*Chemistry*

"Now students," announced Mr. Banner. "This final test will cover everything we've gone over in class, so if you've been paying attention-" he glanced over at Joey, who was playing with some rubber bands. "Any amount of attention at all, this test should be easy."

Joey stopped fooling around and looked up.

"Huh? Did you say something?" he asked.

Mr. Banner let out a long sigh and began passing out papers. All of the students immediately began working—except Joey, who was glancing at the papers in terror and biting his nails.

"Remember class, you only have until the end of the period," Mr. Banner reminded.

'Alright, calm down. I can do this,' Joey thought. 'All I gotta do is remember what I learned.'

Joey squeezed his eyes shut and attempted to have a flashback. Unfortunately, no flashback came.

'Darn!' Joey thought as his eyes shot back open. 'I didn't learn a thing! Well, looks like I'm just gonna have to cheat.'

With a grin on his face, Joey leaned in towards his sister, who was already halfway done with her test.

"Hey sis, you mind helping me out a little?" Joey whispered.

"Joseph, I sincerely hope you are not trying to copy answers off your sister," Mr. Banner stated.

A bead of sweat dropped down the young blond's face.

"Uh, no, not at all," he lied.

"Good."

Joey let out a groan while Mr. Banner went back to reading. Suddenly there was a loud knock on the door. Mr. Banner raised a brow and closed his book. After Mr. Banner made his way to the door and opened it, Joey's eyes fell upon the front desk. The young man's eyes widened as he realized that the answer chart was in plain sight.

His heart began to pace. He looked back over at the doorway and saw that Mr. Banner was engaged in a conversation with Gozaburo. Biting down on his lip, Joey decided to do the unthinkable: steal the answer sheet.

As quickly and quietly as he could, Joey raced towards the front desk. After making a glance around the room to ensure he wasn't being watched by his teacher or the other students, he grabbed the paper and ran back to his desk. No sooner after that, Mr. Banner wrapped up his conversation and reseated himself. Fortunately for Joey, he paid no mind to his belongings and went back to reading.

Joey finished jotting down the answers and cracked a triumphant grin.

'Heh, let's see who's stupid now!' he thought.

*Home Ec*

For their final, the students of Home Economics were given the task to bake a dessert; and not just any dessert, but a true test of their skills. They were to make a soufflé.

The students had paired up (due to the lack of ovens) and most had already placed their dishes in the oven. As the clock ticked on and time ran thin, Mokuba and Miho eagerly stood outside their ovens with mitts placed on their hands. After a minute that felt like an eternity, their timer went off.

"Alright," Mokuba said, very calmly and softly. "Now, we have to take it out very carefully and not make any sudden-"

The door to the room opened very quickly, causing the knob to slam against the concrete wall. As the loud 'thud' filled the room the students screamed and opened their ovens. Mokuba looked down at his dish and cringed.

"No!" he cried, staring down at the lump of collapsed dough. "No, no, no!"

The teacher, Mrs. Gina, had a horrified look on her face as she looked at the condition of the other desserts. She gritted her teeth and faced the doorway.

"What is the meaning of this!?" she demanded.

As Mokuba continued to flip out over his ruined dessert, he heard a familiar male voice.

"Sorry, but, I'm new and was told to come here for class."

A gasp escaped him as the voice registered in his brain.

"C-Could it be?" he wondered.

Mokuba looked towards the doorway. Sure enough, a small green haired boy stood there with a textbook in his hands. The boy's eyes drifted past the teacher and locked with Mokuba's.

"Mokuba!" he gasped.

"Noah!" Mokuba cried.

*Health*

The bell had rung, signaling the end of first period. Students soon flooded the room for health class and were greeted by the sight of a CPR dummy on the teacher's desk. The teacher, a young blonde woman, adjusted her glasses and waited for the last student to arrive. When they did, she cleared her throat and began speaking.

"For your final you're each going to perform CPR so you can earn an A and get certified in safety. Now, look at the victim. He's unconscious and not breathing. What do we do?"

A chill and dark shadow suddenly swept throughout the room. Not long after that, Yami Marik let out a soft cackle and stepped forward.

"Well, first of all we need to check to see if there's a blockage," he said.

The students scratched their heads at their classmate's unusual demeanor and appearance. The teacher, however, remained oblivious.

"Very good, Mr. Ishtar! Now, come demonstrate."

The yami chuckled again and pulled out his Millennium Rod, only this time he took the cap off the end—revealing a long dagger. He let out a battle cry and plunged the blade into the throat of the mannequin, causing the teacher to jump back and scream. The other kids stared in horror as they watched Yami Marik continue to slash at the doll until the head was completely severed from the torso. He chuckled as the head rolled onto the floor.

"Well, I've cleared the airway," he stated.

"That doll was over two thousand dollars!" the teacher screamed.

"Oh what, like you guys haven't been using it for the last fifteen years?" he challenged.

"That…that's beside the point! Also knives aren't allowed at school…well, unless you're in biology."

"Then it looks like I need to go find myself the biology room," said Yami Marik, who proceeded to stick his tongue out and wag it around.

With that he turned and attempted to leave, but was stopped by the teacher's yells.

"Mr. Ishtar, you aren't going anywhere until you clean up this mess!"

"Oh, I'm sorry. How careless of me."

Yami Marik held up his Millennium Rod. The students ducked under their desks for cover as the item started to glow. A beam of light surrounded the mannequin, as well as the teacher, and in an instant both of them vanished into thin air. The yami cackled again and left the room.

"So, what do we do now?" Rex Raptor asked the other students.

*History*

"Alright students," said Professor Hawkins. "Since we had our final yesterday, today we're going on a small field trip!"

The students cheered at this news.

"Now then," he continued. "Follow me, everyone."

The students eagerly stood up and formed a line. As the professor grabbed a briefcase, several of the kids started to talk.

"How fun!" Miho cheered. "Miho's glad Professor Hawkins decided to start teaching here."

"Me too," Tea agreed. "Now I get a chance to relax until the baby gets hungry."

Miho looked down at Tea's arms and saw what she was talking about. Her eyes widened as she realized that her friend was holding the same doll that she herself had gotten two years earlier.

"Seto Junior!" Miho cooed. "Miho thought she'd never see you again!"

Tea cringed.

"I'm not gonna name him after Kaiba," she stated. "Even if he is technically the father."

Miho gasped at this.

"Yeah, Kaiba and I got paired up for this test," Tea elaborated. "We agreed to alternate between periods, so I'm going to try and meet up with Kaiba in the halls so he can have him next period."

Miho continued to stare at Tea, as if the words were too slow to register to her brain.

"You're...with Kaiba? And you got…Seto Junior?" Miho managed to get out.

"Yeah," Tea said with a sigh. "Just for today."

Just then the doll started to cry. Tea pulled out a bottle and began to feed it, causing the cries to stop. Miho, meanwhile, narrowed her eyes at Tea and scowled.

'Who does Tea think she is, stealing Mr. Kaiba and Seto Junior?' Miho thought. 'Miho's going to get her out of the way, and have them both to myself!'

*P.E*

"Alright class, today's the last day, which means Johnny Steps is going to push you to the limit!"

The tall, dreadlocked man stood before a group of about twenty students—among them being Joey, Yugi, and Kaiba. They, along with the others, let out very audible groans. Johnny Steps ignored this and continued.

"I know you're not used to Johnny Step's methods, but since Johnny Steps is filling in today you're just going to have to deal with it!"

"Johnny Steps? Seriously?" asked Joey.

Kaiba let out a snort and crossed his arms.

"This school's really scraping at the bottom of the barrel," he grumbled.

"Now then, for your final you're all going to use this!"

Johnny Steps approached something large and covered with a blanket. He grabbed the sheets by the ends and yanked them away, revealing a Dance-Dance Revolution machine. Most of the students' frowns turned into smiles—except for Kaiba, whose scowl deepened.

"This school can afford a Dance machine, but not nuggets made from real meat?" Kaiba remarked.

"Hey, they're eighty-percent meat!" Joey snapped. "Anyway, this test should be easy—just like my chemistry test!"

Yugi and Kaiba exchanged looks.

"The chemistry test was easy?" asked Yugi.

"It sure was—thanks to this!"

Joey pulled out the stolen answer sheet from his pocket and held it up for them to see. Yugi's eyes widened in appall while Kaiba shook his head.

"So you cheated—go figure," he grumbled.

"Joey, you stole the answer sheet!?" Yugi asked with a squeak.

"Borrowed," Joey said with a grin. "Speaking of which, I need to return this to Banner's desk before he—what da hell?"

He'd caught sight of something written on the back. Looking for closely, he could see that it was unrelated to the test. In fact, it was a list of names of all the students, with some lines connecting them.

"What's wrong?" asked Yugi.

Joey handed the paper to his friend. As Yugi looked over it, Kaiba peered over his shoulder and examined it as well.

"Why is there a line connecting my name with Gardner's?" Kaiba questioned.

"I don't know," Joey answered. "But there's a line connecting my name with some girl I sit beside of. And look here: Yugi's name is connected to Marik's. Don't you sit beside him in class?"

"Yeah, and now that you mention it, doesn't Tea sit next to Kaiba?"

"Yes, she does," Kaiba answered. "This looks like a seating schedule."

"Some seating schedule!" Joey exclaimed. "Look what's written at da bottom!"

Yugi and Kaiba looked closer. Written at the very bottom in small words was the phrase 'student matching'.

"Student matching?" Yugi asked. "Do you think that could mean…"

"Oh God!" Kaiba exclaimed, the realization hitting him. "He's trying to pair up his students!"

"WHAT!?" Yugi yelled.

"You mean…he's shipping us!?" Joey cried.

"That's exactly what I mean!" Kaiba exclaimed. "He's trying to pair me up with…with…"

Suddenly Kaiba started to gag. Without another word, he ran to a nearby corner and began to throw up. Yugi grimaced and clutched onto his stomach.

"So Mr. Banner's trying to pair me up with Marik?" he asked weakly.

"It seems like it," Joey answered. His eyes widened as another revelation hit him. "Yug, what if Banner's not da only teacher doing this? What if da whole school's in on it!?"

"I don't know Joey," Yugi said with a frown, "but it looks like this is another mystery that needs to be solved."

*Back in History*

Professor Hawkins had taken his students to an empty field just down the street from the school. The field contained various men wearing either gray or blue uniforms, holding muskets, and waving flags. The kids stood by the fence and watched while their teacher began talking.

"This, my pupils, is a reenactment of the Battle of Gettysburg. It was-"

"Um, excuse me," Tea interrupted, raising her hand. "Why are we going to an American Civil War reenactment? Why does our country even have one, anyway?"

"…does anyone else have a question?" asked Professor Hawkins.

While the other students started to raise their hands, Miho narrowed her eyes at Tea. She then took the lid off her drink and poured the contents onto the ground, which was mostly ice. Miho chuckled softly.

"Tea has no idea what Miho has in store for her," she thought. "Once she steps on the ice she will slip, and then she will have to go to the hospital and in the chaos I will grab Seto Jr. and then win Mr. Kaiba's heart!"

"Alright students," Professor Hawkins spoke up, snapping Miho out of her thoughts. "Let's move forward."

As the group moved closer to the field, Miho watched Tea and the pile of ice. Her grin widened as Tea's foot went on top of the frozen cubes. Unfortunately for Miho, the ice merely shattered under Tea's weight. Tea raised a brow while Miho scowled.

"Geez, people need to watch where they pour their stuff," Tea remarked.

"Darn she's crafty!" Miho thought. "No matter, Miho will just step up her game!"

A/N: Even though I ship Kaiba x Tea, I don't think Kaiba would be very happy about someone trying to set them up (or trying to set him up with anyone, for that matter). Let me know what you thought about this chapter and the story so far.
