Sweet memories.


Everyone in Gotham knew not to give Jester sugar.

It was a rule in the villain's world. True, it was an unspoken rule but a rule non the less.

Jester was a hyper being so sugar didn't mix well with her.

But the problem was, Jester loved sugar so always tried to get it.

The rogues would try to stop her but she always managed to get some.

After she had had the sugar, Jester would visit a rogue and go nuts.

Unfortunately, it was Edward's turn to deal with a sugar full Jester.

Edward glanced over at the kid as she jumped up and down in front of him grinning.

Edward sighed. "If you keep doing that you'll wear a hole into the carpet."

Jester giggled. "I know. I want to see how deep I can go!"

Edward sighed again and put his head in his hands. It had been a mistake. A terrible mistake, to take Jester to the sweet shop. Why had he done it? What in his genius and brilliantly smart mind told him that taking Jester to the sweet shop was a good idea?


Jester's eyes went wide when she saw all of the different coloured sweets.

She loved sweets. She loved sugar.

Grinning from ear to ear Jester raced down the shelves as fast as she could picking up sweet box after sweet box.

Edward just stared at her in shock. He hadn't seen her run so fast. Even they were being shot at, Jester didn't move that quickly.

"What have I done?" muttered Edward as he ran after her.

He turned a corner and he came face to face with Jester.

"Eddie! Eddie, EDDIE, EDDIE EDDIE! I have found the thing I want! The ultimate sweet!" cried Jester jumping up and down.

She had only smelled the scent of the sweets and she was higher then a kite.

Edward sighed. "Which one is it?" he asked.

Jester grinned and pointed at a huge statue made out of every single sweet there was in existence.

Edward's eyes widened in fear and dread.

"Can I have it? Can I, can I , can I, can I?" asked Jester jumping up and down.

"Jester…." said Edward staring at the sweet monstrosity. "I don't think that you should have it."

Jester frowned. "But you said I could have anything I wanted. ANYTHING!"

Edward sighed. "Yes. But that was because I was thinking you would pick something a little bit smaller."

Jester stared at him. "Me? Pick something small?"

Edward sighed. "Yes and I can now see it was a stupid thought. You are way to greedy to pick anything small."

Edward turned to walk away, when Jester grabbed his arm and stared at him. "I have to have it Edward! Look how many sweets are on it!"

Edward was looking. Looking and dreading what would happen if he let Jester have it.

"I said you can't have it Jester. So you can't…" Edward looked at Jester to see she had given him 'the face'. The face that always got her what she wanted.

Edward stared at her. "You can't have… I mean it… Stop giving me that look!"

Jester didn't but instead intended it.

Edward sighed. "I said you can't… Oh fine. Get it and then lets go home."

Jester squealed with delight and raced off to get it, leaving Edward standing in the middle of the sweet shop, hitting himself silly in his mind.


Why had he done it? He knew the kid would go crazy.

"Say Eddie. Do you want some?" asked Jester holding a piece of his favourite chocolate in her hands.

Edward stared at her.

Resist it Edward. Resist it. You know it looks so lovely and nice and you know it will taste delicious but resist-

"Yes please Jester." said Edward as he stilled over to her.

Jester grinned and gave him the piece of chocolate. "Here. You can come and have some with me." she said pointing to all of the sweets.

Edward stared at it and began to smile. Maybe today wasn't that bad.

THE END.
