Since first period was not totally filled by the assembly...
Alipang, partly due to physical fatigue with so little sleep last night, partly due to residual emotional effects of last night's drama, drifted into la-la land for a short while.
In la-la land, as it happened, a beauty queen called Miss This Universe And All Parallel Universes Too, who had the most perfect body ever seen topped by a perfect oval face framed by lush dark hair, was being kidnapped by an evil gang of diesel-truck drivers, who threatened to torture her to death with suffocating torrents of cusswords. But they were forgetting to reckon with that swashbuckling superhero--
THE FILIPINO FIREBALL!!
With his nuclear-powered balisong knives, the Filipino Fireball slashed all the tires of all the 18-wheelers faster than a human eye could follow, immobilizing the gang. Then, when the poor outclassed fools tried rushing him forty to one, the superhero just squeezed his eyes, nose and mouth shut, then shot a vast cloud of hot spice powders out of his ears, which rendered the evil truckers helpless as if hit by tear gas. But the Fireball's powdered spice was formulated to be harmless to beautiful sexy heroines; thus Miss This Universe Etc. was able to stroll at ease out of the very midst of the choking, gagging criminals.
Draping herself over her rescuer with her face an inch from his, she whispered in husky and passionate tones, "How can I possibly ever thank you, Filipino Fireball?"
But his sister's voice broke in before the superhero could suggest something.
