Chapter 1
A new staff, an old face...
In Azumanga High, a woman with brown hair wearing a purple shirt, and short-skirt slammed the sliding door opened. She gave the students in the room a glare, before hurriedly walking forward. When she was behind the pedestal her hand moved at dizzying speeds as she hurriedly wrote on the board. When she was done the words 'Second Semesters' were emblazoned' on the board.
"Now starts the Second Semester, which means that the Sports Festival is drawing near!" This had the class confused. What was so important about the Sports Festival? Though not all the students were confused, some knew why she had made this significant. It had something to do with the class that was right behind the blackboard, or in particular the teacher behind the class, named Nyamo Kurosawa. "However that doesn't mean you get to slack off either! What it means is th-" there was a knock on the door. "WHO IS IT!?" she yelled.
"Geeze... you still are as loud as an a monkey aren't you Tanazaki?" said a calm yet deep voice from behind the door. A drop of sweat formed on the back of the students heads at this remark. A girl with neck-length hair, said "Geeze... whoever it is must have a death wish." the students gulped as Yukari gave a roar.
"WHAT!? WHO ARE YOU TO CALL ME A MON-!?" Then she blinked. "Wait a minute, how do you know my name?" A brief chuckle was heard then the door opened. Yukari's eye's widened, her jaw dropped, and she raised a audibly shaking finger at the person at the door. "Y-Y-Y!" The person walked in ducking slightly to show a man that must've been at least 193 cms tall, with brown bangs and hair. His brown eye's seemed to sparkle, in the light. He was wearing a loose white doctor's robe, underneath that was a black button shirt, and black pants. He smiled, and held up a hand.
"Yo!" his reply was to have a piece of chalk thrown at immense speeds hit him squarely on the forehead. His head tilted back from the blow. Yukari, who was panting, looked at him her eye's were still wide and slightly whited out.
"What are you doing here?" She asked panting slightly. The man rubbed his forehead, a slight tear on his right eye.
"I work here now..." he said, looking at her slightly abashed.
"I CAN SEE THAT! What I mean is why are you here?" She said regaining her posture slightly. He blinked then lowered his hand to reveal the red circle on his forehead.
"I'm the schools social worker." Many students gave an 'Ahhhh' sound.
"Excuse me!" Heads turned. "What's a social worker?" the social worker turned to look at the speaker.
"And you are?"
"Tomo! Tomo Takino!" The social worker smiled.
"Minato Mikado... and to answer your question a social worker is a person who allows people to be their absolute true selves and is sworn to never reveal those facts about those people unless they feel it is dangerous or if the person wishes for other people to know." he raised a hand and stroked his chin while turning his head up. "To put it in laymans terms I'm kinda like a living diary! You understand." Tomo nodded, her face was unusually serious. Minato smiled, then he turned to Yukari who was now watching him, wearily. "As I understand it Tanazaki you had 1 rather interesting student correct? A miss Chiyo Mihama?" Yukari nodded and taking a step back slightly she gestured to a seat near the front. In it was a small girl of 10 years with orange hair set in two pigtails. She looked at him, "Ahhh... I see! Well my mission is complete and I'll be off! Oh and if anybody wants to have a talk with me my office is downstairs near the gymnasium. You can come anytime you like but make sure you're excused my office is not a ticket out of doing work." He said his eye's narrowing slightly at the last bit. The students sweated once again as he closed the door. Yukari stared at the door.
"Miss Yukari?" She turned to Chiyo. "Who was that?" Yukari blinked, then she waved her hand dismissively and went back to her podium.
"Ah, nobody important! Just a guy I knew in my school days..." She said grumpily. And with that the class began.
When class was over Tomo walked over to a girl with long light-brown hair with glasses. "Hey Yomi!" Yomi looked up.
"What?" She said slightly annoyed.
"What do you think?" Tomo asked, Yomi looked up at Tomo her glasses glossing over.
"What do I think of what exactly?" Tomo stared at her, her mouth open.
"About Minato and Yukari stupid!" Yomi was grabbing Tomo by her cheeks and was forcibly trying to pull them apart.
"The only stupid one here is you!" Yomi growled it was then that a girl with shoulder length hair walked over.
"Hey Yomi, hey Tomo. Whatcha' doin'?" The girl was known by the class as Osaka though her real name was Ayumuu Kasuga, the reason for this was due to Tomo nicknaming her that due to the fact that Osaka came from Osaka.
"Me? I'm trying to kill Tomo! What else?" Yomi snarled as she continued to try and rip Tomo's cheeks off. It was then that Tomo took a step back causing her, Yomi, and Osaka to fall. They fell with a clatter to the floor.
"Oh my goodness are you all right?" came the small, high pitched voice of Chiyo. Tomo, was currently seeing spirals while, Yomi was lying flat on her face, and Osaka was lying on Yomi's back.
"Ow..." Tomo said as she stood up, rubbing her cheeks. Yomi, gave a groan.
"Moron." She said, she threw off Osaka and stood up holding her head.
"Anyway back to my previous question, what do you think about Minato and Yukari?" Tomo said, lowering her hands and looking at them as if nothing had happen.
"Huh?" Chiyo looked surprised by this sudden question then she put a finger on her chin looking thoughtful "Well uh... it seems that Miss Yukari and Mr. Minato are old friends... that's about it I guess." She said. Tomo looked at Chiyo, blankly then said.
"MORON!"
"Huh?" Chiyo said, now confused. However one member of this gang was missing. That would be the tall girl with long dark hair sitting near the window. She was looking at her friends, a slight smile on her face though she wasn't really paying attention to them. She too was thinking of the teacher, but not about the mysterious connection between him and her homeroom teacher. No, she was thinking about what he had said, when the bell rang and the next class was starting she walked up to the teacher and asked.
"Can I have a pass to the social worker?"
Minato was sitting in his office currently looking through all of the students profiles when he heard a knock on the door. "Come in!" He said looking up, the door opened and a girl of tall height, and large bust came in. "Ah! You must be... Miss Sakaki correct?" he said standing up and holding out a hand. She looked at him taken aback slightly, but grabbed his hand and shook she could feel his powerful muscles squeezing her hand gently. He then gestured to a couch that was in the room. Sakaki sat down. "So! How can I help you?" He said spreading his hands apart then clapping them together. Sakaki blushed slightly at the exuberance he seemed to radiate but she didn't leave.
"Um... I can talk... about anything in here right? And nobody will know?" She asked. Minato nodded.
"That is correct, and nobody will know unless I think that what you tell me is life threatening or if you want somebody else like your parents or your friends to know. So you can say whatever you want." He said opening his hands slightly. Sakaki nodded and sighed, then her face flushed pink she said.
"I... I like cute things..." Minato blinked, then he scratched his head.
"Really? Hmmmm... you don't look the type and..." he turned and rummaged through his folders till he found her's and looking through it. "Judging by your scores particularly in P.E. you don't seem the type." Sakaki blinked.
"Don't Look the type?" He nodded, and he closed his eye's slowly.
"Sakaki have you ever really looked at yourself in the mirror? I'm not trying to insult you or anything but have you looked in the mirror and thought about how you look?" He asked. Sakaki blinked.
"Um..." She grabbed her chin and took on a thoughtful pose. "Not really I guess. I'm not usually concerned with my image." Minato gave a nod and opened his eye's halfway.
"I see, well I've never seen you in P.E but you must be extremely athletic despite the fact that you probably never really seriously took an interest in sports, correct?" Sakaki nodded. Minato leaned back in his chair, and raised a leg propping it on his other leg. "When I look at you, I see this big, imposing girl, who is an unknown entity to the public, with the strength to take out even the strongest boys. Girls like you are extremely rare in japan, and usually follow their public view." He said. Sakaki gave an 'Oh!' then she looked worried. "However if someone were to talk to you like how I am I think they will understand. While you might not meet that person now you might meet them later on in life. When that chance comes I suggest opening up to them as much as you think you should. After that everything should be fine I think." Sakaki looked at him her mouth in an 'Oh!'
"I see... but I don't know how this has to do with me liking cute stuff." she said bluntly. Minato froze.
"Uhhh... You're right I'm sorry." He said shaking his head and lowering his leg. "Though now that you mention what kind of stuff do you like?" Sakaki blushed.
"Cats... puppies... Chiyo-chan..." She said, they continued with Minato mostly talking while Sakaki listened, though she wasn't completely silent. She would also talk, telling him about her love of cats, and her encounter with one particular cat.
"A cat that bite's when you try to pet it?" He asked looking surprised she nodded. "Huh... Well I got no solution to that." He said, his eye's drifted to the clock on the wall and he gave a grunt of surprise.
"Uh oh! Miss Sakaki you should get back to class." He said gesturing to the clock. Sakaki looked at the clock as well and gave an eep of surprise. She stood up apologizing and left the room, Minato watched as she left then he sighed. "Sakaki huh? Remind me of that one girl back in college. Oh well... I think I'll go visit two more old friends." With that he stood up stretched, scratched his head then opened the door and headed for upstairs.
I've wanted to do an Azumanga Daioh fic for years... I finally am carrying through with it. Also this Minato has absolutely no reference on any other Minato that might or does exist. He's an OC...
