Kurumi had been sitting by the duck pond reading her Care of Magical Creatures textbook cover to cover for the fifth time in preparation for her OWL when she heard some raised voices and she grumbled in annoyance. Yes, she wasn't in the library and therefore there was bound to be distractions, but she didn't want to be inside. She had discovered a new love for autumn and wanted to enjoy it before it turned to winter.

Slamming her book shut and shoving it in her bag, Kurumi marched over to the noise and her eyes narrowed further. Adam Burn had once again managed to annoy her. Couldn't he just ONCE move in the positive direction? She was about to ask him to lower his voice when she noticed Daichi was there as well. Tayla was with them, but Daichi was the one her eyes fell on the longest.

No Mr. Duckles all term...and now Daichi was at the duck pond clearly trying to capture a duck. Slowly, she walked over to Adam and put a hand on his shoulder. "Adam, let me handle this, I know these two really well." Not to mention she was pretty sure she understood WHY Daichi was doing what he did.

"Okay Daichi, if you weren't stealing then what were you doing? Be honest. Does this have anything to do with a certain missing stuffed animal?" Because, if he was, Kurumi might be able to figure out something where he didn't get into too much trouble. Not to mention there might be chocolate involved too. She had a soft spot for the boy after all.
