Rob laughed again at the cranberry sauce was smushed into his suit and winked at the nurse. "If your so fond on polka dots on me then you should feel free to put some on me anytime," he replied with another saucy wink. He followed her look down to the students and the tension was high. Only a few seconds after Eleanor called Dubhan, Prince Tom and Lord Kenton were on the ground with Tom bleeding lightly and Kenton trying to fully breath. The security guard was soon down there and Rob was on his feet. That's when Dubhan walked in and Rob immediately ducked his head.

The Nightmare Prince

Tom froze as he felt steel on his neck and his feet leave the ground, and laughed a cold, heartless laugh. As the strange staffer lectured him and lowered him back to the ground at the behest of some tiny girl who held no power, Tom kicked Kenton aside. To his dismay, Kenton seized Tom's ankles and brought him down as well. Tom crashed to the stone floors, tumbling over on his side and drenching his jacket in Kenton's discarded water before coming to a skidding halt against the table. He watched as Kenton rose to his feet and retreated behind the table to stand by Maeza. Anger boiling ever higher, the shadow prince rose to his feet and kept rising, heart racing, eyes full of hate as he stretched his limbs out as far as they would go.

"LAY A HAND ON ME! DRAW BLOOD FROM MY VEINS! FLAY ME ALIVE AND I SWEAR I WILL END YOU IN NIGHTMARES," he roared, towering over the dining hall. "I hope for your sake you have eyes on every inch of your skin and you sleep with the lights on. Toy with me and I will haunt you such that you'll wish you never woke up this morning."

He turned his rage towards Kenton, who stood tall and did not falter. "I. Will. Destroy. You," he growled, reaching towards him.

Headmaster, Law and Ethics

"THAT. IS. ENOUGH."

The doors swung open, revealing a man with greying skin and blackish smoke flowing from the stump of his neck. He carried his head in the crook of his left arm, and the handle of an oar in his right that he pounded against the ground to get the attention of the hall. Dubhan Connolly, the headmaster of the Academy, had finally found his way to the hall.

The dullahan didn't make a habit of attending meals, since it felt oddly self-defeating to waste time around food he could not eat, but presence was important on this night. He stepped forward, his boots clacking against the stone as Thomas sank back to the ground and Kenton stiffened his posture in respect. Ghostly green eyes surveyed the scene before him as he avoided puddles of rice, applesauce, and various other foodstuffs on his way to the center of the room where his altercating students and only helpful member of staff awaited.

"What are you doing?" he asked Thomas. This was far from his first altercation with the shadow prince.

"Getting stabbed," Thomas implied, showing the gash on his face. It was a clean, very shallow cut, the blood impossibly diluted to have been caused by steel.

"I think not." He turned to Kenton and Maeza. "Who started it?"

"I did," Kenton said, stepping forward in front of Maeza. "Sir Prince was acting dishonorably and I sought to correct it."

"And yet you are nearly unharmed." Dubhan sighed, and looked to his messy, utterly unprofessional looking staff and back at the gathered students. "To whom may I look for an honest answer?"

❖❖❖❖❖❖❖❖❖❖❖❖❖❖❖

Maeza's arm was starting to hurt so that she couldn't throw anymore without causing herself pain. She watched helplessly at Tom and Kenton went after each other again and again. She was about to yell for the man to stop when he put the knife to Tom's neck, but someone else beat her to it. But it all only got worse. Next thing Maeza knew Tom was beside her, towering over Kenton, who stood tall and brave. Then Herr Connolly was there and everything came to an abrupt end. When Kenton attempted to take the blame, Herr just brushed it off. So Maeza stepped around Kenton and stood as tall and straight as she could. "Herr, the fight was originally started by Thomas and myself. We're both a bit...stressed at the moment. Lord Kenton did join in, but it was purely in self defense. If anyone is to take blame, it should be Thomas and me."

This had gotten out of control faster than Izromos could catch up. However, when one of the prince's grew in height, he held his knife in a defensive posture, willing to do whatever to protect the students. What dangers have I wadded in on, he thought to himself.

When the Headmaster walked in, Izromos quickly lowered his knife and bowed his head to the man. The comment about being stabbed man the Mervid man throw a glare in the other's direction. "If I wanted to stab you, you would be dead by now, child. Skinned and meat drying," he threatened. What disrespect this boy had! Izromos was his elder, was stranger or not he should respect him!

"The Lady is only half right. The boy here started it, throwing some liquid of some sort. Then, she retaliated," he said as he turned his head back to his commander.

"Silence," he said quietly as Izromos started taking Thomas's bait. "Sir Amnicolo, I am lacking in first person observation of what happened, and so I will leave you with no blame, only this. We do not pull weapons on students unless we see drawn steel, loss of consciousness, or genuinely fear for the life of another. In all other instances, you are to contain the situation to the best of your abilities, separate any altercations, and call me no matter the time or place. We work with royalty, not criminals." Yet, at least. "Is that understood?"

He watched carefully as Tom's eyes narrowed when Maeza started trying to redirect the blame. "Bullshit," the prince snapped. "Kenton's confessed, what more do you need."

"A reason to believe he wanted to hurt you." Dubhan turned to face the troublemaking boy. This was far from their first unfavorable meeting; it rather brought back memories of last year when he'd yanked the prince out of the hall in a fairly similar scenario. "What little I know of Lord Orphic tells me that he is trained, professional, and a behavioral perfectionist. What volumes I could fill with the single year of attendance you and Princess Eigengrau have at this Academy tells me that you are temperamental despite your race and prone to loud, violent outbursts, and that the princess has tagged along as your lackey for many of your exploits in what I suspect to be a violation of her better judgment."

Thomas scowled, clearly caught. "Does all that tell you Mae started it?"

"It tells me who the gentleman in this scenario is," he quipped, if only to watch the dark prince squirm. Thomas wore his heart on his sleeve, and the water on his face betrayed a shattered sleeve indeed.

Nurse

Dubhan raised his oar handle to point at the staff table. "Who started this mess?" he asked, looking to the potatoed, ketchuped, and otherwise atrocious looking staff members lining the side of the table.

Sister Eleanor bit her lip. She'd stood up when the Headmaster arrived and had been watching the fiasco unfold from the staff table, her hair clinging to her face courtesy of potatoes and applesauce.

"Herr, Izromos is right," she said. "Thomas threw soup, Maeza threw fruit, and Kenton threw rolls. I'm so sorry, Herr—"

"This mess, Sister," Dubhan clarified, pointing around the staff table with his oar.

Eleanor's glance moved awkwardly to the rest of the table, and lingered on Rob. Mathieu was quietly disassembling his potato catapult, trying to avoid detection as he did so, and Rob was standing quietly beside her with spots of red and purple all over him. "Herr—"

"Sit," Dubhan instructed. Eleanor complied.

He twitched his hand, turning his head to face the staff table. "Sir Scolion," Dubhan said to Robert. "You are new to this school and to my employ, replacing a dear friend of mine and Monsieur's. I urge you to tread lightly as I ask you: why in the name of Samhain should I employ an etiquette teacher who uses food as ammunition?" he asked sternly.

Looking straight into the man's eyes, he listened as he was given a warning. To him, if any violence erupted between males, weapons could be drawn. Blood could be shed. Threats could be made. As long as the other male, the one in the wrong, knew his place. That was how his peaceful race worked. And if the male in the wrong was killed in the fight, well, the family had to accept his death as fair punishment and apologize for his wrong doings.

But, now he knew. He knew that this world was not his own and that while drawing a knife or a bow on a fellow man was acceptable to him, it was not to them. Nodding that he understood, he kept his eyes continuous on the Headmaster.

"Yes, Herr. I understand. I will not draw my weapons so readily again," he said as he leaned down to replace his knife and then stood back up remaining quiet and ready to be of use.

Dubhan stared down Robert to no avail. Perhaps continuing the conversation in private would elicit a more honest account. "Wash up, and then I shall see you in my office," he directed to the etiquette professor, turning his back on the staff table to address the rest of the school.

"I regret to inform you that the opening banquet has concluded," he announced, leaning his oar against a chair to raise his free hand to shoulder height, the better to attract attention. "You have entered the Academy Royale, an establishment wherein you will learn the finer points of the world in which you live and how to rule the one which sent you here. While you are here, you retain your title and rank, but no power."

He lowered his hand, surveying the students. "The grounds of the Academy are neutral ground where no student is better than another. There are no feuds, no wars, no blood ties, nothing will carry over from your homelands. We do not fight. We do not put down our peers. And we do not disrespect the authority as laid out by this school. As far as you are concerned, these members of staff are your Kings and Queens. As long as you are on these grounds, you will obey our rules and our laws."

Dubhan picked up his staff, taking a deep breath. "You are dismissed to spend the evening as you like. Classes will begin tomorrow morning, and each and every one of you is expected to attend. I wish you all a good evening."

He turned around, pointing at Thomas, Kenton, and Maeza. "Except for you three. Sir Amnicolo, please assist me in bringing these students to my office." Dubhan momentarily raised his voice to the staff table now that he was facing them again. "All of you are to report to my office as well," he said.

He seized hold of the back of Thomas's shirt and began marching him out of the dining hall.

Oh, now we've done it.

Mathieu held the bits of his potato catapult in his lap, cowed as Dubhan spoke to the school. He looked to the side, seeing Sister Eleanor chewing on her lip in silence. Dubhan spoke them again, and he cringed. It looked like they were all in trouble.

Eleanor rose first. Her head was bowed in utter mortification, and with a faint pop she vanished to her room in a small puff of purple smoke.

GOD, that's not fair.

Mathieu rose without another word and walked down the outer wall of the dining hall, heading back to his own room to wash the mustard out of his hair and clothes.

Is all that I'm asking for, without her I'm lost

Kings and Queens? That was a new one for Izromos. Never had he been seen as anything more than an asset and an winning key. Now, he would receive some respect for once in his life, and he would not abuse it.

Izromos watched as the Headmaster left the dining hall with the growing boy and left him alone with the two winged creatures. Really, he did need to start learning names, or paying attention to titles. He knew none of these kids names. "Come now," he said with a wave of his hand to the two students as he walked to the dining hall doors. There he waited until the girl and boy caught up and then proceeded to make his way to the Headmaster's room with the two 'criminal' in tow.

Kenton bowed his head as Dubhan spoke. Yes, it was true... that conduct hadn't been very professional or noble of him.

But he had to admit, he felt he was in the right in this particular instance.

Smoothing the collar of his jacket to lie flat, he held out his arm to Princess Maeza. "Shall we, Mad Princess?" he asked quietly.

He followed the guard out of the room and headed to Herr's office.

Maeza bowed her head as Herr Conolly continued, not wanting to look him in the eye. She simply waited everything out until they were addressed. Then she nodded and took a deep breath. She looked over at Kenton, who had some rice in his hair, and nodded, a small smile appearing on her face despite the serious mood. Again, she placed her arm over his, hand tingling slightly, and they left.

Rob looked up to meet Dubhan's gaze and tried to think of an answer, but he couldn't think of one. All he could do was hold the headmaster's gaze and nod. He cringed internally as the school and then they themselves were addressed. When they were finally released, Rob gave a deep bow and walked out of the room with as much dignity as he could.

Chris was most upset this happened. He knew Kenton as a gentleman, but he was loyal to Tom. Curse the wolf me. He shifted back back to his humanoid form and surveyed the mess. He's a nice kid but he can be such a mook. Still, Christopher sensed that he could probably use a friend. He didn't know where Tom was being dragged to, but the tracking skill kicked in and he followed the smell of his friend.

~Prince Cosmo Katamari~
The Littlest Prince of the Stars

Cosmo sat up straight and listened as the headmaster put an end to the banquet. That was disappointing. He still hadn't gotten to eat! Oh well.

"Well. That was exciting," he said uncertainly, hopping to his feet from his comfy seat atop a glass. "Um. I'll see you in class?"

Cosmo corralled his katamari ball and bounced off the table, rolling back out of the dining hall. Maybe there were still some snacks worth discovering on Gearvin's side of the room?
