Yes, yes, I know. I'm a liar with my pants on fire. But I was bored in class and I sit in the back so when the opportunity presented itself I couldn't just ignore it.
Gaggy dropped Joker and his daughter on the floor of some building, Gaggy didn't ask for details, he just asked for an address.
"I knew you'd see the wrong of your ways once that Harley bitch wasn't of any use to you. Like I always say, bros before hoes." Bethany immediately pushed herself away from the two men.
Joker stood and held out his hand out for Gaggy to shake. He took it greedily and shook it a few times before jumping up and down.
"Boss, I knew you'd see that-" Joker took a knife and drove it into his neck.
"Gaggy, what person would ever trade Harley for you, look at you? I thought you were smarter than that." Joker looked over to Bethany, who was looking away from the gruesome scene. "See, Bethany, this is what happens when you don't get a good education." Joker let Gaggy's lifeless body fall to the ground. "Bethany," Joker started to kneel down towards her. Bethany kicked her foot up, connecting it with his jaw.
Bethany started to crawl away, but Joker recovered quickly and grabbed her foot, dragging her across the floor, through Gaggy's blood.
"Let me go!" Bethany yelled.
"No, it's time you start treating me with respect." Joker picked her up, caring her like a sack of potatoes while he walked up three flights of stairs.
"Where are you taking me?"
"I'm doing what should have been done a long time ago." Bethany twisted her body to see that they were on a platform, beneath them large bath like tubs filled with a steaming liquid.
"Acid. You're going to drop me in acid?" Joker put Bethany down, making sure to hold onto her arm.
"Of course not. You're going to jump into the acid." Joker put himself between Bethany and the staircase.
"No. I won't. Why do you have it in your twisted mind that I would do anything you ask?" Joker smiled and opened his arms out like a presentation.
"Because you want to." Before she could speak against it, Joker put a finger to her lips. He mimicked her voice. "'No I don't.'" He went back to his regular voice, his smile wider than ever. "Yes, you do. And I'll tell you why. Because deep down, however deep it may be, you love us. You love Harley and me." Joker took a moment to laugh. "Even though you yell at us and convince yourself not to, you love us. And since your poor parents are gone, you feel lost. You thought you were ready to be an adult, to be all alone, but the truth is you're not." Joker walked Bethany back towards the edge of the platform. "If you jump, you can be our daughter, and we'll be together, forever."
Bethany shook her head, "no, I don't want that."
Joker sighed, he nodded. "Alright, I get it."
Bethany sighed. Perhaps he would let her leave.
"I guess I'll have to give you a little nudge." Joker pushed Bethany off the platform. Her scream lasted for less than second, followed by a stinging splash. "One Mississippi, two Mississippi, three Mississippi." Joker jumped after her, diving into the tub of acid.
