Sarah didn't realise how chilling this place was. It was murky and cold, a perfect place for a killer. The joker was bundled up in his cell now. He had cheekily wolf whistled at her as he went in his cell. Sarah couldn't help the smirk that fell on her lips as she recalled the recent memory.

Sarah gave him a arrogant grin as she walked beside him with four guards 'I told you I'd be prepared' she said with a satisfied sigh.

The joker lifted his black orbed eyes at her 'no, you were paranoid. I made you think I'd escape when I didn't' he chuckled as she frowned.

Her heels clapped noisily across the floor 'I don't care. All that matters is that your safe and sound in this cosy' her hand swayed to the corridor with a look of disproval 'home' she said rosily.

The guards stopped at his cells. Sarah knew she shouldn't of done this but it was merely a mistake. She patted his shoulder absently then flashed him a full smile 'enjoy' she said sweetly. The joker's eyes flew to her hand. He had a look of anger but then it turned into amusement.

He chortled lightly as she realised what she'd done 'I knew you were desperate to touch me' he breathed in her face. The guards looked at them strangely.

Sarah blinked in shock then turned on the iciness 'I'll remind myself never to do that again' she sneered as she began to stomp off. The joker whistled after her.

'feisty isn't she?' he said casually to one of the guards.

The guard shook his head in disgrace 'shut it, clown' he said as he put him in his cell.

Sarah jumped back to the present when Commissioner Gordon walked over to her. 'how's it going with the joker?' he asked as he wiped a bead of sweat off his brow.

'It's going fairly well though you can never quite tell with the joker' she half joked.

'Sounds promising. I swear for a moment back there. There was going to be an attack but everything went smoothly' he breathed shallowly.

'Me too. So how many inmates does arkham hold?' Sarah asked as she looked around the room.

Gordon looked up at the ceiling 'about a hundred or so' he said as he looked back at Sarah.

'Right well I'm sure the joker will fit in pleasantly here' she said with a hint of sarcasm. This place was filled with the crazies and the joker was the top of them all.

'so I've been informed that your first session with the joker is today' Gordon said with a apprehensive expression.

'That is correct' she looked at her watch 'in twenty minutes exactly' she said with a half grimace. Well, she had insisted that their first session would be as soon as he was in Arkham so it was partly her fault.

'good luck' Gordon said thoughtfully. 'god knows. Your going to need it' he muttered.

Sarah exhaled loudly 'maybe but today isn't going to be that heavy. You just get on with it' she mustered.

'well I trust that you know what you're doing' he said as the monitor on his jacket came to life with a voice. 'this is my queue to leave' he smiled.

Sarah nodded 'thanks. Gordon' she said considerately.

Gordon left and Sarah sat down. This place is really creepy. A tiny part of her held the slightest ounce of pity for the joker but most of her just deliberated that it was his own fault.


The joker giggled as there was only 5 minutes to go until his precious little jester made an appearance. He thought back about when her hand touched his shoulder in a humane way. Strange. He remembered her beautiful smile beaming at him but then glowering at him like the furious little kitten she was. Something stirred in him. Did he like her? Enough to keep her alive. Yes he did. Because no matter how much he denied it a part of him wanted to protect her, hold her. Love her? No that was too far. This girl hated his guts and rightly too. Right now the only person breaking who was her breaking him. Softening him slightly. He huffed with rage. No the joker doesn't have feelings. Never.

Just then Sarah strode in and graciously sat in her chair with a innocent smile. 'liking your new home?' she asked with forced sweetness.

The joker let out a high pitched laugh 'of course dah-ling' he leered as his tongue darted out of his mouth.

Sarah joined her hands together dramatically 'I knew you would' she sing songed derisively. The joker let out a little laugh as his eyes strayed to her body.

Her eyes looked at his 'pay attention' she snapped her fingers at him knowing where his attention had gone to.

'I always am' he said knowingly with a tut.

Sarah pouted 'right so first name basis. Do you happen to know your real name?' she asked inquisitively.

The joker gave her a dashing smile 'as a matter of fact. I do but I'm not telling you' he smirked.

'why not?' sarah asked petulantly.

'story for another day' he said coolly. He leaned closer to her as she glared at him 'now tell us about you' he purred.

'I don't think so. I'm not the one being treated' she said smartly.

The joker tilted his head at her 'come on. I'm interested. Just one insy detail' he giggled.

'no' sarah said smoothly 'it's none of your business'

'is that so?' he asked severely

Sarah looked at her hands 'hmm' she said as she looked back at him under the hood of her eyelashes.

'but I want to know about my little minx' he said like a spoiled brat.

Sarah eyes flew at him in irritation 'don't call me that' she muttered darkly.

The joker licked his lips in exaggeration 'someone's got a temper' he tutted.

Sarah rolled her eyes 'enough about me' she snapped 'this is about you so if you won't answer my question will you answer me this one?' she asked with her head lowering slightly.

'depends on the question' the joker shrugged with a look of menace in his eyes.

'how did you really get the scars?' Sarah asked unsurely.

The joker shook his head 'nope. No comment'

Sarah groaned loudly 'give me something to work with here' she put her hand on her chin as she gazed at him with those big blue grey eyes.

'don't turn on the big doe eyes' he muttered with a gleeful smile.

Sarah's hands flew up 'I give up. This session is over' she started to gather her things up.

The joker peered at her with a low pitched laugh 'I'll tell you next week, beautiful' he gave a contented grin 'that's if you take these chains off'

Sarah bit her bottom lip in uncertainty then said 'deal' in agreement. She flashed him a full smile before turning to leave 'Have a nice week, Mr J' she called back sarcasically.

The joker licked a scar on his right cheek. Ohh, he would. Thinking about her.
