Claude had brought a bunch of book over from his house, he liked mythology, especially Greek mythology.
"So, who do you think we should research?" Tyson asked as he looked over the project guidelines Miss DeSousa had handed out in class. "I don't now much about any mythology, other than Japanese mythology, and you can bet that a bunch of people in out class are going to pick that so they can slack off." "Well." Claude started off. "There are many Gods and Goddesses from Greek mythology, what do you want them to rule over?" Seeing Tyson's blank face made him chuckle to himself. "I mean, what kind of God do you want them to be, the God of the sun, the God of the sea, what do you want them to be?"
Tyson thought for moment, eyes crossing in thought. "Well, how about I choose two and you choose two?" Claude nodded and Tyson thought some more. "How about, the God or Goddesses of wisdom, and..... The God or Goddess of, the moon." "Artemis and Athena, good choice, I'll choose Aries, he's Artemis's brother, and he God of the sun and Zeus, the God of all Gods." "Cool, now what?" "We research." Claude pulled out two books, they were both fairly large and Tyson's eyes widened when he saw them. "I'm not going to have to read all of that, am I?" Claude chuckled to himself again. "No, just look for Airtimes and Athena, I'll look for Aries and Zeus."
Tyson was reading, and jotting down little points every once in a while, same with Claude. 'Athena's sacred bird was the owl. She was the Goddess of wisdom, battle and certain crafts. The olive tree was sacred to her. She was one of the three virgin Goddesses....'
Hilary was busy stomping her way over to Tyson's house, she refused to work with Julia, and so the girl was now working on her own, not that Hilary cared, soon she would have Claude as her partner and then she would start working on her project. 'And that will be soon, very soon.'
Claude was trying to explain to Tyson how Athena could have possibly been born from Zeus's head, in full armor. "They're Gods, Tyson, they can do anything, including being born because their father had a headache and someone cut his head open with an axe." And then Hilary burst into the room. "Tyson! I demand you- Oh, hi Claude." She waved with a 'seductive' smile. "Anyways! Tyson! I demand that Claude become my partner!"
Tyson sat there for a moment. "What? No!" "Yes! It's for the better! How can he get a good mark with a slacker like you as his partner?!" Claude had definitely had enough. "I want to be Tyson's partner." 'In more ways than one.' He said in his normal, cool voice, Hilary's eyes widened. 'No, I have to get them apart before Claude becomes attached to Tyson!' "Why do you want to work with him, when you could work with me?"
Hilary was trying her hardest to change Claude's mind, she didn't think it would be that hard, Tyson practically fell asleep in class everyday! His marks were only average while hers were at the top of the class! She was cute! (You keep telling yourself that.) And Tyson was just so... Tyson. 'I've got to have Claude as my partner! I refuse to work on this project till Claude works with me!' To bad she didn't know how long she'd have to wait for that wish to come true. Oh, let's try, forever!
Tyson watched from the sidelines as Hilary practically pleaded Claude to be her partner. 'Okay, that's enough distraction for one night.' "Hilary, get out of my house." Tyson demanded, hands on his hips, Claude and Hilary just looked over at him. 'I never noticed how tall Claude was before....' "You heard me, go away!" Hilary just glared and stared walking away, slowly. "Claude will be my partner, you'll see!" And then she started running.
Tyson walked over to Claude, who looked down at him. "Are you actually friends with her?" Tyson looked at him, his expression was priceless. "Me? Her? No way! I didn't like her and she didn't like me, she didn't even know what a beyblade was till last year, and then she started hanging around me and my friends, trying to sound smart or something." Tyson sighed. "I don't know why everyone else seemed to think she was okay, she was always so annoying. 'Tyson you should practice! Tyson forget about Zeo, you have to watch this! Tyson you're an idiot!' She's just so freaking annoying!" After Tyson was done with his little rant he looked up, Claude was shaking and he had a hand over his mouth. "Oh sure, go ahead and laugh." And Claude did so.
Tyson glared at the European blader. "I didn't actually mean you could laugh you know." Claude just tried to stop. "But you sounded like a girl!" He went back to his laughter and Tyson pouted. "Well, duh, I was trying to sound like an annoying girl!" He put his hands on his hips, it didn't seem Claude was going to stop laughing any time soon.
"Okay, you can stop anytime you like." Tyson said as he began to turn, to bad he tripped over his own foot and fell, onto Claude, who fell to the floor from the extra weight.
And there they were, in a very 'compromising' position, both looking at each other with wide eyes, what was going to happen?
FASH: What is going to happen indeed, I know what's going to happen, I wrote down the summary for my next chapter already, and it isn't what you may think, unless you think what I think and I think you don't.
Claude: I did not
understand a single word you just said.
FASH: A lot of people say
that about me, so, how do you feel about this chapter cutie?
Claude: ..... You have issues.
CT: Tissues?
