"I feel we need to discuss the important factors. The students are-" Suddenly the silence and stoic nature of the room is interrupted by a horn-like noise and a popping sound.

"Woooohooooo!! Go Team!! Oh- I-I'm just so proud of them, taking care of little Luka... sticking together it just-" John began to sniffle and cry a bit so Cutie put the bottle of wine down and offered him some tissues.

"Thank you-"

With one final sniff John took some and blew his nose and disposed of them in the trash can she also brought to him. All the faculty looked around at John with their eyes rolled, brows furrowed, awe, and confusion. However Ms. Sakuragi Nanami held much more on her end than they did, a small amount but a no less deadly ball of rage within her that showed in the vein on her forehead. John was currently wearing pink star sunglasses, a party hat. He held balloons that said
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyr0tfdDMyw
"Welcome Year 8 Turned On Its Side." and "To The Stars And Beyond."
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqj5cOpUsEG
Cutie was also as dressed up as him with a party hat of her own, red star glasses, she also had a party horn in her mouth explaining where the noise had come from. She had little party noise makers in her hand, shaped like well hands that smacked together as she shook her hands making the noise makers give a round of applause.

"JOHNATHAN BEOWULF!!"
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaRD0NFZYjm
Their excitement was cut through by the roaring rage within Ms. Nanami's voice which caused John to jump and look at her.
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFqe0f8NEAb
"We are in the middle of a very important meeting and you're treating this as a- Uh- Sir!"
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvOFsjDsWjH
Nanami looked at Principal Salomon who was currently getting a glass of wine from Cutie, taking his glass and taking a drink from it.
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3CfhFkzaHR
"Sir this is a very important meeting, I-I don't think this is appropriate behavior. What will the board think?"
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdh4YX4UtKr
"Why does it matter what they think of us? For years they had painted us in such a vicious manner, calling us "Teachers with hearts of black" people who "Cared for their image more than their students". But I must ask Ms. Nanami, what was it you were going to say before John's interruption."
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCp1t8b8Wv9
"I- Yes. I was going to say that the students are much more active this time around than before. Prior-"
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg8JKT0ky1m
"Excuse me Ms. Nanami but I need to hear that one more time, these old ears of mine require it."
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO5kcRi437Y
"Of course sir, I said the students are much more active this time around."
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSF6woCQA1
"That! Right there." Principal Salomon took another sip of wine as he exhaled.
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTNpZNJ8OVH
"This is exquisite, Ms. Carmine, please offer it to everyone."
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNYPc5yefw
With a nod Cutie set off grabbing a serving table from seemingly nowhere and wheeling around with various wine glasses serving them to the various teachers there, some took and others declined.
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdmIOaQR4Dj
"Hear me my comrades, those exact words "the students are much more active this time around" does that not bring a rise to the soul for any of you as it does me? Does that not speak of great progress, watch them."
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxN7BDMajZ
On screen Salomon would gaze at the students and watch as Nepthys and her team worked together to fend off the attacks from the attacking team.

"When was the last time we saw such competitive nature within our youth? In such an early manner, not just by the ones but by the dozen?"
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe4uDYnyN0Z
"My team indeed was much more competitive in their years, fighting as hard as they could on their own and thus their strengths made them gravitate towards one another but when you look. By the choice of selections we've done we've made improvements. Teams that operate off of just their own individuality and what they know is and always will be doomed to fail. There's no I in team but there is one in win but you can't spell win without the other two letters. So now we're gonna make winners of them all!"
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtAfUNbzFUi
John leaned back too far and scrambled before falling back.
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZl2jbPYOzY
"Aaaaugh... Guess my chair didn't like my enthusiasm."
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsurQpRd2yz
"But sir I don't see it, I'm sorry but how is this better. We have our students fighting amongst themselves. Mr. Kobushibo's son should know better than to be doing this, this behavior will breed problems."
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡif36jb0edP
Salomon nodded and took another sip of his wine before standing and walking towards the glass overlooking the nearby town and school.
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKrRUo1EfLW
"Ms. Nanami. What do you think is the biggest struggle of the youth?"
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4R1BVA3nVK
"I'd have to take a few hours to compile a list, I'd say their inability to listen to their elders. Their tendencies towards rebellion."
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6zbqOTobK9
"Agreed. What of all of you? What do you think the answer to be?!"
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsz8jPB3711
The teachers sat in silence all looking at one another and murmured trying to figure it out.
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbI0MVhZnC6
"I'll tell you. It's expectations. The biggest destroyer of the young mind. Every young student believes they should be what is expected of them, they believe they should be what everyone else is. Famous, popular, powerful!"
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVjER37DcC
Salomon placed his glass down.
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtgy6liDHe
"And yes, while these are good traits to have, it limits their growth exponentially by causing them to look at the glass half full. Instead of looking within themselves to build upon their strengths and recognize their faults they see their faults working for others and thus begin their self destructive tendencies. With our system of team work we plan to root that problem within them. Seeing what their teammates can accomplish may destroy many of them and many of them may quit but as is human nature. We can't help but aid one another-"
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxQHycuzmOR
Motioning towards the screen Salomon showed two students, one running and taking notes in the battle before he shouted out to his comrade who threw an ice spear and slayed a large Hakalanth by stabbing a crystal hidden within its fur.
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNH81pv8M2w
"When we see that our talents may finally prove themselves useful to others. Through this we can build the strongest bonds we've ever constructed in this school's history. A singular step in the right direction can make those with it and has been the destruction of those without it. Now I look to you all with these final words till our next meeting. Help these young souls curb their self destructive tendencies, before the world uses those same tendencies to crush them under heel."
