Advanced Mad Science, September 25th

The first things the Mad Science students might have noticed about this week's class was that the Danger Shop didn't look anything like a lab this time. In fact, it looked suspiciously like an old graveyard connected to a small village in some Eastern European country, with a large pile of shovels placed off to one side. Prof Tomoe was especially fond of the full moon, and the wolf cry sounds that started up every few minutes.

"Good evening class!" he said, loud enough for everyone to hear over the wind that blew through the spooky trees. "Today, we're going to have a bit of a change of pace and do some more ... hands-on work. I'm going to pair you up in groups of two, and together you're going to explore some Mad Biology.

"Once you've found your partner, you're to grab a shovel from the pile. Pick one of the graves around here, and dig until you find something. There should be enough fresh pieces in there to assemble your own horrific reanimated monster, but you want to pay especial attention to finding a good brain. The brain is what drives a person forward and makes each one unique. With the right kind of brain, you could have a devoted servant who carries out your evil will; with the wrong kind of brain, you could end up with a horrific monster who chases you over the Swiss Alps, and hunts down and murders everyone you have ever held dear."

He pulled out a piece of chalk and wrote some notes on a chalk board nailed to a nearby oak tree.

BE CAREFUL WHEN DIGGING UP HUMAN REMAINS
PARTS NEEDED: ARMS, LEGS, TORSOS, HEADS, BRAINS, ETC

REMEMBER:
SUBSERVIENT HELPER MONKEY BRAINS --> GOOD
EVIL PSYCHOTIC KILLER BRAINS --> BAD


He turned back to the class. "To save time, I'm going to partner you up. Since we have an odd number of students in this class, we'll end up with a group of three."

He pulled out an oversized bowler hat, and started pulling out random slips of paper in groups of two. Once he'd pulled them all out, he wrote down the result on the chalkboard:

Valentine/Zack Addy
Yakushi Kabuto/Edward Elric
Johnny Storm/Victor von Doom
James Sullivan/Cher Horowitz/Zim


He smiled at the class. "Happy digging."

"There's neck. A funny looking neck," This was just nasty. "And ribs..."

"It's supposed to be a monster. That'll work well," Victor said, annoyed that Storm found that much of a body.

That wasn't all either. He held up a foot. "I think we have enough body parts now, don't you?"

"We have two legs and an arm and you want to add another foot? What an effective monster we'll have, able to kick you with three feet," Victor said, obviously annoyed. He went to another grave and dug for one more arm. "Is there any obvious damage to the head you found? If the brain is likely to be damaged we should find another one."

"This monster could have a foot growing out of its hip for all I care," Johnny said just as annoyed. "The head is fine. Unless you count the two holes in it where eyes used to be then your totally screwed."

"The monster needs to see," Victor said, finding a right arm. Unfortunately it was still attached to the body, so he broke it off. He quickly located the head and removed the eyes as well. "We're set."

Johnny made a face. "This is just gross."

"It's part of the work in this class," Victor said, stepping out of the hole. "Deal with it or drop the class."

"You have a smart mouth, Doom. I don't think I like it."

"At least you can recognize intelligence," Victor said, smirking at his own sense of badassery for turning that around.

He didn't know about the I'm rubber, you're glue phrase or that it was the best way of explaining what his retort was like.

"Huh, whatever," he mumbled. "Let's just get this damn thing over with so I can go shower."
