The Office of Doom
0o0o0o0
“InuYasha Taiyoukai, just the boy I wanted to see! I need to see you in my office, young man. Your attitude needs some serious adjusting.”
InuYasha cringed at the feel of a large, meaty hand on his shoulder, and the smell of cheap wine. He had tried to be nice to the principal, to stay on his good side, but since he was constantly being sent to The Office of Doom, he had developed a wise-ass tone just for the hapless administrator.
InuYasha sneered at Mr. Tyrant. His ego was as inflated as his name suggested, so he always thought that he could intimidate the students with his loud booming voice and his tall, stocky build. Because of this, InuYasha took it upon himself to deflate the man's big fat head.
Mr. Tyrant removed his hand at InuYasha's sneer, and proceeded into his office. InuYasha casually followed, trying to master that long, cool look that he'd seen Sesshomaru give to his inferior employees when he wanted to show them that he was superior.
As InuYasha entered the office, he saw Miroku exiting.
“Hey, Miroku. How'd you get sent here?”
“Girl's locker room. Oh, the squealing, the squealing.” InuYasha gave his friend a smirk, and wondered why Miroku hadn't been expelled yet.
Probably because the principal's a pervert too. Just great, Miroku gets immunity from the ego king, but I don't.
InuYasha walked into the dark and dingy office, and was reminded a little of the dungeons at Bastille.
“Please Mr. Taiyoukai, have a seat. I would like to speak with you on occurrences that occurred on campus yesterday afternoon.”
InuYasha's cold look grew colder. Mr. Tyrant always mispronounced his name, so it sounded like Enyouyeahsha Tahyoukah. Not to mention the man thought that he always was correct, and that everyone else was wrong, so although InuYasha corrected him, he never paid attention. InuYasha had gradually learned to stop wasting his breath.
“Now, according to Ms. Kikyo, you attacked her, giving her a fatal injury, without any apparent reason behind your actions. Is this true?”
InuYasha bit his lip to keep from saying the truth, that Kikyo was a total bitch, and that she had tried to intimidate them, and that she had also been spying on them, and that the pictures were of him hugging Kagome tenderly, and of Koga kissing Kagome, with a look of terror in her eyes. Those pictures had made InuYasha's temper lash out, in the form of his demon self. He had been angry that Kikyo and her lackeys had spied on them, and angry that Koga had caused Kagome so much pain, and jealous that Koga had gotten to kiss Kagome without embarrassment.
But InuYasha held all of this emotion in check, and managed to keep the cold facial expression on without anything else leaking through. He wasn't going to spill everything to this ignorant man; all Mr. Tyrant wanted was an affirmative from InuYasha to further prove his own supposed greatness. So InuYasha didn't grace Mr. Tyrant with an answer.
Instead he cocked an eyebrow, and looked at the principal's forehead, refusing to look him in the eyes.
“Maybe I did, maybe I didn't, why should I tell you?” His voice sounded cold and smooth, and he could feel his eyes become cold and unfeeling as well. “And besides, that injury wasn't fatal, I barely scratched her. She was lucky to escape with all of her limbs.” InuYasha's anger began to rise up, so he reminded himself that he was a rock, a block of ice, that a wall protected him, and that he was alone in a fortress where no one could attack. His expression hardened, and stayed that way.
“What am I going to do with you InuYasha, not only are you a psychopathic delusional, but you are also a liar. Kikyo's going to have that cast for weeks, and all you can say is that her injury wasn't fatal. I am very disappointed with you.”
InuYasha struggled to keep his face cold. Wow, he's disappointed! Now I'm gonna shriek like a little girl, and run away with my tail between my legs. Big whup. He's put me through detentions, suspensions, everything except expulsion. And right about now, expulsion would seem pretty good. At least Kagome would be okay. Sesshomaru doesn't care; he'll just look at me and say `Good for you.' then go back to eating his dinner. And I'll find myself a new school, same as always.
InuYasha thought of dead kittens and starving little girls, and sure enough, his smirk never appeared on his face.
“Since no matter of punishment is working, we're going to switch your schedule so that you have all your classes with Kikyo. That should be punishment enough, and who knows, maybe you'll get to know her a little better, and you'll become friends. I've also arranged for you to work on all the same projects and assignments whenever everyone needs to get into groups. It's the perfect solution!”
InuYasha really was struggling now. Dead puppies, kids committing suicide because their parents beat them, demons killing Kagome, anything evil or tragic. But despite his efforts, his shock at the injustice of it all must've shown through because the principal gave him the evil eye.
“And I don't want to hear a word out of your mouth about it! It's a perfect answer to my dilemma…I mean YOUR dilemma, and someday, you'll thank me.”
And when that day comes pigs will have hover jets, and people will walk on their hands. Dammit all! He is so full of it, that it's not even funny! That bitch-ass is gonna make sure my life becomes a living hell, and beating her to a pulp isn't gonna help. I have two options; I could run away from home and become a drug-dealer on the streets, or I could go along with it, and just ignore Kikyo. Darn it, I can't run away today, Sesshomaru's hired help is taking the night off, so we'll be having ramen for dinner. Might as well go along with this piece of bullshit, and just ignore the living hell out of Kikyo.
InuYasha couldn't help but let a little smirk grace his face at the thought of killing Kikyo with his claws passed through his mind. He ignored the principal's little rant about how so many parents would approve of his idea to keep InuYasha out of trouble, and walked out of the nasty office.
InuYasha walked out into the hallway, completely oblivious of the stares and whispers he attracted as he passed the other students by.
At least Kagome will be in more of my classes now. I wonder how she puts up with Kikyo…
