Experimental Classroom
~ Chapter 1 ~
"- we parted ways that day in April, never to see each other.."
Honey brown eyes, and snow white hair. Skin which could almost compare to her hair in color, and a smile which would set anyone at ease upon seeing it. She was so relaxed, she seemed to send a wave of warmth and comfort over the classroom. She was short and petite - like a doll. Her hair was tied up into a ponytail, She wore a light blue shirt with sleeves that reached to her elbows, which laced up in front, a thin black choker around her neck, a black pleated skirt and dark blue flat shoes. Her name was Moriko Suoh, and she was our new teacher.
From most everyone's perspective, she was like a mother. She fussed over each of us, giving us frozen fruit on sticks to eat, and encouraged us all to take it easy today and relax during class. Not exactly something any of our previous teachers would do.
She was nice. Maybe a bit too nice.
"Okajima-kun," she gently shook his shoulder, waking him from his sleep. "I know the lesson is boring, and you're tired, but please try to stay awake until the break."
The boy nodded, sitting up straight in a daze.
"Thank you," Sensei smiled at him before continuing to read from the textbook.
The lesson passed by, and by the end of it, I began to wonder just how this person managed to become a teacher at our school. I wasn't the only one.
"What's all this nonsense? There's no way that you qualify a teacher!" Terasaka spoke up, pointing accusingly at the teacher. "You're about our age, aren't you?!"
"I do qualify as a teacher, even though I am around your age, I have worked hard and advanced as high as I possibly can on my own in the education world." Suoh Sensei says calmly, walking towards him. "It is because of my extensive training that I have been permitted to teach you. Your previous teacher was deemed unqualified for the job at hand."
"What exactly is going on, Suoh-sensei?" our class representative Isogai asks. "What was with all of those tests the other day?"
"Listen carefully everyone. I'd rather not explain this twice." Sensei looks around at everyone, and we all are paying attention to her every word. "To put it in the simplest of terms: You are all human experiments for the government. The doctors who came here yesterday gave each of you some unique sorts of medicines and fused together your DNA with the DNA of certain types of animals based upon what they could observe of both your mental health and physical health. I was assigned to take care of you, to observe and take note of all the changes you have and guide you through the process."
I'm sure that everyone in the class had the same exact thought: there's so many things wrong with this.
