Part 6

Penguin POV

The soft red velvet booths surrounded the club in half circles looping about a central stage. Green and purple flowers were displayed in tall vases in the center of each table. A few men were glancing beyond the curtain towards the glass box that held a chained up man. His head was covered by a black bag and based upon his attire he had already had a few scuffles. His tux was disheveled and he kept jerking about slamming against the enclosure. A cackle broke their gaze and they turned towards The King and Queen of Gotham descending the stairs. Two body guards tightened their stance as Joker guided his girl to sit in front of them. Her creamy skin scattered with healing marks and past tattoos. A bright toothy smile greeted them as Joker slammed his hands down on the table. "Like whatcha see?" he laughed making the men jump. Snorting out a laugh myself I leaned back enjoying the Joker's reaction. "Mr. Joker, we are both men of business. I enjoy everything that I see," gesturing towards the tied up man. The Joker backed up combing his fingers through his hair. His attention focused on the entertainment. "I thank you Oswald, sorry, Penguin. For allowing such,...simple minded, staff to monitor my cell," emerald eyes danced around dangerously. "As a business partner you know full well I keep up my side of things," Joker stepped forward eyes following his every move. Harley had hopped up unto her knees giggling. A smile crept across my face as I stood up using my umbrella as support. Waddling forward my blue eyes scanned the face as the bag was pulled up over his head. The slightly beat up face of a known banker looks terrified into Joker's laughing face. Joker grabbed his tie twirling him around in circles. I stepped down the stairs and crossed to the man's face chuckling. "Hello, good friend. It's been way too long and I promise to enjoy ever second we have getting to know each other better," my umbrella jabbed him rapidly in the stomach. The man cried out in pain and panic. The man had refused a loan for my mother.

"NOW! Now there," I shouted before smoothing out my tone. Slapping the guy gently with my black gloved palm. Looking over at Joker who was watching sadistically. "Thank you, friend do you mind if we take him off your hands? I don't want to impose on the King and Queen's return to Gotham," the words dripped with honey. Joker tilted his head dangerously a smirk crossing his face. Hands raising up in the air he twisted his wrists as a sign for his men to unhook the body. It limped to the floor as I bowed gracefully to both the Joker and Harley. "Until next time Joker, Ms. Quinn" I rotated on my heel waddling towards the exit. Two body guards dragging the body behind while silver doors swung closed.

Harley POV

Once the loud slam ended I stood up clapping for the music to restart. My Puddin' was taking the silver chains down from the hooks. Tossing them to the side he smiled down at me as I encircled my arms around his waist. "Penguin, huh?" I asked him tilting my head. Emerald looked back confused in my light blue eyes. Rolling them I released him and twirled around the cage picking up my bat. The engravings said 'Good Night' along with other memories. Throwing it up in the air I spun giggling and catching it. Aiming it at Mistah J, I refused to let him act like I was blind. "Mistah J, if I didn't know better you were grouping up for something," my words made his upper lip snarl. "What if I am?" he challenged me. Widening my eyes I laughed hysterically. "What do I look like Puddin'? I am your girl, your right hand. I wanna help you Mistah J," gleefully swinging my bat over my shoulder. Putting my two fingers out like a gun mimicking shooting between his eyes. A laugh escaped his beautiful lips as he drew me into his arms. Dancing me about I enjoyed the music but it blended into rainbows as I fell into his spell. Electric shocks shot up my back as he breathed ruggedly into my ear. "You drive me to the brink. A knife to play with...to use," he throaty words blinding my eye sight. Fluttering my eye lashes as his words made me whimper. His gentle chuckle grazed the skin at my throat and it was broken off. It felt like cold water when his warmth stepped away from me. He passed by me and my eyes followed angered by who had interrupted.

Joker POV

Straightening my shirt I buttoned up the cuff links. Slicking back my green hair I smiled my grill at the new guest. "Welcome back dear...friendsss,"I cackled swinging back my head. The two well dressed men in front of me looked at one another not amused. Instantly frowning I pulled my tattooed hand over my mouth eyes dark. "So you'd rather hide your emotions? How...ugh Harley, what's that word?" my gaze never leaving the men. Harley stepped forward bat used as a cane tilting her blond head. "Disappointin'" she giggled circling the two of them. My eyes watched her moving like a lethal predator. Once in a while it was nice to remind myself I created the most dangerously, beautiful woman on this planet. Once her hand touched the taller of the two I let out a warning snarl to her. Sapphire eyes shot up to meet my warning with a wink, placing her hands up innocently. "Now since you just got here I'll let you set in and maybe then you'll be happier," I suggest turning away gesturing a spot for them,"I will get us a few entertainers, gentlemen."
