Chapter 80 – The Nonsensical Teacher

Sig's POV

"Hmm…I don't know. Maybe I should go check real quick."

"Sig, for the last time, quit worrying. Chu's going to be fine." Peruvis said to me.

"You say that, but it doesn't really make me feel any better."

"Look, I promise she'll be fine. Klug, Raina, and Marvett are in her class. So, if she needs anything she can ask them."

"Yeah, but…"

"And besides, I'm sure being in Special Ed won't stop her from making at least one new friend on her own. You just gotta give her a chance." Ayumi added.

"See? Ayumi agrees with me." Peruvis said.

"Well…" I still wasn't sure about this.

"Also…if anyone decides to mess with her, she can burn them to a crisp." Phoenix said as he popped out from Peruvis.

"She's not a fire-breathing dragon, Phoenix." I gained a sweatdrop.

"Just saying. I actually know a few demons that can breathe fire."

Peruvis and Ayumi then both turned to me with curious looks on their faces.

"I don't breathe fire. And neither does Chu."

"Aw…" They both whined.

"Why are you disappointed?!"

"Okay, class. Please take your seats."

"Oh, look. Teach is here. We'll talk later." Peruvis said.

"Sure thing." Ayumi said.

"Yeah, I guess." Was all I said.

The three of us went to sit at three empty desks near each other and gave our attention to our new teacher, who was a female. And I have to admit…at first glance, she looked really pretty.

Though there's no way in hell I can tell Peruvis that. She's never let me hear the end of it.

"Good morning class. Nice to meet you all. I'll be your homeroom teacher for the year." The woman said.

"Nice to meet you." We as a class said.

But now…the more I look at her, the more she started looking somewhat familiar to me. She had long pink hair that was somewhat curly at the end. And her facial features kept reminding me of someone. Someone I know really well.

"Psst! Sig!"

"Huh?"

"Y-You see too, right?" Peruvis whispered to me.

"Y-Yeah. I do. O-Our teacher…"

"Looks just like Raffina, I know! It's insane!"

"You think they're related or something?"

"I dunno. Probably."

This was something for us to think about later.

"Now I thought it'll be best to introduce ourselves one by one. And to break the ice a little, I'll go first." The Raffina look-a-like said before clearing her throat. "My name is Mrs. Fielding. But I like being called by my first name more. Which, by the way, is Sara."

Sara Fielding? The last name sounds familiar…what was Raffina's last name again?

"Now, let's start with this left side right here." Our teacher, who apparently wants us to call her Sara, said to us.

"Crap!" Not only did I say that, but I also heard Peruvis say it too. So I knew she was thinking the same thing.

"I hope you thought of something." I whispered to her.

"What?! Why me?!"

"You're the lying expert! I can't have everyone here know I'm a demon!"

"And I can't have everyone here know I'm a devil/tortured soul hybrid! So, I have my own problems!"

"Wow. Way to bail on me, Peruvis."

"I'm sorry, okay?! I didn't think our teacher would be this assertive!"

"Uh…hey, guys. We're next." Ayumi whispered to us.

"Damn!" We both said.

"And finally, you three in the corner." Sara said to us.

Neither of us wanted to be first. So we begged Ayumi to go before us. And she eventually gave in.

"My name is Ayumi Katabuki. Nice to meet you all." The entire class clapped for her as she sat back down.

"It's nice to meet you too, Ayumi. Now, who's next?" Sara asked us two.

"Ladies first." I said to Peruvis.

"Hmph. Who's bailing who at this point?"

"Well, you did it to me."

"Yeah, but…"

"My, My. You two seemed to be really good friends. Am I right…Sig Duranné and Peruvis Ryley?"

"Tch!" We both froze up from what we just heard.

"W-Wait a sec! H-How do you know our names?!" Peruvis asked.

"Well…I just had a hunch. I also have another one. The one where you're both…"

"WAIT, DON'T!" We both shouted at the same time while shooting up from our desks. The other classmates were staring at us and even giving out whispers.

"Wow. So in sync."

"You think they're dating?"

"They have to be, right?"

Great. Not even an hour in and we already have rumors about us.

E-Even though it's true.

"*giggle* Wow. What a performance. You two really do hit it off." Sara said to us.

"So sadistic…" We said to ourselves as we sat back down.

*INSERT CLASSIC SCHOOL BELL CHIME HERE*

"Oh, would you look at that. First break already. Okay, everyone. You've got 10 minutes of free time before we start our first lesson."

"Yes, teacher." The class said.

As everyone was doing their own thing, Peruvis and I were faced down on our desks wanting this day to end already.

"Wow. That was brutal." Ayumi said to us.

"I know. I've never dealt with anyone like that before." I said.

"Just who the hell is this woman?" Peruvis asked.

"Hey-o! Sig! Peruvis! Could you come with me to the hallway for a sec? You can come too if you want, Ayumi!" Sara yelled for us from across the room.

D-Did she just say…"Hey-o"?

"Our teacher is not normal…" All three of us said with huge sweatdrops.


When the three of us got into the hallway with Sara, she had us follow her to who knows where. We didn't know what she was going to do next. We only just met her and she's already proven to be unpredictable. And we're going to have to deal with it for 3 whole years.

Is it too late to transfer?

"Let's see…where could it be?" Sara said to herself.

"Uh…hey. M-Mrs. Fielding…" I started speaking.

"Oh please, Sig. Call me Sara."

"O-Okay, Sara. Where are we going?"

"Oh, I'm just looking for a special person of mine."

"And just who is this person?" Peruvis asked.

"*giggle* Oh, you'll see."

That does not sound good…

After walking some more, we ended up in front of one of the other classrooms for the 10th graders. Class A. Why Sara brought us here is still a mystery.

Once she opened the door as hard as she could…

"HEY-O! SWEETIE!"

"M-MOM?!"

"She has a CHILD?!" We all freaked out.

"Well, don't just stand there, you three. Come on in."

"W-W-WAIT! WAIT! WAIT! MOM! COME WITH ME!"

Then suddenly the thoughts from earlier came back to me. I said that Sara looked like someone…and I was starting to believe that I was right when the person I believed she looked like came out with her.

"Huh? Guys, what are you doing here?"

"R-Raffina…I-Is this…" I asked.

"*sigh* Yeah. Guys, this is Sara Fielding. My mother."

"Holy crap, I KNEW IT!" Peruvis shouted.

"Well done, Peruvis." Sara said. "If this were an actual assignment, I've would've given you an S."

"S?" The three of us asked.

"You know…S-Rank. It's the highest grade a teacher can give."

No, it's not!

"Mom! What are you doing here?!" Raffina asked.

"I work here."

"Okay, first of all, WHAT?! And second, that's not what I meant! I mean what are you doing here after missing 11 years of my life?!"

"Oh…you meant that. Well, I didn't do it on purpose. Your father and had to take care of somethings."

"And it took 11 years to do it?! What were you doing anyway?!"

"I forgot."

"Mom…" Raffina was getting angry.

"Oh, come on, sweetie. There was no way I was to give you up, let you down, run around, and desert you."

"D-Did you just Rickroll me?!"

"Wow, Raffi. You know what Rickroll is? I'm shocked. Maybe you're finally getting out of your girly phase."

"I WAS NEVER GIRLY IN THE FIRST PLACE, DAMNIT!"

"Uh…guys?" Ayumi asked.

"I-I'm so sorry, you guys. This is how my mom normally acts."

"This is her normal personality?!" I asked.

"Damn…the difference in personality between you two is…rather shocking." Phoenix said as he came out of Peruvis' back.

"Yeah, we get that a lot." Raffina said with a sigh.

"It's okay, Raffina. Sara's a bit…interesting." Peruvis said.

"Oh, damn. She's making you use her first name?"

"Not just us three. The entire class has to call her Sara."

"Mom…what the hell?"

"What? Can you really blame me? "Mrs. Fielding" just makes me feel old."

"You're only 38."

"I know. That's about 20 years too old for me."

She wants to be 18 again?

"Mom. We've been over this."

"Over what? The rainbow?"

"NO, DAMNIT!" Raffina sighed while facepalming her entire head. "Look, Mom. I'm glad you're back…but please promise me you won't drive me and my friends crazy. We want to enjoy our first year of high school."

"Alright, Raffi. Anything for my lesbo daughter."

"H-How do you know I'm a lesbian?!" Raffina started blushing.

"Your sister told me."

"Amira…"

"And I think it's cute how you love girls now, sweetie."

"Mom, it's not girls. It's a girl."

"Oh~. I see."

Sara went silent for a bit, which was actually shocking for me. As she hasn't stopped talking since we met her this morning.

Then…she said this:

"So…did you bone her already?"

"WH-WHY THE HELL IS THAT ANY OF YOUR BUSINESS?!" Raffina shouted.

"I didn't hear a no…So that means you DID do it, huh?! Oh my God! I'm so proud of you, Raffi!"

"Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! SHUT UP!" Raffina's face was getting redder and redder the longer this conversation went on. I felt sorry for her. Having someone like Sara being your mother of all people must be a living hell.

And I thought Peruvis and Toule were nutcases…

*INSERT CLASSIC SCHOOL BELL CHIME HERE*

"Aw. Break's over." Sara whined.

"Thank God…" Raffina had slouched down to the ground. Covering her face in embarrassment.

"Well, this reunion was fun. See you at lunch, Raffi. Can't wait to meet your girlfriend." Sara giggled to herself as she walked back to our classroom.

The three of us were just dumbfounded on just what the hell just happened this morning. We didn't know what to do at this point.

"Well, that was interesting."

That is until Phoenix had the guts to actually say something and break this uncomfortable silence.

"*sigh* So, my mom's a teacher here…I'm not sure on whether or not this is a blessing or a curse."

"Look on the bright side, Raffina." Ayumi said to her. "There's a chance that you'll get easy grades from her."

"Yeah, I guess…anyway, I'm going to go back to class. See you guys at lunch."

"See ya." We all said as we watched Raffina get up and go inside her classroom. It was then we decided to go back to ours. Still dumbfounded (and a little scared) that such a woman is, for one, our teacher…but mainly Raffina's mother.

Rest in peace, Raffina's dignity…

Author's Note: In terms of changes, nothing much was done in this chapter. Just minor corrections and stuff. Raffina also still gets teased and embarrassed by her mother. That's something I just couldn't change.

Thanks for reading. Later.
