"Supplemental lessons?" I asked, confused as to why I had to go to them.
"Yes." Koumoto said as she sat at her desk, looking over everyone's work. "I have a meeting I need to get to, and you are one of the only few who scored perfectly on the cooking test. We would of asked anyone else... if it wasn't complicated." She said, letting out an annoyed sigh.
"Lilith, Aizawa, and Tandy." I said, with her nodding. 'Great, just great.' I thought with my own annoyed sigh.
Later
Opening the door, I saw Aizawa holding a combat knife, with a smile on her face. "Cooking practice again, eh? So what shall I hunt this time?" She said, with me pinching the bridge of my nose.
"I can't tell if its good or rotten." Tandy said, with me looking at her as she was examining the food, which was clearly good.
"Seriously, I don't know why I'm here." Lilith said, leaning against the window, looking board.
'The fact that she said that with a straight face, means she is ignorant to her own cooking skills.' I thought, sighing as I looked at Koumoto.
"You'll be making curry." She said before I could ask on what she wanted me to make. "We have all the ingredients ready. The principal decided on a whim that we teachers will be eating the curry you make." She said, then turning to face me. "Listen. We don't expect much. Honestly, even if its terrible, that fine." She said, with me narrowing my eyes at her. "So long as it can be called curry."
"If it is terrible, then I'm jumping out the window." I said, shocking her at what I said. "I'm kidding." I said, waving her off while looking in to the class.
"Feichko. Which is sweeter: Salt or Sugar?" She asked, with me hitting her in the head.
"WHAT KIND OF STUPID QUESTION IS THAT, YOU'RE THE TEACHER, YOU SHOULD KNOW?!" I yelled, with her rubbing her head, then hitting me in return.
"YOU SHOULDNT STRIKE YOUR TEACHER, LET ALONE A GIRL?!" She yelled, with me glaring back at her, where she then turned around and started walking away. "As long as you can tell the difference." She said, before she bolted.
'She just wanted to skip out.' I thought as I walked into the class and closed the door. "Ok, so, the first thing we need is a recipe." I said, with Aizawa raising her hand up. "I'm not a teacher, so don't treat me as such." I said, with her nodding.
"I've prepared a recipe this time." She said, with me nodding at her.
"Alright, aprons everyone!" I said, putting on a white apron while they got started. "Alright, lets begin!" I said, with them saluting. "Now, has anyone made curry before?" I asked, crossing my arms as I looked at them.
"Of course." Aizawa said, making me smile as this was going to be easy. "It's brown, rich, and has a very strong scent." She said, where she held up a knife. "I've seen it in the manga of this planet!" She said, making me sigh as she hasn't made it before.
'Manga, seriously?' I thought, pinching my nose.
"This planet?" Tandy questioned, not understanding what she was talking about.
"I used that information to find this recipe." Aizawa said, with me taking the recipe and looking it over, then tossing it behind me as I crumbled it up, shocking her.
"Wrong recipe!?" I yelled, pulling out the cook book and setting it down. "Now, everyone will follow my instructions!" I said, with them straightening up. "Ingredients, grab them as I call them off!" I said, with them saluting. "2 cans of 8 ounces unsweetened pineapple chunks, undrained. 6 bone-in chicken breast halves, skin removed, 12 ounces. 1 can, 15 ounces, garbanzo beans or chickpeas, rinsed and drained. 1 large onion, cut into 1-inch pieces. 1 cup julienned carrots. 1 medium sweet red pepper, cut into strips. 1/2 cup light coconut milk. 2 tablespoons cornstarch. 2 tablespoons sugar. 3 teaspoons curry powder. 2 garlic cloves, minced. 2 teaspoons minced fresh gingerroot. 1 teaspoon salt. 1 teaspoon pepper. 1 teaspoon lime juice. 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes. Hot cooked rice. 1/3 cup minced fresh basil." I read off, with me watching them gather each and every one of them.
Once they had gotten everything, they had everything placed in front of them. "What's next chef?" They all said, with me looking over each ingredient.
"Drain pineapple, Lilith, I'll leave that to you!" I said, with her saluting.
"Easy!" She said, grabbing the pineapple and going over to the skink.
"Don't pour it down the sink, we need the juice!" I said, getting an ok from her. "Next, Place the chicken, beans, vegetables and pineapple in the pot to be slow cooked. Aizawa, I'm leaving this to you, but wait for Lilith to finish with the pineapple first!" I said, with her saluting me as she started moving over to the pot with the ingredients.
"Here!" Lilith said as she placed the pineapple beside the other ingredients.
"Ok, In a small bowl, combine coconut milk and cornstarch until smooth. Tandy, this is up to you!" I said, with her saluting and grabbing everything she needed and then getting to it. "Next, stir in the sugar, curry powder, garlic, ginger, salt, pepper, lime juice, pepper flakes and reserved juice, Lilith, your up!" I said, with her nodding and doing just that.
"You sure know what you're doing!" Aizawa said as she stepped over to me and looked at the book.
"Of course, now, pour the mixture over the chicken." I told her, with her leaving me to do that. "Once that is done, cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or until the chicken is tender. Serve with rice; sprinkle with basil." I finished, with me closing the book and getting started on the rice.
6 hours later
"I guess we're having dinner here." Lilith said, seeing that it was dark out, with me looking at her.
"Well... Maybe I should of picked a quicker recipe." I said, sweat dropping at my mistake. "It did leave us with some time to sit back and relax." I said, with them nodding. "Anyways, I'm going to go out and get the remaining staff members." I said, getting up and walking over to the door. Once I opened it, I saw all of the waiting outside with water in their mouths and stars in their eyes. Closing the door, I looked at the others. "Well, I'm jumping out the window." I said, running over to the window as the door was pushed open. "See you later!" I said, opening the window and jumping out, aiming for the bushes.
The next day
Sitting on the roof, I looked up at the sky, having heard that a meteor was coming down to end the earth. It made me sad as there was still so much that I wanted to do in this world. Now, I would never get the chance to do them. Hearing the door open, I turned and looked at it, with me seeing Kuromine running over to me.
I was suddenly shocked as he grabbed my head and pulled me closer to him, kissing me on the lips. Breaking the kiss, I punched him in the face. "FUCKER, THE FUCK DO YOU FUCKING THINK YOU'RE FUCKING DOING!?" I yelled, whipping my mouth. "I NEED FUCKING BLEACH, GET ME FUCKING BLEACH!?" I yelled, running off while trying not to throw up.
It was later that day I learned that Akane was behind the meteor and that the girls beat it out of her because she went home hungry yesterday. I washed my mouth out with every type of mouth wash, soup and toothpaste that day.
