5:47pm
A glass window allowed the other detectives and officers to peer in at Gordon and the Joker. Alexis listened intensively to everything that was being said. Gordon was being very calm, but wasn't making that much progress.
Gordon checked his watch. " I don't have time to sit here and listen to your little jokes."
Joker shrugged his shoulders. " What's keeping you here? And I'll admit, my jokes aren't the greatest, but that doesn't mean you can criticize them."
Gordon sighed. " You are truly hopeless."
" I wouldn't say hopeless. You just don't know how to deal with people like me. I think that you should just let me go before some else gets hurt." Joker grinned.
Gordon looked at him, confused. " Who are you targeting now?"
" Well I suppose I could tell you." Joker licked his lips. " Harvey. You remember Harvey." He held up a button with a picture of Harvey Dent. " I believe in Harvey Dent. I mean come on! Who actually wears these?!"
" Where's Harvey?" Gordon asked.
" Oh he's fine." Joker replied. " For now at least."
Alexis sighed. This wasn't working. She walked over to the big metal door. " Open it." She instructed.
The officers looked at one another before turning back to her. " We can't. He's too dangerous."
Alexis rolled her eyes. " Just open it!"
There was a loud buzzing noise and Alexis pushed open the heavy door. Gordon stood up. "Alexis get out. Anything can happen.'
" I'm not afraid of him." Alexis replied.
Joker laughed. " Oh, but you should be."
Alexis glared at him. Her brown eyes meeting his green eyes. She was filled with rage and fear at the same time. " You honestly think that everyone is afraid of you?"
" Okay beautiful. We can either sit here and finish our therapy session or I can tell you what's going to happen. That way you have enough time to call your precious hero." Joker said.
Alexis was being stubborn, but finally gave in. " Fine."
" Harvey is across town in a apartment. He is holding a bomb and if he let's go. The entire building will explode!" Joker said, laughing hysterically.
" And does it have an address?" Alexis asked.
Joker laughed. " An address? Address? Of course. 1362 Prescott street."
" I'm there." A deep voice replied. Batman steeped out of the shadows. He slammed the Joker down onto the table.
" My unit and I will meet you there." Gordon replied.
Batman and Gordon both headed for the door. Gordon turned around to see the Joker laying on the table laughing like a mad man. " Come on Alexis.'
Alexis nodded. She followed Gordon and Batman out, turning back to look at the Joker once more.
6:03pm
It was getting dark outside and Alexis was sitting patiently in a chair. The police station was still and quiet. Joker was still in his cage where they had left him. An officer was watching over him. She picked up her jacket and walked outside.
It had been ten minutes and she still hadn't heard anything.
" Alexis!"
Alexis turned to the sound of the voice. " Harvey?"
Harvey hugged her. " How are you?"
" Me? Harvey, how did you get out? Did they come for you?
Harvey looked confused. " What are you talking about?"
Alexis thought to herself for a second. " He never kidnapped you. It was a trick."
" Who? I've been at a fundraiser."
" Oh god." An explosion occurred from inside the station. Smoke filled the air making it impossible to see anything. Alexis cold make out a figure. A loud ear piercing laugh identified the figure.
Alexis grabbed Harvey's shoulder. " Run Harvey!" She screamed above the laughter.
Thanks so much for the reviews. Yeah I also love the part in my last chapter when Gordon says " You think you're funny." And Joker replies. " I am the Joker." That just popped in my head. So thanks again! )
