Author's note: To AISH a.k.a. Kitty in the Box, thanks for the conditioner and the great idea – chibi Katan.
Disclaimer: I don't own anything……..and I know my fics are getting somewhat boring. This one is better, though (I hope).
~ Chibi Goes To School ~
As the days go by, chibi Rosiel-sama's immune system loses a little by little to the poison. Thus, he was becoming more and more like a chibi, physically and mentally. Katan had noticed the chibi's deteriorating IQ, and was slightly worried. But because he wants his Rosiel-sama to remain as a chibi, he did not approach Raphael for a cure. (He was also worried about what Raphael would ask for the cure. :P)
"Katan, I'm bored." chibi Rosiel-sama whined, pulling at Katan's sleeve gently.
Katan was writing busily, with piles of documents in front of him. He had to take over Rosiel-sama's responsibilities ever since the chibi started acting like a chibi. "Why don't you just……………" Katan looked around the room and realized that there was nothing for a five year-old kid to play with. Rubbing his eyes tiredly, he said, "I'm sorry, Rosiel-sama. Why don't you just find something to do until I'm free? I'll play with you then."
The chibi's face was downcast. Then, he had an idea. "I know! I'll go and find Raphael. He'll give me a strawberry shortcake." And before Katan could say word, the chibi was off.
Katan's blood went cold at the mere mention of Raphael's name. Rosiel-sama is hanging around him so often these days……He shouldn't do that……Raphael might be dangerous……But the last thought was a lie and he knew it. Katan was just plain jealous. Yes, I'm jealous, so what? Katan slammed a fist down on the innocent table. I don't care. I'll do something to stop this……

"And remember, no one can get near Rosiel-sama except the children, the teachers and me!" Katan stated the point firmly to the principal. "Especially not this guy." He held up a photograph of Raphael.
The principal and the teachers could only stutter out a 'Yes'.
"One last thing. No one can fetch Rosiel-sama back except me."
The staff nodded.
Katan smiled. Mission accomplished. Chibi Rosiel-sama starts school tomorrow.

After Katan had left, one of the teachers picked up the documents to finalize the enrollment. Glancing down at the registration form, she realized that Katan had accidentally left out the gender question. The teacher looked at the photograph of the new student, took up a pen and made a tick in the box next to the word 'female'.
@ The next day @
"From this day onwards, you must go to school everyday, Rosiel-sama," Katan said, entering the school's compound with the chibi in tow.
"Is school nice?" chibi Rosiel-sama asked uncertainly.
Katan nodded, smiling. He had gone through a thousand human schools and had decided that this was the best one. There will be no boring, ordinary, exam-oriented classes. Instead, lessons will focus on developing a child's mind with fun-filled activities (Katan hoped that this would help in halting the chibi's IQ declination). There was also no school uniform, so chibi Rosiel-sama could wear his beautiful clothes. Furthermore, this school was a one-of-its-kind, exclusive private school. There won't be any rough kids to bully Rosiel-sama……
Katan led chibi Rosiel-sama to the assigned classroom and gave the teacher a lecture on how to treat the chibi. The chibi looked at his new classmates with fascination. The children were equally fascinated with their new friend. Long, shiny hair and big, bright eyes……the whole class (including the teacher) was in love with the kawaii chibi.
After a while, Katan and the teacher went out of the classroom to finalize some procedures. The kids took the chance to get to know the chibi.
"Yo, kid. What's your name?" a boy with a rather tough appearance asked.
"Rosiel," the chibi answered. I don't like him. He's so rude……
"Ro…sie? All right. I'll call you Rosie-chan." The rest of the children started clamouring about how cute the name was. Chibi Rosiel-sama, however, did not agree with them. Unfortunately, the boy did not notice this. He just smiled and held out his hand. "My name's Seta."
Chibi Rosiel-sama swatted Seta's hand and glared at the rest of the class. "My name is Rosiel," he said emphasizing his name. "And you should address me with a 'sama'."
The kids, who had fell silent under the chibi's glare, started chattering again. The chibi could clearly hear stuff like 'she's so cute!', 'kawaii!!' and 'she's like a little dolly' from all around him. Even Seta was looking at him with interest, not the least bit angry. Surrounded by twenty squealing kids, even the chibi had to concede defeat. Why did Katan sent me here……I don't like it……
Just then, the teacher came in. The kids scrambled for their seats. And because everyone wanted to sit near the chibi, chibi Rosiel-sama ended up with the seat in the middle. Soon enough, classes began normally.
@ First lesson: Science @
"Okay class. Today, we will learn about the insect world," said the science sensei. She had a cheerful face but a horrible dress sense.
A few customary nods and high-pitched 'ewws' greeted her.
Ignoring the cold response, the sensei went on. "And to properly understand these lil' creatures, we will go to the school's garden to look at the insects there. Now, everyone, line up quickly."
The children obediently lined up and went to the garden. Chibi Rosiel-sama didn't really know what was going on, but he followed anyway.
Once they reached the garden, the sensei started lecturing about butterflies, beetles, etc. Hanging at the back of the group, the chibi was not the least bit interested. Instead, he had found something interesting on the ground and bent down to pick it up.
"What are you doing, Rosie-chan?" Seta asked.
A vein popped on the chibi's forehead. Then, looking at his catch, he had a perfect plan.
"Look."
Seta looked. So did a few others. Chibi Rosiel-sama was holding a realistic toy frog someone had dropped, one of its legs firmly clamped between his thumb and index finger.
"This is a frog. Katan once cooked frogs' legs for me. It was very delicious," the chibi said, shaking the toy for emphasis. Since the chibi was shaking it rigorously, the kids couldn't see that it was a toy one.
"Really?" Seta asked, intrigued. He had never eaten frogs' legs before.
Instead of answering his question, chibi Rosiel-sama broke of one of the toy frog's legs, forced open Seta's mouth and stuff the amputated limb inside. Throwing away the rest of the frog, he clamped Seta's mouth shut with his hands and said, "Chew."
Since the toy was rubbery, slimy and muddy, Seta thought it was a real one. Trying desperately to not chew it and failing miserably, his face's colour turned into an interesting mix of blue, purple, red and green. The chibi kept his hand in place until he finally thought that Seta had suffered enough. Then he removed his hand. Eyes sparkling, he asked, "Nice, right? The ones Katan cooked for me were nicer, but he won't cook for you."
The toy frog's leg came rushing out through Seta's mouth along with his breakfast. Only then, did the sensei realize what had happened. Horrified, she turned to scold chibi Rosiel-sama.
"Just what do you think you're doing, young lady?"
The chibi widen his eyes and said innocently, "He said he wanted to know how frogs' legs taste like. So, I helped him."
The sensei, seeing chibi Rosiel-sama's cuteness, almost softened a little. She may be cute but she has to be punished! "Well, you're still wrong, and you must be punished!"
The chibi widen his eyes more and even blinked them a few times. "Did I do wrongly? Am I a bad girl?" His lips trembled slightly. He didn't mind calling himself a girl; he knew that people were softhearted towards little girls. "I only wanted to help him." The chibi looked down sadly. "Am I a naughty girl?" His eyes were filled with tears.
Hit full-forced by the chibi's charm, the sensei's heart melted. _She's just a little kid…….she doesn't know what's right and what's wrong…… "All right, all right. Just don't do that again." Then, she left orders for the children to stay where they are while she took Seta to the nurse's room.
Chibi Rosiel-sama was instantly popular. Seta was always bullying newcomers and girls. The chibi was the first one who could turn the tables on him. Plus, he got away with it. So, he was their heroine.
One of the girls, Hime, a rich-kid snob, was not pleased, thinking that the chibi was trying to usurp her place as the most popular girl. Pushing her way to the chibi, she said in an arrogant voice, "Those are only frogs' legs. I've eaten French snails before."
Silence prevailed as the children stared at her. "French……snails?" the chibi asked. Eww……
"You don't even know what they are. Only the high-classed and exclusive people, like me, can eat it. You're obviously just trying to show off. I bet you have never even saw it before," the girl said tauntingly.
While Hime was busy bragging, chibi Rosiel-sama was hunting around. When the girl finally stopped, he had already found what he wanted. Using his innocent voice, he said, "But snails are very big. Can they fit in your mouth?"
"Off course they can. See? Ahh…" Hime opened her mouth wide.
Faster than lightning, the chibi jammed a real snail into the girl's mouth, shell and all. "Try a Japanese one," he said, closing Hime's mouth with his hand. The girl's face turned a colour more interesting than Seta's had. The whole class laughed.

That's all for now. Off course, the school day does not end here. I'm just too tired to write anymore ^___^. Review if you like it, and I'll write faster.
