Episode 2-8: The Investigation

Meanwhile at Night Raven College, Glory and Grim stop by at the infirmary where Merlin widen his eyes to notice their presence. Surprised, Merlin grabs his staff and taps it twice as a cloud poof before him. Then he hops on and floats his way to the duo.

"What in the name of Mordred's ass are you two doing here? Training is cancelled remember?" Merlin reminds them.

"We know, we're here to investigate." Glory reassures making Merlin's busy white brow curl in confusion.

"Investigate? Why-!" He soon paused when he realized what's going on and became deadpan.

"Lemme guess? Dire hired you guys as detectives, right?" He guess.

"Yup." They both replies.

"Now tell us where we could find the guy who hurt his leg is in here somewhere!" Grim demands making the tiny wizard sigh.

"Very well, they're at the left side near my desk." He told them as he floats towards the end of the bed.

"Huh? They're?" Glory baffles as she turns to Grim who is on her left shoulder and shrugs in response. As they follow Merlin to the end of room, they came across two guys where one guy with light brown hair lying on the bed with leg on the ledge of the bed bandaged and other guy with dark green hair is sitting besides him.

Once arrived, Glory notice the red and black bands on their arms.

These guys must be Heartslabyul residents.

Glory thought as the two notice the commotion and turns to the duo.

"What's with you guys?" The Heartslabyul resident ask curiously.

"You're guys from the Ramshackle Dorm that were at the Unbirthday Party and the girl in the red shirt, you're name is Glory, right?" The other Heartslabyul resident guess.

"Oooh, look at how famous we are!" Grim chirps grinning at the rising popularity. Glory rolls her eyes and glance back the Heartslabyul duo.

"Yes, I'm Glory. We apologized for barging in so unexpectedly, but we'd like to hear about how you got injured." Glory ask making the light brunette Heartslabyul student tilts his head.

"I don't really get it either." He says making her confused.

"Hm? No one has pushed you?" Glory ask curiously as the light brunette shakes his head.

"Not that I remembered. Him and I were just talking...Before I knew it, I'd fallen down the stairs." He replies making her puzzled.

"That's it? You don't remember what the perpetrator look like?" Glory asks.

"That's how I reacted when he explained the problem after I asked." Merlin chimes in.

"Yeah. It's wasn't like he stumbled or slipped or anything." The dark green haired Heartslabyul resident told them.

"Can you explain the incident in details please?" Glory requests as the light brunette student scratch his head looking baffled.

"I can't really put it into words well, but...it almost felt like my body just kinda left forward." He explains making her tilt her head curiously.

"You don't say?...hmmm..." Glory hums.

"I see, I see." Grim nods. After a few minutes of thinking, Glory let's out a sigh and smiles.

"That's all I need to hear, thank you for your cooperation. And before I-"

"Hold it!" Merlin soon stops what Glory is about to do by covering her mouth with his staff. Merlin then let's out a chuckle and turns to the boys.

"Excuse me for a sec gentlemen, I must take her outside privately." He told them as he drags Glory and Grim out of the infirmary causing the two boys to be confused while watching them being escorted out by Merlin. Soon he shuts the door and turns to the duo.

"Listen, my sundrop child. I know what you're about to doing, but now's not the time. Don't worry about those two men in the room, I'll take matters on my hands. For now, I want you and Grim to focus on the investigation, understood?" He reassures. Glory looked reluctant at first, but Grim taps her left cheek.

"Come on Glory, we gotta find more people to ask." Grim pleads and Glory sighs and nods eventually.

"Alright, we will. Take care of those boys." Glory reminds him.

"Oh oh oh. Trust me my dear sundrop, a wizard knows what he's doing. But one more thing before I release you both." Merlin then floats to Glory's right ear.

"You've saw a vision of Leona's heart right?" He ask making her eyes widen.

"That was Leona!? That explains the yellow heart then." She mutters.

"Indeed my child. The blot from his magic is beginning to consume him. If this keeps up, he'll end up overbloted with negative energy; just like how it happened with Riddle." He whispers as Glory nods understandably.

"I understand." Glory replies as she can hear Merlin grinning and Merlin departs and floats back to the door.

"Now go, my child." He instructs and she nods as Glory turns to Grim.

"Come on Grim, let's go find more people to ask." Glory told him.

"Yeah." Grim nods as Glory boots through the halls leaving Merlin smiling before turning back to his student.

"Good luck my sundrop, I know you can do it." He mutters sending encouragement to his student as he opens the infirmary to healed the injured boy.
————————————

Later at the classroom, Glory and Grim enter the classroom where she notice two boys sitting in their desks wearing violet and pink bands with distressed looks.

These guys must be from Pomefiore.

Glory thought as he turns to Grim who on her shoulder.

"Let's go talk to them." Glory told him as he nods where they approach the Pomefiore boys to their desks.

"Hey, hey. You got hurt pretty bad not too long ago, right? Tell us about it." Grim commands.

"Hm? Eh! You're that girl that was rumored to be Gothel's blood!" The Pomefiore student shrieks making Glory completely deadpan when this was brought up again.

Of course I'm still going to be feared by other students from different dormitories despite warming the hearts of the residents from the Heartslabyul dormitory.

Glory thought not surprised when he yelps, but sighs and smiles cordially at him nevertheless.

"Yes, but I can assure you that me and Gothel are different people. However that's besides the point, what my friend is asking is why are you so distressed?" Glory informs.

"He's upset that he can't participate in magift in top condition right now!" The other Pomefiore resident told them.

"Hm? Why's that?" Glory ask curiously.

"How could you be so tactless, throwing salt onto someone's wound like that. I challenge you! Pick up the glove!" The purple haired  Pomefiore resident demands.

"That's what happened!?" Glory and Grim shrieks.

"Hey, calm down! You got yourself an injury, just rest for Christ-"

"Don't tell me what to do! I was so excited for this year's tournament and now this happened I can't believe this!" He rants.

"Now men, let's none get to hasty her-"

"Shut it bitch! Just who do you think you are stepping into someone's busy!? You're the reincarnation of Mother Gothel for god's sakes!" He snarls and that did not suit well for Glory as a red vein pops from her head grimacing Grim where a raging aura of light emits through her left hand to her entire body.

"Ack! You're a dead man!" Grim remarks as he leaps out of her shoulder and flees to the bookshelf where he hides behind it to protect himself from her wrath. The Pomefiore residents stood there with their eyes widen as they watch Glory cracking both of her fists when being called a 'bitch' and disregarded as the reincarnation of Mother Gothel once more.

"Now you listen here asshole. I may not enjoy getting into someone's business, but I can assure that we came here to investigate the injury situation. So sorry for barging into your 'business', but here's one thing you must know about..." Glory then grabs the Pomefiore student by the necktie as he flinch when he sees Glory shooting the deadliest glare at the boys.

"Call me a bitch again and I'll make sure you'll never see the light again. And like I said before, we may have the same appearance, but are both different people, GOT IT!?" Glory threatens making them quiver and nod fearfully.

"Y-Yes! We understand! We're sorry!" They apologized with Glory smiling and release his tie.

"Now that shouldn't be too hard, right?" Glory ask with a bright grin with a hint of 'don't-mess-with-the-Queen or I'll-f#*king-kill-you' vibes peeking through. Once Glory's rage mode died down, Grim gallops towards Glory and hops back to her shoulder. Then the purple haired student humphs in response.

"Not bad...fine. I'll tell you about that day." He said.

"It happened in the laboratory." The second Pomefiore student told them.

"Out of nowhere, he grasped a pot of boiling potion with his bare hands and threw the whole class into an uproar!" He explains.

"An uproar? Anything else?" Glory ask.

"Yes! Then he went and knocked over the pot all over the counter. I was so surprised!" He informs.

"Are you going to tell them everything!?" He scolds at him.

"Mmhmm mmhmm. I see." Grim nods and Glory tilts her head at the information she received.

Seems out of the ordinary, but...we should definitely head back to the dorm to think these through.

Glory thought as he glance back at he men and smiled warmly.

"Thank you for the information. Please take care." She said as she turns to Grim.

"Let's go."

"Mhm."

The duo left the classroom and head back to the Ramshackle dorm.
———————————

Meanwhile back at the ramshackle dorm, Glory and Grim were at the foyer pondering about the information that they've received from the infirmary and classroom.

"I can't see anyone we talked to as anything other than clumsy." Grim states.

"Hmm...it's strange though. Every information we gained came out as baffling and unclear. I never seen a mystery like this before..." Glory mutters.

"Do we still think these weren't accidents." Grim ponders.

"Mmm...that's exactly what I'm trying to think Grim, but-"

Soon they heard buzz from the door.

"Hm? Who's there?" Grim ask curiously.

"I'll get it." She said as she stands up from the stair steps and walks to the front door. Once Glory opens the door to see Ace at their doorsteps.

"Yooo. Glor." He greets as Glory let's out a sigh but smiles.

"Hey Ace." Glory greets him.

"Hm? You seem pretty dow- Oh, Grim you look better." He remarks.

"Ugh, it's you. Listen, I'm pretty busy right now so I don't have time to hang out." Grim grumbles.

"Busy? You're not gonna finish the homework?" Ace ask curiously and Glory sighs.

"I'll explain...."
————————

Meanwhile at the lounge, Glory and Grim told Ace about the incident that happened recently and the investigation.

"Hmmm. People getting injured suspiciously, huh." Ace ask.

"But while we were listening to them, it just sounded like they were being clumsy or getting caught up in the excitement for the tournament." Grim explains and this had Glory frustrated at this point.

Okay this is by far the most strangest investigation we've seen so far. Grim said their accidents, but-

Suddenly her phone rang from her bag flinching the trio.

"Damn that's so loud!" Ace winces.

"Ack! Who's calling you in a time like this!?" Grim shrills.

"Relax, I'll get it." Glory reassures as he grabs her phone from her backpack and press the green button. Then she puts it on to her right ear.

"Hello?" Glory answers.

"Come to Heartslabyul at once, Rabbit." Glory widen her eyes when she hears Riddle's voice.

"Riddle? What's going on?" Glory ask curiously.

"Eeh!?" Grim shrieks.

"Riddle called you!?" Ace yells. Glory frowns and shushes the boys to be quiet before putting her phone back to her ear.

"Tell me what's happening Riddle." She commands.

"Trey got himself injured, I need you to arrive at Heartslabyul dorm to heal him. Got it?" He said and Glory widens her eyes and nods.

"I'm on my way, Riddle. Stay with Trey, okay?" She told him.

"That's exactly what I'm doing Rabbit. Bye." He said as he hung up the phone.

"What did Riddle say?" Ace ask curiously.

"Riddle wants me to come to his dorm because-"

Suddenly a loud boom came across the door when they heard footsteps as they all turn to see Deuce running towards the trio with a panicked look.

"Ace! This is bad!" Deuce yelps.

"Huh? What's got your panties in a bunch?" Ace ask curiously.

"Clover-senpai got hurt falling down the stairs!" Deuce told him.

"Wha!?" They both gasp before they turn to Glory.

"Wait! That's what Riddle told you!?" Ace ask with his eyes widen.

"Eh? He told you!?" Deuce shrills.

"Yeah." Glory replies with a nod.

"Ffgna! You can't mean that unflappable Trey-"

Soon Glory raise his hand up to Grim silencing him when she finds this odd from Trey.

"Hold it Grim. Let's think this though. We've known Trey for a while now, but I can't really picture him as being clumsy." She infers.

"You're right, Trey isn't the kind of guy to just trip over nothing." Ace agrees.

"Let's go ask him what happened!" Grim proclaims as Glory nods and stands up from the couch.

"Let's go boys." She said as the three nod and left the dorm where they head straight to Heartslabyul.
