Spike + Vampire: Highschool of Monsters (Freshman)

Dreadmire Academy Faculty Office - The Day After The Attack

Grogar and the other members of the faculty were all sitting at a long table to discuss the recent attack from the Order. Thanks to the actions of the students and faculty, they were able to come out on top. The Hunters responsible have been detained in the dungeon beneath the arena. Grogar used his magic to repair the buildings that have been destroyed during the attack. A member of the Security Team was reading off a casualty report.

"Thanks to the students fighting, we were able to minimalize casualties," the werewolf girl said. "Around 63 students and 5 teachers were injured, but recovering".

"And how many dead?" Grogar asked. The werewolf girl's face became grave.

"From what we found, 34 students and 8 teachers were killed," she replied. "We were able to identify them and we've already notified their families. They'll be along tomorrow to take the bodies. We've offered to pay for the funeral expenses".

Grogar lowered his head in sadness along with the rest of the teachers gathered.

"Good. You may go back to guarding the prisoners," Grogar said.

The werewolf guard took her leave. The rest of the teachers had quite a bit to discuss. Zecora was the first to speak up.

"What should we do?" she asked.

"For the dead, I think we should hold a service tomorrow for them," Cheerilee replied.

"Agreed," the others agreed.

"What about the Hunters we captured? What should we do with them?" Spitfire asked.

That earned angry looks and vengeance in their eyes. They were all on the verge of dropping their human forms.

"They should be killed immediately!" Flintheart replied. "They have to pay for this!"

"We've got them detained and made sure they can't use their magic," Grogar said. "We should turn them over to the authorities so they can be tried under monster law. Besides, we still need to interrogate them for information before we hand them over".

"Speaking of information, there's a concern I feel I should voice here and now," Flintheart said. "Someone at this school is a traitor".

Everyone in the room started murmuring about what Flintheart just said. Cheerliee looked to him.

"How could someone at this school be a traitor? We're all monsters here, so it doesn't make sense!" Cheerilee rebutted.

"It's the only thing that does make sense! Think about it, how did they know where this school was located?!" Flintheart said. "And how did they know to bring Enochian Blades, weapons that kill Demons?!"

Once again, the room was filled with murmurs of agreement to Flintheart's words. They started to look at each other with suspicion.

"A teacher or student could've told them where we are!" Fleetfoot said.

"Okay, so who could it be?" Celestia asked.

"Maybe the traitor's in this room right now!" Zecora said.

"Maybe it's you. Can you tell us with complete certainty that you're innocent?" Spitfire asked. "Look, if we start a witch hunt amongst ourselves, it will cripple us".

"Agreed. We aren't prepared to handle this," Grogar said. "That's why I've called in some... outside help".

Everyone in the room all looked to Grogar. They all had wide eyes.

"You mean... you called them?" Flintheart asked.

"Yep. Tomorrow, we're going to be visited by the Nyx Inquisition," Grogar replied.

In Canterlot City

A tall man sat looking out the penthouse window. There was a certain beauty to the city's environment. The door opened to reveal a short Harpy woman wearing a black cloak with the insignia of the Nyx Inquisition, a stylized red iron maiden with a pair of bat wings.

"Sir, we've just received a report," she said. "The school Dreadmire Academy was recently attacked by the Order of Artemis".

The man shot around to look at his subordinate. His handsome features were framed by a flowing sea of black hair.

"What?! Are they alright?!" he asked.

"While most of the buildings were destroyed and there was a small battalion of Battle Golems, there were relatively few casualties," the woman replied.

The man breathed a sigh of relief. "What about Celestia and Luna? Are they alright?"

The woman gave a cheeky smile. "Yes, your brides are perfectly fine".

"I am so happy to hear that. What of the Hunters responsible?" he asked.

"From what we've heard, there were two Hunters involved, both experienced War Witches. And that a single student took them out," the woman said.

"What?! A single student took them down?" the man asked. "That is very impressive. We should present him the Nyx Medal of Bravery, at least".

"That's not all, sir. There appears to be a traitor among the students and teachers at the school," the woman said. "Headmaster Grogar wants us to investigate this suspicion and take the detained Hunters into our custody".

"Very good. Prepare a small squad to be ready to move out," the man said. "I will lead this investigation, myself".

"As you wish, Grand Inquisitor Sombra," the woman said before she left to assemble a squad.

"I'm looking forward to seeing my brides again. I may want to meet this student and congratulate him for fighting the Hunters!" Sombra said.

He would see his brides, shake the hero student's hand, and root out the traitor. If there was a traitor, he would do everything in his power to make sure they stayed behind bars for eternity. Sombra would keep his community safe for his loved ones. He swore on it.
