Chapter 5: Biology, Ballet and the Major Embarrassment



(Biology)

"Class, you'll enjoy today" spoke Ms Otis. Ms Otis was in her early thirties and was wearing jeans and a shirt. Ms Otis came back with some dead frogs. Ms Otis grouped them in groups of seven. Prue, Jake and a girl with a wacky hairstyle were in their group.

"Today, you will be dissecting these frogs I killed"

If Beast Boy wasn't already green, he would've turned it. He was about to burst in anger and yell at the teacher. But someone did that before him.

"WHAT!?! YOU EXPECT ME TO DISSECT A FROG!?! A HARMLESS FROG!?! WELL THINK AGAIN!!! I'M A VEGETARIAN!!! HOW DARE YOU KILL AN INNOCENT FROG!!!" someone screamed from the crowd. Guess who it was.

Prue. Beast Boy gave Cyborg a look that meant ha-ha-she-has-more-things-in- common-with-me.

"Well, I can and I will kill a chicken for you to dissect as well as the frog if you don't behave!!!" said the teacher.

This time Beast Boy helped in yelling at the teacher.

"WHY HOW DARE YOU, YOU MURDERER!!! $%#& YOU $%#& YOU ALL!!!" shouted Prue, her face turning red from anger.

"YEAH!!!MURDERER!!! YOU ARE SUCH A %&$#!!!" yelled Beast Boy.

"Alright! Both of you, I can tolerate vegetarians going off at me, it's happened before! But I do not tolerate bad language in my class!!! Both of you, to the Principal's Office!!!" said Ms Otis.



"Now both of you. I can understand that you refuse to dissect an animal. But I will not tolerate bad language in my school" spoke Mr Hendgely, the principal. He wore a suit of course. He was one of those people you couldn't imagine wearing anything but a suit. In the corner of his eye, Beast Boy thought he saw that guy Raven sat next to.

"Okay...we know. You're gonna give us a detention" moaned Prue.

"Actually no, May-Lin. You will not receive detention." Mr Hendgely said.

"Okay...who's May-Lin?" Beast Boy asked. He could see no one else in the room.

"It's my real name. Prue's just a nickname the teachers and students call me because at my old school they teased me and said my real name is stupid. And it is. It's all flowery, pretty and wussy. Please call me Prue instead" whispered Prue.

"So, you're letting us off the hook and won't punish us?" Beast Boy smiled, glad. Prue smiled too.

"No" said Mr Hendgely. Prue and Beast Boy's smiles turned upside down.

"Why!?! What do you mean!?!" They said in unison.

"I said I would not give you a detention but that doesn't mean I won't punish you. Come into the teacher's bathroom please" Mr Hendgely said smiling.

Caning wasn't allowed anymore. So he couldn't cane them. Why did they have to go into the bathroom then. The principal yanked Beast Boy towards the sink.

"Close your eyes and open your mouth" he said.

Beast Boy obeyed and wondered why. Then he knew. The principal put soap in Beast Boy's mouth. Mr Hendgely was washing his mouth out with soap, literally. Beast Boy gagged and coughed. He couldn't spit it out because Mr Hendgely was holding his mouth shut. After a minute he let go of Beast Boy's mouth. Beast Boy spat the soap out. Mr Hendgely gave him a glass of water. Beast Boy rinsed his mouth but couldn't get the taste of soap out. Prue was yanked forward. The principal told her the same thing as he told Beast Boy. Prue opened her mouth but didn't close her eyes. She knew that she's have her mouth washed out with soap too. What she didn't know was that she would have her mouth washed out with the soap that Beast Boy's mouth had been washed out with. She struggled but the principal managed to keep her mouth shut with the soap inside. Afterwards Prue yelled at the teacher.

"WHY DID YOU USE THE SAME SOAP!?!" Prue yelled.

"Because you said the F word, the rudest word, twice" answered the principal "Do not continue yelling or I'll put the soap back in your mouth. Now I think you've learnt your lesson."

They walked back to Biology class. The others asked whether they got detention.

"No." said Beast Boy, gloomily.

"Then why so down?" asked Cyborg.

"Well, let's just say our punishment was having our mouths washed out with soap" Prue said, gloomier than Beast Boy.

"EWW!!!" said Cyborg and Robin in unison.

"That is just disgusting, right?" said Starfire.



Raven felt absolutely ridiculous. She was standing in a corner wearing a pretty, pink, frilly, tutu.

"I have never felt so embarrassed in my life" she said.

A girl called Emma had told her that at Biology they were doing dissecting frogs. Emma was glad her parents made her do Ballet instead of Biology. Raven begged to differ. She would much rather pull out frog guts than be doing Ballet. Not that she was. The teacher could make her wear the tutu but she could not make her do it.

"Raven, please dearie. Please at least do a pirouette. A few steps. ANYTHING!!!" begged the teacher.

She refused until Mrs Wesley thought of something.

"Raven you get over here and do what the rest of the group is doing or you will have remedial ballet!!!"

Raven didn't want to do any more Ballet than she had to. Extremely reluctant, she started doing what the rest were doing.

Then the door opened. The guy she was sitting next to walked in and gave some papers to Mrs Wesley. He noticed Raven. She had never been so embarrassed in her life. Sure, at the beginning of the day she wanted him to at least notice her existence but he didn't. Now, when she didn't want anyone to see her, the guy she had to sit next to came in and noticed her. He'd probably tease her when he noticed she sat next to him the next day. She was so embarrassed a mirror broke and a vase melted. A hole appeared below her and she floated in. She ended up in the change room, getting back into black.
