"Ok, I believe that Cindy is up next," Ms. Fowl said as Sheen walked back to his seat. The class was in the middle of its weekly show and tell. Cindy grabbed something from her pocket and went up.

"Well, this is my mother's locket," she said as she opened her palm to reveal a beautiful golden locket. All the girls oohed and ahhed. The boys just rolled their eyes, except for Jimmy. He was paying close attention to what Cindy was saying.

"This has been in my family for five generations. It is passed down from mother to daughter on the daughter's wedding day. My mom's had it for twenty years. And once I get married I'll inherit it. That's about it," she said as she put the locket back in her pocket. The class started clapping.

"Very nicely done, Cindy. Does anybody have any questions?" Ms. Fowl asked the class.

Jimmy raised his hand. "What is it, Neutron?" Cindy spat out.

A hurt look spread across Jimmy's face, but it quickly disappeared. "I just wanted to say that you did a good job," he quietly told her. You'd think that after all we've been through this year she could be a little nicer to me.

"Oh, sorry," Cindy skeptically said as she went back to her sit.

"Jimmy, are you ready?" Ms. Fowl asked.

Jimmy nodded his head and pulled two things out of his backpack. One was what looked like a large remote control; the other was a small box. He walked to the front of the room and placed the box down on a nearby desk.

"Well, today I brought in another invention. I call it the MatchMaker5000," he started while holding up the remote, but he stopped when he saw Cindy raise her hand. "What is it, Cindy?"

"Why 5000?" she asked him.

"I like the number," Jimmy told her as he shrugged. "Anyway, what you do is scan a large group of people or animals of the same species. It reads their characteristics and pairs the male and female together that would be the best mates."

"So, it basically picks your perfect boyfriend or girlfriend from the group?" Cindy asked.

"Exactly," Jimmy told the class. Even he was surprised by how quickly he had agreed with Cindy. "Anyway, I have a demonstration ready," he said as he opened the box. Everyone gasped as he held it up. It was full of dozens of ants. "Don't worry, there's a glass plate attached to the top. There's no way that they can get out," he said as he rapped the invisible wall.

"Carl, if you would bring me the projector," Jimmy asked his friend. Carl rolled over the projector, which Jimmy attached his MatchMaker5000 to. He then walked over to the blackboard and tried to roll down the screen, but he couldn't reach it. "Um, one second," he said as he tried to get it.

For God's sake, Cindy thought as she walked over and pulled it down for him. "Uh, thanks," Jimmy quietly whispered to Cindy. He strolled back over to his invention. "If you'll watch the screen, the results of the scan will appear there in a moment," he told the class as he started scanning the large group of ants.

Within a few seconds there were two dozen pairs of numbers and picturesin a column. Across from that column was the reason why the MatchMaker5000 put those ants together.

"I programmed the machine so that it can read the names of the individuals. If there are no names, as is the case with these ants, it displays their DNA code and a picture. As you can see, the MatchMaker5000 is capable of reading the tiniest of differences between two different specimens. This experiment works better on larger and more complex animals, such as apes or humans. Any questions?" Jimmy asked as he put the cover back on the ant box.

"So, you're saying that this invention could show us the best matches in this classroom?" Nick asked.

"Well, yes," Jimmy nervously answered.

"Well, let's try it out then!" Nick shouted. Everyone murmured their agreement.

This is a great way for the two of us to get closer together, Cindy thought. "Yeah, let's do it, Neutron!" she shouted.

"Alright, hold it!" Jimmy shouted. The class became silent. "Yes, I could do this. But don't you think that this would be a little embarrassing for some people?"

"Neutron, I think we're all willing to try it," Nick said for everyone. Most of the class nodded their heads.

Jimmy didn't like the idea, but he could see that his fellow classmates weren't going to give up. He turned to Miss Fowl. "Well, can I, Ms. Fowl?"

The teacher leaned back in her chair and thought for a moment. "Well, I suppose if everyone agrees to it," she said. The class once again shouted their approval. "Fine, go ahead and do it, Jimmy."

Jimmy let out a deep sigh. There is no way that this can end well. He pointed the MatchMaker5000 at his fellow students and hit the SCAN button.
