Flashback: Wildlife And Nature Studies Lesson, 7 years ago

"Kyan, would you stop throwing your paper everywhere? I'm trying to give a lesson here!" shouted Ubercorn. But 8-year-old Kyan wouldn't listen. He made yet another paper plane and launched it at the whiteboard, where it crumpled up and fell to the ground.

"There's my homework, Ubercorn!" he cried, making everyone else start roaring with laughter. Well, apart from one.

Xuli just rolled her eyes thinking Honestly, Kyan. Can't you stop for one second?

"If you don't stop now, then I won't tell you about the next natural disaster type!"

The entire classroom fell silent. Kyan stopped his paper trashing. All eyes were fixed on the unicorn. "Thank you." he said.

"So, you guys already know about the hurricane and tornado, so today I'm gonna tell you about the tsunami.

A big "ooooh" rose from the children at the desks, all wanting to hear about what this disaster was. And why it sounded so much like salami.

"Let me give you a little more insight into it with some funky facts."

"Uh, hey Ubercorn?"  the tallest student asked. "I have a question."

"Sure. Go ahead, cadet."

"I thought only the Go Jetters were given funky facts."

"Well, that changes, cause today, you'll all get to hear some!"

The class cheered as the music came on.

#Funky Facts! Funky Facts!

#The Academy is where it's at

#With Ubercorn's Funky Top Three!

#3!

A tsunami is a big wave made in the middle of the ocean. It can reach as high as skyscrapers!

#2!

A tsunami is really powerful and can destroy almost anything in its path: houses, trees, cars, and even factories! Yikes!

#1!

A tsunami is caused by earthquakes in the middle of an ocean. The shaking earth makes the sea wobble and the waves get bigger and bigger.

#Funky Facts!

The children all stared at Ubercorn in amazement. They didn't even know waves could get as big as the Academy Domes, let alone skyscrapers. As Ubercorn started talking about the damage caused by a tsunami under the sea as well as on land, Xuli started having a nightmare about one of them coming to the Academy.

It was huge. Taller than the cliff itself. She was in JetPad, watching the wave gain on home.

Then she saw a cadet about 2 years younger than her, screaming for help. He was running around, trying to climb up the cliff to get in JetPad.

Ubercorn flew down in the Vroomster and managed to pick him up. But before they were clear, the tsunami came and swept them both away.

"Xuli, are you listening?"

She snapped awake to find Ubercorn staring at her in concern, while the rest of the class just murmured amongst themselves, wondering what was going to happen.

"Y-yeah, Ubercorn, I-I-I was just- uh, thinking about the tsunami thing." she blurted, laughing nervously.

"Huh." muttered Ubercorn before returning to his desk and continuing his lesson.
