Chapter 2: School.
Kain sighed. Right now, he was sitting next to Kokiri in the waiting room after her first day of school, and he was already called in for a Parent Teacher meeting. Kokiri, according to other students, had gotten into a fight with a young girl belonging to a rich family. Kokiri however, had her outfit, a pink dress with lace, torn up, and her body was bruised.
"Kokiri, tell me what happened." He said, while the little girl looked away and pouted. Sighing, the Dragoon leader got up as the school principal, a young man with blond hair and a scar on his handsome face and wearing a plain white robe came out to meet them.
"Principal… Hyde was it? Mind telling me what happened to Kokiri?" Kain asked, frowning as the young man laughed nervously.
"Well, you see, she got into a fight after one of the girls, Lily Slimay, insulted your actions during the events of eight years ago, calling you a traitor who can't be trusted. Kokiri then attacked her, and was beaten by Lily's umbrella, hence the bruises."
"Slimay… that jerk is always trying to discredit me, the king, and anyone we know. It would make sense his daughter would try and attack Kokiri." The dragoon replied, sighing. "I'll make sure to speak with him about this at a later date. Though I have to ask this, how is Kokiri doing in school? I know it's only been a week, but I would like to know as a parent."
"Well, She's good in music, and sports…. However, she isn't doing well with etiquette, reading, writing, or other academics. Your daughter is very, well, she's not doing too well, not to mention some of the words she used are….a bit odd? She acts like an animal sometimes."
"She was raised by animals before I adopted her. It makes sense that she didn't know much."
Kokiri sat there in silence as the two adults continued, eventually coming to an agreement. The Principal would find a tutor for her among one of the older students, and in exchange, Kokiri would have to stay out of fights for the rest of the year. After wards, father and daughter walked home, silence between the two until Kokiri spoke up.
"She wanted to destroy my necklace." She said, not even looking at Kain. "Lily told me it was gau-dee and needed to be destroyed before it blinded someone. Then she said those things about you, and I attacked."
"I see. Kokiri, you did a good job defending yourself, I'm proud of you for that, but next time, don't get into a fight, it's what she wanted. If you don't give what the enemy wants, then you will win more battles than your opponent." Kain said, picking his daughter up.
And that's it for this chapter. Now for the funfacts!
When it came to school, Kokiri was originally going to have to deal with twins named Julia and Marie Slimeball. I decided to make it one in this. But the overall goal of the bullies remained the same, Take Kokiri's necklace, destroy it, and make her suffer.
Kokiri would have made friends with a teenaged version of Cid's daughter. This would lead to Kokiri having someone to talk to and trust when it came to the bullies.
Principal Hyde has a secret, I'm not saying what it is, but it is going to be a surprise when it comes to light!
Well, now that that's taken care of, I'd like to say that someone got the question right, Vincent is found in niflheim mansion, after fighting the boss, you keep talking him until you get the same message, and then he decides to join you. In short, you pester him until he joins.
Now for the next question:
In Final Fantasy, what line did Garland say before battling you?
