Part Title. Principal's Office

Warnings. None, really.
Disclaimer.
  Not mine, not mine.  Keep that in mind, that they're not mine.
Notes. Been a while, hasn't it?  Well, I stopped being lazy.  Go me.  Short part, but it's furthering the story.  Which is good, because I really want the side things to get over with as soon as possible, so I can get on to the better part of the fic.  Bruu.  So, yeah, read and review.

            "Sit down, Genrou," the old woman commanded as the young man walked into her office.
            Tasuki sat down on one of the two leather chairs in front of Taiitsukun's desk.  "Um, how--?"
            "That's what your mother called you when I talked to her."
            "Oh."
            "So, seems you've already caused some trouble.  Your mother warned me you would."
            Tasuki grinned innocently.  "Now, I would have no idea why she would say such a thing..."
            "Don't get smart, Genrou-kun," the principal scolded.  "It's not like your presence here is an advancement for the school."
            "Then, if I may," Tasuki started, putting his elbow on his knee while he propped his head on his hand, "why am I here if I bring nothing to this school?"
            Taiitsukun snorted before turning her gaze off to the side.  "Two days worth of detention," she said in a low voice, still not facing him.  "Report to Shouka-san after your classes are over on Monday in the library.  Understood?"
            "Yes, ma'am," the youth said politely enough, though he was a little irked that his previous question hadn't been answered.
            "Good."  She sat back in her chair, finally looking to him.  "And, in the future, try not to cause such a racket."  She grinned.  "After all, you don't want to get caught, now do you?"
            "Umm... no, ma'am."
            "I thought as much," she replied in an even tone.  "You may go now."  Tasuki nodded and stood up and was about to leave when Taiitsukun called to him again: "And, Genrou..."
            He regarded her.  "Yeah?"
            "You will find this place to be much better than Windhollow.  But, if anyone does treat you the same... I want you to tell me, is that clear?"  Tasuki gave a hesitant nod.  "Then, go on.  Go mingle with your friends."
            Tasuki turned and made his war to the door before he remembered Nuriko's message.  He faced her again, saying, "Taiitsukun-san, Nuriko wanted me to tell you that she has... um... what's his name? -- oh, yeah, Samael.  She has Samael's teddy bear, and she's going to return it to 'im."
            "Thank you, Tasuki.  That is very good news."
            Again, Tasuki nodded, before turning and finally leaving the office.

            I know this part was short.  The next part will be longer, and will be soon, hopefully.  Hopefully.  School's almost out, so I'll be able to focus a lot more time on stories, thankfully.
