Dear Readers,
Two years, I have watched DC Super Hero Girls' take on The Breakfast Club & I felt it was a little rushed compared to Victorious' take on said movie from the mid-80s. So I have decided to pen down a better take on The Breakfast Club featuring all six of the DC Super Hero Girls. This is also my attempt at creating an AU where DCSHG takes place in the 1990s (Specifically 1991-95) as opposed to 2010 & onwards. I sincerely hope you enjoy reading it.
Signed, The Author
Chapter 1: The Saturday Begins
Metropolis, March 21, 1992...
(In a bustling city at 6:26 AM, A blonde girl was riding her skateboard to Metropolis High & listening to Don't You Forget About Me by Simple Minds on her Sony Walkman all the way...On a Saturday. The blonde girl wore a torn-sleeved crop top, a pair of black fingerless gloves, a pair baggy jeans with torn holes exposing the knees, a pair of Air Jordans & a plaid jacket tied around her waist. She also sported a bob-cut with bangs covering her forehead. Her name was Kara Danvers & the reason why she's riding her skateboard to school is because she & her friends have to serve their Saturday detention. How they ended up with a Saturday detention will be revealed once they enter the school.)
(When Kara reaches the Metropolis High entrance, she skids to a stop before flipping her skateboard in the air & catching it. She is soon greeted by her five friends, Barbara Gordon, Jessica Cruz, Zee Zatara, Karen Beecher & Diana Prince.)
(Barbara wore a short jacket, a pink crop-top, a pair of short-shorts, a pair of burgundy hoop earrings, a pair of pink socks that went above the ankles & a pair of Nike sneakers.)
(Karen wore a yellow T-shirt, a pair of short Tommy Hilfiger overalls, a pair of yellow socks with black stripes that went above the ankle & a pair Nike sneakers. Karen also sported a pair of twisty pig-tails with yellow streaks & they were held by yellow scrunchies.)
(Diana wore a golden necklace, a candy blue tube-top, a candy blue mini-skirt, a golden hoop navel ring with a dangled diamond, a pair of golden hoop earrings, a pair of golden platform heeled sandals and a pair of golden wrist bracelets. Diana also sported a wavy & voluminous high ponytail & a curly bang in the front of her face.)
(Jessica wore a green buttoned long-sleeve shirt, which is tucked in, a dark green ascot around her neck, a pair of black khaki pants, a pair of emerald green square-shaped earrings, a pair of dark green shades above her forehead & a pair of closed toe ankle-strap sandals. Jessica also sported curly hair.)
(Zee wore a white buttoned long-sleeve shirt, which was tucked in, a dark purple suit, a pair of black khaki pants, a pair of Lolita Lady Oxford shoes & a violet hairband. Zee also sports long raven hair with mall-bangs that covered her forehead.)
(Once all six girls have entered the school, they approach their lockers to take out their beepers, Gameboys, game gears, compact makeup kits, any personal electronics or gadgets that were available in the 90s. Kara, on the other hand, just stuffs her skateboard in her locker & pauses her music to talk to her friends.)
Kara Danvers: (Sarcastically) Wow! What a great way to spend a Saturday!
Jessica Cruz: (Indignantly to Kara) You know, Kara. You are the reason we're all even serving this Saturday detention in the first place!
Diana Prince: (Confused about the current situation) How did we all ever get a Saturday detention in the first place?
Jessica, Zee & Karen: (Incredulous at Diana's stupidity) DIANA!
Karen Beecher: (To Diana) Don't you remember how we're here?
Metropolis High, Four days ago...
(The girls were in their second period, which was Social Studies & they were at rapt attention as Vice Principal Frankie VeDito ,who happens to be an Italian American man, lectures his students about the American Revolutionary War. Vice Principal Frankie VeDito wore a grey suit, a black buttoned shirt underneath, a pair of grey pants & a pair of two black dress shoes. Frankie also sported messy curls. He even spoke with a very gruff queens accent.)
VP VeDito: (To his students) As most of you probably know, The American Revolution AKA the U.S. War Of Independence was the insurrection fought between 1775 and 1783 through which 13 of Great Britain's North American colonies threw off British rule to establish the sovereign United States of America, which was then founded with the Declaration of Independence in 1776. Said declaration was written & drafted by a committee made of five, count them, FIVE people & their names were John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, Roger Sherman & Robert Livingston.
(As Frankie continued his lecture, Kara started sniggering before giggling, which caught Frankie's attention.)
VP VeDito: (Annoyed at being interrupted) Okay! Whoever's giggling better tell me what's so funny about the American Revolution! Come on! Out with it! I like to hear a good joke as much as the next Italian American!
(At last Kara spoke.)
Kara Danvers: (Stifling her laughter) Uh, Vice Principal VeDito? Has anybody ever told you that you were a funny guy?
VP VeDito: (To Kara) What you mean I'm "funny"?
Kara Danvers: (Still trying to hold in her laughter) It's just that...The way you're lecturing us about some war that got our country it's identity.
VP VeDito: (To Kara) What's so funny about my lecture? Huh? You think I'm a clown? You think I'm here to amuse you?
Kara Danvers: (Nearly at a loss for words) Get outta here, man! I was thinking that you're funny like a cartoon.
Barbara Gordon: (Cutting in) As in "Bugs Bunny" funny like a cartoon.
(Jessica immediately raises her hand to stop Babs & Kara from getting in trouble.)
Jessica Cruz: (Pleading to Frankie VeDito) Sir, you'll have to forgive Babs & Kara. They're just looking for kicks at this point.
(Unfortunately for Jessica Cruz, Frankie VeDito wasn't having any of it.)
VP VeDito: (Losing patience with the girls) THAT'S IT! For interrupting my lecture about the American Revolution, You six girls get a Saturday detention!
Metropolis High, Present Day...
Karen Beecher: (To Diana) And that's how we got this Saturday detention!
Diana Prince: Oh...Right...
Kara Danvers: (To her friends about Mr. Chapin) Usually, His royal fatness watches over us during ANY detention. Unfortunately for us, He's having an outing with his family & Gregory is with them as well.
Diana Prince: (Confused) If Mr. Chapin is with his family on an outing, who is going to take care of us?
Zee Zatara: (Pointing in a direction) Vice Principal VeDito.
(In steps Vice Principal Frankie VeDito, who is indeed going to watch over the girls during their Saturday detention.)
VP VeDito: (Coldly to the girls) Morning, Wazz Bags! Detention is that-a-way!
(Frankie points in a direction that leads to the school library.)
VP VeDito: (Snappily) In the library! Get ready for the worst day of your natural lives!
(Frankie leads the girls to the library.)
40 minutes later...
(The girls enter the library & they each sit at their selected desks as Frankie looks at his watch.)
VP VeDito: (Addressing the girls) Okay...It is now 7:06 AM in Metropolis. You little brats have exactly seven & a half hours to sit here & think about the errors of your ways that got you here in the first place. During this time, you will not leave the library, you will not get up from your seats, you will not fall asleep & you will especially not talk to your neighbor!
(Kara takes out a skittle from the skittles bag, tosses it in the air & Babs catches it in her mouth & swallows it whole.)
VP VeDito: (Presenting a cardboard box) Now if any of you have any electronics on your person, place them in this box because in detention, there will be no beepers, no video games, no phone calls & no listening to music!
(The girls immediately place their Gameboys, game gears, Sony Walkmans, beepers, in fact any or all electronics that were available in the 90s into the box that was held by Frankie VeDito, who then places said box on top of one of the bookshelves.)
VP VeDito: You ladies can get your precious little toys back at the end of the day. When lunchtime comes, you pre-turds will each get a personal bowl of coleslaw wheeled directly to you on account you not being allowed to access the cafeteria nor ANY vending machine! You girls can either take your coleslaw or starve. At this point...I could actually care less!
Karen Beecher: (Raising her hand) Uh, sir? First of all, I think you mean "You COULDN'T care less!" Second, did you know that coleslaw is a perishable food? Because perishable foods have to be kept at either below 34 degrees or above 140 degrees or else-
VP VeDito: (Snapping at Karen) SHUT UP, HONEY PIE!
Jessica Crus: (Raising her hand) Can I interject? Karen does have a point about both perishable foods & especially your pronoun trouble, Sir. You did say you COULD care less, which leaves us to imply that you actually care about us.
VP VeDito: (Shouting at Jessica) WELL I DON'T! SO PUT A SOCK IN IT, SNOW WHITE!
Zee Zatara: (Agreeing with Jessica) Well you should have said "You COULDN'T care less!" But you didn't! Sooooooo...
Barbara Gordon: (Immediately cutting off Zee) Sooooooo...Do we get bathroom breaks?
VP VeDito: (To Barbara) Well, Side Salad...Nobody gets to use the bathroom!
Barbara Gordon: (Incredulous over not having any bathroom breaks) WHAAAAAAT?!
VP VeDito: YOU HEARD ME RIGHT! You girls will ALL either have to hold it until your detention is over or risk wetting your pants!
Karen Beecher: (Under her breath) At least Mr. Chapin would actually have the decency to let us access the cafeteria, use the vending machines & give us bathroom breaks!
VP VeDito: (On the verge of punishing the girls further) If I here one more word out of either of you clodhoppers...
Kara Danvers: (Purposefully looking for kicks) Word Up!
VP VeDito: (Losing it) THAT'S IT, GOLDILOCKS! YOU JUST BOUGHT YOURSELF AN EXTRA SATURDAY DETENTION!
Kara Danvers: (Nonchalantly) Did I get a good deal on it?
VP VeDito: TWO EXTRA SATURDAY DETENTIONS!
Kara Danvers: (Not even phased) Allow me to check my calendar.
VP VeDito: No need for that because now you have THREE EXTRA SATURDAY DETENTIONS!
Jessica Cruz: (Pleading to Frankie VeDito) Sir, you'll have to forgive Kara. She tends to be an instigator.
VP VeDito: (Changing gears on Jessica) Okay, Snow White! Now YOU just bought yourself an extra Saturday detention!
Jessica Cruz: (Shocked) All because I asked you to forgive Kara?
VP VeDito: TWO EXTRA SATURDAY DETENTIONS!
Jessica Cruz: (Pleading) I don't want anymore Saturday detentions!
VP VeDito: (Undeterred) THREE EXTRA SATURDAY DETENTIONS!
(Diana yelps in fear & puts her head down on her desk with both hands on top.)
Jessica Cruz: (Already crying) NO MAS DETENCIONES DE SABADO, POR FAVOR! WAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!
VP VeDito: FOUR EXTRA SATURDAY DETENTIONS!
Jessica Cruz: (With mascara running down her face) ARE YOU TRYING TO TARNISH MY PERMANENT RECORD!?
VP VeDito: FIVE EXTRA SATURDAY DETENTIONS!
Diana Prince: (In a whiny tone) Jessica, Stop!
Jessica Cruz: (Sobbing hysterically) DIANA! TELL VEDITO TO STOP! HE HAS GONE MUY LOCO!
Barbara Gordon: (Not knowing when to shut up) Yeah, Diana! He could give you some more Saturday detentions, too!
(Frankie turns towards Babs as she covers her mouth.)
VP VeDito: (In Bab's face) Actually...I GOT ONE FOR YOU, TOO, PUDDING STACK!
(Babs passes out from Frankie's vocal blast.)
VP VeDito: (Addressing the girls once again) Anybody else want a piece of me?
(Minus Jessica, who is still crying over her tarnished permanent record, the girls remain silent as not to cross Frankie further.)
VP VeDito: That's what I thought...Consider this your only warning...You mess with the cow...You get the udders...
(With that, Frankie slowly leaves the library as he faces the girls & the door closes.)
Zee Zatara: (To Frankie) YOU'RE A TOTAL JACKASS!

Author's Note: So as you can see, this is the first time I'm doing a Breakfast Club parody & as I stated earlier, this is my introduction to my 90s DCSHG universe. Please tell me what you think because this chapter is for setup purposes.
