Hey! It's me! Back with another new story, co written with Cherryblosssom24! We only own Cordelia and Calliope, not Young Justice and any other references I place in here. Hope you all like, and please review!
"Cordelia! Calliope! Daddy wants to see you!" The Jokers maniacal laughter echoed through the warehouse, and makeshift home, as the two girls rolled their eyes.
"Why didn't we run away when we had the chance?" Cordelia, known as Coral to friends and her sister, groaned as she stood and stretched.
"Because he'd find us, that's why," Calliope, or Calli, arched an eyebrow.
"We should go, you know. Before he drags us any deeper into this," Coral led the way out of the door. The twins both had their fathers pale skin, and their mothers platinum blond hair. Corals eyes were her mother's deep, mysterious brown, while Calli had mischievous green.
The warehouse was never meant to be a house, that's for certain, but the Joker didn't seem to care. Their parents disappeared from the warehouse for many weeks at a time, to Arkham, probably, and sent them back a regular income. Of course they knew how their parents came by the money, but they pretended to be ignorant. They learnt, the hard way, that ignorance is bliss.
"Father," Calli and Coral greeted as they entered the main room of the warehouse, "what do you want?"
"Well my daughters, I would like to take you with me on one of my... excursions. You can meet the Batman," Joker giggled, tempting them with something they knew they had no choice in.
"What will we wear?" Coral asked, hands on her hips.
"These," Joker brought out two full body suits, covering everything except the neck and face. One was completely black, a large red diamond on the chest. There was a red domino mask to go with it, red boots, a set of bow and arrows, and a can of wash out red hair colour. The other was pure purple, a large green spade symbol on the chest. There was also a green domino mask, green boots, a set of green throwing knives, and a can of wash out green hair colour.
"You gotta be kidding me," Calli deadpanned, staring at the outfits.
"Nope, here, the red ones Cordelias and the green is Calliopes. You get to wear my colours dear," he chuckled, handing the girls their body suits.
"If we ever do this again," Calli started as the twins left the room.
"Don't let Dad design the outfits," Coral finished, nodding in agreement.
The girls stepped out of the bathroom a minute later, minus the mask, having just inserted the colour into their shoulder length hair. They had only put a streak in, on their left side, just to be slightly rebellious and not to meet the full end of their fathers wrath.
"You look wonderful," their mother, Harley, gushed over the two 13 year old girls, who glared.
"Ready to go?" Joker chuckled, adjusting his new purple suit.
"Spade and Diamond are perimeter, Harley and I will do the big stuff," he designated proudly, smiling down at his daughters.
"I'm guessing you're Spade and I'm Diamond?" Coral leant over to her twin, gesturing towards the symbols on their suits.
"No, I'm Spock and you're Lizard," Calli, or Spade now, rolled her eyes.
Calli had always been the sarcastic one, but she was slightly less sane than her sister, sometimes accidentally letting her crazy laugh out that sent shivers to the bone of everyone, even their father.
Coral, however, was still slightly insane, but she was extremely shy, only being herself around her sister, and a few select friends. Once she was comfortable around you though, she was pretty energetic, and obsessed with food and eating.
"Move out," Joker clapped his hands to the right of his head, his grin almost splitting his face in two. Which, upon further reflection by the girl, had already happened. Except by a knife, and not a smile.
The so called family moved quietly out of the warehouse, and to the rooftop of a building making up an edge of crime alley.
"Diamond, Spade, head down there and get some goons. This is gonna be so much fun!" Joker clapped, Harley giggled while the girls sighed, hopping neatly down into the alley. After all, they had been doing heavy training all their life.
They walked down the dirty, dank alley, towards where all the hired 'help' waited.
"And what's some pretty ladies like yourselves doing in Crime Alley?" An obviously intoxicated voice came from behind them. Spade sneered, easily flipping the poor guy over her shoulder.
"Don't mess with the Joker Twins," Diamond sighed, before the two continued walking to the work place.
Hope this was a good enough start for you! I have about 6 chapters pre written, and I will update on Thursdays. Yes, that does also mean tomorrow... please review, follow and favourite!
