GOTHAM : LOVE AND INSANITY

CHAPTER 3

    The Maniax took us into an abandoned warehouse and tied us up in a room. They left us there for a couple of minutes and then we heard someone kick the door. It was Jerome. He slowly walked inside the room and with a joyful tone in his voice said " Oh , isn't this place lovely ladies! Hope we didn't leave you hanging! "he giggled . 

Diana: Why did you kidnap us, what do you want?

Jerome: Oh, isn't it obvious, we used you as a way to escape from those pigs! Besides, don't you like our company? Why so serious?

  He said as he faced me right in the eyes. I didn't answer.

Jerome: I said, why so serious, doll?

   He grabbed my throat and yelled:"ANSWER DAMN IT!" Then the goon grabbed Jerome by the shoulder and said: "Hey, boss leave her, she can't understand the joke". Jerome looked at him, "what do you know about jokes? you wouldn't know it even if it hit you right in the face". He grabbed his gun and shot the goon in the face.

Jerome: Now that that's out of the way, we are going to play a little game called find the password! You idiots, take their phones and find their contacts. We need to know if they have direct communication with the GCPD or Jimbo.

   So they took our phones and looked at them one by one. When they were about to search my phone, at first I refused to tell them the password, but I had to spill it out eventually. I didn't have a choice, they threatened to kill us. The goon who was scrolling through my contacts started yelling. "Boss, boss! Come see this!" .He passed the phone to Jerome and with a surprised look on his face he said:" JACKPOT, JACKPOT!! Oh my God, that's rich!! Oh I could kiss someone right now !

   He started laughing hysterically and he whispered something to one of his goons. He immediately untied me from my chair and took me to another room. I was frightened but I wouldn't let them know it. Besides I had to concentrate and try to find a way out of this place . As I was sitting in there all by myself , I was reflecting on poor life choices . Then I remembered that I had a little knife in the pocket of my jeans. So I rolled over and because the hands were tied in the front and not in my back I could easily use it to cut out the ropes from my hand and my feet. I was free. Now I had to get out of here .

     I saw that  the room had a window that I could fit in. This was my way out. While I was climbing to reach it, I heard a loud noise coming from the door. Jerome came back. "oh girlie , you're funny". He run and grabbed my legs. I tried to kick him but I couldn't see clearly. So he got the better of me and through me to the ground. He approached me , "now , let's talk , shall we?".
