Susan and Carmen united

The Prince went to the infirmary to check on Susan and Carmen.

"Are they okay?" he asked the nurse.

"The beating they got was brutal but they should recover soon."

"You stood up for us." Susan said weakly.

"It's your fault that Gina did this," Carmen said. "You told Gina that..."

"Then why would Susan be whipped too?" the Prince asked. "Can't you see this rivalry between the two of you is pointless? Gina doesn't care about either one of you."

"Cutie's right," Susan said. "Gina betrayed us for no god damn reason."

"Call me Prince. I have dirt on Gina and plan to take over the Royal Magnificence. I want your help to do this."

"Yes... Prince." Susan said.

"I want to make Gina pay too," Carmen said. "But what happens when you take over. I still want to at least be your right hand."

"That's not possible," the Prince said. "I plan to install a council under me."

"A council?" Susan asked.

"Once my position as Prince of the Royal Magnificence is assured, I intend to take over the entire school. The problem is that once that happens, I am not going to be able to keep track on the entire student body by myself. I will need people I can trust. I've already recruited Tom to keep watch over Gina when she's at home. The two of you would be members of the council, neither one of you outranking the other one. I also intend to add six others to my council. I will warn you these members will probably include nerds."

"That's no problem," Susan said. "Gina's personal beliefs about nerd culture is outdated anyway. The truth is that her faction will probably collapse in on itself without our help. I just want to make sure the school itself benefits from your rule."

"And when I rule this school, you two get to punish Gina. Do we have a deal?" the Prince said.

Susan and Carmen both agreed to work for the Prince, who went to recruit his next ally.
