"What the hell! Who dares do this to the great Grim! Me!" The raccoon yelled as he struggled against the wimp.
"That is no mere rope! That is the lash of love!" An unfamiliar voice of a man in his mid-30s to 40s said.
I looked up to see a man wearing a weird bird-like crow mask that covered almost every part of his face, only showing his gold eyes and black sclera (the white part of your eyes). Leaving only his mouth visible, he stepped closer and tightly held the wimp's handle.
'What the fuck...' You thought to yourself as you watched the weird, suspicious man walk closer to the talking raccoon.
"Ah, I found you, " The masked man said, making a pleased expression as he continued to talk. "You're one of the new students, yes?" The masked man said as he extended his hand out for a handshake. Though you just rolled your eyes, taking a step back away from him.
As you watched his expression turned into a hurt expression. But then it turned into one of agitated anger. "Not only did you leave and mess up the entrance ceremony but you have the goal to bring your untamed familiar too. Which means you have broken two of the school's rules!" The masked man said as he struck an old woman's pose.
"But his no-" You said trying to explain what was happening. But you once again had to deal with the talking raccoon. Which you just noticed had a pitchfork-like tail, that reminded you of a certain cat of a game you used to play in your old life...
"I'm not this foul's familiar! Let me go this minute!" The talking raccoon said as he thrashed around against the masked man's whip.
'Wait. Ain't that Grim? Like Grim from Twisted Wonderland?' You thought as you zoned out for a second.
Which only made the masked man roll his eyes. "Sure, sure that's what all the rebellious ones say." The masked man replied as he put his claw-looking hand against the talking raccoon's mouth, shutting him up. As the talking raccoon tried to fight back against the masked man's hand. Making a muffled sound, "Mmmph!!!"
"Well, the entrance ceremony is currently well underway." The masked man said as he turned, starting to walk out of the library.
"Huh?" You whisper as the masked man continues. "Now let's head to the hall of mirrors!" Now making you follow him. Which who was starting to piss you off.
Why did you think he was sort of cute in your last life? Maybe because he reminded you of your dad? Yeah, that's right with his stupid corny dad jokes.
'Well, now I want to kill his arrogant ass. And his annoying voice...' You thought as you glared daggers at the masked foul. You then took in a deep sigh before speaking. "Sir, what is the hall of mirrors?" You asked as you slightly looked over at the masked man.
"The hall of mirrors is the room you woke up in not too long ago." The masked man began to explain as he continued to walk. "The one with all those doors." He said as you started to see the room you started at before the raccoon started to chase you.
'Why does this day have to revolve around a stupid fucking room with coffins lining the damn walls!? This was the only thing that creeped me out about the game!' You thought as you continued to walk forward to the damn room. "Wait a second did the mirror bring me here or did the coffin bring me here?" I mumbled to myself, though I realized I didn't do a very good job at it because the masked man answered my question.
"Yes, all students must pass through those in order to get into the school. Though, normally most students only wake up when the coffin they're in is opened with a special key." The masked man said as he walked down the halls the raccoon forced you to go down. While he was chasing you.
'Damn masked foul! You have super hearing or what!' You thought a bit annoyed as you looked at the back of the masked mans head. 'Wait what was the masked foul's name again?' You thought before asking, "So… Did the talking raccoon have the special key? He did almost burn me alive…" You decided to play ignories. While pointing at the talking raccoon, who was still struggling against the masked man. 'Oh, this is so gonna be fun to mess with the cast...' You thought as you looked at the masked man closely.
"So in the end, the culprit appears to be your familiar. If you're going to bring your unruly familiar, you're going to have to take responsibility for taking care of it." He said as he glared at you and the talking raccoon.
"But sir the raccoon-" You tried to speak as your eyebrows furrowed in annoyance. Glaring at the masked man again with one of your most known death-chilling "I'm gonna kill you" glares.
Which made the man look away as he nervously looked away from your glare. "Oh my! It's not the time to get distracted!" He said, interrupting you once again. "Well, the entrance ceremony is soon coming to an end. We should pick the pace up." He continued as he picked up the pace.
Making you sigh as you thought. 'I should have given up by now.' While you heard the masked man say, "Let's keep moving." While he motioned for you to follow closely behind. Which you did, following closely behind him. While struggling against the clothes you were wearing. Since you were used to wearing more light layered clothes. That was suited to your body tip.
"Well since you're still in a daze from the teleportation magic. Though it's nothing to worry about though!" The masked man said as he continued to walk. "But fret not young man! I shall explain everything while we continue on our way! For I am so gracious!" The masked man said as he grinned like he was some sort of great savior.
'Wait a damn moment! Does he think I'm a man?' You thought as you continued to follow the masked man. Already past your limits with him. Though you were already tired from his shenanigans so you just nodded along to what he was saying. 'I'm so gonna show him when Grimy Grim ruins the ceremony...' You thought as you followed the masked foul.
"Well, this is Night Raven Collage. A collage made for talented Magicians. Who has a unique aptitude for magic that have gathered from all over the world to attend. In Twisted Wonderland." The masked man said as he waved his hand around in the air. Excited to explain everything to someone. Like this was his life's goal. Which made you roll your eyes, getting more annoyed with the man.
'Oh, so this world has magic too.' You thought to yourself. Due to your memories of your past life. Plus this would just give you stuff to talk to your mother, grandmother, Bad, and Hunter.
(Note: I don't remember if I gave the hunter's daughter a name or not. But I'm lazy to check. So... Hunter will be her name from now on.)
Which made you miss them even though they were a bit silly at times. They were your family, Bad knew all your secrets, and Hunter knew what some of your fears were. That you hated to be left alone... You didn't have much friends or family to rely on in your past life... But no time for bad memories! You have work to do. So you shock your head shacking those thoughts out of your head.
"Twisted Wonderland…" You whispered as you contemplated over the words. 'What a world…' You thought as you looked over at the masked man. As he seemed to sparkle with excitement radiating off of him.
"Yes! And I'm the headmaster of this fine academy. Appointed by the chairmen himself to take care of it. Dire Crowley." Crowley said as continued to walk even more happily though after he said that.
"Alright…" You said as you watched him smile with joy. As you followed him down what you hoped to be the last hall. 'So that's your name... Crowley. What a funny play with the word crow.' You thought slightly looking to the side.
"Though only those magicians that have been seen worthy by the black mirror can attend the academy. And those chosen ones can use the gate to be summoned here from all over the world." Crowley said as he waved his hand in the air in a circular motion. As if to emphasize this fact. As you nodded playing along as he continued. Like you didn't know anything. "And the ebony carriages carry a gate. So one should have gone to meet you as well."
"An ebony carriage? I don't remember ever seeing one of those." You whispered playing along again as you heard Crowley continue.
"The market decided a long time ago that the carriages should be used on special occasions." Crowley said as he smiled at you while you looked at him like he was some crazy old foul.
"So that carriage brought me here." You said as Crowley nodded at you while you started to sort of struggle to keep up with him. To the point, you had to tear the cloth around your left leg slightly. But just a bit so no one would notice unless they were super into the detail of the outfit.
"Now come, we have to get to the entrance ceremony," Crowley said as he picked up the pass once again, not even noticing that you were lagging behind.
'Did he really not notice his supposed student lagging behind? Is he that bad of a teacher?' You thought to yourself as you straightened yourself out before jogging after him. 'Fuck these robes!' You thought angrily. Grinting your teeth in annoyance.

Sometime somewhere else...
"Is that all of the new students?" A short red haired boy asked as he crossed his arms. Turning to a bunch of other students that were behind him. He continued talking while the students he was talking to beamed light sunlight. "Listen up students here in Heartslabyul, I am the very meaning of the rules. And so if I see anyone break the rules I'll cut off your head." He said in a very death defining tone as he glared at all the new Heartslaybyul students.
However, as the short red-haired boy talked to his dorm students. A tall, tane boy with lion ears and long brown hair yawned as he stretched his arms up in the air. "Ugh, this stupid stuffy ceremony is finally over." The lion boy whispered lazily before yelling, "We're going back to our dorm! Savanaclaw, follow me!" The tall lion eared man then got ready to leave with all the new Savanaclaw students.
"To all new students, congratulations on entering this supreme academy." A grayish silver haired man said as he pushed up his purple ovalish glasses. "So please enjoy your new life here to the fullest. And as the dorm leader of Octavinelle, I will support you all with the best of my abilities." He said as he smirked at the new students of his dorm.
A man with blonde hair and bright violet eyes hummed as he made a face that hinted at confusion but did not quit. "By the way, has anyone seen the headmaster? He seems to have disappeared again..." He said as he looked around the room at the other dorm heads.
"Abandoning his post it seems like…" A quiet voice said coming from a floating blue skull tablet. That floated above the floor by a few feet almost to the height of the boy with lion ears.
"Did the headmaster get a stomach ache and leave for the toilet?" Another male with white snow like hair and tanned skin said as he looked around excitedly, seeming to be the most excited one there at the ceremony.
"OF COURSE NOT!!! YOU FOOLISH STUDENTS!!!" Crowley yelled as he threw the doors to the room open. Revealing him, caring the talking raccoon Grim as you walked in behind him looking at the floor with your arms crossed.
"Ah~ Now he's here…" A voice said as Crowley, Grim, and you walked deeper into the room. Though no one was paying attention to it.
Your POV
You hopped to just sink into the floor and disappear at Crowley's stupid choice of entrance. As you felt everyone's eyes follow you and Crowley. While he led you to the center of this for cursed room, you silently prayed that it would just go up in flames right then and there. And after getting a good look around the room there were just boys and more boys. No girls. 'Oh... I forgot this school is an all boy's school.' You thought as you continued to look around the room. Bringing the hood of your roob down some more, hoping to hide your face a bit more. 'Should I just keep me being a girl a secret?' You thought for a moment before shacking your head. 'Na. I'll just keep doing me. No secrets...'
Meanwhile, Crowley sighed as he used his right hand to rub a bit of his temples in mock annoyance. "I can't believe my cherished students would believe that I would just leave without a good reason! Especially since we were missing a student!" Crowley said as he moved his right hand now motioning it at you like you were some wild animal. Which you slightly growled and glared at him making him look away from you. "Now please go up to the black mirror and it'll assign you to a dormitory." Crowly said, pushing forward to the floating black mirror as he smiled while your patience was growing very thin with Crowley. As he continued to hold the struggling talking raccoon known as Grim.
You gulped as you walked in front of the black floating mirror. Knowing that it will just see through your soul. Only to start seeing a white face fading into view, which sent chills down your spine. As you slightly gasp, your eyes widening.
"State thie name…" The floating face in the mirror said in a deep creepy voice.
"Y/n L/n" You said as you stared at the mirror with no fear in your eyes. Well you were hoping the mirror saw that you had no fear in your eyes, even though you were getting very creeped out by the mirror.
"Y/n L/n. The shape of your soul…" The face in the mirror said before he stared at you for a few moments. "Is one of those of a wolf in sheep's clothing." The mirror said as whispers started to go around the room.
'You little!!! You stupid creepy white face magic mirror had to rat me out!' You thought as you started to bite your lower limp in annoyance. 'Come on! I know I live in a damn fairytale but seriously!'
"I don't sense any sparkes of magic within your soul…"
"Though I do sense something else, that of magic but nothing in our world…"
"But other than that the color of your soul is that of a dark bloodthirsty beast wanting nothing but what it craves. And it won't stop till it gets it…" The mirror said before stopping again sending even more whispers around the damn death diffing room. As you also can sence Crowley standing behind you shocked as he stares at you and the mirror in disbelief.
'Come on! Can't I just have a damn moment's peace! Now every bloodthirsty power hunger foul is gonna come after me! And no thanks to you! You better watch your glass back! Cause I'm coming for you!' You thought angrily as you glared at them. Not caring if anyone saw you do it. You were gonna kill that mirror.
"I Don't see you in any dorm…" The mirror yelled before fading back into the back void that was the mirror.
Meanwhile, Crowley gasped behind you before yelling, "But there hasn't been a student that hasn't been placed for hundreds of years!" As you heard even whispers going around the room.
'Great, just great…' You thought to yourself as you looked at the boys whispering while looking away from you. Training not to make eye contact with you. 'I was hoping to just be deemed magicless like the protage in the game... But no...'
"Then I shall take their place!" The talking raccoon yelled as he jumped away from Crowley while he was distracted. Now running at you spitting a bunch of fire at you, as he tried to claw at you. Which only made you laugh, as you jumped easily over the raccoon. Landing behind him.
"Well, well ain't you in a death defying predicament..." You whispered into the raccoon's ear as you watched him shiver in fear. Before standing up straight, smirking as you placed your arms behind your head. Not even realizing that your hood fell revealing you to be a girl. Now having some boys look at you in shock.
Now enjoying watching the place burn a bit as you heard someone yell in pain before yelling once again, "HOT, HOT!!! MY BUTT IS ON FIRE! SOMEONE BRING MY BUT WATER!!!" Which threw you off a bit as you looked over at the person who yelled. Seeing a tane boy with silver hair run in circles as his but burned.
'Is that boy an idiot? He seems worse than Crowley...' You thought before raising a hand to your mouth and yelling, "Roll on the damn floor you foul! It'll put the fire out!" Now seeing the boy finally stop and fall to the floor, rolling around on it. Finally butting the fire out on his stupid but. 'Wait ain't he... Kalim! Oh, I'm so gonna have more fun than I thought~'
"Thank you!" The silver haired boy yelled happily as he waved at you. Making you look away smirking under your hood.
"Headmaster Crowley allow me to handle this problem." A silver haired said as he pushed up his purple oval glasses.
"That's Azul for you… Trying to earn himself bonus points…" The floating tablet said as it bobbed up and down in place.
'Wait! Azul! I'm so gonna kick your ass in your ark! For sure!' You thought already getting ready to plot his demise.
"Are any of you listening to me!?" Crowley yelled frustrated as he stomped his left foot on the ground as loud as he could. Making your ears hurt a bit. Which caused you to glare at him, but sadly he didn't react.
'What the hell is wrong with you Crowley?' You thought to yourself as you crossed your arms together. 'You handle this problem if you want it done and over with already.'
The short red-haired boy dealt with the terrified talking raccoon that froze in place. But what caught your attention was that he yelled, "Off with your head!" as he swung his right hand down as if cutting the talking raccoon's head.
Meanwhile, the lion boy tisks annoyed as he looked away. "What a bunch of jokers…" He said turning away, dodging some flames that he didn't even realize were coming at him. Which just made your eyes widen in shock at how lucky that boy with lion ears and tail was.
'Damn lion boy! You lucky gun!' You thought as you smiled excitedly. As you watched the loin boy walked away. 'Wait a second! Your Leona! Leona Kingschollar!' Getting even mroe
And after a moment the talking raccoon finally said "AH!? What is this!?" Trying to pull off a red and black heart shaped collar.
'Wait... Did everyone forget I jumped over Grim? And threatened him!?' You thought shocked as the seen continued to play out as it did in the game.
"The laws of Queen of Hearts No. 23. One shall never bring a cat into a festival, you being a cat means that you have broken that rule. You shall leave at once!" The red haired boy said annoyed as he glared at the raccoon, cat thing.
'Well damn, how did things get like this?' You thought as you stared at Grim and the red haired boy's interaction.
"I'M NOT A CAT!!!" Grim yelled, pissed even more now. Well you thought he was clearly by his reddened face. "I'll just have to burn this collar off right up and....W-wait, I can't use my fire!?" Grim yelled, even louder, shocked.
The red haired boy hummed to himself for a moment before he crossed his arms together. "You won't be using any magic. I remove that, just like an ordinary cat." He said, smirking proudly of himself.
Though you noticed that Grim did have a collar around his neck. And a heart shaped one at that. 'Huh, impressive nothing like my world's magic...' You thought as you smirked slightly as you watched on.
"Wow, impressive as always, Riddle. Any and all magic is sealed by your unique magic." The silver haired boy with ovilish purple blue glasses said as he walked closer to him pushing his glasses up. "I want it.." He said whispering under his breath.
Though you could hear it from your heightened wolf powers. 'Oh, great a power hungry foul... I hope to the gods that he hasn't realized I have powers.' You thought as you sighed. 'Oh wait I did use my powers to scare that racoon... Well now I'm fucked...' You thought as you watched on at everyone else.
"You there must do something about this, it is you're famil-" You heard that crow man known as Crowley say before cutting him off pissed.
"OH, FOR FUCKS SACK!! THAT DAMN RACCOON IS NOT MY FAMILAR! IF I HAD A FAMILIAR THEY WOULD NOT ACTED THAT!!! THEY WOULD OF KNOWN I WOULD BEAT THEIR DAMN ASS IF THEY EVER DID!!! NOW DROP THIS DAMN FAMILIAR SHIT BEFORE I BREAK THAT DAMN NECK OF YOURS!!!" You snapped as you glared at Crowley pissed as your eyes glowed a faint red. As everyone now looked at me shocked by my outburst. While Crowley took a step back shocked as he said, "Huh?It...it isn't your familiar?"
"NO! For the last time! You'd think so if you listened to me!" You said annoyed as you placed both your hands on your hips. Glaring at Crowley angry, as you heard him gulp.
Before Crowley coughed getting your attention. "Anyway, let's get this raccoon out of the school. At any rate we won't make you into a servant for I am gracious." Crowley said as he smirked like he won a oh so great battle.
'As if your oh so gracious crow mask...' You thought as you looked at Crowley annoyed. While you watched grim yell again. "GYAA!!! LET ME GO!!!" While one of the boy students tried to drag him away by his collar. "I have to stay...I have to...I have to become the greatest magician!!!" Grim cried as he begin to tear up. While he clawed at the door before it closed on his face.
You sighed as you felt your face somewhat soften at what you just heard Grim yell. Feeling a bit bad for him but also not. He could of just gone and trained by himself and become powerful over time. Then plan on helping people dearing disasters. But what did you know what the little guy was going through? Correction you did know exactly what he was going through. He was your favorite animal character after all in this game.
You than heard Crowley started to sift his body now looking at you. "Now then, we have a bit of trouble along the way but this brings the entrance ceremony to a close. Dormitory heads, please show the new students the way back to the dorms." He said as he looked around noticing something was missing. "come to think of it...I don't see the dorm leader for Disomnia, Mr. Draconia around at all." He continued as he placed his hand on his hip sighing.
"That's no different from usual isn't it" The lion ear guy said Rolling his eyes.
"What? Did no one tell him about the ceremony" The silver haired red eyed boy that had his but on fire said shocked as he looked around.
"If you're gonna complain you, should've done it yourself." the blond hair violate eyed boy diva like person said.
"I don't know anything about that guy though!" he replied sighing. As he looked away putting his hands be hind his head.
You than heard whispers erupt from the other students as they looked at on another. About how the guy they forgot to invite.
"Draconia? As in Malleus Draconia?" Student A said as he tried not to be noticed talking.
"Wait he goes here!?" Student B said shocked scared a bit.
"Scary..." Student C whispered as he looked down at his feet.
"So it seems I was correct..." A deep voice said right next to you. Making you turn my head in shock because you didn't sense him coming from anywhere. You then see the guy was short with black hair with bits of it colored in pink and a babyish face that didn't match his voice.
"I thought he would come, but Malleus didn't…" The black hair pink-tipped boy whispered sadly as his eyes seemed troubled.
Crowley then spooked up as he eyed the dorm heads. "Well, it seems that the invitation never arrived again. Huh?"
Which just made you sigh in annoyance. Just making you want to tear the so-called dorm heads simple little heads off. As you whispered, "Well ain't that sad. If I was a so-called dorm head. I would've invited this other dorm head…"
"My deepest apologies, Headmaster." Azul said as he placed his left hand on his chest. "I promise we didn't mean to exclude him." He continued making it visible that he was lying.
"You would need a better acting couch." You said acting like you were whispering. Now feeling Azul's eyes glare daggers at you. 'Oh, so scary!' You thought sarcastically. Rolling your eyes knowing that Azul guy is glaring more dares at you.
The red hair boy sighed taking a step forward. "His aura makes it kind of hard to approach." He said as he looked to the floor sort of nervous.
'More excuses! Feed up to your mistakes already and take responsibility! You fucking fouls!' You thought angrily as you glared at all of them in disguise. 'How dare you all hurt Drago! My man Malleus Draconia! One of the loves I had in my old life!'
The boy with black hair and pink dyed tips. Sighed and walked over to the boys who had no dorm head in front of them. "It's fine…" You heard the boy whisper as he walked past. "Members of Dismonia can follow me!" He shouted before mumbling to himself quietly. "I hope this doesn't upset him…" He then walked off with the students.
