"You've taken pretty drastic measure this time, Minato" The man with dark brown hair, and gray eyes mused. He wore a blue, red and white plaid collar shirt, and underneath is a dark green shirt, matched with dark gray pants.

"This is nothing to laugh at Keisuke" He sighed with slight irritation in his voice. His right eye, tinted with a bluish gray, was covered like a curtain with his blue dark hair, while the left eye looked at him.

"Come on don't be so angry." Keisuke said soothingly, pushing his black rimmed glasses up smiling at his blue haired companion. "As you know I recently just got married so... Sorry that I can't co-"

"I know that. Congratulations again with Chihiro." Minato cut in and sighed, letting the irratation in him flow out and smiled a little. He was genuinely happy for his long time friend.

"Let me finish." The doctor in glasses chuckled. "In exchange for that though, I'll try to get in contact with some influencial corporations or universities for you. Of course I'll ask Chihiro for her connections as well."

"Flight 20-II to Japan, Tokyo is now boarding."

"Alright thanks." Minato nodded lifting his black duffel bag onto his left shoulder. "I'll try to come back as soon as possible as well."

Keisuke walked closer to him putting a hand on his shoulder with a reassuring smile. "Take your time, it's been awhile since you were home right?"

Minato kept a small smile, nodding then turned around heading to the boarding area. After he handed over his ticket to a slightly taller man with white hair and yellow eyes which unnerved him a little. Minato noticed he wore a black-collared and long-sleeved shirt under a blue suit complemented with a blue necktie. He also wore black pants with blue lines running through the sides, black shoes, and a hat similar fitting for a flight attendant. Theodore. Minato thought reading the name tag the taller man wore.

"Welcome to flight 20-II to Japan" The attendant smiled and bowed ushering Minato into the plane.

The blue haired man easily found his seat with ease. He was seated beside an older bald gentleman who oddly wore a black, tattered, Buddhist monk's robe. He took a closer look and noticed golden rings as well as a golden watch. Strange. I thought monks weren't into materialistic things. Minato shifted a little smelling alcohol from the monk. Is this guy really a monk? He thought rhetorically.

The engines roared. The plane started to move down the run way. His hands started to shake a little with the turbulence of taking off as the plane got faster and faster down the runway. So then finally they were in the air and that's when the turbulence calmed. They were above the clouds, the serene beauty of the skies calmed him prompting him away from his problems.

It wasn't like he was coming home for a vacation. The thesis he presented while in school was acknowledged and drawn up. Everything was fine, until they started up a larger scale project. Two major corporations were hit by the recession and ended in bankruptcy, and the state of funding alone wasn't going to cover it. Such a sorry state of affairs. He sighed. Research required people. Equipment; all of it costs money. And in order to get funds for those kind of things, one had to petition to the government or corporations. But with research that major American corporations have abandoned it's rather unlikely that there will be another corporation willing to offer up the funds as a sponsor.

It had been a few weeks since Minato returned to Tatsumi Port. While he was in Tokyo he had checked out the corporations and universities that he had connected with. In the end none of the universities or corporations were convinced enough.

Minato already ran out of money for everyday needs. At that point, call it luck maybe, he ran into an old teacher friend of his who begged him to help out.

Ah... Depressing. Minato inwardly sighed pushing his black rimmed glasses up, walking forward. Maybe I should use my contacts next time... Anyhow, accomplishing anything in this world costs money.. I have no choice. He stood in front of the gates. "Gekkoukan High School" He breathed. Why does it have to be an all girls Academy. He shook his head and continued on.

"Hey, Yukari"

"What?" A questioning brunette with donning a pink cardigan sweater and a thigh-high skirt. She had a softly featured face, beautiful milky brown eyes that seemed to complement the sharp fringes of her hair and fair skin.

"You think maybe he's the new teacher?" The girl with short black hair tied into a short ponytail asked looking out the window.

"Where!? Which one!?" the brunette shouted almost in a panic by the news.

Yuko with an amused smile, she pointed out the window to a figure walking into the school. "See him? That young guy over there."

"Ugh, you weren't kidding... What's with those lame glasses!" Yukari tensed up. Anxiety started to grow inside her. Why is it another guy? Couldn't they find a female replacement.. Geez. She sighed.

"Oh? I think he's kinda handsome" Yuko commented. Turning to her friend she noticed the distress on her face and decided it wasn't the time for jokes, even if she did really think he was genuinely good looking. "But really... Giving us another male teacher after that incident... Thats rather insensitive."

"Heh, whatever. If he tries anything strange, I'll take care of it again..." The brunette's expression darkened. I'll drive him out, I won't let anything like last time happen again.

The blue-haired young man looked around to find himself in a small alley way. "Where am I?" He asked no one specifically. "I guess that's what I get for spacing out." He mumbled with a sigh. He started walking forward into the brush not caring for his formal light blue clothes, hands in his blazer pockets. It's strange I know I've lived here until I was 6... But it seems like I've gotten caught in some other world. This place is absolutely nothing like I'm used to. He looked up the sky. My petition I hope it goes through soon... If it does go through, I can leave this job on the spot... I miss my research.

Snapping out of his thoughts he heard humming, as clichéd as he thought it was he followed the sound. Was this opening always here? He peeked through the fence opening, where he saw a lone girl sitting on the steps with auburn hair, which she had in a high ponytail, along with silver barrettes which form the roman numeral XXII. She wore a white collared shirt, a red ribbon tie, with a red MP3 player around her neck with matching red earphones snugly hugging her ears, and the black school skirt. The sun shining on her skin made it visible that she had a pale complexion, but one thing Minato noted from all her features was her striking red eyes. He did also take into account that she had written an equation into the dirt with a stick she was holding. Laplace?. He contemplated looking at the equation walking closer. I see.. It's Fourier.. Although it seems she made a mistake. Minato squatted down and started to correct the wrong.

"Close." He said, earning a shocked looked from the student, but he pressed on "You messed up this last part. You have to do this instead..." He elaborated using the stick she previously used to show her. "But the way you worked it out was really good." He was smiling, amused by how she solved the equation. The student stood up but said nothing. Minato tilted his head "You... Have an interest in mathematical physics then?" He asked.

The auburn haired girl brushed her clothes off and replied "No, not at all." Just... Who is this guy?

Hmm? Even if you consider Fourier to be that not impressive, it still doesn't seem like to be something within the grasp of a high school stu-.

"Hey..." The girl unknowingly ended Minato's thinking. "I haven't seen you around here before, are you the new teacher?"

"Yes, why?" The young teacher raised an eyebrow.

She picked up her bag and started walking off back to the broken fence. "Well let me give you a little warning then." She paused and turned around to face the new teacher. "Our previous teacher messed around with the students, and ended up losing his job, so it might be in your best interest to try to avoid being together with another student... Everyone is a little on edge... You're likely to be mistaken for something else." She finished with an unreadable expression. With a slight bow she left him.

Minato was definitely unnerved by the story. Ah! I didn't hear about that! His eyes were wide and mouth slightly agape.

Minato sat in a chair aligned with his fellow teachers on the stage as the ceremony to welcome him started.

"So that's what happend." An older gentleman with longer black hair, a stuble on the chin, stared forward to the crowd of students.

"It was! Don't play dumb with me Shinosuke." Minato whispered with obvious irritation in his voice. "If I had known that the previous teacher had done those things, I wouldn't have taken you on the offer!"

"Aw don't be so upset. Didn't I help you out back when you were in elementary?" The older man mused in a hushed tone.

Today begins a new quarter...

"Well yeah. But still" Minato insisted. "You're missing the point here, don't get me mixed up in this!" Minato kept his voice low but loud enough for his colleague to hear him.

" You've really lost your child-like innocence." The older gentleman sighed shaking his head.

Allow me to introduce you to our new teacher.

"C'mon now sit up straight." Shinosuke said smoothly.

He will become the new replacement teacher for the fourth group freshman. Professor Arisato entered an American University at the age of 13.

What's with that... I guess he's pretty smart. Is that why they hired him? Yukari scoffed quietly.

He was then accepted in the same University's graduate program. He is an extremely talented physics professor. And with that, if we all could please have a few words from Mr. Arisato himself.

Minato stood up from his chair and walked over to the podium. He looked to the crowd and turned on the microphone. "It is said that, Teaching is the profession that makes all other professions possible. Teachers are the one who bring about change in student's life with fun, excitement and develop thrill of learning in them. That being said, I hope we can all get along." Minato bowed slightly and cheering and swooning erupted from the crowd of girls.

A/N:

Firstly I'd like to apologize for any mistakes I've made, or if this fic is a little confusing... This is my first time writing a story like this. Hopefully as time progresses I can find a proper writing style.
