Chapter 15:

The Student Counsel

Saved By The Bell!


(As the next day approaches, it was a chilling morning as Tashiro and Senri were both doing morning training as he wishes to become strong enough to defend himself and protect Daxton in a fight.)

"Tashiro: Listen up Nakamura. Training under me is no easy task, I've taken a lot of students underneath my wing and most of them ended up using my style for either vengeful violence or self defense. At this very moment, you are not to call me Gonkuro, you will from now on address me as sensei or Tashiro."
"Senri: Yes Tashiro!"
"Tashiro: Alright. Now first things first, try and throw a punch at me."
"Senri: Huh?"
"Tashiro: Punch me with all you got, we're gonna test how strong you are."
"Senri: Uh.. a-alright.."

(As Senri was nervous for he was weaker than he believed, he'd punch Tashiro in the chest with all he had which did not do much damage.)

"Tashiro: Alright, this will be your goal. You are to train every day and night until you can make me move or manage to push me back."
"Senri: Really?!"
"Tashiro: I told you it would be difficult, let's get started!"
"Senri: Waaaa!!"

(As the school was opening its doors, students were arriving on the schoolgrounds or were leaving their dorms as the student counsel called in Kin, Renzo, Daxton and Henry into their office to officiate their ranks and class level.)

"Nai: The four of you were called in here today about your applications. On behalf of the Student Counsel, we accept all four."
"???: And with such being said, we've also decided your status in this academy from here on out as a fighting student. Ms. President, you have the floor."
"Nai: Henry "Indiana" Williams Jr. Nickname, Indiana. The Student Counsel has decided that you are rank #23 out of 2124. Making you one of the top 50 students of the academy. You will also be given elite status regarding your family's background and fight history."
"Henry: I humbly accept, president."
"Nai: Renzo Akikatsu. Nickname, Death. The Student Counsel of Chun See-Yoon is aware of your gruesome and aggressive fighting. Regarding the fact you have defeated twenty school champions across the world, the counsel has decided to rank you #11. This marks you as a candidate for the top ten fighters of our school and you will be given the elite status as well."

(As Renzo smirked, he accepted as Kin was up next.)

"Nai: Kin Yoshimura. Nickname, Hornet Queen. The Student Counsel is aware of your past as a Student Counsel member for Kyudenki Academy in Japan. Along with your long reigning second contender spot toward former Kyudenki Champion, Arashi Seibei, the Student Counsel has agreed to rank you #7. Alike the three, you will be given elite status."
"Kin: Thank you very much, President Hong."
"Daxton: ..."
"Nai: Daxton Hunter. The Student Counsel has actually considered you a very conversational case. Many of this school acknowledges you, many of this school does not wish for you to attend this institution. Ignoring the public voice, the Student Counsel has agreed to nickname you as what everyone calls you, the Bare-Knuckled Devil. And with that stated, you have been ranked #50. You will also be given elite status for two of your matches were trending topics."
"Daxton: ...! Thank you, thank you very much. W-Wait, where's Tashiro?"
"Nai: Due to Mr. Gonkuro's status as a reigning MMA Lightweight Champion, we legally cannot give him a rank here. The current champion would have to vacate the championship and... The champion is one to not let go of such possessions."
"Daxton: I see."
"Nai: At the moment, there is nothing else. But all elite classmen and woman are to be in floors three to six, that is where your classes will be held throughout the entire school year."

(As the four then were given their schedules and their names were inside Chun See-Yoon's database, they'd leave the room until the lights were shut off in the hallway and a spotlight focuses on a charismatic, glasses-wearing, attitude era styled student with a microphone.)

"???: LET ME TALK TO YA!"
"Bystanders: YEAH!"
"Daxton: ...?"
"???: I stand here at the top of these stairs and see four new slabs of meat dropped on our doorstep but I'm all for welcoming newcomers into MY school! But you lowlifes try anything funny and it'll be more than a joke when I shove my boots up your asses, YEAH!"
"Bystanders: YEAH!"
"Kin: ..."
"Henry: What even is-"
"???: I'm talking to you too, eyes up here cowboy! On behalf of the lovely people here, I HUMBLY WELCOME YOU TO CHUN SEE-YOON ACADEMY! YEAH!"
"Bystanders: YEAH!"
"???: PEACE OUT!"

(As the microphone was dropped and pop music plays out the student, the bystanders were cheering for the mysterious student as the four then walked away to get to their classes.)

"Daxton: What... What even was that..."
"Kin: I'm not sure but it was very obnoxious."
"Henry: Eh whatever, you guys are okay from here?"
"Renzo: Yes... I must scout my next prey."
"Daxton: Yeah I'll be alright."
"Kin: I should be able to manage from here. Meet up after classes are done?"
"Henry: Sounds good. See you guys until then."

(As everyone went to their assigned classrooms, Senri and Tashiro were still training as Senri was exhausted while everyone introduced themselves to their classes. In Kin's class, there were ten ordinary students and six elite status students, Renzo's class holds twenty ordinary students and three elite status students, Henry's class holds all ordinary students and Daxton's class was a mix of eight ordinary students and seven elite status students. As everyone were in their classes learning, Daxton was actually being the most active in class while ignoring the slander he is being given behind his back along with Kin in the same boat as Daxton.)

"Teacher #1: Eun-Soo. In history during the year 1950 in Korea, what event was declared during the month of April?"
"Puwa Eun-Soo (Ordinary Student | Male Student Body President): The event that occurred during that month is Battle of The Imjin River! Known as one of Korea's bloodiest wars written in history."
"Teacher #1: And the event occurred since...?-"
"Daxton: -The second World War."

(As Puwa was surprised he was stopped before answering, he was now weary of Daxton's quickness to answering a question. Meanwhile in Kin's classroom...)

"Teacher #2: Please read chapter 3, someone?"

(As Kin volunteers the classroom then follows along with her as she read while two students were currently texting each other back and forth mysterious chats as they were spying on the newcomers inside their school. As she finished, the teacher then asks the class questions as the two continued texting. After one last text saying "look out your window", the mysterious male classmate does as he'd notice Senri exhausted from training as the two were planning something suspicious. As time flies by, all classes were dismissed as shoes were heard stepping down the halls of the 4th floor classroom as the class then backed away from a long braided student with blue colored eyes as she then approaches Kin before she left her seat.)

"???: Yoshimura, Kin. That's you?"
"Kin: Yes. May I assist you with something?"
"Jieyon Rang (Nickname: Diamond Queen | Rank #2): I see you're nicknamed the Hornet Queen. But.. looking back on your records, your undefeated streak was crumbled. 173 days, how stupid must you feel?"
"Kin: ...It was a situation where I was placed off guard."
"Jieyon: Is that so? I'm sorry about that..."

(She'd clap her hands as two students among the student counsel delivers a bottle of her family's freshly squeeze grape juice and two glass cups. As Kin was on guard without trying to raise any suspicious activity, she'd watch Jieyon pour grape juice into the glasses.)

"Jieyon: Consider this, a welcome drink! I promise it's not tainted or anything."

(As Kin was still suspicious, she'd take the glass cup and takes one small sip before drinking it with her as Kin felt no sense of hostility inside her.)

"Jieyon: Well, what do you think?"
"Kin: ..It's delicious."
"Jieyon: I'm glad you like it! Hey boys, scram now."

(As the two then rushes off, Jieyon continued to have a normal conversation with Kin as Renzo was sniffing around for bullies. Meanwhile down the hall, he'd notice a crowd of students surrounding a female and male student who was fighting over a break up in front of everyone. Suddenly, Renzo halts the fight from getting any more out of hand as he gripped both of their fists while appearing in the middle of the circle.)

"Renzo: Now... Why must you two fight each other?"
"Male Student: Because she cheated on me for my best friend!"
"Female Student: He sold my panties online!"
"Male Student: That is such a lie!"
"Female Student: No it's not, you filthy pervert!"
"Male Student: IS NOT!"
"Female Student: IS TOO!"

(As the two continued to argue, one of the enforcers among the Student Counsel arrives as Renzo continued to hold the two from fighting any further. As students made way for the enforcer, he'd stare down Renzo as he sensed his bloodlust for bullies but placed his hand out for a handshake.)

"Changgok Hu-Kil (Nickname: Stone Fist | Student Counsel Enforcer | Rank #7): Akikatsu, right? I am Hu-Kil Changgok. I would like to shake the hand of a former multiregional champion."
"Renzo: ..."

(As Renzo then drops the two and shakes the hand of Changgok, he'd feel a strong grip as the two delivered a confident smirk on both of their strengths as Changgok then resolved the situation and takes both students in for further interrogation. Meanwhile, Henry was in the library reading a book on ancient artifacts and catacombs within Korea but was then interrupted by a curious yet smart reader.)

"???: Are you looking for catacombs within Korea?"
"Henry: ...Yeah. I heard about a legend that there lies an ancient artifact left by old descendants years and years ago."
"???: Oh you'll never find that in this book. I'd recommend "Myths & Treasure: Catacombs Edition." You'll be able to find that upstairs."
"Henry: ...Who are you..?"
"Juyo Sueng (Nickname: Genius | Student Counsel Member | Rank: #12): Sueng Juyo. Please to meet you, Mr. Williams Jr."
"Henry: You as well. I thank you very much."

(As Juyo then walked off with a smile knowing he was much help to Henry, he'd rejoin the Student Counsel who all was in their office to discuss the newcomers as time passed.)

"Juyo: So. Thoughts on the new students? I've grown quite an interest to Sir Williams."
"Changgok: Akikatsu and his strength holds no bounds. Fighting him will be like trying to tranquilize an African Savanna elephant."
"Jiyeon: Yoshimura's very interesting. I haven't seen anyone like her but I do believe she's weary of me now."
"Juyo: A birdie tells me she's interested in joining the Student Counsel."
"Nai: Rumors are rumors. If she were interested, we'd await her to join the counsel upon her own arrival and force-ordered trial."
"Jiyeon: Well, Student Counsel President, who interested you the most?"
"Nai: ...It's Hunter and Gonkuro. The two are exceptional beasts of combat but Hunter is more uncontrollable."
"Changgok: Hmm..."
"Puwa: Hunter is quite a smart individual as well, he managed to outsmart me in class today... My ego unfortunately cannot let it slide so I have dubbed thee as my rival!"
"Jiyeon: Yeah yeah, you and your fantasy world..."
"Puwa: Come on now!"
"Nai: Actually. There is something I've wanted to try. If Hunter is as uncontrollable as he is, he could be a serious threat to the school. But with Gonkuro and Nakamura at his side, I believe he'll be okay."
"Changgok: The Chun See-Yoon Enforcers won't let anything happen to the students. As protectors of this school, we spectate every area of the school and eliminate any and every issue possible."

(Nai then sits up from her seat and opens Daxton's permanent records, fighting history along with his win/loss ratio too.)

"Nai: Huh..? What's this?"

(The counsel then looks altogether into a file on why Daxton takes a certain medicine to lower his anger which sparked fear into all members of the counsel for the potential issue of a deranged fighter within their ranks.)

"Tashiro: So you found the hidden file."
"All: ...!!"

(Tashiro then appears out of the dark, smoking a cigar in the office with his feet kicked back on the desk and was explaining to them what to be weary of.)

"Nai: How did you-"
"Tashiro: That's not important right now. What is important is the fact that Daxton is a ticking murder bomb. What happened at Kyudenki Academy is nothing compared to what he did in prison. Especially during his solitary confinement."
"Jiyeon: ...How the hell is he even alive...?"
"Tashiro: The kid's ancestors were as stubborn and resistant as Vikings. If Daxton ever were to lose control of himself in anger or revenge, he would most definitely commit the most atrocious of crimes without anyone, not even law enforcement being enough to stop him."
"Changgok: ..."
"Puwa: ...For being born a human, my rival clearly isn't one.."
"Nai: We'll have to keep all eyes on Hunter from now on. Who knows what'll happen if this were to occur..."

(Meanwhile in a hidden area near the school's main building, a phone was found broken into pieces, discarded shoes that were destroyed and two shirts ripped apart as a trail of blood leads to remains of shaven/plucked out hair and an unconscious body with the uniform of Chun See-Yoon academy.)

"???: Who knew this creep was a girl the whole time?"
"???: Eh whatever, the job's done. Girl or not, the boss wants anyone with the last name "Nakamura" finished with. And we're done here, let's go."

(As the four then leaves, one of the four assailants placed out a cigarette and leaves the motionless Senri on the ground to die.)
