A young mother and her Daughter were playing at a small park enjoying the beautiful day. The mother went to hug her daughter.
"I love you mom. We're always going to be together." The little girl said hugging her mother.
All of the sudden The blue sky tuned into a dark grey, She turned to look at her daughter who vanished.
"Esmeralda...Esmeralda..." She called out only to have darkness surround her.
Liliana woke up from her nightmare and closed her eye and took a deep breath in then exhaled. She didn't want to think about it.
"I know your Awake Get up ,Someone's coming" A voice said from across the room. She groaned at sat up.The door opened and a man came into the room and stood by the door.
"The boss wants to see you, and bring your friend too" He said, leaving.
"You would think that maybe I was Kidnapped " A voice said then a body appeared.
"Why would anyone try to keep you for that long " Liliana said teasingly as they got up and left.
They walked down to a set of doorswhere a man was standing infront of and let them inside.
"You wanted to see us" Claudia said sitting down on a chair.
"Hello Sister it's nice to be able to actually see you' He said as she rolled her eyes.
"What can we do for you, brother"
''I need Liliana here to deliver something for me" he said as she looked up at him with an irritated look.
"Brother...Don't" She said warning him, as he got up and walked towards her.
"You can do that for me'' he said, Placing his hand on her shoulder, She shook him off quickly.
"Don't touch me" she said,irritably walking off.
"She won't always be that gentle, She is your greatest weapon after all' she said walking away.
"Why are we here" Claudia said as Lilianasat down.
"We delivered what we needed to and I need to take the edge off plus they have a karaoke machine".
"Your guilty pleasure but why you're singing at the club tonight"
"That's true but here I'm not being watched like a hawk by everyone ."
"Have you talked to Danny" Claudia whispered
"Yeah he called me a week ago. He told me how much older and Independent she's becoming". She said smiling
"Have you,C" She asked.
"Yeah he called me and he was planning on visiting. Alone of course he says Isabelle is going to be with yaya' She said looking down.
"I know I'm not the only one who lost something but are you sure he should be coming back,your brother has eyes everywhere" She said pointing across the bar to one of Lucas's men.
They stayed for a while then ended up leaving and made it in time for her to get ready for tonight .Liliana was finishing her makeup when Lucas walked in and looked at her
"Yes, Lucas'' She said, Turning around facing him.
"I just wanted to check up on you and see how you were doing tonight " He said as she glared at him.
"What do you really want" She said, crossing her arms
"I came to tell you that you need to come to my Bedroom tonight"He said, placing a hand on her arm.
"I won't" she said venomsly at him, shaking his hand off.
"You will or You will pay the price" He said as hegrabbed her face forecfully with his hands then Walked off.
"What did he want' Claudia asked.
"Nothing" she said getting up.
"OK lets go" they walked out and headed to the club.
They were introduced like always, Liliana in the center of the stage and C as the back up vocals.She was looking around and her brown eyes met with Another pair of Brown eyes They broke eye contact and she was going to sing again when gunshots were heard making everyone run off and she saw a man walking up towards the stage. She grabbed Cwho was invisible at this point.
''Don't let go OK" she whispered as C gripped on Liliana's hand. Liliana ran off the nearest exit she could find, The man that was after her grabbed her arm and she twisted his arm and threw him on the groundand kept on running.
''Don't show yourself yet someone could be following" she whispered as she got closer to the streets of Gotham when a Black van pulled up. a few men stepped out, she tried to run off but they all grabbed her throwing her inside the van.She sat in the van Silently As All The men Were Staring at her, Well all Except The Driver. The Van Stopped and Everyone Got Out and a few Men grabbed her and walked her inside and then brought her to an empty room.
"Well are y'all just going too keep staring at me all night or are you going to tell me why I'm here" She hissed, from her chair.
"You got A Smart ass Mouth,Your with us now-" The man she hit earlier said.
"You Think She's here because She was forced ...No she's here because she wants to be here" A Deep Voice said Making Everyone silent and made her smirk.
''Your absolutely right'' she said not moving an inch from where she was as he walked closer to her.All of the men let him through not wanting to upset him.
She Stared At the Man In front Of Her And Smirked At Him.He had a point She was here because she wanted to be here.
"Go Get The Boss" He said not taking his eyesoff her but no one moved.
"NOW!" he said loudly but slowly As Everyone Ran Out.
"I knew A Face Like Yours Couldn't Be Good News" She said Staring at Him as He licked His Lips At Her.
"I Know all about you and your little mind games" He said as she smirked at him.
C Appeared behind Him And Liliana Shook Her Head And C Disappeared When The door Busted Open and walked in "The Boss".
"I see you Caught her Dean...Good Job." A Voice Said Making Her Body Freeze She's Heard that Voice Before On The News.It Couldn't Be...
"It's a Pleasure to finally meet you Liliana.." He said as she gulped slowly but She refused to let him intimate her.
"It's The Joker Right?" She said nonchalantly.
"Everybody Out" he hissed.
Dean looked at her and they met eyes again but He looked away and walked out. Everyone else stayed behind.
"Did I Stutter." he said then brought out a gun, aimed it and shot it at the nearest henchman Which made all the other ones run out.
"Go Now" she whispered but she felt someone grip her hand.
"I'll be fine, go" She whispered as she felt C's presence was gone.
"Aren't you going to ask why you're here" he asked.
"I Would but now that Iknow it was you who took me it could be for any reason " She Responded calmly, Rose up from the chair and walked up to the window and looked outside of it.
"Now that I think about it I believe it has to do with Who I Am. I was Lucas's Weapon a very Powerful one but Now That I was "Kidnapped" I'm not longer His Weapon" She said while Admiring The Dark Sky.
"So Tell Me Joker What's Stopping me From Leaving"She said Turning to face the Man Everyone in Gotham Feared.
"The Same thing that was stopping you from leaving him..This" He said showing her a silver blade inside a black box .She sucked in her Breath.It couldn't be could It.
"You Truly Believe Lucas Stopped looking for your daughter.'' He said as her eyes darkened by the mention of her daughter.
"I don't want anything to do with Your daughter..He kept this to keep you tamed and obedient.I Don't want to keep you Under control, I wanna see what You're capable of"
"What do you want then" She said crossing her arms.
"I want you to work for me and to be a secret weapon of mine You do this for me I'll give this to you and You can finally get rid of your little Lucas problem." He said as she bit her lip,Thinking.
"Your not going to let me off that easily, You know the moment I get that blade I'm out of here..out of this life"
"I knew you were a smart one, Well discuss this more Tomorrow."
"How do I know that's really my blade." she asked as he grabbed it.
"Oh I'll Prove it to You,Doll" he said licking his lips.
"Come.. Kneel for Daddy J" He said as her eyes grew wide She knew she had to even though she didn't want to.Her mind was telling her no but her body complied and She knelled infront of him.
"OK You proved it. I'll work for you Now put it away" she hissed, Glaring up at him.
"This is fun." he said as he placed a hand on her head.
"Don't worry doll, I'm not Lucas I don't force you unless you want to and You will." he said truthfully and she got Embarrassed and looked away.
''Get Up" he commanded as she rose up, he put the blade away and she felt normal again.
"Thank you, Joker." she said turning away but he lifted her chin with his gloved hand making her look stright at him.
He Looked at her With Those Dark Intense Eyes..Something in Her Wanted to Know Those Dark Eyes.
"It's going to be fun working with you, Doll" he said as she felt a shiver run down her spine from his words. It wasn't from fright or terror but fromExcitement.This was Going to Different.
