Linda was always afraid to go outside after dark. Of course this was when her roommate wanted the garbage thrown out. Walking down the stairs of her apartment building she already felt a knot in her stomach.
The dumpster wasn't even close by, she had to walk to the end of her street. 'Oh man' she thought to herself once seeing how dark it actually was. 'Calm down Linda you'll be fine' a voice in her head said over and over.
It felt like someone was following her. She looked around and saw a van driving very slow alongside her just a few steps behind. She kept on walking now a little faster. The van drove faster then stopped and two thugs grabbed her, causing her to drop the bags. They threw her in the van and shut the door.
"What the hell is going on? let me out of here!". She screamed to whoever was listening. It was dark and she couldn't see anything. "Let me out please". She screamed again this time with tears forming in her eyes. No one would answer her. Instead of screaming again she just gave up and laid down in a fatal position. Knowing that whoever just grabbed her off the street will most likely either rape her, kill her, or both.
About half an hour later (even though it felt like more to her) the van finally stopped. The same two thugs pulled her out of the van. They sat her down on a chair and one pointed a gun at her while the other one tied her up. Somehow she knew they weren't the ones in charge and she should save her questions for the boss whenever he or she showed up.
"Listen up, you are to remain silent. We aren't going to gag you. The boss wants you able to talk but if you scream he'll probably shoot you on the spot". One of them told her then walked to the side. She nodded then looked at the floor. She wanted to cry but she didn't want to admit weakness. Looking around she noticed she was in some kind of an abandoned warehouse.
This is the kind of things she would rather avoid. The garbage could had waited, why did her roommate insist on her taking it out at night?
Almost right away someone came in threw another door. He was tall maybe 6'3. She couldn't see him right away but as he got closer she stared at his face. His face was painted white, his eyes painted black, and a long red painted smile. It was the Joker. One look at him sent her heart to the pit of her stomach.
"Looky here we have a guest" He started laughing.
She stayed quiet. Her eyes now filled with tears that haven't fallen down her cheeks yet.
"Linda how are you?" He said as if they were old friends. It made her want to vomit.
"How do you know my name?" She had thought it might had been just a random Kidnapping but now she wasn't so sure.
"I know you, I've known you for a while now". His eyes were burning into her face. She looked away only for a second when he grabbed her face hard and forces her to look at him. "What's wrong? Don't like what you see?"
"How do you know me? I've never met you in my life. I only know you from the news".
"I've been watching you. Quite the good little girl aren't you?"
"What are you talking about?"
"You go to school everyday, do your homework, then you volunteer at the hospital don't you?" He licked his lips.
"How long have you been watching me?" Now she was crying.
"Oh Linda Linda Linda, Sweet little Linda. I've got big plans for you."
"What do you want with me?" She screamed. He scared her. She prayed he wouldn't kill her but she knew better. He was in the news constantly for all the murders he had committed.
"I think you need a little fun I your life, that's exactly what I'm going to give you my dear" He started laughing again.
She felt a sharp pain on the side of her head and then everything went dark.
