The Gala.

here was a chill about the air. Puddles of murky rainwater scattered the sidewalks; the familiar sound of sirens and agitated queues of traffic swelled from amidst the concrete buildings. It was the Financial District's very own New Years Day, a turning of a page for the accountants and CEOs that had been so closely monitoring their revenue streams. Taxes had been filed, profits calculated; the city could take a deep sigh of relief before thinking about the remaining 364 days to come.
Inside Gotham Hall, a former bank turned premier events venue, attendants were working feverishly to lay tables, count centrepieces, test microphones. ThinkFund's annual gala would welcome over 200 esteemed guests, all gleaned from the upper percentile of American society, to celebrate and thank those who made significant sponsorships, pledges, and donations to the charity's disadvantaged youth program. Amongst them, two of the most infamous of rivals: The Maynards and the Warners.
Seldom did the two warring families have the patience to be in the same room as the other. For tonight, however, ballgowns must be donned, tuxedos ironed, and photo-ready smiles plastered across each of their faces. The question is, how long can they keep it together?
