I'm pretty used to school uniforms, so I'll wear mine, but I'm wondering. How come a bunch of teenage bullies get to tell us what to do? Like, I know our parents aren't here but aren't there adults reading these things who are a little concerned about this Discipline Committee?

The truth is, they beat up students, sometimes for no reason at all. They don't have to follow their own rules if they don't want to, and from what I can tell a lot of them don't even go to class regularly. Also, they wear armbands. I don't see why this club gets to make major school decisions that can even override the teacher's.

It just bothers me a little. That's not what clubs are about.

Sometimes...

It got very political after a while. They started bullying small branches of our family. We stopped them, but it was discouraging... and difficult.

Ah... what do you plan on doing?

That depends how hard they hit me, I guess. Try and stop them picking on the younger kids, talk to some of the teachers, maybe petition to let some saner people be in charge. It's not the uniform, it's the committee.

Discouraging and difficult maybe, but you still did it!

Well, if we didn't, no one would. So we couldn't fail.

Ah! Usually, where I come from, whoever's stronger wins. I've never tried a petition or anything... They're picking on the younger children? That's terrible. It's one thing to have authority over people who can take care of themselves, but no one should bully children.

I'm probably not very strong by the standards held around here, but that doesn't mean I'm not smart or capable of thinking for myself. This is how democratic procedure comes about, because people get sick of bullies and tyrants being in charge. I'm not really that interested in political theory, I just hate all this conformist stuff. Even the punishments don't bother me, I got caned a couple of times back in the day. But if no-one stands up to them, the things they enforce will be crazier and crazier!

No, I agree! I don't mind the uniforms, I had to do that when I was in Todou... but it seems that other things are happening with it. If you want to resolve this peacefully, I want to do all I can to help!

Ah! I've seen you around but I don't think I've introduced myself. I'm Natsume Aya.

Any help's appreciated, though I wouldn't want you getting hurt.

I'm Neil Perry, it's nice to meet you, as much as someone can meet anyone like this.

Heehee, don't worry about me getting hurt! But I'll do all I can!
