As Mariko spoke to the middle aged receptionist, she looked up, her glasses flashing and pulled out a very large book, setting it down on the desk with a loud thump.  She began flipping through pages and finally stopped on one entry.  She looked up and spoke.<br/><br/><strong>"Mariko Kakuto.  You and the other new student, Shinji Yamagawa will be in Homeroom 1-F.  He should be- ah.  There he is."<br/></strong><br/>A boy with black hair wearing the blue Furinkan High School boy's uniform approached from behind Mariko, stopping at her side at the front desk.  He offered the receptionist a slight bow, absently glancing at the pretty girl beside him with a shy smile before turning his attention fully on the older woman.<br/><br/><strong>"Sorry for being late.  I heard you say we're both in 1-F?"</strong><br/><br/>The receptionist nodded apathetically, as though she hated her job.<br/><br/><strong>"Yes.  Third floor.  You can't miss it.  You should-"</strong><br/><br/>She was about to finish when suddenly the sound of a ukulele could be heard from somewhere... and her face went flat.<br/><br/><strong>"They don't pay me enough"...</strong><br/><br/>A voice came from above as a figure dropped down onto the desk.  He was very tanned, wearing very long shorts and a Hawaiian shirt with bare feet.  His hair was done up in a top knot made to look like a palm tree and along with the ukulele in his hands and the sunglasses on his face he had a ridiculous grin.  He looked down on the two new students as behind him the receptionist remained stone faced.  Shinji stepped back, blinking and got into a fighting stance, not sure what was going on.<br/><strong><br/>"ALOOOOOOOOOOOHA, keikis!  Me is da Headmaster of dis here Furinkan High School.  Me is here to be giving you very happy news!  De two of you get to be Big Kahuna's favorite students.  Mariko Kakuto and Shinji Yamagawa... me is making sure you got into de same homeroom as Ranma Saotome.  He is beeg troublemaker and me wanna make sure he gets de punishment he's been avoiding, so me say to meself 'Big Kahuna, these be good students who follow de rules, so they gonna be a beeg help to bring dat Saotome into line'.  So what you say?  Can me count on you keikis?"</strong><br/><br/>(http://i180.photobucket.com/albums/x158/Punstarr/PrincipalKuno.png)
