Another day meant another class. By now probably all of his students were bored out of their minds, since Golbez had never assigned anything more than "Read your textbooks" -- although on the other hand, if they wanted to spend the class period passing notes or doodling, he didn't care.

Monday of Round Three, however, was a little different. Rather than the Conquest school uniform he'd been assigned, Golbez stood behind the desk at the front of the class in the cloak, skirt, and Lunarian jewelry he'd arrived in Rakuen wearing; on the whiteboard behind himself, he'd simply scrawled the word Stars. He was a bit on edge; what he was about to spend the class period doing was surely against the rules. He wasn't concerned about being punished, though -- rather, he was worried that any students who went along with the discussion might be in trouble. But he was tired of playing along with this charade.

Once the class was settled, he began to speak. "It is said that to defeat the ones holding us prisoner, we need to obtain 'the stars' -- six of them, probably. I'm fairly sure that the term does not refer to distant, giant balls of plasma. Which raises the question: To what does it refer?"

He looked out at the class, eyes narrowed. "Any suggestions?"

"This entire city is set up for the fighting, right?" Kevin pointed out immediately, feeling relieved that they were finally getting this out into the open. "Maybe it's got something to do with the game."

Suzaku raised his hand to be polite, even though Golbez didn't seem a strict teacher... He took in his lack of uniform, at all.

"When I drew Lelouch's weapon last week a star appeared."

Guess who is here to break up this little party. Santana would have been willing to overlook his breaking the dress code if that was his only infraction, but to try and strategize during class time was something that she wasn't allowed to over look. So, Santana stood, "Hey, teach, for one, this isn't fashion class, you can't just wear whatever you want and I'm gonna hafta reprimand you for that, but you're going to wish that's the only thing wrong with what you're doing."

She crosses her arms and starts walking towards him, "You can't teach about these stars, even if astronomy is a nice cover for it. You can't plot some attack during class time, you need to teach your stupid class. But since you've decided against that, you have to pay the price."
