Hello everyone. I wish to thank everyone who reviewed the last chapter. You guys are amazing. I'm glad you're enjoying the story so far. I do apologize for the long waits in between. I'm somewhat struggling with this story more than with Stitched Together but no worries I do plain to see it through to the end it just might take awhile.

On to other things.. how many of you have been watching Gotham? I have so far watched the first ten episodes and have the other ones ready on my tv recorder to watch when I have time. I'm in love. I love Oswald and Edward! If you haven't watched it I suggest u should. It's very interesting show for any Batman fan!

Also I recently messaged to add another category that I plan to write fanfiction about... The book series is called Grey Griffins. There is two series The Original series of three books and then The Chronicle Series which has three books. I've recently read them all and I'm addicted. The last 3 have a Steampunk kind of feel to them which I adore. Anyway my brain keeps forming ideas for a story and if anyone has read them let me know.. I'm curious if anyone will read it if I wrote a fanfic... and if you haven't read those books then you should totally look into because there amazing.

Anyway... enough rambling and on to chapter 3... don't forget to review! -Adelene :)

Chapter Three

Chaos Begins

It was late as The Joker sat on one of the many tall buildings of Gotham City. His purple covered legs dangled over the edge; swaying back and forth as he looked out at the dark city in front of him. Gotham was the perfect place for him right from the beginning. Crime was like a spreading disease here. Everyone was corrupted in some way whether they admitted to it or not.

The Joker whipped his head around when he heard rustling from behind him. A smile stretched across his face when he saw the blonde hair of Doll as she climbed up the fire escape ladder. She was back to her normal glory; no longer playing dress up. Her face was painted white with her scars outlined in black. Her legs were covered in maroon tights and he could see just an inch of her black skirt underneath her black trench coat she wore. Her own lips were stretched up into a smile and her eyes sparkled with chaotic excitement.

"So... how did it go?" He asked. His voice and body language gave the illusion of uncaring but he was curious. He didn't particularly like when Doll played dress up on her own. He knew that she was capable of taking care of herself but he preferred to keep his chaotic queen close.

Her black boots clicked on the roof as she walked over to him. She didn't say anything until she was seated beside him. Her short legs dangled over the edge as she looked up into the starless night.

"It was interesting. A lot easier than I actually suspected. With our... message out I thought the citizens would be a little more careful." She told him. "But I guess this is Gotham. People here aren't exactly known for being smart."

"Get to meet Bruce Wayne?" He asked taking a quick glance over to her.

"I danced with him." She told him with a smile. The Joker's scars might have made him look like he was still smiling but his lips weren't. His eyes grew cold and dark as he started out into the night. His fingers dug into the roof edge. Doll couldn't hide her widening smile as she watched him. "It was all for show. I need him to trust me... well trust sweet, little Ofelia Burkley."

She stared at him as he kept silent. One blonde eyebrow raised as he keep silent.

"No need to be jealous." Doll told him; her laughter just barely held as she spoke.

He turned to her as quick as lighting. "I'm not jealous, doll face. Just when ever you tend to flirt and play dress up it doesn't always have a welcoming end for you." He told her as one of his hands grabbed her wrist. He could feel the scars on her arms from her time spent captured by Carrillo and his men. Her eyes burned into his skull and he would have been dead where he sat if Doll could kill with just a look. She went to pull her arm out of his grip but he tightened his hold.

Doll's eyes were narrowed and her stare could have frozen hell but The Joker was unfazed. He could handle an angry Doll... or at least he hoped he could. Her body was tense and stiff as he kept his grip on her. She didn't try to move away again and The Joker was waiting for her next move.

"You have exactly sixty seconds to let me go or I'm going to kick you over the edge of this building. It's a long drop and there is no Batman here to stop your fall." She threatened and he knew that she was serious.

Doll was a small woman. She was thin and short but she was clever and resourceful. She used her size to her advantage. She moved fast and she was a pretty good fighter. The Joker hated to admit and he never would out loud but she was a better fighter than he. Doll had a deadly accuracy with a blade and no hesitation.

He gazed into her eyes as his tongue ran across his facial scars. He knew her threat was a serious one. She never made empty ones.

"I could just take you with me." He told her his grip tightening just a little bit more. She smiled at him but it was anything but friendly.

"Go ahead. I'll have your face to break my fall." Doll told. "So what is it going to be because I'm starting to get bored."

He stared for just a few more seconds before his grip on her arm started loosing before he removed it completely. With her arm free of his grip she turned back to look out at Gotham.

"Smart move," she commented. The Joker grunted. "So any particular reason you wanted me to meet you here?"

"Well our message has been heard and... I'm a man of word so Gordon and Batman haven't owned up to anything so... time for some fireworks." He said his face breaking out into a smile.

Doll had a grin on her face as she looked over the surrounding buildings. She could see a few potential targets. From this angle she could see Gotham's Public Library, Gotham City Elementary School, and a popular bar and night club called The Craze. Out of those three Doll leaned more towards the club... because it was the only place still open this late. Their warning was for people to die and that was their best bet to show that they were serious on their threat.

"Want to make the call?" The Joker offered as he watched her gaze at the club. From his pant pocket he pulled out a simple prepaid cell phone. He held it out to her as she took it. "The club goers have five minutes starting as soon as you start the call." He told her. She nodded. The clubs number already ready in the phone just waiting to be called.

Doll pushed the send button before holding the phone up to her ear. Her right leg bounced in excitement as she waited for someone to answer.

"Thank you for callin' The Craze; this is Rob can I help you?" A young sounding man answered. She could hear the loud music in the back ground as he spoke.

"Yes I have a message that you need to repeat to everyone and you have about four and half minutes to do it in." Doll told. Before Rob could say anything Doll continued. "I'm calling to tell you there is a bomb set to explode in the next ohhh four minutes. If you value your life and everyone else inside the building I suggest you run... and quickly!" Doll told him her laughter barley contained. She could feel The Joker shaking with laughter beside her.

"Wait are you talking about? Is this some kind of prank?" Rob asked anger and disbelief in his voice.

Doll sighed in aggravation on the idiot.

"Do you watch the news?" She asked. Without waiting for an answer she continued. "Because if you did then you would know that Gotham citizens aren't safe until Commissioner Gordon comes clean. So I suggest you take my warning very seriously. You have three minutes. Use them wisely." She warned before hanging up.

Pulling the phone from her ear she laughed as she dialed one more number. A number that she had always wished to call but never had. The Joker watched on in curiosity. He already had a large hunch of who she was calling. The man who played a part in their game.

"Hello." A woman's voice answered.

"I need to speak to Jim Gordon." Doll told her in the nicest voice she could muster as she swallowed her laughter. She could hear Barbara, Gordon's wife, pull the phone away from her as she called for him to get the phone. Doll didn't have to wait long. She did hear Gordon ask who it was and Barbara whispering that she didn't know.

"This is Jim Gordon, can I help you?" He asked.

"Hello Gordon, just calling to remind you of the consequences of your neglect to tell the lovely people of Gotham the truth they deserve." Doll told him.

"Doll?" He questioned.

"Of course and in the next minute and a half a club is going to be blown sky high. We called ahead and gave them a warning but from what I can see they don't seem to concerned about it. The guy on the phone thought it was a prank." She told him. "Their night is about to get much more exciting."

She giggled as she kept her eyes on the building in question.

"I'm sure I'll be seeing you soon Gordon. Don't forget that this is only the beginning." She said before hanging up on him before he could say anything.

"Nice touch with calling Gordon." The Joker complemented. Doll hummed in appreciation.

"Do you need this phone for anything else?" Doll asked. When The Joker shook his head no he watched in amusement as she threw it out into the dark street below them as hard as she could.

"I think if there was anyone down there they would die of fright from the surprise or from the impact of that hitting them." The Joker told her as they both laughed.

Their laughter however was drowned out by the sound of the bomb going off at The Craze. The sky lite up from the explosion. The duo watched the city come to life at the sound. Windows opened all around as people looked to see what was happening. The sound of sirens were soon heard as they raced to the scene it mixed in with the two agents of chaos' laughter.


Not a real long chapter but I think its kind of a cute chapter with just The Joker and Doll.. and the beginning of their destruction of Gotham. I haven't actually started on the next chapter yet but I'm hoping to have some more Bruce and Ofelia (Doll) in it... as well as Batman. Anyway hope everyone enjoyed and I can't wait to hear from you so please review! -Adelene
