The last bell of the day rung signaling the end of classes. Students flooded into the halls from every class, everyone was in a rush to leave.

The zodiacs ended their day in a class on the opposite side of the school away from the dorms. It was an incredibly annoying walk.

That day the test results had been released. For the most part, no one was happy about the scores they got. Except for two of the signs.

"I actually did good guys. Can you believe it? Not only did I pass I got in the top ten scores," Gemini was ecstatic about his grade. He could always pass his tests but never once did he actually do exceptionally on any of them.

"I'm just glad I passed honestly," Libra said with a much calmer energy to her. She got an average score after all. There wasn't much to celebrate for her.

Capricorn was the other high score, but she didn't look nearly as happy as Gemini. Taurus noticed and confronted her about it. "Capricorn, why aren't you happy about getting in top ten with Gemini?" He asked her, slowing down to her pace. She was walking slower than everyone else, it was just enough to barely keep up.

"It was only a 90 out of 100 points. I normally pull off 95 and above. What's worse is I don't even know how I could improve!" Aries heard her and rolled his eyes. He mumbled something to himself which made Taurus glare daggers. Taurus himself only barely passed, doing slightly better than the bare minimum.

"Why don't you talk to the teacher about it then?"

"I did but she said she'll be helping us soon. She also told me to not take it so seriously."

"Don't worry Capri, I'll make some good food tonight to cheer you up, in fact I'll make everyone dinner," Taurus offered to everyone. This boosted everyone's mood.

"Taurus cooking is the best!" Cancer cheered. Her score was one of the abysmal ones. It was hard to cover up the sheer amount of emotion she felt about it.

Scorpio had noticed how Cancer looked down but hadn't said anything about it. With Taurus's cooking he knew she'd just forget about it anyways. Plus his score was only just passing so he wasn't in any mood to comfort.

After more walking Pisces noticed someone was missing. "Hey what happened with Virgo?"

"She's been in the nurse's office a lot," Capricorn answered, "She's been feeling really down and overwhelmed. She'll be okay though, the nurse is super nice."

"Oh my goodness! Has it really been that bad for her. I didn't even know." Pisces was now very worried about Virgo. He almost felt stupid for not knowing how Virgo felt. He made a promise to make a card for her later, it would take his mind off of his slightly above average grade.

Sagittarius took the spotlight now as she started very loudly complaining about the test. She was originally having a side conversation with Aquarius but something stirred her up.

"I cannot believe Leo and what he did on that test. He completely used me just so he could also get a good grade. Without me that jerk would've failed! Asquarius my friend, I'm gonna kill that boy one day." She shouted for all to hear. It not like Leo was around anyways, he was too busy going on a date with Pheceda, which he skipped class to go to.

"No don't kill him that's rude," Aquarius said playfully pulling a fake sad face. "It was still a good plan on his part. It also kinda benefited you both." Aquarius had barely passed the test.

"I'm gonna need you to not do that actually. You're meant to side with me here!"

"Don't worry Saggy I'll help you kill him!" Aries butted his way into the conversion. He was a little to enthusiastic with his offer.
