Silent but Crazy || Jerome Valeska fanfic ||

Chapter Two

"Hey, doll." Luca looked up slowly to face the man who was bothering her. She didn't appreciate it. " I like the mask." It still shocked the young adult how James Gordon managed to allow the mask. it was her only request and he accepted that however instead of her majestic (in her opinion) clown mask, it was plain and white, and when the guards had given her a pen to write out some forms she quickly drew a black tear under the left eye. She went back to staring at the wall, uninterested. The man grabbed her arm and she pounced on him, ripping at his face with her long claws, carving a faint smile into his face. She would be screaming in anger if she could make sound. 

It was one flaw she had made into her weapon. She was silent, she was like a ghost and it was perfect for her career choice. She hopped off of the man once she could tell he wasn't breathing and went back to staring at the wall. It wasn't like her to suddenly attack but she was on edge. Who wouldn't be? She had been in there for two months and while she might have been a little insane (maybe a lot insane) but she didn't belong with those animals. She killed with grace, people feared her for it, but these morons were messy and egotistical. She was still proud of the hospital incident. It was planned so perfectly, she could just imagine the police when they actually found bodies that weren't burnt, they would be smiling up at them just as she used to smile at her parents. She could feel someone staring at her and she turned. She almost wished she hadn't. A boy around her age sat with a few familiar faces and was grinning right at her. 

It was the new kid. She had heard many rumors and they were honestly pissing her off, he only killed his mother, sure, he was a psycho but she didn't see the appeal. She continued to stare at him and his grin just got wider and wider. Soon she turned away again and looked at the wall.

"Hey, Greenwood?" He looked up and hummed a yes. "Who's she?" He asked, his head tilting. "Luca Johnson." Sionis interrupted. Greenwood glared but listened to the conversation. Jerome thought and shrugged. "Haven't heard of her." Sionis smirked. "Some know her better as Smiley. She got caught while blowing up a hospital, all 800 patients died." This perked his interest, as Jerome grinned. "So a valuable asset." Greenwood shrugged. "Well, be my guest, we all saw what happened when he," He pointed at the dead, smiling man "touched her."

Luca was getting agitated at all the attention. She turned to face the young ginger boy that was staring at her before. He propped his elbow up and rested his face, grinning at her. "Hiya gorgeous. I'm Jerome." She stared and he shrugged. "Just being polite." He gritted through his teeth. She continued to stare, she knew why he was here. Friendship. She had never had a friend before... However, she found if wanted to be left alone she should stick with him. His grin grew as she stuck out her hand. He took it and pulled her closer. "I'm guessing you can't speak?" Luca nodded and he laughed. "Well, this'll work fine! I do a lot of talking doll." He stood up and pulled her to her feet, leading her over to the shocked group. "Everyone! Meet our new friend!" She stood there staring at them all until Jerome sat down and she took a seat next to him.
