"Ace! Deuce-kun!" Alice cried out, wanting to run out to them but Trey quickly pulled her back, holding her close to him. "Off With Your Head!" Before Ace and Deuce could even react, Riddle waved his scepter, and the two boys cried out in pain as the wretched collars soon appeared on their necks once again.

"Uuwwaaaah!!!" Ace and Deuce both screamed out. They couldn't believe it! They were back in those heavy collars again! Alice felt as if her breath had been sucked right out of her lungs as she watched her two friends collapse.

"Oh, goodness! Are you two alright? You're notbadly hurt, are you?" Alice asked her friends. "Ugh...Darn! We didn't even havetime to materialize our magic!" Ace angrily said, slamming his fist on thegrass. "I didn't think we stood this little of a chance..." Deuce added. Kiraturned to Riddle. "Geez, that guy's quick!" she mused.

"Strong magic comes from a strong imagination. The stronger your ability to accurately imagine magic, the stronger and more effective it will be." Crowley explained as he crossed his arms. "Mr. Rosehearts' magic only continues to become even more polished."

He didn't want to say anything else, but he had hoped that the two boys would win. Yet the realistic side of him knew that Riddle would be the victor. "Ffgna... Our difference in skill is so big...!" Grim exclaimed with tears in his eyes.
