Chapter 22 A (very) Shocking Reaction

Wendy yelped as she fell to the floor.

Will nudged the diode gingerly then huffs with slight impatience. Alyss puts an arm around him gently, "Not working?"

Will sighed, "It's not blinking. The instructions say it going to blink and light up." While gesturing to the light, "It's only turning on."

Alyss looks skeptically at the board, "I can see...it is on."

Terry walks by and then stops. "Bro, you...wait WHAT?!"

Toby looks up wildly, "...I'm not sleeping! I was just thinking deeply! Not sleeping!"

Rebecca looks at him and whispered to Wendy, "Weirdo."

"I'm not a weirdo!" Toby shouts.

The teacher coughs as he walks into the classroom, "Alright class, bring it down a bit."

Terry shook his head, "I don't know how you did it, but you short-circuited the 555 timer IC..."

Alyss helps him, "Will."

He looks at her with a big shock, not expecting someone like her would talk to her. Mr. Eforghwechlak (Forge-we-chak) who was in the neighboring classroom walks in, "Fred, mind I borrow a.... wow seems like this class is lively as usual." Seeing Toby in a heated debate of not being a weirdo.

Will remarked, "At least he's not sleepy anymore."

Shayna plops down next to him, "He doesn't take insults well."

Raising an eyebrow, "Really? I'd never have guessed that..."

She then smacks him on the back really hard laughing, "Of course not! It's his sleepy-reaction that he gets every time..." Will shifted forward at the sudden push knocking over some wires he was working with.

Surprisingly that make a big spark which then spooked the two girls in midst of a conversation which they both fell over. Still left over from the sleepy-Toby effect, he shouted in shock which Alyss comments, "There's another thing you didn't know about him Will...he's over dramatic..."

Because of the sudden shout in the middle of his arguing sentence, it scared Rebecca and Wendy who both grasped each other in surprise which knocked over a container of water by coincidence it happened to sit right there beside the rest of the wires which were live. (Meaning having electricity in them). Ross ran in "Yo guys! I forgot my pet turtle and its water container. Any of you guys..."

The water spilled all over the place and it touched the breaker that had some wires sticking out which it touched the spilt water. Everyone visibly saw the electrical rays run across the water and 'attacked' the breaker. It then exploded into sparks which everyone screamed or shouted in fear, didn't matter which because it was loud.

Smoke began to pour out from the breaker.

Everyone stared at the spectacle of the room. First of all was the massive shock, secondly was the amount of mess it had caused. Third was the unbelievable fact it was all from a heavy smack at the back of the shoulder.

A rules committee teacher sponsor poked his head into the room, "Now kids, this is why you should keep your hands to yourself...-" he was cut off by the bellow of the teacher, "Oh shut up will you Mark?"

Shayna looked with widened eyes and her hand and at Will.

Mr. Corwell also entered the room, "I thought I heard a familiar sound. Will, what did you do this time?"

Will looked at him with a cold stare, "This time was this woman's fault!"

"Shayna?" he asked with a light tone of surprise. "What did you do? Smack him?"

Ross turned to the science teacher, "Actually you weren't quite-" Then the teacher was drowned out by a cry.

"NOOOOOOOO! TURTLEEEEEEE!" Ross rushed over to the spot where the container which glass shards were scattered across the floor.

Toby narrowed his eyes, "Who names their turtle, Turtle?"

"I DOOO!" He wails.

Toby did a weak cheer, "Yay...long live the Turtle...."

"So wait, Shayna. You managed to do all this from a smack of a hand? What are you? One punch man?" The science teacher asked with obvious peaks of astonishment.

A student at the back puts down his manga and spoke, "Technically it would be One punch woman....since she's a girl...."

Everyone glared at him, "Alright alright. I'm back to reading."

Suddenly there was a loud sound coming from outside. Everyone gathered and peered out the window.

One of the major power lines cracked and sparkled, and then the line snapped and whipped around flailing to the ground. Followed after that was the power outage of the whole school.

There was an awful silence in the room. Shayna asked, "Wait. I couldn't have caused that...could I?"

The teacher sighed loudly, "This breaker was connected directly to outside..."

The science teacher laughs loudly, "Nice job Will! You really outdone yourself this time."

"I thought I said it wasn't me!"

Athena whispered in the silence. "Rest in peace powerline, you have been dominated by the Shocking Shayna."

Everyone began to laugh then suddenly another cry was heard from behind. Ross was crying with a smile. "There you are Turtle! YOU'RE ALIVE!"

"Gorlog, what kind of turtle that survives an electrical shock? I thought electricity are deadly." Alyss said.

Ross smiles happily at everyone, "One of those few moments when you manage to escape the container is a good one!"

Wendy grimaced, "Wait that thing escaped...into...was around...then that hard thing I stepped on earlier which I slipped was..."

Ross looked at her with a shocked look. "YOU STEPPED ON TURTLE?"

"I DIDN'T MEAN TO!" She shouted back.

Principal Terrance walked into the room, "Lively class as ever Mr. Corwell."

"Not mine. His."

The teacher stared the principal, "How'd you know it was my class?"

"Doesn't take much for me to figure it out for a principal like me." She said.

Shayna puts a hand over her face, "What kind of class is this. We're back to the shouting match again..."

Ooo

It took 2 hours before the electricity was back up again and during that time the whole school was in utter darkness while having the backup generators one which only powered the necessary things.

Everyone opened the windows and worked under the light of the sun, thankfully enough there was sun predicted to be around for the week.

As soon as got home, Will collapsed on the big bed. After lying there for a few minutes, a bit muffled he said, "I can never get used to this big bed of this room."

Daniela laughs at the door, "Really now?"

Alyss drops in and said, "The ones at the castle are around the same size Will. You and Halt just never accept to join in with us."

Will looks at her, "Not my problem. We like our cabins."

Alyss rolled her eyes, when Will wasn't looking, she runs and jumps on to him. "Attack!"

"ooof!" Will gasps, "What are you doing?"

Alyss grins, "I'm attacking you. If I was a genovesan, you'd be dead by now."

Will raised an eyebrow in defiance, "Oh yeah? Take this!" Swinging his arms back with a pillow in his hand which hit her square into the face.

"OH you'll pay for that!" Alyss screeched, grabbing another pillow and hit Will with it while he laughed. "It'll take a lot more than that to take me down!"

Alyss glares at him and pins him down which he retaliated trying to get an upper hand. Suddenly they both fell off the edge of the bed. Alyss groaned, "Will...your heavy you know?"

Will complained, "I thought the bed was bigger than that..."

He opened his eyes and stared right into mesmerising grey eyes of Alyss. She blushed deeply while Will did so.

They heard a squeak at the entrance

Daniela slowly closed the door, "Heh. Heh. Heh. I'll leave you two....to your thing."

"WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?"

Heyy!

Now now, I'm not sure if the breaker COULD have that much of an impact on a power line outside of the school...but ...there may or may not have been a rocket-testing club firing a defected rocket which hit the power line... who knows? Definitely was a SHOCKING reaction for everyone...no pun intended there :)

You'll never know.

I won't tell you. :D

Laters! Hope you enjoyed!

~Pulse out!

Oh yeah. Mr. Eforghwechlak (Forge-we-chak)...i may or may also not have randomly typed on the keyboard...

Long Live the Turtle!
