Chương 3: A bad case of Ed
Another day for the E-Class, only this time they weren't in the classroom. They were outside this time on the sports field, standing in the order that would be their seating order in the classroom. Wearing the school's designated gym uniforms: Blue and light blue sweaters and blue for the boys, and blue shorts with black leggings for the girl.
Eddy had his blue sweater unzipped, showing his white shirt underneath. Double D had his completely closed. Same as Eric, only he had his sleeves slightly rolled up.
However, Ed was only wearing a tank-top and grey underwear.
"One! Two! Three! Four! Five! Six! Seven! Eight!" The class chanted, as they swung their Anti-Sensei knives with each number they shouted, almost in perfect sync with each other.
"Ah, the sounds of a choreographed exercised regiment echoing across the field on a golden afternoon," said Korosensei, wearing an oversized white T-shirt that had a label that said his name on it, and with a red baseball hat on his head. He was twisting and turning a flower between his fingers. "How peaceful."
Standing next to him was Karasuma, the man from the government and the class's new P.E. teacher. The two of them were standing in front of the kids, watching them, while the man was instructing them. "Swing your knives through each strike without hesitation!" He commanded. "No matter how you stand, don't lose your balance!"
Ed stopped for a moment to think, before smiling. He then stood on one foot like a ballerina. However, he proved to be a little top-heavy and fell over.
Karasuma sighed in exasperation, still getting used to the big Ed's stupidity. He then turned to Korosensei and said, "You're in the way here, pal. Physical Ed—"
"What?" Ed called out from where he was on the ground.
"He wasn't talking to you, Ed," Eric told him.
Karasuma then continue. "P.E. is my department now."
"But... But I'm lonely," complained Korosensei.
"Find something else to do then, like I didn't know," he pointed his thumb over his shoulder to a sandbox a few feet away behind them, "there's a sandbox. Have a field day."
Korosensei was soon in the sandbox, creating a sand mound while crying.
"You don't have to be so cruel," he whined. "The kids liked it better when I was their gym coach, anyhow."
The students all stopped to talk to the yellow teacher. "Yeah, not so much," said Sugaya. "No offense or anything, it's just that when it comes to exercise, you..."
"Set the bar kind of high," Sugino finished for him.
"And need we remind you what happened to Ed yesterday?" questioned Eric, with Double D nodding.
—(flashback)—
Yesterday, Korosensei was standing in front of three white lines that were drawn on the ground. "Alright, let's start with a simple jumping side-to-side maneuver," he said. "Here I'll show you how it's done."
He suddenly used his super-speed to move side to side.
"ARE YOU KIDDING ME!?" Everyone shouted.
"Once you got the rhythm," he then had a red string with him and started doing cat's cradle with it, "Throw some cat's cradle into the mix."
"WOW, HE'S SERIOUSLY GOOD!" Everyone shouted.
Korosensei then stopped and moved away to the side of the white lines. He then gestured to it and said, "Who wants to go first?"
"I do! I do!" Ed exclaimed as he ran over to the white lines. He then grabbed one of his untied shoelaces and pulled it out of the shoe, destroying said shoe in the process. Getting ready, he then started.
Only he wasn't jumping side-to-side, he was shuffling his feet side-to-side at an unbelievable rate, to the point that his legs were like a blurring fan. Ed laughed as he then attempted to make a cat's cradle, but ended up tying the rope around his head, body, and arms.
Then, to everyone's shock, Ed's shuffling ended up digging into the ground. Sending the strong Ed-boy drilling down into the ground.
Everyone stared at the square-like hole in complete and total shock at what had just happened. "Ed," Double D asked.
—(flashback ends)—
"And by the time we got him out, most of his clothes were burnt off," Exclaimed Eddy, gesturing to the almost naked Ed.
"Ed may be a freak of nature," said Rio with a smirk, "but there's no way we're going to be able to keep up with that."
"We're human beings, you know. I for one think that our teacher should be one, too" said Sugino in an exasperated tone. This, however, only seemed to shock Korosensei for a shock, before he was depressed even more as he just began stacking rocks now, instead of working in the sand.
"Right! Back to work, people!" exclaimed Karasuma to the rest of the class.
"Excuse me, Mr. Karasuma, sir," Double D spoke up, panting and sweating more than another one else. Why did he have to lack so much physical strength?
"I don't understand the reason for this sort of physical application practice. Especially with the fact that we're doing said application in front of the prime target" said Double D as he pointed at Korosensei with the knife.
"Whether studying or assassinating, it's the same principle," Karasuma told him. "Drill the basics and they'll serve you well."
'He's right,' Eric thought to himself. 'Especially since the four of us have never held a knife before coming here.'
"Eric, Eddy. Step up." The mention of his name brought the fractured-eye boy out of his thoughts before and his friend did as they were told and step forward to stand a few feet in front of the man. "I want you to attack with those knives."
"Eh... as a team," asked Eric, nervous.
"Are you sure," Eddy asked.
"The blades are harmless," Karasuma explained.
"They weren't designed to injure humans." He then loosened his tie as he looked at the two.
"Tell you what. Manage to hit me, and you go home for the day" offered Karasuma to the two.
This instantly got Eddy motivated, and he grinned. "One hit coming right up," he exclaimed and thrust his knife at Karasuma's head.
However, the gym teacher dodged it without a struggle. Stepping to the side to let Eddy stumble in his movement. Karasuma was about to say something when he noticed Eric coming at him from the side. He thrust the blade at him, just like the shorter Ed-boy.
Karasuma stepped to the side again, but to his almost surprise, Eric's attack changed quickly. The boy had retracted his arm back to his body, at speeds that Karasuma didn't expect for him to perform, and then swung the knife at him.
'He's fast.' Karasuma thought but was able to push the arm away before the knife could get too close.
Backing away to let Eddy try and attack, Eric took a moment to think about what just happened. It wasn't so much that he was fast, but it was almost like when he tried to save Nagisa when he had that grenade.
Once Eddy's slashing attack failed to hit him, he and Eric attack him together. With Eddy first trying to stab him, to which Karasuma just pushed his arm aside.
Then Eric to the chance to attack him. And then it happened. The same thing that happened when he tried to save Nagisa.
Time seemed to slow down for him.
It didn't feel like much, but it was slow enough for Eric to take in the moment. That's how he was able to see that toy grenade around Nagisa's neck and for his instincts to make him react fast enough to grab the grenade.
And now this reaction time was acting up again. Letting him see himself and Karasuma moving a little slower than normal. Letting Eric see that Karasuma was using his hand to backhand his hand away.
Time went back to normal and Eric stopped attacking, just like Eddy. But while Eddy was time to figure out how he was able to block all of his, Eric was trying to figure out why time was slowing down for him. It wasn't superpowers, that's for sure.
"With this low level of skill," Karasuma said, "even I can handle you amateurs in my sleep. Especially with your knifework."
"Dammit," Eddy hissed before he and Eric rushed at Karasuma again. Again, time slowed down for Eric, but it came too late, as the man grabbed their arms when they tried to stab him before the fractured-eye boy could bring his arm back.
Karasuma then flipped the boys on their backs, slamming them hard against the ground. Letting go of their arms, he stood over them. "If you can't land a hit against a guy like me, you ain't got a chance against a target whose speed is Mach 20," he told them, letting them know the harsh reality of things. The man then looked over at where Korosensei was. "See, we've been sparing for half a minute and look."
The two boys and the other students turned their head. They saw that Korosensei was now wearing a green kimono with a darker green top over it, sitting on a purple covering with tea and everything to make tea in Japan, with an extremely well-done sandcastle of an Asian palace next to him.
"He's had time to change clothes, make tea, and build a sand model of Osaka Castle."
'Oh yes,' Eric thought with a deadpan expression, 'he's really angry.'
Karasuma then offered him and Eddy each a hand, which they accepted.
"That's why we drill," he said, pulling the two boys up on their feet. "If everyone in the class can reach a level where they can hit me, then you may have a shot." He then readjusted his tie. "Do as I tell you as offend as I tell you to do it, then you'll become assassins." He faced the other students. "This isn't recess, kids. For now on, Gym Class will be about the basics. Stabbing, correct use of firearms, everything you need to succeed."
That least we'll be getting something useful from this.
"Alright, that's enough for today."
Everyone then bowed their heads.
Eric sighed and looked up at the sky. What was that anyway? Those slow moments? At first, when he tried to grab the grenade, he thought that it was in an in the moment kind of thing. But here it was again.
"Are you two okay?" Double D asked them as he and Ed went to them.
"Yeah, it wasn't that bad," Eddy said, trying not to have his friends worry about him. Even though his back was killing him.
"Yeah, we're fine," Eric said. "It's just..."
"Just what, Eric," asked Ed.
"...Nothing. I'll tell you guys later."
Yada, a few feet away from the Eds and Eric, joined up with Hinano and Rinka, a girl with green eyes and orange-brown hair that she wore in two low pigtails.
"This is so intense," said Yada, looking at Karasuma as he stood next to Korosensei. "He's kinda scary but cool at the same time."
Korosensei heard this and flinched, before starting to tremble.
"I know," said Hinano. "He wants you to hurt him, but he'll pat you on the head if you do it right."
"He's a good coach," Rinka complemented.
Korosensei pulled out a handkerchief and bit on it, as he trembled and sweated.
"I know what this is," he growled, before looking at Karasuma, who put on his black suit. "You're trying to take my place as their favorite teacher!"
"Don't be absurd," he said, with his back facing the tentacle teacher. "I'm hereby assignment. Like it or not, as part of your contract, and I quote: 'All new hires regarding E-Class are solely the prerogative on this school."
He quickly turned around and threw an Anti-Sensei knife at Korosensei. Korosensei quickly used Mach 20 to grab it with the handkerchief.
"And, either way, this is not a popularity contest. It's my job. I'm here to help them kill you, pal."
"Could you not call me that," asked Korosensei as he took off the hat that went with the kimono and put on his usual hat. "I prefer the name my students gave me. So that's Korosensei to you" as he gave Karasuma a glare.
As they were talking, the Eds and Eric were watching them from afar. "Man, this is gonna suck hard," complained Eddy, rubbing his sore back. It was bad enough that they had to kill the fastest thing alive, but now they had a hardcore gym teacher.
"Yeah, tell me about it." The four heard Sugino say, which they turned towards the directions of him and saw he and Nagisa approach them. "And what's worst is that there's a quiz at 6."
"Ah, shit. Now I really wished we won against Karasuma," whined Eddy. The other laughed a little.
Eric stopped laughing after a moment, but then he noticed something out of the corner of his eye. Prompting him to turn his head to look at what it was.
"Yeah," Nagisa said after laughing, "but what are you gonna do?"
"Hey," said Eric, catching everyone's attention, seeing him stare at something. The fractured-eye boy then pointed at the thing he was looking at. "Who's at that?"
They all looked at where he was pointing to. The Eds and Sugino were confused, but when Nagisa saw who it was, he gasped.
Standing on top of the hill that the schoolhouse was placed on and hold was juice box was a teenage boy. The boy's skin was pale, his short hair was red, slender body, and his eyes were pale, sharp that was colored either mercury or goldish. Unlike the other students, he wore a black blazer.
"Yo, Nagisa," the mysterious kid said innocently. "It's been a while" as he finished with a smile.

{Seishun... Satsubatsuron!}
(The opening starts with the crescent moon as it gradually change to Korosensei's head. Then Ed, Double D, Eddy and Eric appeared upside down with their names shown as they fall and tried to attack Korosensei as he panicked before dust picks up around them as the title appeared.)
Welcome Back, Mr. ED!
{Kuchi ni dasu no wa jikkō suru toki}
{Sore ga kakkoī koto shitteru sa}
(The scene start with Eric waking up in bed as he gets up and gets ready for school. As he walk out of his room, Eddy and Double D were at the living room while the latter was preparing breakfast. He look around only to see that Ed's not up yet so he went to his room to wake him up, only to find that he was not here and saw his window was open.)
{TARGET, sagashite bokura wa satsubatsu}
{Omoi wa mayou mayoedo susumu}
{Migite to migiashi issho ni de sōda}
(Eric panicked and ran out of his room to tell Eddy and Double D that Ed's gone. Eddy groaned in frustration while Double D worried about him, Eric ran back in to his room and came out with his uniform on and a toothbrush in his mouth. Double D quickly pack small breakfast along with their lunches before they head out to find Ed.)

Double D look at the time and finds that they are going to be late for school, Eric and Double D panicked while Eddy groaned as Ed woke up from Eric's slapping before he was pulled by Eric and ran out the door along with Eddy and Double D.)
{Yari kittenaikara yarikirenai}
{Yari kittenaikara yarikirenai}
{Genjō daha wo chīsana koe de yagate zekkyō shitaku naru}
(The Eds and Eric, with Ed now in his uniform, rushing to the train station but they missed the train. As Eric and Double D mope in depression, Eddy yelled at Ed before he had an idea as he grabbed Ed the the other two. They're now at a park as they sitting in a box with a tree that is cartoonishly pulled down like rubber below them while Ed was holding the tree down by sinking his teeth in another tree. Double D was calculating their trajectory while Eddy was getting impatient and Eric was starting to regret it. Double D conclude that they would land in the field behind the building but isn't sure about it. Eddy isn't surprised as he signals Ed to let go as they're launch in the air heading to towards school.)
{Yari kittenaikara yarikirenai (Yareba dekiru sa)}
{Yari kittenaikara yarikirenai (Kitto dekiru sa)}
(Eddy, Double D and Eric screamed while Ed laugh as they flew through the sky. Then Eric saw Korosensei flying by as he pulled out his anti-sensei knife and tries to kill him but no avail as Korosensei sped up ahead of them.)

Korosensei arrives through the window and begun roll call, Yada asked him if he seen the Eds and Eric this morning making Rio teased her about it as she blushed in embarrassment. Korosensei answers as the Eds and Eric crashed through the roof and landed in the floor next to Korosensei, surprising the students.)
{Saredo seishun wa mirai he GO!}
{Sā sā sā! Seishun satsubatsuron!}
(Ed recoiled from the floor as he pulled the other three out with him as the class aside from Korosensei look at them with white eyes and jaws dropped. Korosensei tells them to take their seats as Ed lets go of them and went to their designated desk thus begins class.)

EDventure #3 — "A bad case of Ed!"
"Karma?" said Nagisa, attracting the attention of the Eds and Eric. "You're back?"
"You know this person," Double D asked.
"And what do you mean by back," questioned Eric.
This Karma person then looked up and noticed Korosensei. And then he surprised the four American students starting to walk towards him. "Woah, that must be the Korosensei I've heard about," he said, walking past the Eds and Eric, Nagisa, and Sugino, while everyone else stared at him. "Amazing. He really does look like an octopus."
Something wasn't right about this Karma character, but I was able to put my finger on it at that moment. However, I was going to get my answer soon.
As Karma stopped in front of Korosensei, the teacher said, "Ah, you must be Karma Akabane. I understand that your suspension ends today. Welcome back."
"Suspension," Double D asked.
"With that being said," Korosensei continued before his head turned purple and an X appeared on it, "tardiness is a no-no."
Karma chuckled for a moment. "It's kind of tricky getting back into the swing of things," he said. "Oh, and feel free to call me by my first name." The redhead then reached out his hand to Korosensei. Offering a handshake. "Anyway, it's nice to meet you."
"Same here. Let's have a fun and interesting year." Korosensei reached his tentacle out to the hand and grabbed it.
But as soon as Karma's fingers gripped the tentacle hand, the tentacles popped and were destroyed.
This shocked Korosensei for a brief moment. Karma then suddenly dropped his juice box and an Anti-Sensei blade came out of his left sleeve.
He then swiped it at the teacher, but Korosensei quickly dodged it and retreated a few feet away.
"Huh, you are fast, aren't you," said Karma, seeming to be impressed and pleased. He then looked at the hand he used to destroy the tentacle with, looking at the multiple green strips pieces that were attached to his paw and the underside of his fingers. "And these knives really do work against you. I just cut one into small piece and stuck them on my hand. Pretty elementary stuff, chief. I'm disappointed that that's all it took to catch you by surprise. But good jump, if you don't like coming off like a frayed cat." He then started walking towards him. "What are you, scared of me?"
"I don't believe it," said Eddy, as he and every other person on the field stared at them in shock. "He got him."
"And he did it with such ease," Double D said, before Korosensei's arm reformed.
"I've heard that they call you 'Korosensei' because you're said to be unkillable," Karma said, before stopping half a foot in front of him, making the tentacle creature flinch and move back an inch. Karma then leaned forward and turned his head to look up at the teacher, as any and all sense of charm was replaced with a sadistic glee on his face.
"Oh come on. There's no way you could be this big of a pushover."
This got Korosensei's face to turn red and veins to throb.
Kayano joined up with the Eds, Eric, and Nagisa. "Hey, Nagisa," she said. "What kind of person is this Karma guy? I've joined E-Class late, so I don't know him."
"Is he your boyfriend," Ed asked with a smile, which almost made Eddy burst out into laughter if it wasn't for him covering his mouth.
Nagisa on the other hand, look annoyed, as the dumb Ed always mixed up his gender. He couldn't blame him that much, but it was no getting old. "I'm still a boy Ed, and I like girls. And... well. He and I were in the same class our first and second year," he explained. "He was violent. So violent they finally expelled him and sent him here. That's another reason this class gets a back rap because they send you here when they didn't know what else to do with you."
The Eds and Eric and Kayano looked back at Korosensei and Karma, watching as the new student was now walking away.
"But, with the current situation we're now in, he might just end up a star student."
"What do you mean," asked Eddy, watching as Karma twirled his knife around with his fingers.
"Weapons and blood are his passion," Nagisa told them. "Trust me, if anyone can kill our teacher, its Karma."
'And after he finished explaining who Karma Akabane was, I remember only one thing going through my head.'
Eric looked at his friends, seeing the looks of anxiousness and surprise they had.
'And by the look of it, I knew that Ed, Double D, and Eddy were thinking the same thing.
We were screwed.'

Later on in Class 3-E, as the students started taking the quiz that Sugino was talking about, the only sounds in the classroom were squishing and bopping sounds repeatedly being made. This was being made by Korosensei's fist, as he faced the wall and softly punched it over and over again.
These sounds, however, greatly distracted the students, who were taking the quiz.
"Okay, he's been at this for a while now," Eric whispered, "but what's he doing?"
"I don't know," Yada whispered to him. "I think he's punching the wall."
"I think our teacher's odd behavior derives from our new companion's success in destroying his tentacle," Double D explained. "In doing so, caused him to hit a nerve in Korosensei. Explaining why he's hitting the wall, despite not doing anything to it."
Korosensei's weakness #4: His punches are weak.
Eddy gritted his teeth as he tried to ignore the sounds and work on his test before his anger couldn't be contained anymore. "WILL YOU KNOCK IT OFF ALREADY?" He shouted, startling Korosensei and the other students. "WE'RE TRYING TO TAKE A QUIZ HERE, OCTO-HEAD!"
"M-My apologies," Korosensei said as he drooped his body down a bit.
Meanwhile, in the back of the room, Teraska, Yoshida, and Muramatsu were talking to Karma, who was placed in the back with them. With one other desk in between him and Teraska. "Yo, Karma," the bigger student said to him, "don't come crying to us when you get that monster mad~"
"It would've been better if you stayed home with your head under a pillow," said Muramatsu.
However, Karma was unfazed and smiled at them. "Of course he's mad," he said. "Who wouldn't be if someone made an attempt on their life? Unless it was a would-be assassin failed and pissed himself."
That got Teraska mad and he hit his fist on the table. "I didn't piss myself," he exclaimed, glaring at the redhead. "You looking for a fight, bastard?!"
"Quiet, please!" Korosensei scolded them from the front of the class. "No noise during a quiz!"
'You're one to talk' thought Eric.
"Sorry, Korosensei," said Karma with fake innocence. "No worries, I've already finished." He then pulled out a pink gelato. "I'm just going to eat this gelato if that's okay."
"Not so fast! No eating in class!" He then paused for a moment to stare at the gelato for a moment, see it was rather familiar to him.
Once it hit him, he freaked out and said "Hey! That's the gelato I brought back from Italy yesterday!"
Everyone else sighed in exasperation. 'Oh no. Here we go!'
Karma took a lick of it before saying, "Sorry. My bad. I just found it refrigerating in the faculty room."
"This won't do young man," Korosensei exclaimed. "I flew to the coldest layer of the stratosphere just to keep that delicious treat from melting!"
"Heeeh... So what will you do," he asked, taking another link of the gelato. "Hit me?"
"Absolutely not! I'll just simply have it back and finish what's left of it!" Korosensei passed between Eric's and Double D's row, with the former having a hand to his face. All Eric wanted was to take a quiz, but no his teacher was even too stupid enough to walk into an obvious trap.
And a trap it was, as Korosensei felt one of his tentacle feet get destroyed, making him stop and look down. He the shock to find Anti-Sensei BB pellets all over the floor in front of him. "Anti-Me BBs," he exclaimed before Karma pulled out his M1911 Airsoft pistol and started shooting at him, forcing the teacher to dodge left and right.
Karma chuckled for a moment. "Wow, that's twice in one day, teach," he mocked him. The new student then approached him with his gun aimed at the yellow creature. "I'm gonna keep pulling the same old tricks. Class will get interrupted, our grades will slip." Karma stopped when he the barrel of the gun was touching Korosensei. "Let's be straight up though." He lowered the gun. "If you want this to stop, you can just kill me as well as my parents."
Karma then stabbed the gelato onto Korosensei's uniform. "But from that moment on, no one will view you as a teacher anymore." He dropped the gelato onto the teacher's tentacles. "You'll just be a murderous monster." He then spoke in a dark tone. "Or you can peace with all of this, and accept that I'll be the one to kill you."
"Hey, pal!" Eric exclaimed, looking over his shoulder at the redhead, getting his and Korosensei's attention. "No disrespect, but if you're planning on disrupting class for your little sick games, then can you do it on your own time? Some of us actually want to pass."
"Game," Karma asked innocently, before walking pass Korosensei towards him. "What, you don't like games, or don't you want to kill him? You just want to do boring schoolwork?"
He stopped at the left side of his and leaned towards him, which don't scare or make Eric flinch. "My, you're a scary-looking one, aren't you?" Eric only scowled at him, making Karma smile.
"The teeth are bad, but with that eye? Must be pretty bad for you in the normal world, huh? Always getting stares and people being afraid to walk up to you" teased Karma in a mean tone.
Eric didn't say anything and just stared at him, trying to keep his cool with the punk. The Eds, on the other hand, stared at Karma with uncertainty, wondering what they should do.
"So why not tell us." He pointed to his fractured eye, having no real shame in the buttons he's pushing with Eric. "What really happened to that eye of yours?"
Before he or anyone knew it, Eric grabbed Karma's finger in a crushing grip.
Karma was a little surprised by this but kept his cool and smile. He tried to pull his finger away, but to his further surprise, he couldn't get it free. He then attempted to do it again, but this time he felt Eric's grip tightening.
All around them the other students were watching with worried expressions, especially the Ed's. Yada looked as worried as them, knowing that he was very emotional about his eye. But this is the first time he's done something like this. She was scared what he would do. She hoped he wouldn't do anything irrational.
"You should know that there are certain things where it's okay to ask about if you're genuine about it," Eric told him with a calm tone that was hiding anger. "But you should also know that it's not okay to tease and mock people about those certain things."
"Oh I'm sorry," Karma said, his smile twitching. "I must have forgotten my manners."
"Mr. Akabane!" Both Karma and Eric looked towards Double D, who was standing up from his desk and glaring at the red-haired boy. "I admit your skills as an efficient killer are to be recognized. However, I will not stand for this sort of behavior towards my fellow classmate, thank you," he scolded him.
Eric let go of Karma's finger, allowing him to shrug his shoulders. "Like I said, I forgot my manners," he said with fake innocence. "However, I thought it wasn't allowed for students to wear hats."
Double D's brave domineer drop into nervousness. "Huh?"
"I'm afraid he's right, Double D," said Korosensei. "I'm going to have to ask you to remove your hat."
Double D instinctively grabbed the edge of his hat and pulled it down a little, trying to keep it from coming off. "I-I-I don't feel comfortable with taking off my hat sir," he said fearfully. "I immediately request that you allow me to—" he was interrupted when Karma grabbed the top of his hat.
"Oh, don't be a big baby," he said, before pulling on it. But Double D used every ounce of his strength to keep it on.
"NO! PLEASE STOP!"
"Uh, Karma," said Eric, feeling worried for his friend and what would happen if Karma successfully pulled the hat off, "I really think you shouldn't do that."
"KARMA, PLEASE!" Double D yelled as everyone watched as Karma was now stretching the hat beyond any limit they thought it would go. "IF YOU DON'T STOP THIS INSTANT, I'LL—I'LL DO SOMETHING YOU WOULD LIKE!"
But in the end, his strength was no match for Karma's, and the hat came off with a
POP
Everyone had no words to say as a tumbleweed rolled passed the schoolhouse outside.
Silence filled the classroom, as everyone except the Eds, Eric, Karma, and Korosensei, turned completely white with comical white whites and hanging jaws, as they stared in shock and horror at Double D's head.
"... Oh, my," whispered Korosensei.
"Oh shit," Eric said before facepalming himself in annoyance. "There goes our popularity."
Double D hid his head inside his uniform like a turtle, with only his face being seen in the neck of the blazer and dress shirt. He looked fearfully at the other students. "If any of you say one word to anyone I'll never speak to you all again!"
Eddy, on the other hand, covered his eyes overdramatically. "Oh, the horror! The inhumanity!"
Double D glared at him and pointed. "You stop that!" But Eddy only giggled.
"Does it hurt, Double D," asked Ed.
"Oh shush!" He snacked his hat away from Karma, who wasn't as overdramatic as the other and still had his colors, was pretty much petrified with his eyes staring at Double D's head. "I ask for a normal for once in my life and this is what I get," he asked himself while spraying the inside of his hat with disinfectant.
Eric looked at Karma and whispered, "This is the part where you walk away."
"Uh...yeah." He surprisingly agreed, before throwing his quiz at Korosensei, then walking out of the room without saying a word. Still trying to process what he just saw.
After watching him leave, Eric turned his head back to the other students, who were still frozen in pale shock.
"WHAT ARE YOU ALL LOOKING AT?" He roared at them, getting the students to break their line of sight from Double D and go back to work.
Letting out a sigh, Eric looked back at the closed door to the room and stared at it for a moment. Yada noticed this from behind him and felt a little worried about him. "You okay," she asked.
Eric nodded. "Yeah," he said and went back working.
'I'm sorry you had to see that, but as you may have guessed, my eye is a touchy subject. Same with Double D and his hat.
However, after talking to Nagisa, we found out that's the kind of guy Karma is. He knew my eye wasn't a button I wanted people to push and he did it anyway. And he saw it with Double D and his hat. But I don't think he was prepared to see what was under it.
But more importantly, his incredible quick-wits drew a line Korosensei couldn't cross without changing the way we all saw him. He's going to keep using the same cheap tactic against him.
Karma was intelligent. He can manipulate a person. He's ice-cold. Nagisa even said that he'll see what makes you tick and how to exploit it.
If that was the case, our chances of killing Korosensei now looked remote.'
000000000000000000
After class was let out, Korosensei rocketed through the sky at Mach 20.
"Honestly, that boy," he ranted, holding on to a clipboard that had Karma's quiz on it, showing a 100% on it. "Thanks to him, I'll have to go buy another gelato. He's smart but difficult. I mustn't let him bait me. Mustn't give him the satisfaction of losing my temper and killing him. I am the teacher, and he is the student. Yes indeed. I'll have to find a way to resolve this matter."
And with that, he accelerated away.
0000000000000000
"Time slowed down," Nagisa asked Eric with astonishment. He and the Eds and Eric were walking through the train station to go home. The Eds and Eric were almost glad to find out that Nagisa was going on the same train as they.
"That's what it seemed like," Eric said. He'd told them about the weird phenomena's what happened during his and Eddy's spare with Karasuma. "But it wasn't like I was moving faster than him, it was more like my reaction, brain and instincts were reading his movements faster than he could move. That's also why I was able to try and grab that toy grenade that day."
"Talk about sweet," said Eddy with a grin.
"I'm also impressed," Double D said before thinking for a moment. "However, I am curious about your unusual ability."
"Oh! Oh! I know!" Ed exclaimed as he grabbed Eric by the arm and turned him around. He then picked him up with a big happy grin. "You're a superhero!" He then used one arm to hug him close to his left side, while using his other arm to help him narrate "It was then in you desperate effort to save your new friend, you called upon the powers within you to slow time down and grab the grenade! But you were unable to and—"
Eric pushed himself away from Ed. "I don't have superpowers, Ed," he exclaimed, freeing himself from the big Eds grasp. "I'm sure that there is a reason for it."
"Y-Yeah," Nagisa said, still getting used to how weird they could be with each other. "Anyways, let's get home." They were about to continue on their way with they heard two voices talking to each other. With one of them mentioning Nagisa's name.
"Are you kidding me, is that actually Nagisa," asked the fatter one. "And is he hanging out with those trophy wreckers?" Eric looked at them, seeing that they were looking at them with arrogant expression.
"I'm sorry, but is there something you want to say to me and my friends," he demanded, as the Eds turned to look at them. Nagisa was a little surprised that the four of them were actually defending him, even against two upperclassmen.
"You better watch your tone with us, American," said the one with glasses on. "You're the ones that destroyed the school's trophy case. We tend to take that personally."
"What part of it was an accident don't you understand, four-eyes?" exclaimed Eddy, glaring at them.
"And even with all the apologies, it still wasn't enough to keep you out of where you belong," said the fat one said as he walked up to them with his nose up. He then looked at Eric and smirk. "And I can see why they'd send you to E-Class with that Akabane-psycho, freak."
"Psycho, huh?" The two students froze with terrified expressions when a hand placed on each of their shoulders. The familiar voice was Karma's, who was standing behind them with a smile on his face, as he leaned his head forward so that it was behind the two students.
"Is that some way to talk to people? If you want, I could teach the two of you about how you respect others. But...it's going to require a finger from each of you."
The two students only broke away from his hands in panic, before screaming as they ran away.
The sight of them running away was enough to make Eddy and Ed laugh. "Oh, man!" giggled the short Ed-Boy, wiping a tear from his eye. "Talk about putting them in their place, huh?"
"What can I say," asked Karma, shrugging with fake innocence, "I'm can be quite the convincer. But it wasn't like I was going to hurt them or anything. I'm not going to risk another suspension with the once in a lifetime deal they're giving me in E-Class."
He then looked at Nagisa and smiled. "Hey Nagisa, you don't mind if I ask you a few questions?"
"Uh—yeah, sure," Nagisa said.
Karma then turned to Eric. "Hey, sorry about before, but I was also hoping you'd help out here too" said Karma as his questioning smile never left his face.
Eric stared at him suspiciously for a second before shrugging his shoulders. "Alright," he said before pointing at him. "But I don't want any funny business."
"Sure, sure," Karma told them before they all continued their walk. "Word is that you four have been keeping notes on the octopus."
"That's Nagisa's department," Double D said. "We on the hand help plan and keep a record of all assassination attempts."
"All to make sure he doesn't...uh..." Ed stopped and thought for a second. "What does he do?"
"Probably octopus things," said Eddy.
"Does he hate it when you call him that," asked Karma.
"I think it's more of the opposite," Nagisa said.
"Indeed," said Double D as he began to recall the moments that made it seem like Korosensei liked the word Octopus.
"When he sketches himself, it's always as an octopus. And it seems as though our teacher uses an octopus avatar for his player character in a video game. Not to mention he does this strange thing in the sandbox, to where he digs himself into the sand but leaves his face out in the open" informed Double D.
"It's almost like a running one-line gag," Eric commented. "His own trademark, even."
"I see," Karma said, placing a hand on his chin. "That's good. Oh, I just thought of something really good."
"I know that look, Karma, said Nagisa. "You're cooking up something really dark."
"If that's the case, then you have to share it with the rest of us." Eric took a step towards him, trying to see if he could reason with the troubled teen. "Like it or not, everyone in E-Class is in this assassination. You probably know about our Master Plan, so it's important that we all contribute to Korosensei's death."
"I don't think you truly understand what I'm getting from all of them." Karma turned to face them. "I'm happy, y'know. I was into this when I thought he was just a monster, but with him being an unexpectedly upstanding teacher..."
A train zoomed by behind him, as the setting sun shined on one side of his body.
This seemed to transform him into someone else.
Someone whose eyes and smile showed the evil and disregard for life they truly had in them. "...I get to finally kill a proper teacher. Since the previous one went and died on his own accord."
The Eds and Eric looked at him with increased worry and freight. Karma wasn't just a troubled teen. The guy was a loose cannon.
Ed divided behind Eddy, looking over his shoulder to talk to his friend. "Karma's dark side makes my armpits sweat, Eddy," he said, making Eddy push him away with disgust.
"What doesn't?" as he too was secretly sweating.
'This guy was beyond crazy. You could see it in his eyes. I just hope what ever he plans to do doesn't hurt me, the Eds, or anyone.'
00000000000000000
The next morning came, and school was about to begin.
Korosensei was making his way down the hallway to his class. His head was hanging low as he looked miserably at a little purse that had yens in it "My gelato funds," he whimpered, "gone. Pinched out from right under my nose. And with payday an eternity away. I guess I'll have to make my own now." He continued on to his class.
Meanwhile, in the very same classroom, Eric felt his heart pounding. Pounding with awaiting anticipation. And the same could be with the quite students of E-Class.
When the door did open, Korosensei entered and said, "Good morning, boys and girls.
No one said a thing. All they did was keep their heads down. Even Ed, who'd greet him with either a hello or some random word, didn't say anything.
"Hm? Why the long faces," he asked, turning his head to his desk. "Did something—"
He stopped himself right here when he looked at his desk and saw a dead octopus with a knife stabbed in between its eyes.
"Ah, sorry~," said Karma form his seat. "Yeah, totally thought it was you. Innocent mistake. I stabbed it so I suppose I should get rid of it?"
Korosensei sighed in irk before grabbing the octopus. "Yes, you should," he told him, before making his way to him.
Eric, however, knew that that's what Karma wanted him to do. For Korosensei to go towards him willingly to try and either stab or shoot him. He had used the same tactic before yesterday, and it was successful.
However, there was another reason why they had the Master Plan: Korosensei didn't fall for the same tricks.
His theory was proven correct when Korosensei stop, raised a few of his tentacle, and surprising turns their ends into drills. Catching Karma off guard.
Korosensei speeded out of the room and came back in. Much to their shock, he held in his arms the same missile the Self-Defense Force shot at him, while also holding up a bag of supplies.
"Observe, Karma my boy! The power of drill tentacles and the firepower of this SAAM missile," he exclaimed before the thrusters ignited.
Karma looked at him a little stunned.
"If you think I'm going to let you get away with murder," he said, as his tentacle went to work cooking, mixing, and cutting food that he got out of the bag and was cooking over the fire coming out of the thruster, "think again."
Karma then felt something stuffed in his mouth. He quickly spits it out.
Korosensei was holding up a small, curved, wooden tray that had more of what he put in the teen's mouth, which was small food balls that were steaming. "Don't you know that breakfast is the most important meal of the day," he asked.
"Your complexion tells me that you haven't eaten, so please—" he pocked one of the food balls with a drill tentacle and held it out to Karma. "—help yourself to some of this takoyaki. I insist."
His response from Karma was a soft growl.
"You see, I'm a giver. I take care of a lot of things. From rushed, dull blades, would-be assassins, troubled teens." He then opened his mouth, releasing steam and showing that he had the takoyaki in it.
"Every attempt on my life is an opportunity for me to play my part. So by all means, keep at it. And by the end of the day, I will polish your body and spirit until they shine." The teacher then turned to the other students. "Who wants this takoyaki?"
"I DO! I DO!" Ed yelled, causing many to stare at him.
Korosensei extended his arm to give him the takoyaki. "Here you go, Ed," he said, but Eric quickly looked panicked. Ed was about to grab one when his fractured-eye friend the takoyaki.
"Wait!" He exclaimed, surprising everyone for a moment. "Does this have any eel?"
"Ah, no," Korosensei said, questioning more than telling.
Eric sighed in relief. "Okay, go ahead," he told Ed.
Ed grinned and grabbed the wooden tray from Korosensei and stuffed it in his mouth, shocking everyone.
He then pulled out the tray, showing it was clear of the takoyaki but was dripping with his saliva. A moment later and steam was coming out of his ears. "Tasty," he said.
Rio then asked Eddy, "What happens if he eats eel?"
"You don't wanna know."
'And so the attempts continued.'
000000000000000
During 1st period, Mathematics, Korosensei was writing out...well, mathematics.
"No matter what I do, I end up with this number leftover! You are plagued by such worried of indivisibility," he told them. "But don't worry, I have prepared an excellent method!"
Curious, Eric looked over his shoulder to look at Karma. He saw that the redhead wasn't taking notes like everyone else was. Leaning back in his chair, Karma stared at Korosensei with a smile. He pulled his gun out from his blazer.
"Once I've written it on the blackboard, let's all try to solve one together..."
Karma pointed the gun at Korosensei. However, before he could pull the trigger, Korosensei's arm was a blur as it grabbed the weapon out of his hand.
"Karma," he said, looking over his shoulder while holding up the gun he snatched, "it takes an Anti-Me far to reach its mark."
Karma was surprised to notice he wasn't holding the gun anymore but was even more shocked when he saw his nails had nail art on them.
"I had time on my hands," Korosensei held up the beauty supplies used, as Karma growled, "hope you don't mind if I prettify yours."
Eddy chuckled at him, while Eric sighed.
'But no matter how much he tried...'
0000000000000000000
'...Korosensei was one step ahead of him.'
It was the 4th period now, and the class was now doing home economics. Each student was to pair up in a group of two and had to wear an apron and bandana on their heads.
At one table, Eric and Yoko were working on their soup. Same with Double D and Eddy to their right, and Ed and Fuwa, a girl with short, purplish-brown hair styled in a bob cut and purplish-black eyes, on their left.
"Okay, it looks like we're going to have to add some spice to the soup," Yada said to him, pointing it out to him, as Eric leaned over to look for himself. They both agreed that he'd cook the soup, while she told him the directions from the cookbook.
"Got it!" He grabbed the spice shaker and shook some spice into the pot. Afterward, Eric took a spoon they were using to taste and dipped it into the soup. Bringing it out, he sips it while holding up his other hand in a fancy way. Smacking his lips, Eric smiled. "Eyup! That'll do."
"You sure know how to cook," she said with a smile.
"Someone had to," he said. "Especially with the number of scams we went through every week."
"Indeed. And whatever scams involved food, we used anything we could get our hands-on," Double D scowled at Eddy, who glared back at him, "instead of getting actual food supplies."
"Hey, we used real food in some of those scams," Eddy retorted.
"Like when made the world's biggest pancake," Ed exclaimed cheerfully.
"Really?" Fuwa asked in question but also shock.
"Ed, for the last time, we never made that pancake," Eric told him.
"And your point is?" Ed asked in a snobby way as he shook spices into his and Fuwa's soup. Afterward, he tasted said soup, smacked his lips and went "Mhmm...Hmm..." as he then handed the soup to his partner.
"Taste fine to me!" Fuwa took the spoon and tried it for herself. She then looked puzzled.
A second later and Korosensei came around to their table, wearing his apron and bandana. "How are things looking over here, Fuwa, Ed," he asked them.
"I'm not totally sure," she admitted. "It's got a bizarre tangy flavor to it for some reason."
"Maybe you need to mango with it," Ed suggested, pulling out a mango fruit
"Let me see." Korosensei tasted the soup with a spoon.
Karma then walked to them. "Probably be easier if you start it from scratch," he said. "Why not toss it out." He suddenly hit his fist on the handle of the pot causing the soup to fly out. Karma used the distraction to swipe his knife at Korosensei.
But in the blink of an eye, the soup with flying everywhere, the pot was in Korosensei's grasp, and Karma was now wearing a pink apron with hearts and flowers and a red bandana. "We wear an apron in Home Ec., Karma,"
Korosensei told him, while the troubled teen took a moment to be shocked as to what he was now wearing.
"Oh, and don't worry. The soup is fine. I used a pipet to suck it all up in midair and put it back in the pot." He then lowered the pot down to Fuwa and Ed's level. "I also took the opportunity to add sugar.
Ed and Fuwa both used spoons to try out the soup and were amazed by the taste. "That's exactly what it needed!"
Karma growled angrily and ripped off the bandana, while the students around him started to giggle and snicker at him. "He sure is giving you the special treatment," Eddy mocked him while laughing.
'It was useless.
Korosensei had plenty of weaknesses. We all do. That's what makes us human. He blunders often, and when confused, his reaction speed falls to ordinary levels.
However, no matter how good Karma may be at surprise attacks, without a doubt in my mind, this assassination seemed impossible before the octopus' vigilance.'
000000000000000000000
After school let out, the Eds, Eric, and Nagisa followed Karma as he sat down on a tree that was hanging and stretching off of a high cliff, as the sky had turned gray and the winds picked up. This was one of the only places on the mountain that had this sort of cliff, and the only one to have the tree.
As the five boys stared at the troubled teen's back, it didn't take Double D to point out that he was frustrated. Even Ed could see it. They could tell just by the way he was biting his nail.
"Oh get over it you big baby," Eddy exclaimed harshly. "So you failed, big deal. We fail almost all the time and you think we stress about it."
"If he smelt it, dealt it, Eddy," Ed said.
"I agree with Ed, Eddy. You did stress about your failures before," Double D pointed out before looking at Karma. "But please don't be impatient about not succeeding, Karma. We'll all follow the Master Plan and kill him together, as a team!"
"Your plan may have worked yesterday, but there's no guaranty that it'll work again the next day," Eric told him.
"They're right, Karma." Nagisa pitched in. "You could have the sneakiest, most foolproof plan in the world ready to go, but if Korosensei got his eye on you, forget it. He's not like other teachers."
That caught Karma's attention. "Other teacher's, huh?" he whispered, as he remembered a teacher for before his suspension. One that knew about his problematic ways, but assured him that he was in good hands with him.
"You don't understand, I want to do it on my own. Let me ask you, would it tick you off to die in some random place?" said Karma in his carefree tone.
"Oh Karma," called the familiar voice of Korosensei. The Eds and Eric, Nagisa, and Karma turned their heads towards the direction of the voice and saw the yellow creature walking towards them.
"I feel like I've provided you with lots of improvements today," he said before the green strips appeared on his face. "You can still try and kill me if you want. I will polish you until you shine even brighter."
Karma smiled at him before standing on the trunk of the sideward tree. "Just so that we're on the same page here," he said. "You pretty much consider yourself a teacher of all else?"
"That's right," Korosensei nodded.
"So you wouldn't think twice about putting your life on the line to save a student?"
"What sort of teacher would I be if I did?"
"That's awesome. Go to know," Karma said before pulling out and pointing his gun at Korosensei. "So I can kill you."
And right after he said that Karma fell backward and off the cliff.
Nagisa, the Eds, and Eric were taken by surprise by the sight of their classmate willing falling to his death. "Karma!"
Unbeknownst to them, however, this is what Karma wanted, as he continued to smile and point his gun up as his back faced the approaching ground. He wanted to see what Korosensei would do. If he came to save him, then Karma would shoot and kill during the rescue. But if he lets him die without helping, then his existence as a teacher will be destroyed.
As his body continued its deathly fall to the ground, Karma was amazed to know it was true about a person's life flashing before their eyes.
00000000000000000
He remembered the time when he helped out an upperclassman who was being bullied by two other students. After beating the two students' unconscious, Karma found out that the reason for the harassment was because the upperclassmen was an E-Class student before any of the current students now. Karma told the student not to let anyone bring him down, before saying that he was in the right for helping out a classmate and putting a bully in their place.
However, when the bullies told the teacher that promised to help Karma, he turned his back on the boy.
The teacher lashed out at him for injuring one the bullies, who turned out to be an honor student. Karma was confused and tried to defend himself. The teacher then went on with ridiculing Karma for siding with E-Class and hurt someone 'who has a future' and how this could affect him as a teacher. Karma couldn't believe what he was saying, even after all he said about being on his side.
Karma thought that the guy was dying.
This was brought on because he was certain he was seeing the face the teacher crack and chip away to show his skull, while continuing to talk. Saying that he was willing to turn a blind eye because of his grades. But once his action started damaging his reputation and he was turning on him.
And right then and there, Karma was informed that he was going to be finishing his 3rd year in Class 3-E.
Right then and there, everything went black for Karma as one thing went through his head. He was dead to him. For him to be dead even though he was still alive, Karma understood at that moment. If he had lost all hope in him...to him, it was the same as if he were dead.
And so he walked out of the teacher's offer after wrecking it.
00000000000000000
'What are you waiting for, Korosensei?!' Karma exclaimed in his head. 'You come on down and die or you let me die!'
His body continued to plummet to the ground, right before a yellow blur pasted him. The blur suddenly turned into a giant spiderweb-like net below Karma.
When he came to it, the net sunk down before bouncing back up, with the surprised redhead remaining in it with a scratch on him.
"Well done. A splendidly premeditated assassination attempt. Full marks" said Korosensei from underneath him in his happy voice.
Upon the cliff, the Eds, Eric, and Nagisa were using through binoculars to look down at where they were. "Unbelievable," Eddy gasped.
"Here comes the Spider-Squid," exclaimed Ed.
"You mean Spider-Octopus, Ed," Eric corrected him, still wanting to play his little pun (if it was a pun, because, well, he's Ed).
As it turned out, Korosensei used his tentacle to create a spiderweb-like net to catch Karma before he could have hit the ground. "Neat, huh," asked the teacher.
"I knew your body couldn't take being plucked out of freefall at the speed of sound, and had I moved any slower, you would have shot me."
He then moved his head in between his tentacles to look down at the boy. "What a tangled and sticky web we weaved."
Karma was confused by the comment at first before trying to move his limbs and body. However, he soon discovered that he was unable to move and that he was stuck to the tentacles.
"What the hell," he exclaimed, "are there anything these tentacles aren't capable of?"
"Can't shoot me now, can you," Korosensei teased him with a chuckle.
"Oh, and by the way, students do not die on my watch." As he said that, the clouds overhead parted and allowed sunlight to shine on them. "Take that to heart for the next time you jump."
Karma wasn't sure if it was the sun or the truthful words said to him, but he was really starting to see Korosensei in a whole new light. He felt a sensation that he hadn't felt for a teacher for a long time. Trust and being cared for. Karma sighed with a small grin and closed his eyes. 'It's no good. I'm not dead, and I couldn't kill him. Not even his existence as a teacher.'
00000000000000000
"Have you completely lost your mind?!" Double D shouted at Karma as he was sitting down on the ground after Korosensei brought him back and the Eds, Eric, and Nagisa went to him. "How could just throw away your life so recklessly and be so calm about it?!"
"Don't know to be honest," Karma said as he stood up. He then faced Eric with a serious face. "Hey, look. I just want to give you a proper apology for calling you out on your eye." The apology caught Eric and the Eds off guard for a moment. "And for pulling off your hat, Double D. I was out of line and didn't think about how it made you two feel. So, how about it? We cool?"
Eric was quiet for a moment before smiling. "Thanks, man," he said before the two shook hands.
"Apology most accepted, Karma," Double D said, also shaking hands with Karma.
"So what now," Eddy asked.
"Sorry, guy. That last one was my best bet," Karma told him. "Nothing else I can think of even comes close to it."
"Aw, run out of ideas already?" Korosensei teased him, before bring out various beauty supplies.
"I still have a lot of beauty treatments I still want to try on you. Come on, no way you're this much of a pushover" teased Korosensei.
Karma had a ticked off mark on his head because of the remark, feeling his desire to kill him kick in again. But somehow it felt different from earlier.
Karma stood up and made a neck-slicing gesture with his fingers. "No worries, teach, you're good as dead," he told him.
Korosensei's face formed the approving orange circle.
"That's the spirit," he said. "Never give up. It seems improvements are no longer necessary."
"Come on you guys," Karma walked passed the Eds and Eric and Nagisa, tossing up a yen purse. "We can grab some food on the way."
However, as Korosensei stared at the purse, he was startled to realize that it was his purse. "Wait! That's my purse!"
"Like I said, teach, you got to stop leaving your things in the faculty room," Karma said.
"GIVE IT BACK!" yelled Korosensei in frustration.
"Here you go." Karma threw the purse to Korosensei, who quickly grabbed it and opened it. However, when he looked inside of it, he was confused to see that it was empty. "Uh, Karma, there's nothing in here," he pointed out.
"There wasn't much there, to begin with. Call it a donation" said karma is his carefree tone, with a hint of teasing behind it.
"WWWWWWWHHHHHAAAAA?!" Korosensei screamed, fuming.
As he then processed to yelling at the delinquent, the Eds, Eric, and Nagisa smiled at the scene.
'And there you have it. The redhead delinquent hitman who came to assassination Korosensei ended up being polished for the better by said target. That's how things are in these new 'EDventures' of ours, in our assassination classroom. And I can't wait to see how we'll try and kill him next time.'

{Playing Welcome Back by John Sebastian}
[Instrumentals] The opening fades into a scenery of Tokyo, Japan.
[Welcome back, your dreams were your ticket out] The scene then cuts to the inside of a house, showing a hallway with four doors, two on each side. Eric exits out of one of the rooms with yawns out loud while stretching his arms up. Double D then came out of his room, wearing a bathrobe and a bath-hat on his head.
[Welcome back, to that same old place that you laughed about] The smart Ed-boy greeted him positively, while Eric said good morning tiredly. Double D then walked down the hallway, as Eric knocked on a door on the other side, telling whoever was in it to get up.
[Well the names have all changed since you hung around] The scene changed to show the Eds and Eric at a table eating waffles for breakfast.
[But those dreams have remained and they've turned around] Eric then looked at the clock. He then stood up and told them something, to which they all stood up and grabbed their bags behind their chairs.
[Who'd have thought they'd lead ya (Who'd have thought they'd lead ya)] Looking at them from the left side, the views are shown the Eds and Eric walking to school. Walking Billboards and advertisement.
[Back here where we need ya (Back here where we need ya)] They're now shown walking up the dirt road to the old school building.
[Yeah we tease him a lot 'cause we got him on the spot] In the room, the Eds and Eric go to their assigned seats. Before he sat down though, Eric took a moment to look at Yoko.
[Welcome back, welcome back, welcome back, welcome back] Yoko noticed him looking at her and smiled and waved. Eric returned both gestures and sat down.
[Welcome back, welcome back, welcome back] Soon Korosensei arrived and the class began.
[Yeah we tease him a lot, welcome back, welcome back] Later on in the day, the Eds and Eric are shown attempting to assassinate Korosensei with some elaborate assassination plan.
[Cause we got him on the spot, welcome back, welcome back] Next it shows them failing.
[Yeah we tease him a lot 'cause we got him on the spot] The camera cuts to a hand holding a yellow notebook with the description of the assassination, and a number to indicate what attempt it was. It was crossed out by a red marker.
[Welcome back, welcome back, welcome back, welcome back] It is shown to be Eric who was holding the notebook, with the Eds around him. They sighed in disappointment, as the sunsets.
[Welcome back, welcome back, welcome back] They look at each other and shrugged with a small in an 'Oh well' manner. Eric then flipped over to the next page and put down the next number for the next assassination plan.
[Welcome back, welcome back, welcome back] The Eds and Eric are then seen walking back home before everything fades to black.
