What A Clown...

41] By My Side

---(TwoWeeksLater)---

"If Batman doesn't show himself then everyone will die. If anybody tries to leave the city, the perimeter will explode and light the city on fire." Joker spoke into the camera.

The Reporter sat still as the Joker waved his gun at all of the people in the corner. She straightened up as she looked over at the live recording camera.

"Don't you ever get enough? First you take Dent and then you kill Miss V...Now you want to get Batman again? You want all our hope to go against us?" She said and he snapped to her smiling widley with blade in hand.

"I want the uh...world to admit that the best of you are just uhm how do I put it in the most horrible terrifying way?" He chanted then smiled again. "Just...like me." He giggled and kicked a glass table away laughing as he calmed down his laugh.

"Hehe Harvey was a good example didnt take that much for him to wake up. Miss V was just as I was...always By my side ,thats how I got my connections...I just need batman to do the same..." He sang and everyones eyes widened as he put his blade to her mouth.

He started laughing and his goons came and threw all the hostages in front of the camera and covered them in gasoline. "Why So Serious, Doll?" He started and her eyes filled with fear.

He smacked his lips and looked at her blond hair that reminded him of Harley's. "You should smile more...Like Me!" He sang and let out a loud laugh slicing her mouth and stepping back.

He started laughing as deep inside he heard a little voice. His laugh covered that voice and now he was as crazy as ever. He had broken Half of gotham down more than it had ever been. And it only took him another tragedy.

If only she was there to burn the rest with him.

"Starting today batman I will start my little game. And this...was my first turn. Now its Batman's...he decides if he wants to pass." He said lighting a little flame and throwing it to the people.

They started screaming as the fire spread across their skin and they screamed bloody murder. The smell of flesh was amusing and The Joker laughed. The camera soon got covered by smoke but you could still hear the screams.

Half of Gotham looked like a city after a zombie invasion. Joker had come back after the Mayors death bigger and more crazier than ever. Setting a bomb at Gotham's Prison and the ones that survived now worked for him in the destroyed part of the city.

He didn't have the simple pleasure of watching them squirm in fear and making them smile. Now he would let them bleed or burn to death. It was like if gotham was slowly turning into a horror movie.

But that was just downtown Gotham...What about the rest?

(Bruce'sPOV)

Today was suppose to be great day to memorize The Mayor for what she did to the city. I know she was a villain and did the worst to the city but she also did the best. But then that Joker had to ruin everything.

We all stood in the ballroom as the T.V was went to static. We just saw Joker burn over 5 people live on the other side of town.

While we are here celebrating and that uptown Gotham has security gates around it with new police cars.

It seemed that the Mayor had made a lot of investments with the city's name and it was getting a lot of money. We started fixing uptown and all the schools.

Then we see this.

"What are we going to do? If batman doesn't show himself Joker will kill us all." A woman said. "All the damage he did the past few years is nothing compared to what he did this last week. What are we going to do!?!"

"Miss V would know what to do...she new the Joker better than anyone."

I froze at the mention of V. Its Been two weeks and I still cant believe she was dead. Its frustrating that I haven't caught Joker ,not even once after, since the time he blew something in my face.

I hate the fact that she had been threw so damn much to just die because of The Joker. I miss going to prep talks or robbed banks to just see her big silver eyes.

"You heard the joker...she probably new him better because she worked with him. He said so!" I heard someone else say and I clenched my jaw.

"If she did then she wouldn't have died because of one of his bombs." I heard Gordon say defending her and I turned to look at them. It made me mad that they said that.

It got me mad that she actually was working with him. It got me mad that if she was working with him, that she wouldn't have died in that stupid Bomb. But she did.

If Joker wouldn't be bugging right now about me turning myself in maybe I would. I would also go and beat the hell out of him but I made a deal with V and I promise to keep that one up.

After V's death Gotham got weird. Looked like all of its good luck went to uptown and Joker started moving from down to up. Looks like after V's death he went to finish their deal.

Half of the City was burned and everyone that hadn't moved out had to deal with Jokers scary crimes. He literally on Friday he went into a block and stormed in to every house carving smiles on all of them and a mess V cut at their waist to some girls around his age.

"Why don't we go help down town? He cant get in here now that the security is up right?" I heard as people started debating. I turned around and started leaving. "Bruce where are you going?" I heard Gordon but I just left.

That station wasn't far away...he couldn't be far.

The next chapter or so might be in third person if I don't feel like letting you inside Bruce's or Jokers head.

This was a filler because I want you guys to have something to read.
