Kiruma: akumo have you seen minori around anywhere?
Akumo: who?...
Kiruma: don’t play stupid, the girl with the eyepatch!
Akumo: oh…I think I saw her leaving school while I was looking for this class
Kiruma: seriously? what am I going to do with that girl, go take your seat!
Gin: hey sit here
Akumo: sure!
Kiruma: let’s start without her! First off you’re going to learn about the basics of magic!
*A week has passed by in north district academy, hayami is standing by a door as she enters*
Hayami: Ms. Kiruma can I ask you something?
Kiruma: what is it?
Hayami: its about minori, she hasn’t been to school for an entire week
Kiruma: oh that? I was going to do something about it but I got caught up with all this work. so if you don’t mind, can you get her to come to school for me?
Hayami: wait me?!
Kiruma: you are the president of the student council and it’s your job to unite all the students isn’t that right?
Hayami: yes ma’am I’ll do my best!
*Hayami walks out of kiruma’s office, kiruma grabs her phone off her desk and calls minori*
Kiruma: minori where are you?
*minori leans on the railing of a balcony smoking a cigarette looking at the ocean*
Minori: sensei?! I’m busy….
Kiruma: I’ve noticed you haven’t been coming to school, mind explaining why?
Minori: oh…I’m sorry sensei but I can’t be in a place like that I just can’t fit in with these people I’m different
Kiruma: everyone is different minori and you’re still a child you never know what can happen and like I said this is your new life and you need to learn how to coup with it
Minori: sensei I….just can’t they will never accept someone like me
Kiruma: you won’t know until you try come to school Monday and try to fit in and also stop smoking!
*Minori holds the smoke in her mouth*
Kiruma: it’s bad for your lungs and can kill you
*Minori coughs*
Minori: it won’t kill me I’m able to regenerate and I’ll give it a try and I’ll do it for you sensei!! Sensei?....she hung up…
*the school bell has rung, within kiruma’s class akumo lays sleep on his desk*
Hayami: akumo wake up class is starting!!
*Kiruma walks in*
Kiruma: alright class sit down and….
*She sees akumo sleeping and gets angry*
Kiruma: NO SLEEPING IN CLASS!!!
*Kiruma grabs and tosses akumo out the window*
Hayami: Ms. Kiruma! Why would you do that?!!
Kiruma: Sorry I woke up with a bit of a headache so any inconvenience makes me angry, now to introduce your new classmate!

*the door opens as akumo suddenly appears bleeding from his face*
Akumo: why would you do that?!!
*Kiruma lifts akumo up and sits him back to his seat*
Kiruma: now as I was saying….
Akumo: oh that mean girl from last time is waiting outside
Gin: oh, I heard you almost got your butt kicked that’s hilarious!!
Akumo: she was strong, and her punches really hurt you wouldn’t know because you’re not that strong
Gin: but I did better than everyone in the final test!!
Brock: still almost lost to a girl that’s not manly
*Kiruma slams the desk*
Kiruma: not another word form any of you do you understand?
*Both shaking in fear*
Gin&akumo: y-yes ma’am….
Kiruma: now for our new student please come in minori Adler!
*Minori enters with her head tilted down, she rubs her am in nervousness*
Minori: hi….
Gin: DAMMNN!!!
*kiruma shoots an eraser at gin knocking him out while akumo holds his breath in fear*
Kiruma: would you like to say anything about yourself before you sit down?
Minori: I wouldn’t, if you don’t mind
Kiruma: then go find a seat
*Minori walks past akumo still holding his breath*
Minori: so you’re in here too, I expect some impressive things from you Mr. High regard
*She walks past hayami and as they both look at each other not giving her care in the world as she sits in the back*
Kiruma: alright let’s get started! And akumo you can stop holding your breath I’m not going to knock you out
*Akumo stops holding his breath and starts breathing*
Isaac: was that necessary?
*Later in the class kiruma teaches as everyone does there work, minori looks at the paper in annoyance and constantly taps her finger and her foot*
Kiruma: everyone take out your test books and partner up with someone!
*Akumo and gin partner up, hayami and Isaac partner up and Sheila walks up to minori*
Sheila: h-hi I was wondering if you would want to partner up with me?
Brock: hey but what about me?
*Minori stands and looks at Sheila with a deadly look, minori pulls out her hand to Sheila but hayami grabs her arm*
Hayami: what do you think your doing?
Minori: get your damn hand off of me! I was just trying to be friendly!!
*Minori shoves hayami out of the way*
Kiruma: minori!!
Minori: sensei I can’t with these people!! They clearly don’t trust me around them!! So I don’t have to be here!
Hayami: just wait a minute!!
Minori: what do you want?
Hayami: you can’t leave here you’re an official student and you have to stay and learn just like the rest of us!
Minori: I don’t have to do anything I leave when I want
Hayami: since you want to play the hard way then minori Adler I challenge you to combat battle!!
*Everyone surprised*
Minori: what’s the point?
Hayami: the point is if I win you will stay here as a student for all four years of your life
Minori: and if I lose?
Hayami: then I’ll leave the school for good
Isaac: but president you can’t!!
Hayami: I’ve already made up my mind on beating you!
Minori: fine I take you up on that offer it’s not like you can ever beat me in a fight anyway
Brock: oh yeah a official fight!!
Akumo: this is so exciting!
Gin: you got that right two hot babes Fighting it out oh I cant wait
Kiruma: everyone report to the battle arena!!
*Students gather in the arena cheering and yelling*
Akumo: front row seats!
Isaac: why did the rest of the student body come too?
Gin: isn’t obvious? Because who wouldn’t want to see two babes fight? Like come on!
Sheila: I hope they don’t hurt themselves too much
Brock: yeah show us some blood! Rip each other apart!!!
*Sheila is dumbfounded and elsewhere hayami is in the locker room fitting her practice outfit*
Hayami: *sighs* I got this
*kiruma knocks on the lockers*
Kiruma: are you nervous?
Hayami: Ms. Kiruma?!
Kiruma: it’s okay if you are
Hayami: well she fought toe to toe with akumo so maybe I am a bit nervous but I won’t let it stop me!
Kiruma: your chances in beating her are pretty low and will likely lose this fight
Hayami: oh….
Kiruma: but I didn’t come here to discourage you I came here to tell you to set her to the right path even if you can’t win
Hayami: but what if that doesn’t work?
Kiruma: minori is a difficult child but there’s a reason for that, she had a terrible childhood and had to grow up to fighting battles that weren’t her own so she’s never had a normal life until now
Hayami: what if I can’t do it?
Kiruma: its not the matter of if but how and when, it’s up to you to decide!
*Kiruma walks away but looks over her shoulder*
Kiruma: do me a favor and make her an excellent student for me okay?
Hayami: yes ma’am!!
*meanwhile minori looks at herself in the mirror, she hears echoes of voices telling her she’s a pawn and only meant for war, she suddenly punches the mirror breaking it. Layer minori and hayami stand across each other getting ready to fight*
Gin: yeah!!!
Isaac: that’s enough gin! Don’t look at them that way it’s disgraceful!!
Akumo: I wonder how this would turn out with her magic power she’ll probably beat Hayami
Isaac: have faith in the president!!
Akumo: that minori girl was strong and I had a hard time keeping up with her when we were fighting
Isaac: but still the president is also strong! In her own way
Minori: let’s get this over with already
Hayami: yeah I’ll take responsibility on setting you straight!!
Kiruma: welcome to the combat battle arena today we have hayami utsumi the student council president and minori Adler the new student, the winner will be decided to whoever submits or is knocked out first, any assistance from outside the battle is a immediate disqualification and use any means necessary to win in the arena I will count down and when I say go you will begin to fight 5! 4!
Minori: you’ll regret fighting me!
Hayami: I doubt it!!
Kiruma: 3, 2, 1! Fight!!
