Epics of Noche 1, Anchor

EON CH 36

CREATE LESSONS.

1774, SEPTEMBER 23rd FRIDAY 7:07am.

Noche looked down at her cell phone and read the text message.

"OH SHIT!" She shouted.

Noche ran down the hall and turned the corner to the classroom door. Losing her footing, she tumbled into the door and shattered it. Shards of brown and a glint of yellow could be seen as the wood and doorknob scattered across the floor. The teacher, General Rust, stared at her... Visibly confused and flabbergasted.

"... Why... Jhust why." He said.

He turned to Mary, who straightened in her seat.

"Mish Lhittle, could thou repair thy door?"

"Sure thing, Mr Rust." She flashed a sinister smile at Noche, "Someone's got to fix Noche's mistakes."

"In broad daylight?!" Noche gasped.

Mary stood up and a collection of prismatic energy began to form the shape of a door. A new wooden door took the place of the previous one in an instant. An alarm went off and Mary nearly jumped.

"Sorry..." Mary said, "Medicine."

"Itsh quite fine." Rust said, "Do you need to be excuhsed?"

"Just for a moment."

Mary picked up a pumpkin sling bag and walked past Noche. She gave Mary a look, who returned it right back; but neither spoke.

"Halright clash," Rust said, "Now that it seemsh everyone ish here-"

"Mary isn't here!" Noche shouted, as she made her way to her seat.

"Mish Little hash already been marked ash present..." Rust said, "Let ush begin roll call."

"Alice Epoch."

The girl with purple hair and yellow horns raised her hand.

"Noche L Grim".

"Present, and not late"

"Elliot Cherries."

"Present and totally late."

"Varen Fisher"

"I'm Fish-Here."

Varen nearly snorted from his own pun.

"Hectare Abraham"

"Here"

A few minutes later Mary walked back into the room, placed her bag down, and took a seat at her desk.

"Stupendoush, we are prepared to commensh." He said, "Ash you all know, today ish our last day of clash."

Rust walked around the desk and faced the class.

"The Crosh-Entrance Exam begins the following Monday, 10am. I do not believe I need to remind anyone that failing will caush one to shtay ash a recruit." Rust said, "However, to be on the shafe shide of things, today we will have a mini review of everything we've shtudied thish quarter."

Rust picked up a remote, aimed it at the projector, and pushed a button. Nothing happened. He tapped the remote, tried a different button, and then checked the batteries.

"Newfangled who hah." He mumbled.

Finally, he got the projector to turn on. A slideshow presentation was waiting for them. There was a picture of a row of dominos with a poorly edited virus ball replacing all the dots.
