!!I DO NOT OWN THE SECRET SATURDAYS!!

Zak Goes To Middle School

Chapter 5, Math Has Surprises!

Aidan, Wadi, Noah, and I ran through the hall racing to Math class. Other students covered our few so we wouldn't get caught by any patroling teachers. We skidded to a halt in the pod and then looked which direction Math Class would be. All the other students I could here were saying it was outside I signaled them to follow me and we headed to the portable. It was white and had steps so we could reach the door. I climbed the steps and Wadi, Aidan followed me. I could tell the two girls were nervous, Noah seemed just fine. We all got spoke to by a couple of other 7th Grade students and they said that the math teahcer was the harshest but the second coolest of them all. Well not as harsh as Mr. Philips but still harsh. I entered through the door then sat in the second row from the front. Noah sat beside me, Aidan and Wadi sat at the two desk next to ours. The desk were in three rows and two pairings. Noah and me were on the left side but if the teacher was facing us it would be right side. Aidan and Wadi were in the middle row, in the middle of the classroom. The teacher wasn't there yet so I thought we were early. I looked around the classroom. It was about the size of a usual classroom inside and it had the teachers desk in front of me with a lot of stuff which I guess was Mr. Thomas's. The wasn't anything on thbe walls besides a stack of shelves and there was only one cabinet and on the shevles were math books and reading books and other kinds of books. In the back of the classroom is where the cabinet was and a book cabinet too but with no doors. Other kids starting entering th classroom and I looked away from the door to Noah. I started talking ot him about nothing important just to pass the time. For me I was lucky Natalie wasn't in this class with me. We started to talk about my Uncle Doyle and my pets though I made sure not to reveal anything. We laughed together a bit until a tall man walked into the classroom. I shut my mouth and turned to face the front of the classroom.

"Good morning class." The teacher said in a deep Russian accent.

I popped my head down trying to cover my white streak. I know that voice anywhere. It was Van Rook. Or should I say Rooky. I sloghtly looked up at him when he was in the front of the classroom.

"I am Mr. Thomas. I hope you can all enjoy math even when I'm here 'cause well, I'm here." He left a bit to himself while no one responded to his jokes.

I snickered quietly. Van Rook wasn't funny but the look everyone else had was. Dumbfounded and spaced. I watched as Rooky grabbed a ruler and smacked it on the white board.

"Pay attention! When I come by you tell me your name, first and last." He began to walk to the row on his left from his point of view and went down the rows.

There was no one I was familier with. He walked to the middle row getting Aidan's and Wadi's name. I finally then noticed that Jeremy was in this class when he said his name to Rooky. Squeky then glared at me when he noticed I was there. I smirked and remembered our fight. Amusing. Van Rook came to our row next and got the people in front of us there names. Dillon and Cody. He came to us next and after Noah said his name I raised my head slowly from my arms which covered my white streak, "Zak Saturday." I said barely audible.

"Louder boy." Rooky said.

I smiled mischeviously and looked up at him surprising him, "Zak Saturday." He silently gasped and then moved on, I slightly put my foot out and it made him loose his balance but not fall. The second he looked over to me my foor was laready under my desk and I was looking at him like I was inoccent. He pointed two of his fingers to his eyes and then pointed them at me siganling he wouldn't trust me and he would be watching me. Pfft. I don't trust him. He almost killed me when he trhew me in that train! Well that was Argost plan but he still went through with it! Doesn't he have any mercy for kids!? When he was down getting everyone's name he went up the front of the class and began to explain what everything was and was meant to be in the room. We still had forty minutes left until class was over. I couldn't believe that only took twenty minutes to explain! He pulled down something in front of the white board and turned on a moniter and put a piece of paper under the light camera so it would show in front of all of us on the board thing. As he showed a bunch of math problems I already knew the answer too since my dad was a scientist and eallt with math all the time he showed me what was what and what goes where and what kind of problem it was. I think he shouldn't have taught it to someone was was seven, people would think I'm wierd. Well I am wierd, being Kur and fighting a mad television host and my parents being Secret Scientist. Not normal, just wierd. Rooky saw me day dreaming and not really paying attention so he smiled and snapped my attention to him.

"Whats the answer to this problem?" He pointed to the problem that everyone was trying to figure out.

I yawned and answered him, I could do mental math real well. Rooky frowned at me and then scowled, his attneiotn then drawned to his class. I thought for a moment and began to day dream again, I was just lucky we didn't have any homework and we didn't have to write the problem now. I imagined how fun my brothers and sister were having wihtout me, and how if the Secret Scientist found out about me they would try and freeze me, and how much evil I could rein down on the world. I could imagine my powers taking control over me, or maybe I would just become evil without the influence of my powers. Everything around me in ruins or on fire, cryptids attacking humans, and I, the whole source of it. To my unoticed deamor my eyes started glowing firey orange around my eyes and a small tinting amount of it from my hands. Noah started shaking me and calling my name but it seemed as though I couldn't hear him. By this time everyone had their eyes on me. Everyone gasped but Wadi and Noah, Aidan just a little. It seemed as though several minutes passed by until Rooky smashed the giant ruler on my head. I snapped out of my daze making my eyes stop glowing. I had a bruise on my head for sure and I was beginning to get crowded by everyone who got out of there seats. I hid my head but they still kept talking to me wanting an explaination or how to teach that to them or how could I possibly do that. I got frustrated with them and concentrated my powers, I let them burst out and everyone got pushed back several feet. Everyone, now scared, besides Noah, Aidan, and Wadi, sat down trying to keep away from me as possible. Noah was still sitting in his seat 'cause my powers didn't effect him since it wasn't meant for him also the same for Wadi and Aidan. I put my hand on my head and groaned then put it my head on the desk. My eyes were half lidded but I still looked up at the clock. 2:30. It was accually time to go? Yes! I stood up and everyone else raced out of class before the four of us could.

"Hey Saturday boy!" Rooky called to me before I left.

"What Rooky?" I asked picking up my backback and putting my binder and math book inside.

"Don't play that stunt again."

"Pfft. You can make sure of that Rooky."

"Stop calling me 'Rooky'!" He shouted.

I scoffed. I left my back pack in the back of the room, since it was last period and I could leave stright when I got out of class I decided to bring my back pack. So I had to ride my bus, first one to come and first one to go. I ran through the school yards passing other people, trees, jumping over benches and sometimes people if they were small enough, some bushes and then I finally skidded to a halt at where my bus was. People were laready loading on so I went to the back of the line. None of my friends were on my bus so I sat alone in the front row where I sat this morning. None of the other kids liked the front except for the good and quiet ones. I sighed as I sat there but it something invisible and it growled. I gasped, surprised. It flashed it's invisible field one time so I could see who it was. Komodo, my brother. That must have been the reason why Doyle came to school. Not to torture me in Science class by being their number one test subject, but to drop off Komodo so he could ride on the bus with me. I smiled at the still invisible komodo dragon and sat by the window with him on my lap. The bus driver began to take us home.

Aw! Happy ending! I hope you all enjoyed this! And Van Rook being a teacher is a pretty good idea, don't you think? It makes you wonder what will hapen next in math. Don't ask me why hes there its to much of a plot spoiler. Well byebye! :D
