The Miracle Clinic

S2 Chapter 11 - Surviving The Seniors (4)

All across Starlight High a loud noise echoed throughout it that was heard by all. Didn't matter if you were in the gym, eating in the cafeteria, stuck in the filthy locker rooms, sleeping in a boring class, or even chatting it up in the teacher's lounge, you heard it. And that noise was someone shouting at the top of their lungs...

"WHAT THE HELLLLLL?!?!?!?!?!?!"

The source of that voice is the baffled Evan Dixon, who is looking at something he never thought would happen. Someone trying to campaign for being the next student council president, and that someone not being him!

"Oh hey, that's me," X remarks as he looks at the posters supporting him as student council president, "Wait, how come I'm running for the election?"

"I just told the teachers you agreed to it so they allowed you to run," Ronnie responds.

"This- This is unfathomable!" Evan scoffs as sweat begins to drip down his face, "X drop out of the running this instant!"

"I would," X begins to say as he looks at the poster of himself, "But they really got my good side in this, when did you even take that picture of me?"

"That's from last year's yearbook," Ronnie answers.

"Oh in that case it's awful and I demand you to create a better poster for me, your supreme leader," X commands.

"I would say no but we need you to win so fine," Ronnie sighs before walking to his next class.

Evan is completely baffled as X Locke walks past him.

However, X just places his hand on his shoulder and responds, "Hey man, they're clearly just trying to have a lil fun, so why not let them? Besides there's no way that I'd actually do well."

"Yeah," Evan remarks as he calms down, "It'll be impossible for a joke contestant like you to get to the final debate!"

"HOW DID THAT FUCKER GET TO THE FINAL DEBATE?!" Evan roars.

Evan Dixon is standing behind the stage that was set up in the gym, getting ready for the final debate, where the two last contenders make speeches as to why the student body should vote for them. The others with him back there are Georgia Gibson and Bernard Ginger.

"Yeah, I thought nobody was going to care," Bernard uninterestedly remarks.

"He hasn't even done anything besides have some people set up posters!" Evan Dixon remarks.

"They are some pretty good posters," Georgia adds, "They really went well with the font choice."

"You think I give a damn about those shitty posters!" Evan yells.

Georgia sighs, "Was just saying."

Evan begins to walk up onto the stage as he says with a laugh, "I'm gonna have to nip this in the bud once and for all!"

Evan carries himself very well as several of the students in the bleachers, who were forced to show up to this mandatory assembly, watch on with intrigue. He's done several of these speeches in the past, he's bound to do well on this one. Across the stage standing by his own podium is X Locke, X looks at him and gives him a thumbs up. However, Evan ignores the goodwill as he's ready to stomp on that pest...verbally.

"Alright then, we'll have each participant make a speech that lasts roughly 2 minutes," Teacher Jolyne Joggers explains, "Afterwards the students get to vote on who they want as the president of the student council. Evan Dixon, you may begin your speech."

"Thank you," Evan says as he takes a bow before beginning his rant, "Now my legacy as a student council president speaks for itself, we all know how much work I've put in this past year and if you elect me once more, then I'll do an even greater job than before! Besides, who would even want to vote for that joke of a human?!"
