Nothing could ever be more terrifying than a foreign language test, or so I thought. You have to think about every little detail, accent, pronounciation, grammar, vocab, spelling and so much more! Why did everything have to be so complicated?

I sat in room 4 with 006, feeling completely hollow. Something felt missing, other than my face, it felt like a tiny piece of my stomach and heart were missing. When I thought of that, I started seeing stomachs and hearts scattered everywhere, but I knew it wasn't real. I was starting to get used to all the horrors.

We left to go for a short walk, we did this on occasion, usually wordlessly, waiting for the other to say good news. There never was any. We never talked about anything negative, we couldn't handle any more of that stuff.

"Do you have any escape ideas?" I asked hopefully.

"Through conversation I have learned more about Thea Bechtel... She's totally the type of person to agree to blow this place up and burn it to the ground without a hint of remorse. If we were to find her and explain how it would be for the greater good, which fits her morals, she would totally agree! I've heard she has had lots of fantasies about blowing things up, and she's actually a pyromaniac!"

"So we just have to find her!?"

"Yes, but how to find her..." There were 700 divines here along with plenty of slaves and staff. Neither of us knew what she looked like either, we would just have to get really lucky.

Next class, Thea Bechtel? Naught.

At least this time I was a teaching assistant instead of the teacher, that was way easier.

"And then- uddujubuddudathebe..." Huh? What the hell was this teacher droning on about?

"Huhbubuhhroomischabs..." This teacher was pretty much speaking gibberish! What the hell!? I looked at all the divines, all hope in their faces gone. With a teacher this useless, there was no way they could pass...

"Excuse me Ms M, do you mind speaking a little louder? I don't think the divines can hear you"

"Ah of course... hgfudubbududu..." It was futile. She sucked, how on earth was she a teacher?

All of these poor divines were going to fail language, I just hoped that none of them were punished for what was clearly the teachers fault. They did their best, the teacher failed them.
