[center][h3]- Vice Principal Nina Smith -[/h3][/center]

[i]"Whaaad aru yauw nexut orrers, Nee-nuh?"[/i] Deia spoke again, and Nina felt another twinge of pity inside of herself.

Despite the girl complying with Nina's wishes not to call her 'Master', Deia obviously still associated the vice principal with the meaning of the word, and Nina wasn't sure how she was supposed change this. She suddenly wished she had asked Deia's 'escorts' more questions before they left as she felt, for the first time in a long time, completely unprepared with how to deal with this. 

How did one deal with a child who had never been allowed to act as one?

Before she could figure out how to answer Deia's question, as well as her own, fellow teacher Gabriel Donovan approached.

[b]"Is it true that there was a fight on the train?"[/b] he asked.

Nina stood up to her full height, somewhat happy to have a distraction from this problem for a moment "Yes, there was, though if you want more information, you'll have to ask Meredith about it," she said. "She knows more about it than I do."

She then looked back at Deia, wondering what was the best way to respond to her. In truth, she had no orders to give to the girl and was tempted just to tell her to relax for a little. However, remembering what she had read on Deia's file, she doubted the esper even [i]knew[/i] the meaning of the word.

"Just..." Nina began, looking at Deia. "Just wait for a little while, okay? Once everyone has picked a room, we'll be heading to the dining hall and we'll be eating..." And then something else occurred to her. With Deia currently bound in her wheelchair, would Nina have to feed her, the same way a mother had to feed a baby? Nina herself didn't mind, but she couldn't help but feel that it was a little humiliating for the girl. However, after a second, she remembered Nina had telekinesis and could probably feel herself... but weren't her restraints supposed to block her powers, at least to some extent? "Erm, though I do have a question," Nina started. "Those, err, restraints are meant to weaken your powers. To what extent are you still able to use them?"
