Prologue 11: Capture That Runaway!

Meanwhile, Ace wandered the Hall of Mirrors, relieves that today was. He was already stressed from classes, but to wash a hundred windows with that fur ball and that girl Gloriane is WAY TOO MUCH for him to deal with.

Ace shook his head at the thought of that feisty dark haired girl as he winced at the memory. For someone who's 5' 6" ft tall, she's got some muscle behind that slap. Though he must admit, he couldn't ignore the back of his head. Why does she remind him of someone he knew from that one story his grandmother told him about one time?

He pondered for a while, but nothing came up and shook his head.

"No way am I washing a hundred windows. Gonna has home...." He mumbled. He has other plans than washing a bunch of windows today.

"Found you, Dipsh#t!"

Soon his peaceful walk was short lived when he heard that same female voice from the Main Street.

"Hey you!" Grim barked.

Ace turns around where his whole face became completely pale. It's those two handymen from the Main Street!

Oh crap, it's them! And they looked pissed more than ever!

Ace thought with a panicked look.

"Gah! You found me?!" He yelped.

"Damn right we did, and you're not getting away this time!" She cursed him out.

"Jerk! Hold it right there! I won't let you be the only one to escape!" Grim scowled.

"I'm not just gonna wait around for you! I'm outta here!"

And with that, he took off running.

"Redire hic filius canis!" Gloriane cursed him out in Latin while chasing him.

"It's not fair for only you to get out of it! I want to skip out to!" Grim shouted as he ran after Glory.

Wow what a nice way to put it Grim.

Glory sweat dropped as they both chased Ace in the halls.

Further down, another young man with dark blue hair, bright teal eyes and a blue spade symbol painted over his right eye was minding his own business. He had finished with his classes and was heading back to his dorm.

Then he heard scurrying footsteps.

"Huh?" He turned to see Ace running.

"Outta my way! Outta my way!" Ace screamed.

"Huh?!"

"Hey you!" He looked over Ace's shoulder to see a young woman running behind with what seemed to be a cat in her arms.

"Stop him! He's trying to skip out on cleaning!" She pleaded.

"Use magic to stop someone?" He asked himself completely freaked.

"Should I freeze their legs? No, maybe restrain them?" He started murmuring.

"Maybe I could....uuuuhhhh...."

"Anyway, it doesn't matter! Just hit him hard, hurry!!" The cat demanded. That seemed to snap the bluenette out of it.

"Any way?! Anyway...."

"Come on! Hurry!" Gloriane shrieked.

"Any way coming up!" Once he pulls out his gem pen, he summoned the first thing that cams to mind. "Something heavy!"

Then out of thin air, a giant pot fell on top of Ace, crushing the first year, as he fell face first in the concrete.

"Guah! What the hell?" A pot?!" He shouted.

Well...damn, that was random, but hey at least it worked!

Gloriane thought.
————————————

As I saw Ace getting completely trapped under that giant ass pot trying not to giggle. Grim started laughed,

"Look at him! Ace is totally flat as a pancake under that cauldron! Lame!"

I snickered as I stopped running, I approached the bluenette.

"I didn't think I'd get a cauldron. Did I overdo it?" He muttered.

"Nah, you're fine! He totally deserved it!" I smiled. The bluenette tilts his head to look at me making me blink my eyes in confusion.

"Umm...something the matter?" I asked curiously.

"You looked....familiar..." The bluenette muttered making me more confused.

"Eh?" I looked puzzled when he said that.

"Damn, that hurt!" Ace winced as he crawled from underneath the pot. When I saw him squirming his way out, I quickly grabbed him by the arm, and pull him back up to his feet.

"F#*king sh#t for brains! You think you could just get away from Crowley's orders by ditching us to do your dirty work for you like it's nothing?! Nice try!" I snarled. He yanked himself away from me, rubbing his arm and scowled at me.

"You should be fine! Those 100 windows should be clean in a flash." He retorted.

"How is cleaning 100 windows 'in a flash'?! These were orders from the headmaster you damn idiot!" I scold at him.

"Washing 100 windows as punishment? What in the world did you all do?" The bluenette spoke up. I turned to face him.

"Long story short: these two meatheads got into a fight Main Street and as a result, Mr. 'Acts-Before-He-Thinks' completely charred the Queen of Hearts' statue." I explained the whole story to him causing his eyes to widened.

"You damaged one of the Great Seven statues?!" He looked at Ace.

"That's definitely something people would get pissed at. You get into a prestigious school and pull something like that on the first day...." He shook his head. Ace narrowed his eyes and looked away.

"Shuddup. And who are you?" He rudely asked.

"Deuce. Deuce Spade. Would it hurt to remember your classmates' faces at least?" Deuce fired, but then his face sunk, "Uh...."

I sweat dropped when he doesn't know his name.

"You haven't memorized mine, either." Ace muttered.

"B-Besides! If you were ordered by the headmaster, that means you have to take it seriously!" Deuce informed.

Thank you, someone finally agrees with me!

I pondered and I turn to Ace with a smirk, knowing he couldn't win in an argument.

"Okay, okay! I understand...then let's get it over and done with." He sighed.

"Thanks. Wait, where's Grim?!" I shrilled when I realized he's not there.

"Huh? Ah! That furball's gone!" Ace panicked as we looked around the room. Making me pissed as hell.

That damn little sh@thead! He did not just ditched us!
————————————

Meanwhile, out on Main Street, Grim chuckles to himself, happy to have disappeared during their conversation unnoticed. No way was HE doing the window work!

"Heehee! I leave it all to you! Bye-bye!" He skipped off.
————————————-

"Grrrr, stupid cat! He made me take his place!" Ace grumbled. "Oi, um, juice?" He turned to face his fellow first year.

"It's not juice! Deuce! Deu!" Deuce corrected.

"You're kinda responsible to help us catch that mongrel!"

"Why me?"

"This deadweight can't use magic so she doesn't count!" Ace pointed at me as a red vein popped from my head with a scowl. For that, I bonk him on the back of the head, and he winced in pain. "Ow!"

"This deadweight has a name, and it's Gloriane Corbett dumbass!" I bellowed. He rolled his eyes and started running.

"Let's move!" Deuce ordered as we all start searching for that devious rebel of a raccoon cat.
