Read the passage below. First, identify Pepper's motivation in this passage and explain how his motivation causes conflict for Iggy. Then, explain how Iggy's response to the conflict helps to move the story forward.

Passage Every year, each class at Davis Middle School elects a class representative to participate in important school events. Iggy has been his class rep for the last two years. He takes the responsibility seriously and wants to keep the job, but he also feels guilty no one else has had a chance, so he's pretty sure he won't run again. Then it is announced that the class rep will get to meet action star Bud Delum, and Pepper, the meanest kid in school, suddenly becomes interested in the job. Pepper knows he'd be a terrible representative, but Bud Delum is his hero. And with Iggy stepping down, he'll cruise to victory. Iggy can't stand for a bad representative to take office, so he pushes his guilt aside and reenters the election, winning by a landslide. As his first act as representative, Iggy asks Pepper to take his place at the event with Bud Delum, helping Pepper understand what it means to be kind to others.

Pepper has come to the decision to do the right thing and step down from running for class representative,to give someone else a chance at it. When he finds out the school bully is going to run for the position for all the wrong reasons just to meet his hero. Pepper having good faith runs for class rep for the good of everyone and wins,but settles the conflict smoothly by letting Ivy stand in for him the day his hero makes a appearance at the school.
