"We know you're a threat to NRC." Riddle said staring at deuce with an angry eyes but deuce just rolled his head around looking at the room he was kidnaped into, to be investigated in. The room was dark and simply a white room in heartslabyul and he nmwas tied to a chair by a thick blue ribbon. "I'm not the threat. If anything I'm the tool here… or a decoy, your pick" Deuce said looking at riddle smirking. "Stop it with the act. Who are you working with." Cater said looking at deuce with a frown. Deuce just fiddled with ribbon across his wrist "ill tell you but only with clues~" Deuce said draging out the end in a teasing manner. "Clues!? Is this a game to you?!" Riddle shouted angrily deuce just laughed "mightiest well make it a game! I've been caught so early! IT SUCKS THAT HE LASTED LONGER!" Deuce whined before yelling the end, he looked kind of feral in a way. Riddle and cater backing away. "whats the clue?" Cater said calming riddle down. "Hehe~ a rose by any other name may be just as sweet, but a gaurd by any other purpose is not that neet." Deuce said smirking. Cater thought while riddle tried to get any other info on the clue getting nothing.
"Heartslabyul! Its someone else in Heartslabyul!" Cater shouted riddle turned to him "What?" "roses and guards, savanaclaw doesn't have roses or Gaurds, octivelle is a water based environment, scarabia is mainly desert, Pomefiore is mainly purple not roses, Ignihyde is fire and Diasomia is thrones mainly." Cater explained riddles features darkened a bit. "Hum~? Next clue! When the queen falls the cards run to assist while alice runs away. Hiding to keep her head" the two had to think about it. "Its a trouble maker." Riddle mumbled thinking more. "Hum? You're faster then I thought, well last one. What card is a symbol of death, darkness, and mystery. And can represent the dark side of human nature, or the darker aspects of life." "Ace of Spades" "the ace of spades" Deuce smirked when they immediately answered, and realized who Deuce worked with "its ace!" They both shouted, deuce didn't say anything just smiling as the two rushed to the door and tried to open it but it was locked. "Ahaha! I told you i wasn't the threat! Why wast time with the simple last step!" They turned to him seeing Deuce with a dark cloud behind him, he was clearly overbloting.
"Deuce!" They both shouted. "Ace of Spades is a card that can symbol death, darkness, and mystery. And can represent the dark side of human nature. Overbloting has the chance of all of that! It was a clue hidden in plain sight! Haha!" Deuce was shaking as he laughed the darkness spreading around him. It was harming every one in tbe room when deuce overbloted cause they had to breathe in the blot that was in the air. The door flew open and some one rushed past the two students who had started to cough on the blot. A scream came from Deuce but then it was silent cater realized who was there and rushed to close the door behind them and held it shut. "C-cater *cough* what are you *cough* doing" Riddle asked walking to him in pain from coughing cater had a coughing fit before responding "ace!" It was quite but in the room the person growled. "Your insane! You're gonna kill yourselves first!" It was indeed ace back there. "The doors still closed *cough* meaning you'll *cough* still die in here. *cough* so you'll both be cuffed and come with us." Cater said, Ace really hated the threat but seemed to realize multiple things at once. "Fine! Just let me carry deuce to this place first." Riddle aloud it and cater opened the door pulling ace by the shirt the two still coughing.
Deuce woke up in Ace's lap, with his hands cuffed "ace?" He mumbled looking up at him. "Spades?" He replied looking down at deuce. "What happened?" Deuce asked curling closer to ace. "Got caught. But now its just plan B right" Ace said smirking at deuce who smiled at him.
