Welcome to Gaia! ::

Riley's Sorry registered but that was about all that got through Mandy's stupefaction at the violation that had once again occurred, that is until Nurse Cricket entered in her shinnying fury.

The perfect distraction from her embarrassment, and as she came out of her state she noticed that really nobody had noticed what had happened anyway.

So putting it out of her mind Mandy paid attention to the teacher and whatever had her raging, and Mandy could swear whatever it was she hadn't done it, she'd barley even entered the roo-

HOLY JACK DID SHE JUST EAT ONE OF THE OTHER STUDENTS!?!

Suddenly finding out what had happened became top priority as Mandy slunk to a desk, the only thing she'd learnt is do not piss off Nurse Cricket.

Thankfully prudent eavesdropping informed her someone had eaten one of the bugs. Note to self: Treat all bugs like royalty.

Sammy was late, very late, or was she just on time? The only thing she saw from the door to the room was Cricket standing before a student and suddenly the student was in her mouth and gone before her brain could properly sum up what in Jack's name just happened.

"Jack-damn you have got to be fracking kidding me."

She continued to stare jaw slightly agape, this was not normal, this had to be against some kind of regulation right? Oh look Siddie was here.

The other student was still missing.

She should probably leave. Why was she sitting beside Siddie?

WHY IS THERE A PUMPKIN ON SIDDIE'S DESK!?

At once Sammy scooted her chair back away from the desk, somewhere after the whole 'Cricket ate a student' she neglected to notice the ghoul whom she usually let crash at her dorm was holding THE ONE THING NO COUPLE AT THIS AGE SHOULD BE NEAR.

Crickets class had officaly earned a title: The Most Dangerous Non-Field Trip Related Activity You Can Possibly End Up In.

"WhydoyouhaveapumpkinonyourdeskSiddiejackdammitgetitaway!"

Siddie registered Sammy's presence just as her ghoulfriend scooted back away from the desk in panic. She stayd scooted down in her chair, still not wanting to draw Cricket's attention. "Shhhhh," she hissed. "It's just one of those like last time. You had one too."

...

That had been out loud. And too loud. "Sammy!" Siddie squeaked, turning bright purple and sinking down even further in her chair.

Danny had waltzed over to Roch and remained pretty silent the entire time. She was actually lost in thought think about the pretty dress she was going to wear to prom.

Cricket had certainly gotten her attention though. Danny gasped, and sort of took a step back when she saw Cricket's monsterous mouth just open up and devour a boil like that. Was this seriously their teacher? Danny didn't know if she wanted to be in sex ed anymore. Well no, she didn't want to be there in the first place, she had been forced by her parents, but now her desire was lessened even more. Danny hadn't exactly expected her first class to start like this.

Somehow though, it was pretty damn cool. She was scared, but at the same time felt pretty invigorated from the whole experience. Glancing over at Roch, she said, "R-roch is this for real? He's gonna come out right? Oh I bet it's like an act right?"

Now what have we learned?. The teacher's voice echoed in the silence of everyone's astonishment.

Wait, so ... it wasn't just an act or a joke? She had really just eaten him? Danny looked over at Roch again and whispered, "Is this ... part of sex ed?"

What had Riley learned from that?

Her heart raced in excitement, just as Cricket's jaw unhinged, and it was hard for her to stay in her seat when she saw the professor consume Bul. Now, she liked Bul. She really did. But she did not like him enough to be upset about his sudden demise in light of just how awesome this event was.

Riley rose her hand up, the picture of an excited, proper student, and whispered out her answer.

I learned that Nurse Cricket is the best teacher ever. She breathed out in awe. She was in love.

"..Really?" Astra turned to lizzy looking a little embarrassed about her rather..large miscalculation. "Well, I guess I misunderstood that one..sorry about that" Lizzy was right though, she would still call it her 'little scareling' because as far as she was concerned, the fairy was kinda like hers. Or maybe she could think of it as a baby sister. She smilied at lizzy. "Thankyou for correcting me though! I'll tell you right away when I have a good name for her"

However Jericho had joined in, and she opted to just sink into her seat trying to hider her her burning face under her hat until she realized said scareling had wandered off...right into Riley

"Ah, come back!" Astra quickly flew to rileys table, scooping up the little rascal and putting her underneath her hat so she wouldn't' cause anymore strife, and went back to her seat, trying to see if her hat would fit over her face.

When the screeching had started again, Asra had thought Riley was freaking out again but this time realize it sounded different. It wasn't directly in her head, it was below her. Thankfully her feet never really touched the floor when she was sitting at a desk, and she was quick to stand ontop of hers as the bugs began to swam looking very pissed off.

But this...was nothing....compared to what happened next

Did...the teacher...


...just...

WARNING! WARNING! SYSTEM FAILURE IMMINENT! REPEAT! SYSTEM FAILURE IMMINENT

The fairy stood there on the desk with a blank expression, staring at the teacher for a few seconds. She had fully intended to answer her question (fortheloveofjackdon'ttouchthebugs) but instead of answering she fell off her desk in a dead faint.

...Yeah. Jericho looked much less scarier now.
