Japan, Tokyo. . .

  There was a classroom located on the third floor of a three-story school building. The classroom has a sign that says 3-2. Inside, a male teacher was handing out exam results to the students.

  "Abarai Yumi!"

  "Yes!"

  "You got 87!"

  "Yeeeesss!"

  "Woooww!"

  "Waaaww!"

  "Ishiki Kenshi!"

  "Yes!"

  "You got 80!"

  "Aw, man, I'll do better next time."

  "That's still a high score! Good job, man!!"

  "Yeah! Good job!!"

  "Hahahaha! Thanks, guys!!"

  "Next, Miage Yuki!"

  There was a third-year high school student in the class, named Miage Yuki. She is 154cm and weighs 45kg. She's in her high school uniform. She has a pair of clear blue ocean eyes. Her hair is vibrant blue. She has a bang that splits at the middle of her forehead. Her hair reaches above her shoulders. She has a ponytail that is tied by a blue snowflake hairpin.

  "Yes!"

  Yuki stands up from her seat, walks to the front of the class, and receives her exam result.

  "You are the last one and you got 98!"

  "WHAAATTT!!"

  "WOOOOW!! HIGH SCORE!"

  "Is she the highest in class?"

  "Dang it, she did it again, she beat everyone else in class!"

  "Before this, the highest one was our class president, and he got 92."

  "Grrrr, she's good!" said the class president, whose name is Yamada Shu.

  Yuki turns around in front of the whole class.

  "LOOKS LIKE I AM ON TOP AGAIN! HAHAHAHAHAHAH!!" said Yuki with her head tilting upwards and pointing her thumbs to herself, acting playfully arrogant.

  "WAHAHAHAHA!!"

  "DON'T MAKE YOUR CLASSMATES ANGRY, YOU SHORTIE!"

  "WHAT ARE YOU SAYING YOU ARROGANT SHORTIE!!"

  "YEAH, DRINK MILK SHORTIE!"

  "WHICH ONE OF Y'ALL KEPT CALLING ME SHORT? COME UP TO ME AND SAY IT TO MY FACE!"

  "WHAHAHAHA! FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT!"

  "Um, class, calm down, okay!!"

  "WAHAHAHAHAHHA!"

  "SENSEI, COME KNOCK SOME SENSE TO THAT DWARF QUEEN!!"

  "LET THAT DOWN TO EARTH PERSON KNOWS!!"

  "YOU DON'T NEED TO CROUCH TO PICK UP A PEN FROM THE FLOOR!"

  "THE CLOSEST PERSON TOWARDS THE PLANET'S CORE!!"

  "BWAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHAHAHAAH!!"

  "GUYS GUYS STOP! I’M DYING LAUGHING! WHAHAHAHHAHAHA!!"

  "PFFT!! *COUGH COUGH* ERMH! UURMMH!" The teacher put all of his might into holding back his laughter because of his students' jokes.

  "WHO KEPT CALLING ME SHORT CREATIVELY!!" said Yuki.

  "WAHAHAHAHAHAHAH! SHE ACKNOWLEDGES IT'S FUNNY! BWAHAHAHAHAH!"

  "(DANG IT! THEY'RE CREATIVE, I ALMOST LAUGHED TOO!)"

  The classroom was filled with joy, friendly banter, and laughter. The teacher allowed this simply because this entire class is filled with diligent and genius students. The lowest score of the entire class was 80, and even then, there are like 5 other students who have that same score out of the 24 students in the classroom. Not to mention that everyone in this classroom is all close friends with each other, with no exception, nor is anyone left alone.

  "Alright, class! For our next class, it's gym class!"

  *!!!*

  "WOOOOOOOO!!"

  "LEEESSSGGOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!"

  "YEEEEAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!"

  Everyone in the class cheers in harmony. Seeing how all of the students in this class are very academically diligent, people would think they would not be into sports. Not this class though, this class loves outdoor activities just as much they love studying indoor.

  "Alright, all the boys can change clothes in the class! All the girls, go to your locker room to change clothes. I'll also change my clothes and wait for all of you down there at the field."

  "YESSIR!!"

  They all answered frantically in harmony. All the girls proceed to leave the class one by one, while all the boys stay.

  A few minutes later, the whole class had assembled in the school field.

  "Okay, first! We're gonna do warmups!"

  "OKAY!"

  The whole class did warm-ups as per the teacher's instructions for 5 minutes.

  "Okay, class! We're doing a marathon! 5 laps of 1km run, starting from this line!"

  The teacher instructs them as he shows them the starting and finishing line on the field. He walks to the side and prepares a flute.

  "Everybody! READY! SET! GO!"

  *PRIIIIIIIIIIITTTTT*

  The teacher blew the flute as the starting signal.

  "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!"

  Everyone hypes themselves up and starts running.

  "Remember! Do not push anyone when you're running! Don't cause any accidents!"

  "YES SENSEI!!"

  The whole class has begun to run, and there are 10 students who immediately went full speed, and then the rest of the class ran at a moderate speed.

  "Those idiots! They're gonna tire themselves out, watch!"

  "For real! This is 5 laps! They're not gonna make it!"

  Yuki was among the people who didn't run at full speed at the start.

  "Guys! This is boring! Let's make a bet!"

  Her classmates, who are in the same group as her, start to respond negatively.

  "Oh no, here we go!"

  "Yuki! Please don't say anything crazy!"

  "I have to help out at my family shop later! Please be nice!"

  Yuki looks towards the people who complain.

  "Sounds like a YOU problem! HAHAHAHAHA!"

  "OIIII!!!"

  "EVERYONEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!"

  *!!!!!*

  Yuki shouted as loudly as she could, to the point where the people who ran faster earlier could hear her.

  "THE LAST 10 PEOPLE WHO REACH THE FINISH LINE ARE GOING TO TREAT THE WHOLE CLASS TO A BARBEQUE PARTY DURING SUMMER VACATION!!!"

  *!!!!!!!!!!!*

  "HAHAHAHAHA!! BYE BYEEEEEE!!!!"

  As soon as she announced the bet, Yuki ran at full speed, leaving her group in the dust.

  "YOU LITTLE SHIIIIIIITTTTTT!!!" said everyone in the group in harmony.

  Everyone in her group immediately hastens their pace in response to Yuki's sudden acceleration.

  "THAT LITTLE SHIT IS CATCHING UP TO US!"

  Her classmates on the front realize how quickly Yuki runs.

  "FULL SPEED!!!!!"

  "UWWWOOOOGGHHHH!!!"

  Her classmates at the front hasten their pace even more, and their gap to Yuki widens a lot.

  "GRRRR! Those on the front are the best runners in the class! But I'm not gonna lose, BECAUSE I'M ONE OF THEM!!!"

  Yuki caught up to them, but also got left behind almost immediately. The people on the back have already caught up with Yuki and are now also trying to catch up with the people on the front.

  "AAAAAAAARRRGGHHH!!!!"

  "GOOOOOO!!!!"

  "UWOOOOOOHHH!!!"

  "RAAAAAAAAAHH!!!"

  "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!"

  And for almost the entire 5 laps, the whole class all ran at the same speed. But halfway through the final laps, the people who ran at full speed at the beginning had started to slow down.

  *!*

  "EVERYONE! CHANCEEEEEEEEE!!!!

  "LETS GOOOOOOO!!!"

  "UWWOOOOOOOHHHHHHH!!"

  And then at the finish laps, all the people who started slow have reached the finish line, while the last 10 people who reached the finish line were all the people who started at full speed.

  "YEEEEESSSSS!!!"

  "BBQ PARTY!!! WOHOOOOOOOO!!!"

  "FREEEE FOOOOOODDDD!!!"

  "YAAAAHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!"

  "AAAAAARGGGGHHHH I HAVE TO PAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!"

  "NOOOOOOOOOOOOO MY SAVIIIIIIIIIIIIINGS!!!"

  "MMYYYY FOOOODDDD ALLOOWANCEEEEEE!!!!"

  There are two different emotions of cheers and shouts coming from the whole class, easily distinguishing who's won and who's lost. But then all of those cheers quickly change and harmonize into one similar groan.

  "AAAARRGGHH!! MY LEEEEEGGG!!"

  "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!"

  "OUCH! OUCH! OUCH!!"

  "CRAAAAAAAAAAAAAMPPPPP!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!"

  "IT HUUUUURRRTTTSSS!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWW!!"

  Everyone ran with their whole being and has exaggerated their body beyond their current physical capabilities. They are all on the ground, lying while holding their hurting legs in harmony.

  "Sigh~ This entire class is full of both geniuses and idiots!"

  The teacher sighs at the sight of his own class's state.

  "HAHAHAHAH! PATHETIC! I'M THE ONLY SURVIVOR!!"

  *!!*

  Everyone looks towards Yuki, the only one who stands up amongst them.

  "Hehehehe! At the BBQ party, everyone must offer me one of their share of beef! We only decided what's gonna happen to the loser, but not the winner, so the winner is I!!"

  Everyone notices how much Yuki's legs are shaking and trembling.

  "YOU ACT TOUGH JUST FOR MEAT? YOU GONNA FALL IF WE PUSH YOU A BIT!"

  "YEEAAH SHUT UP SHORTIE!!"

  "YOU WEREN'T EVEN THE ONE WHO CROSSED THE FINISH LINE FIRST, SHORTIE!!"

  "SHUT UP!! I'M THE ONLY ONE STANDING NOW SO I'M OBVIOUSLY THE WINNER!! A WINNER IS STILL A WINNER!!"

  "HUUUUUUUUUUUHH????" said everyone in the class at the same time.

  Everyone makes a ruckus because of Yuki, and they keep throwing friendly banter at each other.

  Afterwards, the whole class continues their gym class.

  They play some volleyball. Yuki and her team, who were chosen at random, are very aggressive, but they lost in the end because they were too aggressive.

  They play badminton next in doubles battles. Yuki and her team, who were decided by lottery, played good but ultimately got defeated in the end.

  They play baseball next. Yuki and her team, who were decided by a game of paper, rock, scissors, dominate the entire game but ultimately lose in the end.

  "Bro, any team with Yuki loses."

  "Yeah, might have something to do with her height."

  *BAM BAM*

  The two guys who were talking about Yuki got hit by a flying baseball on their faces, thrown by Yuki herself. However, the throw wasn't powerful enough to cause permanent injury as it was merely a friendly squabble.

  "STRIKE TWO!! YOU'RE DEAD!!"

  "AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!"

  "THIS IS NOT BASEBALL YOU IDIOT!!"

  "WAHAHAHHAHAHA!"

  The whole class laughs at her ridiculous antics.

  After gym class, everyone ran back to the class after changing their gym uniform back to their school uniform. And then. . .

  *RIIIIIINNGGG*

  The bell to the whole school just rang, signaling the end of school activity for the day.

  "STAND UP!"

  Everyone in the class stands up as per the instruction from the class president.

  "BOW!"

  "GOOD AFTERNOON, SENSEI! SEE YOU TOMORROW!"

  "Well done, class, you are dismissed! See you tomorrow!"

  The whole class starts packing up their belongings and prepares to go home. Yuki was the fastest, and she ran to the door to the classroom.

  "LAST ONE LEAVING THE CLASSROOM GONNA BECOME MY OFFICE SLAVE IN A COMPANY I'll OWN IN THE FUTURE!!"

  "WHAAATT!!! DEFINITELY NOOOTTT!!" the rest of the classroom responded in disgust in harmony.

  "WOOOOOOOOGGGHHHH!!!"

  The entire class starts packing up faster and immediately leaves their seat to run towards the door competitively.

  "MOOOOOOOVEEEEEEEE!!!"

  They all huddled on the door, yet they weren't being violent about it.

  "MOVE I AM NOT ABOUT TO WORK UNDER SOMEONE SHORTER THAN ME!!!"

  "YOU TOOK THE EXACT WORDS FROM MY MOUTH! MOOOVVEEE!!"

  Yuki has already left the door and is running in the hallway towards the staircase at the end of the hallway.

  "WHAT DID YOU ALL SAY ABOUT ME?"

  "DANG!! SHE'S FAST!!"

  "SHE ALREADY ALMOST AT THE STAIRS! GANG! LET'S WORK TOGETHER !!"

  The rest of the class starts moving in harmony, allowing all of them to squeeze through the door as fast and as many as possible at a time.

  "COME HERE YUKIIII!!"

  The entire class is running in the hallway chasing after her. But she stops right at the stairs to try to catch her breath.

  "*pant pant* That was foolish of me. . ."

  She turned her head to the left and saw that her whole class was running after her, and it looked like the stampede of a horde of wild rhinos.

  "OH NAAAHHH!!!"

  Yuki starts running down the staircase fast and reaches the first floor in just 7 seconds.

  "WHAT? SHE'S ALREADY DOWN THERE!!"

  All of her classmates were also hurriedly running down the staircase. Yuki heard the loud footsteps and she immediately started running again towards the school gate, but this time her speed was a lot slower, given how exhausted she was.

  When Yuki was only halfway through the gate, all of her classmates were already on the ground floor. They all immediately rush again towards Yuki.

  When Yuki almost reaches the school gate, her classmates have already caught up to her. One of the girls grabbed her from behind, and both of them fell on the ground.

  "Hehe guys, I'm just kidding. . ." Yuki smiles innocently.

  "BRRAAAATT!!!"

  All of her classmates proceed to either pinch her cheeks or drill their fists on her head, but all of those actions are done in a friendly manner that don't actually hurt Yuki.

  "I SWEAR IF I EVER BECOME A BELIEVER ONE DAY, EVERYONE IN THIS CLASS WILL BE THE FIRST VICTIMS OF MY NEW PROFOUND POWER!!"

  "HUUUUUUUUUHH?"

  The entire class intensified their pinching, and Yuki suffered the consequences of her loudmouth confession.

  "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!"

  This goes on for quite a while, and they become a show near the school gate.

  . . . .

  After a few moments, the class split into two groups. Students who joined clubs stay at school, and then students who didn't join any are commuting in a large group.

  "Anyone wanna do study sessions?"

  "Oh, good idea! Whose house is the biggest that can contain all of us?"

  "Bro, shouldn't we split into smaller groups so we don't bother the parents whose house we're visiting?"

  "Ehh, but it's more fun with all of us!"

  "Oh, I know why don't we also do a tour and vacation? We'll go on summer break for 2 weeks. 1 full week of studying and then the other full week for fun and sightseeing entirely?"

  "OOOOOOHHHH!!" Everyone starts cheering towards the idea.

  "But where are we going, though?"

  "That's easy!"

  "Yuki-chan, you have an idea?"

  "Of course!"

  "Where?! Where we goin'?"

  "OKINAWAAAAAAAAA!!"

  *!!!*

  "LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!"

  "WOOOOHOOOOOO!!"

  "CAN’T WAAAIIIIIITT!!"

  "YEEEAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!"

  The entire group cheers at the idea that they shout so loud they're starting to annoy nearby passersby. They continued their fun after-school commute with banters, conversations, gossip, and such, just like normal high school students. They also remind each other to inform their classmates who are in the club activity right now about their plan.
