Sofia wiped the tears from her face and pulled herself up. She aimlessly wandered inside the bedroom and looked around. The Joker didn't seem to be much of an organized person. There were drawers in the dresser that were open with clothes hanging out of them. She peeked inside of the office to the left and glanced at the paperwork, there were bills and other miscellaneous business files. It was kind of odd to know that Joker still ran legitimate establishments.

She tried looking for something to pick the lock, but to her dismay, there was nothing. Not even a pin. As if he knew she would be looking through his stuff. She groaned and rested against the wall, turning and glancing at the bathroom. She only now realized that she was in desperate need of a shower. She stood up and headed for the door, checking back to make sure the door was still closed, she hurried inside the bathroom and shut the door behind her, locking it. If she was stuck in here might as well take advantage of the warm water. The bathroom was surprisingly the only thing that was organized. Everything neatly placed on the counter and the mirror spotless. She looked at herself, seeing her disheveled hair and dirtied face. She was still in her Arkham clothes, she quickly took them off and threw them into the trash can. Not wanting to see them anymore.

She walked over to the shower, stepping inside and letting the warm water fall onto her skin. She closed her eyes and cleaned herself along with her hair. It felt so good to finally be out, even if she was being held captive at least she had her privacy and warm running water. Her head fell as the steam filled the room.

Sofia sat in her room, staring at the mirror. She wore nothing but black clothing and a black beanie. Today was the day. She gripped her pants and felt the nervousness take over her body. Jack walked into the room, "You okay?" he asked

Sofia glanced up at the mirror to see him in the reflection, she closed her mouth and nodded slowly. He sighed and walked over to her, pulling up a seat next to her. She couldn't keep the worry from her face as she clasped onto the fabric of her pants. Jack looked down and grabbed her hand, "Hey, look at me."

Her eyes met his. He smiled, "It'll all be over today. We're gonna' start a new life remember?"

She chuckled and shook her head, "Yeah."

He smirked and pinched her chin, "I got you something."

Sofia brightened up when he said this, "Really?" she sat up in her seat

Jack nodded and reached into his pocket to pull out a silver locket. Sofia gasped and put her hand over her mouth, she didn't often get things, even with their parents. Which didn't make birthdays or holidays that enjoyable. But whenever Jack could get her something he never disappointed. He handed it over to her and smiled at her reaction.

"Put it on," he ordered

She grinned and placed the chain round her neck, looking down at the engraving on it.

SN

Her fingers brushed over it, "Thank you Jack," she said breathlessly

Jack tapped her knee and raised a brow, "open it."

She looked down and gently opened it, it let out a soft mechanical sound that was a lullaby. She opened her mouth in shock, "It's a music box," she looked down at the cap to see a picture of her and Jack when they were kids. Jack smiled but let out a grunt when Sofia jumped over and wrapped her arms around him. He grabbed her and held her close before pressing her back onto the chair.

"Now stop worrying. I won't let anything happen to you," he assured her

She bit her lip and held his hand, "okay," she whispered

He cupped her chin, "Now wipe that frown off your face."

Sofia rolled her eyes and smiled at him, he always knew how to ruin a moment. The two turned when they heard someone else walk in the room.

Decker stepped inside, "Time to go."

After she was finished Sofia dried herself off with some spare towels she found in the cabinet. She had to admit it was a luxury styled bathroom. It didn't come cheap, but she figured the Joker wasn't the cheap type. Always flashing around his objects any chance he got. It wasn't until she looked at the closet inside of the bathroom did she realize she didn't have any clothes.

She groaned and muttered, "dammit," to herself before walking inside of the closet. He kept all his best clothing in here. His shoes were perfectly placed next to the other, while his ties, belts, cologne and jewelry were kept on one side of the wall. She scanned the room until she spotted a small folded pile of white short sleeved shirts. She grabbed the shirt and put it on, it was big enough to cover most of her body. She turned and looked in the mirror, trying to tie her hair up in a bun. She sighed and stared at herself. Joker knew more than he was telling her. He had to be Decker, it made sense, right? She clenched her fists together at the thought, if it was, he must have been responsible for her brother's disappearance. She shut her eyes and tensed up, a mix of emotions running through her.

Crack

Sofia opened her eyes to see a part of the glass mirror cracked. She furrowed her brows and looked down at her hands then back up to the mirror, she noticed blood coming out of her nose again and she suddenly felt tired.

Did I do that? She thought to herself

Her hand shot up to her head, feeling a familiar pain. She walked out into the room and looked over at the bed. She's never seen a mattress look so inviting before as she sat on top of it. She wasn't thinking straight when she laid down and shut her eyes. Knowing the Joker could come in at any time. But right now, she didn't care, her mind was jumbled, and her body was hurting.

They stood in front of the building. Waiting for their orders. Sofia looked up at the chemical plant. Sofia's hand was shaking a bit. She flinched when she felt Jack touch her it. She glanced up to him and he squeezed, keeping his eyes on the large neon 'Ace Chemicals' sign. Decker walked up behind the two, carrying something with him.

"Put this on," he said, handing over a red hooded mask

Jack turned to look at the item in confusion, "What is this for?"

Decker stared at him, "So no one knows who we are. Leviathan's orders mate not mine."

Jack reluctantly grabbed the hood. Decker smirked and handed another to Sofia. Jack frowned as he watched her put it on her head. The vision was blurred a bit, everything was clearly a red visual. It was also hard to breath inside. She turned to see Jack let out a frustrated exhale and placed the hood on his head while Decker did the same.

"Where is he exactly?" Jack asked, his voice a bit muffled

Decker ordered the rest of the members toward the back of the building before turning to look at Jack, "He'll be here soon. For now he wants us to get inside and sneak past security."

Jack stood there for a few moments, until he felt Sofia press him forward, "Come on Jack. We have to go."

He looked down and her and pulled her close, making sure she was at his side as they made their way to the back entrance. Decker turned to another kid and took the gun from his hands, aiming the weapon at the door handle and blowing a hole where the lock was located. He kicked the door in and watched as the four men entered the building. Jack turned to see Decker waiting for them to go inside, "Ladies first."

He glared at the young man before pulling Sofia inside. Decker checked the surroundings before finally sneaking inside too. Despite the mask on her face, Sofia could smell the strong aroma of chemical waste. She tried to avoid breathing it in as much, but it was too potent. Decker walked up to the group as he held his gun, "You four go make sure security is taken care of," he looked to Jack and Sofia, "You guys come with me. We need to get us some chemicals."

Decker turned and headed for the other end of the building with Jack and Sofia following behind. They walked up into an area where their chemicals were made. Decker snuck up by the door and checked inside, luckily for them, no one was present. He ushered Sofia and Jack inside to stand guard while he searched for the drug.

"Aha," he said, scouting the shelves, finding a briefcase that was licked, "shit." Jack and Sofia heard footsteps coming from outside of the room. Jack pressed Sofia behind the door, she stayed still as the man walked inside. It wasn't security, they were dressed in professional attire. He spotted Decker and raised his gun, "Drop the case," he ordered. Decker stood up and glared at the man, who didn't see Jack come up behind him and grasp his neck with his arms. The man tried grabbing onto Jack before losing enough air, that Sofia came up and kicked him in the stomach, making him topple over. She rushed over and grabbed his gun, pulling off a cord from the wall and tying him up.

Decker took the briefcase with and they headed out into the main area until hearing the sound of gunshots. The three quickly ducked out of view and hid, trying to see what was going on. It was Bertinelli's men scouting the area.

"God dammit," Decker muttered, "they weren't supposed to be here."

Jack turned to him, "Didn't your boss plan this better?" Sofia could hear the annoyance in his voice.

"They weren't. Supposed to be here."

They looked back down to see the rest of the group being killed off as the men ambushed them with their heavy weapons. Sofia began panicking and grabbed Jack's hand, he looked down at her and glanced around to see the stairs that led above the vat of chemicals. He turned and pulled her toward the stairs.

"This way," he ordered

Decker looked and followed close behind. They stopped just before the stairs when Leviathan blocked their way. Jack stopped and stood in front of Sofia, he narrowed his eyes at the man. Decker walked before them both, "Leviathan? What are you doing here? The Bertinellis, they're—

"I know," he replied shortly

He stood in silence, clearly confused at what was going on, "We went over the plans for months. Why are they here?"

Leviathan pulled out a gun and aimed it at the young man, who took a step back. "Hand me the case," he said. Decker clenched his fists and quickly took off the mask, "What's going on?"

Leviathan didn't respond, he merely shot at Decker's feet, making the boy jump back and almost trip down the stairs. "Alright! Alright," he said, placing his hands up and placing the case on the ground, kicking it over to him. "Just calm down yeah?"

Leviathan picked up the case and held tightly onto it, "You've been loyal to me William. I think maybe I'll keep you."

Decker furrowed his brows but didn't move, "Are you working with them?" he asked, wondering why the Bertinellis weren't attacking them. Leviathan turned to Sofia and Jack, lifting the gun and aiming it for Jack and Sofia. Sofia gripped onto her brother's jacket. Jack lowered his head and guarded her.

"Unfortunately there's no open slots for more," Leviathan asked

Jack frowned underneath his mask. Decker stepped forward, "Hey! Now hold on, why can't they come with us?"

Leviathan chuckled, making Sofia tense up, "You really think you can up and leave?" He turned to Decker, "These two wanted to leave as soon as they were through."

Decker looked at the two, "Is that true?" he asked

Jack only stared at him. Leviathan laughed louder, "You don't just say your done and think you can walk out. It's not that simple Jack."

There was a long pause of silent tension building between them. Leviathan quirked his masked face and tossed his gun to the young man. Jack swiftly caught it, staring at the metallic weapon and looking up to the man in confusion.

"Kill them and I'll let you in on our deal," Leviathan commented

Decker opened his mouth, "What? Leviathan you can't just—

"Shut up," he ordered.

Decker stood quiet as his attention was brought back to Jack. Sofia creased her forehead in confusion and looked up at him. Did he really expect her own brother to shoot her? Clearly he didn't know him at all.

"I know about you two Jack, what she's done. What you've both done. Would just be better to get rid of her and move on to the bigger and better."

Decker stared wide eyed at Jack, anxiously glancing at the gun in his hand. Jack thought about the offer for a few moments before pulling the gun up and aiming it at Decker. Sofia squeezed his arm, "Jack," she warned.

The two young men stared at one another before Jack finally turned and pulled the trigger, shooting Leviathan in the chest. The man fell back onto the ground with a loud thud.

"What the hell?!" Decker shouted

Sofia panted as she looked at the motionless body lying on the ground. Jack looked back up to Decker and frowned, "We're done here," he stated, pulling Sofia along with him.

Decker stared at Leviathan and closed his mouth, "You killed my only ticket out of prison."

Jack turned to him, "He wanted you dead William."

Decker shook his head, "He was testing you! Now I'm going to be sent to prison! I'll be stuck in this god damn system for the rest of my life! Not including that we're still stuck inside with people who are going to kill us!"

Jack didn't understand why he was freaking out over a man who wanted him dead. But he ignored him and turned away with Sofia. "Then best you get out now."

Decker's chest rose with every heavy breath. He gritted his teeth and grabbed the gun on the ground he had dropped earlier, lifting it to shoot Jack. Jack quickly grabbed Sofia and pushed her down the stairs. Sofia dropped down to the ground and hissed grabbing her knee in pain. She glanced up to see the exit door just up ahead. She turned her head and saw Jack pinned down by Decker.

"Jack!" she cried, getting up to run after him. He noticed her and shouted, "Sofie no! Get out of here now!"

She stopped at stared at him before punching Decker to the ground, "NOW!"

She flinched at his tone and reluctantly stepped back, turning and rushing out of the doors. Setting off the alarm. She ran until she couldn't catch her breath, tripping and falling to the ground, the pain in her leg catching up to her. She took off the hood and threw it to the ground in anger. She could hear the sounds of bullets and sirens in the distance. She waited for Jack, but he never came out. She hopped up and down anxiously waiting, until deciding to run back over to the entrance. That was when an explosion of smoke and fire threw her back.

Sofia fell back and hit her head on the ground, the explosions kept coming and she pulled herself up. Scanning the area, but still… no Jack.

"JACK!" she cried, dropping back down to the ground and falling to her knees.

She could see the police lights coming up behind her, she dropped her head as tears fell. She shot her hands to her face and screamed. Officers stepped out of their cars and walked up cautiously behind her. They pulled her up and walked her to the back of the car, she didn't fight. She simply turned back to see the chemical plant now up in flames.

Sofia opened her eyes, she realized she was crying in her sleep and wiped the bothersome tears away. She huddled herself on the bed until jumping when she noticed the Joker sitting and watching her from a seat a few feet away.

Shit.
