Elena looks over at her younger and noticably taller sister standing next to her.
"I don't know..."
"Come on, let me do it."
"I'm not sure if I trust you with a brush let alone to do my hair."
"When have I ever had a bad idea?"
Elena crosses her arms and leans back against the couch.
"What about that time you forced me to watch the noteb..."
"Its not my fault dad walked in during the sex part...please."
"No. Just drop it."
"Fine." Kate looks over at her sister dejectedly for a moment before turning to the tv and huffing in annoyance. "Never anything on friday night."
"We could watch a movie."
"Fine, but nothing horror."
"Then we could watch..."
"I swear if you say batman I'm gonna...what about the avengers?"
Elena rolls her eyes. "How can you like the avengers but not batman?"
"Because that movie is awesome."
"Not as good as dark knight. Besides, I'm getting enough of mythology in school. Long story short, everybody slept with everybody."
"Whatever, but no batman."
"You could at least watch the old cartoon. Its where Harley came from."
"I know. You've told me."
Elena pushes herself off the couch and walks into the kitchen. "You want anything?"
"Yeah grab me another coke." Kate calls to Elena.
A few minutes later Elena returns with her soda and a can of coke.
"So what else could we watch?"
"I don't know."
"American horror story?"
"Which season? That second one freaks me out."
"First, then we could watch Tate."
Kate beams exitedly and dashes into another room to retrieve the dvd. A minute later she returns and pops in the dvd. She plops back on the couch and hits play.
Kate smiles exitedly and takes a sip of her soda. "Why are all the hot ones evil?"
"They can't all be."
Kate counts on her fingers as she speaks. "Tate, Damon Salvatore, Loki, That bad dude from that one show..."
"Scarecrow..."
Kate pauses and gives Elena a look. "He isn't cute, hes a weirdo who runs around in a potato sack."
"Are you kidding? Hes one of the four."
Kate rolls her eyes. "Here we go..."
"My top four. Harley, Scarecrow, Riddler, and Hush. Now a lot of people forget about Hush, but I love the character. Hes like firefly, he just oozes awesome. If you were to see him in real life...not many bad guys can say they cut out someones heart for revenge."
"Yeah whatever. Shut up your nerd talk and hit play."
Elena glares at Kate for a moment before picking up the remote and pushing play. She turns back to Kate, temporarily ignoring the tv.
"So what if I like this stuff? If Gotham were real..."
"I'd get back to Loki while you'd go playing with those sorry excuses for supervillians."
"They are much darker then you think they are..."
"Yeah well shut up."
Elena and Kate glare at each other for a moment before turning to the tv to notice the dvd hasn't started. Elena looks at the remote in confusion and presses play again.
"Now look, you broke the freakin dvd. Great."
Elena shoots Kate a look. "Maybe you put it in wrong."
"Let me see it."
Kate grabs the remote but Elena doesn't let go.
"Stop!"
"No, you'll break it!"
Suddenly a wave of blackness sweeps over their vision and both sisters black out.
...
Kate wakes first on the cold ground of the city street. Instantly alarmed, she shakes Elena awake. Elena rubs her eyes and looks around in confussion.
"Where the hell are we?"
Kate crosses her arms. "How would I know seeing as I woke up two minutes ago?!"
"Well, lets not panic yet. Do you have your phone?"
Kate checks her pockets and groans, tilting her head up in exasperation.
"My phone was plugged up."
Elena checks around for hers as well as sighs. "Mine was on the coffee table."
Kate looks over at Elena, then their surroundings. "We are so screwed. Dads gonna kill us."
"First things first, lets walk around a little, maybe we can figure out where we are."
"Fine."
Kate and Elena walk side by side on the cracked sidewalk. The longer they walk, the more alarmed they get by their surroundings. After a few minutes Elena notices something shining in the night sky. She stops Kate and points up. Kate looks to see what Elena saw, the bat signal. While Kate stares in disbelief, Elena studies her surroundings more carefully and gulps. Upon noticing some grafiti in a nearby alleyway.
"Well Kate, you were right."
Kate looks at Elena with alarm.
"And whats that?"
"We are so screwed."
"Why?" Kates voice cracking slightly.
"Because I think we are in the bad part of Gotham."
Kate gets wide eyed. "Theres actually a bad part of Gotham?!"
"Yeah, and we're in it...we really need to get out of here before we get kidnapped, tortured, or worse."
"What could be worse?!"
"Lets hope we don't see any clowns and you'll never find out."
Kate points at the sky. "B...but batmans out. He'll protect us!"
"He isn't superman you know. That probably means that someones robbing a bank or something."
"Crap! Then how do you suggest we get out of here?"
Elena looks around. "Well, as long as we don't attract attention, we should be fine. So take a deep breath and relax."
