Episode 1-15: The New Glory

***Glory's New Look^****

While Glory fell asleep, she heard a loud shriek just now.

"You went and sullied my roses! Prepare yourself!"

"Hm?"

Glory slowly open her eyes and rise up when she heard a loud noise until her eyes widen when she saw Wonderland's ruthless Queen of Hearts holding up the tree with an enraged look as the three card soldiers and Alice stood before her with feared looks.

I know this scene...this is where the Queen of Hearts found out the roses were left white!

Glory thought as she quickly figure it out when she watches the Queen glaring down at the soldiers and Alice.

"I beg your forgiveness, Your Highness. It's their fault." The Three of Clovers points out.

"It wasn't me, it was Ace!" The Two of Clovers denies and points to the Ace of Clovers. Curious, the Queen of Hearts spun her head to the Ace of Clovers.

"Was it you?" The Queen asks with a stern tone.

"No, it was Two!" The Ace of Clovers denies and points at Two.

"Two's doing?" Queen asks looking confused, but Glory could feel her aggravation coming out of her tone.

"No, it was Three!" Two denies and Queen has enough of their banter and slams the tree to the ground.

"Enough! Off with all their heads!" She ordered as the Heart soldiers grab the three cards and drag them, all of them screamed in terror. Afterwards, the Queen hums happily as she watches her leave with a giddy smile.

"Now that's what I called a tyrant..." Glory utters while watching her leave. Soon she heard the Heart soldiers gossiping.

"Of course you lose your head for using the wrong color." The Two of Diamonds whispers.

"I can't believe anyone would mix up red and white." The Three of Spades mutters.

Afterwards, the dream ended with another cliffhanger leaving Glory silent with a frown as she grips her fists.

"Ridiculous. You don't need to take someone's head over rose colors. Why didn't anyone stop the Queen?" Glory mutters questioning about Heartslabyul's rules.

"Because I am the rules..."

She gasped and Glory spun to see the queen of hearts. Alarmed, she twist her body and glares at the terrifying tyrant.

"Rules are considered validated, but beheading them does not make anything better!" Glory scolds, but the tyrant queen roars with laughter and glance at the brazen ravenette.

"You questioned me, little girl?" She asks condescendingly.

"You're in my domain, and when you're in my castle...."

Soon her head contorts into the face of the infamous redhead Riddle himself, who shoots a smug at Glory.

"You must OBEY." He darkly reminded and soon his eyes glow red.
——————————

"Aah!" Glory gasped and swiftly roses up, panting heavily from the dream she had before laying her hand on her temple.

"Ugh...god." She groans and glance at the window, squinting her eyes to see the sun crept above the hills before erupting a sigh.

"Welp. Time to get ready..." She muttered as Glory pulls the blanket off of her and got off the bed.

Today's the day. Today is Heartslabyul's Unbirthday Party where everyone should be there on time or else, OFF WITH THEIR HEADS. Is what the Queen of Hearts aka Riddle says. She even call Merlin to cancel their training and told him about the party which he took the news genuinely and allows her to attend.

Being an early bird she is, Glory took a quick shower and drying herself with a towel as well as blow drying her hair. Afterwards, she went back to her room to style her hair only this time it's a semi-wavy style short hair. No longer the perm that she always wears, as Glory upgraded her looks a bit. Starting from her hair and makeup since she wants to prove to everyone in this campus that she's different from Mother Gothel and that she's her own being.

She even changed her makeup. No longer the dark gray eyeshadow she wore, the maroon lips she wore. The eyeshadow is much more lighter and her lips are now in a salmon color. Once she's done with her makeup, Glory goes to her wardrobe to rummage her clothes she needs. Soon she caught something in her eye when Glory grabs her red crop top, a red skirt that reaches down to her upper thighs, and cute red high heels. Then she grabs her jewels such as her black heart shaped necklace and a gold bracelet.

*****Glory's Unbirthday Party Outfit^*****

"Hmmm..." Glory checks herself in the mirror as she slowly twirls around to get a good glimpse of her new look and her outfit for the party. She puts her hands to her hips with a satisfying smile.

"That should do it, and...."

Glory then grabs small black glove and place on to her left hand. Then he gives herself a nod in approval.

"Now, I'm ready!" She mutters.

"That's a nice outfit you're wearing Glory."

Glory soon turns around to see the lanky ghost and the chubby ghost appearing in her room and she grins.

"Thanks, I'm going to an Unbirthday Party at Heartslabyul today." Glory told him.

"Eeeeh? Lucky! I bet there's going to be sweets there!" The chubby ghost pouts and she giggles.

"They do." She replies.

"Well, you better hurry or else-"

"Off with my head, I know. I'll be out in a second." Glory reassures. Soon she heard a light ding from her phone and Glory went to her desk to grab her phone when she grin when she receives a text from Cater.

Cater: Remember to arrive at the party or it's off your heads! Kay? ❤️

Glory giggles and types a reply to Cater.

Glory: I will Cay. We'll won't be late.

Cater: 👍💗😘

Glory giggles at his emojis.

"Who are you texting?" The lanky ghost asks.

"Cater. He was just reminding me about arriving at the party." Glory told him and both ghosts nod. Just before she went back to what she's doing, she felt her phone bleeping when she turns her phone to receive a text message from Rook.

Rook: Bonjour beaute, how's mon cheri doing in this beautiful morning?

Glory giggles and texts him back.

Glory: Morning Romeo, I slept well. You?

She asks and Rook reply with a text.

Rook: Fabulous, now that I can see your text~❤️

Glory rolls her eyes while grinning at his flirty text. Then he send another text.

Rook: Any plans for today? I was hoping you would come back to my dorm so we could stroll around and I could show you every garden we have in Pomefiore.

Rook asks curiously making her grin when he suggests that. Glory then types a text and send it to him.

Glory: I do, sorry. I'm going to an Unbirthday Party at Heartslabyul. I don't want to have my head chop off. So I don't think won't be arriving at the photography club today.

She told him.

Rook: Le sigh, I was hoping you would say yes, but nevertheless I must get going. Vil wants me and Epel at the lounge for a little meeting. You know how he hates negligence, so I must be ready for that.

He told her and Glory grins.

Glory: Of course. You're Pomefiore's vice leader after all, a vice leader must always work their hardest for their dorm leaders.

She reassures.

Rook: Indeed mon cheri. Now if you excuse me, I must be on my way.

He told her.

Glory: Sure, see you in school?

She asks curiously.

Rook: Oui ma Magnifique. See you later and be sure to be careful with Riddle. You know how he is with rules. Besides, we don't want that pretty little face of yours to go to waste now would we?

He asks and Glory smiles gently.

Glory: Course I do, I'll be sure to behave this time. See you later, Romeo.

Rook: Au revoir, ma Juliette. 😘

Right after he end the message with a kiss emoji, Glory giggles and puts the phone on the desk. Unbeknownst to her, chubby ghost peer behind her who was observing her text conversation with Rook this entire time.

"Hehehe looks like someone's got herself a boyfriend~!" The chubby teases causing the lanky ghost to snicker. Glory widen her eyes when he sneak right behind her and blink twice.

"Seriously? Do you have to do that?" Glory asks.

"Wha? And miss your little romance with some guy named 'Rook'? Never." The chubby ghost retorts making her flush a bit.

"Dawwww our princess is blushing! How cute~!" The lanky ghost jokes and that causes her to lose it with these ghosts.

"Guys, he's not my boyfriend!" She scolds at them as they both snicker. Glory sighs and turns back to her backpack.

"Welp, better start packing." Glory mutters as she grabs her stuff and her dagger to put it in her bag, she heard the door open and Glory turns to see Grim walking in.

"Hey Glo- WOW! You look gorgeous!" Grim shrills with his eyes widen.

"She is." The lanky ghost agrees.

"I know right? Isn't she adorable?" The chubby ghost asks and Glory giggles.

"Thanks, I just wanna look kickass for the party and I decided to make an upgrade on my hair and makeup." Glory told him.

"Well, you're certainly did a good job. But we don't have time for this, we gotta head to Heartslabyul now!" Grim reminds her and she nods as she grabs her bag. But soon an image of Riddle's heart turning black flashed in her mind.

I don't know what's going to happen, but I got a bad feeling that something horrible is going to happen with Riddle. I better keep a close eye on him.

Glory ponder and shook her head to revert back her sense.

"Let's get going then, see you guys. Don't cause trouble while we're gone Kay?" She reminds them as both ghosts nod their heads. Then Glory and Grim left the room and head downstairs to meet with Deuce and Ace.

"Oh there you- HOLY DAMN, YOU'RE HOT!" Ace shouts with his eyes widen with awe.

"Ace!" Deuce scolds at him with a frown.

"What? I'm just sayin'!" Ace retorts. This causes Glory to form a playful smile as a sly idea pop from her head. Glory then let's out a giggle and struts her way towards Ace in a suggestive manner baffling the orange haired boy.

"Um, prefe-"

Glory lifts his chin and flashes him with an innocent grin.

"Do I make you horny...."

"Acey-kun~" She whispers provocatively making his entire face flush. Unbeknownst to him, Deuce, and Grim, Glory got that line from the movie, Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery.

"Wha-WHAT!?" Ace shrills as he attempts to make a few steps back, but Glory took a few steps forward and wraps an arm around his waist while holding his chin as she lets out a giggle.

"Do I make you horny, baby, yeah? Do I?" She teases while mimicking the lines from Austin Powers making his face turn beet red causing Deuce and Grim to be shocked and confused.

"H-Hey! Come on now!" Ace stutters while turning beet red.

"Gah! G-Glory-san?!" Deuce shrieks.

"What's gone into you!?" Grim shrills.

Glory couldn't contain herself anymore as she start bursting out of laughter and holds her stomach while laughing stunning both men and Grim.

"Wha?!" Ace stammers.

"Huh!?" Deuce and Grim shrieks when she starts laughing.

"Oh my god! Hahaha! I can't! That was sooo priceless! Hahaha!!!" She cackles while holding her stomach. As she breathes in and out before Glory shoots him with a smirk.

"Aaaah~ that's what you get for calling me a 'guy-magnet' yesterday, baaaka.~" Glory jeers sticking her tongue at him causing his jaw to drop and scowls at the sly ravenette.

"What the-! You demon!!" Ace bellows while blushing making her laugh again.

"Ah Jeez..." Deuce sighs shaking his head.

"Damn, you got us panic just now." Grim sighs in relief.

"Duh! I was only joking! You really think I would literally do that? Besides, that face you're making just now was HILARIOUS!" Glory cackles.

"Why you-!"

Suddenly a knock came from the door.

"Hm? Sounds like someone's here." Deuce said.

"I'll go get it." Glory told him as she strolls pass them. Ace, Grim, and Deuce noticed the heart tattoo that says "princess" on her back.

"Eh? What's that thing on your back?" Grim asks curiously pointing his finger. Glory froze before sighing through her nose and turns her head to him.

"It's a tattoo." She told him.

"Tattoo?" Grim asks tilting his head and she nods.

"Yeah. It's a mark with cool different designs that you can put on your body." Glory said.

"Is that what humans do?" Grim asks curiously and the ravenette shakes her head.

"Nope. Not all humans have tattoos, just some." Glory replied.

"How long did you have that tattoo for?" Ace asks curiously.

"Three years." She told him as she buys her inner left cheek when looking back at her ex before smiling.

"I had this way back when I was fifteen." Glory stated as she stared at her heart tattoo.

"I wanted to make a tattoo that feels memorable for me. So I made this as my tattoo. It symbolizes how much I trust my ex on a deeper level." She explained while grinning fondly a bit. Ace, Grim, and Deuce grimace when they remembered Glory telling them about her ex boyfriend yesterday at the kitchen.

" "Princess" is what he called me during our relationship...and it's been stuck with me ever since." Glory informed.

"Cliche as hell." Ace rolls his eyes with Glory giggling a bit.

"As cliche it sounds, it couldn't be help. Ever since then, the word "Princess" in the middle is the word that I cherished deep inside my heart." She explained.

"Makes sense then." Deuce stated and Glory nods before averting her eyes with a slight frown.

"...But now it's meaningless cuz he's longer the man I know." Glory muttered. Ace and Deuce stared at her with sympathetic looks.

"Pfft. Forget about that jerk, Glory. You're better than that. Man up." Grim bluntly reassured with Glory giggled a bit and smiled softly at him.

"I know Grim. I'll be fine." She assured him. Soon, the knock came from the door again snapping out of Glory's thoughts.

"Welp, I better get the door. Cater's probably waiting for us. Let's go guys!" Glory chirped snapping out of the minds from Ace and Deuce.

"Uh yeah, I got it!" Deuce utters.

"Yeah I'm coming." Ace casually replied. As they all went to the door, Glory opens the door to reveal Cater who is standing in the doorway.

"G'morn- WHOA! Glo-chan, you look hot!" Cater compliments and Glory giggles.

"Thanks."

"No prob. Anyways, did you enjoy your sleepover? Was it an evening of pillow fights and card games?" Cater asks and Ace let's out a yawn.

"Good morning, Cater. Yeah, we played cards. But Grim didn't know the rules so we just played Old Maid." Ace informs.

"Crap! I couldn't win at all!" Grim complains.

"You have no poker face when you pull the Joker." Deuce points out making Glory giggle.

"You really sure suck at card games, Grim." She remarks.

"Shut up, I should've won!" Grim retorts.

"But you lost." Deuce points out, but Grim pouts and turns his head.

"Whatever." Grim scoffs.

"Hehe, how about you Glo-chan? How's Photography club?" Cater asks curiously.

"It was fun actually. The people there were quite nice and made a new friend." Glory replies.

"Eh? New friend?" He asks confusingly blinking his eyes twice.

"Mhm his name is Rook." Glory told him shocking him.

"Ehh?! You've became friends with Pomefiore's vice leader? When?!" He asks while still shocked.

"The photography club told us to take pictures of the garden at Pomefiore and that's when I met him and we exchanged numbers." Glory informs.

"Damn, that was quick!" Cater remarks.

"Haha, see? I told you she was a-"

"Ace, we're not bringing this up again." Glory seethes cutting him off with a dagger that she pull out from her backpack making him flinch.

"Ack! Ok never mind!" Ace surrenders as Glory grins and puts the dagger in her backpack.

"Wow, temperamental. Anyway, let's go get the tart you made yesterday and apologize to Riddle. There was some trouble yesterday, so I'm low on man power and I need you to come now." Cater advises.

"Man power?" Ace asks confusingly, but Cater shakes his head and smiles.

"Talking to myself. Well the, let's get going to the Unbirthday Party!" Cater exclaims as they all nod and left to the dorm where they all head straight to Heartslabyul dorm.

—————————
While on their way to Heartslabyul dormitory, everyone was still on their heels and frightened by Glory's presence as always when she and her friends were walking past them.

"Oh god, it's Gothel's blood!"

"Here she comes!"

"Don't let her trap you into her scary tower!"

While everyone mutters about Glory once again, the ravenette have the slightly care about their assumptions this time as she already heard this so many times yesterday to the point where she became unfazed by the unnecessary rumors about her. Her friends notice their whispers where Deuce and Ace glares at the rude students from different dormitories who were making assumptions about her. Grim was even ready to burn them off. Tired of the same ole schtick from yesterday, Glory stops her tracks along with her friends.

"If you're going to stand there and criticize all day, you better stop now because let me tell you all...."

Glory then spun her head to the rude and obnoxious students with deep grey eyes that gleams with sincerity.

"We may look the same, but that doesn't mean I'm going to be like her. Remember that." Glory reassures leaving the students stunned as she turns her head away tugging her raven locks under her right ear and walks off like a boss. Her friends, Cater, stroll after her with Grim blowing a raspberry at them and huffs while holding on to her shoulder.

However, most of them were intrigued by her new look including the dorm leaders and vice leaders. Especially when she told those obnoxious idiots who were judging or making assumptions about her.

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

***Play this video^(I found this music to be suiting for Glory when she strut through the halls with her friends while receiving attention from the dorm leaders and vice leaders from different dormitories. Let me know what you think in the comment section below^^)***

Glory notice their stares and didn't mind as she turns to a trio from the Pomefiore dormitory where vice leader, Rook Hunt, tilts his hat as a polite salute while a small boy with short lavender hair stares at the gorgeous ravenette in awe. Their dorm leader on the other hand, Vil Schoenheit, was smiling intriguingly as he admires her beauty. Glory forms a grin and stops to turn to them. She bows her head and curtsied them just like how Vil did when he greeted her back at the entrance ceremony. Vil, of course, bows his head back to her with a polite smile. Afterwards, Glory turns her heels walks off with her friends following her from behind.

"Damn, looks like those Pomefiore guys are starting to take a liking towards you." Grim whispers who is hanging on to her shoulder.

"Hmmm maybe so..." She mutters.

While walking past them, she cross paths with second trio from the Savanaclaw dormitory. The same wolf guy from the cafeteria gazes at her with astonishment, the same short hyena from the botanical garden was also captivated by her stunning beauty before glancing to the left to notice Jack and let's out a snicker causing the wolf to be flustered and whip his head out of embarrassment. Leona on the other hand, was staring at her with bored eyes until Glory mimics his smug that he gave her from the entrance ceremony and yesterday at the botanical garden before she flashes him with wink. The lion blinks and folds his arms as he smirks back at the bold and cheeky ravenette.

"Wow, those three guys look intimidating..." Grim whispers, but Glory whispers nonchalantly and smiles.

"Meh, you'll never know." Glory assures.

"Jeez Glo-chan, you have those big and wild Savanaclaw boys wagging their tails at you!" Cater shrills making Glory giggle.

"I guess so. But for now, let's see how things will turn out." She reassures making Cater, Grim, and her friends go 'eh' and blink in astonishment. As they stroll through the halls, they soon cross paths with a duo from Scarabia, who were staring at her in awe. Glory smiles warmly and salutes to Scarabia's dorm leader, Kalim Al-Asim, just like he did at the entrance ceremony. Kalim blinks his eyes, but grins with approval nevertheless with his aide and vice leader, Jamil, giving him a baffled look before looking back at Glory with an inquisitive expression.

"Psst, told ya she's a guy-magnet." Ace whispers to Deuce.

"Mhm." Deuce nods.

"Hehe. Not wrong there..." Cater mutter while sweat dropping.

"Yeesh..." Grim sighs while looking back.

While strolling pass the Scarabia duo, they find themselves crossing paths with another trio from the Octavinelle dormitory where dorm leader, Azul Ashengrotto, smiles alluringly with his blue eyes gleam with temptation along with his twin assistants, Jade and Floyd Leech, were also captivated with the beautiful and brazen ravenette. Glory notice their beguiling stares and smiles coyly at them where Glory flashes a wink at them; just like how Azul did to her back in the entrance ceremony. This arouses Azul as he adjust his glasses smiling back at the gorgeous ravenette watching Glory and her friends walk pass him and the twins, who are genuinely enamored with the enchanting ravenette while watching them pass.

"Even the Octavinelle dorm took interest of you?!" Deuce and Ace shrills in shock.

"Glory, are you using some kind of enchantment spell?" Grim questions looking worried at this point, but Glory laughs it out and shakes her head.

"Certainly not. Like I said before, I want to look kickass for the party and I upgrade my hair. As well as my eyeshadow and now I'm wearing lipgloss." Glory reassures and Cater chuckles.

"You do look kickass. Besides, that new hairstyle of yours looks good on you." Cater compliments and Glory grins.

"Thanks Cay." Glory replies and Cater winks flashing a peace sign.

Lastly, there was Diasomnia dormitory where she spotted a trio of Diasomnia students glancing on where Lilia is grinning in amusement while the two soldiers, Silver and Sebek, were giving her the stink eye. Glory didn't bother to pay attention to Sebek and Silver as she gives Lilia a genuine smile and waves at him. And of course, the adorable little fae smiles and waves back at her while watching them pass by.

Once they pass the dorm leaders and their vice leaders, Glory and her new comrades strut through the halls to the mirror where she is no longer the girl known as "Princess" or "Cinderella". No, this girl in front of you is now known as Gloriane Corbett. The girl who is moving on from her ex and begins her path to independence as a beast-taming healer. While strolling along, Glory's grey eyes glint with a brand new determination where this is a new chapter for the newly improve Gloriane.

Watch out Riddle Rosehearts, I'm coming for you and this time.....

.....

.....

I will prove to you and everyone in this whole school that I am no way close to Gothel....as I am Gloriane Corbett. The girl who will show everyone that me and Gothel are two different people.

She thought while strutting her way to the Heartslabyul mirror. Once they arrived at the mirror, they travel to Heartslabyul dorm where the clash between the infamous queen and the reincarnation of Gothel begins.

————BONUS SCENE————
Right after they left to Heartslabyul dorm, footsteps are heard from behind and Lilia turns around to see their dorm leader.

"Hm? Did something happen?" Malleus asks curiously.

"Oh you just watch the most iconic glorious scene ever." Lilia cheerily remarks, but he didn't understand and tilts his head.

"I'm not following what you're implying, Lilia." The horned fae said baffled by his words.

"My lord, you must be careful around that girl. She's the descendant of that evil crone!" Sebek warns him.

"Sebek, calm down." Silver cease him.

"Don't tell me what to do Silver! I'm telling you Lord Malleus, that girl is going to be the next- Ow!"

Sebek was soon cut off when Lilia bonks his head.

"Oh cut with that nonsense Sebek, just because she looks like Gothel doesn't mean she's going to be like her. Besides, you'd saw me talking to her at the cafeteria yesterday correct? She's quite a doll and a very kind lady." Lilia reassures.

"But you'll never know when she's going to reveal her true colors, Lilia! I'm only doing what's best for you and for Lord-"

"Enough Sebek. I don't need hear anymore of this." Malleus halts.

"But-"

Malleus gives Sebek a serious expression as a sign to stop talking. He got the message and gulp where he become silent. Afterwards, Malleus turns to Lilia and Silver.

"Anyways, let's get to our class. We don't want to be late." Malleus reminds them.

"Understood." Lilia replies with a kind smile.

"Yes, my lord." Silver bows his head.

"Affirmative, my lord!" Sebek affirms with a salute.

"Then let's go." Malleus commanded as the Diasomnia students stroll through the halls with the students shiver when stand in his presence.
