The office was empty and it was 9 o'clock. I still had 1hour left. Yes, I had went a bit over 2 hours, but that's because I wanted to please Lucius. An email popped up in the corner. From Bruce Wayne.

Dear Miss Beethay.

I am Lucius' boss, well, he works for me and I have noticed your top quality work. You have completed everything by the deadline and as he says.

Everything that you do is given to Lucius, who then sorts it out to give to me. Lucius goes to my meetings, calls people and does my business trips too. He already has too much to do, but you make his job easier by sorting things. 

I thank you dearly and hope you ever stop working like this. You even put extra time into everything. I am upgrading you to your own private office close to Lucius and you will move in tomorrow. Hat way your perfect work won't be disrupted. 

I hope you accept my thanks,

Bruce Wayne.

CEO WAYNE ENTERPRISES 


Oh my god. Bruce Wayne had gone out of his way to write an email to me congratulations me on my hard work. I have now got my own office!

I know Bruce Wayne normally leaves the building around now, so I go to the glass leading outside and I see him walking to his pearl grey Lamborghini. I feel so happy!

I sit and finish everything I need to do. The news is on. We have a small TV in he office which is meant only for breaks, but some people just watch it constantly. But guess what's on? Batman chasing the joker. Again.

Some people love watching these, but now it's always the same. Batman wins, no one does. He doesn't catch the joker, because the joker gets away. Some people die because the joker killed them. But this time I actually watch. The joker is stood on a building. Not any building. The building I'm sat in. There is helicopters shining lights into the building. On the news there is commentating. 

"The joker see to be stood on top a building, the Wayne tower, and has a switch in his hand. If he were to blow up this building, it would mean a great loss for Bruce Wayne, but no loss of lives as the building is empty. People are warned to stay away from Wayne tower." The commentator said. 

No one's in the tower? I'm in the tower? I run to the window and start screaming. "HELLO!! ROCHELLE BEETHAY IS IN THE TOWER. HELLOOOOO?" I sit down watching out. I look at the news. The batman is in 'The bat' a flying vehicle which is pointing at the joker. Batman gets out of it and points a taser at the joker. Batman is too far to reach him. He fired the tase and it misses. The joker is holding the switch high in the air. 

He shouts. "That all you got? Little Bat?" The joker skips and jumps into the building next tower he holds the switch high. "DO YOU REALLY WANT ME TO DO THIS?" Says joker. I watch the screen, with sweat dripping on my forehead. 

The joker presses the button.
