hi everyone!
Kya Tokina- am I correct in thinking it is Ron Weasley?
Possesed Angel- i'm trying!
SummerWings- that is cuter, i agree
Sword Master Jeff and Spiritual Tao- don't worry, Sissy gets her 'just desserts.'
can anyone take a guess at what two anime's episode titles i am basing my chapter titles on?

Chapter Six: Dark School's Heartbeat
Yumi glared at Ulrich around Dorothy, who was wrapping the irate teen's leg in an ace bandag and
scolding her gently. She had taken Yumi's story of 'I tripped down the stairs' with a raised eyebrow,
but had chosen not to comment or press the matter further.
Ulrich was smiling serenly at Yumi, as though he couldn't possibly fathom what was so irritating
her, and seemed to be ignoring her red-hot gaze.
"There you go." Dorothy stepped back, admiring her work. "You should really try to be more careful,
Yumi. You haven't even been here a full week yet. I'm going to go get you some crutches, you shouldn't
walk on that for a couple of days." She swept out of the room.
"Happy now," Yumi snapped.
"Yes," Ulrich responded, his grin growing wider at the exaperated look this earned from Yumi. "Aw,
c'mon Yumi." He rose and placed his hand on top of hers. "I just don't want you to hurt yourself."
Her eyes softened. "Yeah, I know."
Dorothy bustled in hefting two wodden crutches before her. "Here you go, Yumi. Come back and see
me in a couple of days." Yumi nodded in understanding and found herself ushered out the door along
with Ulrich. "Get going you two! And Yumi, do be more careful, dear." She shut the door behind them,
leaving them alone in the desolate hallway.
"Now we can go to the principle," reasoned Ulrich.
-----
The principle looked up at the sound of a knock at his door. "Come in!" He watched as Ulrich
shoved his head though the narrow space between the door and the frame.
"May we talk to you for a moment, sir?"
"We? Who is with you, Ulirch?"
Ulrich entered completely, opening the door wide to allow for Yumi's entrance with the crutches.
"Hello, sir," she said as she hobbled in.
"Yumi! You haven't even been here a week yet, what happened?" He rose, but Yumi gestured that
he sit back down.
"I'm okay, I just fell is all. We really have to talk to you." She and Ulrich sat down in the
chairs across from the principle's desk. "Sir, has anything...bad ever happened here?"
The man's face grew flustered for a moment, but the shocked expression passed as quickly as it had
appeared, replaced with a look of innocent bewilderment. "Of-of course not!"
"Are you sure," Ulrich pressed. "Nothing involving two students named Aelita and Jeremy?"
This time the principle paled visibly, eyes growing wide. Hanging his head her refused to look them
in the eyes as he said, "Yes, yes there has. Twenty years ago." Yumi and Ulrich glanced at each other.
"Could you tell us about it?" Yumi leaned forward.
"There's not much to it. The best we could figure was that she killed him, then ran off of school
ground and threw herself off the bridge by that old abandoned factory." In unison, Yumi and Ulrich
gasped loudly.
Yumi composed herself first. "T-thank you sir..." She rose and ulrich followed suit, allowing her
to lead the way out of the room.
