Maria P.O.V

After the meeting was over, Riddle walked me back to Ramshackle. I gave a kiss on the cheek and thanked him for walking me back. Riddle left with a red look on his face, which I find very cute. When I entered the dorm, I saw Grim sulking on the couch

"I don't wanna do anything... Noting brings me joy if I can't play Magift" Grim said

"There, there Grim" I petted his back hoping to cheer him up

"What's up Grimy boy? What's got your fur in a bunch?" Berry asked

"He's pouting cause they won't let him play in the Magical Shift Tournament. Hee hee hee!" Curley chuckled as he answered

"If you wanna play that bad, we'll play against you" Albert said, surprising both Grim and I "We were players that drove the crowd wild 90 years ago!"

"We need a team of seven, right?" Grim asked

"Doesn't matter since it's not official! Let's go!" Berry said as he grabbed Grim's paw and went outside

'I should watch them play so I can understand how to play' I thought to myself as I walked outside

After Grim played Magift with the ghosts, he looks happy now. I walked towards Grim and patted his head

"You did great, Grim!" I said and Grim smiled, but it quickly disappeared when we saw the headmaster coming

"Hello everyone. Are you playing Magicial Shift?" Headmaster Crowley asked

"Geh. It's the guy that always brings down the room" Grim said

"I see you're getting along well with the dorm ghosts. Splendid, splendid" Headmaster Crowley said

"We are not getting along!" Grim shouted "What d'you want?"

"I have a request to make for the both of you. It's not a simple chit-chat, so let's go inside" Headmaster Crowley said as he started walking inside the dorm without waiting for us

'Remind me again why or how he's the headmaster' I thought as Grim and I started heading inside

Ramshackle Lounge

We took a seat on the couch and waited for Headmaster Crowley to start explaining

"What's the request? We aren't your handymen anymore, y'know" Grim said

"Oh yeah? I don't remember saying anything about your room and board being free of charge. Labor is a beautiful thing, right, Grim, Maria?" Headmaster Crowley said

"Are you threating us? Cause if you are I'm letting Crewel sensei know about this" I said with a glare, and that made the headmaster freak out a bit

"Ah! No, no. It's nothing like that. I promise" Then Headmaster Crowley cleared his throat "I will get straight to the point. Recently, there have been an increasing number of students injured in suspicious accidents. I'd like to have the both of you investigate them" Headmaster Crowley said

"Injuries?" Grim asked

"What kind of injuries?" I asked

"Tripping downstairs, burned by boiling water... The causes vary, but in the past several days, the number of patients in the infirmary has dramatically increased. Including the person who fell down the stairs yesterday. That makes ten people injured. I'm glad none of the injuries have been severe, but..."
