Chapter 1
Some people think they have a bad life, they think that they have the worst family and that there life is a mess. My life really is crazy, but, for some reason, I feel everything turned out perfectly. My father is crazy, really. He's always in and out of jail and hardly ever home. My mother is crazy too. To tell you the truth, my father hates my mother; she is practically a huge game to him. I have an adopted sister called Ivy and she is 3 years older then me. She has long brown hair with flowers in it.
Anyway, I was always out with my best friend Toby. We always went to the costume shops and tried them on.
"How do I look?" Toby came out of one of the change rooms with a green suit and hat on. He also had a green cane in his hand.
"Evil!" I laughed.
"Evil?"
"Yeah, evil. Like a movie villain."
"Haha! I'm getting it!"
"No your not!" I laughed. "When are you going to wear it?"
"At a party, or just for fun! Come on JD! "
"Alright then, I'm getting this!" I picked up the first two things I could find. A clown mask and green hair spray.
"Oh, so you're the Joker now are you?"
We both laughed as we walked to the counter to pay. I loved hanging out with Toby. He was a lot like me. His parents were both in jail and he was practically alone most of the time. The only difference was that my mother was at home a lot more then she was in jail and I was a girl!
"So, I was wondering wether I could stay at your place tonight. As long as your mum is there that is." Said Toby.
"Just call her Harley. She'll be home for all I know but Dads in jail again." I replied.
"Thanks, my grandparents are at some party and I probably wont be aloud to go with them. I'm probably safer with you guys, I think." He said worried.
"Don't worry. Mum is fine; she's not like Dad. Dad will probably not get out either. Even if he does he wont hurt us. He might be the Joker but he has raised me since I was a kid. He would never do anything to upset me and killing you would defiantly hurt me."
Toby smiled. I didn't blame him for fearing the Joker. He was a very smart man and it didn't really matter how innocent anybody was, he would still kill them. Just not me or Toby, I hoped.
