Chapter 2

KylePOV

I was pretty sure I felt jaw drop. Joker was holding the kid behind the counter by the collar. I didn't know why the Joker and Harley were robbing a fast food restaurant, banks are more their thing. I grimaced as Joker turned around when the bell thing alerted him to my arrival.

"Hello. I can obviously see you guys are in the middle of something..." I said, glancing at all the scared pedestrians looking at me. And I was one of them. "...so I'll just leave you to it." I turned abruptly on my heals and 'oofed' when I ran into a huge guy with a club. I turned around. "..or I could stay awhile..hehehe."

Joker smiled and narrowed his eyes as he came up to me, dragging the worker behind him. "Hello." He said pleasantly.

"H-hey." I said, swallowing the lump in my throat. He glanced down at my shirt and swiftly back up to my eyes.

"I don't really like your shirt actually." he frowned. I guess he wouldn't, I mean it did have his arch enemy's logo.

"I'm sorry.." I said, why this mattered? Don't know.

"Well, care to sit down?" He said, waving his free hand to a booth where another scared costumer was shaking.

"I'd really rather not..." I said.

"Oh nonsense. Sit." He said, getting that murderous tone and that look that said-sit down or I blow your brains out-kinda hard to argue with that logic. I sat next to the customer and grimaced.

Joker went back to playing with the worker. He took him to the back room and we heard a lot banging around. Like the worker was trying to get away. Then I heard a loud BANG! and held my breathe as the door slammed open. The Joker came out, blowing on his machine gun. That wasn't exactly a good sign. Holy crap I wanna go home. Like, now. I kept thinking frantically, hoping that I would wake myself up. Wake up! Wake up!

The Joker had a smug smile on his face as he grabbed Harley's hand. He walked to the door and bowed. "Good day ladies and germs. I bid, adieu." He said, then he, Haley and his goons hit the road. That couldn't be it. Joker hardly let witnesses live. I thought hard. There could really only be two reasons why they left. One, is that he just decided to let us go. Or two, he was gonna blow the building up.

Crap. Just, just crap. I ran into the kitchen and blocked the sight of the dead worker on the ground. I frantically looked around. There! On the stove was a bomb. 30 seconds left. I ran back out of the kitchen to the startled customers.

"We've gotta go! There's a bomb! Run!" I yelled. Everyone scrambled for the door. I was last and I saw a little boy screaming for his mom. I hauled him up and ran out the door. I got as far as I could. When I heard the explosion behind me, I dived, protecting the kid's head with my hands. I felt shrapnel fall on me. At least the kid was okay. I heard sirens coming closer. Why is it that the pizza guy gets to you're house faster then the cops or firemen do?

I lifted my head. The building was in flames. I sat up, the kid crying in my arms, clinging to my neck. I hugged him as a firemen came up to us. I glanced around and didn't see Gordon. The firemen took the kid from me and I decided I could slip out quietly. I got away from the crowd and inspected myself in a shop mirror. Only a couple scratches on my face. Not bad. Now I needed to find some food. I walked a little way as it was growing darker.

I felt a shock of pain in my side. I touched my rib and found blood on my hand. "Well, how did I not notice that?" I muttered to myself. My vision was going fuzzy. I worked my way to an abandoned ally and sat down. I had lost a lot of blood. So not good.

Right before I passed out, I saw a super big bat jump down from a roof.

Then it was dark.
