JAVI'S
ROCK´NTEACH
Only then, he realised. He was a teacher at a Madrid public institute. What
went wrong? Obviously, the answer was lost in a series of misfortunes long time
ago, but after a lot of years of monotony, the feeling that he had failed still
there. Working as a bilingual teacher of biology (not as geologist, which was
what he studied to be) couldn’t be considered as failing, but the truth was
that he hated his job, and he did nothing in order to hide it from his
students. -Javier Vallejo Terraza-
He was really mean to all of his students, he wanted to make them feel bad
just because he didn't achieve his dreams of being a famous rockstar. Since he
was really young he practiced guitar everyday for 8 years but he didn't get to
any point in his professional music career. After seeing he couldn't make his
dreams come true he decided to study biology because he had a contact in a
famous public school in Madrid, Beatriz Galindo.
-Sergio Vara-
It came as a surprise to him, that not a single of his students listened to
rock. In order to solve this, he played his favourite songs during his classes.
That continued to be like that for several months until a shocking event
happened. One of his pupils were struggling to pass his subject and in an
attempt to suck up to him, the aforementioned student showed a lot of interest
to rock music. He became his favourite student and a really good friend. -Nicolás Bagur-
The teacher didn’t have many friends either, rather none, so apart from
this student starting to be his favorite student, he started to like him very
much and to gain a lot of confidence with him. The teacher some days told
the student his whole life. The student just wanted to pass his subject and not
get to that point. Everyday it was more and more, until one day the teacher
invited the student to a Rock concert and the student did not accept it because
he was getting afraid of the teacher. Ana Baños
The teacher was devastated by what his student had told him, even though he
already expected a similar response, because this student was still under-age.
The teacher asked him why he didn’t want to go to the concert, the poor student
responded that he was not allowed by his parents. After a couple of days, the
teacher told the student that he had talked to his parents and that they would
be attending the concert, programmed for the following week. Carlo Cabrera
The night before the concert, the teacher performed his usual routine:
playing his favorite rock music while looking at his wall, which was filled
with the amazing quotes he had said during his classes, like 'Do you guys not
talk enough at home?" and "You mark is this high? The exam must've
been really easy then." He stepped in front of his favorite one,
"Thank you for sucking up to me." It is what marked the beginning of
his friendship with his favorite student. -Alexa C.-
The day of the concert arrived and the teacher decided to get his best wig
for such a great event, he felt marvelously, he hadn't felt how hair was in
such a long time and it was a wig filled with, apart from disgusting
grease, good old memories, from when he was, or at least tried to be, a
rocker. -Stefan
They were at the concert, and the student became surprised by how much he
actually liked rock. He loved the songs, the atmosphere and the passion
of the audience. He enjoyed the concert a lot and started to feel guilty for
lying to the teacher. He decided that he would tell the truth to the teacher
when the concert would be finished. When the concert finished, he told the
teacher that he enjoyed the concert and that he wanted to learn to play the
guitar. He still felt guilty but he was afraid that if he told the truth, their
friendship would be ruined. -Ariana
Espada-
The following day, during class, the student decided to tell the teacher
the truth, because he felt bad lying to him.
The student apologized for it , but the teacher told him that he already
knew that he did not like rock, but it was good to have a friend or just
someone to talk to. - José
Gálvez
So everything was good, they kept their friendship until the end of the
term, in which the student, got a 9 in the subject.
Finally, his plan had succeed, he passed the subject without any problem.
The only inconvenient was that the teacher started picking up the student
from his home to go together to the school. At first, he did not mind, but
after a month he was totally burned of him, he even wanted to kill the teacher. -Hugo
One day, the teacher invited his student to his home in order to give him a
guitar lesson. He accepted it, not only because he was curious about it and
wanted to learn but also because he already said to the teacher that he wanted,
so he had no escape. When the student went to the teacher's home he was quite
frightened, he entered and a strong and filthy smell came out of the house… -Pablo
The student entered the house disgusted, as he passed through the corridor
the smell became stronger, but once he got to the living room it disappeared.
After a while playing the guitar, the student asked his teacher if he could use
the toilet, as he was looking for it in the corridor the disgusting smell
appeared again, it came from the basement… he couldn't resist his curiosity and
went down. To his surprise he found a human corpse, he immediately run up the
stairs, before being discovered he closed the door of the basement and went to
the living room, told his teacher something unexpected had occurred and that he
must leave. By Isabel
He left his teacher’s house as fast as he could. After he arrived home, he
was paralyzed, he couldn’t stop asking himself: What did I just see? Should I
tell someone what I’ve seen? He couldn’t think clearly enough, everything was
too recent and he was still shocked. He decided to go to sleep as he thought he
would have better ideas the next day.
The next day, he woke up like any other day. However, when he started
thinking about what happened yesterday, he was now afraid of going to school.
So he pretended to be ill and convinced his mum to allow him to stay at home. By Sofía
Only 4 days left so Easter holidays would start. He planned
everything so he could not go school for the last 4 days as the didn't want to
see his teacher at all. He was totally traumatized.
One night he was sleeping when we heard some steps, we woke up and thought
it was his teacher that came to kill him, but it wasn't. It was just his cat.
That afternoon his teacher came to his house to see if he was okey. He was
totally shocked and frightened that couldn't even say him "hello". By Moe
He started coughing very heavily, and his eyes were leaky, and he was
shaking because of fear. He was just a tiny way too unlucky, as he had choose
to be friend a Biology teacher, who told him that he had the Coronavirus, and
called the sanitary authorities.
The student was put in isolation in a hospital near his house. He didn’t
know what to think of his decision, as he would not see the teacher for at
least a month, but his parents would be charged for all the medical bills. By Pedro
Should he take advantage of his friendship, and ask the teacher to help
monetarily his parents to pay the bills? He wasn't sure. Of course the help
would be an anonymous donation. But would that favour be too much?. That would
join them more, Luis would never escape from that friendship, and after what he
saw… By Ana Pérez
He was lying in room 110 of October 12th hospital, and, as he felt
completely lost and without a purpose in life, as well as really scared of his
parents’ reaction after the mandatory isolation period, he started looking
through the window. There was a big avenue, Andalusia Avenue, running just
below the window. For two hours, he could do nothing but obsessively looking at
the heavy traffic down the avenue. For a moment, he thought of ending it all. By Miguel de Perosanz (Charo, don’t worry, I’m not actually suicidal, it’s
just the character.)
He finally decided to not commit suicide, because, after all, he realised
that his teacher had become a friend.
When he recovered and he went to school again, he told the teacher that
now, their friendship was true, not like before.
After this, the teacher showed him his true hobby, as he was a geologist,
he loved stones, so he was a stoner. He showed him how to roll some blunts, and
they got high together, when they were high enough, they started telling some
traumas that had they had from the childhood. By Gonzalo Quintanilla
After a very weird moment, the teacher started to reveal his true self, he
told the student to come his house once again, the student, who was so high he
did not know who he was talking to agreed, and this is where the teacher's
masterfully executed plan entered the last stage. Once they entered the house,
he locked the house with key, and told the student to sit down while he went to
change his clothes. The teacher returned, but he was wearing the same clothes,
and, most importantly, he had a chainsaw and a mask on his face. By Andrés
.
He said: ¨Wanna cut some wood¨. I had never used a chainsaw so I said no
because I was so high that I could barely open my eyes, that was some serious weed.
He then said ¨fine¨. And went to the kitchen to grab something to eat. That is
when I started to get paranoid, what if he had poisoned my food, or even he
could come with a knife and stab me in the guts. But all of those thoughts left
when I saw that piece of cake. Manuel
Ruiz.
I started to feel really really bad, so I told my teacher. He said that the
cake would help so I ate a piece, it was really good. The teacher told me, he
made it himself. Once he said that, panic fulfilled my body and thought of the
cake being poisoned came to me. I started feeling dizzy and tired, I had a
terrible desire to go to sleep. Now I knew what was happening, I was so
terrified that I was seeing all my life passing in front of my eyes. Elisa
After some horrible minutes of dizziness I fell down without being able to
watch nothing but black. Finally I recover consciousness, but I was tied to
chair with some fluffy handcuffs. After an hour waiting, the teacher finally
entered the room where I was and displayed some tools on a nearby table. While
he was doing this, I realised that he was about to torture me, and I tried to
shout. However a mouth ball gag prevented me from doing that. Jacobo
I knew that was the end of my life, and after a few minutes my teacher told me with a dark and crazy voice that he didn’t want to but he had to do it. He told me that The voices ordered him and it was either me or him, but then he asked me if i was able to hear them. It was at that point when i realised how powerful was his mental illness, and before i could have time for analise what he just told me, he grabbed a knife and stabbed it repeatedly into my chest. Laura
Oh wow, that went from satirical to wholesome really quick. And then to morbidly gruesome (and perhaps a little suggestive) just as fast. I believe that every one was just as high as the main characters while writing this, if not more. In all seriousness though, it was an amusing story, and surprisingly coherent all things considered. Just hoping that this isn't some sort of transcendental premonition of the person the antagonist was based on.

I really like this story. Everyone seemed to share a similar view on how the story should, as you can see that in the final result. It has some crazy plot twists, but the final result is somewhat coherent.
