During lunchtime later that day, Himiko decided to skip lunch to go straight to Headmaster Kirigiri's office. She was marching with Tenko and Akane at her sides, and Gonta behind her. 

  "YOU!!!" a voice screeched from behind them. Himiko and her bodyguards turned to see Junko pointing furiously at Himiko. Byakuya, who was also seething, stood next to Junko. "You stole my victory, you little bitch!" Junko said in a terrible voice. 

   "Nonsense. I won fair and square," Himiko replied, calmly observing her fingernails. 

   "How could a lowlife with an I.Q. of a sunflower seed like you beat me?!" Byakuya growled, glaring daggers at Himiko. "Surely you cheated." Himiko smirked at him.

   "How rude! I didn't cheat at all. And don't call me Shirley," she smirked as she twirled a strand of her hair. 

   "I'll call you an ambulance, cuz you're sure as hell going to need one!" Junko roared before sprinting towards Himiko. Himiko snapped her fingers. Tenko and Akane sprinted into action. Akane grabbed Junko, while Tenko grabbed Byakuya.

  "LET GO OF ME!!!" Junko screamed.

  "Get your...ggr...filthy paws...off of me!" Byakuya growled, struggling to escape Tenko's grasp. Himiko grinned maliciously at them.

   "Throw them in the basement," she ordered Tenko and Akane. 

   "Looks like you're comin' with us!" Akane said. She and Tenko dragged Junko and Byakuya away. As their screams faded, Gonta turned to Himiko with a worried expression. 

   "Uh...Himiko? You allowed to do that?" he asked.

   "Nyeh...I had to do it, Gonta!" Himiko said, feigning desperation. "Don't you see? They were trying to take my place as class president! If that happened, they wouldn't let you have your bughouse!"

  "Oh, no! Gonta feel bad if he not get his bughouse!" Gonta cried. "Okay...if you say it's okay, Gonta guess it's okay, then."

   "I'm glad you think so, Gonta!" Himiko replied with a cheeky grin. "Come, we have to get to Headmaster Kirigiri's office." Once they arrived at Kirigiri's office, Himiko knocked on his door. 

   "Come iiiin," came the headmaster's voice. Himiko turned to Gonta.

  "Thanks for walking me here, Gonta!" Himiko said. "You're free to leave, now!"

   "President Himiko sure she can handle things by herself?" Gonta asked. 

   "Nyeh...yup!" Himiko assured, patting his hand. "I'll make sure to come get you if I need you. Oh! And make sure you tell Tenko and Akane the same."

  "Yes, ma'am, President Himiko!" Gonta replied with a happy smile. Himiko watched him walk away. Deep down, she couldn't help but feel bad for duping him. She shook her head to clear her thoughts. 

   I'm doing this for Kokichi, she thought to herself. And to prove everyone else wrong about me. There's no time for feelings. She took a deep breath as she stepped into Headmaster Kirigiri's office. She found him leaning drunkenly against the window, longingly staring out of it. In his hand was a bottle of wine. He turned to see Himiko close the door behind her. She stood in her supreme lady stance with her arms crossed, and her head held high up. She stood straight up tall as she eyed him. He scoffed at her.

   "Whaddya want...cLaSs PrEsIdEnT?" he asked in a mocking way as he took a massive swig of wine. Himiko's heart thumped against her chest as she prepared herself for what she was about to do. 

   "Actually, you have something that I want," Himiko replied confidently, though her insides felt anything but. Kirigiri looked over to her.

   "Whaaat?" he slurred. 

   "Just as I said, you have what I'm looking for," Himiko said. She placed her hands behind her back, and strode a few feet forward towards Kirigiri's desk in a contemplative manner. Then, she stopped and executed a perfect left face, so that she was facing the headmaster across the room. "I'm taking over your position." At this, Kirigiri snapped to attention.

  "What...did you...say to me?" he asked, shaking his head as if forcing himself to become fully sober.

   "Let me say this loud and clear: you are no longer the headmaster of this academy," Himiko said, enunciating every word. The headmaster stared at her in utter shock.

   "You...you think you can just come in here and t-tell me what to do?!" he asked incredulously, suddenly snapping out of his drunken state. Himiko smirked at him.

   "Oh, I know I can," she said. She eyed the bottle of wine in his hand. She tapped her chin in thought and gave him a smug smile. "Hmm...I wonder how the superintendent, ahem...your boss...would feel about you drinking on the job." Headmaster Kirigiri stared at her wide-eyed, then down at the bottle in his hand, which began to tremble. He sheepishly hid it behind his back. "I thought so," Himiko murmured with an evil grin. "I'll bet that if you were to be found out about that, you'd lose your job, your life, and whatever remaining itty-bitty ounce of respect your own daughter ever had for you. Your whole entire family would do worse than banish you like they did. They would flat out disown you. And you'd have no choice but to crawl into the deepest crevice of the Earth, where not even the cockroaches would want anything to do with you."

   "Who...who do you think you are?!" Headmaster Kirigiri demanded, pointing an enraged finger at her.

   "I know that I'm the headmistress of this school," Himiko replied in an unwavering voice as she smirked at him. "And you...you are no longer needed here. Not that you were ever needed here. Now, run along and go find yourself a little plumber job. That is what you wanted, riiight?"

  "You...you'll never get away with this!" Headmaster Kirigiri growled. 

  "But neither will you," Himiko replied. "Because if you tell anyone about this encounter, I'll spill the beans about your alcoholic problem. I'll probably be expelled, but, you...you'll have no job. And no job means no money. No money means nowhere to live. And nowhere to live means you'll be at rock bottom, struggling to survive. And nobody would dare help you out, you know why? Because you ruined your own life. What makes them think you wouldn't ruin theirs? You wouldn't wanna be in a position like that, riiiight?" Headmaster Kirigiri stared at Himiko, who stared back at him without flinching. He then hung his head.

   "You win," he mumbled dejectedly.

  "A-haha, don't give me that much credit.  You lost the moment you were born," Himiko replied. Headmaster Kirigiri trudged over to his refrigerator. "Ah-ah-ah...don't touch that fridge," Himiko warned, wagging her finger at him. "It's evidence I can use...just in case, since the wine bottles inside have your grimy fingerprints all over them." Kirigiri looked at her with utter shock, and, to Himiko's delight, some fear. She sat down in his chair and crossed her legs in a regal manner. "Who's laughing now...Jin? " Himiko said with an evil smirk as she narrowed her eyes at him.
