Katiel looked to the door of the office. He paused. Took a moment to close his eyes and pray. There was a slight fluttering about him in this moment, as if a breeze only he could feel stirred his clothing and hair. There was a soft light from about his eyes, just about spilling out from the gap underneath his shades. It was a special request, and one he was reticent to make - but even so, he needed to. If he was to properly protect Kari now that his cover had been partially blown, he needed to walk into that office. After a few seconds of this, he opened his eyes again and the light and ephemeral wind subsided. He looked to Kari and smiled weakly.

[b]"No, no - I'll handle it myself. Thank you."[/b] Katiel nodded, then opened the door and stepped through to the other side. He carefully shut it again, and looked to the woman sitting at the administrator's desk on the other side. She looked at him oddly, but before she could ask why there was a strange man in her office, he began to speak in a cool, authoritative voice. A lick of fire could be seen dancing on his tongue with each word.

[b]"My name is Katiel. I am not on the records for this establishment, because I am not a student here. I would like you to enter me into the database anyway, as I would like to be a student here for the forseeable future. Place me in the same classes as a girl named Kari Lufton, and write me a letter of introduction to her teachers."[/b]

The woman looked at him for a moment, considering whether to call security. She eventually decided not to, and did as asked. Katiel let out a long, pained sigh of relief as he saw the woman's fingers clattering away quickly on her keyboard. The power of sovereign speech was rarely granted to those of his rank - and even when it was, if a mistake in the request was made, any cause for alarm given, the human will would simply disobey anyway. Even angels cannot dominate the will, though they might influence it. Eventually his letter of introduction was given, and he emerged into the hallway once more.

[b]"Alright."[/b] he said, looking at Kari. [b]"If you'd be so kind, please... lead the way."[/b]

He followed Kari, walking through the school's halls with a quiet discomfort. He found the presence of so many strangers intimidating... he never knew what to do around them. It didn't help that a few people were giving him odd looks, sniggering at his 'unique' hair and continued use of sunglasses indoors. One girl coughed 'Poser!' under her breath as he passed. There was a flash of rage as she said this, but it quickly subsided. He would need to work on controlling that, Katiel thought, if he was to remain undetected. Humans sin, and he could not punish them when they did - it was not his place, and it would only cause problems.

Eventually they reached the room.
