A few hours following Bruce's first steps into Gotham High, he noticed a few things about the teachers: They were all just as bad as the students. One teacher was the weirdest, Hugo Strange, Gotham High's "nurse"; the way he looks at Bruce just weirds him out most times. Also there was Professor Pyg, Gotham's anatomy teacher - he was just so off.

As for his wallet, he drew the conclusion that Selina took it off him some time during their tour. Crane explained that he indeed did not stalk Bruce, he was just testing his fears like he does with everybody. Kerr was cool, Bruce liked the fact that he survived despite being tormented by the students. He still doesn't know what Joseph's nickname is yet, but he thinks he knows what it is.

"Snowman? Come on, man. That has to be it!" Bruce said to Joseph, who sat with him at lunch.

"No, that's not it. I see why, though." Joseph said, referencing his pale skin.

Kerr was not as pale as a snowman, but Bruce figured that someone would've made that joke.

"Really, then what is it?" Bruce asked.

Before Joseph could answer, Selina and a beautiful, red-headed girl in a green T-shirt started approaching the duo.

"Hey, Bruce. Here's the change." Selina said as she tossed Bruce his wallet.

Bruce took it without hesitation or reaction. The girl Selina was with approached Joseph.

"Hey, Ivy." Joseph said blushing.

"Hey, J." Ivy said.

Who's Ivy.

Bruce didn't ask as Joseph and Ivy were off.

"That's Pamela Isley. She goes by 'Ivy', and yeah, she and Kerr are dating. Trust me, I'm still as shocked as you are." Selina said.

Bruce wasn't as shocked.

"Sometimes it's not about looks." Bruce said, shrugging his shoulders.

"Yeah, I guess so..." Selina said as she took a seat.

The two then see someone come and take a seat and sit down.

"Hey, Harvey." Selina said.

"Kyle." Harvey said.

Harvey...

"Wait... Dent?" Bruce recognized him, Harvey Dent was one of Bruce's supporters during his case of Wayne Enterprises' corruption.

"Nice to see you again, Bruce. It's been a while." Harvey said.

"Yes it has. How've you been?" Bruce asked.

"Good, good. After me and my mother supported your case, Assistant Principal Gordon insisted that I run for Class President. After some thought, I decided to run this year. I want change around here, Bruce. You haven't been here as long as I have, seen the things these students have done. There was a gang a few months ago, called themselves the Red Hoods. One person in the group, the leader, wore a red mask, the Red Hood. In their spree, they killed over 12 students and teachers; it was bad, Bruce. Gordon was able to stop them with help of the GCPD. After that, I knew that it was time for a change..." Harvey said.

Bruce was silent as Selina confirmed everything Harvey said with a short nod.

"Anyway, we're getting off topic. I was hoping to talking you to supporting my campaign." Harvey said, oddly nervous.

"Of course. I'm sure you can clean this school up, Harvey." Bruce said.

"You know it's not as easy as saying yes, right?" Selina asked.

"Announcing your support could be able to turn the tide on me and Maroni, but it could also set a bad first impression. Trust me, Bruce, it won't be as quick as a few weeks once I have the title- hell, if I get the title."

Bruce took a moment to consider this. He could be there for his friend and potentially tip the scale in his campaign, but make many enemies, or stay neutral and let something like the Red Hoods happen again.

"You know what? Let's let the coin decide." Dent said as he pulled out a silver dollar coin.

"You sure you wanna leave it to that?" Selina asked.

"It's my father's lucky coin. Led me to run in the first place." Dent said as he flipped the coin and caught it.

"Looks like it's heads."

"Alright then, I'll do it." Bruce said.

"Thank you, Bruce. You have no idea how much this means for my campaign." Dent thanked Bruce, shaking his hand while pocketing the coin.

"Of course, Harvey. I can already tell that this is going to be great." Bruce said.


After lunch, Bruce and Selina were heading to their next class when they saw Joseph being attacked again, but by Bane.

"Come on, Bane. I didn't mean it truly! It was just a-"

"I don't care about your damn jokes, Joker!" Bane said as he threw Bane against the wall hard.

"Hey, dipshit!" Ivy said across the room.

"What?!" Bane asked, clearly out of it.

"Back away, or you'll wish you haven't looked in his direction." She said.

Bane seemed slightly afraid, but he didn't respond to her as he went to grab Joe again, but Ivy already thought ahead. She pulled out a small joystick from her pocket, and Bane clearly knew what this meant, stammering and panicking. She pushed the button down and took a gas mask out of her backpack. Geen gas emitted by the vents next to Bane and he fell on his knees, coughing up the gas as Joe just smiled.

"Smell that, big guy? Typical mushroom spores, over-the-counter. If you breathe in too much, you'll possibly die of mushroom poisoning. So back away, or puke your guts out." Ivy said, wearing a gas mask.

"O- Okay, I'll... AACK!"

Ivy got the message and pressed a button on her joystick, causing the gas to cease. Bane started breathing fresh air again, and Ivy pulled Joe away.

"You alright, J?" Ivy asked, dusting his jacket.

"Yeah, wasn't too bad this time." Joseph said.

"You really gotta cut back on the jokes, you know. One of these days, he'll snap your neck." Ivy said, pecking him on the cheek before heading off to class.

Bruce was in awe over what he witnessed. Selina had to snap him out of his state.

"We should go before we get caught." Selina said.

Bruce nodded and the two were off, leaving Joseph alone.

He turned to Bane, still struggling to stand, and he chuckled, and then laughed.

And then he was off to Science with his girlfriend.
