So when I'm looking through my computer files I come upon weird little bits of stories like this that I never finished:
The Teacher
That Ate
My HOMEWORK
I had always thought that Mr. Shultz was pretty weird. He, strangely, had been my teacher since preschool. I hadn't thought it was strange before I was in 3rd grade, when I heard my brother talking about his different teacher for every year of school. In 5th grade, I started watching him. But it was in 7th grade that I really decided there was something wrong with the guy.
At first it was just little things. I was in 7th grade and it was the first day of school. I was hoping beyond hope that my teacher would be someone else this year - Mrs. Parker-Smith, for instance. I'd heard that she was a normal teacher, albeit being nice. I was in disbelief when I heard that I was going to be in Mr. Shultz's class. I mean, what was wrong with the guy? He seemed to be following me, because this year I had a totally different class than I'd had the year before. I was the only one that had been in his class the year before, and the year before that, and the year before that, and around five years before that. It was getting a bit freaky.
Anyway, I was talking with new classmates in the classroom before school started. And then Mr. Shultz rang the little bell on his desk with pictures of dictators such as Hitler, Stalin, and.... Picasso. Don't ask why, I have no idea. But that's beside the point.
