Gundam Wing chemistry class, part 2
"Okay now... After a terribly long distraction, we are finally ready to start the chemistry course. Your text books are in your desks, so please turn them at page 4." Lady Une took her own manual from her desk. "Today, we'll start by going to the laboratory to see what kind of experiments you will do throughout the year." she looked at her students. No one seemed to be speaking behind her back. They looked like little angels. "Well, if there are no questions, let's head for the laboratory." Lady Une didn't even have time to finish her phrase that the students were up and talking, leaving out the door for the laboratory. She took her books and shook her head. This would be a long day.
"Did I ever mention you to be quiet in the halls?" Lady Une followed behind her students, that were talking very loudly down the hall to the lab.
"Actually Miss Une, no, you never mentionned anything about being quiet. As a matter of fact..." Duo was about to continue when he saw Lady Une's face turn a disturbing shade of red.
"Maxwell... I... didn't ask... for your rude comments... Get into the lab... right now..." Lady Une pointed to the lab. Duo didn't have to be asked twice to obey. He sat at the same table as the rest of the G-boys. "Alright everyone..." Lady Une took precautions and closed the lab door behind her. "I'll ask you to sit in groups of 8, since we're 32 in class, that will make 4 groups." Lady Une stepped up to the front of the laboratory as the students changed tables.
"So... we stay at this table, right?" Quatre opened his chemistry manual and started to look into it. Duo nodded as he moved his stuff in front of Quatre. Heero, Trowa and Wufei sat at the other end of the table.
"Ummm... Quatre?"Quatre heard a small voice behind him. He turned around to find Ayumi looking at him with her big green eyes, her books in hand.
"Hi Ayumi!"Quatre smiled at the young girl.
"Umm.. Is there someone else sitting here?"Ayumi seemed shy to ask.
"No,you can sit there if you want..." Quatre gave his friends an hesitant look. Duo smiled at Ayumi and nodded. Trowa shot a death glare at Quatre. Heero seemed relieved that Relena and Zechs hadnÕt asked to sit at their table yet. Wufei just tried to arrange his school outfit. Ayumi sat down next to Quatre.
Thanks. I don't really know anyone in this class except you so..." Ayumi smiled gratefully at Quatre. He blushed slightly.
"Can I ask you a question?" Duo sat up straight in his chair.
"Sure..."Ayumi looked at Duo curiously.
"Where did you take that weird school outfit?" Duo looked at Ayumi's outfit. It consisted of a blue skirt that fell a bit higher than her knees and a white button shirt.
"Oh! This? It comes from France... My ethnicy is French and I used to go to school there. I'm waiting for the school outfit from this school so in the meanwhile I wear this one." Ayumi straightened out her skirt. Duo nodded.
Heero watched as Wufei straightened out his own outfit when he felt a gentle tug on his school outfit. "Hey there Heero! We're sitting here kay?" Heero turned around to see Relena and Zechs, placing their things on the table. Zechs sat next to Quatre and Relena next to Heero, of course.
"Alright, attention class!" Lady Une took out liquids and accesories out of the closets of the lab and handed out a small portion of them to each person on each table. "I just want you to experience the different aspects of these liquids for now. You have the rest of the period to do so." Lady Une took out her book, sat down at her desk and started reading it.
"Sooo... what are we supposed to do with this?" Duo just stared at his solution which had been placed in front of him. It was a pink-redish color.
"Look at page 4 of your manual, Duo. Your solution might be there." Ayumi pointed to the book with one of her long fingernails. She started to flip the pages of the big book, looking through it quickly, then gave her solution a look. It was almost transparent, except for a small shade of blue.
"I know what I'm gonna do... A solution that will make me the QUEEN OF THE WORLD!!!" Relena gave her solution a look as she lost herself in daydream.

(Taking a trip into what goes on in Relena's tiny, little excuse for a brain...)
"Oh Heero my love.... I'm so glad I came up with that potion." Relena saw herself sitting a big, overstuffed chair in front of a giant fireplace. They were both in the Sanc Kingdom, that had been rebuilt, again, after Relena's potion had made her queen of the world. She got up and walked over to the giant window that stood a few feet away from the chair. Heero came up behind her and took her in his arms. Relena shuddered as she felt the warmth of her husband's (Yikes!) body against hers.
***
"Hey, yo... Earth to Relena... Earth to Relena..." Duo waved a hand in front of Relena's face. She was smiling stupidily, staring into emptiness. Duo snapped his fingers in front of her eyes. Relena jumped up about a feet high from her seat.
"DON'T YOU EVER SCARE ME LIKE THAT AGAIN, MAXWELL.... After all, I am the queen of the world." Relena returned to her spacy, little world. Trowa hit his forehead for what seemed to be the thousenth time that morning. Heero had already started working on his project, which was already starting to take shape, but not enough so no one could tell what it was yet.
"No one will interfere with my plan... No one will interfere with my plan... No one will interfere with my plan... No one will interfere with my plan... No one will interfere with my plan..." he kept repeating in his head, sometimes lifting up his eyes to see if anyone was paying attention to him.
"Hey Heero? Whatcha doin'?" Duo looked curiously at the strange figured chemical project Heero was shaping.
"Omae o korosu..." Heero took out a gun from his outfit and pointed it at Duo's forehead.
"All right, I'll mind my own... business now..." Duo quietly turned away from Heero's little project, as did everyone else that had been looking. Heero put away his gun and continued working on his solution as if nothing had happened.
"Well... .I have no idea what to do with this greenish looking stuff..." Zechs turned the glass of solution upside down, thinking the seal on it was tightly closed. It turned out it wasn't. The green liquid slowly dripped out of the glass and onto the table. "Umm... Miss Une?" Zechs called out to the teacher, waving his free hand disturbingly in the air, hiding the now empty glass behind his back.
"What is it, Zechs?" Lady Une walked over to the table, where the green liquid had fell.
"I sort of dropped my solution on the table so..." Zechs saw Lady Une's mouth drop open to the ground. He turned around to see what was wrong with the picture, excepting to see a mess of green goo. Instead, he saw a black hole pierced through the table as the greenish stuff fell on the floor. Zechs' eyes grew big as the solution started making a hole in the floor!!! "Ooops..." was all he managed to choke out.
"ZECHS MERQUISE!!! WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?!?" Lady Une was trying to keep her cool, but up till now, it was failing. She tried visualizing Treize in her mind, which usually made her calm down, but it was really failing.
"It was a mistake..." Zechs tried to explain what had happened while the green goo continued to make a hole in the floor, big enough for it to slip through and cause it to land in an English class on the second floor.
"Where did it go?!?" Duo pointed out as he looked through the hole in the floor. He could see the people from the English class below them gathering around the green goo, pointing at it at making disgusted face. He snickered.
"Well, we're gonna have to go after it..." Lady Une pulled Zechs by the hand and led him out the class and down the stairs to the second floor. "You will continue on your experiments as if nothing had happened." she yelled to her students as she ran out the door, pulling Zechs by end of arm, not far behind her.
"Sooo, what are we supposed to do now?" Duo was careful not to let his solution slip out of the glass as he examined it from every side.
"Well, I guess I should get started on mine..." Ayumi turned to hers.
"No one will interfere with my plan... No one will interfere with my plan... No one will interfere with my plan... No one will interfere with my plan..." Heero kept repeating himself under his breath.
"Hey, Heero, do you think this'll will work?" Relena was about to show Heero her solution.
"NO ONE WILL INTERFERE WITH MY PLANS!!!" Heero shouted, very loudly, drawing all the attention towards their table.
"It's nothing, people, you can get back to work now..." Relena sweatdropped as she waved her hands, trying to convince the bunch of curious people shooting weird looks their way. "You know," she turned towards Heero after having calmed down the class, like the total pacifist she was, "you could've been more DISCREET ABOUT IT!" Relena shouted that a bit louder than intended. The entire class turned towards them, again.
"Omae o korosu..." Heero turned away from Relena to continue working on his project.

And during all this time, about the only ones to keep quiet were Trowa and Quatre. Quatre dared to shoot a glance at Trowa, but got nothing in return. He was absorb by what seemed to be his research. Quatre tried to concentrate, but soon found out that he couldn't. He looked over at Ayumi, who was working on her project too. Was Trowa jealous of this girl? Maybe that was why he had been shooting death glares at him all morning! "Hey Trowa... What are you doing?" the young arabian dared to ask the question to his what-seemed-to-be-best-friend.
"A solution that will make very annoying redheads go away..." Trowa didn't even turn to face Quatre. He just continued working, as if nothing had happened. Ayumi turned around and glanced at him with a strange look, but decided not to make a big fuss over it and continued to work.
"Trowa... Why is your forehead red?" Quatre innocently looked at Trowa with his best puppy dog eyes look. He would get Trowa to talk to him again.
"Because of a certain annoying redhead, from which my amnesia had resurfaced, since I can't seem to remember her name." Trowa glanced over at Ayumi to see what her reaction would be. She just ignored him, continued to work. Trowa couldn't quite seem to choose who he wanted to strangle first, Ayumi, or Quatre.
"Zechs, you are a hopeless cause... I guess I'll be seeing you next year in my chemistry class... again..." Lady Une entered the lab before Trowa had the chance to strangle either Quatre or Ayumi. She was still pulling Zechs, who was crying, by arms length, dragging him back to his seat.
"But please Miss Une... You gotta give me another chance..." Zechs got on both his knees and pleaded, pulling on Lady Une's sweater.
"That's what you said last year... And the year before that... And before that... And before that..." Lady Une was about to continue when Zechs motioned for her to stop, since the entire class was watching. Zechs had, in his best interest, tried to keep the other students in the class from knowing his dark, deep chemistry class horrors. But it seemed the cat was out of the bag. "Well now, I guess your classmates need an explanation. Where should I start?" Lady Une picked up her glasses, who had been lying on her desk up till now and put them in her eyes under the horrofied look of her students.
"Umm... Would you mind, not starting at all?" Zechs tried to preserve what little self-esteem he had left. If another word came out of Lady Une's mouth while she had her glasses on, mostly about Zechs' past chemistry classes, his reputation was ruined. He would be the laughing stock of then entire class, including the nerds he used to have so much fun bullying around at lunch hour. Now HE would be the one being bullied!!!
"Okay... We arrived at the second floor English class to look for the big green glob of ooze, but it had already passed through the floor onto the first floor. We both rushed down the stairs, to see that it had fallen on the bald janitor's head!!! We quickly took out rubber gloves and picked up the mess, but the poor janitor's head will need thousands of dollars of plastic surgery to remodel it like it used to be!!!" Lady Une explained in a hurry, smirking at Zechs' poor, disoriented face. He would've thought that Lady Une would've took his side, but how horrible it was to face the truth.
"I didn't know you had put acid in there... If I had known I..." Zechs started, but to his dismay, Lady Une continued.
"And LAST YEAR... I heard from the last teacher that Zechs had mixed up to chemicals she had specifically told him not to mix, on purpose, and practically blew up the laboratory on the first floor. That's why we're using this one here!" Lady Une was laughing at this point, as were half of the students in the class, including Quatre, who was slightly smirking, scared of what Zechs would do to him if he caught him laughing, Trowa, Relena, Ayumi and Wufei. Heero was too absorbed by his research to even notice the people around him were all laughing for some kind of reason whatsoever.
"Ummm... Miss Une?" the principal popped his head through the doorway, much to Zechs'content. "May I have a talk with you for a moment?" Lady Une took of her glasses. She looked aound the class in confusion, wondering why the students were laughing. Was it something she had done?
"Yes sir..." she quietly followed the principal out the door and into the hallway.
"Alleluia..." Zechs wiped his forehead. A few students sitting at nearby tables were snickering and pointing at him. he shot them a few death glares, which automatically made them shut up.
"Well now... I had no idea you had such an... interesting past, Zechs." Relena taunted Zechs, now knowing his soft spot. Now she could get back at him for all the times he had flushed her head down the Sanc Kingdom toilet or for all the times he had put shaving cream in her slippers or...
"Students, you have a new classmate... Please welcome Dorothy Catalonia to our class." Lady Une cut into Relena's daydream. She looked in front of the class, not quite having understood what Lady Une had said. Her eyes grew big when she saw Dorothy at the front of the class, smirking at her. Dorothy happened to be Relena's biggest enemy, namely because, before she left back to wherever she had come from, she was HITTING ON HEERO!!!
"No... I thought thing couldn't get any worse than having my brother in my class, now, this... this... animal is in my class too? How... awful!!!" Relena complained out loud as Lady Une pointed Dorothy to go sit next to Relena at the lab table.
"Now you know how I feel..." Heero muttered under his breath, just loud enough for the others to here, not even taking his eyes of his project. Duo burst out laughing, Quatre, Zechs, Trowa, Wufei and Ayumi muffled a laugh and Dorothy paraded towards the table, wondering what the commotion was about.
"Hi guys... Hiiiii Heeerooo!!!" Dorothy gave a lovey-dovey puppy-dog look at Heero. He felt like gagging.She then turned towards Quatre. "Well if it ain't my favorite Gundam pilot, Quatre..." she spoke with a voice that was a sweet as honey. Quatre turned around but was greeted by a death glare from Trowa. He turned to look at Ayumi, searching for some kind of support. Ayumi was staring at Dorothy in disbelief that this girl could be trying to steal her spot as Quatre's favorite. She shot a death glare at Dorothy. Quatre slapped his forehead with is hand. This would DEFINETELY be a long semester, now that Dorothy was here...
