She smiles brightly. "It is good we are not standing on Ceremony Ichiro-Chan." She winks at the girl. "Then tomorrow you and I shall enjoy a lovely lunch." She clasps her hands together excited. "Then my dear Ichiro-Chan it is a date. I shall take you to the finest dining experience this town has to offer." She smiles at the girl and nods her head. "And remember if you need me for anything don't hesitate to text or call me. I will offer you any and all aid you require." She smiles and gives the girl a deep bow. "It has truly been a wonderful thing to meet with you Ichiro-Chan."

"And you Otomo-sama. A fortuitous meeting to be sure" Blushing, she leaves the dojo with as much dignity as she can muster, bowing to the others before she goes.
[Priya exits]

Otomo Katsumi grins as she watches Ichiro Priya leave. Yes I think this may have been worthwhile after all. She looks to the remaining members of the Dojo. She bows. "Well now I have had a good deal of fun but I have businesselsewhere. If you will excuse me." She smiles at Hida Kumataro. "Hida-San a pleasure as always*
With that Otomo Katsumi makes her leave.

The Crane was left blinking in the aftermath of the exchange between the Badger and Imperial. Isao watched the student and teacher leave before he just looked at the Hida, dumbfounded. Dazed and confused, Isao just stood up, rubbed the back of his head, and looked to the remaining students. Honestly, Isao just didn't know what to say.

Suzaku returned to a neutral stance after a while again. He turned to Isao's inquiring eyes. "That... certainly was something" he said smiling and blushing and following the Ichiro somewhat with a nod. Sweat had begun to develop on his kimono from long stance work and his standing meditation.

Kumataro turned to Isao and nodded approvingly.
"As for you, you did the right thing in stopping the fight. I know too many people who would have kept going."
Kumataro bowed slightly.
"What's your name, son? I'm Hida Kumataro."

"Kakita Isao! First year," Isao chirped, his smile broad and easy as he acknowledged Kumataro with a bow. Hida Kumataro? Why does that name sound familiar? "If I may ask, Hida-sensei, what do you teach here?"He was glad that his decision to concede the fight was seen as a good move. Isao didn't want to get into trouble and hurt anyone. He'd have to recommend they spar with shinai on their next match and with bogu - bokken was good for training, but he never felt it was best between people who didn't know one another. Like Priya, however, he wasn't about to back down. The white oak bokken was put away in his martial arts bag, along with his shinai, iaito, and bogu gear for proper kendo sparring.

Tetsuko stands, patting the backside of her dojo-pants free of dust (as if the spotless floor actually had any). She returns to her previous position on the floor, and as she enters her stances she calls out to the others in the hall.
"Just let me know if anyone else wants a match. I've got another in me, I think." She says with a grin.

The young Crane settled his hands on his hips and looked REAL hard at the Hida. I swear, I've seen him before! After squinting through his glasses, he finally mustered the courage to ask, "Hida-sensei, do I know you from somewhere? Your name... And, well, you. It's familiar but I just can't put a finger on it!" Isao glanced to Doji Tetsuko, whom he said, "I'll spar with you if you'll have me! Just one moment!"
