Harupia walked calmly as the two rather strongly built guards escorted him through the halls. He had visited the Toranao dojo's a few times in the past, though not this branch specifically Oushi-Ouja branch. He had a good relationship with Kuro himself, but with how robust the clan was he couldn't meet everyone, much to his chagrin. It seemed fate had a plan to patch up that oversight.
It all started rather mundanely. He was summoned by the headmaster oft he academy. Someone he had a... peculiar relationship with. Mostly causing the older women a bunch of headaches. The one time where he was chasing a student in the middle of the night nearly cost him his head... But for every foible, he tried 10 fold to do his classes right, and for the most part, it seemed to be working well. Still, usually her summoning him meant some form of headache for the Sunaku.
He knocked politely as he entered the office "Head-misters, you summoned me?" he asked with a polite bow. The older woman, slightly shorter than him, but still with a certain poise and hardiness to her frame replied "Mmm, Yes Harupia, glad you were swift about it. I would have an...unusal request. Something probably right up your alley". Harupia blinked as he said "Coming from you that makes me ever so slightly worried" causing her to laugh a bit as she said "Well, at least I get some payback for all the grey hairs you gave me... But to the point. The head of one of the Branches of the Torana Clan, the Oushi-Ouja to be exact, contacted us for...esentially tutoring. To be specific, they asked for our best instructor in order to teach their daughter."
She raised her hand to pause a question coming from his lips as she continued "The daughter, Suzume, had already passed through the academy. We checked that. But apparently she needs a refresher for...unspecified reasons". As she paused Harupia interjected "This almost feels more like a briefing then a favor...I imagine there weren't any further records of her advancing after graduating from the academy?" The women nodded as she said "Not really, it seems she somewhat... vanished after the graduation. Apparently she was somewhat sickly... And now she's back. I don't know what this is. Maybe they wanted her sheltered but now feel she needs to be up and about in the world, maybe something bad happened to her... My point is, while I certainly would NOT call you our best instructor" she said, earning a bit of a laugh from the Sunaku "You are dedicated, and you are quite stubborn, especially when it comes to helping problem kids. And knowing you, I bet your curious to find out more about this case by now, aren't ya?" she said with a slight smirk.
Well, they did know each other pretty well. He didn't think much about it. Soon later the needed communication was exchanged, and here he was, being escorted to the room. And now in front of the room, the door guarded by a man who's stature he could imagine very few people measuring up to...Kuro being one of them. He bowed Saying "Sunaku Harupia, I was sent here from the academy to provided mentorship to lady Suzume". The guards exchanged quick nods between each other as the mountain of a man stepped aside and opened the door. And so he entered, looking around the room
