~Sweet Ophelia, Zella Day - Kicker~
Zara seems to have waken up extra early today. A month had passed living with the Joker and Harley Quinn and now its October. Time for Halloween and spooks. It was usually Zara's favourite holiday because of the cool weather that makes the sun and everything else around it explode in a range of orange burst and clash around the sky and earth. Pumpkins and costumes. She felt extra lucky that it was October, and the fact that she started to warm up to her 'parents' and both of them getting used to her company as well. She still was a little scared inside, but it was a fear she got used to. She woke up and went to the bathroom to get ready for the day. As he got ready she took one look at herself. Bruises, scars and stitches painted her body like an experiment by mad scientist. The scars on her arms seems like tattoos and her bruises started to heal after a while. 'A shower.' She thought. She needed one asap.
As she made her way to her closets and chose out a regular hoodie and skinny jeans, with a 'Jokes on you' tee (how ironic) and regular purple Vans sneakers.
She quickly went downstairs and ate breakfast cereal. Its been a while since she's been out around in town and feeling adventurous, she decided to go out town. She took her phone and a pocket knife with her and headed out the door.
The cooled air and falling leaves hugged the atmosphere like a raincoat. She then treaded along down the streets, just observing the nice environment. Suddenly, she heard gunshots happen in the distance. A purple Lamborghini sped by with the Joker and Harley Quinn shooting bullets in the sky. Harley saw a glimpse of Zara and the car slowed down. "Oh my god! I'm so stupid!" She yelled and ran the opposite direction. She saw police cars drive after the purple Lamborghini and out of nowhere the sound of shooting guns became close. She kept running, and looking back, she saw both Harley and the Joker shooting at GPD cops.
She knew they were coming for her. She kept running towards the opposite direction while they were shooting directly in her direction. She ran across the street and a car was speeding up beside her. But, then someone grabbed her and dragged her into a black car. Whoever it was just saved her from getting hit by that car. Their hands were tough like metal and cold as ice. She looked up and saw that Batman had scooped her up into his bat mobile and sped off towards the GPD station.
There was so much havoc and commotion that Zara's brain couldn't process what was happening. By the minute she was at the police station. "Wait!" She yelled but the Batman was gone. Zara bolted out of the building to see the Joker and Harley. They were shooting cops around them and stabbing the cops who would get to close. It seemed like a fight club out there. Zara fled out of the police's sight and heard a faint call of her name behind her, but didn't bother listening. For some reason, she wanted to help them. The wind gushing through her ears she ran as quickly as she can across the street.
From her right was a light coming to her direction. As she got closer, the light got closer; then out of nowhere, someone scooped her up and carried her to the opposite end of the street. She yelled in frustration as they dropped her to her feet.
"Aahh! Let me go!" She yelled. She looked up at the man and saw it was Rick Flag. Lead Army Colonel. "What were you doing kid?! You could have gotten yourself killed!" He towered over her. "I, I was running to my-" she was cut off by an explosion from the Joker's and Harley's direction the red, orange and yellow clashed around the air and grey smoke filled to blue skies.
Both Flag and Zara flew back from the impact of the explosion. A ringing in Zara's ears began to form as she tries to stand up. Coughing as she goes, Rick Flag dragged her away from the sight and into the GPS.
