Unbirthday Party Redo!
It had been a week since the Overblot episode with Riddle. During that time, the girls took the time to help fix up Heartslabyul's garden.
Right now, the Ramshackle girls were at the Heartslabyul with something that Justine made for Riddle, as a gift. They were dressed in modern-day versions of their respective dad's costumes.
"Hello ladies~ Hey, is that a gift for someone?" Cater asked as he saw Justine's gift.
"Yes, its a gift. And no, its not for you Cater." Justine said getting a pout from the 3rd year, as they got the garden in time as a student announced Riddle's arrival.
HEARTSLABYUL STUDENT A: Make way for our leader, the Red Ruler: Prefect Riddle!
HEARTSLABYUL STUDENTS: Three cheers for Prefect Riddle!
RIDDLE: Indeed. The roses are red and the tablecloths are white. Truly a perfect Unbirthday Party. And the Dormouse is inside the teapot like planned... Well, I guess it doesn't really matter now.
TREY: You don't have to change so suddenly, you know? And we can just use the jam on the scones, if you'd like. We don't have to stop altogether at once. We can take things slowly.
RIDDLE: Yes, you're right.
During the party, Riddle did make some strawberry tarts like he promised, though they ended up salty! Apparently, he actually took Trey's 'secret ingredient' seriously, but everyone got a laugh out of it, even Riddle.
"Fufufu~ All of Trey's sweets are so delicious no matter how much I eat~ Munchiemunchie~" a familiar cat boy said appearing out of nowhere.
"Che'nya!? What are you doing here?" Riddle pointed at Che'Nya.
"Hm~? I came to celebrate your Unbirthday Party~! Congratulations, Riddle~"
"The Unbirthday Party is a tradition exclusive to the Heartslabyul Dorm. It doesn't concern you, does it?"
"The same goes for those guys, y'know~?" Che'Nya asked pointing at Hazel and Grim.
"They are guests. I invited them here." Riddle defended.
"Ah, it's you! The nya-nya guy from last time! Speaking of, what dorm are you from anyway?" Grim asked.
"Grim, he doesn't attend this school. Remember?" Katereminded Grim.
Trey added to Hazel's claim. "Kate's right. Che'nya's not a student of our school in the first place. He's a student from Royal Sword Academy, Night Raven College's fated rival of old."
This took Deuce and Ace by surprise.
DEUCE: Eh?! He's a student from another school!?
ACE: And from Royal Sword Academy to boot!?
HEARTSLABYUL STUDENT A: Did he just say Royal Sword Academy?
HEARTSLABYUL STUDENT B: Some of those guys are here!?
HEARTSLABYUL STUDENT E: What'd you say!? Where is he!? I'll chase him out!
"Whoopsies~ I already had my tart, so I'm outta here~ Fufufufun~" The cat boy said as he vanished.
HEARTSLABYUL STUDENT A: He got away!
HEARTSLABYUL STUDENT B: After him!
A lot of the Heartslabyul students ran trying to find the cat boy.
"Everyone just kinda uh... up and left..." Grim trailed off.
"Night Raven College students basically treat Royal Sword Academy students like enemies." Riddle shook his head.
"It's a rivalry that's been going on for 100 years, after all..." Trey signed.
"Well, well~ Let's not talk about something gloomy on such a happy day~! Let's just enjoy our own Unbirthday Party~!" Cater said to lighten the mood with Grim agreeing.
"Nyaha! I'll eat my fill until I drop! Hooray for Unbirthday Parties!"
Justine then gave her gift to Riddle, telling him it was for him. "Here. I made it for you Riddle."
It was a simple strawberry-chocolate tart, but from the looks of it, Riddle's eyes widened like a child. Plus, he loved the taste as he blushed.
Then Ace decided to ask something. "By the way, I've been meaning to aske something. How did you girls do all that combat stuff?" He said getting the others attention.
"I've been wondering that too. You said that only two of you had magic at least, but how did the rest of you do that stuff?" Deuce asked.
The girls looked at each other and sighed.
"Well, because we actually come from a different dimension. We're considered meta-humans or mutates; humans with mutant powers, and most of them aren't even magic. But we gained our powers from our dads who gained them long before we were born. My dad for example; once known as Dr. Bruce Banner until a gamma radiation experiment gone wrong made him a giant green raging mutant known as the Hulk." Kate said as Becky brought out a hologram capsule to show the group.
"My father Dr. Stephan Strange, once a great surgeon, until a car accident costed the use of his hands and he was sent by a friend to train under a hidden society of The Ancient One and rose to become the Sorcerer Supreme, and now he goes by Doctor Strange." Laura said.
"Ouch." Cater winced.
"My dad was Tony Stark, by his standards; a genus billionare playboy philanthropist, then he was abducted by an enemy, left for dead, but he created the Arc Reactor which not only kept him alive, but also powered a special suit of armor, and now people call him Iron Man." Becky added.
Anisha then spoke. "I don't really have a last name, so I had to use my father's name; T'Challa. He's also the current king of Wakanda, my homeland, where we worship the panther, and every king holds the title of 'Black Panther', and our people hold the responsibility to protect a precious resource called 'vibranium' and to keep it from those who would use it for evil purposes."
Minerva then took over; "My father's the Mighty Thor; the Asgardian God of Thunder, and Heir to Asgard. I'm considered a demigod, because my father chose a mortal as a wife. I took on my mother's maiden name to get through school."
"My dad, once called Peter Parker, an all-around nerd, until a radioactive spider escaped from a lab that his school was visiting, injected it's DNA in him, and he gained the abilities of a spider, and he formerly showed off his power to make money until his uncle was killed by a carjacker her could've stopped. Since then, my dad vowed to protect his city from criminals and took on the name 'Spider-Man'. He was also the man who taught the rest of us; 'With great power comes great responsibility'." Justine explained.
"He sounds like a wise man." Riddle stated, making Justine smile at him.
"Finally, there's my own father. To be honest he's older than he looks because he was frozen in ice for a long time. Prior to that, he was Steve Rodgers, and he was a lanky man until the war when he was chosen for a Super Soldier Serum which made him a superhuman and was also the only one to survive the process. In that moment, Captain America; The First Avenger was born. He not only fought against a deadly enemy, he led the Allies to victory in the war, and even sacrificed himself to save a whole nation, and in turn the world from being ruined. Everyone mourned his 'death' until it was found that he was frozen in ice for about 60 years, and was still alive. He still had trouble adjusting to a world he was lost in, but he found allies in the Avengers as well." Stella concluded.
"Wow! All your dads sound cool! Wish I had some kind of power like that!" Ace said.
Aside from the big reveal, the group all had a good time.

RUGGIE: Ah-ah~ Must be nice. Looks like Heartslabyul's having an all-you-can-eat party. I wonder if Savanaclaw has a filling tradition like that, too~
LEONA: Hmph. What's so fun about a party where you just eat cake until the sun goes down? It's a good recipe for heartburn.
LEONA: More importantly, Ruggie. About that thing I asked for...
RUGGIE: Leave it to me~ It's moving forward smoothly~ Shishishishi~
LEONA: Let's start that revenge plan on Malleus while those guys are busy with their afternoon tea. He better be ready...
