Goddess of Wisdom. Note: This is a gift for Assassin's creed fan, I hope you like it! Plus thank you to miss singing in the rain for letting me use your poem. :D
Hope you enjoy!
Athena stood in her office at Arkham Asylum running her fingers across the book shelf.
She was meant to be at home now, but D' wouldn't be in and she didn't want to spend another night on her own at her apartment.
So she had opted for spending time alone in her office at work.
If you could even call it work, it was more a place that gave you stress free of charge.
There was a slight knock at the door.
"Come in?" said Athena.
"Hiya' Athena, my names Jester. I'm here to protect you while the riot is going." said a white skinned girl, with black and white humbug styled hair.
Athena blinked a couple of time. "Riot? what riot?"
"The one that's just started. Don't worry, I won't let any body hurt Ya'." cried Jester as she walked in and shut the door.
Athena bit her lip. "Why are you protecting me?"
Jester looked up at her and giggled. "Eddie's got a soft spot for Ya'. Told me to keep a watchful eye on you while he was….. somewhere else." explained Jester.
"You're friends with Edward?" asked Athena.
Jester grinned and nodded her head. "I can tell you so much about him. He's just worried about you is all, and he want's to protect you."
"Why?" asked Athena.
Jester titled her head to the side. "You seem to like asking questions. Maybe that's why he likes you. To be honest, I don't know why he wants to protect you, but you see I don't go asking."
"Why don't you ask him?" asked Athena as she sat down on her desk.
"This isn't a session Doc' I don't have to tell you." snapped Jester.
Athena shrugged. "You don't have to, I was just intrigued."
"Now you're sounding like Eddie and that ain't a good thing." replied Jester.
"Who started the riot?" asked Athena. "Are my friends okay?"
"Depends who your friends are." replied Jester, as she walked over to the book shelf and began to read the titles of the many books.
"Doctor Cassidy, Doctor Whistler and Aaron Cash." replied Athena.
"Doc' Cassidy is fine as is Whistler. Mist Terry won't let anyone near them, she likes them." explained Jester.
"Who's Mist Terry?" asked Athena.
Jester waved her off. "Someone I hope you won't have to meet."
"And Aaron? Is he okay?"
"He'll be fine, as long as he stays away from Croc. Waylon still hasn't finished with him." said Jester as she pulled a book from the book case.
"Who started the riot?" asked Athena as she watched the insane girl walk around the room clutching a book.
"Riddle me riddle me ree. A hawk sat upon a tree, and says to himself said he, 'la what a fine bird I be.' But the bat flies above in the air and looks at the hawk down there, and though the hawk may try, he may never fly as high." muttered Jester.
"Edward started the riot! But why?"
"Why do we do anything Doc'? Besides you're his Doctor, surly you should know." teased Jester.
Athena sighed. "That poem… I have never heard the last part before."
"That's because a friend of mine, Miss singing in the rain, invented it and I asked if I could use it. She said I could so I have." Jester grinned at Athena. "Don't worry I'll be gone soon."
"But I thought you said you were going to protect me?"
"The riot's almost over. Time for me to get going. Thanks for the book Doc'. Look after yourself." and then Jester left.
THE END.
