After I left Gotham some things ...chnaged. The anger never left me neither did the urge to kill. I found myself murdering people in Central City and then realizing what I had done. Crash thinks I have a split personality, that whatever had happened to me when I killed my dad had switched my personalities into two.

I personally think he is retarded.

There is nothing wrong with me, I am fine.  I scared half of the people in Gotham and ran off my ex-booyfriend, I am so pleased with myself.

I groaned and put my head in my hands. I sat on my throne with my legs hung over the side listening to the guys talk. Maybe I should see a psychiatrist? I thought as the doors opened to my home/bar and Sofia Falcone walked in smiling at me, she stopped in fornt of the throne.

"Morning NEssita" she said and walked up to me "You look awfully comfortable."

"Sofia" I acknowledged as she sat on the steps of the stage and placed her purse beside her, she looked out at my goons.

"I seen how you and Cobblepot fought yesterday. It amazed me you let him slap you like he did" she said and laughed "If that had been Zsasz you would have knocked him down and made him stay down."

Exaclty, he isn't Zsasz. He was the first guy I ever loved, I thought and smiled "Cobblepot was my boyfriend. I let him get one slap in, it didn't hurt" I lied, my cheek still stung and my heart still hurt.

I wish I hadn't of told him what I did.

She tsked "Was? I cannot believe you actually dated anyone" she said and looked up at me "So, are you the Queen now?"

Did she really just ask that? "Um, no. Cobblepot probably still is" i said an dpicked at a loose string on my jeans before swinging my legs up and over the arm and sat up straight.

She was lost in thought "Do you want to be? Do you want to be the Queen of Gotham? Imagine it if both of us ruled Gotham side by side, two of the baddest bitches, duaghters of Falcone and MAroni-" NIECE! "- unstoppable. Just like them."

I hated to admit she actually had a point. If Sal and Carmine could do it why couldn't we? We were in the bloodline of two of the biggest, badassed men in Gotham. But, do I actually want to be?

"I have no desire to be a Queen of Gotham" I said and leaned back into my chair "I'm ...actually kind of tired of it. I was a boss in Star City, I got my ass kicked by a vigilante."

She smiled "Nessita, I ahve seen you through the years. How you act, how smart you are and how you ran things for MAroni. You are gifted at this" she said and stood up, she got a piece of paper out of her purse and handed it to me, I took it slowly and eyed her as I took it form her "Change your mind give me a call. We can take down Cobblepot easily."

With that, she walked away.

I unfolded the paper and seen a number on it, I put it in my pocket and made a face "Yeah, I trust OSwald more than I do you" I mumbled and stood up on my feet. I hated the taste of crow but it lookslike I am about to eat it, I thought as I walked out the door.

-----------------------------

He needed to know.

I stood in front of the Iceburg Lounge. I closed my eyes and walked up into the club, the door closed behind me and I seen nobody else was here. I took a breath and walked around the bar as I looked around I noticed a door open to a office, I walked towards it and peeked in to see Cobblepot in there.

He was asleep on his desk, I almost laughed at how his mouth was open and he was snoring.

I walked forward and sat down in a chair in fornt of the desk, I placed my feet up onto it and laid my arms out on the chair arms.

"Oswald."

"Oswald" I said more loudly and groaned as he slept "PEnguin!" I slappe dmy hand down on the desk and he jerked up in surprise, his eyes were wide as he looked at me.

"Nessita-?" he stopped and rubbed his eyes "Am I dreaming?"

I shook my head "Nope. I know what Is aid but, I need to warn you" I said as I looked at him "Sofia Falcone has something planned, Oswald. And I think it involves you."

He just stared at me "Sofia Falcone. How do you figure this" he asked and leaned back into his chair "Did she tell you while you were both getting your nails done? Or having a conversation over dinner?"

It was my turn to stare at him "I understand hating me at the moment. But, I just came here to tell you something I thought you should know. If you don't believe me than fine" I said standing up, i shook my head "LAter Cobblepot."

I was leaving when he caught my arm and turned me around. I looked up at him as he stared at me "NEssita, I believe you. And ...i still believe you care for me" he whispered and moved hair out of my face.

"I always will. I ...I just don't trust myself around anyone."

He moved his head down and i turned my head just in time so he would catch my cheek and not my lips, he pulled back and gave a bitter smile "I should've seen that coming" he said as I pulled away from him and headed towards the door.

"Remember to watch your back around her, Cobblepot. She is a Falcone after all."

And I plan on finding out what she has planned, I thought as I left the building. I opened my phone and typed in the number, I pressed send on my flip phone.

"Hello?"

"Yeah, it's Nessita ...I think I ...think I might take you up on that offer."
