Like Never Before (A Joker Fan Fic)

Part 2 Willingly Stolen

Monday morning, Gwen, Kat, Harry, and Jessie were walking to school. Kat and Jessie were holding hands and giggling. Gwen was texting Joker. "Who are you texting?" Harry asked trying to look over Gwen's shoulder. She pushed him away, "Your dog!" she said giggling. "Fine!" Harry said cracking up.

  They got to school and all split up to their classes. Today was a B day so Gwen had Science, Kat had English, "Jessie had History, and Harry had Math. "Bye guys!" Gwen said running to her class and shoving her phone in the pocket of her checkerboard skinny jeans.

  In science, Gwen kept feeling her phone buzz in her pocket. "Come on Joker don't you have something else to do?!" she thought to herself. "But I love you!" she whispered to herself. When her teacher was walking around checking that everyone did their homework, the voice on the loud speaker said, "Attention all staff and students this is a lock down. This is not a dr-" she is cut of by screams of pain then a loud thud. "Umm...could Gwen MacReedy please come to the front office?" the man says followed by insane laughter. Everyone looks at Gwen. "Come on!" she says angrily. "You're not going anywhere! Get down!" the teacher yells. "I know!" Gwen thinks to herself getting under a desk. The Joker walks around the school looking for Gwen. He goes in one of the classes on the top floor of the building. "Have any of you seen Gwen?" he asks leaning against the door impatiently."Hey buddy, that's my sister!" a strong looking, tall boy says getting up. "Really," The Joker says having to look up at him. "Then can you direct me to her class?". "No!" he says pushing him back. "If you touch her you die!". "I don't think a little boy like you could hurt me!" Joker says laughing and running out the door.

  After about ten minutes of searching and avoiding Gwen's older brother, he finally finds her classroom. "Ahh! Finally! I found you!". "What are you doing at my school?" Gwen says getting up. "Oh,  just wanted to see you!". "Really?". "And...." The Joker picks her up and puts her over his shoulder. "What are you doing put me down!" Gwen screams, but in her mind she doesn't want him to. "Sorry, it's just I want to talk to you and this is the only way I can!" he says running out of the school and to his car, which is a black Corvette with tinted black windows. He puts her in the passengers seat and locks the door then runs around to the other side and starts driving at full speed out of the parking lot. "What are you doing and where are you taking me?" she asks breathing heavily. "Home, well to my home, if you can call it a home." he says with a chuckle. "Ugh...fine. You said you wanted to talk to me?". "Yes, umm....I wanted to ask you something for one of my friends.". "Ask away.". "Ok, so he likes this girl. He is not sure if he likes her back and he sorta knows this girl that is very dangerous who thinks she is his girlfriend but he didn't really like her in that way but she lives with him. And the girl he likes is also like really beautiful." he says looking straight at the road. "Umm...well your friend should just tell her how he feels and confront the other girl and tell her that their relationship is strictly friendship and business or whatever their interactions are." Gwen says sitting up. "Ok then, I have to tell you something." he says nervously. "Sure, anything.". "Well, ever since I looked into your weird different colored eyes that night, I could not stop thinking about you and every time I do think about you, I feel like I'm gonna throw up. I've never felt this feeling before but I kinda like it." he says. "Oh my God, are you serious? I've felt that way about you for like a year!" Gwen says excitedly. "Really? Oh my God! I think I'm having asthma attack!" he says breathing really short heavy breaths. "Do you have an inhaler!?". "Y-es." he pulls one out of his jacket pocket and breaths into it almost swerving off the road. "I though you were gonna die!". "I'm not gonna die on you, I promise!" he says smiling. "Good!"

  He pulls up to a warehouse looking thingy. "Here we are! Just one more thing, Catwoman, Riddler, Scarecrow, Harely, Bane, and Poison Ivy kinda sorta live with me so...just brace yourself." he says. "Ok..." Gwen replies getting out of the car. He unlocks the door and walks inside. The warehouse actually looks nice inside. There is a big kitchen, like three couches, a flat screen tv, a Play Station 4 and lots of games. Off to the side there is a big table with a blue hologram screen in the middle of it. To the other side, there are bags of money and a really big diamond. "Wow..." Gwen says as he closes the door. Everyone in playing pool by the living room. They turn their heads when they hear the door close. Harely runs up to kiss The Joker but he pushes her away. "See what I mean?" he whispers into Gwen's ear. The Riddler and Scarecrow come up to him. "Where were you?" Scarecrow says. "And you left us with her? You know how annoying she is!" The Riddler whispers pointing to Harley. "Sorry guys but I had to find Gwen. Remember what I told you last night?" ha says. "Oh!" Scarecrow says taking his mask off and running his fingers through his spiky brown hair. "Wait, Jonathan Craine?" Gwen asks, "Your Scarecrow?". "Yes my darling, I am." he says smiling a crooked smile and going back to the pool table. "Can you go with Eddie here while I go umm...you know..." The Joker says quietly to Gwen. "Ya." she says going with The Riddler. The Joker turns to Harley, grads her arm and pulls her down the hallway to his room. She hugs him. "Oh Mista J! I missed you! Don't be gone so long next time will ya? And what's up with that girl?" she says wrapping her arms around him. He pulls away, "That's what I was gonna talk to you about. Umm...your a great girl but.....I'm in love with Gwen. Not you, I'm sorry but....". "B-it but why!? Look at me then look at her. I'm irresistible!" Harely says crossing her arms. "But, I just really like her. You are wonderful but can't we be friends?". "No! I don't wanna be just friends! You are The Joker and you need a Harely Quinn! Not a weird girl with a bunch of piercings!" she screams at him. "Harely calm down!" he screams back. "Fine! I'm going out!" she yells pushing past him and and storming out the front door. The Joker walks back into the room. "What's with her?" Ivy asks. "She's just mad at me." he says. "Oh." she replies. "Lets discuss business" Jonathan suggests. "Sure." they all sit down at the large table with the hologram in the middle. Gwen sits right next to Joker where Harely would have if she was there. "So, any plans?" Joker asks everyone. "Well we have already robbed the bank like 8 Times and stole the most valuable diamond in Gotham so I'm out of ideas." Bane says leaning back in his chair. "We could randomly release inmates from Arkam or Black Gate..." Ivy suggests. "That's a great idea!" Bane says. "Ok, so what would our exact plan be?" Joker asks. "Well, it would be to infiltrate Arkam or Black Gate releasing the most dangerous inmates into the streets of Gotham." The Riddler explains. "I would go with Black Gate, it seems to have stronger, more dangerous criminals. "Jonathan says. "Umm..excuse me, would I be able to help with that?" Gwen asks softly. "I wouldn't want you to get hurt." Joker says. "I wouldn't want you to get hurt either but this sounds really exciting!" she says. "Well fine." He replies. "Well if you are going to help, do you have any talents?" Ivy asks. "Well, I can skateboard and throw knives." Gwen says confidently. "What!? You can throw knives?! That is so frekin awsome!" Joker says. "Wow, and you can call me Pam." Ivy says. "Ok." Gwen replies. "Call me Eddie." The Riddler says. "And you can call me John." Scarecrow says.

  A few hours later Gwen comes up to the Joker from talking to Pam and Bane. "Umm..." she taps his shoulder. "Ya, what's up.". "I think I have to go home.". "Aww. Why?". "Because my family probably thinks I'm dead.". "True, but will you come back?". "Of course but, on the weekends and if you wanna meet my parents-" "I'm good, I already met your older brother...". "Oh, River, he's harmless!". "Really?! He is like six feet tall!". "He is just really protective and don't worry, he is all words no action.". "Fine. I'll meet then, But not as The Joker, as me.". "What do you mean?". "Well...umm....I'll tell you when we're alone.". They walk to the car and drive away. "Ok, so what I said earlier, I'm not The Joker all the time. I'm actually Marley.". " What the what what?!". "Yep, that's my real name and I can walk around Gotham with nobody noticing me if I just wear regular boring clothes and no makeup.". "But your hair is green and the...umm.....". "You can't tell that the scars are there when I have makeup on and I have lots of imitators trust me, so does Bats.". "Oh nice." A few minutes later they pull up in front of Gwen's house. "Aww...bye Gwen.". "One more question, do you really like me?". "Gwen yes, you much yes, so much yes! You are beautiful and funny and I really do like you!" he says lifting up her chin with his finger. "Aww..." she hugged him. "Wait, before you go I have something for you." Marley says pulling a red box out of his pocket. "Are you proposing to me?" Gwen asks. "If you want me to but no, its just this." He opens the boxes reveling a small necklace with a tiny, silver heart charm. "Aww, its so pretty. I love it!" Gwen puts I on and hugs Marley. " Im never taking it off!" she screams. "Well, bye." he says playing with his seat belt. "Bye Marley and by the way, I like you to." she said getting out of the car. He watched her walk up to the house then drove off.
