Aftermath
Author's note: This one is a little dark. Read with care ...
“All right, young man. Why dont you tell me what made you come to my office in such a hurry?”
“Well sir, its like this. I was taking Drama, and in the middle of doing exercises my tie on my pants came undone, and before I could do anything about it, my pants were around my ankles. I fell over, and ...... the whole class saw me. They could see ... they could see I was wearing girl’s panties.”
“I ..... I see. Then what happened?”
“Well, sir, it might be easier if I show you.”
“All right.”
So the young man took the principal back to the theater, and opened the door.
It was surprisingly dark, and terribly quiet, and the principal felt around for a light switch.
When he found it, the room flooded with light, but what he saw caused such shock, he missed the sound of the door being closed behind him.
The room went black again ......

Checks for blondeness. I
Checks for blondeness. I don't get it.
Was his Drama class after his Math class?
math class?
color me confused .....
The Title.
Aftermath = after math class.
It's a very poor attempt at humor.
I still don't get the story.
Don't feel alone.
Me either, I have no idea and not enough idea to even anticipate what made the principal or any one else lose it.
I thought the implication was clear
The student went berserk with rage at the taunts and killed everybody.
The part that does not make much sense is, why would he call the principal then?
you could be right, Sir Lee
it seems possible. As to why he would call the principal? well see the comment below for a good reason ....
I think...
Therefore I am confused!
I would assume that the title "Aftermath" refers to that this is a story about the aftermath of what happened after the protagonist had been made fun of for having been caught wearing panties. My guess he had long been the target of bullying and that the school had done nothing to stop the bullying. On being humiliated and made fun of in front of the whole drama class was the final straw, causing him to go berserk and killing everyone in the drama class. Then he went to the principal, who had failed repeatedly do do anything about the bullying, he then lured the principal to the drama class room to kill him too. Now having done that, will he seek out and take his revenge on everyone else who had bullied him?

My take too
That was what I guessed.
seems like a good guess to me

Classic horror story
Classic horror story technique, the readers own mind is supposed to supply the gory details, "and everything went black again" implies that was the end of the principal.
thanks, Fletch!
That was what I was shooting for.
Hmm...
So he's a crossdressing serial killer? Rather dark, and rather sexy. = )
*HuggleSnugglePurrKissHappytailswish* <3
dark and sexy?
sounds like a good description of you, my friend.
Why yes.
And I can be so without having to kill, which is a bonus. ;)
Excellent
