Sooo... next chapter! Yay!

Lucas watched the explosion in despair. Cybersix... no, he thought dimly. Lori stood beside him, watching it in equal despair.
"Pro... Professor Siedleman. Is he...he is!" She concluded, and burst into tears. This, however, only lasted for a second as she remembered something. "Wait a second," She said, her tear flow completely stopped, "Professor Siedleman was a chick! Why do I miss him... her? This isn't right. I'm outta here," Lori started to leave, then turned back to Lucas, "You coming, Professor Amado? You are my ride back to town, after all." To prove her point, Lori sat back down on the motorbike and put on the helmet.
"Yeah... I'm coming," Lucas said, managing to tear his eyes away from the smoking remains of the explosion to get on his bike and drive Lori and himself back into town.

Cybersix almost had to crawl up the stairs. Now that she was human, it was almost impossible to keep up with Data 7, even though he had only been jogging. And she had to take the stairs! She couldn't even just jump up to her window. Being human is harder than I thought, Cybersix realized. Even her thoughts were panting now. She finally reached the top of the stairs and had just managed to pick herself up, get to her apartment, and unlock the door, when Data 7 pushed his nose at her.
"I want a turkey sandwich! Hurry Cybersix! I'm really hungry!" Data 7 exclaimed, running straight for the kitchen. Cybersix followed, and just barely managed to get to the kitchen and make her brother his sandwich before collapsing on her bed. She fell into a very restful and very long sleep, not worrying that there was school the next day.

Lucas somehow managed to drag himself to school that day. How, he didn't know. All morning he kept telling himself to take the day off, but he just couldn't bring himself to. After all, he didn't take a sick day when he was turning into a werewolf, and he wouldn't take a sick day just because he was depressed. No, he had to muster all the courage he had, and go dimly teach his biology class. Of course, none of the students noticed a change in his teaching. It was just as bad as before. Not even Lori noticed. She was too busy reading poetry.

Cybersix awoke with a start. There was school today! And it was... 8:30! Oh no! School starts in half an hour! She jumped out of bed, and was getting ready when she remembered. She didn't have to hide anymore. Von Reichter was gone. Sighing happily to herself, she picked up the phone, and called in Adrian Siedleman's resignation.

Lucas watched as a new teacher walked by. Must be a substitute for Adrian...er, Cybersix's class. He thought. Turning back to his own class, Lucas returned to the real world, and continued teaching his lesson on cells.

Cybersix sighed. Even her attempts at dressing femininely failed miserably. The clothes didn't help, though. The only ones she had were her black leather uniform and the clothes she wore as Adrian. And she figured going shopping in her uniform would draw too much attention to her, so, wearing Adrian's clothes, and with a pocketful of cash, Cybersix left her apartment, and went to find something a little more feminine.

Lucas dragged himself home. What a day. He thought. He never would have dreamed that were Adrian to be away for even one day that he would feel like this. Of course he wouldn't, but now that he knew Adrian was Cybersix, well, that changed everything. It also explained a lot. Lucas walked into his apartment, and promptly splashed water onto his face. Maybe this would wake him up.

Out of cash, Cybersix dragged herself and her new wardrobe home, intent on washing it so that she could actually wear it tomorrow and not reek of new clothes. She pulled her numerous bags out of the elevator, that she swore hadn't been there yesterday, and called Data 7 to open the door. When he did, she threw her bags into the room, closed the door, and sank to the floor, completely and absolutely exhausted. Data 7 immediately started nosing around in her bags.
"So... what'd ya get me?" He asked, not removing his nose from the mess he had spread all over the floor. "You did get me something, right?" Cybersix laughed.
"Of course I got you something." She pointed to a small brown bag. "Look in there." Data 7 pounced on the bag like a kid at Christmas, and tore it open to reveal...
"Ooh! Sis, you shouldn't have!" Data 7 said as nearly swallowed the hamburger whole. Cybersix could only laugh at her brother as she tried to clean up the mess.
