(THIS TAKES PLACE AFTER CHAPTER 1.)
It was 07:00 A.M.
madeline lied awake in her bed, it was already morning time and she barely slept because of the last trial, I mean Pepito's cousins were bad hats, but she never expected one of them. pablito. to go so far as to kill Giselle, that was sad, sure she didn't like him but he didn't deserve execution, she just hoped his brothers paquito and panchito are doing well at least, the short girl sighed as she got up.
Madeline fogg: "I should probably go visit the others at the cafeteria... Miss clavel and the others are probably waiting for me and getting worried.." The girl mumbled to herself as she jumped off her bed, going to her closet to put on her usual yellow jacket over her blue dress and yellow hat as she left her dorm room.
Madeline's expression was tired and spaced out as she walked through the hallway, passing by the dormitory as she reached the door to the cafeteria, opening it to reveal the others already there, although a few characters were absent, either they got lost or stayed in their dorm rooms, some were recovering pretty well, others... Not so much, though panchito's behavior seemed to catch her eye, the small boy was wearing a different outfit now, a light teal shirt and capri blue overalls, and he to be stitching something to his blue undershirt and overalls (he was stitching pablito's clothes to his own in order to not forget him), he was clearly holding back tears, and his arms had bandages around them, which was fairly obvious what could've happened since he had little to no sewing experience, he occasionally held pablito's uniform close to his chest, getting more and more annoyed as he looked at his body then at the uniform, muttering about the uniform not exactly being for his size, however he was still mean as always, snapping back at anyone who questioned his injuries, Paquito just stared at him with a weirded out and freaked out expression at what his younger brother is doing.
Madeline waved her hand hi to the remaining people in the room as she walked over to her seat, glancing at Pepito, who's expression looked slightly out of it and almost broken as he said a dull "Buenos Dias" to Madeline, his hands and legs were slightly bruised, indicating he probably beat himself up or someone hurt him.
Madeline fogg: "Bonjour pepito... s-still recovering from that huh..?" Madeline asked, putting her hand on the young boy's shoulder.
Pepito: "C...Ci, although I didn't like him or the rest of my cousins, he didn't deserve this.." pepito responded, sighing as he face planted on the table, before he immediately lifted his head up again. "A-aah!!! Oh... didn't... i-ishimaru-kun say something about.... not s-slouching? Ugh my head hurts.. Dios Mio..." pepito seemed unsure and lost, which is understandable considering the way his feelings and sanity were tossed, it almost made him feel nauseous, madeline was about to speak but was interrupted when ibuki slammed her hands on the table, startling everyone and Pepito slipped off from his seat on accident, in the process panchito accidentally dropped the needle on his arm, fifi paused on doing her lacework patterns to look at ibuki, before she got into a coughing fit.
ibuki mioda: "hey! ibuki just got a really really big idea!" fifi and madeline look at eachother in curiosity, Panchito tiredly took the needle out of his arm, being irritated as he watched it bleed. "Great... another wound I gotta hide." He thought, pepito got up and face planted on the table again, before immediately lifting his head up again while yelling out "I'M A-AWAKE!!!" Before he immediately face planted on the table once again, groaning in embarrassment.
