Chapter 58: Sea anemones in bloom!

A/N: Hello, dear readers! I was able to do a surprise update since I managed to take a breather today, so enjoy the chapter~!

----------------------

Once the school bell rings at the end of class, the four of us bolt out of the classroom and run towards the bulletin board where the exam scores were posted. By the time we got there, we had to make our way through the crowd of students to finally see the bulletin board.

Personally, I didn't really bother with the rankings system as much as the guys do right now. Though, as long as Grim and I can make it to the next semester, along with the others, I'm happy with just that.

"Is my name in the top 50!?" asks Grim eagerly before zooming over to the board.

"I've gotta be in the top 50 if I got an average of above 90, right!?" Ace soon joins Grim in the search for his name.

I continue to watch them search for their scores. My curiosity unfolds further about their desperation to be on the board.

"Top 10, 20...I-I'm not there! 48, 49, 50th...Nope, my name isn't there at all!" cries Grim in panic.

"M-my name isn't there either..." sighs Deuce in disappointment.

"Hooold up. There's a list of the total scores each top achiever got across all subjects. The top thirty scored perfect marks in all subjects—500 points!" exclaims Ace in shock.

"A p-perfect score!?" the three of us yelp in unison.

"Wait. Is it even possible for 30 people to get a perfect score in all subjects?" I utter out in shock at the possibility.

"M-more importantly...since I didn't make it into the top fifty, that counts as a breach of contract!" shouts Grim in worry.

Deuce and Ace look at Grim as relation starts forming on their faces. While I give them another puzzling look. What does Grim mean by "breaking contract? I thought before I hear Ace say. "Wait, "contract"? Oh no. Grim, did you...?"

"Judging by the look on your face, Ace, don't tell me you also-" said Deuce uneasily before a bright light shone around their heads. I watch in shock as sea anemones suddenly sprout out of their heads.

"Ffgna!? Wh-what the hell is this!? There's an anemone coming out of my head!" exclaims Grim.

"G-Grim, you made a contract with him too!? You coward!" said Deuce, while Ace snaps to notice that Deuce and Grim were the same, "Yeah, whatever, Deuce. You're just as guilty, keepin' your friends close and your anemones closer over there!"

"I'll just pull this thing out...Owowow, I can't get it off!" cries Grim as he stops yanking at the anemone on his head.

"What's going on with you guys? Why do you suddenly have those on your heads!?" I urge for an answer.

"I came over to see what all the fuss is about, but it's just you guys. What're you doing?" asks a familiar voice before realizing that it was Jack, not far from me as he stands beside us and glances at the anemone trio. However, it would seem they weren't the only ones; several more students had anemones on their heads.

"Jack, did you make a contract too? Wait a second... You don't have an anemone!?" gasps Deuce in surprise.

"Despite your bad boy looks. You actually take your studies seriously!?" said Ace in disbelief.

"Huh? What are you talking about? And what's that on your head?" asks Jack while I giggle slightly as he watches Grim's anemone curiously.

"Well, you see...Ffgna!? What now!?" shouts Grim in shock as he stops mid-sentence as his anemone suddenly tugs in a direction. "This dang anemone's yanking my head!"
