"Attention class !" Ms. Nakashomi chimed. Everyone quieted down. "We have a new principal coming to our lovely school this afternoon" she said. "A new principal ? Come to think of it, I never new our school even had one" Chanel said.

"Same here, I never saw him" Serenity replied. "I heard it's this guy named Tatewaki Kuno" Anna said. "You mean that Kendo jerk ?" Chanel asked. "The same one, I hope this doesn't lead to anything bad..." Anna said. "Great, you jinxed it now !" Serenity shouted.

(That afternoon)

All the students had to attend an assembly in honor of the new principal of Sorriaski middle school. Strangely he wore a traditional Kendo kimono and held a Kendo staff. "I am the new principal of this school. I, Tatewaki Kuno, will make sure all rules are abided by at all times. Anyone not following the rules will be dealt with immediately !" Kuno ranted. "Where do they get these principals anyway ? Its like we're in a disorganized anime" Serenity whispered. "Yeah, he talks too much about one topic" Anna said.

"WHO DARES TO TALK WHILE I AM TALKING ?" Kuno yelled. Anna and Chanel hid behind Serenity, which seemed pointed less she since was shorter than them. Serenity raised her hand.

"Foolish half-demon, you shall regret the day you spoke out of turn to me" he said coldly. "I was just saying that you talk too much..." she muttered. "I SHALL SEE YOU IN MY OFFICE AFTER THIS ASSEMBLY !" he shouted. "You're in for it..." Chanel whispered. "I can take whatever he can do to me. He seems like a windbag" she said smugly.

(In Kuno's office)

"Have a seat" Kuno said. "No thanks" Serenity answered. "When I tell you to sit down, you sit !" he shouted. With a shrug of her shoulders, Serenity sat down in a chair in front of his desk. "Did you think your little outburst was funny ?" Kuno asked.

"Well..." Serenity began. "Did you think it was funny, yes or no !" he shouted. "YES ! Are you happy now ?" Serenity yelled, evenly. "Very well, you leave me no alternative, half-breed" Kuno stated simply before pressing a button on his desk.

One of the walls in the office slid open and there was a small training room in its place. "Has that always been there ?" Serenity asked skeptically. "Yes it has, girl" Kuno said, leading Serenity into the room. "My name is-" Serenity began, but was interrupted. "As your superior, I must give you my name first !" Kuno said.

"But I already-" she tried to say, but was hit over the head by Kuno's staff. "Silence ! My name is Tatewaki Kuno. Master of Kendo martial arts. I am also known as The Blue Thunder of Furinkan High ! The high school that had many beautiful girls there. I demand full respect from you and...blah blah blah blah..." was all Serenity begun to hear after Kuno's fifth sentence.

She began mouthing the word "blah" over again as Kuno spoke. "Young half-breed ! Stop your idiotic gestures. Did you even here what I was saying to you ?" he asked firmly. "Uh...yes ?" Serenity said. "What was that last thing I said ?" Kuno asked, holding his Kendo staff tighter. "Uhh...green eggs and ham ?" she guessed. "Damn it, you were listening..." he sighed.

Kuno and Serenity stood in the middle of the small dojo and faced each other. "Your punishment will to spar with me in a Kendo match !" he said. "Alright ! Bring it on, I'll kick your butt !" Serenity said, taking an attack stance. Kuno stood in front of her and raised his staff.

"Wait, don't I need a staff and some protective armor ?" Serenity asked. "This is the point of your punishment, you will defend yourself only. No weapon, no armor !" he said before striking at her several times. "HUH ?" she cried before being pummeled over and over again.

Kuno struck at her with lighting speed, Serenity hardly able to see where and when he would hit her. "At least defend yourself, silly girl !" he shouted. Serenity then blocked one strike, but then felt the bones in her hand shatter. "ARGH !" she howled before being hit over the head, which had little effect fortunately.

"Discipline !" Kuno shouted with each strike. After five minutes of the relentless attacking, Kuno stopped. Serenity was on the floor, trying to suppress from crying. "All is forgiven, arise" he said. "I can't...I think my legs are broken" Serenity cried. "Get up, come on now. Get up !" he shouted.

Serenity stood up, but fell over. "Okay...my bones just snapped, yep...my legs are broken. I'm in like, serious pain here" Serenity groaned. "I shall take you to the nurse then, little weak one" Kuno said. "I am not weak !" Serenity shouted. Kuno took Serenity into his arms and began carrying her to the nurse's office.

"Put me down ! I don't want to be carried ! This is degrading !" Serenity cried. "Oh shut-up" he said irritably. "I demand that you do not carry me !" she shouted. "Fine then" Kuno said. He then dragged her by her tail. "This isn't any better..." she cried before soon passing out from the pain.

Once she woke up, she was in her room. "What happened ?" she thought. "So you're awake ? you've been asleep for 2 days, ya' know" Inu-yasha said. "It's all Kuno's fault ! He disciplined me !" Serenity cried, sitting up painfully. "Sounds like he knows what he's doing then !" he laughed.

"It's not funny, he challenged me to a Kendo match and I couldn't wear armor or use a Kendo staff ! It was horrible !" Serenity shouted, beginning to sniffle. "Just be good at school, then you wont get pummeled" Inu-yasha said before leaving her room.

Serenity growled and looked down at her hand with was bandaged up. "I think its time to 'welcome' Mr. Kuno in my own special way. I want revenge !" she thought before laying down to rest again.
