Stephens grabbed Kat's arm. He tried pulling her over, but she yanked her arm away. "Kat, don't do anything stupid." He stared at her for a long time. She stared back at him. Finally Kat looked away to the ground. Gordon still laid there motionless. "He's gone." Kat felt tears coming back when she said those words.
Stephens looked back down at Gordon, too. "It's not your fault." He said. "It's not even the Joker's. Gordon jumped in front of the bullet." He looked at Kat and waited for her to say something. Anything at all. She was silent for the longest time.
"He's going to pay." Kat whispered. She walked away again. This time she didn't stop. Not for anything. An old white van caught her eye when she passed an empty alley way. It was parked on the other side of the alley. Men were quickly running into the van. Each one of them dressed in uniforms.
Kat started walking towards them, and then she started running. "Hey!" She yelled to them. Her yelling only caused them to move into the van faster. One of them however stopped in place. Kat caught up to them and pulled the man who stopped. She pushed him around to face her.
The face that looked back at her was in the shape of a smile. The Joker smiled widely at her. "What's the matter, Kat? You don't look so good." He overpowered her by getting way to close to her. Kat pushed him away with all her strength. He started laughing and then walked back to her. "Wow, Kat. I didn't realize you were so upset about something."
"Stay away from me." Kat warned, as he got closer and closer. She put her arms up in defense. She could feel the tears forming again behind her eyes as she looked up at the Joker.
"I'm not gonna hurt ya Kat. Not yet, anyway." He whispered.
Kat glared at him. She felt a warm tear slid down her cheek. "You already did hurt me!" She screamed at the top of her lungs. Joker jumped back a bit when she yelled. His eyes grew a bit soft.
"How?!" He raised his voice at her.
She couldn't believe him. She got up on her tip toes and leaned in close to him. "Don't act like you don't know. YOU KILLED GORDON!" She yelled in his face. Kat felt the tears stinging her eyes, but she refused to let them all out. Not in front of him.
"He killed himself! He jumped in front of the bullet! I did nothing wrong!" He yelled back.
Kat buried her face in her hands and let the tears pour out. She felt herself being pulled towards him. His arms wrapped around her shoulders as she was pressed up against his hard body. He tried shushing her calmly. Kat felt horrible. For everything. All she ever did was fight with Gordon. All the time. And she never even got the chance to say she was sorry. Not once. She may have said it once, but she didn't mean it. "I never even said goodbye. The last thing between was just... another argument."
She closed her eyes and continued to let out all her feelings. "And you and me. If something happens to you next, I don't even know... Part of me wants to just kill you and the other tells me that... I still love you. I don't know what to fell anymore. I thought I let go of everything we had, but I still find myself holding on."
The Joker pulled away from her instantly. He looked down at her and sighed. His eyes growing wider and wider by the second. "You're still holding on?" He asked. "To everything?"
Kat nodded. "Well... I thought I was. But now I'm not so sure." She wiped away a few tears and crossed her arms over her chest. She smacked him hard on the arm. "I hate you for making me want to kill you!" She replied.
He smiled. "Well... unfortunately... this doesn't change anything. I can't have you getting in my way anymore." He pushed her aside. "As soon as I get ahold of precious Harvey, you and I can finally meet our match." He laughed in her face.
Kat glared. "You are so selfish! Here I am pouring my soul out to you! My best friend in the entire world just died! And all you can say is... I'm still gonna kill you!" She yelled.
"I thought you and what's her face. Uh uh, Rachel. Were best friends."
She looked up at him confused. "We are. But that's not the point."
Joker pulled out a knife and switched the blade up and down as he circled the area around her. "Kat, do you honestly believe that... things can ever be the same between us? Hmm? Do you truly believe that in your heart? You're a cop. I'm a criminal. We can never be the same. ever."
Kat winced at his words. For once they were actually breaking her heart.
