Principal:
I've allowed that color, but I don't remember saying you could have long hair. Have it cut by tomorrow.

Ayame:
But Principal...

Principal:
No! Rules are made to be followed. I'll call the head of your family...

Ayame:
I... I come from a royal family.

Principal:
Huh?

Ayame:
I've been hiding it until now, but there's a country to which I must return.

Principal:
Wh-what?

Ayame:
If you must know, my hair has to be long because... it is said that the first king, the honorable Rurubara-sama, received a message when he reached the age of four. It was from Kandora-sama, who illumines the four directions with gold and red light. When Kandora-sama chanted "Ma Rudu Mani," his forehead shone with a blue light and, like a pony struck by a whip, Rurubara-sama's honorable person was liberated. With a wave of warm compassion, like trees that bend in a light breeze, his supple tresses grew... Now, meanwhile, Kashiparuu-sama was in his chambers sleeping peacefully, like a flower waiting to bud, and he gave voice to the pain that was in his heart, "Kampaniiru...!!" "Kampaniiru", in the tongue of my people, means, "Come forth, ocean of God's power; go forth, veneration!"

Principal:
Uh, errr, um, just - I'm sorry, but I have to go meet with some-

Ayame:
[grabs the principal's shoulder] I'm not done explaining about Kandora-sama.

Principal:
THAT'S OKAY!! YOU CAN HAVE LONG HAIR!!!
