Ever After High x Monster High: Beyond the 4th Wall

Chapter 4: Student Government Elections

It soon looked as if Raven Queen and Lizzie Hearts would be the only candidates left in the running for the Headmaster of EAH. The election was coming up in about a week and Kitty Cheshire had pulled out of the race. Acting headmaster; Milton Grimm had resigned almost a month ago, but agreed to remain in office until after the elections were over. Raven being the best choice for Headmaster, was sure that she would be elected the next headmaster of EAH. One week later; Election day had come at last. The students and faculty swarmed the polls across the land of Ever After. The day had come for Milton to give the office of Headmaster to a new candidate, but who that is will be determined by the election. Classes started the usual time on Election day. But when the time came for lunch; everyone would gather their lunch and eat in the Castleteria as usual, and from there; proceed to the auditorium to vote for the next headmaster.

By the conclusion of the polls, the tally was given, and the winner would be announced by the end of the night. Raven and Lizzie both were in their dorm rooms waiting patiently for the results. The night seemed to drag on continuously, but after a few hours of waiting; the results were in from all over the land. In a nail-biting election, it was a very close battle. However; the votes for the two candidates were tied, but that wasn't everything. It appeared that despite her being Demisexual and a member of the Ever After LGBT community; somehow, Rosabella Beauty (who as far as everyone knew wasn't even in the running) was announced the winner of the election.

Rosabella (who people say never actually ran), was sitting in her dorm room awaiting the results of the election just like everyone else. When the winner was announced, Rosabella was absolutely shocked that she won. Rosabella was so flabbergasted, she had been elected headmistress of EAH and didn't do anything, seemingly just about everyone voted for her. Lizzie had suspected foul play was involved and demanded a recount of the votes. Raven accepted the results and congratulated her friend; Rosabella on winning. Rosabella was heading down the hallway to her next class when just about every student and faculty member were giving her dirty and hateful glances.

Some of the people in the hallway even shouted; "Cheater! You weren't even running, so how would you have won the election!?" While others demanded a recount or a re-vote. Rosabella, would not take office until after class that day. Today would be her last day of class for a long time, because soon, she'd be the new headmistress of EAH in less than 6 hours. Rosabella seemed like she didn't even want to be headmistress of the school. Although; apparently almost everyone in the land of Ever After did. That is why she won the election.

Rosabella and her friends; Kitty, Lizzie, Apple, Raven, Cedar, Briar, Maddie, Darling and Cerise all walked together to either Princessology 101 or Chemythstry 101. Cedar, Cerise and Maddie headed to Chemythstry 101, while Raven, Darling, Apple, Rosabella and Briar headed to Princessology 101. Once everyone was in their respective classes, acting headmaster; Milton Grimm got on the intercom and requested that Kitty Cheshire, Raven Queen, Rosabella Beauty and Lizzie Hearts report to the headmaster's office immediately. Kitty was getting up from her seat, when Rumpelstiltskin told her to stay in her seat. Kitty told him, "I have to report to headmaster Grimm's office, so I have to leave class." Rumpelstiltskin shouted at Kitty again; "If you leave my class, you'll get a 'F' and you Fail the class!" Kitty left class anyway, she didn't care about failing her class.

Raven and the others asked to be excused from class because they were told to report to the office of the headmaster. Queen Rapunzel accepted their reason to leave class. Lizzie, Rosabella and Raven headed out of class toward the office of Headmaster. When everyone had arrived, acting Headmaster Grimm told them all to have a seat. The four girls sat down, and Headmaster Grimm began to speak. "Girls, it has come to my attention that one of you has broken the rules of the high school and has brought a very powerful magical object to class and it was recently discovered to have influenced the results of the last two elections. I am not sure which of you possesses this object, but I ask that the object be returned to the school's Sacred and Magical objects room on the third floor."

Milton had to stop to catch his breath and then he continued; "By all rights; Apple White should've won Class President, Rosabella should've won School Treasurer and since, Cedar was the only candidate running for Student Council and Chair of the School Board, she won fair and square." The four girls in the headmaster's office looked at one another with confused glances. "Does that mean; that I'm not going to be the next headmaster?" Rosabella asked calmly. Headmaster Grimm looked at the four girls and then answered.

"Ultimately; Rosabella here didn't actually run for office of the headmaster. However; there were complications with the polls and almost everyone was forced to vote for either Rosabella (as a write-in) or Raven Queen as the digital ballot boxes were rigged to cast all votes for Raven as votes for Lizzie, and upon fixing that problem, the results of the tie were actually Rosabella by write-in and Raven Queen by votes." He stopped to catch his breath before continuing. "Kitty did in fact pull out of the race and Lizzie only got 1% of all the votes. Therefore; I, Headmaster Milton Tiberius Grimm, do hereby decree that Ever After High students; Princess Raven Ravenna Grimhilde Queen and Princess Rosabella Elena Beauty are actually tied for the position of headmaster and as acting headmaster. I feel the need to make the final decision of who becomes the very first headmistress of this school." There was a long pause for a few minutes before Milton continued. "Therefore; I see the need for choosing one of you to become my successor. And I have chosen Rosabella Elena Beauty to succeed me as Headmaster. My decision is final."

The four girls in the headmaster's office acknowledged Headmaster Grimm's decision. And then Raven, Lizzie and Kitty looked at Rosabella and congratulated her on her win. Rosabella thanked her friends then she headed back to class. Lizzie decided to skip her classes the remainder of the day. Raven went back to her Princessology 101 class, after school ended; Raven returned to her room and spent the rest of the day with her girlfriend and roommate; Apple. Kitty reluctantly disappeared and reappeared in her dorm room where her best friend and roommate; Lizzie was laying in bed, and said she'd been in bed all day sick as a dog, which didn't make any sense to Kitty. Because a few minutes before she'd seen Lizzie in the Headmaster's office and she seemed perfectly healthy.
