Gotham High: Story Of The Dark Siders

Victor Fries, The 'Coolest' Kid In School
Victor's right eye twitched a bit as Harley kept on her fit of laughter.
"I'm sorry, Vic!", She laughed. Jake's left eye twitched as he watched his girlfriend practically embarrass him.
"Harls, you already apologized to Stone Cold over there about a million times!", Jake practically shouted, shoving her away when when she latched on his arms
"I know, but, ha ha ha ha. I can't believe he did that. Now she'll never go out with you", Harley continued to laugh. Victor wanted to punch the blonde but knew Jake would kill him for it, so resigned himself to the death glare.
If you're wondering what's happening at the moment.
"Let's just forget about it", Victor muttered.
Then you'll be wondering for the rest of your life.
Victor started walking down the sidewalk at a slow pace as Jake finally got Harley to stop laughing. Halloween. Jake's favorite holiday. Next to Friday the 13th of course. This year though, him and Harley were dressed as circus clowns instead of a joker and a harlequin. Only because they liked to spice things up.
Victor was wearing a space suit and was currently holding the helmet in his left arm. He was depressed. He's had the longest crush on Nora Fields, not the most popular girl but attractive enough for an ice heart like Victor's. Sadly rejected and defeated, Victor still wouldn't give up. He would fight for Nora's affection. He'll-.
"Hey clown face!", Someone shouted from across the street. Victor, Jake and Harley turned to the left and saw a guy waving at them. "How much candy for the girl", He laughed. Harley glared at him while Jake giggled. Victor sighed. He could feel a fight with the love birds later.
"Barry!", Barry turned around and saw Bruce, once again that night, glaring intensely at him. "Don't mess with them. Especially them", Bruce said.
"Bruce!", Harley cheered. Jake glared at the other teen, and his girlfriend, while Victor smiled. What an interesting night. Harley jumped a little and quickly ran across the street. "We've been looking for you!", She said hugging Bruce. John and Clark whistled while Barry cursed the Wayne men for their good looks.
"Hey Harley", Bruce smiled trying not to make eye contact with Jake who was storming over with Victor in tow.
"Jake wanted to talk to you about something real important", Harley smiled still holding onto Bruce's arms. "He wouldn't tell me though, the big lug".
"Ah,.. Yeah", Bruce answered hesitantly. John could feel the awkward moment rise as the matching clown guy and space man walked up. The clown grabbed the girl and pulled her back.
"Stay", he warned. "Bruce, my boy!", Jake greeted turning to look at the other three. "These must be the friends from Metropolis your always telling Eddie about", Clark gave Bruce a glance before he realized space man was sizing him up.
"Ah, so Bruce", John said patting said teen on the back. "Why don't you tell us your friends's names?"
"Well, they're-".
"I'm Harley! Nice to meet you!", Harley greeted. Jake's eye twitched again as Barry gladly accepted the hug Harley gave him.
"Barry!", Barry smiled. "Fastest runner in all of Metropolis", John and Bruce rolled their eyes while Clark laughed.
"Really. Well, I'm the greatest acrobat in Gotham", Harley stated proudly.
"Hi", Victor grumbled.
"Ah, guys we were heading over to my house", Bruce stated turning to his friends.
"Throwing a party Bruce?", Victor asked.
"No", Clark answered. "But we could start one if you guys like. Y'all seem pretty cool". Bruce glanced at his friend. If only he knew.
"I'm the 'coolest' kid in school", Victor smirked putting his helmet on. Harley, Joker and Bruce just rolled their eyes while Bruce's friends had confused looks on their faces.
Good thing Alfred wasn't on his man period tonight. When Bruce showed up at the mansion with his friends and 'others' Alfred was actually very excited.
He even invited everyone at the damn school!
Course lots of them didn't show up, still enough to fill the mansion though. But Jonathan Crane sure did.
Jonathan walked into the mansion, with his scarecrow costume on, warily. He didn't trust popular kid's parties much. But he needed to snoop around the Wayne mansion.
Jonathan quietly walked up the servant stairs in the kitchen and looked around.
"Hey friend!", Jervis Tetch said as he was coming down the stairs. Jonathan groaned as he saw the idiot was wearing a Mad Hatter costume. Just like last year. And the year before that. And the years before those.
"Jervis, what the hell are you doing up here!?", Jonathan snarled.
"I could say the same thing about you...ah", Jonathan sighed taking his mask off. "Jonathan! What are you doing up here?"
"Answer my question first", Jonathan stated.
"Oh, I was just following Alice", Who the-?
"Who the hell is Alice?"
"It's my girlfriend's nickname", Jonathan stared at Jervis for a second before busting out laughing. "What's so funny?"
"Knowing you, I don't even think you have a girlfriend. Hallucinating much lately, Jervis?", Jonathan laughed.
"She is real!", Jervis defended. "I'll go get her. Stay right here", He said running past Jonathan down the stairs. Yeah. Like he's gonna wait for his crazy head.
