Chapter 28: Dissection

The gods returned to Goode High School when the Winter Break had finally ended. Activities and assignments were given at full blast, making it almost impossible for anyone to catch up without a few sleepless nights. Though there was one activity that became rather interesting to the sixteen year old population.

"I still don't get the use of having to do it" Poseidon said in class where Allison sat beside him.

"It's all part of Biology" She said "Frog Dissection is actually quite interesting. If not disgusting"

"But why?" Poseidon asked. They were in Biology class. He wondered why they would need to dissect some small green amphibians, where as in the beginning in Greece and Rome it is not advisable.

"Well apparently it's a unique way to learn about the human anatomy" Allison said in an imitation of the Biology teacher.

"I don't see how this is useful"

"Oh it is, if you want to be a vet or a surgeon or a doctor" Allison said "I heard they even have to dissect cats and turtles."

Poseidon just stared at her "Why and how do you know that?"

"You forget my mom's a doctor. She even told me on how she killed the turtle."

"That's just a bit morbid"

"Well its better than the Aztecs" Allison said "I'd rather have the dissection than to watch another movie of the Aztec civilization. Now that is disturbing."

"Don't we have that video today?"

"Yes, I am thinking of bailing history class."

"Good luck with that"

"Well see you tomorrow."

"Yeah don't forget the stuff for Mr. Frog"

"Of course not"

Zeus and Hades had Biology together and were partnered together. They were in their station with the tray. Zeus went to get their frog from the box with the teacher. He returned with a disgusted look on his face.

"It's cold and slimy"

"It's cold blooded" Hades said "And it's not slime"

"Then what the hell do you think it is?"

"Mucus" Hades said plainly

"WHAT!" Zeus dropped the frog.

"MIKE!" Hades exclaimed as the small green amphibian started to jump away from the two.

"That's disgusting" Zeus said wiping his hands on his shirt.

"Dude! Stop complaining and help me!" Hades said as he crouches down and tried to catch one of half a dozen jumping frogs.

"No way! That's disgusting!" Zeus complained but after missing another frog, he glares at Zeus.

Zeus groaned as he went to chase the frog. It goes beneath the table just as one of the two was at its tail. Hades groaned as his head hits the table.

"How the hell does a frog outsmart the god of death" Zeus muttered.

"You try it then" Hades said standing up. He is slightly taller than Zeus. Which makes him slightly intimidating to the younger god.

"Fine" they continued to chase the frog until Hades had manage to corner the small animal. "Mike!"

"Finally!" Zeus said. But sadly neither the Frog nor Zeus met the princess this time. The frog was…facefrogged. He gave a slightly unmanly scream as Hades was laughing his head off.

"Hey bro, I didn't know you were a princess"

"Shut up"

After Hades had slightly sobered he sighed "Preparing for the activity is harder than the activity itself"

"Agreed"

In Poseidon's case it was a little less disasterous. He was paired with Allison who got the frog from the teacher. She held it in one of its legs.

"Why are you holding it like that?"

"Cuz I am hoping it will die before we have to dissect it."

"You do know that we need it alive to get a good grade right?"

"Aww man" She frowned then held it properly in the other hand. Then holding him upside down.

"Now what are you doing?"

She ignored him as she looks at the frog in the eye, looking crazy cross-eyed. "Hello, Freddie. Are you ready to die for the sake of science."

"Did you expect it to answer?" Poseidon asked through laughter.

"No, but that would be cool if that happened" Allison said smiling holding the frog a few inches from Poseidon's face "Say Hi to Freddie, Mark."

"Hi to Freddie, Mark" Poseidon stoicly as he slightly pushed her hand and the frog's red beady eyes from his face "You named it Freddie?"

"Yeah" Allison said "Freddie the Frog. After those before him, Frank and Francine"

"And you got that where?"

"My friends for back home, their a few years older so they had biology first. Theo named his Francine and Tina named hers Frank. And this is Freddie. Say hi"

"Hi" Poseidon said "Come on let's get this over with"

It took the pair time for one of them to start the dissection. They were both disturbed at the whole process of the dissection. Or at least Poseidon was, pitying the small amphibian. Once in a while there was a small splatter of…

"Damn." There was blood near Allison's eyelid.

"Mark."

"Yeah?"

"Would you please give me a hand and help me look for the tissue somewhere and get the blood OFF MY EYES!"

"Oh right" once she can finally see. They continued the experiment.

"How are you supposed to know which one is which?" Poseidon said staring at the picture of the frog to the one on their station. "Can I copy of yours?"

"It's in my bag"

Poseidon went to look for the worksheet of his partner when he found a can of powdered milk. Which doesn't weigh like a can of powdered milk.

"What's this for?"

"Formalin" Allison unpinned the poor frog from the board. "Did you get the worksheet?"

"Uh…." Poseidon rummaged through dozens of papers in the bag till he found a familiar piece of paper. "Yeah I did"

"You just copy of mine, while I get Freddie out of his misery."

She opened the can of undrinkable milk and dropped Freddie inside. "What are you?"

She closed the lid and started to shake it around. She looked at Poseidon. "Wanna have a go?"

"Uh… no thanks?"

"Suit yourself" then went back to shaking the can.

"That's getting him out of his misery?"

"It is for the frog"

"You're weird"

"I know" she said smiling and returning to shaking the can

The gods returned to their apartment feeling tired.

"That was one weird day" Hades said

"Yes. Well I'm gonna take a bath" Zeus then strutted into the bathroom.

"What happened to him?"

"Oh, he made kissy faces with a frog"

"Seriously?" Poseidon couldn't stop laughing

"I heard that!" Zeus said his head coming out of the bathroom door then before slamming it shut.

"Yeah" Hades said smirking. "Who's cleaning yours?"

"Ally, she said that she was going to give him a funeral. An epitaph, coffin, the whole thing"

"That is weird"

"I said that" Poseidon said "Who is going to do yours?"

"Me most probably" Hades said "Drama king is too lazy to do anything!" he said the last part loudy for Zeus to hear

"I heard that!"

"Your supposed to"

"Do you want some help?" Poseidon asked

"Sure why not. I placed him in Zeus's bag"

"And why did you do that?" Poseidon asked

Hades shrugged "It won't fit in mine"

The pair opened the bag and smirked at what they found. What happened next consisted of a lot of water, screaming and croaking. One which only the gods of the apartment would never divulge into the world.

HEHE here it is :D

Half of this stuff actually happened to me and or my friend, Forgetful Me. Frank is my frog from Biology with my best friends..him and Frank II when we lost him. So…anyway til the next update.
