Kagome P.O.V

After Grim managed to scare the ghosts away, we finally let out a breath of relief and Grim carefully opened his eyes to look

"E-Eh? We... We won?" Grim asked and I nodded

"Yes! We won! It's all thanks to you Grim!" I said happily

"Ha... Ha... That was sc... I mean I wasn't scared at all! This is nothing for the Great Grim! How bout that ghosts? You done?" Grim wanted to make sure there are no ghosts, and we heard the front door opening, we went back downstairs to see who it is. When we got to the foyer, we saw Headmaster Crowley with some bags and a cart carrier full of food

"Good evening, Miss Kagome. I have graciously brought you supper and some groceries!" Crowley said and he soon realized that Grim is with me "Ah! You're the monster that ran amuck during the entrance ceremony! I threw you out of the school. What are you doing here?!"

"Hmph! Well excuse me, but thanks to me I exterminated the ghost problem! Be grateful that I got rid of the problem!" Grim said with a huff and Crowley looked at Grim for a moment

"Ghosts? Miss Kagome, what does he mean by that?" Crowley asked and I explained to him what happened

After a couple of minutes of explaining what happened, Crowley put his fingers under his chin

"I see. Now that you mention it, there were some prankster ghosts living here, so the students keep away from this dormitory and that's why it is now empty. It seems I'd forgotten that" Crowley said and I felt an irk mark on my head

"So, it's technically your fault for not checking before placing me here" I said bluntly, making Crowley feel like he was stabbed by an arrow, but he managed to regain his composure

"Ahem. I never expected you two to work together to get rid of them" Crowley said

"I'm not gonna overlook the 'together' comment. That girl was just standing there watching and I did this for a can of tuna" Grim said and suddenly remembered the promise I made for him "Ah! I haven't gotten that tuna yet!" Before Grim could talk more, Crowley started talking again

"I'd like the two of you to show me how you exterminated those ghosts" Crowley requested us

"Huh? But we've already gotten rid of all the ghosts! Before that. Give. Me. Tuna!" Grim demanded and Crowley pulled a vial from his pocket

"I shall be the ghost. If you beat me, I'll give you cans of tuna. For I am gracious. Transformation potion!" Crowley said as drank the potion and he changed into a ghost

"Eeeeeeeehhh, I don't wanna. This is a pain, and I don't have to team up with her again..." Grim said sounding uninterested

"Sigh... Listen Grim, this could be your chance" I said and Grim looked at me with a confused look "If you can show the headmaster how strong you are, he might let you stay at this school without kicking you out" That caught his attention

"Grrr... This is the last time! I'm absolutely, absolutely getting my tuna!" Grim said and started to fight against the headmaster

After the fight

Grim started panting cause the fight took longer than the other ghosts we faced

"*Pant* How's that?" Grim asked and Crowley is no longer a ghost since he had another potion to change him back to normal

"I can't believe... There is a person who can command monsters. To be honest with you, my intuition as an educator has been telling me that you have talent as a beast tamer since the uproar during the entrance ceremony. But... No matter how..." Then Crowley started to mumble

"Actually Crowley, I was wondering if you can let Grim stay here with me" I asked, and Crowley looked at me with a surprised look

"What? You want to keep the monster?"

"Please? I promise to keep a close eye on him" I begged with puppy dog eyes

"Sigh... Alright. I'll allow you keep the monster" Crowley said

"Really?!" Grim asked excitedly

"However, I can't simply allow someone, let alone a monster, who wasn't chosen by the Dark Mirror into this school. While Miss Kagome will be attending school, I don't want the monster to be freeloading" Crowley said

"Talk about a short-lived joy" Grim said with a glum look

"Let me finish. For the time being, you shall be permitted to stay in this dormitory for free. But other necessities you will have to provide for yourself" Crowley said

"I see. Then, are there any places in the school that will be accepting work for part time or full time?" I asked and Crowley started to think

"Well, there is a job opening in Mostro Lounge at Octavinelle Dorm, if you wish to work there then you need to speak with the dorm leader Azul Ashengrotto. You can go to the dorm after school tomorrow, to get to the dorm, you go to the mirror chambers, there you see seven mirrors with different symbols above the mirrors, here's what the dorm symbol for Octavinelle looks like" Crowley pulled out an emblem from his pocket and handed it to me

'Looks like I know where I'm going tomorrow. Hopefully I'll get the job' I thought to myself and prayed that I'll get the job

"Starting tomorrow, you monster cat will be cleaning" Crowley said and Grim looked shocked

"What?! Why do I have to do that?!" Grim shouted

"Oh? If you don't want to clean, then I'll be more than happy to kick you out of the school" Crowley said and Grim went silent "Alright, I'll be here tomorrow to tell you of your janitorial duties, so for now eat your supper and I'll put away the groceries. I'll even check on the electricity and plumbing" With that said, Crowley left the foyer

"Ready to eat dinner Grim?" I asked and Grim nodded quickly, we started to eat the food that Crowley brought

'Sigh... What a weird 15th birthday I'm having... I wonder how tomorrow will turn out?' I thought

Once we finished dinner, Crowley came back telling us that the electricity and plumbing are in working order and left the dorm saying he'll be back in the morning with breakfast. Then, I picked up Grim and started look for a room for us to sleep tonight. I opened the first door, and the room didn't look to messy, I placed Grim down on the floor and start to shake the blanket for any dust. Once the dust is no longer on the blanket, I picked up Grim again and placed him on the bed, and immediately fell asleep

'I better go to sleep too; I need to wake up early tomorrow' I sat down on the bed to take off my shoes and I felt something in my pocket, I took out the object from my pocket and saw it was my phone

"My phone... I thought I lost it..." I opened my phone and looked through the pictures I took from my world before I was brought here "Mom... Sota... Grandpa... I hope I'll get back home someday" I put my phone away and I went to sleep
