Hello, and thank you for 9.3k+ reads and 345+ votes! Also, a special thanks to OMG_IM_CRAZY , honey_lemon3251 , and LemonGirly02 for voting! I'm going to do a small rant, which I seem to be doing a lot lately, but please bear with me. I know none of you probably read them but it makes me feel better. Anyways, I was doing the closing shift last night with the one coworker I literally cannot have a conversation with. He's so quiet all the time and I feel like I'm annoying him when I do try to talk with him, so needless to say it's always kind of awkward working with him. I have also seen him talking normally with all of our other coworkers, too, so I'm slightly convinced he hates me or something. Well, he does closing a lot but I haven't done it in at least 2 months, and I only did it because my other coworker needed someone to cover her shift, and quite a bit has changed for closing since then. I felt like I was literally doing nothing the whole time. Like, I helped some customers and did probably 90 percent of the dishes, but he did almost everything else. And he was technically supposed to get off an hour before me, but he ended up staying the whole time and I got off 15 minutes early. Then he wrote me down for having done a couple of things I didn't actually do and gave me the only dollar in the tip jar even though he did everything. I feel kind of guilty about it. And on top of that, about an hour ago I got next week's schedule and I only work two days!? I usually do three (4 this week because I covered one of my coworkers shifts) weekdays, but next week I'm on for one weekday and one weekend. I can't tell if my manager is trying to give me a break or punishing me. At least that gives me time to write a bunch. Especially since I haven't even started next week's chapter unless typing "Valentine's Day Time- Maehara 42" as the title in my notes counts. Well, I hope you enjoy this chapter :)

"Yes! An out-of-season research project for our assassination classroom: hijack the space station and steal their experimental data!" Korosensei exclaims a few days later. With the help of Ritsu we had identified the space station as being the holding site of what we were searching for. Now, all we have to do is break in and steal it. While it's not even on Earth. Easy, right?

"'The reentry capsule carrying the research data will splash down in the Pacific Ocean.'" Korosensei reads. "'The capsule will be transported to the lab unopened, to guard against the unlikely possibility of theft by the target super-organism.' Clever precautions indeed. I can't carry anything too heavy, so anything locked in a five-ton container is as good as unobtainable for me."

"Which is why we need them to show us while it's still in space... but does Japan really have the tech to launch a manned rocket?" Okano asks.

"At this point, we can handle that much." Korosensei reassures her. "My influence might have moved things along."

"Our plans are in place. Now to put them into action." Isogai says from the front of the room once we finally go back to our seats. "The rocket can only hold two people. Who wants to go?" He asks with a smile, thrusting his own hand in the air enthusiastically.

"Me!" All of the boys except Nagisa and Karma raise their hands. I roll my eyes. Isogai looks at them all sheepishly.

"Right..." He mutters.

"Oh, of course all the boys do." Nakamura muses.

"They're welcome to it, though. You couldn't pay me to do it." I say, shivering. There would be no professionals onboard, no one with extensive knowledge on how to operate it in case things go wrong, and the chances of death are too much for my liking.

"Its an unproven experimental vessel on its maiden voyage. Who still wants to go?" Korosensei asks. One by one, every hand goes down, proving my point. Well, except one. "Right..."
