Episode 2-28: The Second Chance

While in the stadium, Riddle and the others came forward to the headmaster when Crowley was about to disqualify them from this year's Magift tournament.

"Mr. Rosehearts? And you all are..."

"Yes. They are all the victims in the accidents." Riddle informs him.

"Headmaster, as the victims we have a request to ask of you." Trey suggests.

"Could you please refrain from disqualifying Savanaclaw and have them play in the tournament? We know what they did was wrong, but at least give them a second chance. Leona did admit it after all." Glory pleads.

"What is this now? Are you saying...to let them off?" Crowley ask curiously.

"You guys..." Ruggie mutters.

"No, we're not letting them off." Jamil retorts.

"If Savanaclaw doesn't play then we can't get the payback we so crave." Trey explains.

"Eh, eeeehhhhh!?" Ruggie shrills.

"Payback!?" Jack shrieks and Glory let's out a low giggle.

"That's fair enough." Glory accepts shocking both Ruggie and Jack.

"Wha!? Kitten!?"

"Wildcat! Wtf!?"

They both scolded with frowns on their faces before Glory turns to them with a smirk.

"While I do sympathize with you three, but let's not forget about the incident back at the courtyard yesterday." Glory reminds shocking everyone in the stadium as she turns her head to the hyena with a side smile freaking Ruggie out with Leona and Jack turn their heads confused.

"R-Ruggie-senpai?" Jack ask him with a confused look.

"Do I really need to know what you did to her?" Leona ask skeptically.

"Umm well..." Ruggie utters as Glory let's out a soft giggle and folds her arms.

"Do ya really wanna know Leona~?" Glory dares with a smirk. Leona slowly widens his eyes and immediately shoots a death glare at the hyena.

"Ruggie..." Leona growls lowly at Ruggie with the hyena sweatdropping in response.

"Gaahh...." Ruggie was on the edge of his seat when cornered but soon things got worst when a red aura emits from the background when they all turn to see Riddle sending daggers at Ruggie that scares the living shit out of his friends and everybody in the stadium.

"What did you do Ruggie?" Riddle ask with a menacing tone.

"Eek! Riddle calm down!" Cater yelps holding him back.

"Easy there! Riddle! You've just fought Leona!" Trey reminds him. Though fuming, Riddle clench his fists before sighing. Then he takes a moment to calm himself down and cross his arms.

"Personal squabbles involving magic are prohibited on campus." Riddle informs.

"Magical shift is a well respected sport, right?" Trey ask curiously with a sly smirk.

"However, it is also known as a field where you can have an all out magical battle...You know." Trey slyly explains. Glory looked stunned when she sees this side of Trey, but...she enjoys it and smirks.

"So this is a revenge game isn't it? You sly little demon~." Glory remarks slyly intrigued with Trey's hidden sly nature making him chuckle and cross his arms.

"I might be a calm and composed man that everyone sees, but they have to know that I won't hold everything back Gloriane-san. This is a game of Magift after all." Trey informs her with Glory nod and giggles.

"That I could get on board with, so yes. Let's shall." Glory perks up as she cracks both of her fists ready to go.

"Yeah. I won't get any closure if I don't get at least one hit on you guys." A Heartslabyul resident said.

"Time for battle! Pick up the glove!" A Pomefiore student exclaims.

"I don't know what happened to you all, but Savanaclaw looks to be in worse shape than all of us." Jamil points out with a smirk.

"Since we know who the culprit is, I think getting rid of our grudge with a game of magical shift is rather convenient." Trey informs.

"Leona, didn't you say something before! About how during the game you can use any attack without violating the rules." Cater ask slyly.

"Normally it would be off with your head for using our traditions to settle personal grudges but...This is what Trey and the others wish. I'll turn a blind eye this once." Riddle informs.

"I understand how you must be feeling. However, I'm not sure whether or not Savanaclaw can be in the tournament like this. Especially you, Mr. Kingscholar, can you even stand right now?" Crowley ask curiously.

"Hmm...hmph, hahahahaha!! Don't underestimate me, Crowley. I could take on some wounded herbivores in sleep." Leona boldly proclaims.

"Those are big words." Jamil remarks with a grin.

"I have zero intention of apologizing. If that's what you want then force me on the field." Leona cockily declares.

"Really? You wanna test that, Lion?" Glory questions with a sly smirk crossing her arms as she approaches to him until she gets into his face, but Leona wasn't fazed and smirks back at her with his arms crossed.

"Heh. You think you can outwit me, Lioness?" Leona snarks back making her giggle.

"Boi I can outwit you anytime. Besides, I'm not the only one who is gonna be your ass. They are." Glory points out.

"Oh well see about that, cuz we're gonna kick your ass." Leona boldly proclaims.

"Not if I kick yours." Glory snarks back.

"Heheh cheeky Lioness are you?" Leona chuckles.

"Oh trust me boi, I've been training every week and I'm telling you I won't hold back." Glory reassures.

"Heh we'll about that, Lioness. I won't go easy on you." He retorts.

"Same with us, Lion." She sasses back as both of them exchange competitive daggers. Trey chuckles and turns to Crowley.

"There you have it, Headmaster. Are you alright with this?" Trey ask curiously.

"My goodness. I'm a fool for thinking you would have some impressive speech prepared. Alright, I shall allow Savanaclaw to play in the tournament as planned. As the headmaster I'd also like to avoid having something like this be broadcast to the world on the day of the tournament." Crowley said.

"Wow what a great guy you are." Glory sarcastically remarks making Crowley clear his throat.

"Well then, the audience is waiting for all the players to present themselves. Better get ready." Crowley reminds them.

"I should get going...Grr, Crap, ow." Leona winces when he looks down to see Ruggie pinching his arm.

"...Just do you know, I haven't forgiven you or anything." Ruggie grumbles.

"Is that so?" Leona mutters.

"But...how to put this? I never want to see you make a miserable face like that again. The arrogant smirk you usually have suits you much better...Like this! Laugh with me!" He chants causing Leona to smile widely freaking everyone out.

"Aahh Yup. This takes me back." Glory dryly remarks.

"Oww owow! Wah dah hell, Raffie!" Leona rants.

"Shishishi! Ay, awayz whated to traye dis onse oh nyou!" Ruggie chuckles as the sneaky hyena starts controlling him.

"Stahp righ nahw!" Leona yells making Glory giggle.

Now that's what I called payback.

Glory thought while giggling at Ruggie controlling Leona.

"What are you doing?...Heh." Jack chuckles and Glory notice this.

"Awww someone is smiling.~" Glory coos freaking him out.

"I'm not smiling or anything! You guys really came through for us. Thanks to you, I can give it my all too." Jack said with a smile and she smiles back.

"Glad to hear that you can achieve your goal now, Jack." Glory compliments making Jack blush slightly.

"...S-Sure.." Jack mutters while stroking his head awkwardly.

"From here on out we're rivals. We won't pull any punches." Riddle said with a grin.

"Wouldn't have it any other way." Jack replies with a genuine grin.

"Hold on just a minute everyone." Merlin halts.

"Hm?" Crowley looks at Merlin with a puzzled look as him, Glory and the others see Merlin picking up the sword with ease. Then carries it and flats his way towards Glory while examining the sword.

"Hmm...it's been a long time that I've seen this sword." Merlin mutters as the sword reverts back to its dagger form.

***Glory's upgraded dagger^***

Glory grabs her dagger and takes a good look where she widens her eyes.

"Well that was a new design." Glory remarks as the boys came up to her and gaze at her upgraded dagger.

"Holy damn, nice upgrade on your blade Glor!" Ace compliments.

"Such awesome detail on the dagger!" Grim shrieks.

"When did this happened?" Deuce ask curiously. Glory shrugs her shoulders.

"Don't know. Just happened today." Glory told them.

"Just today?" Jack ask confusingly.

"That quick!?" Trey and Cater shrilled.

"Odd." Jamil remarks.

"I'll say." Lilia agrees.

"You gotta be kidding me." Leona mutters.

"So that's what the Excalibur looks like?" Ruggie tilts his head.

"But wait. The Excalibur wasn't a dagger, it was a sword! How did you get that to work Bunny!?" Riddle exclaims. Glory grips and shakes when she looks back two nights ago when Vivien lays something in the water that causes to glow before crawling back to reality when she realized what she did.

"No way...." Glory gasp out of realization.

"Hmmm..." Merlin took a quick minute to gaze at her upgraded dagger before glancing at Glory

"Sundrop. You know what this means right?" Merlin ask making her puzzled.

"What do you mean?" Glory ask nervously. Merlin chuckles and lays his hands on her shoulders.

"My sundrop. What you're holding is the legendary weapon, Excalibur. Centuries ago that if one wields the Excalibur with a pure heart, then one shall become ruler of the world. Meaning...."

Merlin then points his staff at Glory with a bright smile.

"Gloriane Corbett. You shall become the Queen of this world..or should I say, Twisted Wonderland." He declares as Glory stood there with her eyes widen in shock along with the others.

"Eh...Eh...EEEEEEEHHHHHHHH!?!?!" Glory shrills along with everyone else in the stadium.

"WHAAAAAAAAAAATTTTTT!?!?!" All the boys screamed out of shock.
