Yay! I finally put my A/U at the top! XP Because Rikkai and Hyoutei have their own, so why not Seigaku? Also has interference with other schools later on. This chapter has a saner Fuji, but it shall not stay that way.
50 Things I Am Not Allowed To Do At Seigaku:
Number 1: I will not pair up with Eiji for a Goldberg Machine
"COOOL! We're partners, Fujiko!" Eiji yelled in delight. Fortunately, it was lunch break, so no one would mind if he yells that loud, as long as he does not yell louder.
"Well, you were the one I knew the most." The genius replied. "So, any ideas for steps? I already made a couple." He then showed him a diagram. "Do you want to do the water generated one!"
"Then... how about we have something make the water form waves, so a toy boat on it can move and push anything that shall lead us to the next step?"
"Good idea, but what should we use?"
"How about... I know! A remote-controlled toy car!"
"Saa, what does most car remotes look like?"
"I saw one that has the big red button of DOOM!"
"...The big red button of doom?"
"Not, doom. DOOM!"
"The difference is on how you say it?"
"Exactly!"
"I see, but that's a bit hard..."
"We could push it!"
"We can't do human intervention, Eiji."
"We could sneakily push it!"
"It's still human intervention."
"No. It's sneaky human intervention, and because of that, there's a chance that the teacher wouldn't notice!"
"It's still cheating..." It was his genius reputation at stake. Come on, since when did a genius cheat?
"But they won't notice!"
"..."
"...Atobe is old." Eiji said randomly.
"You got that from Gakuto-kun?"
"NO WAY!!" Eiji exclaimed like he was insulted."ME AND GAKUTO,ALIKE!?!?"
"I'm sorry, Eiji... I didn't mean to..."
"Yay! Thanks, Fujiko!" Eiji said, reverting back to his happy mode and proceeded to glomp Fuji.
"...Um, Eiji, the Goldberg Machine..."
"Ooops, sorry!" The genius was then let go.
"Eiji, why are you using exclamation points at every end of each sentence?"
"Because I feel so hyper and happy today?"
"..." Fuji just smiled.
"I knew it. There was an 87 chance that you'll choose Fuji as your partner." Inui popped out of nowhere, causing Eiji, but not Fuji, to jump.
"How's your day, Inui?" Fuji greeted.
"Oh, very fine."
"Inui, why are we given that Goldberg Machine project in 3rd year?" Eiji asked, finally NOT using exclamation points.
"Elaborate, Eiji."
"I mean, didn't we already do this in 1st year?! Why are we doing it again!?"
"We were given a short time." Fuji reasoned out.
"But it's torture! Last time I did it with Oishi, and it ended up as a disaster!"
A few meters away, the fukubuchou sneezed.
"So anyway!" Eiji exclaimed. "Goldberg Machines are BAD for your health!"
"You are acting like Gakuto-kun." Fuji said.
"I AM NOT!"
"You are."
"I'M NOT!"
"You are."
"I'M NOT!"
"You are."
"I'M NOT!!!"
"Are you sure, Eiji?" At this point, Fuji opened his eyes, not glaring at his classmate.
"U-Uh... Not really... Eheheheh." Eiji replied. No one, not even Tezuka, could resist Fuji's Sadistic Glare of DOOM.
"So..." Inui started. "What's your plan for the Goldberg Machine."
"I DON'T KNOOOOW!" Eiji complained. "Fujiko, can't you just finish it on your own?!"
"It's supposed to be a pair work..."
"PLEASEEEE!!!!"
Fuji sighed, before smiling sadistically. "Alright, but on one condition."
Eiji gulped. "And that is?"
"Inui, I found you an assistant."
Eiji shivered as the other sadist drew out what looked like Inui Juice. "Bottoms up, Eiji."
Minutes later, a louder yell was heard throughout Seigaku.
"...A-At least I don't need to do the Goldberg Machine of DOOM again..." Eiji muttered, hours later. He just came from the clinic and was now walking for club practice. However, the juice somehow made him walk slower, thus he was late. Of course, Tezuka could not overlook this.
"Kikumaru, run 50 laps."
"WHAT!?!?"
"60 laps."
Eiji sighed. The captain's word was ALWAYS law, so he had to run the laps. As he was suffering and wailing about human rights violations and abuse of his physical body (causing Tezuka to assign him 20 more laps), Inui called in his phone.
"Kyouju."
"Ah, Hakase." Renji replied from the other line.
"Do you have any data to trade with?"
"I believe I do. Is Seigaku starting to be more interesting?"
"Yes." Inui smirked. "Yes it is."
