"Class, i've got good news and bad news. What do you want?" Alfie asked as his class began to take their seats. Amelia sat down in her usual spot, "The bad news" She replied to her brother's question. Jing nodded as she took off her black backpack. "Well, Amelia, the good news is that today's history module is Pearl Harbour, and we all know what that means, It's class wars!" Alfie told his students, who were all quickly moving their desks out of the way, to leave room in the middle of the room.

"Ok, so it's December 7th, 1941. We're in Hawaii, a military port. The first thing we're gonna need is some Americans." Alfie exclaimed, taking costumes out of a box that was stored by his desk. "Andre, you're Ben Affleck. Joe, Josh Harnett. Rem Dogg, you're a tank." The began listing out the roles for the students.

"Next up, i'm going to need a nurse and a doctor. Amelia, you'll be my doctor." He says as he throws a doctor's costume to his sister, who happily put it on. "Where's my beckinsale?" He continued. "Please, sir, i'm great with cancer. I know all the words to beaches." Stephen Carmichael begged. Stephen was funny, he was a gay teenager who absolutely loved fashion, and his best friend Chantelle.

"All right, you can be beckinsale." Alfie gave in, passing the nurse hat over. "Now, finally, we require a member of the Japanese Imperial Air force." Alfie slowly walked behind Jing, tying the bandanna to her head, as she rolled her eyes. "The Emperor will be proud of you, my lotus flower."

"She's Chinese you muppet!" Rem Dogg corrected rudely. "I know... Okay, positions! It's kamikaze time." Alfie exclaimed, holding lots of pens in his hand. "Wait Alfie, what's the bad news?" Amelia asked.

Alfie sighed. "Um, you might, probably, almost definitely are all going to fail your mock exams." He shrugged. The whole class burst into anger. "What do you mean we're going to fail? I can't fail! This is the one year i actually WANTED to learn." Amelia tore off her doctor's costume.

"I know, but, it's complicated, alright? I didn't want to bore you with it. The important lesson here is for you to look for the positives in failure. Like for example, Amelia, remember grandad?" Amelia rolled her eyes, obviously remembering her late grandad who died two years ago. "Yes." She deadpanned. "He suffered failure. Lung failure. Which means i inherited a Volvo. So remember that. Always look for Volvo."

"So, it's a quiet morning in Pearl Harbour, but not in Tokyo." Joe stopped Alfie from talking, "Alfie, we can't fail. My dad will kill me!" Alfie sighed, "Don't be silly." "My dad'll kill you." Mitchell pointed to Alfie with a dirty look. "Well, I mean, i guess i could mark some of them." Alfie said, clearly scared of Mitchell's dad.

"Listen you mug! You need to mark all of them." Remm Dogg said, and Amelia nodded her head. "Yeah, you don't wanna see my dad when he's angry. He used to train in the same gym as David Haye." Mitchell informed his teacher. "And Sally Gunnell." Rem Dogg added.
