Chapter Two

Dance with me?

Jim Gordon sat at his desk a frown on his face and dark circles around his eyes showed his exhaustion to anyone who cared to look. It was days liked this when he never went home and never got a chance to rest that he wondered if his job was worth it. He had been commissioner for around a year and Gotham's future didn't seem to be getting any brighter... if anything it seemed to be darkening.

The Joker and Doll were still out there free to do as they pleased. No one seemed to know of their whereabouts. Gordon knew that they most likely had a place they called home. He knew for a fact that Doll use to reside in an old theater building which was bombed down a few days before she was found and had amnesia a few months ago. But now he had no idea where she was.

Gordon sighed as he stared at his computer on his desk. A video was paused and it showed Doll's laughing face. It was the same video that he saw on the news this morning except his copy was specially delivered to him at the police station addressed to him in Doll's large curvy handwriting.

Once he saw the contents and then saw it showed on the news he knew that Gotham citizens were going to panic. The two criminals were smart they knew how to create city wide panic. Gordon sighed again and wondered if it would be for the best if he took the easy way out and just told the truth about Harvey Dent. The only thing that stopped him was that he knew that The Joker and Doll wouldn't like that. This was all just a sick game to them and they wanted it to be played out for as long as possible. They wouldn't take kindly to him ending their fun when it just begun. Gordon knew without a doubt that people's lives would be threatened either way. He let out a deep sigh as he rearranged his glasses up his face. Things with those two were never simple.

"I don't like it," was the first words The Joker told Doll when he got his first look of her.

She was dressed in a floor length black dress with lace going down the left slide and her left arm was covered in a lace sleeve. On her feet she wore a simple pair of black leather pumps with a stiletto heal. But what The Joker was commenting on was the long black hair the fell in loose curls past her shoulders and bangs that just reached her eyes.

"You don't have to like it. It's not permanent... it's a wig." Doll said rolling her eyes that were covered with brown colored contacts.

"You look normal." He told her his tongue coming out to trace his scars.

"That's the point. No one will know. Tonight I'm just sweet, innocent Ofelia Burkley." She told him as she continued to look in the old, dirty mirror that was hung above the sink in their bathroom. She looked so different that she almost didn't recognize the reflection in the mirror.

Doll stood off to the side of the lavishly decorated room. She was surrounded by the rich and they in her opinion were incredibly dull. She forced her face into a polite happy expression as she stared around the room.

The party was hosted by no other then Gotham's own playboy billionaire Bruce Wayne. Doll had never personally had anything to do with Bruce but she knew his story. She was a few years younger than him but she remembered Allison feeling sorry for him when he lost his parents. He was basically raised by his trusted butler Alfred Pennyworth. She had seen the butler when she first arrived but Bruce was still yet to show.

"Excuse me," a male voice broke through Doll's thoughts. She whipped her head towards the voice to find a young man in an expensive suit with combed back brown hair. Doll stared at him for a moment before remembering what she was wearing.

"Yes?" She questioned politely. Her voice wasn't as high pitched as it was normally. She made her voice more timid... more like what Allison's was like.

"I couldn't understand why such a beautiful young lady like yourself was all alone and so I thought I would ask you to dance." He said with confidence and a smile on his lips.

Doll mentally cringed but her lips pulled up into a smile. "I would love to." She replied.

That was how Doll found herself trapped on the dance floor with this boring rich loser. It took all of her self restraint not to strangle the man as he went on and on about his business. Doll found it all so boring.

"Mind if I cut in?" Someone asked from behind her. She didn't care who it was she was just happy to have an excuse to get away from the man who was holding her currently before she blew her disguise.

She turned her head to find to her surprise Bruce Wayne himself. Her smile was actually genuine. He was the main reason for her being at the party. She didn't realize how easy it would be to get his attention.

"It would be my pleasure to dance with you, Mr. Wayne." Doll told him a smile on her lips as she took his outstretched hand. Her own hands were covered in silk black gloves.

She followed as he pulled her to him; his hands resting gently on her small waist. He was much taller than her and she could feel his muscles under his suit as her hands rested on his shoulders. It was odd to find herself in someone else arms. His touch was much different then The Joker's. Though The Joker rarely actually hurt her his touch never made her feel like she was made of glass. He knew she could take whatever he threw at her Bruce's touch was the opposite. He acted like she was a delicate piece of glass.

"You know my name... but yet I don't know yours." Bruce said bringing Doll out of her own mind.

"Ofelia, Ofelia Burkley." Doll answered.

"Pleasure to meet you Miss Burkley." He told with a charming smile on his face. Doll stared at his for a moment longer before her gaze started to linger randomly around the room. "I don't think I've ever seen you before." He continued.

"I'm new to Gotham. Just moved in about a week ago. Your company actually just employed me. I'll be working in the IT department of Wayne Towers." She told him.

She caught his surprised look. It made her grin internally. Wayne Tower was a large part of Gotham City. It was a building that The Joker and Doll plan to destroy from the inside. It was going to be their big bang to wake up the city of Gotham.

"You'll be working at Wayne Tower?" He questioned. Doll nodded. "I guess we might be seeing one another more often then." He told her with a smile which Doll copied.

"Oh Mr. Wayne I'm sure we will." Doll told him her voice filled with mystery that was more Doll than her Ofelia character she was suppose to be playing. Before he could respond she slipped out of his grip and blended herself into the crowd.

"Master Wayne," a voice that could only belong to his beloved butler Alfred spoke to him.

Bruce turned his head to him. "Yes, Alfred?"

"Are you alright?" The old older man asked as he watched the daze look upon the younger man's face.

"I feel like a know that woman I was dancing with from somewhere... I just don't know where." Bruce told him.

"Found a new love interest have you Master Wayne?" Alfred asked with a teasing undertone.

"I don't know. She just seems familiar somehow." Bruce told him; his eyes still scanning the crowd for the mysterious Ofelia Burkley. "She apparently is now employed at Wayne Tower."

"Well then I guess you will see more of her." Alfred told him.

"Yeah, I guess so." He said his eyes still searching the crowd.
