs.
"Yeah, you're right. It's exactly as you say..." Leona laughed maniacally. "I will never be king no matter how hard I work...!"
The Savanaclaw dorm darkened in the hue of black and orange. Sands started to float mid-air, the air became heavy, and the dorm prefect himself is surrounded by it...
"What's going on...!? I'm getting goosebumps...!" Grim exclaimed, hiding.
"Leona's magical energy is getting high... I—I can't keep casting my magic on him like this...!!!" Riddle grunted in pain, holding his other hand.
"No, this is not magical energy. This ominous negative energy is..." Lilia gasped. "No, it can't be...!"
"Get back, all of you!" Cater carried (Name) and Carla back. Until he saw a familiar collar flying, "He sent Riddle-kun's collar flying...!?"
"I've always been hated ever since I was born. I had no place to call home nor did I have a future." Leona whispered, but still can be heard. "No matter how hard I worked, I will never be acknowledged."
*𝐃𝐑𝐈𝐏!* *𝐃𝐑𝐈𝐏!* *𝐃𝐑𝐎𝐏!*
"LEONA-SAN!" (Name) screamed from Cater's grasp. "DON'T!"
*𝐃𝐑𝐈𝐏!*
"This pain, this despair..." Leona's figure started to change.
*𝐃𝐑𝐈𝐏!*
"THERE'S NO WAY YOU'LL UNDERSTAND!!!!!!!" He yelled, a terrifying yell.
*𝐃𝐑𝐎𝐏!*
"HE CHANGED APPEARANCE?!" Happy yelled.
"Wh-what is that!? There's a giant shadow behind Leona-senpai!" Jack pointed on Leona's back. A very big lion, its body parts are stitched together and like Riddle's Overblot, the head had a container full of ink with a crack...
"That's... The Blot's manifestation!" Deuce pointed out.
"Did he go into evil villain berserker mode like Riddle did!?" Grim asked.
"Anyone who can stand, go and find shelter!" Riddle declared. "Ace, Deuce, take the injured someplace safe!" He ordered.
"AYE!" They saluted, lifting Ruggie and Pantherlily from the ground.
"Lilia-senpai, please call the teachers for help!" Riddle requested.
Lilia nodded, "Understood. I shall pray for your safety." He said as he teleported.
(Name) pushed Cater away from her. "Wait! (Name)-y! You're still not fine!" Cater called. "Why do we always have to face something scary? I'm not fit for this, you know!?" He screamed.
"If you're scared, I wouldn't mind even if you run away." Riddle deadpanned.
Cater sweatdropped, "If I left you to save myself, Trey-kun will never let me hear the end of it~!" He smiled. "I'll stay with you, Prefect."
"(Name)! COME BACK HERE!" Carla demanded, trying to get herself out of Cater's grip.
"Not you, too, Carla-chan!" Cater panicked.
"I dunno what's going on, but Leona-senpai will come back to his senses if we beat him up, right?" Jack asked Happy.
"Aye!" Happy saluted.
"I... I'll help you..." Ruggie coughed, removing Deuce's arm from him. "I won't let him get away with what he said..."
"A hyena like you is disobeying me?" Leona laughed. "That's not a funny joke! All of you will never see the light of day again!" He demanded.
The lion's big paw aimed at the closest person in his area, Happy. (Name) quickly ran to Happy...
"(N-NAME)! GE-GET OUT OF THERE!" Carla sobbed, trying to help the girl.
"HAPPY!" (Name) screamed and hugged the exceed.
*𝐁𝐎𝐎𝐌!*
"NOOOOOOOOOO!" Carla screamed in terror. Sand started to enveloped the place where the lion's paw crashed into.
"𝐀𝐇𝐇𝐇𝐇𝐇𝐇𝐇𝐇𝐇𝐇𝐇𝐇!" Both Leona and the lion yelled in... Pain?
"It's (Name)'s other magic!" Pantherlily suddenly yelled in happiness. "𝐑𝐞-𝐪𝐮𝐢𝐩!"
"(Name) has other unique magics?" Riddle asked himself.
𝐑𝐞-𝐪𝐮𝐢𝐩! 𝐀𝐝𝐚𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐀𝐫𝐦𝐨𝐫!
As the sand calmed down, (Name) was seen in an armor. The shield of the armor protected them from the impact of the paw...
"SO COOL~!" Ace and Deuce awed.
"NOW'S NOT THE TIME!" (Name) yelled at them, turning into the 'Erza' attitude.
"YES!"
Jumping on the air, (Name) uttered once again. Happy, on the other hand, saw something shiny on the ground. Because of curiousness, he dig it up using his paws...
𝐑𝐞-𝐪𝐮𝐢𝐩! 𝐇𝐞𝐚𝐯𝐞𝐧'𝐬 𝐖𝐡𝐞𝐞𝐥 𝐀𝐫𝐦𝐨𝐫
"S-She's really powerful..." Jack whispered.
⚔ [𝐁𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐥𝐞 𝐒𝐞𝐪𝐮𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞!] ⚔
"Let's beat him up to get his senses back!" (Name) ordered, still in mid-air.
"Aye! Aye!" They all nodded.
"If I can't overturn this world, I'll just turn it into sand...! All of the things I did... They were meaningless!" Leona screamed.
"Is that really what you've been thinking...? All this time... Always...?" Ruggie asked.
"Ruggie-senpai. Keep it together and let's make Leona-senpai come back to his senses!" Jack shook the hyena.
"Y-Yeah..."
"Lily! Deuce! Carla!"
𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐅𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐡: 𝐂𝐚𝐮𝐥𝐝𝐫𝐨𝐧!
𝐌ú𝐬𝐢𝐜𝐚 𝐒𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐝!
𝐈 𝐬𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐞: 𝐈𝐫𝐨𝐧!
Deuce summoned the pot on Leona's head, earning a groan from the lion. Pantherlily's damaged sword also attacked Leona, causing for him to back up. The iron that Carla summoned also damaged Leona...
"Ace! Riddle-senpai!" (Name) yelled.
𝐋𝐚𝐫𝐠𝐞 𝐓𝐞𝐦𝐩𝐞𝐬𝐭!
𝐄𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐡 𝐌𝐚𝐠𝐢𝐜: 𝐒𝐩𝐢𝐤𝐲 𝐕𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬 𝐑𝐨𝐩𝐞!
Ace summoned a tsunami-like wind to damaged Leona and Riddle's spell kept him in place for direct attack...
"Jack! Ruggie-san!"
𝐈𝐜𝐞 𝐌𝐚𝐠𝐢𝐜: 𝐊𝐧𝐢𝐟𝐞 𝐁𝐥𝐢𝐳𝐳𝐚𝐫𝐝!
𝐕𝐨𝐢𝐝 𝐌𝐚𝐠𝐢𝐜: 𝐃𝐚𝐫𝐤𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐏𝐢𝐭𝐬!
"AHHHHHH!"
The lion's paw attacked them again and all of the people on the ground got swooshed by the air impact made by the lion...
"H-he's strong! You're this strong and yet... Why did you give up on everything...!?" Jack said.
"Shut up, all of you! I'll turn you into sand!!!"
𝐂𝐢𝐫𝐜𝐥𝐞 𝐒𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐬! "𝐃𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞, 𝐦𝐲 𝐛𝐥𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐬!"
A circular sword formation surrounded the Heartfilia and as she commanded the weapons, the swords immediately attacked Leona and the lion. (Name) landed on the ground and turned back to her own PE uniform...
"AHHHH! YOU'LL PAY FOR THAT!" Leona growled, trying to hit (Name).
"Heh!" (Name) stuck her tongue out, teasing Leona because he missed her again. "Miss me!"
𝐑𝐞-𝐪𝐮𝐢𝐩! 𝐋𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐄𝐦𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐀𝐫𝐦𝐨𝐫!
"How many armors does this girl have?!" Deuce asked.
"Basically more than a 100..." Pantherlily replied with a snicker.
(Name) summoned the weapon of the armor. It's a long spear, with a very large blade and a decorated circle resembling a shield attaching it to the shaft, which is adorned by a large ribbon...
"(Name)! Catch!" Happy yelled as he threw the keys he found on the sand.
"Great job, Happy!" (Name) gave Happy a thumbs up.
𝐎𝐩𝐞𝐧! 𝐆𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐆𝐨𝐥𝐝𝐞𝐧 𝐁𝐮𝐥𝐥: 𝐓𝐚𝐮𝐫𝐮𝐬!
"Yes, (Name)?" Taurus asked. "What should I do?"
"Um... Combination attack? To defeat that guy?" (Name) had a question mark floating on her head. "Right! That's right!" She snapped.
"Of course, (Name)! I'll protect you no matter what!" Taurus smirked, lifting his labrys.
𝐋𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐀𝐭𝐭𝐚𝐜𝐤!
(Name) launched a very powerful attack made by lightning. She hit the labrys of Taurus in purpose...
𝐋𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐑𝐚𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐠𝐞!
As the lightning attack of (Name) flew on Taurus' labrys, Taurus immediately collab it with his own signature attack. The ground shook and appeared a crack, seems that it's going on Leona...
"GAHHHHHHHHH!" Leona screamed.
Yet... Something strange happened. As Leona fall unconscious, (Name) got dizzy somehow and it caused for automatically closing Taurus' gate and her armor turning back into her PE uniform...
"(Name)!"
"I... will... be... king..."

"H-Huh?" (Name) woke up in a white-tiled floor. In a light yellow dress and like the last one she had been like fainting out of nowhere, she's in barefoot.
Rubbing her eyes, she observed her surroundings. It looked like she's in a palace basing from the exquisite structures and designs. "... (Name), calm down... This isn't real like the last one..."
"𝐄𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐈 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐧, 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐈 𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐬𝐞𝐞 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐚𝐧 𝐢𝐦𝐦𝐨𝐯𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐫𝐨𝐜𝐤 𝐢𝐧 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐦𝐞."
"Was that Leona-san's voice?"
She saw a stairs, so she decided to go down. Sand and the sun-set is what she saw when she got down. The view was soon blocked by 3 persons with ears on their heads, making (Name) hid on the staircase...
They were wearing long robes with yellow linings and white base. They look like servants to this palace...
Until the first one sighed, "The First Prince Farena is so cheerful and yet... I wonder why his younger brother Prince Leona is being such a difficult child."
"Prince... Leona...? Difficult..." (Name) spoke to herself before following the 3 servants, but still hiding.
"And he uses magic that turns everything he touches into sand... How frightening...!" The 2nd one shivered.
"Stop gossiping, both of you! What will you do if someone hears you?" The 3rd hissed.
"No wonder why he hates being the 2nd..."
"𝐈𝐟 𝐈 𝐰𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐅𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭 𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐞, 𝐈'𝐦 𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐢𝐬 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐲 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐬𝐚𝐲...

"... Good thing you still have your family... Leona-san..." (Name) whispered, listening on Leona's thoughts.
"𝐁𝐮𝐭 𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐈 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐧 𝐬𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐝, 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐢𝐬 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐈 𝐠𝐞𝐭...
'𝐄𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐝 𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐝𝐨𝐞𝐬 𝐢𝐬 𝐬𝐥𝐨𝐩𝐩𝐲 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭 𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐥𝐞𝐟𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐜𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐧 𝐮𝐩 𝐚𝐟𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐡𝐢𝐦.'
𝐍𝐨 𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐈 𝐝𝐨, 𝐈 𝐜𝐚𝐧'𝐭 𝐛𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐧𝐮𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐧𝐞."
All of the sudden, a cat with yellow fur and emerald sleek-like eyes rubbed it's head on (Name)'s arm. (Name) scratched it's cheek, which earned a meow and she saw a scar on it's right eye...
"You can see me?" (Name) asked the cat, earning a nod from the cat. "Eh? You can understand me too?" The cat nodded again.
It suddenly pulled her dress, surprisingly it's strong. The scenery change again, she and the cat are inside a room. She took a look on the bed and saw Leona, sleeping like his usual self that is...
"What?!" She immediately covered her mouth. Trailing her eyes on the cat, it was only cleaning itself like the normal one. "Why did you bring me here?!" She hissed.
"Hm?" Leona opened an eye as the door creaked open, showing a orange-haired guy in middle age and with lion ears like Leona. "Oh. It's only you, Farena." He deadpanned, turning back to his deep slumber.
"Is that his brother?" (Name) asked the cat. It only meowed as response, confusing the Heartfilia.
"Leona, why did you skip the ceremony?" The person named as 'Farena' asked.
"Ceremony?" Leona raised an eyebrow before awing. "Oh, the doting parent party you hosted so you could show your son off?" He asked. He scoffed, "Oh, how rude of me. I ended up going back to sleep."
Farena twitched his left lip, "Today's an important day for our people to see their future king."
"Eh? I don't understand." (Name) sweatdropped at Farena's declamation.
"It's a day to celebrate indeed. It's the day that their loathed second prince lost his right to the throne." Leona taunted.
"Stop talking like that!" Farena growled.
"People who were born first sure are special, huh." Leona mocked, sitting on his bed. He look at Farena, "You can become king even though all you do is lie around and sleep all day."
"Leona..." Farena touched his head. "Even though you can't become king, you are very smart. There are so many things you can still do for this kingdom." He explained.
Leona just huffed and left the bed, passing his brother. "I'd have done what I could if this kingdom really needed someone smart."
"Leona, stop right there!" Farena tried to stop Leona. "Leona!"
"How rude..." (Name) said. Standing up to follow Leona, the cat followed her.
As she followed Leona, his thoughts was heard again...
"𝐖𝐡𝐲 𝐝𝐢𝐝 𝐈 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐠𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐛𝐞𝐜𝐚𝐮𝐬𝐞 𝐈 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐧 𝐚 𝐟𝐞𝐰 𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐫?"
The scenery changed again and she saw Leona, reading books about magic. Carefully peeking on the book, the Leona infront of her suddenly slammed the book closed. He brushed his hair up to down, seeing how frustrated he is...
"𝐍𝐨 𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐝 𝐈 𝐬𝐭𝐮𝐝𝐢𝐞𝐝, 𝐧𝐨 𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐦𝐮𝐜𝐡 𝐈 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐟𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐦𝐲 𝐦𝐚𝐠𝐢𝐜..."
The cat caressed its head on (Name)'s bare leg, comforting her...
"It's okay..." (Name) scratched the cat's head. "I'm fine..."
"𝐅𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐈 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐧 𝐮𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐥 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐈 𝐝𝐢𝐞, 𝐦𝐲 𝐛𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐚𝐥𝐰𝐚𝐲𝐬 𝐛𝐞 𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐤𝐞𝐝 𝐮𝐩 𝐭𝐨, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐈 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐧𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐛𝐞 𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠.

Then a spotlight was seen again while the others turn into pitch black. Leona was there, looking above. A crown with a black silhouette wearing it...
"𝐖𝐡𝐲? 𝐖𝐡𝐲? 𝐖𝐇𝐘?!"
The cat's eyes turn into bluish sky and (Name) knew what this was... Leona's despair the whole time...
