Gotham

Episode 4 - Class President

A/N: Hi Guys I know I've been absent for a while but fear not!

Principal Hugo Strange had ordered an emergency assembly, which would take place in the auditorium. Strange was intrigued to how this assembly would play out, it could go either two ways, destructive or even more destructive. Either way was bearable. The bell began to wail and hundreds of students had began to pour in.

Bruce Wayne, Barbara Gordon, Selina Kyle, Harley Quinn, Waylon Jones and Jay made up the first row. The Principal grinned as the assembly hall doors had closes. "I have called all of you here because today you will all be deciding who your class president will be" Hugo explained. Everyone in the hall gasped. "Two students have already secretly signed up but only one will become the class president, these students are; Pamela Isley and Harvey Dent!" Strange continued. Pam and Harvey glared angrily at each other, realising their competition.

Throughout the day both competitors would have to sway their classmates into choosing the, as the class president when it came to voting time. After a short round of applause Hugo dismissed the assembly.

Pamela Isley and Harley Quinn paced up and down the halls of Gotham High, determined to convince their school to vote for the former. "Who should we go to first Pammy?" Harley asked. Pam grinned. She ignored Harley's earlier comment and followed Victor Fries, her first hopeful supporter. "Hey Victor, if I go to dinner with you will you vote for me as the class president?" Pamela asked, batting her eyelids. Victor smiled past Pamela and gazed at one of his fellow students; Nora. "Sorry Pam, I've already got someone in mind for my dinner date" Victor responded. Pamela showed a fake smile before leaving angrily with Harley.

"Well so far I've got your's, Jay's and Selina's vote!" Pamela said.
"Well actually you've still got min and Selina's vote but um, Jay's voting for Harvey" Harley quietly whispered, trying not to aggravate her friend. Pam tried to hold back but failed. "What?! That Joker is voting for Dent?! That's it!" Pamela threw her flyers down on the floor and marched over to the bleachers where Jay, Waylon and Bane sat talking and smoking at the same time.

"Hey Isley, how's it going?" Jay asked, grinning. Bane and Waylon chuckled in the background.
"How's it going? How's it going? How do you think it's going? Why on earth are you voting for Dent?".

Jay released his fag and let out a puff of smoke before returning it back in his mouth. "You know who boys are we gotta stick together. No hard feelings ay?". Pamela's face began to turn red. Pam turned around and motioned her hands to the floor. "Ahhhhh!" She roared. Suddenly the earth began to move beneath underneath Gotham High. Vicious vines shot up from the floor and began to attack many of the students, Pamela didn't mean to cause harm, but she was so angry! A vine like tentacle shot past Harley's head and wrapped itself round the bodies of Waylon Jones, Bane and Jay.

What happened next was up to Pamela....

Bruce Wayne, Barbara Gordon and Harvey Dent paced around the ground of Gotham High. Bruce and Harvey loved free periods but Barbara however did not. "I mean its just a waste of our education!" Barbara moaned.
"Well it gives us time to persuade people to vote for me doesn't it?!" Harvey responded. The three students made their way to the sports field where they noticed giant vines attacking the students. "Oh my god!" Barbara yelled.
"Uh, I'll be back in a minute!" Bruce yelled before running off.

Bruce hurried to his locker and pulled out his bat-suit and utility belt. Bruce rushed to the changing room and voila!

Batman crept on top of Gotham High School and rummaged through his utility belt, pulling out his Bata-rang before launching it at five of the vines. Everyone turned around to see the hooded hero on top of the school. "Pamela stop!" Batman yelled, hoping to reason with her.
"I don't know who you are but stay away from me!" Pamela responded, firing a ray of thorns from her mouth. Batman pulled out a small black vial and began spraying an icy mist which froze the string of thorns.

Selina Kyle who was watching below, attempted to figure out the identity of the hero. "Whoever he is, I'm not letting him take all the credit!" She muttered to herself. Selina utilised her acrobatic skills by launching herself in the air and tearing apart the vine that encased Jay. "Cheers toots!" Jay said, grinning seductively to Selina. The feline obsessed teen angrily slapped Jay in response before strutting away towards Pamela. "Red just leave him, whoever he has, he's not worth it, that goes for Jay as well. Let's go before Principal Strange gets here!" Selina said, running off with Pamela.

Assembly had arrived once more. Principal Hugo Strange carried the results of the Class President. "Thank you all for voting today but here is the result. The Class president for this year is...............HARVEY DENT!".

Selina quickly turned around to face an upset Pamela. "Please don't freak out Pammy" She said.
"Don't worry I won't, he won fair and square, he didn't attack the whole school after all!" Pam replied.
