Theme 66: Fail
"Never in my thirteen years of teaching have I ever seen such horror befall upon the baby project." Mr. Hayashi held up what was left of the plastic baby with amused curiosity in his eyes. "As far as I can tell it's been dropped in the mud, caught fire at least once, and -if I'm not mistaken- has been used as a target practice."
Mamori, who had been fiddling with her skirt and blushing- in either shame or embarrassment- gave a side glare to the quarterback. Hiruma was as calm as ever with his feet propped up on the teacher's desk while he blew a bubble. Mr. Hayashi shook his head and started writing something down in his grade book. "While I'm hoping that here is a perfectly... logical explanation I have no choice but to fail you both."
The manager looked like she was about to argue for a moment but she kept silent and simply nodded. The quarterback didn't have much of a reaction.
"You two are dismissed."
As they left his classroom Mr. Hayashi couldn't help but overhear part of their conversation.
"I can't believe you!" There was a slight shrillness to her voice. "I leave you alone with her for five minuets to use the bathroom and you cost us our grade! How could you cause so much harm in such a short period of time?"
"Misguided rocket launcher."
There was a sound that indicated that she had just repressed a scream. "And the bullet marks?"
"The fucking thing was staring at me."
