Fandom Invasions Class #5 (Thursday, period 3)

[demons-death.livejournal.com]

When the class filed into the Danger Shop today, they found themselves standing in ankle deep water. Looking further into the room showed the streets of Fandom, flooded with water much deeper than ankle depth.

"Good morning," John said, from his slightly raised -- and dry -- spot. "Last week, we saw how strange weather often leads to even stranger things. This week we're focusing on natural disasters, which in Fandom seem to be rarely natural, or the worst thing you have to worry about.

"We're an island so a spot of flooding may seem like a perfectly logical -- though sucky -- occurrance. But Fandom doesn't get just a flood." He gestured at the waterlogged streets. "More than just excess water's swept into town.

"For this class, I'd like you to pair up, and go exploring. Take with you only what you would if you woke up one morning and saw this outside your window -- the Danger Shop will create your requests if they are reasonable. See if you can find anything that might be a clue to why there's a flood -- they really shouldn't be too hard to spot." John smiled wolfishly. "Just try to not let any 'clues' wallop you."

"Nice try," Jenny said wryly. "But I think we should look around a bit more than that before we call it a day." She picked a direction more-or-less at random and said, "Let's go that way."

Valentine tapped his fingers together sheepishly and waded out a little deeper into the water.

"It was worth a try," he said. Even if this wasn't all real, he knew this wasn't called 'invasions' class for nothing. "The last time Fandom flooded, I stayed much, much farther from the water than this."

"That was probably smart," Jenny agreed as she slogged down the street. "Don't want to go getting soggy for no reason. But now we've got a reason, haven't we?" She grinned at Valentine. "Called our grades."

"Grades, physical well-being, saving the world, it's all beginning to run together now, isn't it?" He chuckled a little and shook his head. "I suppose one reason is as good as the next. I wouldn't be in this class otherwise."

"There's the spirit," Jenny said. "Well, so far I see a bloody lot of water and no source, how about you?"
