Hello again! Sorry it has been a while, I was in Hurricane Irma's path. We have a LOT of damage in our neighborhood. Many houses need new roofs, some were flooded, and others just plain crushed. We were out of power over a week. A very hot, very loud (from many generators), and very long week. I still own nothing. I only own the ideas that are my own.
Also, YES the title is lifted from Batman the Animated Series. It seemed appropriate.
The Joker's Favor
The Joker snarled as his men stood in his office telling him that his Harley was nowhere to be found.
"And The Wall?" he asked putting a pistol to the head of the goon responsible for finding out if Amanda "The Wall" Waller had taken Harley, again. Unfortunately for him, Waller didn't know where Quinn was.
"S...She doesn't know, boss..." he responded. He had practically whimpered. The Joker is a scary man.
The Joker pulled the trigger, burying a bullet between the man's eyes. There was a thud as the goon's body hit the floor.
He spread his arms and turned to the others, "Well? ..."
He had paused for affect and no one spoke.
"What did I tell you lot about failing me?" he growled out lowering his arms.
"You'd mail us bit by bit to each other and our moms?" a brave soul ventured.
"BINGO!" The Joker yelled then raised the hand holding the gun and aimed at his men. "Who wants to be next?" he leered at them.
"We'll find her boss!" They shouted and scrambled from the room.
The Joker laughed manically as Johnny Frost, his right hand man and the only one to stay put, approached him.
"Boss?" he asked cautiously, The Joker is unpredictable.
The Joker stopped mid-laugh and turned his gaze to Frost, his eyes glinting dangerously.
"I might have a lead boss."
"I knew I liked ya Johnny boy!" he mocked and then put his arm around Frost's shoulders. "Talk."
"I heard the Bat got to her. So I did some digging. My contact at the GCPD just confirmed the story." He held his phone out for The Joker to see the text he had gotten a few moments before. "He confirmed that she arrived at the GCPD headquarters the day you threw her out. She offered some sort of deal and then disappeared. She's not logged as a prisoner at all. Just gone."
"See Frosty! This is why I keep you," he patted Frost's back. "Update the men so they can focus their search."
The Joker moved away from Frost, "Oh! And find me my hacksaw! I have some bits to mail!"
He cackled as Frost nodded and made for the door, he stopped at the door and turned around, "Anything else Boss?"
The Joker raised his gun and shot above the door. Taking that as his cue to leave Frost left with all due haste. After all The Joker doesn't like to wait. Which is probably why he only binge watches shows. Though that wouldn't happen until his Queen was returned. He needed his Harley, as absurd as it was he missed her chatter. He stalked past the T.V. in his office briefly wondering about the News, did they know Harley was missing?
And that's it for now! Hope you enjoyed. I am sorry it is short, I was writing during the hurricane and this is all I came up with. Please, review! Let me know what I can improve upon or if something needs fixing.
Until the next time.
