Octavinelle!

It was the Leech Twins, Jade and Floyd. They were looming on their small figures, as if they're gonna do something bad like what they did at the final test last week...

     "Huh? Why're you two here?!" Grim shrieked at the Leech Twins, surprised at their presence. "Where are we?"

     "Why?" Floyd repeated, giving him a raised eyebrow. "We already told you that we won't be returning to our hometown since it's winter break, remember?"

     "Then... We're in Octavinelle?" Grim asked.

     "Indeed we are, we are currently inside Monstro Lounge," Jade replied with his usual smile.

     "We-We did it!" Grim exclaimed. "We finally escaped that dorm prison!" He cheered along with the magic carpet.

     "Prison?" Jade asked, confused about Grim's sudden word.

     "Eh? Little Shrimp?!" Floyd exclaimed as he saw (Name) lying on the floor. He pulled his handkerchief to remove the specks of dust out of her face, "Hey, little shrimp. Wake up."

     "Huh?" (Name) managed to open her eyes. "Floyd-senpai? Where am I?"

     "Monster Lounge, (Name)," Jade replied from behind. "Can I ask what are you wearing? It's themed as Scarabia's dorm colors. Did you three came from Scarabia?"

     "Yes, we did," (Name) nodded.

     "What's that flounder-looking thing?" Floyd pointed at the magic carpet behind (Name).

     "It looks very similar to the magic carpet that Kalim-san keeps," Jade stated, poking the magic carpet. "Where did you get this, (Name)?"

     (Name) laughed nervously, "It's... It's very hard to explain, but we're in deep trouble... Much, much deeper than we had experienced in the past school chaos."

     "There's nowhere to run, you sneaky bastards!"

     "Stay put and behave!"

     "They reached us until here?!" Carla shrieked in disappointment. "You guys are so persistent!"

     "What's this ruckus so late at night?!" The Dorm Leader of Octavinelle, Azul Ashengrotto, firmly declared as he entered the scene.

     "You're Octavinelle's Dorm Leader Azul Ashengrotto!!!"

     Azul looked at the Leech Twins, "What is going on here exactly?" He questioned his minions.

     "This doesn't concern Octavinelle! Can you hand those three over three?" One of the Scarabia students favored as they pointed on the Ramshackle students.

     Azul looked at the floor to see the Ramshackle students, "Oh my, now that I looked closely... The people under me are the Ramshackle students. What a pity! I have mistaken them for a dust cloth!"

     "Azul..." Carla glared at the dorm leader. "We're involved in something much deeper than the sea, so as you guys have charitable hearts, please help us?" She gave her sweet voice, making (Name) and Grim flinched from how she can control her emotions.

     "Hm..."

     "We won't let you off easily if you don't hand them right now!" One of the students threatened.

     Floyd's eyes darkened as he looked at that specific student, "Hah? Who do you think you're talking to?" He asked as he stood up?

     "I cannot authorize any manner of brawl here in Monstro Lounge, this is a gentleman's place after all," Azul declared. "I also won't allow any of you touch (Name) or else..."

     "What'd you say? Are you interfering?!" One of them yelled at them.

     "Don't mind him! It's a test of strength then!"

     Azul sighed in defeat, "Hmph, I'm afraid to say that I cannot deal with such rowdy customers, even though I already warned you. Jade, Floyd, please chase them out."

     "Yes."

     "Yes~!"

As Jade and Floyd were fighting them, (Name) was getting a facial wash for Azul, fixing her face from the dust, and the companions she had been watching blankly as if they are watching some kind of action movie...
