Fears

Chapter Three

"Well, you know why you are at Arkham right?"

She repeats again.

I just continue to stare. I like pissing people off. It's funny.

She stands and slams her fists down on the desk and I let out a scream. The door opens fast.

"She's hurting me!!"

I yell at the guard, pretending to be scared out of my mind.

"Okay, I think time is up..."

"But...I... But....."

She blinks at me and I grin darkly and wink at her.

The guard unhand-cuffs me from the desk and pulls me up. He brings me out of the room and stops looking back at the lady.

"Go and visit the boss."

"I didn't do anythin--"

"Go visit the boss."

He interrupts.

She sighs and nods her head, gathering her papers.

I laugh loudly and get dragged to another empty room. I hope Joker isn't going to be in this 'class'. I just want today to be over. It's already making mad with being Joker's new 'play buddy'.

I sit down and stare at my hands, I hear people start entering the room and I sigh. I don't want to look up anymore. I just want to be gone. I'll just think of my own plan to escape Arkham. It's so stupid here and we all get treated like little kids. Some people deserve to be treated like that..... Cough cough, Joker, cough cough......

I close my eyes and block everything out. I hate people. They all betray me.

All of them. Can't trust anybody.

All because of what happene-

"Nyx."

Somebody is shaking my shoudler.

I open my eyes fast and glare at them.

"What?"

I focus and see Jonathan shaking me. It seems only four people are in here, not counting the stupid 'teacher' or whatever you want to call them.

"You fell asleep."

"I did not!"

I say loudly. Everyone is already staring at me, so oh well. What do I care anyways?

Lets see. Jonathan, Jervis, .......Joker.... And me.

Great. Is Joker going to stalk me to all of my classes?! He's really making me angry. I hate him so much. Joker is now staring intensely at me. His eyes seem slightly different. He seems to be either looking past me.... Well we can rule that out, he's definitely staring right at me.

I shake my head.

"Nyx...."

I hear Jonathan repeat, making me turn my head to him fast.

"What, what do you want?"

"The guards have left, we are the only ones in here, though we have heavy security right outside the door. So try not to scream too loudly."

"What?"

I stare at him and look around, we indeed are alone. It's just us four.

Nobody has handcuffs on, including me, which is odd, because I came in handcuffed.... I shake my head and stand, so does Joker. I glare at him and bare my weird fangs. I quickly stop and look away to walk into a corner. I sit and mess with my scars. I have so many. I hear someone kneel in front of me and I smell something, not exactly sweet, but it smells comforting.

I look up and see Jervis holding out a cup of tea. I blink.

"What?!"

He jumps slightly, but doesn't spill the tea.

"Would you like some tea, Alice?"

"My. Name. Is. Not. Alice."

I growl at him.

"Then.... Then are you Dorothy?"

"What? Dorothy? Why would my name be Dorothy? My name is Nyx you imbecile."

I frown at him and look away. Dorothy? Dorothy....?

......Scarecrow and Dorothy.....

"NO!!! I AM NOT DOROTHY!!!"

I yell. He jumps, spilling some of the tea on himself. He frowns and just holds out the tea for me. I slowly grab it and sigh, carefully taking a sip. I blink, starting to feel dizzy. Jonathan smiles and walks over, kneeling as well, a smirk on his face.

"What's...... OW!"

Everything is louder than it should be. I look at Jervis and Jonathan after a few moments. Both of their eyes are glowing red. It would scare me, except..... Okay never mind. I do get scared.

Joker walks over, peeking over their shoulders. Wait. Something is different about him.... He's starting to change..... No......

No.

I feel myself shaking and something starts crawling up my arm. I swat at it and then look.

A giant spider is going up my arm. I sigh and pick it up. It's not scary. Just caught me off guard. I pet it and it explodes in my hand, a shower of maggots going everywhere. A few land on Jervis and Jonathan..... they slowly melt away as I'm sucked away into a land of fears. My father is standing there.

This isn't going to be fun.
