Chapter 17: A Teacher from the school!
---------------
Hayner entered the sandlot, and someone was finally in it. But, Hayner himself couldn't believe who it was...
He was... an adult. He had blue hair that was in a strange style. His hair seemed to be gelled so it would stay down. He had this somewhat big and long bang that came from the center of the top of his head that went down in front of his face that went to the bottom of his neck. Then there was the hair on the back of his head that made it look like he had horns, but didn't, it was just his hair. The hair arched to the left on his left back side of his head, and arched to the right on the right back side of his head. The points of the arches pointed toward the other hair arch at, about, the back of the top of his head. More hair held up these "arches" on the left and right sides of his head. Along his forehead, you could see his veins, which were blue, in a similar style to his hair. He had green eyes, a pretty muscular build, and white skin. He had a black jacket on that was zipped open almost all the way. It was red on the stomach area of the jacket. It had two, gold, buttons on the left and right side of the jacket near his chest area. He had a black tie on that, on the tie, had multiple colors of half circles on it. On the left and right side of his chest were two, black, dragon-like tattoos. You couldn't see all of the tattoos since they were somewhat covered up by the jacket. His hands were interesting. His fingernails were pretty long, longer that normal, and could really be used for slashing people with them, like Cait did. He had a blue sash on that was tied in a bow that had some small, light blue decorations on it as well, on his waist. He had a blue cape-like thing on his legs that covered his legs so you couldn't see his legs. It was red on the inside of the cape-like object. He had this fence-like thing on the inside of the cape-like object, because the cape-like object was opened near the front of his legs. It covered he legs more, but you could still see some of his legs through the diamond-shaped fence holes. You could tell he had black sweat pants on with black boots.
Hayner didn't seem concerned, though, he even started relaxing again and rested his head on his hands again.
"Oh... hey Mr. Seymour. What are you doing here?" asked Hayner.
Apparently Seymour's back was turned to Hayner, because he turned around now and faced Hayner.
Seymour was the main "instructor" of the school that taught the kids what they needed to know in Twilight Town. Hayner kind of looked up to Seymour, because Seymour always helped Hayner when he got stuck on a problem or question that Seymour gave to them on homework, classwork, quizzes, tests, whatever. Hayner even kind of thought of Seymour as a friend, but only to him.
"I came here to make sure that you kids were doing your homework assignment. Have you, Pence, and Olette finished it?" asked Seymour
"Yeah, we did, don't worry. We did it as soon as summer started, that way it would be done and out of the way so we could just enjoy the rest of our vacation" announced Hayner.
"I see... good, good..." smiled Seymour, but then, he continued
"What about Seifer, Rai, and Fuu? Have they finished the assignment?" asked Seymour
"I don't know. Go ask them yourself, they should be somewhere in town..." replied Hayner
"Hmph. I see..." remarked Seymour.
"By the way Hayner..." started Seymour "I want to see how much you've really learned from me. Do you mind?"
"Huh!" gasped Hayner
Seymour raised his right arm and summoned up a pretty small staff. The top was red and in a crazy style, but it kind of looked angelic. The staff handle was a sparkling blue with a brown bottom to the staff. Two, red, ribbons were tied right below the staff top, and attached to the bottom of those ribbons, were two, golden bells.
Did Hayner actually want to fight his teacher, Mr. Seymour? Well, actually, yes. Hayner never saw Seymour fight, and he kind of wanted to see what his teacher was made of since the school, apparently, only hired tough and pretty strict teachers to keep the students in line and disciplined.
Hayner took out his Struggle Sword and got in his fighting stance, and smiled. This would probably be the only time Hayner would smile during a fight.
"I'll take that as a "yes" then..." decided Seymour
Was Seymour really testing Hayner? Or something else? Only time would tell...
P.S.: Didn't this guy learn his lesson in FFX! I guess not... ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
