WHO: Kenjiro, all students!
WHAT: GYM WRESTLING CLASS!
WHERE: The Gymnasium
WHEN: Tuesday
WHY: Because God hates you all.

It was with a look of great pride that Ito Kenjiro, new gym teacher at Nanakamado Esclator School, looked at the gymnasium. It had been...renovated wasn't the right word. "Transformed" did much better.

Sitting smack dab in the center of the gym floor was a professional wrestling ring, set up by Kenjiro and some of his buddies over the course of a few days. Surrounding it were a bunch of blue protective mats.

Entrances from the male and female locker rooms had been covered by black curtains. There were some free weights and other gym staples still, sure, but for the most part, things looked a whole Hell of a lot like a wrestling arena.

"Wahaha!" the teacher exclaimed, standing center-ring, rubbing his hands together. "The new recruits will be here any minute!"

This would be the first gym class since the death of the school's former gym teacher. There were no promises that it wouldn't cause the death of one of the school's current students.

But Hell, Kenjiro's got an honest face. What could go wrong?

For the first time in her life, Toshimi felt that she could really relate to people like Toru who were always trying to get out of gym class. Up until now, she had never had a problem with it, and for the most part really enjoyed the classes. But now, as a sports announcer might have put it, was an entirely different ballgame. There was nothing good about this situation, no bright side to make things better and nothing for Toshimi to distract herself with. Everything from the "renovated" gym to her classmates' new wrestling outfits (Toshi remained in her regular gym uniform herself) to the bizarre change in personalities that it was causing in some of them (unless Kiriko had always secretly wanted to run a gambling ring) to the reason why all of it was this way in the first place were totally intolerable thoughts for Toshimi. Paradise was surreal enough that Toshimi could convince herself that it was a dream world, a fiction. This was reality, and there was no escape.

Of course, Toshi reacted in the way that she always did. Her smile today was so forced that a close observer might have seen her visibly twitching. The easiest way to get through the day would have been to play along and not do anything. But when Ito asked if there were questions, Toshimi felt a strong impulse to complain--something she hadn't been consciously aware of feeling in a long time. She didn't want to act on it, but became acutely aware of that nagging pressure again. She had to do something. "I have a question," she said, raising her hand. Her smile was still intense. "How will this class be graded?" Asking this didn't make her feel any better at all, though.
