It's a twin thing.
Black Mask was dead.
Roman Sionis was gone.
Sorrow sat in at the edge of the rec room, a deep frown on her face. She'd wiped her eyes of tears long ago when she found him dead on the floor of the streets.
Who'd killed him, she didn't know, she wanted to know though.
Black Mask was her father and no one should ever kill her father.
She could only imagine her sister now… Jester would be sitting there pretty with a smile on her face.
Speak of the devil and she shall appear.
Sorrow glared at her sister as she came walking into the rec room smiling a grin that split her face in half.
"Go away," Sorrow growled as she sat facing the window, seeing her sister's reflection behind her.
Jester smirked. "Hello to you too."
"I have no reason to speak to you," Sorrow hissed as she turned to glare at her sister. "Besides. I already know how you feel about it."
"Bout what?"
"About what?" Sorrow hissed as she stood up and stormed up to her, getting into her sister's face. She didn't care if she ended up in the solitary, it would be worth it. "Our father is dead! I know you do not care, but he was our father and…" she trailed off taking a deep breath to calm herself and stop the tears from falling. "And now he's dead," her voice cracked as she spoke the last bit. It was hard to believe that it had actually happened.
With that said, Sorrow pushed past her sister and sat at the table instead, where Jester soon re-joined her.
"Look sis… I don't think you realise that even I do have feelings."
"You?" Sorrow rolled her eyes. "Do not make me laugh, sister dearest, I know you all too well."
"Oh, don't get me wrong," Jester waved her arms dismissively. "I'm as happy as a cucumber that Black Mask is dead and gone but," she held her finger up to make her sister silent. "That doesn't mean I am happy about it. Sionis was still my father as well, sis."
Sorrow was silent for a moment before she raised a curious eyebrow tilting her head to the side slightly. "You care?"
"I care about the fact that someone popped my father's clogs and it ain't me, but what I'm more concerned about is the fact that someone is out there blowing bad guys or throwing them off buildings, ya know?"
"You expect me to believe you?"
"I expect you… to trust me," Jester smiled. "No one messes with my family other then my family. No body else."
Sorrow sat up and smirked slightly too. "Family is still family?"
"Exactly. Family is the most important thing in this life, even you must admit that?"
Sorrow fell silent before she stood up and glared down at her. "You should know I do not feel that way. How many times have I tried to kill you?"
"Sash," Jester giggled. "I know you. If ya wanted me dead, I would be."
"Hmmm.. maybe so…" her twin nodded and then she tapped her chin in thought. "What do you suppose then?"
"I suppose an alliance would be a good thing. What do you think?"
"An alliance would be a good idea, considering the fact that there is a small amount of our father's gang left, we could bring it back together."
Jester grinned wider. "Hmm, then we do what only twins can do?"
"A bond that will shake the world correct?"
"Maybe not the world, but Gotham deffo."
Sorrow chuckled lightly before she looked up at her sister. "You aim too low, sister dearest. If we are going to do this, then… we just have on thing standing in our way, just one little problem."
"Which is?"
"We're stuck in Arkham!"
Jester burst out laughing, she almost fell off her chair because she was laughing that much.
"Oh don't make me laugh, sis! I know you," Jester giggled. "Besides, it's not like I'm stuck in here. I only stay to humour the Doctors, that's all."
Sorrow bit her lip. It was probably the stupidest idea in history to team up with Jester, they both had dominant personalities, where usually, in twins especially, there was a weaker twin and a more dominant one.
But… in history there had been twins who had turned to a life of crime and they had commanded cities and streets with their reputation and there was the added bonus of always having someone to watch your back for you.
"Fine," Sorrow huffed. "But only so we can keep our father's business together and still running, not to mention track down his killer and get revenge."
"Don't worry sis, you'll warm up to me," Jester smiled before she looked at the floor and shuffled slightly. "But do you think… that is…"
"I was planing on visiting our father yes," Sorrow nodded before she held her hands to her face and quietly cried. "But," she took a deep intake of breath and wiped her tears. "I will bring him the man who killed him's head on a platter."
"We could always play with him for a bit," Jester suggested. "How did dad used to do it?"
"Oh.. with knives and cables and jump leads…" Sorrow smirked. "Things like that… best bring your kid to work day ever."
The twins shared a laugh before Jester flipped a thumb to point behind her. "Want me ta grab ya mask?" she waved her other hand in front of her face smirking. "Cause I'm already wearing the one you got me."
"I believe that would be an excellent idea."
"Great, now can we get going, we've got a reputation to start!"
With that her sister bolted out the room and Sorrow quickly followed suit, the guards didn't know who to chase after and eventually both twins lost them.
Sorrow and Jester agreed to meet by the docks were they could steal a boat and sail back to Gotham, since Sorrow knew how to sail she went there first and got it ready while she waited for her twin.
Sure, she hated her and she hated everything about her, but she loved her father and her father would of wanted them to get back together again.
He always did when he discovered exactly who Jester and herself was, he always tried to get them back together, believing that being flesh and blood to him, that both twins should stay with him.
Of course her sister never did and it hurt her father to no end. Didn't matter that he was a mob boss he was still their father and they were still his mismatched twins who really didn't belong together but, he didn't care he only wanted them with him.
Sorrow never truly loved anyone in her life, ever.
But she loved her dad.
THE END.
Note: So then, someone requested Sorrow and how she was dealing with the loss of her father, well ya see I have to always do the twins together, they are twins after all, plus they play off each other really well.
I hope this is what you wanted and by the looks of thing the Turner Twins are getting ready to cause trouble together, amazing what a recent death in the family can do to a hatred between siblings.
Anyway, our next one is the return of Poison Ivy! From house plant to jungle goddess! Just another day at Arkham Asylum.
Please continue with requests guys! I am now back on track to being on top of them, so anyone! You name them rogues and scenarios and I'll write you the story! :D
