Red-handed
The final bell rang and all the other kids ran out for the school. They had homework to do, after all, and a new episode of Starforce 5 is on tonight! Meh, SO over that show. But me and Jackie had to stay. Stay and wait for Mr. Harrison to leave his room. When he did, Johnny picked the lock to his room so we could get the camera. Glad he didn't catch me using my powers on the bolts earlier. I may tell him one day who I am, but not anytime soon. Tim would be so mad... I moved the cabinet out of the way and Johnny took the camera. He then hooked it up to a laptop. Something was weird about this Laptop, though.
"It looks pretty heavy. Like it's made of iron..."
"It's a damage resistant laptop. Soldiers and policemen use these. You could shoot this with a rifle and it'd be fine!"
"Wow! Another thing you found in your dad's closet?"
"Nah, he gave me this. It's actually an older one he used on the job. The new ones the GCPD used are said to be able to survive heavy explosions! Had to do alot of software updates on this one, though. Pretty annoying..."
He plugs in a wire from the micro-camera to the laptop and a video appears on the screen, along with sound. Johnny just fast forwards the video until we get what we're looking for. Carter and Mr. Harrison in the room! Even I could see what was happening; Mr. Harrison handed off some papers to Carter, and Carter gave him a roll of money. How wrong that a teacher can be like this! But I heard something weird in the video.
"Did Mr. Harrison say something about the money making his mom happy?"
"There are rumors that Mr. Harrison still lives with his mom 'cause he's too afraid to move out. Guess they're true, huh?"
"Indeed they are, my meddlesome friends."
That voice...so annoying...only belongs to one person. Carter. He was standing in the doorway to the classroom, a smug smile on his face and two big teenagers behind him.
"I knew something was wrong when I noticed my locker opened and my sheets gone. And I couldn't help but hear that conversation you had with the Principle. And now it seems you have evidence of the transactions me and Mr. Harrison take part in. Hm."
"Yeah Carter, we do. I knew you were a lying scumbag when I saw you. What else could come from the son of a Gotham politician!"
"And only a nosy loser like you could come from...oh, like I care about your family. But I can promise you that you'll regret insulting mine like you just did AND interfering with my work with Mr. Harrison. If only I could do the same to that upper class kid from Brentwood. Drake, I think his name was..."
HAHAHA! Even out of costume, Tim STILL saves the day! but now it's my turn! I mean, sure, Johnny's helping, but I'm sure Steph helped Tim to deal with Carter the first time around...right?
"And lets see here. Mr. Harrison locks his door when he leaves, so you broke in. That's worth suspension. And I see you hid that camera behind the cabinet. In order to do so, you would have to remove the blots keeping it in place, so tampering with school property. Heh, You two are good as done here."
"You think we're afraid of you, Carter? You're just a no-good lier! I've dealt with worse than you!"
"Yes, I know the stories about you and Nelson. Very David and Goliath. But how will you handle my two Goliaths here? Hehe, they'll have fun with you two, destroy the evidence, and I'll have you out of my hair for good! I think I'll tell Principle Moron right now!"
The two teenagers walked into the room as Carter ran off. They stretching their necks and cracking their knuckles, ready to fight. Fighting was the last thing I wanted to do, though. I've done enough of that while I've been here, and I've only been here a few weeks! Me and Johnny step father back as they come closer. There's gotta be a way out. A way to win. Robin and Spoiler would find an answer, so should I...
"Jackie, look. I know you don't like fighting bullies and all, but right now, could you forget about that? Please?...."
