Jack's P.O.V:

She turned and stalked out of the room. I sighed, my wrist throbbing. I stood up and left the room after about 5 minutes. I moped around the halls. I could have had her. She could be in my room still and we could be talking. Then we would be friends. But she hates me. She doesn't want anything to do with me. I stopped at my locker. I opened it and took out a syringe. I put it in my jacket pocket. Just in case. I shut my locker and leaned against it. Then my head snapped up. Hey! There's no more gas! It's all gone! I looked around. Nothing!

I smiled. Then I ran down the hall, searching for her.

What was I doing? Just because there's no more gas doesn't mean she'll magically want to speak to me. But hey... I'm desperate.

I finally found her. She was opening the cafeteria door. I tackled her and dragged her into the janitors closet near by.

"aah! HEY! LEMME GO!" She screeched.

"Quiet! I'm doing you a favor!!"

"JACK! LEMME GO RIGHT NOW BEFORE I BEAT YA UP AGAIN!"

"Listen! There's no more gas! Everyone will be awake and we'll again because Jokers gas failed to do what it was supposed to. Everyone will be angry. And everyone will want revenge."

She looked confused. Then gasped. "They'll want revenge on my Puddin!" She scrambled to the door but I grabbed her by the waist and threw her back into the mops. She landed with a thud and a squeak of surprise.

"Not just Joker. They'll want revenge on you. And the Riddler. Even Scarecrow. Listen to me. You go out now, your a goner. I'm only trying to help."

For once she looked thoughtful. Then smiled sadly.

"I guess your right.... but I need ta help Mistah J."

I shook my head. "I won't let you risk yourself for that clown. Your life is worth 10 of his."

She looked shocked for a moment. Then angry. "Let me go! My Puddin needs me and you can't stop me from helping him!"

I sighed. Then grabbed a broom and her upside the head with it. "Oops" I said innocently as the wooden part struck her head and she collapsed on the floor, unconscious.
