Kuro's eyes gleamed for a moment initially showing that he was proud of Albert and glad to see that he was doing well. [color=f7941d]"Oh come on there's no need to hide from sensei! You're a grown man now you can talk shop with your sensei! I could tell you some diff-"[/color] Kurosaki's line of what was bound to be some vulgar pun that he enjoyed to spring on people stopped mid sentence as he bit his bottom lip as his eyes widened in shock. His hands tensed up and he didn't speak for a moment before he grabbed Albert by the hand as he looked him dead in the eye the rarely seen dead serious part of the man coming through. [color=f7941d]"Albert think before you act! The lessons I taught you all in the clocktower should've been enough to get through to you that you need to be more cautious. If I was an enemy, or scouting for one you'd have just given away your position...as it stands..."[/color] Kuro said after a moment of hesitation as he breathed outwardly in exasperation, 

[color=f7941d]"I am still your teacher and I will protect you as best I can. I promise you. Your secret is safe with me. I swear on my pride as an educator of young minds. I know you probably don't care about me but I do deeply for you even if you have moved on from being my pupil. I won't say anything about your choice on joining the war....only that I would've counciled against it and that this is a very risky conflict. People on bars far higher than me are going to be out for your life. Though I'm sure you already know this and have thought it through thoroughly."[/color] Kuro-Sensei said as he squeezed Albert's hand firmly but not unlike a way a father would do for his son. Kuro deeply cared for all of his students, past, present, and possibly future. He would not betray his words to Albert. 

[color=f7941d]"Just know...that whatever that comes ahead I am still your mentor, teacher, or whatever you want to call me. I also hope you still consider me a friend. I...can't help you too much in this but my advice, and wisdom are yours if you need it. Just not my body. I'm not cut out for wars like this I can't fight like I use to, and I'm certainly not interested in a monkey's paw like the Grail Wars. Just promise me this....that you won't lose who [i]you[/i] are in all of this and become something darker. No teacher should need to watch their student walk into harm's way but I trust that you'll be safe."[/color] Kuro said as he mustered a reassuring smile to his face in an attempt to show that he did still care for Albert as a person.
