Hello Joker, Won't You Play My Game?

It's All Business

-Joker-

I watched with amusement as the doors were slammed closed before I turned back to Shinoda who stood with his cane at his side, a cane I've seen him kill people with. The memory makes me smirk. 

"Your new outfit is yet another masterpiece, Joker," I grin and start pealing my mask from my face and letting my hair free. 

"You caught on faster this time, Shinoda!" 

I exclaim which makes him shake his head with a chuckle. 

"Your smirk is a dead giveaway." 

I walked closer to him as he did the same before he bowed in greeting. I myself put a hand to my chest and nodded my head respectfully but I refused to bow to a man, he knew this and that was keeping his head from rolling on the floor currently. 

"I appreciate you being able to get me here, it's not easy working while being distracted by a game," I tell him as he guides me to two chairs and a table set up for us. 

He pulls a chair out for me which I sat in after giving him a grateful look. "You've really outdone yourself with your choice of chess piece this time, Joker, if he finds out this meeting wasn't centred around him, he'll raise a fuss," 

Raising a fuss was the nicest way he could put it. If Alexander found out that Shinoda's intention was to bring me here specifically then he'd have all of the undergrounds set on fire and I for one wasn't a fan of trying to find my diamonds within their ashes. 

"Rest assured, I can handle Alexander," 

"Consider me assured," He replies and we raise our glasses of sake that was poured for us by one of his servants. 

I took a sip, watching him as he drank his too. Before I could put the cup back on the table, both of our demeanours had changed and the whole room could feel it, the men around us visibly tensing. 

"My men?" I asked and his eyes met mine. 

"Safe, as promised," 

"And the target?"

I watched as he motioned to one of his men who then dropped a head on the table, blood splattering all over but none of us could care less. 

I nodded in satisfaction. After a glance around I could tell it was what I had wanted. I had to be cautious because I knew that a mistake in judgement could cost me, and I refused to be done by a fake head. I've seen others fall for it and it was quite damaging to a reputation. Of course, the only fake head able to deceive that well was of my own creation but one couldn't be too trusting. 

"I can assume I'll be getting the payment we agreed upon?" Shinoda asks back at me and I nodded, pleased he decided to ask. 

I took the head from the table which surprised Shinoda's men, not expecting me to want to touch something so hideously disgusting but I was about to shock them more when I put my hand up where the neck was cut, into where I could feel the dried air pipes before forcing a rip between the skin of the cheekbone and the skull from the inside, feeling for what I was looking for before pulling my hand out. 

I put the small plastic bag on the table before lifting my now bloody hand. One of Shinoda's men came to my side with a handkerchief right away but tried handing the handkerchief to me which, before I could even act disappointed in the action, Shinoda ordered,

"Clean it," 

I smirked. He knew me so well and despite the hesitance in the man, he slowly began cleaning my hand for me. 

Inside the packet, I had handed to Shinoda was a new drug, one I had created with my specialists. When the word got out about it, the price for a gram like the bit I gave him was worth $1.4 million and that wasn't the crazy part, what was was the fact that no one outside of my facility knew what it did yet.

That was his next question. 

"Want to test it?" I asked him and lowered my hand after his man cleaned it for me. "Thanks, hun," I say winking at him, amused at the pink dusting his cheek as he walked back after a bow. 

Shinoda looked at me with curiosity, "Who would it have to be?" I shrugged innocently but I knew he wouldn't test it out on his own men knowing what I could come up with and he was right in thinking so. 

"Why not Alexander's men?" I suggested but his face didn't look comfortable. 

"I have a peace with him-"

"I said I'd take care of him," I gave back with threat laced in every word. 

After a moment of being taken aback by my tone, he nodded and one of the men was dragged inside soon after. I could tell they had removed his blazer and shirt as I requested. I knew about the cameras that Alexander was using to keep an eye on us and I knew this was something I couldn't let him see so I ordered they be removed before he stepped in here. 

It was a shame though, this one was the one I had fun teasing on the plane, his stare of desire being fun to entertain. I thought it was at least fair I gave him a favourable farewell. 

I stood up from my seat, taking only a crumb of the drug inside the packet with me and started walking towards the man who looked so confused as everyone watched us but as soon as he saw me walking up to him, his eyes were solely on me. 

I pushed my hair over my shoulder, taking off the over shirt I had which masked my physic to look like that of Alexander's and knelt down to him as he hadn't stood up yet. His knees were slightly parted in front of him so I put a hand on the floor between them, making sure to 'accidentally' stroke his groin as I did which perked him up.

"What are you-?" He was going to ask but I shushed him, putting a finger to his lip before trailing it down his bare chest. I could see him shiver under my touch. I smirked at my effect. He no longer needed shutting up. I knew that whatever I did now, he would crave again for as long as he lived. 

I brought myself forward and attacked his lips, forcing my tongue into his mouth as I kissed him roughly. He was taken by surprise but despite everyone watching us, he kissed me back desperately, grabbing onto one of my breasts which was in distaste to me but I forgave him considering what I knew what I was just about to put in him. I teased him by putting all of my body against his own, letting him take advantage of it, feeling as much of it as he could before I pulled away from him. 

"Put this in your mouth for me," I whispered in his ear and with his sense of desperation to have me back on him, he eagerly opened his mouth, letting me drop the drug in and watch it slide down his throat. 

I stood up devoid of emotion after that. I let everyone in the room watch because it would allow them to feel a minuscule fraction of what he was about to feel now. 

I sat back in my chair and watched down at him, legs crossed. His eyes were still on me but it wasn't of the lust he had just a second ago. He was starting to feel it. I knew he was. 

He suddenly breathed harshly which made everyone else in the room watch in anticipation. He shut his eyes and cocked his head back, groaning in what seemed like pleasure. Unbearable pleasure. "Fuck," He kept moaning, sweat starting to drip down from his forehead but he was unable to move. The drug made it so he was unable to move. He was forced to feel a sort of pleasure that you'd only wish your climax could give you, except continuously, when suddenly. 

"ARGHHHAA!" He scream filled the room. This was no longer of pleasure. We could all tell the difference. This was of suffering pain. "HELP ME!" He begged as his body rolled around the floor, trying to escape the pain in itself. "AH!" The screams were continuous too for a while before the drug was nearing the end and that's when his screams became hard pleasured huffs again until he finally passed out. 

I looked back at Shinoda with a disinterested face, drinking the rest of my sake as he recovered from his shocked reaction to the scene in front of him. 

After I realised his lack of words for what he just saw, I casually continued. "The smallest doses leave you alive, but I'm sure you could have guessed that at any higher dose, whether it's the wave of intense pleasure or the wave of intense pain, it'll kill." 

Shinoda finally breaks out of his shock and turns to me, impressed. 

"And what do you call this drug?" 

I put my cup down before answering him. 

"Torturing Love."
