So finally the principal finished whatever pressing business kept him occupied for at least half an hour. Unbeknown to Daphine, Principal Kelly was playing with his collection of Barbie dolls and had just finished having a Barbie and Ken wedding but that's another story.
"I'll see her now Miss Jones" Came his annoying nasal voice through the intercom. "Send her through"
"Right away Principal Kelly" The blond gushed and pressed the end transmission button with one pink nailed hand. "You can go in now" She said and Daphine rolled her eyes. This bimbo had a great talent, one not to be wasted. She had an amazing capacity to state the obvious.
"Pardon Mademoiselle, c'est imbecile non" Daphine laughed as she opened the pine door at the secutary's confusion. Closing the door on the blond's musings. "What's an mademoiselle" She said in a lost voice. "Silly French girl" She finished and Daphine raised a brow. Not that she expected someone who couldn't understand a simple insult to know the subtle differences between a Cajun and a Frenchperson but it still was annoying.
"Ah yes, A miss Le Beau" Came the infamous principals nasal tones.
"C'est incorrect. Mademoiselle Le Belle" Daphine recitted. Whilst her real name was indeed the same as Gambit's her and her theiving cousin agreed to this small deception as well as Daphine's apparent lack of the English language.
"Oh, must be a" Principal Kelly paused to ajust his glasses. "Typing error. Anyway, welcome to Bayville. I understand you are staying with a guardian with one of our students. A Mr Allderdyce. It is also come to my attention that you are in regular contact with the father of a Young Mr Maximoff"
"Oui" Daphine said simply. It was obvious to even her that Principal Kelly was silently assesing a couple of prime factors about this mysterious new student.
1) Whether she was a trouble maker like those that he'd just mentioned.
2) Whether she guessed he was really addicted to Barbie's
3) Whether she was a mutant.
4) If not Why the hell did she dye her hair silver and put contacts in.
Apart from Number 2, these questions he'd have to find out in time. And watch and wait. As this Principal was so good a doing, watching and looking out the window.
"Now, you will be shown around by one of our pleasant students. A Miss Taryn Wayte. Pleasant young woman that she is, she's volunteered to stay with you for the first two periods but unfortunately that's when your timetables end." Principal Kelly handed Daphine a sealed brown envelope with her timetable and classes inside.
As she stood to walk away, the principal looked up from his sketchings of the new Barbie that he planned to buy and uttered a single sentence. "A word of warning miss Le Belle. Don't mess with the mutants" And returned to his drawings.
"Oh Don' worry Monsieur. Ah intend t'watch dem carefully" She smiled grimly and left his office.
