—————

Meanwhile at the Mostro Lounge, waiters are bustling through the lounge and guests are chittering as always. While sitting with the boys, Merlin, and Vivien, Rapunzel and her friends are awestruck by the oceanic decor and the esthetics.

"Wow...just look at the decor and the esthetics! It's like we're in a fancy restaurant except with an oceanic twist!!" Rapunzel chirps with eyes sparkling with awe along with Pascal.

"This is indeed aquatic. They even have an aquarium too." Vivien points out while gazing at the aquatic decor with a fascinated grin.

"But also a place where you can unwind." Merlin points out while chilling on the couch.

"Haha I'll say. I could take you on a dinner date." Eugene suggests and Rapunzel giggles.

"Anytime." She replies and Azul grins with satisfaction.

"We're flattered that you're pleased with the esthetics in our dorm, your highness." Azul replies.

"I can't believe I'm in their underwater domain..." Riddle grumbles lowering his head with Trey patting his back to calm him down.

"Easy Riddle, I'll order a dessert for you to cheer you up." He reassures.

"Omg there's a variety of foods you can have and they look Magicamable!!" Cater squeals.

"Aaahhh I wanna eat the fried fish sticks again!!" Grim chirps with his mouth watering for food.

"Deuce, what are you ordering this time?" Ace ask while holding the menu.

"I'm getting the drink first." He replies.

They're still on the points crap again....

Jack thought shaking his head at the A-Deuce duo.

"Tch. They're so much noise in this damn place. I can't believe I'm going to that Octo-Punk's fishy domain again." Leona grumbles.

"Hey, you said it yourself. Let's get this over it." Ruggie reminds him. Then he looks back at the menu.

"But damn they have some good food yet it's so expensive..." Ruggie mutters sulking at price. On the other hand, Cassandra looks wary when she doesn't see Glory nor the leech twins anywhere. Suspicious, Cassandra turns to the octopus with a scowl.

"Ok fess up, Azul. Where's Glory and your twin posses?" She directly demands.

"Be patient dear Cassandra, the twins are taking good care of her and she'll be out for a second. And don't be too blinded by her appearance, because she's nothing but a beautiful, strong, gentle, and talented woman." He reassures with a genuine smile.

"For once I agree."

"Hm?" Rapunzel and her friends spun their heads to the lion when he opens one eye at them.

"Listen, I don't know much of your backstories, but let me tell you straight. She may look like your mom or adopted mom, but she isn't like her so get that through your brains and watched carefully." Leona bluntly but reassuringly advises them.

"Huh??" They all baffled by his blunt reassurance.

"I agree with Leona. I've been there before and I wasn't proud. So I would do the same thing if I was in your shoes." Riddle informs them before smiling gently at them.

"Because I can assure you, she's not as bad as you think." Riddle reassures them. The three of them remain speechless but also thought about what they said to them including Azul. Soon footprints have appeared when Cassandra and the others turn to see the Leech twins sauntering to Azul.

"Azul, she's all dressed up." Jade informs.

"And she looks pretty in that dress we've brought for her!" Floyd glees.

"Excellent." He replies. Suddenly the lights went off shocking and exciting the guest.

"Omg it's her! Our goddess!!" The Heartslabyul student shouts.

"Get your flyers and glow sticks on!!" The Pomefiore student reminds them.

"Goddess! Goddess! Goddess! Goddess! Goddess!!" As the fan boys chant her name, all of them sweatdrop and groan at the voice and sight of the fan club.

"She sure has a crowd of fans..." Rapunzel mutters.

"That's because she has been popular last weekend when she performed a sexy song at the Mostro Lounge the first night." Cater explains.

"Don't remind me of that!!" Riddle shrieks with flushed look.

"Please..." Jack mutters while blushing from reminiscing her performance last week.

"Shishishi! The wolf is blushing beet red for his wildcat!" Ruggie teases get this made it worst for the wolf and spun to the playful hyena.

"Ruggie-senpai! Don't!" Jack barks while heating up.

"Ugh Jeez. Those damn herbivores are making worst when chanting." Leona groans with his ears wince from the loud noise.

Cassandra looks perplexed until Jade leans to her ear.

"I would take a closer look at her if I were you. After all, looks can be deceiving." Jade whispers. Cassandra didn't say anything kept her eyes glued to the stage and cue the spotlight on Glory where the fan boys are fawn over her appearance, the boys blushed and endeared over her beauty, and Rapunzel's gang are awestruck by her beautiful turquoise mermaid dress with the evening primrose flower on the left side of her head.

With everyone in the lounge fawn over her beauty, a small smile crept from the lion's cheeks.

Not bad.

Leona thought while smiling at his beautiful lioness feeling proud to gave her the flower that adds more to her beauty. On the other hand, Cater took a pic of Glory with a perky grin.

"So Magicamable! She looks so gorgeous in that dress and flower complements her beautiful appeal!" Cater chirps while gushing over his cute angel.

"I know right? She looks like a mermaid!" Rapunzel gasps admiring Glory from afar with eyes gleam Pascal croaked alongside her in agreement. On the other hand, Trey couldn't help but stare at her in awe with a small blush flaring from his cheeks.

"Yeah..." He mutters before forming a gentle smile. Unbeknownst to him, Riddle notice Trey's attraction towards Glory as he squints his eyes dubiously.

Trey's definitely falling for her just like the rest of them, I can tell....

Riddle thought before letting out a sigh.

No I'm better than this. I can't think about this right now. I'll talk to him later once this tour is over.

He ponders placing a plan in his mind while suppressing a sting aching from his heart.

While admiring Glory, an image of her formerly adopted mother reappears in her mind flinching her. Rapunzel quickly shakes her head out of the image and lays her hand on her chest letting out a sigh as her husband lays his hands on her shoulders.

"You ok, Rapunzel?" Eugene ask curiously, but she lays a hand on to his hand and nods lightly.

"I'm fine Eugene..." She replies while grimacing from the image of Mother Gothel. He sighs and Eugene strokes his wife back gently and kiss her cheek.

"Easy honey. Relax. Just enjoy the show." He reassures.

"Indeed your highness. She and Gothel may look the same, but if you and Cassandra look behind the glass then you'll definitely see a different light from her." Merlin encourages.

"Exactly what Merlin said. Just sit back and enjoy the performance so you and your husband could get a good perspective on Moonchild." Vivien reassures with a gentle smile. Hearing their reassurance, Rapunzel didn't say much and only responded with a slight nod as she glance back to the stage. Azul and the twins chuckle softly.

"Everything's going to be fine your highness." Azul reassures with a gentle grin. While Eugene continues stroking her back to calm her down, he looks up Glory before he forms a grin.

"This is gonna be one heck of a performance, right Cass?" Eugene ask but notice her silent expression.

"Umm Cass? You ok?" He ask curiously lookin worried for his close friend.

"I'm fine Eugene...I'm just going to watch." She reassures with her eyes sparkling in fascinated when she witnessed Glory in a turquoise mermaid dress. It's like she's looking at a different person.

As soon as the music starts, Glory starts singing the lyrics from the chorus.

"If all of the kings had their queens on the throne
We would pop champagne and raise a toast
To all of the queens who are fighting alone
Baby, you're not dancing on your own."

And cue the breakdance from Glory as she shakes her hip as soon as the beat drops.

"Can't live without me, you wanna, but you can't, nah-nah-nah."

Glory sang waving his fingers with a coy smile.

"Think it's funny, but honey, can't run this show on your own
I can feel my body shake, there's only so much I can take
I'll show you how a real queen behaves. Oh~"

The boys are enthralled by her harmony.

"No damsel in distress, don't need to save me
Once I start breathin' fire, you can't tame me."

She then points her finger at Cassandra with a smile.

"And you might think I'm weak without a sword
But if I had one, it'd be bigger than yours."

She sang making Cassandra snickering a bit and smiles softly.

"Come on everyone!" Glory commands as she raise her hands up high with the audience mimicking her claps with a few friends following along while most of them watch with proud smiles fascinated by her radiant bravado.

"If all of the kings had their queens on the throne
We would pop champagne and raise a toast
To all of the queens who are fighting alone
Baby, you're not dancing on your own!"

"YEAAH!" Ace shouts.

"Go Glory/Angel-chan/Lionfish/Sundrop!!" Deuce, Grim, Cater, Floyd, and Merlin cheered as Glory sang the next verse.

"GO GLORY-CHAN OUR GODDESS!!!" The fan boys chant while waving flyers and flags in midair.

"Hahaha such a great crowd we're having! Right guys?" Eugene ask turning to his wife and their friends whom both women are speechless as they are struck with awe along with Owl and Pascal, whom the chameleon crept a wide smile already enjoying her performance and with Owl's eyes twinkling in awe. Glory then turns to Riddle with a grin and points at him baffling the redhead.

"Disobey me, then baby, it's off with your head!"

Glory bellows out the first lyrics from second verse slicing her neck with her thumb mimicking the Riddle's signature unique magic causing Floyd, Ruggie, Ace, Grim, Merlin, and Cater to burst out of laughter with Vivien, Jade, Azul, Deuce, and Trey snickering while Leona and Jack suppressed their laughter at her impression of Riddle, but Rapunzel and her friends can hear both of them chortling next to them. Riddle was not amused when she did that, but let's it pass and smiles warmly at her performance.

"Gonna change it and make it a world you won't forget. Oh~
No damsel in distress, don't need to save me
Once I start breathing fire, you can't tame me
And you might think I'm weak without a sword
But I'm stronger than I ever was before."

As soon as the chorus repeats itself, Glory marches her way down to the stage with the guests and the fan boys chanting the lyrics as she sang along while strutting towards her friends, Merlin, Vivien, and Rapunzel's gang.

"If all of the kings had their queens on the throne
We would pop champagne and raise a toast!
To all of the queens who are fighting alone
Baby, you're not dancing on your own."

The audience chants as soon as she approaches her friends, her mentors, and Rapunzel's gang. She shoot them a warm and reassuring smile and extend her hand out to the King and the royal captain of the guards stunning him, his brunette wife, and their sword-wielding friend.

"In chess, the king can move one space at a time."

She sang to Eugene and turns to Rapunzel when Glory smiles gently at her and extends her hand to the queen with Pascal croaking with glee with his eyes glimmering with excitement.

"But queens are free to go wherever they like
You get too close, you'll get a royalty high."

With Rapunzel deeply moved by the lyrics, she and Eugene felt a sense of relief and gentleness from the young ravenette. Finally, she turns to Cassandra and lays her hand to her shoulder with a gentle and genial smile.

"So breathe it in to feel alive~."

She sweetly reassures while harmonizing the last lyric. Touched by her gentle kind words, an the image of Gothel fade away from their minds as the woman that they're seeing is a strong and fearless woman known as Gloriane Corbett whose shines her light to them for the first time. Now seeing her in a different light, Eugene chuckles softly and smiles brightly as the two women giggle and smiled along with him.

Her friends and her mentors smiled warmly at their reactions including the Octavinelle boys whom all turn to with satisfied smirks.

"Aaah finally..." Merlin sighs with a warm smile crept under his mustache.

"I knew it, but...." Vivien then crept a gentle smile.

"I'm glad their plan worked..." She said. Soon Glory turns around and marches through the lounge as she sang the same chorus.

"If all of the kings had their queens on the throne
We would pop champagne and raise a toast
To all of the queens who are fighting alone
Baby, you're not dancin' on your own!"

Glory sang and as soon as the beat drops, she sang the outro twirling around through the lounge with her friends and mentors standing up from their feet cheering and applauding her performance. Rapunzel, Eugene, Cassandra then jumped from their seats and clapped their hands.

"Woohoo!!! GO GLORY!!!" Eugene cheers finally seeing her in a different light with a huge bright smile along with Cassandra and Rapunzel. Both of them turn to each other with smiles.

"Killer performance, huh?" Cassandra ask curiously with a small grin and Rapunzel firmly nods.

"Yeah!" She perks with a bright cheery smile as both women let out a giggle. Merlin and Vivien watches them smile as they turn to each smiling to one another happy at the good results. Once the song ends, the guest and her fans start chanting.

"Goddess! Goddess! Goddess! Goddess! Goddess! Goddess!"

Glory giggles and bows her head down as she smiles brightly and waves her hands at the audience.

"Thank you everyone!!!" She shouts with the audience roaring with praises and applauded her performance. As Glory puts the microphone away and steps down from the stage. Rapunzel and the others ran up to her where the queen wraps her arms around her waist giving her a big hug.

"That was amazing Glory!" Rapunzel compliments with a bright grin and Pascal croaked in agreement with a huge smile. Then she releases her as Rapunzel giggles and smiles at her.

"Thanks Rapunzel! I glad you liked it!" Glory chirps.

"Like? We love it! You were a pro back there!" Eugene chirps.

"Yeah. I didn't know you could sing like that!" Cassandra states.

"Hehehe. That's what inspired me to sing. Rapunzel's my role model!" Glory chirps.

"Well I'm not that surprised."

Soon Merlin floats his way to the group along with Vivien and the others.

"You really are a gifted singer, my sundrop. I applaud your performance." Merlin compliments.

"Indeed. You really sounded beautiful, Moonchild." Vivien praises with a smile.

"I agree with you Vivien. Quite a thrilling yet beautiful performance I should say." Jade compliments.

"Agreed. That was excellent and stunning performance you did, Glofish." Azul praises with a huge grin.

"Heheh thanks Azul." She replies.

"Lionfish!!!" Soon Floyd tackles her again with a death hug.

"You were so cool!! I love the part when you mimic Kingyo-chan! That was funny!!" Floyd chirps while hugging Glory.

"OMG that was hilarious!" Ace chuckles.

"Yeah! Now that's what I called comedy gold!!" Grim cackles with the others laughing at Grim.

"She was like "It's off with your head!" Bleh!" Cater reminds mimicking her Riddle impression from a minute ago.

"I mean...you're not wrong about that." Leona said trying to suppress his snicker.

"Pfft honestly, that's so accurate to what Riddle is like..." Ruggie snickers.

"You guys..." Jack mutters.

"Guys stop it!" Deuce scolds at them.

"Now now guys, that's enough." Trey ceases them making Riddle sigh and pinch his temple.

"Yes we get it. She made an impression of me, but I'll let that slide since you did an amazing job at your performance.

"Aah hehehe...thanks Riddle, and Floyd...can you let go of me? ...I can't breathe!" Glory mutters.

"Oi let go of her, she's on the verge of passing out." Leona casually told him and Floyd soon releases her.

"Oops, sorry Lionfish!! Ehehehe!" He cackles.

"It's okay Floyd." She replies with a small gentle smile.

"Aah yes, now that dazzling performance is out of the way. Let's move on to the next dorm!" Merlin proclaims making Glory widen her eyes to remember the guy from Scarabia who barges into the gym before being escorted out by Jamil. Curious, Glory gives Merlin a firm nod.

"Right." She replies as she turns her head to the Rapunzel group, she and the four smiled warmly with Vivien smiling softly at them happy to see them warming up to one another. However, she soon saw a vision of Scarabia when Iman warns Glory and the group about Jamil.

~~~~~~
"YOU SHOULDN'T COME HERE! JAMIL IS A THREAT!!"

Then it's Jamil hypnotizing Merlin.

"Take this advice please go back to where you came from, but please do leave Corbett to me, I need to have a private conversation with her."

Finally it's Glory being hypnotized her after Merlin and the group left.

"Gloriane my dear, do tell and give me all the info you know about this peer you have. Once you do, do me a favor and stay here with me. I want you to help me overthrow that nuisance, Kalim with that interesting power of yours. Understood, my sultana?~"

"Yes master."
~~~~~~~

As soon as the vision ends, Vivien gasps softly and turns to Merlin.

"Merlin."

"Hm?"

Vivien saunters to Merlin and whispers something into his ear that made him blink and bobs his head humming softly making Glory aware that she saw a vision and Cassandra her brows along with Owl staring at them with caution, and the group are puzzled by their conversation. Soon Vivien departs and Merlin turns back to the group.

"Ahem. On second thought, we should skip Scarabia now because of...important matter that I heard from Scarabia." Merlin informs.

"What? Really?" Ace ask looking baffled.

"Yes. I apologized for the abrupt change of plans, but don't fret everyone. The tour will go on." He reassures.

"Well...that's okay, we'll visit there next time." Rapunzel assures him.

"Damn I was really looking forward of seeing Scarabia..." Grim whines.

"Alright everyone, Now follow me to the Pomefiore dormitory!" Merlin proclaims.

"Jeez...this is gonna hurt." Glory mumbles grimacing when she's meeting with the infamous dorm leader of Pomefiore who is jealous of her and has a rocky relationship with.

~~~~Pomefiore~~~~

"Wow! What a gorgeous castle they have!" Rapunzel chirps with eyes gleam with awe and Pascal squealed happily.

"Reminds of the castles we'd saw back in our dimension..." Cassandra mutters.

"Except this one looks old school..." Eugene points out.

"Ugh can't believe I'm actually going around with prissy's dorm." Leona grumbles.

"And who are you calling prissy, pussycat?"

A voice soon irks the crap out of the lion and snaps at the one who made him snapped and that person is Vil Schoenheit.

"YOU WANNA SAY THAT TO MY FACE AGAIN, PRISSY BOY!?" Leona roars ready to pounce and maul his pretty face, but Jack and Ruggie hold him down.

"Leona-senpai! Please calm down!" Jack barks while restraint his dorm leader.

"Oi don't act like an ass for once. Dealing with your temper would be a pain." Ruggie bluntly reminds him. Vil didn't care and huffs sticking his nose to the air.

"My goodness I didn't expect you all to come to my dorm..." Vil snorts then he turns to Glory with a cold look.

"Especially YOU." Vil sneers with a hint of venom coming out of his mouth making Glory roll her eyes unfazed by his jealousy. Rapunzel and Eugene glance each other with their brows curled. Pascal blinks in disbelief and scowls at the rude dorm leader, and Cassandra squints her eyes at Vil with a skeptical look with Owl remaining silent but glares at the dorm leader.

Vil then turns to Rapunzel and the group.

"Also who are these potatoes? I never seen them before." Vil ask curiously offending Cassandra and Eugene, but confuses Rapunzel as she blinks her eyes twice and turns to Leona with her finger pointed at Vil.

"Umm what does he mean by potato?" Rapunzel ask curiously with an innocent expression.

"You do not wanna know." Leona casually assures her.

"Excuse me?..." Cassandra lowly growls with eyes ready to straight up murder him alarming Glory and her friends. Not wanting to cause a fight, Glory, Deuce, and Ace ran up to her where Ace and Deuce held her arms and Glory gets in front of her.

"Cassandra-san! Please calm down!" Deuce pleads.

"Oi chill, Cass!" Ace shouts.

"Easy Cass! Easy! Don't listen to what he says, he doesn't know better!" Glory reassures.

"I'm right here." Vil blankly said. However, this does not sit well with Eugene as he lets out a half hearty laugh while grinning awfully.

"Ah ha ha ha ha. What?" He bluntly retorts furrowing a brow and stomps his way to Vil.

"I think you need to get your eyes checked Blondie. Because I'll have you know that I'm not just a potato, I'm the most HOTTEST baked potato you'll ever seen!" Eugene retorts with a prideful grin and cue the face palms from Glory and her friends.

"Annnnd here we go..." Vivien dryly remarks knowing she sees this coming.

"Eugene!!" Rapunzel scolds at her husband.

"Now's not the time to feed yourself more then you did, Eugene!" Glory seethes pinching her temple.

"Gloriane-san's right. You need to stop provoking him." Trey sternly warns him yet Vil is on the verge of losing his temper.

"A 'Blondie' you say?..." He dryly ask twitching his brow at the irritable captain of the royal guards before letting out a scoff.

"Such ego you have for poor looking potato." Vil snorts.

"A potato with good looks!" Eugene quips back.

"Stop!" Jack barks with an irritable scowl.

"Seriously!!" Grim and Ace chimed in with an irked look.

"Mr. Fitzherbert! Stop this immediately!" Riddle commands with a serious glare.

"That's enough, Mr. Fitzherbert. This isn't a joke." Azul firmly scolds.

"Agreed! You're making it worst!!!" Deuce scolds at him.

"Ne, How old is this guy anyway? Are you sure he's an adult?" Floyd ask looking bored with their conversation.

"Why am I not surprised that we have a second 'Vil' in our group?" Leona ask flatly with a blank look.

"It appears we do have two 'Vils" in this campus for now." Jade sarcastically remarks with a mocking grin.

"You mean twins? Yeah, let's go with that." Ruggie dryly spoke.

"All of you are not helping!" Glory scolds at them with a tick mark throbbing from her head.

"This is getting way too obnoxious!" Grim yelps. Can't stand to see her husband roasting Vil, Rapunzel fan up to him and grabs him by the arm.

"Eugene, stop! Don't be so rude to the dorm leader!" Rapunzel pleads.

"Pfft oh come on honey. What's Blondie gonna do? Beat me up with his girly hands and girlish charms and beauty? Hahaha!!! Oh and FYI, that makeup of yours that you're wearing makes you look like a clown." Eugene roasts before laughing his ass off and that hit the nail for Vil as he can feel his blood boil in his veins and lashes out at Eugene.

"You have some nerve calling me that!!" Vil seethes with a tick mark throbbing from his head.

"Is he trying to get himself to get himself killed!?!" Cater, Ace, and Grim shrieked.

"Annnd there goes my cue." Merlin said as he floats to the group to break up the fight.

"Okay Schoenheit and Fitzherbert. Apologized for breaking into your conversation, but we all must be get going now. BYEE!!!" Merlin shouts.

"Yeah! Smell ya later alligator!!" Eugene wittily snarks with a cocky grin while being pulled away by Rapunzel and Glory.

"Alright Eugene, show's over!!" Glory scolds at him.

"Agreed. You have enough trouble you've caused for today!" Riddle scolds at him.

"Eugene come on! We don't have time for this!!" Rapunzel assures him pulling Eugene away from Vil.

"For love of Great Sevens, he's like a second Vil." Ace mutters.

"Don't say that in front of him..." Deuce whispers.

Once they all left, Vil exhales out and flips his head slowly regaining his refined and composed self.

"Unbelievable. I got out of my dorm to finished my makeup for one hour and all I get is be insulted by an obnoxious potato." Vil grumbles before he lets out a huff.

"No matter, I should get back to the lunch. I do not want to skip my healthy meals. It'll affect my body and I do not want that to happened to me." Vil said as he struts his way out of the dorm and head straight to the cafeteria. Elsewhere, Rook was standing beside the tree this entire time folding his arms with an amused grin.

"Mmm...How interesting~." Rook purrs perking with amusement as his green orbs glint with intrigue. Then he lurks back into the shadows from the tree.

~~~~Hall of Mirrors~~~~

Once they arrived back at the hall of mirrors, Merlin let's out a sigh and glance back at the group.

"Okay. That did not go as I expected." Merlin states.

"Obviously." They all responded.

"Nice one Eugene. Way to left a bad impression on Vil." Cassandra sarcastically praises him.

"Eugene! What the heck were you thinking!?" Rapunzel scolds at him.

"I mean..I really didn't took it that far...." Eugene assures but neither of them are buying it.

"Eugene, you called Vil a clown." Glory bluntly reminds him.

"And Vil-kun looks like he's about to straight up Murder you." Cater points out.

"I'm so sorry for my husband! He'll try to restrain himself!" Rapunzel apologizes. Merlin rubs his temple before letting out a sigh.

"Regardless, lets just move on to the next dorm starting with Ignihyde." He suggest.

"Cool! Can't wait to see what they have there!" Rapunzel chirps.

"Honestly same! So far I've been to dorms during my time here and I'm very curious on what Ignihyde and Diasomnia dorms are like!" Glory chimes in with an excitable grin.

"Alright folks! To Ignihyde!!" Merlin declares pointing his staff.

"Do you have to point your staff every time you announce our dorms?" Leona bluntly ask.

"Just let him be Leona." Glory reassures patting his back.

~~~~Ignihyde~~~~

"Holy moly! Now that's a hellish-looking dorm they have!" Eugene shrieks.

"It's like an underground castle...." Cassandra mutters with widen eyes.

"So this is what Ignihyde looks like huh? Love the skeletons. Definitely gives off Hades vibes." Glory compliments with a grin and took a pic of the dorm.

"Umm Glory, not to be rude, but what's that rectangular shape that you're holding?" Rapunzel ask curiously pointing her finger at her cellphone.

"Oh this is a cellphone. It's where you call your friends and families so you can talk to each through it." Glory explains.

"You can also take pics of it and download apps from this phone right here!" Cater points out holding his phone out.

"What are apps?" Cassandra ask curiously curling her brows.

"Apps or in other words, Applications, are a type of software that allows you to perform specific tasks. Applications for desktop or laptop computers are sometimes called desktop applications, while those for mobile devices are called mobile apps. When you open an application, it runs inside the operating system until you close it." Glory explains.

"Ohh..." They all awed finally understood.

"So that explains the strange snap sounds that we heard." Eugene said and she nods.

"Yeah. I love taking photos. Photography is one of my passions. Not because of taking pics, but because makes me understand people better, getting to know more people, it makes more social and more sensitive, and feel the sadness or anger they hide behind smiles because a picture can tell a lot of things. Photography also makes me creative and productive to practice patience and focus as well as cherishing memories." Glory explains.

"You have a sense of style just like my wife, I love that." Eugene compliments making her giggle.

"Heheh come on stop, let's just continue with the tour." Rapunzel insists.

"Yes before I throw up." Leona bluntly states.

"Yes yes, I get it. Now follow me whippersnappers." Merlin dryly said.

~~~~Ignihyde halls~~~~

"Whoa...just look at all the technology they have! Varian would totally love this!" Rapunzel chirps with Pascal's eyes sparkling with awe.

"No doubt, Varian would definitely go crazy over the technology they have in this campus of yours."

"I'll say, this dorm looks amazing! I absolutely love the decor and the esthetics here! It's like a modern technological version of the Greeks!" Glory chirps while snapping pics from her phone.

"Hmph, visiting Ignihyde takes me back irritable memories." Riddle bluntly states reminiscing back to when he arrived at his dorm to pick him up before the ceremony started. Trey pats his shoulder with a reassuring smile.

"Don't worry Riddle. Just take it easy." He reassures making Riddle huff in response.

"So this is what Ignihyde looks like...." Deuce mutters.

"Damn, They have so many technology!' Grim chirps while clinging on to her shoulder.

"Speaking of which..."

Soon whispers are heard in the halls when the group cross paths with a few Ignihyde students who shaken by the presence of Glory.

"Psst hey...that's Gothel's blood."

"Oh god! Run! Don't let her capture you!"

"Eek! I don't wanna get locked up in a tower!!"

"N-Not to mentioned so much people around here..."

"I better avoid her and those dormitory people."

All of them sighed at the Ignihyde students' whispers that left them unsurprised.

"Typical Ignihyde behavior." Trey sighs.

"Honestly, they're like walking on eggshells for no reason..." Cater mutters.

"And it's not surprising when they talked about you since you're-."

"Reincarnation of Mother Gothel, yes I get it and I'm not that surprised." Glory flatly told them.

"These guys in Ignihyde are quite on edge...." Grim mumbles.

"Ignihyde is known to have students who are knowledgeable with the latest technology and the research of magic they provide in this dorm yet they lacked social skills and they are very socially awkward with other people outside from their dorm." Merlin explains making Eugene chuckle.

"Welp you're not wrong about that. This dorm shouts out 'technology' everywhere! Whoever is the boss around this dorm has to be a total genius like Varian." Eugene boasts.

"That would be my older brother, Idia that you're talking about and you sir, are correct. He is a genius."

Soon they all turn around and blink their eyes to see a young boy with fiery blue hair and a robot suit. This causes Glory's eyes to twinkle in adoration.

Omg he's so cute!!!

Glory thought grinning down at the adorable robot boy with awe.

"Aah Ortho, Good to see you. How's everything in Ignihyde?" Trey ask curiously making the little robot sigh.

"Not good. I tried getting my older brother to come out of his room so we could go to the park together, but..."

"He refused to come out?" Ruggie cuts in finishing his sentence with an unfazed look and Ortho sighs.

"Yeah..." He mumbles with a disappointed look.

"Not surprised. That guy is a stubborn recluse." Riddle curtly said.

"Hell. Mostly everyone in Ignihyde are cowardly introverts." Leona bluntly points out.

"Cowardly introverts indeed." Jade agrees with him with a sneering smile.

"Cowardly isn't the word I would used to describe them, guys." Glory assures with a blank look.

"Awww who's this adorable little guy?" Rapunzel coos with a wide smile crept from her cheeks.

"More importantly are you a robot?" Cassandra ask curiously. The robot perks up and smiles brightly.

"Indeed. My older brother Idia built me and he's the best and smartest brother ever!" He chirps and turns his head to Glory.

"And you must be the girl that everyone's been talking about right? Gloriane Corbett right?" Ortho ask curiously and she smiled warmly at the little robot.

"I am, but feel free to call me Glo, Glory, or Glor, for short. It's a pleasure to meet you, Ortho." She greets him sweetly. Ortho nods and rams up to her legs to hug her hips with a cute giggle. Then he lifts his head with a smile.

"Nice to meet you, Glory-chan! I'm Ortho Shroud! I've always wanted to meet you since everyone in my dorm has been talking about you!" Ortho chirps with stars sparkling in his eyes.

"You've always wanted to meet me?" Glory ask curiously curling her brows.

"Why can't you just go outside and meet with her just what you usually do?" Jack ask curiously.

"Well I wanted me and my brother to meet her, but he doesn't want to..." Ortho said before eliciting a disappointed sigh.

"I really want him to take him outside to play and make some friends, but apparently not." Ortho told them leaving them unsurprised.

Not surprising....

They all thought with deadpan looks.

"And why doesn't he go outside?" Merlin ask curiously.

"Because my brother is afraid of meeting new people and wants to spend his time playing video games." Ortho then scans Glory with bleep sounds coming from his visor until a blink emits.

"You seem to have similar features from Gothel, but your soul is different that I can't identify..." Ortho said as he tilts his head panicking the group when he scans her identity.

"Oh my Merlin!" Vivien shouts.

"Oh Ortho! Have you met Rapunzel and her group? They came from another world!" Merlin ushers causing the little boy's face to widen and spurs his head to Rapunzel and her friends.

"Oh yeah that's right! You are from another world right?" Ortho ask with insightful zen as his attention has turn to Rapunzel and her group where the three are silent before Eugene clears his throat and snaps his finger.

"Yup, definitely a robot!" Eugene firmly shouts.

"Also yes, we're from another world. Merlin and others are here for a tour around your dorm." Rapunzel informs him.

"Oh really a tour!? Around my dorm? That's so fun!" Ortho chirps.

"Yeaaaah about that. What's your brother doing in your room right now?" Cassandra ask curiously.

"He's right. I think it might be a good idea for him to show Rapunzel and her friends around your dorm." Glory suggests, but Ortho sighs and shook his head.

"That would be a good idea, however, as I said before, my brother never comes out of his room and spends his entire time playing games, read mangas, and watch anime in his room all day." Ortho informs them.

"Jeez, does this guy have a life or something?" Grim dryly ask with a deadpan look.

"Why not kick his room and drag him out by force?" Leona bluntly suggests.

"That won't be a bright idea, Leona." Glory retorts.

"Indeed, Ignihyde's students are known to be socially awkward and reclusive individuals. If we do that, then that would leave a bad impression to Glory and the Corona gang." Vivien informs.

"They're right. Therefore, I can't force my brother to come out of his room." Ortho told them with a despondent look.

"And you're not wrong about that. Idia is quite the stubborn loner who always take the easy way out. No matter what we do or what we've say, he'll stick with his decisions and refuse to listen to us." Riddle sternly informs. Glory lays her hand under her chin.

"Aah yes, that poor loner can be such a pain. The only time does come out is when he and I attend the same club together." Azul said with pitiful look.

"Though he seems to be intelligent when it comes to games is what I've heard from you." Jade informs.

"And he's quite troublesome too." Floyd points out sticking his tongue like a child.

"Though I definitely don't blame you. Surrounded by many people that you don't know is quite jarring, but also relatable too." Glory chimes in.

"Yeah, you have a friend who's kinda like Idia. If she were here, I would give out my sympathies for her." Deuce said.

"As do I." Jade agreed. Ortho then sighs and bows his head to them.

"I'm sorry that you guys came all the way here, but I can show you around my dorm if you want." He suggests baffling Eugene.

"You want to show us around?" He ask skeptical and the perky and innocent robot nods.

"Of course! I'm the vice leader after all, so I'm willing to do whatever you can help you and make you guys happy!" Ortho chirps.

"That would be nice of you to do, young Shroud-"

Suddenly an elevator dings cutting of Merlin as the door opens when a young teen boy with fiery blue hair wearing a long sweatshirt and pants walks out of the elevator with a book in his hand.

"Ortho, your brother is-."

As soon as he turns to his younger brother, Idia's eye widen and drops his book when he saw Glory and the gang. Upon meeting her in person, the firey blue haired dorm leader froze before he shivers lightly with a blush flare from his cheeks.

"U-Uhhh..." He stutters while shaking upon meeting the ravenette. Soon Ortho came up to him with a grin.

"Onii-san, you have tourists here in our dorm. I was just helping Gl-."

"ORTHO GET OVER HERE!!!!" Idia immediately wraps her arms around his Android brother and scurries to the elevator where he push the button until a ding came from the door. He scuttled to the elevator and hastily pushed the button. The door opens and bolts to the elevator. Idia stares back at Glory with a panic expression while his face heats up. He winced his eyes as Idia shivers lightly while clinging on to Ortho before the door closed before them. Afterward, Merlin, Vivien, and they gang are left speechless, deadpanned, and dumbfounded.

"Such a impulsive one isn't he?" Merlin ask with a sweatdrop.

"Indeed." Vivien replies, but with an amused smile.

"You know what's up with Idia don't ya?" Ruggie asked dryly.

"If I do, then it'll kill the mood. Especially for a certain two faced eel." Vivien shifts his emerald orbs to the composed twin eel.

"Oya. How cold~." Jade remarks feigning his smile.

"Yet you relish this situation, don't you?" Glory guessed.

"~fufufu~ You know me so well, I can't deny it~." He chuckled while smiling.

"Riiight..." Cassandra mutters still not buying Vivien's statement. While remaining silent, Eugene lift his arm and points his finger at the elevator door.

"Sooo...That's Idia?" Eugene ask curiously.

"The young version of Hades from Hercules? Yes." Glory directly replies with a blank look.

"Yuuup." Ace chimes in.

"Indeed." They all replied in unison.

"Merlin, I believe we should head to the last dorm." Vivien advises and Merlin sighs and nods at him.

"I know that Vivien." He sighs and clears his throat as he claps his hands together.

"Alright everyone, we're heading to the final stop and that would be by Diasomnia!" Merlin proclaims.

"Oooh I'm so excited to see their dorm! I wonder what kind of things they have there? I bet it's gonna be fun!"

"Same here! I actually wanted to see what their dorm is like! I can imagine a fairy esthetic decor at their dorm with a hint of dark flare into the mix!" Glory assumes with a cheery grin.

"Ooooo! I can't wait!" Rapunzel squeals.

"Aaah! I got my phone out and I'm ready to take some awesome pics!!" Glory chirps.

"I can't wait to look at them so I can get some inspiration for my painting!" Rapunzel cheers.

"Kyaaaah!!!" Both of the girls squealed with joy and Pascal croaks in glee. The boys sweatdrop at the peppy duo.

"Welp everyone isn't wrong when they said they're alike." Grim mutters.

"#Twining!" Cater chirps with a cheery grin holing up a peace sign. Jade chuckles and smiles softly.

"Not just them. Angelfish, Moonfish, and Sunfish are similar to one another." Jade reassures.

"Like three pearls in a clam!" Floyd chirps with a toothy grin.

"Ain't that the truth." Ace remarks. Cassandra curls her brow at them with a puzzled look.

What are these guys talking about?...

She thought looking baffled by their conversation.

"Ahem. We'll be one our way now. Off to Diasomnia!!" Merlin declares making Leona sigh with a begrudging look.

"This is gonna hurt...." He grumbles not wanting to see the tall faery himself.

"Just hang on, ok Leona?" Glory reassures making the lion snort and folds his arms with a huff.

~~~~Diasomnia~~~

"Holy spooks! Now that's some sick atmosphere!" Cassandra yelps stunned by the eerie yet enchanting atmosphere of Diasomnia.

"Yup!" Glory chirps as she snaps a picture of the dorm.

"But I love it overall! It gives me Maleficent vibes! Plus the thorns also adds to the mysterious and eerie environment in this dorm!" Glory glees.

"This reminds me of the dark kingdom." Eugene said baffling the group.

"The dark kingdom?" Deuce asks curiously and Eugene turns to them with a grin.

"Yeah. It's where my dad lived. It's far away from Corona back in our world." Eugene told them.

"What was it like there?" Jack ask curiously. Eugene averts his eyes biting his lower lip before he replies.

"It's well...dark, but there is an origin behind the dark kingdom. Ahem. Centuries ago, a single drop of moonlight fell from the heavens and transformed into an opal, carrying the power to destroy and kill all who tried to claim its power. To prevent this from happening, a kingdom was created around the opal, and the rulers took an oath to keep the Moonstone's power from destroying the rest of the world. The responsibility of protecting the Moonstone was passed down generation after generation among the Kings and statues were built for each of the past rulers for fulfilling this duty." He explains.

"And you're father's the current king of the dark kingdom?" Trey asks curiously looking surprised.

"Yup. Welp before that, I didn't know where I was came from cuz I can barely remembered what happened but I do remember that I was being carried by a woman and that's just it. I was once a thief throughout my life until I met Rapunzel, but things have changed when I reunited with my dad at the dark kingdom. I was weird at first, but I slowly came to terms of who I am and made up with my father." He explains.

"My..." Deuce utters.

"Sounds pretty rough." Ruggie comments.

"Yup. I'm glad that I reunited with my dad but I'm also glad I met and fell in love with my lovely bright wife." Eugene expresses making Rapunzel giggled.

"Come on now, you're embarrassing me..." She giggles.

"Even though touched with your story, I believe we should move on to the last dorm." Merlin reminds them.

"Beware Merlin. A faery is approaching on your way." Vivien warns him.

"Eeh?" Merlin curls his brow in confusion.

"Oh god...here comes one of those damn Diasomnia herbivores." Leona grumbles. As soon as footsteps come closer to the group, a familiar voice appears.

"Oh? What this? Shouldn't you be all be at the cafeteria by now?" Lilia ask curiously freaking everyone out when he pops out of nowhere.

"Oh my god! It's a baby faced faery!!!" Eugene shrieks.

"Umm Eugene...I think he's more than just a baby." Cater implies with a sweatdrop crept from his head.

"Holy cow! He just appeared out of nowhere!" Cassandra shouts.

"Fgnya! I remembered the last time I got freaked out!" Grim yelps.

"I'm starting to get flashback from the cafeteria..." Deuce mutters.

"Bleh, don't remind me of that!!" Ace gags cringing from his first encounter with Lilia at the cafeteria as Rapunzel kneels down to his level.

"Are you one of the members of Diasomnia?" Rapunzel asks curiously and the dark magenta streaked haired faery chortles and smiles tenderly at the brunette queen.

"Why of course I am, Miss. The man you're speaking to is Lilia Vanrouge. I'm the vice leader of this dorm as well as the supervisor of Malleus. Please to meet you, young human maiden." Lilia greets him with a friendly smile. Then the ravenette grins warmly at him.

"Hi Lilia." Glory greets him kindly and Leona glares at the adult faery as he lets out a scoff.

"If it isn't one of Malleus's servants." Leona bluntly snorts and Lilia huffs looking down at the lion.

"My my, well you look at that. A lazy lion has appeared right in front of our dorm. How unsightly." Lilia snarks with a sly smirk ticking off Leona.

"What was that faery!?" He snarls causing Jack to interfere and hold him down.

"Leona senpai, please calm down!" Jack ceases him as Leona let's out a low growl and yank himself off from Jack. Lilia then turns his head to Glory.

"Pleasure to see you again, Glorious. I didn't expect your arrival along with the other dorm members." Lilia said as Glory grins.

"That's because we're taking Rapunzel and her gang on a tour so they could be familiar with the place." Glory informs and Lilia nods understandably.

"That explains with the new faces then. Do tell, what place did you come from?" He ask curiously with a smile. Rapunzel grins and curtsied to him.

"Pleasure to meet you Lilia. I'm Queen Rapunzel, ruler of the kingdom back in my dimension in Corona. And this is my husband, Eugene, who is captain of the guards and king, and my best friend, Cass." Rapunzel greets him.

"Cassandra's my name, pleasure to meet you." Cassandra greets him.

"Nice to meet ya, little...baby like...faery?" Eugene ask awkwardly, but Lilia chuckles.

"I'm more than just a baby faced faery as you speak of, but I can assure you that I'm quite older." Lilia reassures and cue the jaw drop from the captain of the guards.

"Whaaaa!? So that means you're a-!"

"Refrain yourself from calling him that, Fitzherbert." Vivien seethes with a calm tone cutting him off from calling him "old".

"Pleasure to meet you all and since you arrived here for a tour, I will gladly guide you to our dorm." Lilia suggests much to their elation.

"That would be great! Thank you so much!" Rapunzel chirps and Lilia chuckles.

"Certainly, your highness." He replies.

"I always wanted to see your dorm, but this is gonna be exciting!" Glory chirps with a bright smile and he grins.

"Likewise. Also I love the flower that you have on your ear. It suits you." Lilia compliments making Glory averts her eyes and blush a little.

"Thanks..." She mutters with a sheepish grin making Lilia chuckle at her cute reaction causing the boys to glare at him and Leona won't sit back and lashes out at the grown faery.

"Can you stop hitting on her and take them to your dorm already?" Leona snaps gruffly.

"Oh my. I didn't know you were the jealous type~." He teases causing his face to go beet red and turns away.

"Just shut up ok!?" He retorts making him chuckle.

"Very well then, follow me everyone." He insists.

~~~~Diasomnia hallway~~~~

As Lilia escorts them to their dorm, Rapunzel's friends and Glory were left in awe by the spooky but enthralling decor and gothic victorian-like design.

"So many candles I love it! Definitely fits the atmosphere!" Rapunzel compliments while admiring the decor of Diasomnia and Glory nods.

"I know right? It's like we're entering Maleficent's castle." Glory chirps with Lilia chuckling softly.

"Funny you should say, dear firefly. The thorn witch was actually Malleus's grandmother." Lilia informs her shocking Rapunzel and her friends except for Glory and her friends and her mentors.

"Whoa really!?" Cassandra shrieks.

That explains the horns then....

Glory thought.

"Huh. I wonder what he and his granny looked like?" Eugene ponders.

"Most importantly I wonder if we could actually meet his great grandmother here?" Rapunzel mutters causing Glory to grimace when she asked that.

Umm...I don't know if you would like to meet her you guys...

She thought with a cringe look. Lilia sighs and shakes his head.

"No not exactly. His grandmother isn't here. Only his grandson is here in this dorm." Lilia told them.

"Is it just you and this 'Malleus' guy here?" Eugene ask curiously.

"Nope. There are two students who are in the same dorm as us. Sebek and Silver are trained soldiers for our young master." Lilia informs. Leona scoffs when the two students are mentioned.

"Sebek really loves to boast about Malleus to no end and Silver is just sleepy herbivore." Leona said.

"Sounds like both of them are an interesting duo." Rapunzel assumes.

"More like an unlikely duo if you ask me." Jade corrects her with a smile.

"They're also part of the horseback riding club. A club that I participated it in." Riddle informs causing Rapunzel to gasp and turns to Riddle with eyes sparkling in awe.

"Really!? You have horses!?" She squeals weirding Riddle out but acts professionally and nods.

"Of course. We have horses for our clubs where we ride horses and groom them." Riddle told her with a grin fascinating the queen herself.

"Wow! That's amazing! Cuz we have a horse named Maximus and he's part of the royal guards!" Rapunzel chirps.

"And when we meant by horse, I mean he's a legitimate member of the royal guards back in our castle in our dimension." Eugene points them out.

"And trust me, he's one heck of a strong horse guard that will kick you in the butt." Cassandra reassures with a grin baffling the boys.

"Ok so you have a horse who's not a rider but also takes charge of the guards while you're gone?" Ace ask curiously.

"Yeah pretty much." Rapunzel and Eugene replied in unison.

"Well I'd be damn." Azul says with an awed look.

"Eeeh? That's weird." Floyd pointed out.

"An equestrian land animal that takes over the role as captain of the guards while you three are gone? That's an odd one." Jade ponders curiously.

"I think it's cool! Besides, a horse has to be a badass in order to be a solider." Glory reassures with a bold smile reminiscing one of her favorite characters from Tangled making Riddle sigh.

"He sounds like one of the horses from our club." He said.

"Eeh? Really? Is he that stubborn?" She asks curiously.

"Very. Neither of the students can't go near that horse because of his stubbornness." Riddle told her.

"Aah yes, that unruly horse that Sebek and Silver talked about just now. One time a student tried to ride on him, but the horse ended up lifting him off the ground and stomped on his crouch." Lilia explains.

"Holy crap, really? That must've sounded painful!" Glory shrills.

"Eek! Sounds frightening!" Grim shrieks while clinging on to her shoulders.

"Brutal, if you ask me." Jack added.

"Ouch." Ace winces.

"That's gotta hurt." Deuce chimes in.

"At least no one got hurt." Ruggie points out shrugging his shoulders.

"And that's why horses are a pain in the asses." Leona bluntly states.

"Honestly I'm not that surprised when that happened since that horse is hard to get along with." Trey said looking distressed when talking about it.

"Even worst when you have your balls smashed up." Cater added.

"Ehehehehehe!!! That was funny!" Floyd cackles.

"My my, that poor unfortunate soul. He must've been in pain." Azul sympathizes yet it's hard for them to tell if he's being sincere or not.

"Was he takes to the infirmary? I mean you are a nurse in our campus." Jade informs causing Merlin to squints his eyes and bits his lower lip under his mustache.

"Yesss....I remembered that quite well... and it was not a pretty picture.." Merlin mutters grimacing at the image of a horseshoe printed on his pants engraving his mind.

"At least you healed him at the end..." Vivien reassures making the tiny wizard let out a sigh.

"Indeed...out of all the injuries I've seen, this is the most scarring..." Merlin informs with a sweatdrop.

"Nevertheless here's our lounge that students like me go to unwind from our class hours." Lilia informs and as soon as they enter their lounge, Rapunzel's friends and Glory went awe when they saw their lounge with a dark yet enchanting atmosphere where green candles are lit everywhere in the lounge, gothic furniture, and an eerie yet alluring throne that gives off Maleficent vibes.

"Oh my goodness! How beautiful!! It's like we've entered the dark kingdom's castle all over again!" Rapunzel squeals with a huge grin along with her pet chameleon who is eyeballing at the Maleficent-like theme antiques.

"Now that's what you called home." Cassandra compliments glancing at Eugene with a grin making him widen his eyes and avert his eyes as a blush crept from his cheeks.

"C-Come on, stop! Don't look at me like that!" Eugene stutters while flustered.

"So this is what Diasomnia dorm looks like..." Deuce mutters.

"Color my stoked, I have to admit. Your dorm looks badass." Ace compliments.

"Plus it's totally Magicamable!" Cater chirps as Lilia chuckles at their reactions.

"I'm pleased to see that you all fond of this place...well minus the lion." Lilia quips with a sly smirk making the lion scoff.

"Shut up." He retorts turning his head away.

"Oya? What do we have here?"

As soon as they heard a familiar voice, they all lift their heads to see the tall fairy dorm head of Diasomnia with dark long hair and emerald green eyes oh and don't forget about the horns too. It makes him attractive.😏

"Hiya Mal!" Glory chirps with a bright smile causing the dorm head to blink his eyes to see the human female ravenette.

"Hm? Titania?" Malleus utters with a surprised look.

"Titania???" Rapunzel, Cassandra, and Eugene inquires with Pascal widen his eyes before creeping a sly smirk.

"You know him!?" The boys all shrieked with shocked looks and Merlin chuckles before he forms his signature sly smirk underneath his bushy mustache.

"Oh yes~. Malleus definitely knows his Titania~. Hehehehe..." Merlin slyly chortles shipping one of his top ships from his list making Vivien unamused with his reaction.

"Merlin, you will not say another word during the entire tour." Vivien dryly remarks with a deadpan look.

"Aaah yeah. Glory mentioned that you have horns! I have to say Tsunotarou, you look really coo-. Mph!?" Soon Grim was cut off when Deuce covered his mouth.

"Oi! Do you want to get burned!?" He whispered softly to him with a frantic look.

"Psst what the hell are you doing, Glor? Are you trying to get yourself killed for calling the Great Malleus as "Mal"!?" Ace screeched.

"He doesn't seem to mind it though." Glory casually said.

"Indeed." Malleus replied.

"Damn, Kitten's full of surprises today! Shishishi!!" Ruggie snickers.

"Fufufu, you're not definitely wrong there." Jade agrees with an amused grin.

"I...didn't know that..." Jack mutters looking shocked.

"Same goes for us...." Deuce chimes while covering Grim's mouth.

"Agreed." The Heartslabyul gang chimes along.

"Eeeh? Never expect Lionfish to be this close to Horned fish-chan." Floyd stated with an unreadable look.

"My my, what an interesting twist." Azul remarks.

Note to self: gain info from Malleus on what makes Ophelia alluring.

Azul thought with a smirk as his blue eyes gleam with craftiness.

I'd lost to a faery in this year's Magift tournament, took my trophy, and now he's getting chummy with Lioness!?

Leona thought with a pissed off expression as he looks like he's about to maul the tall faery. Ruggie notices and snickers.

"What's this? Is the big and strong Leona jealous of Malleus cuz he's friends with Lioness?~" He teases.

"Shut up Ruggie!" Leona retorts with a glare acting like a tsundere lion he is. Unimpressed, Glory rolls her eyes and sighs before grinning back at her friends and the Rapunzel gang.

"Yeah. We're close friends for a while and I have to say. You have a pretty neat dorm! It's quite eerie yet enthralling. Definitely fits the vibe of Maleficent." Glory compliments as Malleus walk down the steps from the stairs.

"Hmm I appreciate the praise that you've given to me, but I didn't expect some guests visiting our dorm; especially the lion from Savanaclaw." He said before he crept a sly smirk. 

"We meet again, second prince of Afterglow Savanna. Did you came here for an invitation?" Malleus teases.

"Tch like hell I would, you damn faery." Leona retorts with the tall faery softly scoffs in response.

"What a shame." He sarcastically spoke and turns to the Rapunzel group.

"By the way, who are you three anyway?" Malleus ask curiously.

"Oh right. Mal, I like you to meet Rapunzel, Cassandra, and Eugene. Guys, this is Malleus, the head dorm of Diasomnia." She informs as the queen curtsies to the faery prince.

"Hello Malleus. I'm Rapunzel, the queen of an another dimension called Corona along with my husband Eugene, who is the king and captain of the royal guards, and my best friend Cassandra is a skilled swordswoman and once a handmaiden ag their castle, but she, Eugene, and I reunited to travel here in our world by using a time portal created by their good friend and royal engineer, Varian, so they can find the new user of the sundrop flower and the moonstone opal-."

"Which happens to be my henchman." Grim points out making Glory roll her eyes but finishes the explanation for them.

"Yup...and that's how it happened." She told him fascinating both Malleus and Lilia as their eyes lit up with awe.

"Aaah so that's how they got here. I must say, that was a long journey that came along. The three of you must been tired." Lilia assumes making Eugene chuckle.

"Oohh yeah. We've been searching for those gems for a few weeks now and thank god we found the answer thanks to monkey brain!" He cheers causing Malleus to tilt his head slightly.

"Monkey...brain?" He ask looking baffled.

"He means Lord Demanitus, but yes. He did helped us and we discovered that the sundrop flower and the moonstone opal are located here in this world or campus..." Rapunzel explains.

"Yeah no wonder why we couldn't find the the gems despite sensing them." Cassandra sighs.

"What do you mean by sensing them?" Lilia ask curiously.

"Raps and I were once holders of the two gems. I used to possess the moonstone opal and Raps used to possess the sundrop flower. However both of gems were removed by Zhan Tiri, whom I'd been manipulated by. But luckily for us, we'd defeated her by smashing the gems together making her disappear into oblivion. Afterwards, Rapunzel saved me and the rest of the world by blasting the two fused gems into space." Cassandra informs.

"And thus, ending the war between us and Zhan Tiri herself." Eugene quips.

"Yet we didn't know that the two gems were send down to another world until years later. We were all shocked to find out that I send them to your world. So Varian built us a portal machine to find the new user and here we are." Rapunzel explains and turns to Glory.

"Night Raven College where the new user turns out to be the reincarnation of my adopted mother..." Rapunzel sheepishly spoke.

"*coughs* *coughs* Aka my biological mother." Cassandra coughs. Glory sighs and pats both of their backs gently.

"Aah I see. That explains the resemblance between the two of you." Lilia said staring at the faces of Cassandra and Glory as if he is staring at twins.

"Fascinating. I know the tales about those two gems from my grandmother, but I didn't know it would be transported to our world..." Malleus hums.

"Yeaaah we didn't know it would happened..." Eugene mutters feeling awkward when talking about this.

"Me too." Glory chimes in.

"Same goes for us." Grim said.

"Yup." The boys agreed.

"I'm surprised that the sundrop flower and the moonstone opal has been existed for centuries now." Azul admits.

"Agreed. It's quite an interesting fact to learn." Jade agreed with him.

"Yeah I thought those gems extinct long time ago, but now I heard about them, I find it fun! Hell, things have became more fun when Lionfish is around and I love it!" Floyd perks up with a toothy grin and pulls her into an affectionate hug.

"Hehehe...yeah." Glory sheepishly chuckles with a sweatdrop as she can feels his arms tightening around her waist. Soon, Leona grabs him behind the collar and pulls him away.

"Oi, what did I say about personal space? Besides, you're choking her here." Leona bluntly reminds him making the erratic eel cackle.

"Sorry!" He perks with a cheery grin. Malleus then nods his head slightly at what they said.

"Mhm. Not only that we've met former users of the two legendary gems, but I've never heard a human that could have the capability to built something so well-thought and creative before." Malleus admits and Lilia nods with a kiddy smile.

"Agreed and that's what makes humans interesting! You couldn't help but love and invest them." Lilia chirps with a cheery smile. Merlin then floats to Lilia and Malleus.

"Indeed Vanrouge and Draconia. Since the three of them are stuck here for awhile, the three of them will be staying at the Ramshackle dorm until they finished what they've been doing. And Crowley being a lazy deadbeat crow of a headmaster, assigned me to take them out on a tour around the campus that way they could be familiar with the place." Merlin informs.

"And this campus is looking great so far!" Eugene perks up with a huge smile and Lilia chortles.

"Likewise your majesty." Lilia replies.

"Reasonable explanation. Though this baffles me. I know that Rapunzel isn't related to Gothel by blood, but if Cassandra is the biological daughter of Gothel, doesn't that make you her-."

"No. It doesn't." Glory directly replies cutting him off with a deadpan look.

"We're not related to each other. I know it's weird to hear, but it's true. I'm Gothel's reincarnation." Glory reassures.

"Hell it's weird to think about it." Grim points out.

"Can you not remind us that? We get it already!" Ace seethes.

"Please." Jack pleads pinching his temple with his ears droop down with a grimace look.

"Ugh...I can feel it crawling back to my head just now..." Deuce mutters cringing at the thought of Gothel having a biological daughter and a reincarnation.

"Don't we all?" Ruggie grumbles while laying his hand on his forehead with a grimace look.

"It's bizarre we know, but hey. It's how life is I guess." Eugene dryly states.

"Life is a complex world we lived in indeed. However, it appears out time is up." Merlin said an turns to the Diasomnia duo.

"Vanrouge, thank you for taking us around your dorm. And it's a pleasure to meet you, Draconia." Merlin thanked them and Lilia chuckles softly and smiles warmly at them.

"The pleasure is all mine, Merlin. I'm pleased to have you people enjoy the tour and I'm happy to meet three new people visiting our dorm." He said glancing at the trio with a grin and they smiled back.

"It's a pleasure to meet you guys and thanks for taking us on a tour around your dorm, Lilia." Rapunzel thanked him.

"Yup and...oooohhh boooy I really need to get some rest." Eugene utters stretching his arms feeling tired already.

"Nice seeing you guys. Have a nice day." Cassandra casually said.

"Will do, fair maiden." Lilia replies as he turns to Glory with a grin.

"Thank you for coming to our dorm, Glorious. Feel free to come over to our dorm if you're free from your classes or bored. We'll welcome you with open arms." Lilia reassures.

Except for Sebek and Silver....

Glory thought with a sweatdrop while grinning at him.

"It's nice to meet you again Lilia and Mal. And thanks for showing us around your dorm. It was nice." Glory replies and both of them grinned back.

"Thank you for visiting our dorm." Malleus politely thanked her with a grin.

"I hope you three enjoy your stay at Titania's dormitory. You're going to need it for the winter." Malleus advises them.

"The winter?" Rapunzel looked baffled.

"Yeah, the winter holiday is coming up and we're going back to our homes to stay with them for the break." Trey explains.

"Except me and the twins. Unlike them, we have to stay at the Octavinelle dorm and we can't go back to the Coral of Sea because of the glaciers roaming above the surface." Azul informs.

"Coral of Sea? You mean the ocean?" Rapunzel guesses.

"Correct you are, your highness. We're merfolk. Merfolks like us are quite sensitive to the cold weather and it'll be troubling for us to go back there, so the three of us are staying here until spring break." Jade explains.

"Besides. No fishes likes a cold weather at the sea." Glory points out.

"Exactly what Glofish said." Azul agrees.

"Welp you made a pretty good point there." Eugene understood.

"That actually sucks." Cassandra remarks.

"Is it, and it's really annoying..." Floyd grumbles with a pout.

"A pain indeed, but anyways, we should be on our way now." Merlin spoke and Vivien nods.

"Thank you for showing us around your dorm, Dorm head Draconia, and Vice Dorm Lilia. It was a pleasure of meeting you both. Oh and this woman that you're facing is Vivien, aka the lady of the lake." Vivien introduces herself with a gentle grin and both of them smiled back.

"Aah I see, no wonder you and Merlin look so familiar. Pleasure to meet you both." Lilia said.

"A pleasure to meet you." Malleus chimes in with a small smile and Vivien nods.

"You're very welcome, Lilia." She said.

~~~~Hall of Mirrors~~~~

"Aaah~ And that concludes out tour for today. Thank you all for joining on a fun ride." Merlin thanked them with a cheery smile.

"Except for a few of the dorms that ended up in a disaster." Vivien points out with clarity implying the disastrous results in Pomefiore and Ignihyde dormitories.

"Welp yes, but overall I hope you three enjoy and learned from this lovely tour." Merlin said.

"Oh we did! And it was super fun!" Rapunzel chirps with a grin.

But super cringy for us....

The boys thought with grimace looks.

"And we learned a couple new things from each dorms, so it's interesting." Cassandra chimes with a small grin and arms crossed.

"Ahah yeah. I have to say old man, this campus that crow guy owns is quite the large place!" Eugene compliments.

"Why thank you. I'll be sure to inform the headmaster that the three of you enjoy the tour." Merlin informs and he turns to Glory.

"Now I'm placing you to take them to your dorm so they could unpack their stuff." He instructs and she firmly nods with a bright smile.

"Don't worry Merlin, I'll show them to my dorm in no time." Glory reassures him as she pulls out a thumbs up.

"You can count on it!" Glory exclaims and Merlin chuckles softly at her enthusiasm.

"Of course you can." Merlin responds and then turns to the group.

"And since the three of you are staying at the dorm for winter break, I would like for you to trained Sundrop while I'm gone." Merlin informs them baffling them.

"Us?" Cassandra ask confusingly.

"Where would you go?" Rapunzel ask curiously

"I need visit a late friend of mine in Avalon. So I'm placing you, Rapunzel and Cassandra, since both of you were once users of the sundrop and the Moonstone Opal. I need you two ladies to help Sundrop to control her powers while I'm gone. Rapunzel, you can do her queen duty lessons while Cassandra can do some swordsmanship training to boost her strength and agility up." Merlin advises them.

"Sure thing Merlin." Cassandra replied.

"Alright, but..."

Rapunzel then turns her head to Glory.

"I also want her to enjoy her time as a teen. She's a child after all." She stated before smiling sweetly.

"And every child deserves a break and be free. Just like how I did back when I was her age." Rapunzel informed.

"Mmm very well then." Merlin understood. Soon, Eugene curled his brows at him.

"A friend?" Eugene ask curiously.

"Y-You mean King Arthur?" Deuce stutters.

"Aaah it's been awhile since Arthur's passing. You're visiting him at the cemetery tomorrow?" Vivien ask curiously.

"Indeed my fellow friend. Would you like to come? And if not then that's fine too?" Merlin kindly suggested. Vivien stayed silent for a minute as flashbacks of her memories from Avalon reappeared from her mind.

~~~~~~
It was before the battle of Mordred where she and Merlin were stood upon their good friend and legendary ruler of Avalon at his throne room.

"Vivien, Merlin, there's something I would like to say."

The blonde haired king said while turning his back.

"If something happened to me, I want the both of you to not kept this burden of my death. Because whatever it is you're feeling it's neither of your fault."

He reassures as Arthur spun his head with his radiant smile.

"Instead, I want you both to cherish the fond memories that we've shared and never feel like it's never your fault. Because at the end of the day, I'll always consider you both as my close friends."

He declares with a genuine smile.

"Why Artie, there's no need to fret. If anything, we'll do everything we can to support you in battle. Besides we have the round table swearing loyalty to you after all. No matter what happens to you, we'll always be your close ally."

Merlin reassures making Arthur chuckles softly and smiled at the tiny wizard.

"Still as positive as ever Merlin, but...thank you for taking this so calmly. It definitely helps a bit after Guin's death..."

Arthur mutters with a despondent tone grimacing at his wife's death as it stings from his heart. Empathizing how heartbroken her closest friend, the young brunette lake goddess saunters towards the king and gently lays a hand on his back.

"There there, Arthur. I understand how wrenching it is to see Guinevere's death has affected you, but right now, you must get some rest and the rest of us must prepare for tomorrow. Because tomorrow is going to be a dark day between you and Mordred."

Vivien reassures while stroking his back like a mother would do. Arthur's ears are completely open as he nods and let's out a sigh.

"I know Vivien and you're right..."

He replies as the blonde haired king turns to her with a lustrous smile.

"Thank you Vivien, I'm glad that I met a gentle and empathetic friend like you. You're certainly a wonderful woman that I ever be friends with cuz future vision or not, you'll still be my close friend."

Arthur reassures as he lets out a chortle with a friendly smile. That bright smile and his sweet tone reminisced her the most. The man who never shunned her for her ability, who never turned her back on her, and most importantly sees her as an individual; just like her close friend.
~~~~~~~

While looking back at the memories before his death, Vivien clench her hands together and responds.

"...I'll be fine here. You can go ahead." She kindly declines with a hint of sadness into her tone. Vivien has been treated as an outcast to the world due to her uncanny ability to perceive the future events before her death. But everything changed when she met befriended Merlin and King Arthur after she resurrection as a lake goddess. She was so glad that Vivien met the most kindest men that ever treat like a real person instead of a monster or an object. Though she's calm about his death, Vivien felt despair about her close friend gone to heavens after his death right after defeating Mordred.

Glory, Jade, and Azul noticed her shaken, but decides not to push her into spewing out answers since they knew her background is a sensitive topic. Merlin sighs and nods but smiles nevertheless.

"Very well, then I'll tell you about my travels in Avalon, is that ok?" Merlin reassures.

"That's...fine with me." She mutters with a sheepish grin.

"Oi Vivien, are you ok?" Jack ask curiously deeply concerned, but Vivien smiles and turns to the wolf with a small grin.

"I'm fine Jack, thank you." She replies. Jack seem hesitant for a minute but nods eventually.

"Ahem. Alright now that's over, Sundrop why don't you show Rapunzel and her group to the dorm that you and Grim are living?" Merlin suggests and she firmly nods.

"Certainly." She replies and she turns to her friends.

"I'll see you guys later! I gotta take Rapunzel and her friends to the dorm!" Glory chirps.

"Alright then, see you around Gloriane-san." Trey said with a grin.

"And don't be late for lunch." Riddle reminds her.

"Sure." Leona casually responds.

"See ya kitten." Ruggie nonchalantly said.

"See you." Jack spoke.

"Bye bye Angel-chan, don't be too late." Cater informs her with a wink.

"We'll save a seat for you." Ace informs.

"I'll bring you lunch once you get back." Deuce told her and she smiles.

"Thanks Deuce." She replies.

"Pleasure to meet you three, I'm looking forward for your visit at the Mostro lounge again." Azul expresses.

"Feel free to come by to visit us." Jade assures.

"Bye bye new fishes!~" Floyd cheerily said. Glory then leans to Rapunzel and her friends' ear.

"Don't make a deal with Azul or the twins. They love to make their contracts shady." She whispers and Rapunzel smile and nod.

"Understood." She replies with the chameleon Pascal saluting in response.

"Gotcha." Cassandra complies.

"Right back at cha." Eugene replies with a wink.

"Oh and by the way, there are ghosts in the dorm so be sure to be careful around them. They love to pull pranks." Glory warns shocking them.

"Wait, ghosts?" Eugene ask with disbelief.

"That's exactly what I said." Glory reminds him. Dumbfounded, Eugene scratches the back of his neck.

"Jeez...." Eugene mutters shaking his head feeling like he's going to get used to these ghosts while staying at their dorm.

"Welcome to our dorm." Grim dryly remarks.

"Hehehe. Don't worry, Glo. We'll be fine." Rapunzel reassures with a smile.

"Yeah we've handled ghosts before, and we don't mind handling three ghosts." Cassandra informs.

"What!?" Grim shrieks as Glory giggles.

"True." She replies before turning to her friends with a grin.

"Welp see you guys in the cafeteria! I'll be taking these guys to our dorm. Bye Merlin, bye Vivi!" Glory chirps.

"Safe travels, you four." Merlin spoke.

"Farewell Moonchild." Vivien said with a gentle tone.

"Bye bye Lionfish!!" Floyd shouts waving his arm at her with a toothy grin. Glory giggles softly and nods before turning her head to Grim.

"Come on Grim, lets go." She said.

"Yeah yeah." He said while clinging on to her shoulder. Then Glory turns to Rapunzel and her gang.

"Come on guys, I'll show you to our dorm." Glory kindly insists.

"Definitely!" Rapunzel perks.

"Of course." Cassandra casually replies.

"Lead the way, Corbett!" Eugene chirps.

"You got it!" Glory cheers with a wink and pulling a thumbs up.

———————

Once they arrived at the ramshackle dorm, Glory showed them to the lounge.

"Tadah! Here's our home!...kinda." She chirps though sweatdrops when realized much of a mess their lounge is.

"Our lounge isn't that good." Grim whispers to them as the three turns their heads at their messy dorm.

"Holy mackerel, it's like a haunted mansion here..." Eugene shudders.

"Not to mention that this dorm is quite huge just like the rest of the dorms." Cassandra points out. Glory giggles awkwardly while stroking her head.

"Sorry. I know it looks bad, but I promise you that I always cleaned it before school and we have many comfortable rooms in our dorm." Glory reassures.

"Well this certainly looks fine to me. It just needs many improvement on the lounge." Rapunzel mutters.

"Improvements?" Grim tilts his head confusingly.

"But I have to take your stuff to your rooms." Glory reminds them, but Cassandra chuckles and smirks at her.

"Don't worry about us, we'll take care of it."

"Yup, you guys can go ahead and get your stomachs filled. Ya don't want to get an empty stomach." Eugene wittily advises and Glory giggles and grins back.

"Alright. We'll be back after classes are over. See you guys." She said as she and Grim left the lounge.

"See you Glory and Grim." Rapunzel said waving her hand to them with a bright smile.

"Have a nice feast." Eugene chirps.

"And eat healthy as well." Cassandra reminds them.

"Will do, bye!" Glory spoke. As soon as they left, Cassandra and Eugene turns to their brunette queen.

"So we're changing up the place a bit after we unpack right?" Cassandra ask curiously with a smirk and Owl lets out a hoot.

"And is the game plan right?" Eugene chimes with his arms fold as Rapunzel gets her game face on and cracks her fist with her signature determined smile.

"Oh yes. Let's brighten this place up!" Rapunzel chirps and both Eugene and Cassandra nod with grins where they are on board with her plan. Pascal nods as he pulls out his red bandana out of nowhere when he spreads black ink across his cheeks and huffs his chest like he's a tiny warrior. As the group are ready to make the ramshackle clean, brand new, and spotless.
