“Here, Amu-chan! Your hairclip!”
“Thanks, Ran!”
“And your jacket!”
“Got it, Miki!”
“And your bag! Freshly clean and mended! ”
“Aww, thank you Su!”
“And your carryon bag for us!”
“Hehe. Right! How could I forget that?”
“Yeesh, Amu. You just have to take forever don’tcha?” Grim teased the pink haired girl.
Her response was sticking her tongue as the Chara went into their eggs in her bag. She then surprises Grim by scooping him up and running out the door of Ramshackle, and towards the dark castle of Night Raven College. They just made it to Main Street when Axel, Deuce’s Would Be Self, and Bandy, Ace’s Would Be Selves greeted them. “Grim, Amu-san! Morning!”
“Morning, Axel. Bandy!”
“Morning, furball!”
“Nyah! Who you callin’ furball, you dumb pixie!” Grim yelled, then tried to fire at him to no avail as Bandy zoomed away from him.
“Ha ha! You missed,” Bandy sticks his tongue out and tugs down an eyelid. That only made the dire beast give chase around the paved walkway.
“Chara Change: Pirouette Coil!”
Before Amu and Axel could stop them, candy pirouettes suddenly appeared and bound the two trouble makers instead.
“Must I collar you again, Grim,” The notorious Riddle Rosehearts and his Chara, Ichigo, arrived on scene. “Night Raven rules explicitly state no use of magic on school grounds without a professor’s consent.”
“Killjoy…” Grim and Bandy mumbled.
“Sorry, Riddle-senpai. I tried to stop them-”
“No worries, Amu-san,” Riddle shook his head, walking to Amu to adjust her tie. Once he was done fixing it, he offered his arm for her to take. “There. Now shall we?”
“Right!” She said, trying to hide her blush as they made their way down the road. As they walked, Amu reminisced on her time in Twisted Wonderland.
Saving her classmates from their overblots and healing their broken and lost Would Be Selves, dealing with swindlers and the never-ending confusion and panic from having the craziest of teachers.
It felt as if it were only yesterday she woke up in this strange world of magic and chaos.
