"Harley… where's the phone?" The Joker asks as he walks into the living room.
"On the table puddin' on top of all my beauty magazines" Joker could not help but feel a punch in his heart when Harley said beauty magazine. It reminded him of his doll face. You would always look through those magazines. We use to fight, I use to punch you in the mouth… time later, and you use to try everything in your power to look beautiful for me. Can you not just leave me alone already doll face? The Joker thinks to himself. He takes the cell phone and throws the magazines on the floor.
"Puddin', why did you throw my magazines on the floor?" Harley asks... trying to hide her fright once, she saw the sudden anger in his eyes.
"You don't need that crap Harley, burn those things will ya!" He mutters in anger.
"You really mean that puddin'?" She asks shyly.
"Stop asking such dumb questions, just burn those things already," He snaps. He opens the cell phone and dials the Gotham police department number.
"Hello Gotham police station, Commissioner Gordon speaking"
"Hello Commissioner… missed your favorite clown?" The Joker asks with a smirk on his face.
"Joker… what are you planning this time?" Commissioner Gordon asks. As soon as his teams hears Commissioner Gordon say the Joker's name, they try to trace his call.
"Can't I just call to say hi… we really have a lot of catching up to do" The Joker responds sarcastically.
"Cut the nonsense and just tell me what you want," Commissioner Gordon snaps, making the Joker laugh.
"After all these years… you would think that by now you'd get over what happened years ago," The Joker says in laughter.
"You almost caused Gotham total destruction, you killed Dent and caused Batman to leave us," Gordon says, making the Joker laugh again.
"So he needed a break from his tights, who could blame him?" He cackles.
"This is no laughing matter Joker" Commissioner Gordon exclaims in anger.
"Speaking of which I hope you're ready for a laugh" The Joker says, staying on the line.
"Laugh… what… Joker...!" Commissioner Gordon yells over the phone. Suddenly an explosion was heard by the main office.
"What was that…?" Officer Fernandez exclaims, running to the main office, Commissioner Gordon drops the phone and follows him. Screams, yells and laughs echoed through Gotham's police station. The Joker could not help but laugh hysterically.
"Did it work puddin'?" Harley asks.
"Of course it did Harley… and this is only the beginning!" He exclaims.
"Puddin' you're amazing…!" Harley gushes, pulling the Joker into a hug.
For the past few days, Leonora would always wait for Rosemary outside Wayne Enterprise. They would walk home together afterwords. In addition, everyday, Bruce Wayne would see her as he walked to his car. She was mysterious, enchanting to him, yet he did not have the guts to talk to her again. Normally, he could ask any girl of his interest to go out with him. However, Leonora Santoro you could say was intimidating. Who are you Leonora Santoro…? Bruce would always ask himself. It was five minutes before Rosemary would come out of work, and she was already there waiting for her friend. Talk to her already Wayne… what are you a five year old? Slowly he walks up to her, she notices and smiles. This should be fun… and I thought my eyes played tricks on me the first day we met.
"Ms. Santoro… so nice to see you" Bruce says.
"Can't say the same Wayne…" She giggles.
"Do you still have that concept of me?" He asks.
"What concept Mr. Wayne…?" She asks back.
"I know it's not a good one, from what Ms. Jones told me that day of her interview" He smirks.
"Was it an interview or a questionnaire on me?" She says with a flirty smile on her face.
"She apologized for your rude behavior with me that's why" He responds. What a bright answer rich boy. She thinks to herself.
"The one that should be apologizing is me don't you think?" She answers.
"I highly agree Ms. Santoro, but I'm smart enough to know that that will never happen" He chuckles.
"Intelligent indeed Mr. Wayne… and I like that" She says.
"Leonora… lets go" Rosemary says, freezing as soon as she sees her boss talking to her friend.
"Oh sorry boss I um…" Rosemary mumbles shyly.
"It's okay Ms. Jones I was just leaving, I hope to talk to you soon Ms. Santoro" Bruce says.
"Call me Leonora and the same goes here Wayne," She says with a taunting smirk on her face.
"I'll be seeing you tomorrow Ms. Jones," He says, leaving both girls alone.
"What was that all about…?" Rosemary asks as soon as Bruce was absent.
"Nonsense that's what… but you know what Rose? I'm starting to like him after all," She says, making Rosemary smile.
"That's nice… who knows maybe you two will have a little something something going on soon!" Rosemary teases as they walk.
"Please Rosemary… you've said it yourself, he's a known playboy and you know how I feel about those kind of men" I would cut him open if he would dare double cross me…! She thinks to herself.
"Okay… sorry, but anyways… did you know that Jennifer's coming to Gotham soon?" Rosemary asks.
"Really when…?" Leonora asks.
"Ugh… May 19, in just a couple of weeks" She answers.
"Can't wait to see her again," Leonora says sarcastically.
"What's today's news Alfred…?" Bruce says as he drives home.
"The Joker attacked the police station a couple of nights ago, and he's plotting something against a major corporation here at Gotham, Wayne Enterprise could be in danger sir," Alfred informs him.
"There has to be something I could do Alfred" Bruce says, concerned about not only Wayne Enterprise, but Gotham City as well.
"You know my answer sir…" Alfred responds.
"He can't come back Alfred, Gotham's better off without him," Bruce quickly answers.
"Gotham wasn't ready for him back then, but now, Gotham City needs their hero more than ever. The Joker's back and this time, he'll bring Gotham down… unless The Batman stops him"
"I've helped Gotham City without him and I could do it now," Bruce says.
"Those were only the local criminal's sir…" Alfred replies.
