Chapter 3

Bastion entered what used to be the worst-teacher-alive's classroom. His body tensed up when he saw Taniya sitting at the desk. She can not being teaching, thought Bastion, this would be far too bizarre. He looked over at his friends who were chattering about either another great duel or that Taniya was here and possibly as a teacher. Jaden was flabbergasted at the situation. The bell shortly rang.

"Hello student," said Taniya sweetly, "I am Miss Taniya, and I look forward to teaching all of you about duel music. I have replaced Professor Beetenbach." Bastion felt chills run down his spine. She was going to be their teacher no doubt, but what could be next. There was a knock on the classroom door. The Amazonness ran to heed its call.

Chancellor Sheppard came in with Meg. She was in an Academy uniform all except she wore black army boots and a long sleeves black t-shirt under the white and blue shirt that all the other Obelisk girls had to wear. Bastion thought I believe they like to make each others' life miserable. Chancellor Sheppard announced, "This is Meg Miller. She is a new student here. So, we should all welcome her. I am sorry to interrupt your class, Miss Taniya." Taniya glared at her younger sister. She thought very sneaky of you, Megara. You even came up with a last name to be accepted by your peers, but you cannot fool me.

"Oh well, I was just introducing myself to my students so you hadn't interrupted anything," said Taniya sweetly. Bastion felt the tension surround and suffocate him. He wondered how the two sisters would survive each other's wrath while keeping calm and composed as a teacher and a student. He watched Chancellor Sheppard leave.

"Well," said Taniya attempting to sound professional, "Where did you leave off with Professor Beetenbach?" The students laughed. Chazz stood up with a grin similar to the Cheshire cat's white smile.

"We sang, but we didn't learn anything. We sang about duel monsters attacking ugly people and eating them," Chazz said cruelly. Most of the girls shuddered at Chazz's repulsive story while the guys laughed at Mr. Princeton. Taniya looked at the pale boy with black hair.

"Sit down and don't give me that lame excuse for not learning," Taniya snapped. Chazz simply shrugged as Chazz obeyed her orders. Taniya's smooth voice continued, "So who wants to tell me what you have actually been doing in this class?"

Jaden announced, "We haven't done anything. The teacher actually slept through class. This class isn't even necessary for graduation." Taniya shook her head in disbelief. How could students be deprived of learning? That was against all purpose or point of a school.

Taniya then began her lesson on famous duel musicians such as ones who dueled and composed music, rock star duelists, and such. She looked at the book the whole time realizing she had no idea what she was talking about. She was amazonness not a music teacher, but she had to keep Meg out of trouble and that was a definite job no matter the circumstances.

Bastion looked at the clock releasing a heavy sigh. I could read about this in the library and learn more thought Bastion. He noticed that Taniya was simply teaching out of the book. He looked at the clock smiling knowing that they only had twenty minutes left. He glanced over at Meg who was reading Dracula. Bastion was shocked, could the girls' society capable of reading their language, or did Meg learn to read on her own? So many questions needed to be answered.

Soon, the bell rang. The students rushed out of the classroom. Taniya looked hopeful that one of them would welcome her or give her some advice. She had no so much luck. She watched her sister leave the room without as much as a glance at her older sister. Bastion was already gone with his little buddies. Taniya wondered how she was supposed to survive and teach these kids. She had to prove herself as a great teacher.

Bastion caught up with Jaden, Syrus, Atticus, Chazz, and Hassleberry. All of them were laughing about something. Syrus looked up at Bastion with sympathetic eyes. "I'm sorry, Bastion. Is class full of tension for you?" the blue-haired midget asked with deep concern.

"It's okay," said Bastion. It's tense for reasons; you don't need to know about he thought. Syrus nodded meekly.

"She may be strong," said Jaden, "but I seriously learned nothing from her class. She is not fit to be a teacher." Hassleberry agreed with him quickly. Bastion wanted to defend her, but he didn't. He knew that his friends were right so disagreeing with them would be pointless.

"So what do you think of the new girl?" asked Chazz changing the subject rapidly. Bastion looked at him. Bastion pondered why the creepy guy adorned in the black trench coat, turtleneck, and pants cared about Meg. He could like her he thought looking at Chazz. No, that can't be it. That would be quite impossible. Chazz is too hormonal for that Bastion answered his own thoughts.

"How would we know that, soldier?" asked Hassleberry, "We never actually met her." Chazz shrugged casually not particularly caring what the answer was. It was simply, talking about Taniya disgusted him. She was too ugly and masculine for her taste.

"I think she's pretty," Syrus said blushing. They all looked at him and sighed. Of course, Syrus liked most pretty females or most females in general.

Atticus gave his opinion, "I agree with Syrus for once. She is damn sexy, but I don't think she's my type of girl."

"I don't know. I hope she can get her game on," said Jaden who was obviously looking forward to a great duel.

"Holy Fuck Jaden!" yelled Chazz, "Is that all you damn think about?" Jaden laughed at Chazz's outburst.

"Of course, Chazz, that's why I am here. I am here to duel, you silly head," said Jaden still laughing. Chazz rolled his eyes wondering what the ginger-head's problem was. Syrus coughed and looked back up at Bastion.

"What do you think of her?" asked Syrus. Bastion smiled and thought I wonder if I could explain the situation to him. I highly doubt it, but oh well. I can at least say something about Meg. "Well, tell us," said the pleading Syrus.

"She's a mystery to me," said Bastion. The rest of the guys exchanged glances in confusion. They didn't think that Bastion and Meg had met just a night before, but Bastion hoped they wouldn't figure it out soon or confront her about the situation.

Mew Kazurinu: That was a lame-o chapter, but oh well. I hope to get more done over spring break. Thanks for reading. Stayed tune for chapter 4.

Taniya: I am a music teacher! I am going to strangle you. Why?

Mew Kazurinu:…You'll see runs away from the scary amazonness
