Ramshackle Dorm - Your Room

Grim	snooore* Mmm. Didja see that... *snore* Totally wrecked 'em with my power shot... *Snore*

I'm too sore to sleep.

Grim's sleep talk has me wide awake.

Ramshackle Dorm

Wow, it's gotten really cold.

I wonder when I'll be able to go home.

Boy with Horns

Hm? Who's that over there?

A ghost?!

A trespasser?!

Boy with Horns

Well, this is a surprise. A child of man, are you?

(This guy's got horns on his head.)

(A yellow armband... Which house is that?)

Boy with Horns

Do you live here? I was under the impression that this dorm had been abandoned for some time. I quite enjoy having a place where I could go to enjoy the peace of solitude.

Who are you?

I'm the dorm prefect, [MC].

Boy with Horns Who am I...? You really don't know who I am? Interesting. What is your name? I'm the dorm prefect, [MC]. It's [MC]. But I believe it's customary to introduce oneself first? Boy with Horns [MC]... An unusual name, to be sure. I am... No, never mind. I'd rather you remain unaware. Boy with Horns You wish to know my name? Hm. I'd rather you remain unaware.

Boy with Horns [MC]... An unusual name, to be sure. I am... No, never mind. I'd rather you remain unaware.

Boy with Horns

It's for your own benefit, I assure you. Instead, I will permit you to call me by a name of your choosing. Although you may one day regret it...

(This guy's a little strange.)

(Why is everyone in this school like this?)

Boy with Horns

But alas... If you have taken up residence here, then this abandoned dorm is no longer "abandoned." Pity. I shall have to find some other ruins for my next nocturnal constitutional. Farewell.

He's gone...?

Ruins? Was he some kind of archaeologist?

Savanaclaw Dorm - Leona's Room

Ruggie

You must be tired, Leona. I've brought you dinner. And on the way, I got a little "work" done.

Leona

Always there when I need ya, Ruggie.

Ruggie

Oh, it's a pleasure to be of service to you, Housewarden.

Leona

You always say that, don't you? Even though you're really doing this for yourself.

Ruggie

Perish the thought, Leona! It's a pleasure to be of service to OUR cause. All of us want to turn the world upside down. That's precisely why the hyenas joined hands with the King of Beasts in the first place—to improve their lot in life forevermore. I'm pretty much doing the same thing.

Leona

Then make sure you're careful on your "hunts." Don't leave any evidence behind.

Ruggie

Shyeheehee! You should know how hyenas work. We pick our prey clean to the bone. Incidentally, Leona—any thoughts as to who my next target should be?

Leona

Oh, I've got an idea. How about a little wolf who likes to eavesdrop?

Ruggie

Huh?

Leona

I know you're there, frosh. No use hiding.
