"Ughhhhhhhhh," Amy groans as she walks into the teacher lounge. "I don't wanna be here anymore."

"It's only the second day silly," Olivia giggles, her blue eyes glittering with amusement. "We're not going anywhere anytime soon."

"But I wanna be a prosecutor now!" Amy whines, slumping into a chair. She then hears whispers coming from the other teachers. Amy glances over. "Does anyone have a problem with that?"

"It's just that," one male speaks up. Amy could already tell that it's going to be something stupid. "You know, women are super emotional. Are you sure you can keep your emotions away from prosecuting someone? Wouldn't they get in the way?"

Silence falls over the lounge.

Amy gets up from her chair and slams the table in front of the male teacher with her hand. She puts her other hand on her hip and narrows her eyes.

"What's wrong with a woman being a prosecutor? You may say that emotions are a weakness but believe me, they are anything but that. Emotions will let you stand by your morals and hopefully help you not waver to whatever crap they're gonna bribe you with," Amy says. "Emotions let you understand the people and frankly, that's just as important when prosecuting people. So maybe a man being a prosecutor and your ideals of women being less is the problem."

"Preach sister, preach," Olivia flips her brown hair dramatically.

"Should I explain it again for your narrow-minded brain?" Amy smiles politely. "Oh wait, I don't have to give you the time of day." She turns around on her heel and walks out with her things.

"You're an idiot that's what!" One of the man's friends smacks the back of his head. "Honestly, did no one teach you anything about being sexist? 'Cause that's exactly what you're doing!"

Amy couldn't help but smile. At least some males on this planet are decent living beings. She couldn't help but wonder about her younger siblings. Amy didn't want them to deal with this because why should they?

They just need to move back home. This planet actually sucks. Like literally I'm gonna throw hands. If the guys acted like this I would murder them. The fact that someone is praised for supporting basic rights is sad. My poor younger siblings...

You can't remember? Your anger still transfers over to them. So I need to just not stay calm I guess?

Eh, this is weird.

I know right. Like you think controlling your anger is a good thing but nah.

Because apparently our anger went to the teens, which is why we feel calmer and they feel angrier.

Love that. Now which stuck up brats have we got today?

Amy walks into the gym. It's a decent size, mostly a combination of the basketball and volleyball court. She then remembers that there's practice for volleyball today as well.

At least Ava is there.

Amy looks over at all the freshmen walking around the gym. She blows the whistle and they start to jog. Amy watches them for a while, taking mental notes on who needs more help and who doesn't.

Good thing I can tell from just the way they all jog.

"Slowpokes! You all suck!" Some random cocky freshman taunts the more unfit kids.

"Rebecca, step aside," Amy calls out the freshman. The teenager shrugs and comes out of the jogging line. "Everyone you can go back to walking!"

"What is it, Ms. Burns?" Rebecca yawns.
