TOKYO, JAPAN

Thankfully, I was already in Mr. Yamamoto's class right when the bell rang. "Now," I heard Mr. Yamamoto shout. "Everybody except for Geffrey and Saiko along with their friends in a line!" I got up and formed a line with Vincent, Kyrie, Mei, and Jirou along with this blonde girl who looked like she came from America, another guy who looked to be her boyfriend, and a few other students too. We heard Mr. Yamamoto get something as he headed in front of us. We saw what he had in his hands now and gasped quietly in fear of what he could do to us. That's right! Mr. Yamamoto had a ruler in his hands! And it wasn't a small ruler, but a big fat ruler! He tapped it against his left hand and walked around looking at us. We were all pretty scared at that moment. "Do you see my favorite students over there?" We all nodded and I heard someone in the group gulp as Mr. Yamamoto turned around and looked at us. "Now, what do I do to students who are mean to my favorite students?" 

We all looked at each other with fear in our eyes before we looked back at Mr. Yamamoto and shook our heads. "Well," he said as he slapped the ruler into his left hand softly. "You're about to find out." He continued to walk around as he hovered over us. "He's more frightening than the principal than Matilda!" I heard the blonde girl say in a loud whisper. "Really?!" I heard the guy that was with her ask in a loud whisper. "This is more nightmare fuel than that!" We stood there in silence after he said that."I know that one of you... placed fake Death Notes into Geffrey's and Saiko's bags," Mr. Yamamoto continued. "And made them get arrested...whoever did this shall get a ruler spanking from me." Mr. Yamamoto slapped the ruler against his left hand again and some of us along with me flinched in fear without gasping. "And will be arrested by Chief Matsuda along with his partner, Commander Aizawa." 

Mr. Yamamoto stopped walking and looked at us. "Now, who is the evil villain...the mastermind...of the Death Notes revenge plot against my favorite students?!" None of us responded or stepped out of the group. "Anybody?!" he asked. We didn't respond or step out of the group either. He slapped the ruler against his left hand again and started walking again. "Miss Lee?" Mr. Yamamoto asked. I saw Mei shake her head in fear. "Mr. Arima?" he asked. I saw Jirou shake his head after he said that. "Miss Latham?" he asked. I saw the girl with blonde hair shake her head quickly. "No sir," she answered. He held the giant ruler towards her as if it was a sword. She gasped and placed her hands up as if someone was holding a gun. "Don't speak!" Mr. Yamamoto responded. "Just nod or shake your head, you got that?!" The girl nodded. "Alissa," said the guy who was right beside her. "Hey!" Mr. Yamamoto shouted as he pointed the ruler at the guy who was comforting his girlfriend who had the name, Alissa. "No PDA, Mr. Hikaru!" Mr. Yamamoto slapped his left shoulder with the ruler in a furious way. We all gasped as we saw Alissa's boyfriend groan in pain and fall to the ground. "Osuke!" Alissa shouted before he fell to the ground in pain. 

She bent down and caught Osuke before he fell to the ground. "Go ahead, little dumb Barbie girl from America!" Mr. Yamamoto shouted. "Go comfort your little Japanese boyfriend! Hopefully, you two will break up since you two are both completely different race-wise!" Alissa looked up at Mr. Yamamoto with an angry look on her face. "What is your problem, Mr. Yamamoto?" she asked. "Why did you hit Osuke with your ruler?" "I don't have a problem, Alissa," he answered. "You two need to break up and date your own kind from America and let Osuke date one of us too!" "Seriously?!" Osuke asked as he groaned in pain. "Why are you so racist towards everybody who isn't Japanese except for Geffrey James and his buddies?!" "That's your problem, young man!" Mr. Yamamoto answered. "Unbelievable," Alissa mumbled as he continued to glare at her. "Now," he said as he took his eyes off her. "Who framed my two favorite students with the fake Death Notes?" Mr. Yamamoto started walking in front of us. "Mr. Pierce?" he asked. Vincent shook his head. "Miss Seong?" he asked. Kyrie shook her head fastly and hugged Vincent tightly like she was hugging her boyfriend. Vincent then looked down with his eyes wide open and softly pushed Kyrie away.
