Shizuka Ninomiya: Clarity

This is a continuation of "Sango Namiki: A Fancy Walloping


He had dreaded it, but he had expected it, and he knew what was going to happen.


Jack had received a letter from the disciplinary committee, more specifically from the chief of the committee herself, Shizuka.


"Hello there Jack, this is the chief of the disciplinary committee, Shizuka. I was made aware of an incident that occurred between you and another male student. He came forth to tell me about the situation but was very vague on it. I would like to hear your side of the story regarding what happened. I understand if you are unable to make it today but do remember that if you don't show up within the next week a punishment will be doled out. Please do try to find time to make it to the committee room, you seem like a nice person given what I've heard from other girls, and it's just not like you to act like this." Was the letter that Shizuka wrote. The chief didn't have to worry though because just a few minutes after Jack received the letter, he made his way to the committee room, more than ready for any punishments that might follow. As soon as he makes it to the room, Shizuka awaits him. Her dark blue hair is secured with a white headband and her glasses stand out more than her mauve eyes do.


"I received the letter not too long ago." Jack says as Shizuka leads him to a fairly empty room with just a table and two chairs.


"Well, I guess to start, tell me what happened." Shizuka says. "Even I'm trying to make sense of what's going on because the guy that reported the incident left very little for me to work with."


"Well, it all started when I was called to escort a girl named Sango, Sango Namiki." Jack begins. "There was this pervert that was blocking our way out of the main building and I will admit I said some threats to try and get him to move to the side. He did move, but then he grabbed Sango's butt, and I just lost it."


"It's clear as day from the footage that we captured." Shizuka says as she pulls up the footage. It clearly shows what the pervert did to Sango and the one hit knockout that Jack delivered to said pervert. "He came in with most of his front teeth missing."


"If he hadn't grabbed Sango I wouldn't have done something like this. I'm very chivalrous and I absolutely hate it when guys mess with girls like that." Jack says. "I'm willing to accept the consequences."


"At least you are taking it with dignity." Shizuka says. "While he may have deserved it, it is against the rules to attack someone, even if it's for a justifiable reason like this." And with that Jack hangs his head low, closing his eyes. "But I do know that you're a good person. You have good intent, it was just put about in the wrong way. I hear all the time from other girls about how generous you are, how you always come to help them out with whatever it is they need." And Jack's head rises up to meet her eyes. "You'll be sentenced to twenty four hours of community service, filled out at your pace." Shizuka finally says.


"I accept." Jack simply replies as the two shake hands.


"If I were you I probably would have done the same thing, but there are other ways to settle things like this." Shizuka says benevolently. "We're only human, and mistakes can be our greatest teachers when rules don't quite do the job. I'll deal with this young man appropriately, but you are dismissed. Thank you for your time."




Jack's thoughts: She's very understanding despite having a reputation as a stickler for the rules. I knew what I did and I even knew I was going to expect a letter from the committee. I will be filling out my community hours pretty quickly as my schedule is pretty free.
