The gal who broke his smile

The Plan

'Alice Coopin pleased ta meech'yah!' She giggled and held out a hand for him to shake. She waited for at least a minute before an icy cold hand slowly wrapped around her's. 'Why yah here, dear?' The joker grinned letting go of her hand. 'Well, I need some help' she replied as the joker glanced up at her still in the dark. 'What kind of help are looking for, my dear?' He smirked.

She skipped over to his bed then sat her self down cross legged and put her elbows on her knees in a huff. 'It's Bruce Wayne! I need your help to get into his mansion!' She said with a sigh. The joker suddenly got up from his slumped position in the corner. 'Any particular reason why?' He asked curiously. 'I need to get into his bat cave' she replied. The joker jerked up suddenly and was about to say something when he was cut off by Alice. 'I did my research' she said before he could speak. 'And why do you want to get into his bat cave, honey?' She looked up and sighed. 'I want his butler' she replied putting her head down. 'And why do you need his butler?' He asked curiously. 'Do yah always ask so many questions?' She snapped to which he glared at her but kept his calm. 'Only when I'm interested dear, and you're very interesting' he grinned. She sighed and stood up. 'He's my uncle, but he doesn't know it. He thought his sister died years ago but she didn't. She died last year actually. Giving birth to my brother, who also died with her'

The joker loosened his collar and grinned. He put an arm round her and stepped out side his cell and over the guards' bodies looking at the damage she had done and was impressed.

The alarm suddenly went off as the joker grinned. The guards swooned in with guns and Alice used her skills to take them out. She twisted their arms and flipped over them twisting their necks using the same techniques as before. She then grabbed a dead guard's gun and started shooting at the guards while laughing. She then grabbed the jokers hand and ran into a tight closet filled with medical equipment. He picked up a large needle and giggled. Alice smacked the needle out of his hand playfully then stuck a finger to her lips while she silently giggled.

She heard the guards run past then peeked her head from behind the door to see if the coast was clear. She suddenly grabbed the joker's hand then ran out and shot more guards standing at their only exit. They ran out and ran into the court. Alice pressed a button and she waited a couple of second before the whole left wing of the asylum blew up from where they had just come from. Both her and the joker laughed hysterically as the joker's van along with his henchmen popped up. 'I thought you'd like a few familiar faces to help yah through this little trip hehe' she giggled and got into the back of the van along with the joker. 'You really are something, Doll' he smirked. 'Where to boss?' Asked Rocco. 'Home, Rocco ol' boy haha' he explained and pointed a finger north as the truck sped off.

'How did you escape boys?' Asked the joker suddenly curious. 'Alice broke us out and told us the plan just before breaking you out, boss' replied Rocco glancing back at Alice who was humming at the back of the truck. Joker grinned and looked at her. She didn't notice his stare, she was too busy fighting with the voices that were yelling in her head.

They reached the old warehouse where the joker had made a cozy little home for himself. It had several bedrooms which were once offices. He only used them when he needed his goons overnight. Alice skipped merrily inside humming to herself as her pigtails bounced as she skipped. She burst through the door and was amazed how pretty it looked on the inside. She ran to his 'toy box' and pulled out a huge mallet and giggled. She then pulled out a machine gun and turned around facing the joker accidentally pointed the gun to him and his goons. 'Is it loaded?' She asked looking at it unaware that she was pointing it at them. The joker grinned then laughed loudly. 'You're quit a show, kid.' He laughed gestured her to come to his office.

She quickly put down the gun and skipped towards his office. The goons sighed in relief and watched her skip away. 'Close the door will you dear? Can't have them idiots snooping around in here.' He said and sat down at his desk. He signaled Alice to sit on the purple couch beside him. She skipped over to it and sat down cross legged once again like a child.

The joker faced her and realized that the blood on her trouser leg hadn't dried up. Instead, the blood patch was getting bigger and running down her leg. It couldn't have been the guards. It must be hers! He quickly ripped her trouser leg and saw that she had been shot in her calve! She looked at it and laughed. 'Haha! I wonder how that got there!' The joker grinned at her sarcasm and laid her down. He put a belt around the wound and cleaned the blood. He then examined the wound and realized the bullet had gone straight through. That was lucky.

He looked at Alice who was still giggling at the voices and he grinned back. Oh I like her hahaha he thought as he got out a needle and thread and started stitching up the wound. He didn't use any morphine, he didn't need to. She had too much adrenaline rushing through her he'd be surprised if she could feel a pinch.

He cleaned her up then gave her a change of clothes. 'See, doesn't that feel better dear?' He said in a cooing voice as though you would speak to a child. 'Hahaha boy, is this gonna hurt in the morning!' She explained coming out from behind the curtain in some of joker's green boxers and one of his purple shirts. 'I guess I'm just gonna have tah stay with you until my leg feels better.' She said sarcastically, knowing that he would say yes. She knows he likes her. She reminds him a lot of himself. It was nothing romantic. More of a professional relationship right now.
