First off, I'd like to thank all my reviewers. I was happy and shocked when only after like, 10 seconds of posted Chapter 2, I got so many reviews. Thank you so very Much. I'm glad you all enjoy my story. (I never thought I'd write a Batman story actually lol) THANK YOU ALL!
Now...I'd like to thank Harlequin for this chapter. Cause if you hadn't said "Alfred would of told Bruce about The Joker" in your review, The idea for this chapter would of never came...THANK YOU!!"
(This is...My 2nd fav chapter (lol, only out of three. haha)
ENJOY!

The Dark Knight
Saving Lives, Ruins Others
Time Won't Tell
"I need you to do something Mr. Pennyworth...Tomorrow night, I need you to go out for...lets say..I don't know..Three hours? Do whatever you want, as long as your gone for that long, Kay?" The Joker stepped forward, closing the gap between the two. "Now, Don't go and tell Mr. Wayne that...let it be, our little secret."
Alfred sighed softly and he looked to Bruce's bedroom door quietly, then he walked over and slowly opened it. Looking in, he saw a rare sight. Bruce Wayne was sprawled on his back, sleeping! Sadly though, he was sleeping on the bed horizontal and in his suit. Alfred laughed softly and he shook his head. "Oh Master Wayne...you never fail to amuse me." He then closed the door and walked away laughing, but his laughter stop as his he caught a glimpse of a card resting under the entrance door. Slowly he walked over and nealed down and picked it up. Turning it over he was greeted with a joker card and words. "3 Hours, With Mr. Bruce Wayne!"
"Alfred!"
Alfred quickly stood and he looked towards Bruce's room. "What is it sir!?"
Bruce quickly came walking out of his room adjusting his tie and fixing the cuffs of his suit. "I need the time...Oh, and I'm skipping on breakfast again. Hope you didn't make anything, wouldn't want it to be a waste." As he went through the room fixing himself up and grabbing a few things Alfred nodded looking over the card.
"Ah, no sir, I've been cleaning...It's ten by the way. Sir, I've been meaning to tell you something. If you have a second." "Just about Alfred, what is it?" Alfred lowered his hand with the card and he slipped it into his back pocket, crossing his arms behind him. "Sir, someone will be coming to see you later tonight...it will be somewhat of a meeting, for three hours. I suggest you..."
Bruce's cell phone then went off and he quickly answered it. "Hello? Ah...Yes, I'm on my way now. I got a bit..side tracked, I guess."
Alfred quickly turned to him. "Sir I suggest you be prepared...uh, come home early if you can."
As he spoke, Bruce walked past him heading for the door, blocking him out.
"Sir, Tonight The..."
The door slammed and Bruce's steps faded and Alfred sighed in defeat.

As Bruce sprinted down stairs, he talked on his phone the whole way. Words of the press conference came all at the same time, words jumbled together, and being in a hurry didn't help process any of it. Climbing into his NEW Lamborghini, Bruce started it up and it quickly roared to life. "Yeah, just...get Lucious to hold them up. I'm coming now." Quickly he hung up the phone and he threw his phone onto the seat next to him and he sat for a second, starting to let things come to him slowly.
"Sir I suggest you be prepared...uh, come home early if you can. Sir, Tonight the..."
Bruce blinked, having no clue what Alfred was going at, so he opened the door and climbed out of the car and just as he was about to leave and head back to his room, his phone began to ring. Cringing in frustration, he climbed into his car and quickly sped off down the road.

From the penthouse window, Alfred watched quietly gripping in his hand a small envelope.

I didn't think I'd post this tonight (Today, WHATEVER!) but I just got so into it, I just had to. I wasn't going to end it like this though, but I wanted to post it tonight so I did.
The chapter of this story. You may be confused in how it fits. I think it fits cause, Alfred was trying to tell Bruce what was going to happen but he was in such a hurry he never got to hear. And basically "Time Won't Tell" Huh, fits right?
I don't know if anyone else notices, but this story seems to be revolved around Alfred. Lol. And I don't know why. But oh well, it's liked...who cares!
This is my own story and i'm getting excited for whats coming up (really though, I have no clue what I'm going to do with The Joker and Bruce together, lol)
Again, I thank ALL of my reviewers. THANK YOU!!
Allow me to say this...
At the part where Bruce was sleeping, COME ON! I just had to put that...Bruce, or should I say Christian Bale is getting cuter and cuter the more I see him (I honestly don't know why though) and I just had to put that part in. (I saw it in my head...CUTE!)
Review...and hope you ENJOYED! Look out for Chapt 4.
