School Days
By: Takerus Lost Angel

The lights flickered across the dance floor as the music filled the air. Hikari stood near the entrance greeting the students as they entered the gym, she swayed to the music; enjoying the night out from her apartment. Do not get her wrong she loved staying at home with Takeru, but it was always nice to get out and do something. She noticed most of her students standing off in the far corner not really taking part in the festivities.

 

She felt someone tap her on her shoulder; she turned around to come face to face with bright blue eyes. “Ta…ta…keru? What are you doing here?”

 

Takeru's eyes twinkled with amusement at his surprised wife. “I thought I just would come down here and see what the big deal was. Considering all you have been doing for the last couple of weeks is planning for this dance.” He said teasingly. “I felt a little neglected.” He said in a mock hurt voice.

 

Hikari lightly punched her husband in the arm. “Ha! You are so funny you know that?” Takeru smirked as he pulled his wife into a loving embrace, tenderly kissing her lips. Hikari tried to pull away before anyone noticed this form of attention, too late.

 

“Meow! Looks like Takashi-sensei has snatched herself a date.” Meitetsu winked at his teacher, as the rest of the class giggled at their teacher's reddening face.

 

Hikari pulled away from Takeru before addressing her class. “Students I would like you to meet…” Hikari paused how was she going to introduce Takeru, it was not like he was a teacher.

 

Takeru finished his wife's thought. “…Takeru. Takeru Takashi.”

 

The class stared at the man for a minute. “Takeru Takashi as in the Takeru Takashi. Author of those adventure books involving the Digital World?” Asuna chirped while raising a brow. Takeru nodded numbly. “Oh my gosh! I love those books! My favourite character is Izzy, I love his digimon Tentomon. I wish I could be as smart as him.”

 

“No way! Tai is the coolest! He's so brave!” Eito chimed in.

 

“You both are wrong, Matt's the coolest!” Akiyuki argued.

 

“How do you come up with all those ideas?” Katsu questioned, dreamy eyed.

 

Hikari and Takeru exchanged glances, only if they knew how he got all those ideas. Hikari ushered her class back towards the dance floor. “May I remind you that this dance is for you, and not for interrogating my husband?” She smiled at the retreating forms.

 

She linked arms with Takeru and escorted him towards the refreshment table, introducing him to several other staff members.

 

A pair of angry looking teens walked up towards Meitetsu and Akiyuki, both wearing a pair of stupid grins on their faces. “Looks like you two are having a good time?” The taller of the two questioned.

 

Meitetsu and Akiyuki shrugged their shoulders as the started to walk away from the two other kids. The taller boy grabbed Akiyuki's shirt and spun him around. “I wasn't done talking to you!” He seethed.

 

Akiyuki stared at the boy. “I already told you a couple days ago, I don'ts know where my brother is.”

 

“Ha! Yeah right! You're protecting him and if you don't tell me where he is, I'm going to pummel you!”

 

“Hey! Doofus! Didn't you hear him the first time! He said he doesn't know where his brother is!” Meitetsu argued.

 

“Shut it!” He yelled, pushing Meitetsu back. He looked back at Akiyuki his teeth bearing. “Your momma's a whore! That's why you and your brother are so messed up.” He smirked.

 

Akiyuki's face faltered, no one talked bad about his mother. Akiyuki wrenched his arm back; he swung it forward connecting with someone's face. Meitetsu stared in awe at the events unfolding in front of him; not missing a beat Meitetsu tackled the other boy to the ground. Punches were thrown; pushing and shoving were emerging as the four teens rolled around on the floor.

 

Hikari heard a commotion and looked over her shoulder, students started to form a circle around the feuding four, they were cheering the fight on. Hikari rushed over to the fight, Takeru right on her heals. “Stop it!” She yelled as she tried to pry the boys off of each other.

 

Takeru grabbed one of the teens and held him back, while Akiyuki and Meitetsu wiped the sweat from their brows. Bruises were starting to form on their faces, as Hikari sighed. This was not going to be easy to explain this to Principal Wataru. Then again maybe she would not have to explain.

 

“Hikari!” Wataru bellowed through the gymnasium. Hikari cringed. “What the hell is going on here?” He looked between the two groups of feuding teens. “In my office now!” He pointed towards the gymnasium doors, two of the four students trudged behind the principal; the other two smugly looked at each other, Takeru shoved them forcing them to follow suit, with Hikari taking up the rear.

 

Wataru closed his office door, and sat down in the chair behind his desk. He rubbed his temples before looking at the four teens in front of him.

 

“Principal Wataru, I can explain…” Hikari began before being cut off by Wataru.

 

“We had an agreement Hikari”. Wataru looked at the two other boys. “Tabito and Daiki is it?” The other two teens nodded towards the Principal. “You two are to go home, you are no longer welcome at the dance, and I will be calling your parents. Now get out of here.” Wataru turned his attention towards the other two. “You two are suspended for a week; you are not welcome on the school premise until next Friday. You two are dismissed.”

 

Hikari watched as he two students walked out of the office. Hikari looked at the Principal in astonishment. “I think you are being a little unfair here. All four of them were equally guilty for what happened!”

 

“Hikari, it is not your decision to make. When you are Principal of a school, then you can deal with things the way you want to. This is my school my rules. From this point forward your students are not to participate in any school excursions or school events. If I had it my way these students would not even be permitted in this school. You and I both know that when these students take their high school entrance exams that they will only be accepted to a community high school, let alone a private school. I can bet you that even if they do pass, majority won't even go.” He said strictly.

 

Hikari wiped a tear from her eye. “That is where you are wrong. These kids are going to succeed and I'm going to make sure of it.” She opened the door to the office and left.

 

The weekend passed as a blur, Hikari did not pay much attention to anything. She was trying to figure out a way to convince Wataru to allow the two boys back to school sooner then later.

 

“Hikari, you heard what the boss said; and though it's not the fairest decision you have to realize that he is in charge, and he has to watch out for the school. I trust his judgment, every day that you go to teach I fear that you are going to get hurt.” Takeru stated sympathetically, while rubbing his wife's hand.

 

Hikari pulled her hand out of her husband's grip, and coldly looked at him. “You are siding with him? Takeru you of all people, I would have thought you would see the goodness in them.” She stood looking at Takeru. “You are unbelievable! How ironic, the child that had the crest of hope and bared all the qualities, is sure lacking it right about now.”

 

“Hikari, you do not mean that.”

 

“You do not think I can do it, do you? You are just like the rest of them; you think I'm going to fail.”

 

“Hikari, you're twisting my words around.” The blond argued, his voice beginning to rise.

 

“Takeru, I do not want to hear it.” Hikari put on her coat and shoes and slammed the door. She needed time to think, time to breathe. Why was the world out to get her, had she done something horrible and had not realized yet. Was this kami's idea of punishment, because obviously the class was not enough of a punishment? She was a good person, she looked out for others, and then why was her life so miserable?

 

The young teacher walked the streets of Odiba, eventually making her way to the park. She sat on one of the benches and watched as people walked by, as if not one single of them had a care in the world. It had been a month since she had taken over the class, and yet she still did not understand why all of them were in there. Obviously, many of them did not have the guidance or support they needed, but what drove them to act out this way was still a mystery.

 

When she asked why they were there most of them answered because the staff could not handle them so they were not liked, but she knew deep down that someone of them were hiding more then what they let on. Take Reiji for instance, not once had he ever cause a problem in her class, yet he was in there along with everyone else. True, he was abnormally quiet, which she had to agree did freak her out a bit; but he was an observer. He observes the world around him with great interest.

 

Then there was Katsu and Saori, the only other person she knew that would dye their hair outrageous colours would be Mimi. The two of them together could be a bit of a handful constantly talking and gossiping through lectures, but they were really sweet. Just their fashion sense took a nose dive into weirdness.

 

She understood why Fukashi was in her class, what teacher would not be upset when their student would sleep all through class. She did not think her classes were boring, but every once in a while Fukashi would doze off interrupting her lessons with his snoring. He did not talk much or hand in assignments, but she knew if he applied himself he would achieve great things.

 

Isa and Tsukimi was another pair made in heaven, at least the two of them were a little more discreet with their gossip through the art of note passing; however using their homework assignments as their note paper was quite discouraging. Especially when marking an assignment and during mid sentence you find out who's been dating who.

 

Eito was a mix between shy and quiet and quick witted. He was very intelligent; always handing in his assignments first and always answering questions, but then again like the saying goes `it's always the nice ones'; she soon learned that Eito had a bit of an evil streak in him. Though it was never proven, the rumor was that Eito was the one to set the bathroom on fire.

 

Then there was Meitetsu and Akiyuki, quite the mystery the two of them. Meitetsu definitely was the king of smart ass remarks but he was a loyal friend, just the other night at the dance proved it. Meitetsu did not have to jump in and fight, he could have walked away and not got in trouble, but he stayed around and helped Akiyuki. Akiyuki was the biggest mystery of them all, he tries desperately not to let his true colours show, but at times he slips up and shows them. She sighed, this class was special, and it was her class.

 

She felt someone tap her on her shoulder, she looked up to see Takeru standing there with two coffees. “Hikari, I hate it when we fight.” He sat down beside his wife handing her a cup.

 

Hikari nodded. “I hate it too, I'm sorry about what I said. I did not mean it.”

 

Takeru placed his arm around his wife. “I know you didn't. I mean did not.” He furrowed his brow. “That just sounds weird, did not.” Hikari chuckled at his confused state. I love you Hikari.”

 

She smiled. “I love you too.”
