Opposites attract.

Doctor Young: This is my last interview with Edward, I have gone as far as I can. I can no longer tolerate is mood swings and tantrums. He'll be transferred to Doctor Whistlers care as of next week.

Riddler: Good morning Doctor, how are you today?

Doctor Young: I'm fine thank you, Edward. You're in a good mood.

Riddler: I'm always in rare spirits when I'm about to be released.

Doctor Young: Edward, you know you don't come up for parole for another three years.

Riddler: First thing I'll do is visit that Italian place on 19th street.

Doctor Young: Seriously, Edward.

Riddler: I only hope Joker hasn't completely trashed the city, oh well, I'll find out soon enough…

Doctor Young: Wait! Have you been contact with the Joker? He escaped Arkham weeks ago.

Riddler: And yet… one hears things.

Doctor Young: What things, what have you heard?

Riddler: Oh, something about a surprise party for Batman, I forget the rest, you know Joker 'yack, yack, yack'.

Doctor Young: Edward! If you know anything you must tell me, lives could be at stake here, what did Joker say?!

Riddler: You forget, Doctor. I'm the one who asks the riddles.

(End Tape.)

Oh boy was Jester excited, in two days, just two, the big surprise party was going to happen, Joker was coming back and the black gate prisoners were all here and ready, she and Eddie had been hiding trophies all around the island and Jester had been watching Floyd and Garfield do a lot of running recently, she couldn't figure out why though.

Though now she sat on a bench, overlooking the Gotham bay, waiting for Edward to finish up with his session. Apparently this was going to be his last one with Doctor Young, not that he was complaining, he hated her, though, Jester did have to admit, she didn't know anybody who liked her.

"We like your colours."

Jester blinked. Was that someone talking to her?

She looked next to her to see a rather handsome man sitting next to her, he was staring directly at the Gotham bay.

"Ummm, thanks?" she questioned before frowning. "We?"

The man glanced at her, before turning fully and Jester went a tiny bit wide eyed before smiling back at him.

Of course, it was Two Face!

"We like your colours. They're very… ying and yang," he stated.

Jester giggled. "Aww, gee. Thanks, Harvey and… Two Face. I really appreciate it, glad ya like the colouring."

"It's perfect. We think, our two sons would like it too."

"You're two sons? You have two sons?"

"Yes, we do."

"Does that mean you have four sons?"

"No, just two. Twins."

It was hard to notice but, Jester went a little pale at the word twins and her pupils dilated, like she was remembering something.

"Twins?" she questioned.

"Yes. Ying and Yang."

"Ying and Yang Dent. Interesting."

"We think you're beginning to sound more like Nigma everyday," Two Face stated, which was probably true. She had hung around with Edward a lot. But she liked him.

"So… have you two heard?" she questioned staring back at the bay.

"About the surprise party? Yes, we have."

"Cool, cool."

"Jester what are you doing?" questioned Edward as he walked over and then he spotted Harvey. "Oh. It's you… two."

Harvey glared at him. "We don't want to talk to you."

Edward smirked. "You mean 'I' Harvey, 'I' don't want to talk to you."

Jester glared at Edward. "Oh shut it Eddie! Say, Harvey, are ya' kids here? In Arkham I mean."

"Yes, they are."

"Please don't tell me you're going to look for them. You still have to…supervise my trophies," Edward pointed out. "Plus, if those two saw you, they would become your best friends."

"And why's that bad Eddie?"

"Don't call me- oh forget it! But I'm serious! They will not let you go."

"And the reason?"

Edward glared at her a little before turning around and walking away. "Black and white Jester, black and white."

Jester jumped to her feet, before she chased after Edward.

"Ya' know Eddie, you were real mean back there. Why'd ya do that to poor toothy?"

"You've given him a nick name already?"

"Yeah, you got a problem with it?"

Edward sighed and shook his head. "No, I simply find it strange, but I find most things you do to be strange."

Jester giggled. "Well, at least I'm doing one thing right."

"Yes, one thing. I still have 20 more trophies to hide," Edward growled.

Jester smiled. "Well, we'll hide 10 today and 10 tomorrow. That way everything will be great and stuff."

Edward gave her a blank look.

"What?" asked Jester frowning.

"Oh for the love of… 'That way everything will be great and stuff', English Jester, do you speak it?" Edward growled.

Jester smirked. "Only on Sundays."

Edward chose not to respond to that comment, instead he slapped the upside of Jester's head, a small habit he'd gotten himself into, the first time she'd said something stupid.

Jester rubbed the back of her head and glared. "Would ya' please stop doing that, it's irritating."

"Well, do you leave me alone?" Edward snapped.

"No."

"Then I will not stop hitting you upside the head every time you say something stupid or something that lacks logical sense."

"Then I reckon you've missed a few times. I thought what I said, always lacked logical sense, as well as intellect."

Edward stared at her like she'd grown a second head.

"What?" asked Jester still frowning.

"Harvey's right, you're beginning to sound like me more and more," he muttered before walking through the abandoned corridor.

"Eddie, I think this place is abandoned for a reason," Jester muttered as they continued their walk, Jester keeping an eye out for any falling objects.

"You worry too much."

"You don't worry at all. Besides, I'm the one with the trust issues and right now, they're really teetering for you on if I trust you or not."

Edward stopped in his tracks and stared straight ahead.

"What's up?" asked Jester frowning. "Yo' big brother 'R', you seen somebody or something?"

"You trust me?" Edward questioned, still not looking at her.

Jester had noticed one thing about Eddie's voice, it always sounded slightly amused, except when he got angry, then it sounded like the devil had possessed him, but when he was normal Eddie, he had a slight tone to his voice that sounded amused and it was there all the time, but it was mixed up with a coldness that was rolling underneath. That's why she could easily hear the surprise in his voice.

"Yeah…" she trailed off raising an eyebrow. "That a problem?"

"It's not wise to trust people in this line of work, Jester," Edward stated still not looking at her before he began to walk again.

"Wait, ya' saying I can't trust you?" Jester questioned.

There was another pause. Truth be told, Edward wasn't sure how to answer that. It was true though, the kid really shouldn't trust him. No matter how much he liked her, at the first sign of trouble, he was going to drop her. It was in his nature to do so. Self preservation was far more important to him then looking after someone else, that's why he believed Batman was crazy, he couldn't believe that anybody could be that selfless, it was impossible.

Edward sighed and glanced up at sky. "What I'm saying is, you shouldn't rely on everyone you meet and like. It's dangerous."

"You didn't answer my question Eddie, you avoided it," Jester pointed out.

Edward narrowed his eyes at her. She was beginning to notice things he did more and more. It was beginning to irritate him.

"You avoid every question I ask! I will not answer any of your questions until you start answering mine!" he snarled at her, but Jester merely laughed at him.

"Now that's the Eddie I know and love. Come on! We have the tunnels to finish off right? Lets blow this popsicle stand!" she cried as she ran off.

They snuck into the tunnels, Edward helping Jester occasionally across the gaps.

"Where we hiding these?" she asked as they jumped another gap.

"The pump station. But there's a storage cupboard up here that I want to hide a trophy in."

"But won't that be a little easy?"

"I have to make some things easy for him. The Dark Knight is an idiot and this game will prove that. Now, get over here help me hide this- what the hell?" Edward raised a confused eyebrow at Floyd and Garfield who stood, hiding in the cupboard, Floyd holding a spade and Garfield holding a broom.

Jester peeked in and smiled. "Hi guys! What ya' doing?" then a wicked grin spread across her face. "Ya' coming out the closet?"

Floyd scowled at her. "I'm not that way inclined! I date girls, now get in!" he snapped pulling her in, with Garfield pulling Edward in and then he slammed the door.

"What's going on?" asked Jester, she was confused.

"We're hiding," Floyd hissed.

Edward raised an eyebrow. "From what?"

"Drury!" Garfield snapped at him, waving the broom around.

"Why? Is he chewing holes in your sweaters?" Jester giggled.

"No!" snapped Floyd. "He's gone crazy!"

"He's a moth," Edward pointed out. "Anyone would have a slight mental collapse if they went to bed a man and woke up a moth."

"He's trying to kill us!" Garfield yelled.

"He's a moth."

"A killer moth!"

"He has a point Eddie."

Edward gave her a glare. "What's the worse he could do? He's a moth. What even got you to be this scared of him?"

"Oh I don't know, maybe it was when he looked at us, with a hungry look to his eyes and said 'meat'!"

Edward raised an eyebrow skeptically.

"It's true!" Garfield protested.

"I'll believe it when I see it," Edward stated.

"Why do you think we've been running?! Drury's been chasing us!"

"Yeah and have ya' seen that guard?!"

Edward smirked. "There's no closet in the garden, so someone is using the roof instead."

"What?" they both asked in confusion, making Edward roll his eyes and Jester giggled.

"The answer to the riddle is the guard he coccooned up there, we have seen him, poor guy," Jester explained.

"Right, whatever. But you see, he's dangerous!" Garfield snapped, waving his hands around, while knocking a few things off the shelves when the broom hit them.

"So, you're hiding from a six foot moth, who has increased strength and senses, in a storage cupboard and your only weapons are a broom and a spade?" Edward questioned with a raised eyebrow. "You haven't really thought this through have you?"

Floyd and Garfield glared at him. Then they frowned and bit their lips, before glancing at each other.

He had a point.

"It was a spur of the moment choice!" Floyd protested.

"Very spur of the moment!" Garfield cried, waving the broom around again.

"Will you cut that out!" Floyd snapped at him, while he grabbed the broom off him and shoved it to the floor.

"Well, you were the one who told me to grab it!"

Edward and Jester gave each other looks before shaking their heads. "Well, we have to go. Trophies you see."

"No you can't!"

Edward rolled his eyes. "He's just a moth," she snapped as he opened the door and was greater by a very angry Drury Walker on the other side, who lunged at him and tried to bite him.

Edward gave an undignified scream and slammed the door shut, with the help from the others.

"We told you!" Floyd snapped, but Jester was giggling.

"You scream like a girl Eddie," she stated while she continued to giggle.

Edward glared. "Really, that's all you got from that?"

"Pretty much."

Another huge thud sounded as Drury attempted to batter the door in.

"Gotta say, this storage room door it pretty tough," Jester commented as she played with a trophy in her hand.

"How the hell is she so calm?!" screamed Garfield as he put all his weight against the door.

Edward shrugged. "I've come to the conclusion she's too insane to be scared."

Jester nodded. "And you'd be correct."

"She's sounding more and more like you Nigma," Floyd growled.

Edward smiled as did Jester.

"That wasn't a compliment," Floyd hissed, making both smiles disappear.

Another roar sounded as Drury tired to batter the door down once more.

"We need," Jester paused an tapped her chin in thought. "A moth ball."

"If you have one that's big enough handy, now would be a good time to use it!" Edward seethed as he helped Floyd and Garfield keep the door shut, with the force moth was slamming against the door it was amazing the thing hand't fallen off it's hinges.

Jester shook her head. "Sorry, afraid I don't carry giant moth balls around with me, that would be strange."

"You had industrial cabal with you!"

"That was sensible."

"Since when did you do sensible?"

"Recently."

This was not helping their current situation.

"Where the hell is Batman when you need him?" Floyd growled.

"Yeah, he's always there when we don't want him, as soon as we want him! He's not freakin' here!" Garfield yelled.

Suddenly the door came of it's hinges and the three stumbled back as Drury chucked the door behind him.

They all held their breath.

Drury smiled at them and then… he burst out laughing. "Your faces! Oh my god! My acting was really good then, haha sorry guys but that's just too funny!"

Jester blinked. "It was a prank?" she paused before laughing also. "Ha! Good one Drury!"

The other three were less then thrilled.

Garfield was furious. "You… you.. you stupid moth!" he screamed lunging at him.

Drury gave a scream that sounded like a girls and went crawling away, with Garfield and Floyd chasing after him.

Edward was seething but Jester just patted his back. "Think of it like this Eddie, Drury has all that power yet he chose to use it as a prank."

"Your point?"

"Be glad he didn't really want to eat us."

Edward paused and sighed. "You still have all those trophies?"

"Yes, why wouldn't I?"

"Come on, we have more to hide."

"Sure thing Eddie!"

"I'm not even going to bother," Edward sighed shaking his head. He guessed, that 'Eddie' was just going to have to be his name from the child from now on.

"Okay Big Brother R'! Lets do this!"

"Be more patient, little sister," Edward found himself muttering as Jester wizzed past him, her arms spread out like she was flying.

"Eddie, I'm a black and white bumble bee, I've decided."

Edward frowned. Had he heard he right? Surely he hadn't. "Pardon?"

"I'm a black and white bumble bee," Jester concluded.

"And you came to this conclusion…. how, exactly?"

"Well, I was sitting in the rec-room when I was thinking-"

"That would be a first."

"When I was thinking," Jester hissed. "About all the times I run into windows, I spotted a bee and then it hit me!"

"The idea or the bumble bee?"

"The idea silly. I saw how it was running into the window and I suddenly thought to myself 'Jester, you are a black and white bumble bee' and now my life is complete!"

Edward blinked. "I'm so happy for you."

"Aww, thanks big brother 'R'! Now! To the trophy hiding place!" she cried marching off.

"Wrong way Jester."

"Sorry."
