I had forgotten what it had felt like to be clean. It was fantastic. After spending about two hours getting all the dirt and grime off myself in the shower and making a plan to burn my uniform I was standing in the Headmaster's office. When I walked in Zero was already there. I saw him smile and nod in approval. I was wearing a purple miniskirt, and black blouse, and black combat boots. I probably looked like a punk rocker or something. He on the other hand was wearing a blue T-shirt and light brown pants. His silver hair was still damp.
I came up and held his hand. The Headmaster was sitting at his desk eyeing us as Zero leaned down and kissed me. The Headmaster waited for us to finish, before questioning us. We told him our entire story. When Zero told him about the fight between him and Adrian my uncle turned to me.
"How did you know how too…"
"How to take care of him after he went and hurt himself?" I finished, "Adrian used to get himself hurt with martial arts. A girl learns." I felt Zero stiffen at the mention of Adrian and I squeezed his hand.
When we finished our story the Headmaster stared at us. Finally, he leaned forward. At that moment the room shook, jarring us.
"By the way, while you were gone World War III started," the Headmaster said casually when the shaking stopped.
