Alright Chapter 7 is finally here, and sorry for all the quotes but I thought it worked with the story, and now that it's finally spring break I will hopefully have chapter 8 soon!

(I don't own Yu Yu Hakusho Characters, just Faye!)


(Gotham National Bank Manager: Oh, criminals in this town used to believe in things. Honor. Respect. Look at you! What do you believe in, huh? WHAT DO YOU BELIEVE IN?
[
Bozo leans down and sticks a grenade in the manager's mouth]
Bozo: I believe whatever doesn't kill you, simply makes you...
[
takes off his mask]
The Joker: ...stranger.)

Hiei couldn't believe that Faye liked this movie.

(Gambol: [to The Joker] Give me one reason why I shouldn't have my boy here pull your head off.
The Joker: How about a magic trick?
[
pulls out a pencil and sticks it upright into the table]
The Joker: I'm gonna make this pencil disappear.
[
Gambol's thug walks over to kill The Joker, who slams his face into the pencil and kills him]
The Joker: Ta-daa! It's...gone)

Or how she thought this Joker freak was amazing.

"Maybe the girl is evil if she likes this psychopath."

(The Chechen: What do you propose?
The Joker: It's simple. We, uh, kill the Batman.
[
mobsters laugh]
Salvatore Maroni: If it's so simple, why haven't you done it already?
The Joker: If you're good at something, never do it for free)

Hiei looked over to the girl, he saw that her hair was still slightly damp from her shower, and starting curl.

"Hn."

"Something wrong Hiei?" Kurama telepathically asked him, not tearing his gaze away from the movie.

"This girl is bothering me."

Kurama got a surprised look on his face. "How?"

"How can she think this Joker is amazing?"

(The Joker: You know, I'll settle for his loved ones.
Gentleman at Party: We're not intimidated by thugs!
The Joker: [as he smacks his lips] You know, you remind me of my father.
[
the Joker pulls out his switchblade and brings it to the Gentleman's mouth]
The Joker: I hated my father!
Rachel Dawes: [off-screen] Okay, stop!
[
turns to face Rachel, tosses the Gentleman to his thugs and approaches Rachel, adjusting his hair with the knife]
The Joker: Well, hello, beautiful. You must be Harvey's squeeze, hm? And you *are* beautiful.
[
the Joker hovers around the incredibly nervous Rachel]
The Joker: Well, you look nervous. Is it the scars? You want to know how I got 'em?
[
He grabs Rachel's head and positions the knife by her mouth]
The Joker: Come here. Hey! Look at me. So I had a wife, beautiful, like you, who tells me I worry too much. Who tells me I ought to smile more. Who gambles and gets in deep with the sharks... Look at me! One day, they carve her face. And we have no money for surgeries. She can't take it. I just want to see her smile again, hm? I just want her to know that I don't care about the scars. So... I stick a razor in my mouth and do this...
[
the Joker mimics slicing his mouth open with his tongue]
The Joker: ...to myself. And you know what? She can't stand the sight of me! She leaves. Now I see the funny side. Now I'm always smiling!)

"I don't know Hiei, why don't you ask her?" This time Kurama did look over at Hiei giving him an inquisitive look.

([Rachel knees the Joker in the groin; he merely laughs it off]
The Joker: A little fight in you. I like that.
Batman: [off-screen] Then you're going to love me.
[
attacks him])

"Hey, Faye can I ask you a question?" Kuwabara asked the girl, without looking at her, since he was also engrossed in the movie.

"Yeah?" Faye said engrossed in the movie as well, and her ice cream.

"How can a beautiful girl like you think this Joker is amazing?"

"Looks like I don't have to ask fox."Hiei cut the connection off, so he could hear what Faye's answer would be.

Faye chocked on her ice cream when she heard the world beautiful leave Kuwabara's lips, but once she got done choking she got a thoughtful look on her face, and began to explain, "Well, I mean the guy is a genius even though he is totally mad, he is defiantly got to be one of the best comic book villains ever, and I don't know for some reason in movies like this I always secretly cheer for the bad guy, maybe it's because I know the movie isn't real, and that means nobody gets hurt…I mean everybody knows that in real life the good guy never wins half of the time, and the media is just enforcing the reasoning that good always prevails over evil even though it's not true…" Faye trailed off, and realized she had finished her ice cream, she sat the carton down next to the empty tub of cookie dough she had finished earlier, snuggled back into her blanket, and stared at the movie.

([stumbles out of wrecked truck]
The Joker: [to Batman] Come on, I want you to do it, I want you to do it. Come on, hit me. *Hit me!*)

Hiei was going over what she said in his mind, and he didn't know what to think about her now. He looked back over to her, she was reciting the lines of the movie quietly to herself, and when she would recite the Joker's lines she would always get this sort of mad look on her face.

(Batman: Then why do you want to kill me?
The Joker: [laughs] I don't want to kill you! What would I do without you? Go back to ripping off mob dealers? No, no, NO! No. You... you... complete me.
Batman: You're garbage who kills for money.
The Joker: Don't talk like one of them. You're not! Even if you'd like to be. To them, you're just a freak, like me! They need you right now, but when they don't, they'll cast you out, like a leper! You see, their morals, their code, it's a bad joke. Dropped at the first sign of trouble. They're only as good as the world allows them to be. I'll show you. When the chips are down, these... these civilized people, they'll eat each other. See, I'm not a monster. I'm just ahead of the curve.)

"I wonder if she is mad herself?" Hiei turned his attention back to the movie.

(The Joker: I want... my phone call. I want it. I want it! I want my phone call!
Detective Stephens: That's nice.
The Joker: How many of your friends have I killed?
Detective Stephens: I'm a twenty-year man. I can tell the difference between punks who need a little lesson in manners, and the freaks like you who just enjoy it.
[
pause]
Detective Stephens: And you've killed six of my friends.
[
Joker, pretending amazement, mouths "six?"])

Although Faye looked like she was paying attention to the movie she really wasn't, her mind was way to occupied with other things, it just came naturally to recite the lines because she had seen this movie way to many times than a person should.

"It is kind of crazy for me to like the Joker, I mean sure he may be a genius, but he kills for the heck of it, but I'm not like that. I just go with the flow I am neither good nor evil. I do what's best for me, I am not the Joker, I don't kill for fun."

(The Joker: [to Det. Stephens] Do you want to know why I use a knife? Guns are too quick. You can't savor all the... little emotions. In... you see, in their last moments, people show you who they really are. So in a way, I know your friends better than you ever did. Would you like to know which of them were cowards?)

"What am I? What side am I on? I mean I was an X-Man before this so I must be good, but all that other stuff I've done…What about that? Does it even out? Am I just neutral? Yeah, that's it I'm neutral, in between, I have no side, I am smack dab in the middle!...great…"

Faye felt a little better about herself after she defined what side she was on.

"Even though it's not really a side..."

Faye let out a small sigh that caused Hiei to look at her out of the corner of his eye, but then turned his attention back to the screen.

"This movie always makes me think about that, I should stop watching it." Faye thought to herself, and this time mentally sighed.

Faye then looked over to the guys as they watched the movie. She thought Yusuke, and Kuwabara were pretty chill, and Kurama too, but Hiei she defiantly couldn't figure him out.

"He's a jerk, he basically told me I was already fat earlier, I don't care how pretty his eyes are, he defiantly isn't boyfriend material, not that I have time for a boyfriend anyway...sigh…I need to tell Johnny what Skulker said before we all head off to bed…ugh…this is all so lame…and I wonder what he told them when I was attacked, I'm surprised that haven't asked about it, I guess Johnny did tell them something, oh well no use thinking about it now. I'm just ready to get tomorrow over with, and this whole ordeal to be over."

(The Joker: Oh, you. You just couldn't let me go, could you? This is what happens when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object. You are truly incorruptible, aren't you? Huh? You won't kill me out of some misplaced sense of self-righteousness. And I won't kill you because you're just too much fun. I think you and I are destined to do this forever.
Batman: You'll be in a padded cell forever.
The Joker: Maybe we can share one. You know, they'll be doubling up, the rate this city's inhabitants are losing their minds.
Batman: This city just showed you that it's full of people ready to believe in good.
The Joker: Until their spirit breaks completely. Until they get a good look at the real Harvey Dent and all the heroic things he's done. You didn't think I'd risk losing the battle for Gotham's soul in a fistfight with you? No. You need an ace in the hole. Mine's Harvey.
Batman: What did you do?
The Joker: I took Gotham's white knight and I brought him down to our level. It wasn't hard. You see, madness, as you know, is like gravity. All it takes is a little push!
[
the Joker laughs hysterically as Batman races off and the cops come to take the Joker into custody])

The group watched the rest of the movie in silence, letting their thoughts wonder. Johnny defiantly had to talk to Faye before she went to bed, he knew that Skulker would've had to have said something to her when she was attacked.

"It's not in his nature to be quiet, the loser." Johnny thought with a scowl on his face.

When the movie was over, Faye got up, and put the dvd back in it's case, wrapped the blanket around her more firmly, and walked up stairs to her room yelling "Nighty night!" over her shoulder, Johnny said his goodbyes, and walked outside of the building, and the guys decided to have a quick meeting in Hiei's and Kurama's room before they decided to hit the hay.

When they were all comfortably situated Kuwabara was the first one to open his mouth, "So do you think there is a chance that Faye could be my next girlfriend?"

Yusuke got an annoyed look on his face, and knocked him in the back of the head "I think we have more important stuff to think about then who is gonna be you're girlfriend stupid!"

"Geez I was just wondering!" Kuwabara said rubbing his head.

"I think we better just wait, and see what happens tomorrow before we do anything drastic, from what Johnny told us Faye was suppose to get a meeting place, and time to make the exchange." Kurama said in a serious tone.

"Well since it doesn't look like they aren't going to do anything until tomorrow, we might as well get some sleep." Yusuke said yawning and heading towards his and Kuwabara's room with Kuwabara trailing behind him, and yawning as well.

As soon as they closed the door Hiei and went and opened the window, and jumped into the nearest tree.

"Hiei, don't you think it would look odd to see someone sleeping in a tree?" Kurama said out the window to Hiei.

"Fox, you know I don't sleep."

Kurama let out a sigh, "Alright Hiei, just make sure no one sees you, and I'll leave the window open for you."

"Hn."

Hiei closed his eyes as he heard a motorcycle off in the distance.


Faye had just got done getting ready for bed when Johnny floated into her room.

"So are you going to tell me what Skulker said or not?" Johnny said giving her a pointed look.

Faye let out a sigh.

"Faye, what did he say to you?" Johnny said his voice rising a bit.

Faye who had been looking at her feet raised her head, and looked Johnny in the eye, "Skulker said to meet him at the cave west of her, you know the one."

"Well, what time? You know Clockwork wants to meet me tomorrow, and he said it couldn't wait."

Faye did know, and she knew that if Clockwork wanted to meet you it wasn't good, and she knew that Johnny wouldn't get back until after seven, and Skulker wasn't known for his patience, and Johnny would have a cow if she went there by herself to make the transaction.

"I'm just gonna have to take things into my own hands."

"He said to meet him at eight, now if you excuse me I'm going to bed."

Faye crawled into bed, snuggled into her blankets, and turned her back to Johnny.

"Eight, that's good," Johnny mumbled to himself, "I should be back in time and under no circumstances are you to go near that cave without me." Johnny said his voice firm and serious as he walked to Faye's window.

"Yeah, yeah…Night." Faye said as she closed her eyes.

"See you tomorrow…" Then Johnny phased through her window and floated down to his motorcycle, and took off.


I hope you liked this chapter you guys! I don't really have much to say this time except I would love to hear your input, or anything else you have say :), I wonder what Faye has up her sleeve? Well until next time! Later!
