"Yes, sir," she said, her voice crisp.
"I want you to take a step back, Tabitha. Reflect on what you're doing, and how it's impacting those around you. I'm willing to work with you to find more constructive ways to channel your energy, but I will not tolerate any further... incidents."
The Headmaster nodded, a small, stern smile playing on his lips.
Tabitha's jaw clenched, but she remained silent, awaiting the Headmaster's reprimand.
"I must say, I appreciate your dedication to the school's values," the Headmaster continued, "but your methods are not exactly... sanctioned. I've had complaints from students who feel intimidated, even threatened, by your actions."
"Be careful, Tabitha. You're not the only one watching. And not everyone is as... benevolent as I am."
