Crazy? Don't think I am. (Gotham X OC)

9 - Idiots. Plain. Stupid. Idiots.

I woke up to the sound of soft knocking on my door. "Kira, it's me Theo. When you've got changed and ready, please come to the dining room to have breakfast." He kind of talked through the door. I got up from the bed and went to have another shower. I put on a pair of skinny black leather pants, a white slim fit button up top and a vibrant purple blazer. I accompanied the get up with a pair of purple heeled combats and a black top hat. With this, I wore my hair down and did a black smokey eye and red lip for the make up. I looked a bit like Jester but not being crazy, but I had the showman ship I always was accustomed to by her. I walked out of my bedroom, my dagger hidden in my left boot and my pistol in the right one, and locked the door.

Walking into the dining room I noticed Theo was there talking to the boys. Of course, Jerome had his back towards me but it mainly looked like the Maniax were paying attention to Theo to notice me. He was supposedly talking about stagecraft and was wanting the others to say 'Good evening Ladies and Gentlemen' as if they were putting on a show. I heard Greenwood do his then I saw Theo look at Aaron and then saw a look of discomfort in his face. "Jerome .." Theo had said, noticing me at the same time. Jerome got up on his chair and before saying anything I stepped in. "Ladies and Gentlemen," I said in a low voice, my head was tilted as I was tilting my hat forward and I was crossing my legs, "Good evening!" I exclaimed, I lifted my head and let go of the hat. My arms were spread as wide as they could and I put on an evil and sinister grin. I took this time to look at their faces. They were all there with their mouths open like fly traps, except Theo. His face showed that of admiration and wonder. I also noticed Jerome was still standing on his chair, looking a bit pissed. I laughed at this. "Great way to enter a room! Great element of surprise, great stage presence and that laugh! I love it!" Theo concluded. "It's always nice to be appreciated Theo. Thanks!" I waltzed up to where Jerome was still standing on the chair. "Can I do mine now?" He asked Theo as he nodded. "Go on then, bet it won't be as good as mine!" I joked under my breath. "Ladies and gentle men," he performed, arms wide, "Gooood evening!" He finished with his voice lowering at the end. "Well done Jerome, boyishly charming," Theo said as Jerome sat down and giggled, "And that laugh!" I rolled my eyes. I stood behind Jerome and rested my elbows on his shoulders which were covered in a red silk dressing gown, whilst my head rested on his ginger locks of hair.

After Jerome poured me a cup of milky coffee, which I had missed so badly, I heard screaming. I knew it was a male and saw that it was Mayor James. Good for him he was getting whipped by Barbs and Tabby. I tapped Jerome on the shoulder and motioned him to come with me. When we were alone outside the room, he pulled me close to him. "You look beautiful and that element of surprise was amazing." He whispered. "Thanks J." I pulled him into a kiss until someone cleared their throat. "Go into the dining room kids, there's some toys for you to test out." Theo talked to us like we were children and I kind of hated it. I looked at him and then looked at Jerome, who was still close to me, before kissing his nose and dragging him off back into the room.

I noticed that Dobkins was on the floor, messing with a pistol, and I didn't even know what Aaron was doing. Greenwood was chilling with the guards, tormenting them and playing on their nerves. Jerome let go of my hand and ran over to the box. I went and sat on one of the chairs that accompanied the table near the box. "Ooo Shiny!" Jerome exclaimed. He picked up a samurai sword by its casing and was going to reach for the handle but Greenwood had beaten him. "Give that back." Jerome growled in a low voice.

"I saw it first." Greenwood snapped back, playing around with the sword. "You're samurai skills are excellent Greenwood-san," Jerome started, "but they are noting compared to me!" He bent down and picked up a chainsaw. This was suddenly getting exciting but I knew that Galavan had a meeting so I had to be the responsible one here. "Prepare to die!" Jerome shouted before heading towards Greenwood. I raised my voice whilst walking over to the two. "That's enough you two!" I shouted over the top of the noise. Jerome had stopped the chain saw and dropped it. "Boy's we are a team, we don't fight amongst ourselves." I went on, Dobkins mumbling something behind me. "And I'm the captain." Greenwood proclaimed. He wasn't really and I could see the anger in Jerome's eyes. "Captain of my foot." Jerome replied sassily. "I've murdered a dozen women, terrorized the city. What have you done?" Greenwood started. "Chop up your mommy?" He said sarcastically. Jerome did not like this. Not. One. Bit. "Everybody has to start somewhere," Jerome growled, "See I have a vision and ambition and brains. You're just a nutty old cannibal. How many people can you eat before that shtick gets old?" Jerome asked, arms spread wider that his smile. Greenwood eyed me up. "I could eat one more." He replied, licking his lips. Jerome looked really pissed off now.

"I can see that we are going to have to resolve this once and for all." I started, a hint of anger and happiness mixed in my voice as I was hopefully going to see someone's brains splattered all over the wall. I got my pistol out of my boot pocket. I emptied the barrel and placed back only one bullet. "You know this game don't you? It's my favourite game!" I said excitedly. Jerome looked over to me, lust in his eyes. "Mmm, Love it!" He said. "Who wants to be the boss?" I asked handing my gun to Greenwood. The gun clicked when the trigger was pulled. The gun was then handed over to Jerome. It was chilling to see him like this but it was supposedly to also intimidate Greenwood.

"Hey Greenwood," he started pointing the gun to his forehead "What's the secret to good comedy?" "Is he going for mi -- I mean OUR lines Kira?!" Jester appeared beside him and looked at me, her eyebrow raised. She wanted me to do something about it. I was brought out of my thoughts by the noise of my gun clicking. "Timing," Jerome said with little to no expression in his voice, "And what's courage?" I could tell that Jester was getting slightly angrier by the second, due to her facial features. The gun clicked. "Grace under pressure." He answered the question with a smile. Jester put her hands on her hips and fake yawned, wanting me to do something. I was totally focused on her until the gun clicked again. "I'm the boss." He chuckled very sinisterly.

He pushed the gun towards Greenwoods chest and I took it off of him. I kissed him on the cheek. "Yes you are Jerome. Greenwood hand him the katana." He refused. I looked him dead in the eye. I reached down and pulled out the dagger that Jerome got me. I put it towards his throat, or where his throat is supposed to be. "Give it back, now." I demanded. I looked over to Jerome and nodded, motioning for him to take the sword. He grabbed it from Greenwoods grasp and slashed it around everywhere, acting like a beautiful but crazy dumbass. "Next time, you won't see the sun. Especially when you're 6 feet under." I growled at him. He didn't look scared and he laughed it off.

I went back over to the table and sat in one of the chairs. "Talking about laughing, we're missing something." Jester appeared next to me. She was right. My laughing gas! I needed it, both concoction's. I couldn't leave the apartment, but I knew where I was and my old home was just a few streets away. I looked up to see that Jerome was tormenting the guards with the katana until Theo walked in and walked over to me.

"Hey Theo, can I visit my old home? I need to grab a few things." I asked him when he approached me. He had a questioning look on his face and reached for something inside his pocket. He pulled out a golden key with a red J encrusted into it.

"Go and find a room with the number '6' on the front and have a peek inside. You might want to be quiet when you open the door though and it has to be a secret. Don't tell anyone about it." I nodded, but then a question came into my mind. "Can I show Jerome? I think he would like the whole concept of contagious laughter!" I whisper asked him. He thought about it then nodded. Following his orders, I walked down the hallway, past my room and the others and found the door. Jester was right beside me. "6, huh? It may have been Sionis' room that they conv --, oops! Can't tell ya kiddo!" She chuckled. I rolled my eyes. I unlocked the door and ---
