Just Joking Around

Chapter 1

Cassiopeia Jenner groaned as she heard her alarm buzz telling her to get up and go to work. She tried to reach up and turn it off so that she could have a couple more minuets peaceful sleep but to no avail. She ended up landing on the floor in a mess of bedcovers. She found a small opening in the duvet, crawled out and put it back on the bed in a heap. She preferred it that way. She then walked over to the full length mirror and stared at herself. She was slim with fair skin.

Her hair was chocolate brown, long and at the moment was a complete mess but she knew that when it was washed and brushed it was perfectly styled into ringlets. Her eyes were a deep blue a quality that ran throughout her entire family.

The name Cassiopeia was chosen by her mother who favored the Greek civilization. It was shortened to Cassie by her father and her friends. She stepped into the shower and sung along to her shower radio. She had quite a good voice her friends often told her that she should have become a singer but she decided to go to university instead and get a doctorate in criminology. She then got out of the shower; dried herself off and changed into the work clothes that she had laid out last night.

They were a white blouse and a black pencil skirt. She put on a pair of black tights and then proceeded to her shoes which were a pair of black high heels with bows at the top. She looked out of her full length windows at Gotham City whilst she was brushing and drying her hair. Today it looked pretty peaceful as the sun was rising over the horizon. Her flat was the penthouse apartment and lucky for her, it was her dad who bought it. As a twenty first birthday present none the less. On a day like today she 

could see all the way to the burnt down wreckage that was once the great Wayne Manor.

She looked at the time and run out of the room grabbing her papers for work. She ran into the modern kitchen, grabbed her keys and a banana and run out the front door. She called the lift up and got in it thankful for once that the lift was extraordinary fast. She stopped at the underground garage and got in her car. A black SUV yet another present from her father. Her being an only child it gave the chance for her parents to spoil her rotten. Eventually she arrived at her work place.
