Introduction

The Taiko Academy for the Prestigious used to be a luxurious elite school for students from wealthy families. It has comfortable chairs, air conditioning, fabulous classrooms, a large library, a pool, nice dorms, recreational institutions etc. But five years ago there was a fire that burnt the school down. Many students were surprised by the flames and some of them were lost in the fire. Now it is run down and dusty. It reopened this year. But when the students arrive, most of them now from average income families, they see what they didnt expect: An old school that appears more like a haunted mansion. The few teachers at the school are odd balls or creepy. The library is almost empty and the dorms arent luxurious.
There are rumors about the school being built on an old holy ground which makes the school even scarier. The laws of nature here even seem to be different: Magic can be used. Though the students dont know it yet. But after some time the students will recognize that the school isnt as bad as its first impression and they will try to make it more comfortable.
Subjects: History, Maths, Chemistry, Biology, Sports, English, Japanese, Literature, Philosophy, Cooking, Arts, Music
Students can make their own school clubs with approval of headmaster (headmaster will probably allow anything)
Facilities: Pool (needs cleaning), Dorms (each room has a light, desk, closet and bunk bed), School building with 35 classrooms, a recreational room, club rooms, an empty library, a cafe run by students for students (in case there are no students, a teacher will run the cafe), teachers lounge, studying room, a school yard and a sports field where the grass is 6 feet high.
Uniforms: Summer: Male: A white short sleeve shirt, dark blue pants, good shoes and optional beige school jacket.

Winter: Male: Long sleeve white shirt with dark blue tie, dark blue pants, good shoes and the beige school jacket.
Female: Dark blue or black turtleneck or white victorian (high collar) blouse, beige school serafuku, dark blue skirt, dark blue thigh highs and black shoes.
Fridays and weekends is free choice clothing.

On a bumpy road that went over many steep hills and though a seemingly empty town with old victorian style buildings was a large building that was colored gray and looked abandoned. It was Taiko Academy. An alarm clock went off and Kokoro woke up on her mat in her office. She didnt have her own apartment, so she lived at the academy. Kokoro walked to the shower and washed herself. Afterwards she got dressed. She put black thigh highs, a short black pleated skirt, a white shirt and a red tie on. She wore a black choker with a black lace trim around her neck. Kokoro slipped her black shoes on and went out the door almost forgetting her black reefer coat that had two rows of copper buttons. It was a cool spring morning and Kokoro began to wait for the new students. She snapped her fingers and a flame lit up. She then lit her cigarette. The bus with the first load of students was coming down the hill. Kokoro thought it might be fun to scare the students a bit before they come in. She spun around, summoning a black hooded cloak. She then went inside.
The bus stopped in front of the building and teenagers came out of the bus. They looked confused. Then Kokoro stepped out. She walked slowly towards them and whispered: "Hello."

Cynzia Larizzu, a brand new freshman fresh out of middle school, was on the bus. She sat timidly by herself as they approached their destination, the din of the other students' yelling and cheering echoing in her ears. When she followed the other students off the bus she was the first to let out a shriek upon the odd sight of their new teacher.

The students were obviously afraid of Kokoro in her disguise. "Welcome to Taiko Academy." Kokoro whispered with a soft but creepy voice. Then she took her cloak off and yelled: "Tada. Welcome to Taiko Academy! I am Kokoro Shironata! I am also known as Headmaster Shironata and I am the literature and arts teacher. I know the school isnt what you have expected but it is improving. Taiko Academy used to be a school for rich teens until it burned down and over a hundred souls were lost in the fire. It is also built on a samurai burial ground." Then a boy looked like he was going to cry and said: "I want to go home. This place is scary and the teachers already seem wierd." "No one is going anywhere..." Kokoro said with an evil smile on her face which then turned friendly again: "...without eating some cake. You dont have to go home. Even though the academy isnt in good shape, the diploma you get allows you to go to Tokyo University. This school still offers the best education in northern Japan. Most of the teachers here are former academy students. I was the best of my year seven years ago." The student then seemed to imagine Kokoro as a beautiful version of the witch in Hansel and Gretel, offering her sweets to lure kids into her house so she could eat them. Some students still felt uncomfortable.
