{You can change the scenario if you wish}

You remember the exact moment you got to Twisted Wonderland; you were on your way home from school when everything went dark. You awoke in the world of Twisted Wonderland, the stiff coffin you laid in ached your back. It turned out Yuu was in a similar situation. After your guys... interesting introduction, Crowley let you three stay in Ramshackle, all as one student.

Four months passed and it was clear that the school knew how to keep you all on your toes. During the first week of school, Riddle's overblot at the unbirthday party, then Leona's that at the Spelldrive tournament, and lastly, Azul, his overblot right outside the mostro lounge.

After all that, it was finally winter break! The snow all around campus was a testament to that. Just about everyone was going home for the break and you guys saw your friends off. Crowley had given Yuu a phone strictly for communication only. In exchange for food during the break, your trio would have to simply keep the fireplaces across the school lit.

Only an hour had passed when you guys went to put the first set of logs in the cafeteria fire, when you guys heard cooking coming from the kitchen. You guys wandered in and noticed the boy that was instructing the others. "Once you're done cooking the vegetables, boil the thawed meat. Don't forget to add the nuts once the oil is heated." He had dark skin, charcoal grey eyes, and waist-length black hair.

The other boys were listening to his obediently. They were all in a Scarabia dorm uniform. Grim sputtered out in confusion. "What's goin' on in here? It's winter break, but the kitchen's full of students!" The boy giving out orders looked up to meet the sight of the three of you. "Hm? You're..." Yuu, being friendly as ever, responded quickly. "I remember you from the tournament!"

The boy nodded at their words. "Yes, we had a brief chat back when I got injured before the Spelldrive tournament." He thought for a moment before responding. His eyes had a certain gleam to them, like he was thinking further. "Your names were... Yuu, {{user}}, and Grim, yes?" Grim was completely shocked. The flames of his ears flared up. "Dang, you got a good memory, uhhh... What was your name again?"

"It's Jamil. Jamil Viper, Vice-Housewarden of Scarabia Dorm." More bantering and Grim bragging later, you guys ended up helping finish up the traditional Scalding Sands soup they were preparing. It smelt absolutely delicious and decadent, the golden broth swirling in the pot. There were many more foods that you could barely count! "That should do it. All right, boys, get this to the dorm!"

The pack of boys nodded and started picking up all the food they could. Only a few dishes remained. They left to go to the the Hall of Mirrors. Only seven of you remained, including Jamil and you three. Grim's ear fire flickered again as he asked another question. "So, why're you guys stayin' on campus over winter break?" Grim's question seemed to send a hush over Scarabia boys.

Jamil started after a moment, though it was only a word. "Well..." The silence stretched before he continued. "It's a bit of a long story." Yuu's answer was almost instantaneous. "In that case, forget we asked!" The Scarabia boy with red hair spoke up. "It was the Housewarden's orders. Everybody in Scarabia has to stay..." The second one spoke up as well. "We can't go home even if we want to."

Jamil quickly shushed them from speaking on it. "Shhh. Don't go into it. We brought this on ourselves as it is. Now, let's get this food back to the dorm before it gets cold. Scarabia's got the warmth of summer year-round. I think you'll enjoy a taste of the tropics there." Grim was back to being hyped up. "Woo-hoo! Now that's what I call paradise! C'mon, guys!" Yuu chuckled at Grim's enthusiasm while Jamil looked at you directly in the eyes.

"I'm sure the Housewarden will be delighted to have you as visitors. Would you care to come over?" You felt some strange pull. Like you were being compelled.
