"Mr Wayne wake up! It's rude to ignore your guests" the room slowly came into focus the unwelcoming familiar voice came from a dark corner of the room where a table and two chairs where set out "finally the sleeping princess is awake, bag him boys!" the room went black once again.
Pain pulsed through my head and a faint voice rang louder with every pulse of pain "Mr Wayne, oh Mr Wayne, you look like you're in pain! Do you know what the best medicine is for that? Laughter!" That voice! The Joker? How did he manage to get in my house without tripping any alarms? And more importantly how does he know I am the batman?
"What do you want with me?"
"Now let's not play any games Mr Wayne Can I call you Bruce? I feel like we are on first name bases now I mean I have been to your home and I have watched you sleep and now you're at mine!" he leaned in to whisper something to me "you know what? I know you're secret Battykins" His maniacal laughter struck my head like a hammer striking a bell I winced in pain "it looks like our second guest is waking up!"
"Where am I? What's with all this!"
Alfred! What does the joker want with him? I had to do something I couldn't let Alfred die because of my actions "Leave Alfred out of this Joker! This is between me and you!"
"There are always causalities in war Brucey! Innocent by standards always get caught up in cross fire, Alfred is just one of those he signed his death when he got involved in your silly urge to dress up like a kid on Halloween and stop Villains. The moment a true Bad guy shows up you get caught off guard and wake up tied to a chair you should have stopped a long time ago before more people you cared about got hurt, i still cant believe you where selfish enough to make your parents leave the Theatre early!"
"How do you know about that! How do you know where my parents died?"
"I was there." The Joker started chuckling "Jack Naiper? Ring any bells?" The joker grinned "now then back to this causality of war!" The Joker walked towards Alfred who was still getting used to the light in the room The Joker grabbed the back of his head Alfred grunted with pain "now let's put a smile on that face of yours Alfred!"
No! I dare not show any emotion because the Joker will pay on that and make Alfred suffer even more "Master Wayne *cough* I am sorry I let this happen!"
"It is okay Alfred I am sorry i got you in to this"
"Now isn't this touching, i am tearing up! Boohoo!" once last sound of pain and then silence, Alfred hit the ground. I tried to move towards the Joker but I couldn't I was bound and with my head still not clear I couldn't think straight and come up with an escape plan.
'You won't get away with this!'
'Oh but I already have! In three two' a gun was cocked 'one, Night Batty!'
