Jerome-"Bathrooms.... Bathrooms Mr.Sweet. there needed when you have to go."(sweet knew where this was going considering Patricia was there)

Mr.Sweet-"Look ms.Williamson, (he look behind Jerome) ms.Mercer and Mr.Clarke, I've said this once and I'll say it again. There is nothing we can do it about this. It's part of a contract."

Jerome-"and may I see this contract."

Mr.Sweet-"I beg your pardon?"

Jerome-"May I see... The contract"

Mr.Sweet-(he goes to a carbonate and looks through it to get the contract. He finds it then hands it to Jerome and sits down. Jerome skims through the paper and finds the loop whole. He smiles because it's child's play) "What is it?"

Jerome-"Mr.Sweet could you please read the first couple of sentences in paragraph 3 aloud." (he hands the him the contract)

Mr.Sweet-"Unless any anger is brought amongst the teachers and or students of Dragon high Raven is the only one unless invited in by her to go into the 2nd floor bathroom during the second period class.(he stops reading) "Okay, what? I don't see it."

Jerome-"Read that one sentence very carefully one more time" (he read silently in his head once more, but was confused even more)

Mr.Sweet-"Jerome is there any point here?"

Jerome-"yes there is Mr.Sweet, Patricia are you mad by this?"

Patricia-"Yup, I hate it"

Jerome-" Joy? How about you?"

Joy-"Totally"

Jerome-"There you go."

Mr.Sweet-" Jerome we already knew they didn't like it."

Jerome-"Yes but, the contract states 'Unless any anger is brought amongst the teachers and or students' meaning if us the students are mad, Raven can't have that bathroom privilege."

Mr.Sweet-"So you want me to break the contract for 3 students, Jerome you have to be crazy."

Jerome-"Crazy? I think not. Patricia? (Patricia passed the clip bored to Jerome and he handed Mr.Sweet the clip bored with papers that had students signatures on them) And I feel your find this very impressive of me. Joy would you please."

Joy-"Mr.Sweet, Jerome had a thought and it was brilliant. He not only though about how the students felt, but the teachers. And if you can see on the 10th page the majority of all the teachers said they hate having there students late to class because Raven owns the second floor bathroom and they have to go up or downstairs to use the restrooms."

Mr.Sweet-"Okay, I can see you all thought this out very carefully but I can't just get rid of it like that."

Patricia-"And that's when the student hand book comes in. (Patricia hand him a copy of the student hand book) If you could please turn to page 50 and look at paragraph 2."

Jerome-"you'll see that it states that if a student feels something is unfair and there not getting equal treatment n then they have a right to a student trail."

Mr.Sweet-"A student trail! That's absurd! Why on earth would we do that? Jerome your not even a girl, this doesn't even concern you. You can go anytime you want. And-" (Jerome interrupts him)

Jerome-"Yes, it does very well concern me. I see to young ladies very upset and that breaks my heart. Which makes me mad that they don't get equal treatment and Raven does. So there's two ways we can go about this Mr.Sweetn either you let us have a student trail and go up against Ravens words or we can always go to the school bored and tell them that the Dragon High principle is giving female students unfair treatment when it comes to restrooms policy based on a contract that only benefited one student." (Jerome took out his phone in secret)

Mr.Sweet-"How about this, you guys drop the subject and I won't suspend you? How about that? So please go head and do so, but I know you wouldn't dare." (A long pause was taken).

Jerome-"Try me!"

Joy-"Wow Jerome. Can you excuse us for one second." (Mr.Sweet smiled knowing he had Joy scared of the threat. They all stay in his office but huddle up)

Jerome-"What?"

Joy-"That's a big threat Jerome, are you sure you've got this?"

Jerome-"Positive."

Patricia-"I'm still in"

Jerome-"Me too"

Patricia-"Joy...?" (she thought about for a couple of seconds)

Joy-(She looked into Jerome's eyes and knew he wouldn't risk anything that he knew he couldn't win.)"I'm in to."

Patricia-"Yes!" (it was awkward)

Jerome-"Okay we should g3t back to Mr.Sweet now."

Joy-"yup" (they all turn around and race Mr.Sweet)

Mr.Sweet-"so do you want to put drop the subject or continue? And may I say choose wisely."

Jerome-(he look at Patricia and watched her nod her head. He then look at Joy and she nodded her head as well.) "will see you at the trail Mr.Sweet." (he looked shocked as they all turned back around and left his office.)

Joy-"Oh My Gosh! What did we just do?!"

Jerome-"We just won that's what. Mr.Sweet knew he can't win this fight."

Patricia-"How do you know?"

Jerome-"Patricia if I know anything, and I know a lot, I know when someone is nervous, and that man was sweating and tensing up every second of that whole conversation."

Joy-"So now what do we do? Mr.Sweet could expell us."

Jerome-"know he can't, the student hand book protects us from being expelled or suspended if we make a statement that could possibly help the school but is disagreed with by the principal."

Patricia-"uhh, who knew?"

Jerome-"uh, everyone!"

Joy-"I didn't know"

Jerome-"You guys really didn't read the student hand book did you?"

Joy- (patricia and Joy overlapped each others voices) "Nope, not one bit"

Patricia-"what do you think?

Jerome-"Well now you guys have to fight better then what we did there."

Joy-"wait us? Know Jerome you have to be with us!"

Patricia-"yeah, your better at this then us."

Joy-"And your a better debater!

Patricia-"Yeah, your really good."

Jerome-"I didn't think you wanted me."

Joy-"Are you kidding, I wouldn't want anyone else! No offense Patricia."

Patricia-"it's okay, I would have said the same thing."

Joy-"Anyways, Jerome I'm sorry if I got you upset, I didn't mean to. But we need you Jerome. I need you..."

Jerome-(Jerome took that to heart) "Okay, I'll do it, but you must follow my lead and trust me in whatever I do."

Patricia-( she looked Joy) "We're with you Jerome"

Jerome-"good, now let's get ready."

*They all went to Patricia's house after school and started writing out possible outcomes of the situation*
