Fighting fractions by moonlight
Challenging teachers by daylight
Reading Shakespeare at midnight
She is the one named Sailor Pi
She would never forget math operation
Or the rules of heat condensation
3.14 can save any situation
She is the one named Sailor Pi
She is the one
Sailor Pi!
With Geoffrey's help, it seemed that Bizzie was ready to fight any evil creature from the Negaverse that might cause any harm. "So," he said, "I'd better be on my way." he casually said one day in late August.
"What do you MEAN on your way?"
"I MEAN my work here is done."
"How so?"
"Biz, haven't you noticed that summer's over? I have to go fight REAL evil back in my home town."
"What evil is that?"
"French homework."
"Fine," said Bizzie, quite annoyed, "Be that way."
"Freak." muttered Geoffrey as he left to pursue fighting his own idea of evil.
So Bizzie was on her own again with Alpha and Beta. She still had yet to run into the Sailors, but she knew that if she was going to be a real Sailor she'd have to fight like one. Still, 'Jeffy' was right- the summer WAS over and she had to go back to school.
Bizzie was now 14 and entering a high school where she didn't know anyone at all. 'Maybe people won't make fun of me now that I don't speak Shakespearean anymore,' she thought. Her first class of the day was math, Bizzie's favorite subject since she was little. The teacher looked fairly nice and the students looked pretty friendly, but still no one had come up to Bizzie during homeroom. "Hello class," the teacher said. She introduced herself and explained that they were going to learn about circles."
'Yay!' Bizzie thought, 'Circles are my favorite because they have to do with pi."
"Now," the teacher said, "Who can tell us how to find the circumference of a circle?" Bizzie's hand shot up at record speed. "Yes, please tell us your name and your answer."
"My name is Bizzie Lizzie," she said and heard a few snickers from the people sitting around her. Nevertheless, she continued, "And you can find the circumference of a circle by multiplying its diameter by pi."
"Very good, Bizzie Lizzie. Now, who can tell us what pi equals?" Again Bizzie's hand went up, but the teacher called on another girl. "Yes?"
"Pi equals 3.14," she said matter-of-factly.
"Yes, isn't that right, class?"
"No!" cried Bizzie, impulsively.
"What do you mean, Bizzie?"
"I mean, pi is not only 3.14, it's 3.14159265358979323846264338327950288419716939937510582097494459230781640628620..." Bizzie rambled on at top speed. The entire class burst out laughing, but that didn't stop Bizzie.
"That's ENOUGH, Bizzie," she said. Still, Bizzie kept going. "Thank you for that clarification." Bizzie had passed the 300 millionth digit and was still going. "THAT'S IT!" Finally, Bizzie stopped. After class, she had to have a rather long talk with her teacher about calling out in class- and whether to call the school psychologist or the Guiness Book of World Records.
