It seems that I was knocked out again, I had realised when I woke up some time later. I really couldn't tell when since the windows were all boared up. The sight that greeted me was an a messy room with not much in it besides a bed, a dresser and some shot up photo frames of some random family. I cautiously got up and rubbed my head, my hair was tangled and slightly greasing from 2 days of no showers, but I didn't really care to much. I got up from the bed and stretched, when suddenly the door slamed open. "Honey I'm home!" a high pitched voice proclaimed ecstaticly, and I automatically recoginzed it as the Joker.
I looked up at him from my head in my hands and he gave me a smile, or at least what was his permanent expression. "So what are you going to with me?" I asked to out of it to really sound as if I cared. The Joker laughed at this, his manic chuckles echoing through the room, " I like you sweetheart! Your different from the other girls… your like me….. a freak". I didn't deny this but I glared at him, "so again, what are you gonna do with me? You didn't answer my question…"
He smirked at me " well since I have helped you out, I thought you could help me out, I mean I introduced you to the real you and all..".
"Hilarity, I suppose I do like that…. But what do you want me to help ya out with?" I asked both apprehensive and curious at the same time.
"oh you know, ah, just a bit of this, a bit of that, and your old fashioned heist or two…" he laughed.
"wellllll…. I suppose I could, but aint gonnsa do it if people know who I am!" I remarked.
At this it drew an even bigger smile to his face. "I know just what you need! A costume!" he ran to the dresser and flung it open revealing a display of colourful clothes and stuff. " play dress up!" he smirked " be ready in twenty!" and with that he skipped out the room.
I got up of the bed and went over to the dresser and looked through it tossing stuff out, 'nope', 'nuh ah', 'no way' I thought to myself as I tossed various items to floor. Finally I smiled as I reached the bottom of the drawer.
…
Duh da da da da da duh I sang loudly as I stood at the top of the stairs. The joker and his goons stood at the bottom sorting out their weapons and stuff.
I slid down the banister and proudly poused, like some sort of strange model, and showed of my new getup, and from what I could see more than a few people in the room like it.
I had finally decided on a purple pinafore dress which I cut from knee length to just below my butt, and a striped orange and red body suit. The whole look was completed by a studded leather jacket, black chocker and gloves and also a pair of combat boots.
The joker looked me up and down, and sidled up to me, "lookin good doll" he smirked appreciatively. I was kinda surprised at this to tell you the truth since Harley Quinn had runaway just a month ago, but I was happy non the less.
With that he steered to the purple painted chevvy he had painted with a big smile, and pushed me in the shotgun seet. The other goons followed behind in a mini van, they had "pimped out" with various splashes of colour and random pieces of metal.
…
We sped through the streets of Gotham, and I was having I a blast. I stuck my head out the window and felt the wind in my hair, and it was amazing. Total freedom, the world was mine ( I mean ours) and no one would stop us.
…..
10 minutes later we arrived at some kind of run down factory and I watched as the guys lugged barrels of probably some kind of explosive. I turned to Joker and didn't say anything, I just bounced on my heels in anticipation.
The joker then looked at some form of invisible watch, And grinned widely. "here we go" he eagerly pronounced as he clamerbed into a waiting semi. He quickly glanced at me and tossed me a thing that looked like a detantor because I was. Again he smiled even wider at me, and with that blew me a kiss and with a screech of tires sped of in the truck, which I saw now had " Slaughter is the best medicine written on it:.
…..
I waited for around half an hour or so, when I suddenly felt my phone ringing in my pocket. I answered and of course it was Joker. I smiled to myself, "hit the button", he jeered and I obliged. The deafening blast from the building I stood maybe only two hundred yards from rocked the area, and it lit up the sky like it was the fourth of July. It was soooo pretty! And I could not look away from the burning sky.
I had stood there for a couple of minutes, when I was suddenly jolted back to reality with the sound of sirens. " shiiiiit!: I yelped and dived to the ground pretending to be an innocent bystander named Jenny who had been on her late night stroll".
However the police mobile that pulled up held the Joker rather than the cops. And I let out a breath of relief.
"nice work babe" he laughed as he saw the destruction, " I really cant take all the credit J, it wasn't my bombs that blew the place to timbuktoo!", I replied modestly without realising my nicknaming of him. I immediately clamped my mouth shut and was silently hitting myself when I realised I did this, but to my surpise he just laughed uproariously. And pulled me over into the police car he had "liberated" and shoved me into the passengers seat while I started giggling at the absubidity of what had just happened.
…. (joker pov)…..
The girl next to me laughing her head of in fuzzmobile interested me. You know 'ah' in the way a ball of yarn interests a cat, or 'ah' how a dying deer does to a wolf. I needless to say was quite pleased with my new toy, she was much less annoying than old Harley girl who was still in the nuthouse.
I stuck my head out the window as I tore through the streets of downtown Gotham, the night air whipping at my face, bring a smile to it.
We turned back up at the hideout in no time, with a few choice shortcuts through a public park and and a picnic and I jumped out of the car. It was time for some more fun for this fair city, and I was the only one who get help them out.
'Hilarity' hehehe I like that name, followed behind me like a good little puppy and watched as inside I started rummaging through draws and piles of crap.
"wha la!" I proclaimed as I pulled out what I had been searching for. A detonator. I wont tell you what for just yet, wouldn't want to ruin the surprise.
….. (hilaritys pov)
The thing he pulled out looked like some kind of RC remote that a demented mad toddler scientist had gotten his hands on, and I didn't ask, I just simply raised my eyebrow in query.
" this my dear is the key to chaos, and it is mine!" he warbled joyously. "now why don't you go on upstairs and doll you self up, we have a night on town ahead!" he chuckled and he very nearly skipped into the kitchen/ weapon storage.
I did not particulary like being called doll but I was not really gonna argue with the likes of him, so I went on up to the "powder room" and peered at myself in the mirror. The clownish makeup I was wearing was smeared and made me look more than slightly crazy. I giggled to myself at this, and proceded to smear on somemore white grease paint. Followed my black diamonds around the eyes, red circles on the cheeks and some lovely black lipstick. Once I was done I stepped back to admire my work, and once I pleased I skipped of back downstairs.
The joker was back in the main room and lounging on the couch, tapping his foot impatiently. "finally done ? women!" he proclaimed exasperatedly. I laughed, " hey you think it is easy looking this good!". " my sincerest apologies my dear" he said mockingly " but we have a schedule to keep".
With that he held out in his hands to me a nice big machine gun. "is it my birthday already" I asked curiously, trying to keep a sincere look on my face. He looked at me at this and laughed histerically, " no wonder I keep you around!". "now what you are going to do is go on a little field trip today, and I shall be your teacher!" he smirked, " we shall be studying the effects of heavy gun fire on bats". "oooooh sounds positively educational!" I happily replied, and with a salute yelled " where to teacher sir!?".
" that is a surprise darling, now hop on in the truck and lets go and start the lesson".
