《Winter Wonderland》The Usurper from the wilds: part 13

Riddle began to explain the finest of details of this plan.
"Huh. That's actually not half bad, dude." Ace smiled, nodding at the plan after Riddle finished explaining it.
"That is quite the plan, Housewarden Rosehearts!" Deuce agreed.
"Sounds like 'ol Cay-Cay has a lot of prep work to do before the big day!" Cater chuckled. Riddle turned to Cater with a smile on his face. "Thank you, Cater. Take care not to raise any suspicions." he said sternly.
"So, H-B-U, Jack? You heart Riddle's plan. Are you in? Or out?" Cater asked, turning to the wolf.
"There's nothing cowardly about it, at least" Jack started off before nodding his head in agreement. "I suppose we can work together this one time."
"Really feelin' the trust there, Jack" Grim said in a sarcastic manner.
"Cool beans. Let's all get back to our dorms for today. I know I'm about ready to keel over." Ace complained, stretching a bit
"Yeah, and I'm starving!" Grim explained.
Just before everyone turn away to leave, they were intruppted by Riddle. "Hold on a moment, freshmen. Because of the information it yielded, I am going to overlook your flagrant violation of rule #6: '' But rest assured that if it happens again, it will cost you your heads. Are we clear?"
"Yes sir, Housewarden Rosehearts" answered the 1st years.
"...yeah" Jack nodded.
Riddle then walked off with Y/n as she waved goodbye to them.
Jack then leans down to Ace. "Man, I thought he looked like a wuss, but your housewarden is just as scary as Housewarden Y/n" he whispered.
"You ain't wrong" Ace sighed. "Mistake him from a friendly hedgehog and you'll quickly learn he's actually a furious prcupine. Y/n is the same, except, she is like a beautiful flower only to learn that she is a carnivorous plant"
"Let's all get well-rested for tournament day!" Yuuna says, pumping her fist in the air.
During the conversation, Y/n took it upon herself to call a certain vice housewarden.
"Hello, beastie~ Anything you need?" the voice asked from the phone. It was Lilia.
"Hello, Lilia. I came to ask you for Diasomnia's assistance on our little plan for the tournament" Y/n asnwered.
"I see. I'm listening~"
"Alright, so here's the deal"
"Ruggie, what's this I heard about you gettin' chased around by the Heartslabyul and Amaryllis kids at lunch?" Leona asked before continuing. "You idiot! I told you a thousand times to make sure you didn't leave any evidence behind!" he scolded the mischievous culprit.
"I...I didn't!" Ruggie panicked, not liking Leona's expression. He just barely escape from being impaled by Y/n's leg and now he has to deal with a pissed off Leona. "That was come kind of fluke. You don't need to worry about a thing, Boss. They've got no evidence whatsoever. Cross my heart and hope to die!" Ruggie said, making a excuse.

Leona let out a hmph from his throat. "Anyway, I secured the cooperation of that creepy squid at Octavinelle, but it didn't come cheap." he snarled. "If you idiots mess things up on tournament day, I am gonna fry you up and eat you myself"
"The main dish is coming along nicely." Ruggie smirked.
"Don't worry. We're gonna have those Diasomnia jerks pleading for mercy on tournament day!" a resident shouted.
"I do look foward to watching this all play out." Ruggie grinned even wider, looking up towards the sky. "Oh, how the world will praise us when they see you standing over a battered Malleus Draconia and finally get to play against Camelius once again! Maybe some top corporate recruiters will even take an interest in a little ol' hyena like me"
"Even the pro leagues will be scouting you" a resident added.
"Look at all'a you- celebratin' when you've only just suck your claws into your prey" Leona laughed, having a smirk plastered on his face, making the shadow behind him, Superbia, chuckle darkly.
"You're gonna be the most famous of all, Leona! Y/n Chione might even take an interest in you"
"Everyone in the Sunset Savanna is gonna have second thoughts about who should be the next king!"
"Succession ain't got nothin' to do with ability" Leona sighed, mumbling, getting a bit irritated.
"Huh?" Ruggie questioned.
"Nothin" Leona yawned. "I'm headin' to bed, All of you, scram." he ordered.
"Yessir. Sleep well, Housewarden." Ruggie and the residents walked off to their own rooms.
"As if conquerin' this school is gonna fix anything in the real world..." Leona mumbled bitterly. "" Superbia said, hovering around Leona.
"" the shadow smirked, as blot continued to cover Leona's magestone.
""
Unknown to them, a mini ryuu was watching the whole time. "I seems that M'lady would want to here about this.." it was Anya, who snuck inside to gather intel for Y/n. After he was done, he flew away, going into a portal in the sky that lead to Amaryllis.
"It seems I'm back here again" Y/n sighed.
"Indeed. And I've brought a guess to assist you." Zadkiel smiled.
"Hello, little cryo archon. Nice to see you again" a female voice said, smirking. It was the voice of Murata, the pryo archon of Natlan.
"Eh? What are you guys planning?" Y/n asked.
"Zadkiel told me about the issue, so I came to help you like the Anemo archon. After all, this Leona guys is interesting" Murata answered.
"She is telling you to the truth. Superbia has just about the right amount of blot to have Leona go overblot soon. It seems like it will be during the tournament, as the stars say" Zadkiel spoke.

"I see...what will I be able to do" Y/n said.
Zadkiel and Murata frowned, not liking their plan, but Superbia is far too dangerous. "You are gonna have to remove your 'heart of frost'. In that way, you will be able to use your pale flames, powered by Murata, to purify Leona." Zadkiel explained.
Y/n's eyes widen in shock. "But...if I use too much power, won't I lose control and hurt others...? Like during the cataclysm?" she asked, shivering in fear.
Zadkiel smiled gently, placing a hand on her shoulder. "You will be fine. You are overwhelmed by negative emotion nor did someone steal it. If you do, however, go berserk, Murata will be there to save you"
"You don't little one. Just trust yourself, and everyone will be alright in the end. You must set your heart ablaze and burn the darkness to ashes!" Murata encouraged.
Y/n sighed in relief and nodded, light shining above them once again. "It seems that you are awake. Remember, the stars will protect you" Zadkiel said.
Y/n would smile "alright. I will defeat Superbia. Down with the lion king!" she shouts before being engulfed in light.
Murata looked at Zadkiel when Y/n faded away completely. "Do you think she'll be okay? After all, it's your blossom of Pride, after all" the god of war asked, crossing her arms.
Zadkiel would chuckle lightly. "I have faith that Y/n will defeat her, just how it is planned. After all, I can't explain the full details of my other self's plan. If I do, then where is the fun in spoiling?"
Murata would chuckle as well. "You're quite the cheeky one, aren't you. After all, creating chaos to protect the light as it shines...sounds exactly like you"
"..." Y/n woke up only to see a certain bunny laying on top of her chest, causing her to smile. "Hello, Dottie" she petted the bunny's head, causing the girl to wake up. "Morning M'lady" the bunny said, twitching her nose a bit.
Y/n would chuckle and sat up, picking Dottie up. "You can go back to the sub-space to sleep more, ok"
Dottie nodded, as she hopped a bit in the air, disappearing right after.
Y/n used her magic to get ready. After she was done, she opened the door to see Jack. "ara? Are you were to wake Yuuna?" she asked.
Jack flinched in surprise, having an embarrassing blush. "M-mhm"
"I see. Alright. Go ahead, I'll head out first" Y/n said and Jack nodded.
Jack went to wake up Yuuna and Grim, as Y/n flew to the Coliseum, where the tournament would be at.
"hm, excellent attendance again this year" Azul smiled, looking around the side street who was alive with activity. Children and adults, along with students who weren't on the team were around. The children were playing around as well, wearing different dorm armbands to support the team they're supporting, along with merch of Camelius.
There were a lot of posters of the legendary player. Camelius had golden colored hair with eyes that reflect the stars on water.
Quite the handsome fella he was.
"I'll have to check how the kiosks are doing. After all, now that I'm the head of the planning committee, we can't have merchants underreporting their sales, now can we?" Azul Ashengrotto chuckled.
"Housewarden, everything's ready at the coliseum. The players will begin arriving in ten minutes. Camelius as well" Jade spoke, looking up from his phone, standing by Azul's side.
"Jady, Floyd, excellent work." Azul smiled, thanking them.
"Hey, Azul, what's the deal? Why do you have players' procession starting at the eat building this year?" Floyd asked, noticing the crowd of people at the east building. "The paths are so clogged with attendees that it'll be real hard for players to get through'em!"
"That was a speical request from a certain client. I'm not privy to ALL the particulars." Azul said, lowering his voice so others don't hear.
"Ah, I understand. So this is related to that magic-boosting potion you were making yesterday." Jade let out a grin, remembering the event.
"Wait, you understand WHAT? What does rerouting the players have to do with magic potions?" Floyd asked in a whiny tone.
"Shhh. Someone might hear us. Lower your voices, espeically since the Fatui are around." Jade said in a quiet tone, pointing to Fatui agents walking around.
"Oooh! Is something shady about to go down?" Floyd asked, getting closer to his brother and friend.
"That potion is only going to last for about 30 seconds. What could he possibly be plotting, I wonder?" Azul mumbled, pushing up his glasses.
"Azul, you needn't feigh ignorance. You know exactly what he's planning, don't you?" Jade asked.
"Do I? I wonder! Fufufu" Azul chuckled darkly.
"Aw, come on! Tell me too!" Floyd whined.
"Heheh. And I was just thinking I wanted to refurbish the lounge, so this offer came at a most opportune time. But that's enough chit-chat. Time is money! Let's go see how concession sales are going." Azul says, pointing toward for the trio to head to their next location.

Apex Predator
Earth is a fairly small place, but it's all Bath has. It's the only home he's ever known for all of his 500-or-so-million years of life. One day, Bath realized his treasured Earth was being drawn into the next mass extinction ahead of schedule. So, fascinated by the humans and their quick rise to power (after all, setting off a mass extinction is a pretty sizable achievement), what's a nearly all-powerful, somewhat bored, morally ambiguous, savagely violent, shapeshifting alien entity to do other than assume the form of a human and do some front-line investigating? Little did Bath know he would soon stumble upon a mysterious human organization with a gate leading to planets eons away. And that's just the beginning... A story with aliens, intergalactic space travel, mind powers, and an abundance of adventure! Author's note: ON HIATUS! Hello and thank you for reading! Constructive criticism and grammar-policing are both appreciated. Parts 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 are complete at 1271 pages! Part 7 is in progress! If you've ever read any other web serials, you might've noticed that authors get better with time (that is, their art or writing improves). Wutosama of Metaworld Chronicles noted that the first 20 chaps are always a mess. This is also the case with Apex Predator. The first two parts (ranging just under 30 chapters, or 161 pages) are absolutely subpar. While I have edited them as of 7-10-18, they require a rewrite, which is currently in the works but not complete. For a sample that gives insight into what the latter ~80% of the story's writing style is like, check out chapter 56. Vote for Apex Predator on Top Web Fiction! The Apex Predator Discord is here. Cover: original work done by me, the author, caerulex.
