    He was staring at my body. I was wearing a pair of short shorts that showed off my long legs and a peach-pink tank top, my long messy orange hair loose around me.

    I hit him in the jaw, neatly bringing his eyes back up to mine. He found me glaring at him.

    Don Kanonji laughed uneasily, holding up his hands in pacification. "Girl," he said, "I would like to reiterate my offer to make you my sidekick -"

    "My apologies, sir, it was my evil twin." I said it with a straight face.

    "Your evil twin?!" he asked disbelievingly, staring at me. This particular man tended to say everything in exclamation points.

    "Yes, sir. I have an evil twin. She is the bane of my existence. She impersonates me at every turn, ruining my all-important reputation with the student body. To think she would sink this far. You have no idea, sir, how much this betrayal wounds me." I would have seemed entirely serious except for the sarcasm in my voice. By now several people including the wizened little old principal were trying not to laugh.

    "YOU'RE TOEING A FINE LINE, KUROSAKI!" the gym teacher spat in my face.

    I smirked. "And you're inappropriately close to a student. Sensei. And in front of your superior of all people."

    He stepped backward, blushing furiously. "And - and you all!" he sputtered, pointing at my friends. "You were there yet you did nothing to stop her!"

    That was when Rukia put on her great act. The waterworks began. "Oh, I'm so sorry, Sensei! Ichigo-chan wanted to be on television, I tried to stop her, but I couldn't -!"

    The gym teacher at last bent over Rukia, concerned, turning his back to the rest of us - and one by one my friends slipped out the window. I gave a cheeky little wave to Ochi-sensei and the principal on my own way out the window. Ochi-sensei rolled her eyes and sighed, shaking her head. The principal waved back cheerily.

    We slid down the overhang protecting the first floor, landed on the ground, and - "WHERE ARE YOU GOING, YOU LITTLE PUNKS?!"

    "RUN FOR IT!" Keigo shouted, and we took off, sprinting, laughing, across the grounds. The gym coach's infuriated shouts faded into the distance. We stopped, strolling along, taking deep breaths and still laughing, when Rukia rejoined us.
