Any else middle-schooler you see is Cammy, like lightning and thunder is she and her friend Maddie.... It is a new teacher in history! This ought to be fun?
Thier first lesson, Mr. Corry was prancing about the blackboard written in big letters of chalk "POMPEII".
"Pompeii, knew thier whole lives living next to a volcano that can erupt at any second. Then why not change homes? This is nature. The other type is human nature. Are people good or evil? This is your assignment- be prepared to debate why people are evil" said Mr Cory....
"What, why, where, how?? This is stupid.... People are good, and this is not history" shouted out Cammy, "You have time to think, you questioned me. That is evil girl. See evil nature!" replied back Mr. Corry staring dead to her eyeballs prancing about. It felt like Cammy has some more things to argue on while the class was maybe dumbfounded at thier assignment. At that moment, the bell rung.... When the students were about to go off, Mr Corry exclaimed "This assignment cost 90% of your grade, now go. Get lost"....
Back at home again, everybody don't know what to do for this. They only had the weekends for this unreasonable assignment. Cammy and Maddie came down to the diner, where they always hangout even with thier other two close friends Lucas and PJ.
They sat in a row. "Ugh.... People are good, I am innocent. Or else we would not have McDonald's or schools or anything righaaaa...", Maddie was interrupted. Barging in from the bathroom, Cammy started crying. Taking her laptop and catapulting to the couch, her friends were concerned. Facing them, she said "I JUST DISCOVERED HOW EVIL PEOPLE CAN BE! ITS NOT FAIR. The Internet told me everything. 60million tons of food are wasted everyday in our own backyard, we are eating chicken when they are in danger, we are wearing wool when all poor goats are dying because of us and our fashion sense.", "Ima' interrupt you there. You're wearing Prada scarf" interrupted Lucas. Looking mad at herself, Cammy threw her purple scarf away and stomped on it and threw out the window and jumbling sentences "There is oil leaks, robbers, criminals, poachers, scammers, climate change, global warming, pollution blah blah blah.... Battery over collapsing." And so collapsed Cammy onto couch. "OMG! The internet broke you Cammy, there are good and bad people in the world. And we need to realise that." Lucas calmed her down.Maddie was mad- "No Cammy! People are good and I choose to believe that. You are so pessimetic! Global warming is not our problem or mine, do you see the world? Is it destroyed? No....", Quickly this got on the worse side- "Not yet. Are you blind? There is pollution everywhere killing millions of marine animals and even humans. It is because of us!" Cammy got cross. "Oh so you mean that people should be gone from the universe. Oh that is evil nature. That's just negative. I am optimistic unlike somebody. Maddie started lunging ."Yes, maybe that's exactly what I mean- we are evil. People should be in the universe Maddie.", "That's Dictatorship Cammy. I am good. I care for us and the society. How can you justify that?"
"Oh stop it you both, either being pessimetic or optimistic is just stupidity. Be realistic. We are alive, each of us wants to get everything and that is greed. We should be gratefull for living and not some weirdos of another universe or nothing at all now is it? pulled P.J. "Stop it peanut butter and jelly, I believe what I believe. People are evil, they are greedy for money and is killing society" shouted out Cammy. In response to that, "That is solitude. To live in isolation without people and call it better for society. There is no society with no people" Maddie began to realise. "All this homework done was make us prattle on and on and procrastinate our own life choices. If information be the food of evil, then so be it" Lucas shouted himself getting mad. "Yes stop it you two, you know we care about you both. Or maybe you should leave." shouted PJ and Lucas. "Fine!" both of them shouted at the same time, and got up from thier couches.
The next day at school,
All four of them, thier friendship was ruined. Mr Corry made Cammy and Maddie debate against good and evil, and just like yesterday. Cammy was for evil and Maddie was for good. "People are evil. And that's tyranny. This is greed. Evil in human. There is global warming killing millions of animals, chickens being killed to be eaten, leather made out of hurting animals, global warming because of our pollution, hunger because of our food wastage, poverty because we never donated, oil leaks, robbers, criminals, scammers and History teachers." "Now Cammy, is that not stupid? You speak of global warming and yet nothing happen. We are happy here and so don't be pessimetic. People are good." Maddie shouted back.
"Now both of you, switch sides. Cams, you're good and Mads you're evil." Mr Corry said. Cammy looked shocked. "You can't do that sir!", "It's not an order Cams!".
Maddie immediately jumped to points on why people are evil, in response to that, what did Cammy say? "Well, if you are that easy to switch sides foe what is good or bad? Then what is morality Maddie?" "But a good debater should be able to debate both sides Cam" Maddie said back.
"You see how much this made you two fight over. Like Pompeii, Like you. Both evil and good are good Cams. Trust me. Be grateful. Pompeii is nature, this is human nature."
Cammy and Maddie both began to realise thier mistakes, and apologised giving a hug. "Thunder?" called Cammy, "Lightning " replied back Maddie and hugged each other. "Awwwwww......" came back the class". So I guess History taught us to love again.
