Ok, as promised, i give you Chapter One! I will also try to promise that there will no longer be any chapters that were a short as the last.

Chapter 1

Four villains sat at a circular table at an otherwise abandon Iceberg Lounge. The Joker had made it clear to them all, in one way or another, that he wanted to meet them their on that day at 10 'O clock pm, sharp. Now he was late.

The participants in tonight's meeting were the Riddler, Poison Ivy, the Mad Hatter, and the Scarecrow. Each one of them had been threatened, black mailed, well you name it, to get them to come to this meeting. As much as most people despised the clown, no one wanted to get on his bad side.

"Good evening gent-tal-men. Ivy." They heard the familiar voice of the clown. "I'm delighted to see that you could all make it!"

"Like we had a choice!" Poison Ivy barked. Joker had threatened to blow up a national park in her honor if she didn't come, killing all the plants there along with it.

"Now, now Red, I called this little get together to help us all!" Joker sat down and propped his feet up on the table.

"Get to the point, Clown." Spoke the tired voice of Jonathan Crane. "There is something in my basement that requires my attention."

"Yes, Jonathan, we all know about your experiments. Who is it this time?" Edward Nygma sighed.

Scarecrow waved his hand in the air to show how unimportant it was. "Woman, 53, five foot two, quite an interesting phobia, Anthropophobia. It's the fear of flowers."

Joker clapped his hands. "Lovely, Spooky! Now, on to business! I have a brilliant idea that I think will benefit all of us!"

"Sharing a brilliant idea? That's hardly like you Joker." The Riddler remarked.

"Well, to be truthful…" Joker looked around the room as if checking to see if anyone was listening. "I stole the idea from Batman!"

Everyone at the table eyes widened. "Madness!" Jarvis called out quietly.

"What idea would you possibly want to steal from him?" Ivy asked.

"Elementary my dear Watson! I want a sidekick! An apprentice, a child to continue my legacy!"

"You want a kid?" Edward blinked. "And you are telling us this why?"

"Because I think we should all have kids! Think of all the possibilities! We won't stay young forever, and when the time to kick the bucket finally comes, we will have our own Mini-Me's to keep up our brilliant work!"

"I hate to admit it, but the Joker is making sense!" Edward gasped. For a show of dramatics, the Mad Hatter put a hand over his mouth and gasped.

"What's your plan?" Ivy said skeptically.

"Simple! We go into Gotham General, the most corrupt school in Gotham, go under cover so we can take a look at the kiddies and pick one!" Joker made an animated motion of picking an invisible something of a tree.

"Mistah J! I got em!" They heard Harley's accent call as she walked through the door.

"Good girl!" Joker patted her on the head and took her files. "Now let's see. A math sub… here ya go Eddie! Hatter you get creative writing. Johnny-Boy! You can take school councilor! Relive your days as a physiatrist. Now let's see here… Ivy you can get life science. Oh, Harley! How did you know I always wanted to be a janitor?"

"I figured it would be easier for you to see the kiddies that way, Puddin'" Harley said.

"Good job." He briefly congratulated. "Ok, boys and girls, here are the rules! Ya look around for kids that ya think will be good to do what you do best." He explained.

"Out of curiosity, what did you do to the teachers we are replacing?" Jarvis asked.

"Oh yeah, that reminds me, Johnny-boy I got a present for you and Scary. Follow me!" The Joker led them to a big van out on the street. They opened the back to five people tied up and gagged.

"I'm betting you're wondering what teachers fear!" The Joker laughed manically and Scarecrow soon joined. They knew he was in on the plan now.

"Joker, who says I agree to this?" Ivy asked.

"Red, you get to take a girl and make her just like you!" Harley squealed. "She can love plants and be strong willed, and not like men!"

"Harley I don't know…" Ivy didn't snap at the girl but turned her voice into a slightly nicer tone.

"Come on Red, what's the worst that could happen? If you get one then that's one more person fighting for the planet. One more person to take care for your plants!"

"Fine, I'll do it!" She caved in.

"Great!" Joker called out. "Now what about you two?" He turned to the Riddler and the Mad Hatter.

"I would love to find a smart Alice to come with me to Wonderland." Jarvis answered.

"I'm assuming that means ya-es!" Joker sung.

Edward shrugged. "With the way the worlds heading, I need to find someone to keep Gotham on their toes before their minds turn to mush."

"Good! See you all on Monday!" Joker called before getting in the car with Scarecrow to go drop off the people at his lair.

"What have we gotten ourselves into?" Edward said to himself.

"Quite a predicament." Jarvis answered before going his own way home.

As i said, all of your favorite villains, and for those of you who didn't see your own obscure favorite Gothamite, well try to picture him/her working with a child without killing her/him and then complain to me about it. Or better yet, don't. In the next chapter you kind of get to meet the Kiddies, well some of them, we gotta space them out a bit, too much to write for one chapter. R&R!
