Episode 2-22: The Festival

While sleeping, all of the sudden the sound of bones rustle nearby causing Glory to waken up from the sleep.

"Mmm...Wha?" Glory mumbles as she slowly got up and pinch her temple.

"When did I have shac-. What the-!?" Glory shrieks and backs away when she saw Zazu trapped in a cage made out of bones.

"Zazu!" Glory gasps as she recognized this scene from the Lion King. Glory glance upwards to see the infamous rogue of a lion himself, Scar lying on a rock gazing at his nails with a bored look.

"Do stop Zazu, you're bringing the mood down." Scar rebukes unfazed by his struggle.

"Oh, I'd never have to do this with Mufasa..." Zazu mutters, but the lion heard his whispers and pounce on him.

"What? What did you say?! I am the king!" He snarls at him leaving the poor hornbill quivering in fear.

"Poor Zazu..." Glory mutters sending the hornbill her sympathy. Soon she heard footsteps from the right as she turns to see the three hyenas marching towards him with irked looks.

"Hey Boss, we gotta bone to pick with you." Banzai hisses.

"There's no food, no water! And we're starving!" Shenzi rants. However, the lethargic Scar doesn't bother helping them and face the wall.

"I don't care. Ohh, eat Zazu." He orders making the hornbill panic.

"What!?" He shrieks causing her to sweat drop.

Oh god, I remembered crying this scene as a child because he told them to eat the bird....

Glory thought before letting out a giggle.

"Those were some good times." She mutters while grinning at her childhood memory. Soon she turns back to see the three hyenas whispering about Scar.

"Things were better under Mufasa." Banzai whispers, but Scar overheard his mutter and lashed them out.

"Hmph, is that so. You're an eyesore! Get out!" He roars at them causing them to flee.

"Uhoohoohoo!" Ed hoot laughs as the dream ends here leaving Glory pondering about the dream.

"If you're gonna get angry when people compare you, take your job seriously." Glory mutters.

Today's the day, it's the Magift Tournament where Glory got up early in the morning to get change for the tournament. While Glory was about to get ready, she yelps when heard the door open and turns around to see Jack.

"Hey...Get-! Gah!" Jack shrieks and his face flushed when he sees Glory in her red nightgown. Panicked, she quickly grabs her robe to cover herself while flustered as Jack cover his eyes with his arm and grabs the doorknob.

"M-My bad! Sorry!" Jack apologizes before slamming the door shut out of embarrassment. While out in the halls, Jack stood there covering his face while heating up from what he just saw.

Calm down Jack, you didn't do it on purpose. You didn't knew she was changing.

He thought as he lets out a sigh and strokes his hair.

"Damn. First I was force to team up with other people that I must not rely on and now I accidentally step into a girl's room? What else is going to happened next? Boobs landed on my face?" He mumbles.

"Oooo is there a wolf in a dorm?"

"Huh?" Jack turns around to see the chubby ghost and the stubby ghost with the biggest grins.

"Cuz wolf I'm looking at is naughty!~" Chauncey teases.

"Hehe how bold!" Langston jokes making him flustered and smokes coming out of his ears once more.

"It's not what it looks like! I'm not like that! It was an accident!!" He shouts while blushing.

"Eh? What's going on up there?" Soon Grim marches up stairs with a curious look.

"Grim, I-"

"Will you stop messing with him?" Soon the ghosts were cut off by Glory when she opens the door revealing to wear a maroon shoulder crop dress with two gold necklaces around her neck and black thigh high boots.


She then let's out a sigh and smiles at Jack.

"Hey Jack. You came early. What's up?" Glory ask curiously.

"I came during my morning run. Today's the magical shift tournament. I couldn't let you oversleep." He said.

"Well that's very nice of you Jack, but you don't have to worry about me cuz I'm an early bird." Glory reassures.

"Huh, that makes us two then." Jack said with a grin.

"Also sorry about barging into your ro-"

"It's fine Jack, just knock the door next time when you come visit. Kay?" Glory reminds him.

"...Yeah." Jack awkwardly replies while stroking the back of his head with a slight blush.

"Ah! That's right! We gotta catch the culprit so Ramshackle Dorm can get out prize, entry into the tournament." Grim shrills as Glory smiles and flips her hair back.

"Well then, shall we go?" Glory ask as they both nod. Glory grins and turns to the chubby ghost.

"See you guys, be sure not to cause trouble while we're out. Kay?" Glory reminds them.

"Bye Glory!" Langston waves his arm with a grin.

"Have fun at the tournament!" Chauncey cheers.

"Thanks!" Glory said.

"Hmph...See you at the stadium. Don't you dare go back to sleep." Jack reminds making her roll her eyes.

"Like that would happened. See you there." Glory grins as she, Grim, and Jack left the dorm and went there separate ways.

Meanwhile at the festival.

"Hmmhmm. Attendance is high again this year. I must keep an eye on the sales for each food stall as well." Azul mutters before grinning.

"As along as I'm the manager for this even you won't be able to get away with altering the books. Fufufu." He chuckles.

"Dorm Head, preparations on the coliseum has been completed. Players will make their entrance in ten minutes." Jade informs.

"Jade, Floyd. Thank you for your hard work." Azul thanks them.

"Hey hey, Azul. Why are the players entering from the East Building? The people trying to get in are lined up like barnacles. It's impossible to walk through." Floyd whines.

"It was a request from a certain person. I didn't ask for Gah details but..."

"Aah, now I see. That's why you were busy making a potion to increase one's magic the other day." Jade understood.

"Eeeh. What do you see? The entrance and a potion are connected at all." Floyd pleads, but Jade covers his mouth with his finger.

"Shh...We can't allow anyone to hear. Lower your voice." He whispers.

"Ah, are we after something bad?" Floyd ask with a grin looking excited.

"However, that potion will only last for 30 seconds at most. I wonder what he plans to do." Azul questions.

"Azul. You already know what is about to happen, do you not?" Jade ask curiously.

"Who knows. I wonder what's going to...fufufu." Azul chortles.

"Eeeh. What is it~ Tell me~" Floyd begged.

"Fufu. I was thinking about getting some brand new equipment for the lounge, so it works in my favor. Once we're done, this will be our chance of meeting my precious lovely glofish." Azul informs letting out a chilling chortle.

"My, my, aren't you a sneaky one." Jade compliments.

"Whaaa can't wait! I gonna hug my cute lionfish and squeeze her all day when we meet her!" Floyd squeals gushing over squeezing his adorable Lionfish.

"Let's end the pointless conversation here. Time is money. Next we need to go to the drink booths...." Azul suggests where things are going to get intense up in this festival.
