Paranormal Activity 101, Tuesday, January 4th
When students filtered into the classroom on Tuesday they'd see a new teacher sitting at the front desk, immersed in a texting spree with somebody. He made sure that his phone was put away the second class started, however. Had to set a good example and everything.
"Welcome everybody. Just to make sure everyone is in the right class: You all know this is Paranormal Activity 101, yes?" Alaric waited a minute just to make sure anybody who had came into the wrong class had a chance to make a swift exit. "Okay, good. I'm Alaric Saltzman, but please, call me either Ric or Mr. Saltzman. Nobody calls me Alaric."
"I was going to start this class off with some spiel about how this class is just for fun and vampires aren't real, et cetera, et cetera, but five minutes in this place has let me know that you aren't the average bunch of students that I usually deal with," Alaric said with a smile. "So let's go into this with an open mind and a willingness to learn, shall we?"
"In this class we will be covering a new supernatural being every week, with a brief historical overview and ways you can bring it down if you have the unfortunate luck to be in a situation where one is after you," he said. "Now, just because I will be teaching you these things, it does not mean I want you to go out there and play hero. You shouldn't hunt without the proper training and this class is not the proper training. It's an overview so that maybe you'll have a chance at survival in emergencies."
"And," Alaric leaned against his desk and crossed his arms over his chest. "I am well aware that not everything that goes bump in the night is evil and should be hunted. So while I will tell you how to hurt and even kill the supernatural beings we'll be covering, I want you all to know that it should be taken on a case by case basis. Don't go killing just because you can."
Wow, this was definitely a freeing teaching experience, that was for sure.
"So, today is going to be an easy day. I want introductions from each of you. Your name, age, your experience with anything of the supernatural kind and something you would like to learn about," he said. "I specialize in vampires but I'm sort of a research nerd, so if I haven't heard of what you want to know more about I'm more than willing to read more about it."
"Oh, and I've already picked Ms. Forbes as my TA," Alaric started, gesturing at Caroline. "So feel free to bother her if you have any questions that you don't want to ask me."
