Run for the Class President!

By Joyce

Chapter 15 Class Spirit!

The class of room D12 was all gathered in the gymnasium with the sophomores. They were all waiting for the judges to arrive. After 2-3 minutes, the door of the gymnasium opened and Mr. Silva the principal walked in with all the other teachers behind him. Miss Morphine flew over to Mr. Silva to give him a microphone. The principal took the microphone from the small delicate pixie and started to speak.

"Wow, students, all of your costumes are very nice! Today we will start our pep rally with the games! The first game is an eating race. Mr. Marco, please explain," said Mr. Silva, handing the microphone to Mr. Marco.

Mr. Marco pushed his glasses up on his nose and cleared his throat.

"Now, I think all of you know the eating race. Today we will be eating 3 jars of baby food. Rules are, you can't spill the food and the first one to finish wins. Each class, please choose who you want to come enter the race. Oh, and also, you have to choose another person to come feed the person, so as not to spill the food," explained Mr. Marco.

"Who should we choose, Anna?" Yoh, the class president, asked his fiancé for her advice.

"It's obvious. Get the Christmas tree and Tamao out there to feed him. He's an eater," was Anna's simple reply.

"Huh. I absolutely agree that Horo Horo's an eater," put in Ren, rubbing his red "Rudolph" nose.

"Hey, brother! Get your as up there! And Tamao, feed him too! You're elected!" shouted Pilika to her brother.

"Eh? Me?" said a confused Horo Horo, pointing to himself.

"Yes, you," Tamao replied, pushing him gently to the stage.

The sophomores had elected Ryu (as Elvis Presley) to be the eater and a random boy (who had a shirt that said "I'm Jude Law, the Sexiest Man Alive" on) to be the feeder. Once Ryu, the Jude Law boy, Horo Horo, and Tamao were in their places, Mr. Marco gave the signal to start. Horo Horo immediately swallowed the first three spoonfuls of baby food that Tamao fed him without chewing. Ryu also did the same thing but he had a disgusted look on his face.

"Hey, Tamao, this is actually good," said Horo Horo, his mouth partially full.

Tamao giggled. Ryu turned to Horo Horo with an amazed look.

"Eww, I think it's disgusting!" said Ryu.

The race went on with Horo Horo swallowing every spoonful of baby food deliciously and Ryu forcing the stuff down his throat. Eventually, Ryu couldn't take it anymore and stopped for a break. During that time, Horo Horo sped up his eating and won.

"100 points for the freshmen!" announced Mr. Marco.

The second race was a relay race, and the Asakura twins won that race against the sophomore's Ashton Kutcher and Toby McGuire. Macchi and Mari lost the third race, a singing contest (because their voices were not that good) to their rivals, an Avril Lavigne and a Paris Hilton. But even though they lost the third race, the class cheered so hard for them that the principal gave them an extra 500 points just for undying team spirit. The fourth race, disappointingly, was also lost to the sophomore's Madonna in the dancing contest (mostly because Ren and Lyserg's dance moves were….uhh…very, very weird).

Now, room D12 had 250 points and the sophomores had 200 points.

"Now the last contest is, of course, the long awaited class cheer! Please try your very best!" announced Miss Tao, who now had the microphone, "now, let's start with the sophomores' class cheer first!"

The sophomores' cheering was heard as they ran up to the stage. Ryu, the class president of the sophomores, started the cheer with a monkey-like screech. After that, the whole class joined in and started doing monkey dances. Then, they all sang together in one voice:

"We are gonna win! (monkey screech)

We are getting the prize!

To us, you're only a pin! (monkey screech)

We even have the bigger size!

If you dare to dare,

Then we will fight you! (monkey screech)

We will always play fair,

We warned you, boo!" (monkey screech)

After that, the sophomores all pounded on their chests like gorillas to show their class spirit. The teachers all wrote their points down on their paper. Each teacher had 100 points maximum to give. Mr. Silva gave them 90 points, Mr. Faust gave them 90, Miss Morphine gave them 85, Mr. Marco gave them 60, and Miss Tao gave them 80 points. This gave Ryu's class 655 points in all.

"Now, it's the freshmen's turn to do their cheer! If you beat the sophomore's 655-point record you win! But if not, the sophomores win the free trip to the beach!" announced Mr. Silva.

The class of room D12, of course, accepted this challenge and ran up to the stage. They took a while to set up their positions. Ren was at the front with Pilika beside him. Then, with the rest of the class behind her rocking back and forth, she started singing:

"Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer,

Had a very shiny nose.

And if you ever saw it,

You would even say it glowed…"

While Pilika was singing this, Ren was wriggling his supposedly red (and cute) nose around. When she finished singing, Macchi and Mari did somersaults in front of them and came up front. They started singing (and dancing) too:

"I saw Mommy kissing Santa Claus,

Underneath the mistletoe last night…"

On cue, everyone found a partner to kiss (the typical partners, you know, Anna and Yoh, etc…and the Fangirls can kiss another Fangirl on the cheek). Then, Jeanne and Lyserg came up front and started singing in unison:

"Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock.

Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring…"

And, they really did rock and swing as they sang. Jeanne, in her shining star costume, did a tango with Lyserg. Then, Hao came to the front of the row with Macchi in his arms. Then, he put her down and she started singing:

"On my first day of Christmas,

My true love sent to me:

A partridge in a pear tree…"

With that sung, Hao made a partridge appear out of nowhere. He did several other tricks and gave them all to a beaming Macchi until the song was finished. Now, it was Horo Horo, Tamao, Chocolove's turn to come up. They sung:

"Frosty the snowman, was a jolly happy soul.

With his corncob pipe and a button nose

And two eyes made out of coal…"

As they sung, they did really weird dances and pretended to have button noses, which made the whole audience start laughing. After that, the four Fangirls strutted up to the front and did a really sexy dance (making the principal stare in awe) while singing:

"Deck the halls with boughs of holly,

Fa la la la la, la la la la.

'Tis the season to be jolly,

Fa la la la la, la la la la…"

The last part of the cheer, of course, was given to Yoh and Anna, the couple dressed as angels. They ended the cheer with:

"We wish you a merry Christmas,

We wish you a merry Christmas,

We wish you a merry Christmas,

And a happy new year!"

Then, the whole class held hands together and raised their hands up all at once, shouting in unison, "Goooooooooooo, FRESHMEN!"

A huge applause erupted in the gymnasium. Each of the teachers held up their signs that would tell them the points. Each of the signs read "100". This gave the class of room D12 750 points in total.

"Anna! We've won!" shouted Yoh, pulling Anna into a tight hug.

"Even though it's one week of no school, you still have to train," Anna emotionlessly replied.

"Yea, of course," said Yoh, probably not taking in what Anna just said and kissing her.

Hao walked over to Macchi and nudged her.

"Hey, we've won, haven't we?" he said casually.

"Yea, I'm glad, aren't you?" replied Macchi, smiling.

"Uh-huh. Of course. One whole week of no school. One whole week of making out with my girlfriend…" he said, his eyes flashing at her.

Macchi reddened.

"Aww…come onnn…stop teasing me…" she said.

"Naw, can't," said Hao, pulling her into a cuddle.

Pilika ran over to her friends too.

"Yayyy…Tamao, let's go shopping for new bikinis to wear to the beach today," cried Pilika, her face possible shining, "oh, Anna, Jeanne, Mari, and Macchi, please come too!"

The girls starting talking about their new shopping list. Since Ren was standing beside Pilika, he heard the whole conversation (the girls had forgotten that he was there). What he didn't realize was the other guys were tuning in to the girls' conversation too. Ren's face slowly reddened at the thought of Pilika in a bikini. Hao nudged him, bringing him out of his…ahem thoughts.

"I know your perverted thoughts," whispered Hao slyly.

"Whatever…" replied Ren, "even thought I can't read thoughts, you're thinking the same thing about Macchi, am I right?"

"Heh. You know me," was Hao's reply.

Lyserg was (surprisingly) also tuned in to the conversation. His face got redder and redder until he couldn't stand it anymore. He had to interrupt the conversation.

"Uhh…Jeanne, you're really wearing a bikini?" he asked curiously.

"Yea, why?" Jeanne asked, confused.

"Uhhhh….nothing…." he said, a dazed expression on his face.

"Uhhhh…nothing….." Horo Horo mimicked his friend in a squeaky voice, then whispered to Lyserg, "heh, I do know what you're thinking you know. Make a move, man."

By now, Anna had realized the eavesdropping on their girls-only conversation.

"Shush, girls. Look around," she said.

The girls now realized that the guys were listening in and each of the guys got a slap on their faces. Then, the girls walked away and did their conversing somewhere else, leaving the guys standing there alone in the now empty gymnasium, dumbfounded.

"That slap, I must say, was so worth it," said Yoh, breaking the dumb silence.

"That, I must agree…" replied Ren, rubbing his cheek.

"Hey guys, what do you say…if I challenge you guys to see who can make a move on those girls first?" Horo Horo piped up.

"Heh…you think you can beat me?" asked Hao slyly.

"Of course I can. Wait and see…" was Lyserg's simple reply, "my cuteness beats all…"

"No way, I'm cuter," said Ren confidently.

"We'll see, we'll see…" said Yoh cheerfully, "when's the race gonna start?"

"At the beach trip, of course…it's starting next week," said Horo Horo.

"Good…I have plenty of time to plan my evil schemes to prevent you guys from making your moves…." Hao said, rubbing his hands together, a sly smile on his face.

And, the class president election and the pep rally ended happily. It was ironic how a simple school even could make so many things happen. What is going to happen at the beach trip is left for you to imagine…

The End

Joyce: There, that's the end of the story! I really hope that you liked it (I was in a really Christmassy mood, I know)! Reviews too, please! :) And, if you guys want to know the inspiration for this chapter…well, it partly came from a real-life experience from one of my pep rallies at my school. Yea, that's all. :) Love you all, and thanks for all your support, bye! :D
