Ahh ok, I'll claim one of the Suit Alices, the Club one.

May I claim one of the 5 Alices?

Ayano glared at Nick with a mix of shock and anger. "Don't curse in front of the kid!" She was tempted to kick the holiday but she decided not to. Nick just suffered from a huge fever, and kicking him would lead him to an even worser state. - - - - - Yellow eyes and taking over, Clover remembered hearing that from one of his own illusion copies. Sipping the tea that Varmill gave him, Clover thought to himself, 'I wasn't controlling myself back then, it was more like...my emotions were guiding me throughout the whole fight.' Looking at his childhood friend, he spoke, "Do you remember the promise we made together after we first met? You said you would always be there whenever I was hurt." Clover looked down at the teacup resting in his hands. "You kept your promise but, one day I was alone at the meadow. I was taking a nap underneath a tree when suddenly, someone attacked me. Just from that person's presence, I knew it was a holiday. No matter what illusion or escape method I pulled, I was too weak to get away." He tightened his grip on the teacup. "After he finally caught me, he demanded my pot of gold. I could tell he was a greedy holiday and there was no way in hell was I giving him something so precious to me. So I obviously refused, and the holiday started beating me up." Clover's hand was clutching the tea so tight, cracks started appearing on the cup. "And during the whole time I was waiting for you to come rescue me again I realized something, I was pathetic." Just as he said that, the cup shattered in his hand, cuts covered his palm but Clover didn't seem to notice as he continued. "The holiday gave up and left me there completely beaten up. I fell unconscious several times and that was when I was infected with the gloom." Clover smirked, he was losing himself again. "When I discovered that I had become stronger, I knew I didn't need to depend on you anymore. And yet you just saved me again." The fact that Varmill wanted Clover to return back to normal pissed him off, does Varmill want him to be weak and helpless again?

When Varmill began to apologize, Clover's eyebrow twitched in annoyance as he looked away from the holiday. "You worry so much." He mumbled underneath his breath. Suddenly, the entity spotted the teacups sitting on the nightstand. "Hey," Clover gave Varmill a glare like a stubborn kid. Ever since he found himself here, Clover wanted to ask these questions, "Why did you help me? Didn't I threaten you back at the meeting?" He recalled a feeling similar to bloodlust directed at Varmill when he was fighting Aurora. Now, sparing the holiday and receiving a huge headache, Clover felt more like..himself.

((The music in the music box is very peaceful, it was also very beautiful. ^_^ )) As Clover pretended to be unconscious, he heard Varmill nearby trying to pull the cat off the bed. Suddenly, a crash and a calm melody started flowing into his ears. He wasn't sure if he was imagining it, but his head felt a little lighter as the music box continued to play. Unfortunately, the sweet music was cut off as Patty closed the music box. After hearing Varmill's footsteps leave the room, Clover finally decided it was time to leave. However before he could get up, he felt something pressing down on his chest. 'What the-' He looked down to see Puss spread out on top of him. Cursing in his head, Clover slowly started putting his hands around the cat's waist. He didn't want to alarm the cat and Varmill.

Ayano nodded. "Of course! I'll be back, call me if something comes up." And with that, she went through the tunnel, taking her to Grim's cabin. When she arrived, Nick took the notebook and began looking through it. Folding her arms across her chest, she said. "Well, what do you think? Is there any way to cure the gloom-infected holidays?" Ayano wasn't expecting an answer since it was Nick afterall, but who knows?

Ayano nearly broke the phone when Aoba said something about saving Christmas. "Those...four..?" There were anger behind those words. Grim, she sort of trust, but the others? Hell no! Ayano sighed, praying that the four don't mess up for the sake of the children around the world. When she heard Nick's queston, she responded, "I guess you can since the notebook does have your name on it." Ayano turned to Varmill, hoping that she didn't freak him out. "You want me to head back to Grim's cabin to show them the notebook? You can stay here to watch over Clover." - - - - - Feeling the cat rub against his arm, Clover tried to ignore Puss. He didn't want the two holidays to realize he was awake. However, the temptation got to him as Clover gave in. Petting the cat's back, he barely made any movement. Surprisely as he continued to pet Puss, his headache got even worse as Clover slightly cringed.

You should, and that reminds me, I need to update mine.

As she waited for Anthony's reply, Shion glanced up at the clock. Oh god, they're going to be late at this point. Turning her heel she headed for the door. As she ran through the hallway she looked at her schedule. 'My first class is...Combat Practice and Fitness/Room 745.' Shion felt her heart plummeting. Of course, she starts out with her worst class. Physcial activity was not her thing. Sure she was flexible, but she doesn't really have alot of stamina. Arriving at the classroom, she spotted Viridem and a couple other students. It seems she made it. Shion walked up to the person she guessed was the professor. "Good morning, um," She pointed at the students who were in line like they were in a military. "Where should I..stand?" From first glance, she was scared of the professor. He was not someone you mess with.

Holding the phone, Ayano continued as she petted the cat. "We also got the book that the librarian called us for." She took out the book and flipped it open. She was curious what was written inside. "Umm lets see, huh?" The book was covered in writing about the gloom. It seems someone was doing research to look for a cure. "The whole book is about gloom and a few random stuff, which I'm guessing was to make it seem like a normal notebook." Ayano flipped to the back of the notebook. "Oh? Nick's name is on there including his phone number. There's also another name, Aurora. This must be Aurora's research notebook." - - - - - 'My head hurts..' That thought repeated in Clover's mind. The whole time he was in an unconscious state, he felt like himself again: weak, pathetic, and worthless. However, once the gloom entered into his body, he was powerful. He didn't need to fear the humans or the holidays anymore. He could take care of himself. After gaining an increase in his abilites, Clover wanted to get revenge on the humans and the holidays, so they could never hurt him again. '...' So why was he rejecting what the gloom was telling him? He spared the humans, avoided hurting the children, and he resisted the urge to kill Aurora. Is that why he was sick? Because he refused to do what the gloom was influencing him to do? Clover felt his chest tightening. That must be it. Suddenly he heard a familar voice. 'Varmill? Is he on the phone? Why am I hearing his voice?' Feeling his conscious slowly returning, his eyes opened a little, his vision still a little hazy. 'Another voice, a girl?' Without saying a word, Clover shifted his gaze to the source to see a bunny girl and Varmill holding a phone. Another thing that caught his eye was the cat sitting on the girl's lap. Puss, Varmill's cat, how long has it been since he last pet that soft fur?

((Awww, I love black cats~)) Ayano scratched Puss behind her ear again as she sat down on the chair and replied. "Tea would be nice. We should also tell Aoba and the others what we're doing. Oh, and the presents you mentioned earlier?" With her free hand she reached into Clover's other pocket and pulled out his dagger. Now that they got his flute and dagger, the only thing they should worry about are his illusions. Now where to put them..

"Sure thing," As she said that, Ayano headed for the kitchen. The first thing she spotted when she arrived was Varmill's cat. Smiling at the little fluffball, Ayano scratched the cat behind it's ear. However, she shouldn't get distracted, she needed to get the washcloth for the holiday after all. Getting the washcloth, she washed it over with warm water at the sink, then squeezed most of the water out of the cloth. When she walked into bedroom, and handed Varmill the cloth, she couldn't help but wonder aloud, "What should we do if Clover wakes up? He might wreck the place."

Clover's luck was not with him today. His eyes were beginning to get heavy and the wind was causing him to shiver. He knew he tend to get sick easily, but the gloom should be protecting him from things like fever. As time continued to pass, he felt his conscious fading. Deciding to finally give in, Clover closed his eyes, and went unconscious. - - - - - When Varmill hanged up the phone and asked her a question, Ayano grinned. "Of course, but we have to go somewhere so nobody can see me summoning a tunnel." Grabbing the holiday's hand, she took him to an empty alleyway. After making sure there were no mortals around, with a tap of a foot, a tunnel was created. "West of Newgrange, hopefully this will be close enough to reach him." With that, the two jumped into the tunnel. At the other side, harsh wind greeted them. "Jeez, it's freezing. We need to look for Clover quick and find a warm place to talk to." Just as she said that, she spotted a figure 30 meters away from them. "Wait..is that him?" Ayano ran toward the figure and there was Clover, lying on the ground. Being extremely cautious, she slowly walked up to the boy and dared to put her hand on his forehead. "What the, Clover has a huge fever!"

"Clover? Angry at Varmill?" Ayano knew they were friends before Clover was infected with the gloom, but why was Clover mad at him besides the gloom influencing him? Suddenly she realized something. "Wait, did you just say that you were infected?" It was true Clover only gave them a small cut, but it still pissed her off that he was going off infecting holidays. After thinking for abit Ayano sighed, "We understand that you're leaving so you won't hurt us so..please take care of yourself." She thought about Grim when he was in pain from being infected. She didn't want anymore holidays or entities suffering from this infection. She turned to Varmil as she whispered back. "I know she says not to go look for Clover, but it's your choice since he's your friend." - - - - - "Tch, my head hurts." Clover muttered to himself. He clutched his head. Ever since he spared Aurora, a huge headache washed over him. Feeling a little dizzy, he lied down on the grass. Suddenly, a random thought occured in his head. 'Isn't Christmas almost here?' He thought about Varmill who was the only holiday who gave him a present. For some reason, the green holiday could always guess what Clover wanted for Christmas. Thinking about Varmill made his headache even worse. 'Dammit, could I be sick?' Well, he was lying here in the cold.

((Yes he is Key,^^ but not for long. )) Just like what Varmill did, Ayano looked around the books lining the shelves. She was tempted to pull a book out and start reading, but now wasn't the time. 'After this whole gloom situation is over, I'll probably come here to read the books anyway.' As Ayano thought about this, she pictured herself sitting on one of the comfy chairs with a lamp over her. While she was sipping on tea, she would read a wonderful, entertaining book, and hopefully be next to the warm fireplace. After thinking about that, she felt some pressure lifting off her shoulders. Smiling back at Varmill, she said. "If you don't wanna get wet, we could use something else for transportation. " She didn't want to mention her tunnels with the librarian around, but the holiday should know what she's talking about.

Shion slowly opened her eyes. For a second, she nearly forgot where she was until the memories of the event yesterday struck her. "I have to get ready for class!" Wide awake now, she grabbed her uniform making a mad dash toward the bathroom as she nearly tripped on the floor. After she changed into her uniform, she was about to leave when she noticed Anthony still in the room. Walking over to his bedside she called out to him, "Um Anthony, we need to get to class.."

((Sorry for not responding yesterday, I watched a sad movie so by the time I got home, I was emotionally broken.)) ((Aww Key, ya sure? I was hoping Aurora would escape but alrightyy. Clover will go easy on ya.)) As the smoke subsided, it was revealed that the illusion broke. The area was back to normal: no cliff, but just an anicent tomb that looked like it was about to crumble. The real Clover walked over to the fallen holiday with a face of disgust? Pity? "So you attempted to break the illusion to avoid my rules about catching me? Honestly, you surprise me too much." He kneeled down and took out his dagger. Something in his brain told him to kill the girl but Clover somehow resisted. Instead, he held up her arm and put a tiny cut on her forearm with his dagger. That was enough to get her infected. Getting up from the ground, he started to walk away, ignoring the humans who were still asleep. "You're lucky I didn't make you suffer. However, next time..." Clover's tone was a mix of worry and anger. "...don't get in my way, you're on our side now right?" With that, he continued to walk off into the meadow. - - - - - Ayano couldn't help but grin the whole time. It's been awhile since she last walked around the human world. She was always working in her underground realm like, helping the bunny workers, painting the eggs, and now with the whole gloom problem, she couldn't catch a single break. As Varmil held her hand, she feel different. Is this freedom? Suddenly to her surprise, the green holiday let go. "Oh no it's fine! It's nice being outside afterall." She responded. Then as the library shook, Ayano frowned. Her ears were picking up something but the hat she was wearing was limiting her hearing range. "What..is this bad feeling?"

((Really? The only infected holidays that are actually doing anything is Clover and April. Where are the others? Oh and that's a relief, I'll try my best to development Clover into a good bad guy ^^ Also, I wasn't sure whether you wanted to escape or not but when Aurora flied toward the sky, I guess I got message. Also, if you use alot of power, you could slice the illusion. Like, alot of power.)) 'Throw him naked in the snow?' A weird thought appeared in her mind but she quickly pushed it aside. When Varmill asked her a question, she tapped her chin. "Hmm, I can summon tunnels so we could get there faster..sure I'll go with you Varmill." Ayano grinned as she faced Aoba and the others. "Varmill and I will go get the book, you guys stay here and take care of Nick, don't do anything crazy." Tapping her foot against the floor, a tunnel suddenly opened up. "After you," She told the green holiday as she put on a hat to cover her ears. - - - - - One of Clover's fakes spoke. "Not bad, however my illusions won't even compare to this when I take over-" A sudden shock covered his face as the fake who was speaking clutched his head. 'What the hell was that?' Clover thought. 'My mouth just spoke out randomly.' Recovering from his shock, Clover put on his usual smirk. "Anyway, prepare to die, Aurora." As he said that, the clones charged.

Chie is such a cute girl ^^

Shion nearly dropped a screwdriver when the blade hit the wall. The few seconds of peace she felt quickly vanished. Hearing Lucifer asking Viridem her name, she decided to introduce herself first. "Well I'm Shion, and this is Viridem." She nervously laughed. "I-I hope we get along and have a great year at Beacon together." Shion's tail started shaking, she didn't want a fight to break out. A flashback of Viridem beating up a couple students back at the auditorium kept appearing in her mind.

((Well, I'm trying to be evil. :rolleyes: )) ((And Hargleblargleboo, I just find it ironic how one of my character (Ayano) think you're a great and responsible holiday, while my other character (Clover), just wants to see your character suffer. O___O)) "I agree," Ayano replied to Varmill. She faced Nick who was lying on the couch. With an annoyed look, she walked over to him and started listening for his heart beat. "I'm no doctor but his heart beat seems..fine," She poked Nick's cheek. "I wonder why he's not waking up." If there was truly something wrong with Nick, then Christmas would definitely be in trouble. - - - - - "Oh? You're pretty clever but.." After Aurora flew up about 20 feet, she hit a dead end. "If I wasn't infected with this gloom, you would've easily break through my illusion. I mean, this illusion is influenced by gloom after all, my original abilities don't even match to this!" Clover's tone was playful, yet haunting. "Now come back down, before I clip your wings." Suddenly, more fake Clovers appeared out of thin air, grabbing onto Aurora's wings trying to force her down. They can't infect her since those fakes don't have daggers, their mission right now was to drag her down. ((If you want, I can tell you how to escape, though you're pretty smart so you might figure it out yourself. ^__^ It involves slashing.))

((Pssttt, the third guess is correct..)) Clover didn't move as Aurora flew toward him with her scythe slicing through his body like clay; however, the Clover she attacked was just an illusion as the fake Clover melted into the floor. Suddenly, the angel could hear the green entity's voice from all sides. "If my guess is correct, I bet you're trying to figure out how to break out of this illusion, am I correct?" A dark chuckle echoed around the area. "Well, since I'm such a nice kid, I'll tell you how..." He paused. "...catch me. And I mean the real me, not some puny illusion." After he said that, hundreds of Clover wielding a dagger rose from the ground. "Though I'd advise you to be careful, one slice from that dagger and the gloom will enter your body." Another laugh. "Or should I torture you first? I would like to see a holiday scream, and I would loveee to see Varmill scream, that would be lovely!" There was a long silence before he finally said. "Now, try to catch me like those horrible holidays did..if you can." Just as he said that, the hundred Clovers advanced toward Aurora. Is the real Clover hidden with his other illusion selves? Or somewhere else? - - - - - Ayano's ears twitched uncomfortably. Before she could respond to Varmill, Aoba already picked up the phone. 'Something..is wrong. My ears are picking up very disturbing noises...the biting of flesh..' As she continued to listen, she could slowly hear heavy breathing coming from someone. Shaken by what she heard, she turned to the group. "I-I just heard something, I think Grim is in trouble."

I tried. ;_: thankfully, girly Kirito and Key gave me courage.

((Wait, who's Razzmatazz?)) Shion sighed miserably. Well, since most of her teammates were heading to their dorm, she might as well go too. Following behind Viridem, they arrived at their dorm as Shion opened the door. Seeing the bunk beds and their stuff lying on the floor, she picked up her suit case as she hauled her bag over to the bottom bunk. Immediately, she took out a screwdriver from her case and began disassembling one of her gauntlets. She needed to check the condition, since this was the first time she ever used the gauntlets against those gigantic Grims. Feeling right at home, Shion hummed happily, her ears relaxed. 'I wonder if this academy have some kind of workshop?'
