He met us at the front entrance; from here I can see where Daniel dropped me off a few moments ago. Principal Gardner looks surprised when he sees me coming from behind him instead of the doors where he probably expected me to appear from; but I didn't survive this long by doing what people expected me to, "Ah, you're the transfer student! I...see you're not a fan of using the front door..." He stated the obvious observations

"You are in charge of this facility." I countered his obvious statement with one of my own

"Well, technically yes, but I like to think of myself as, well, more of a...consultant for my students' daily lives!" He laughed awkwardly and even my guards looked somewhat uncomfortable, "Ah...anyway, uhm, why don't we take this back to my, uh, office? Away from the officers."

"That would be preferable," I respond. I'm not particularly afraid of the officers, in fact even if they attacked me right now I am reasonable certain I could defeat both of them relatively quickly, but stand-up fights are something I prefer to avoid whenever possible.

"Right this way, then."
