《What A Clown...》26] Special Guest
Advertisement
I had finished filling out the papers. Everything came out perfect. I even bumped into Wayne when I left.
"May the best one win..." I said and shook his hand. "Same to you..." He said as they called his name. "There is this party that Steven is having...you know...to promote because he is running too." He said and I raised my eyebrow at him and crossed my arms.
"Interesting...I thought he got arrested?" I said. "Well he bailed out and payed top dollar so it was never mentioned. And thats what the party is for...to make up those bad points." He said and I nodded.
"Would you like to go with me...It would be a pleasure." He said and I glanced at him. "I will think about it." I said. And of all people to come threw the door, Dent came in.
Bruce gave him a smile that hid the annoyance and hatred beneath. "Why Dent we were just talking about your party this Friday." I said shaking his hand.
"Oh good, I just came to sign up...I heard you two are also running." He said and we nodded. "Ill see you two on Friday okay." Bruce said and I waved bye as he left with a smile on his face.
"Miss V speaking of the party would you like to be my special guest?" He asked and I looked at him curiously. "Special guest?" I asked and he nodded.
"Of course, for your bravery in Bruce's party on holding of the Joker and how you told batman to help the civilian instead of yourself. It must be recognized." He said and I thought...perfect.
"I would be honored...Steven." I said with a small smile. "Would you also like to be my date? Now that would be a honor." He said and I gave half a smile.
"Mr. Wayne here already asked me and I haven't given him a solid answer First come first serve I guess...but I will think about it." I said.
"Thats fine ill see you on Friday." He said and walked away. I sighed and shook my head. This wouldn't be happening if I was a guy.
I walked down the stares and got my phone from my belt. I called the joker and it rang twice before he picked up.
"Hellloooo?" He sang as I listened to the faint wails in the background. "Are you busy? I just finished and It went by fine. Bruce and Steven both asked me out for a party, I haven't given them a answer." I said walking down the steps.
"Oh really...Well I just finished robbing a bank if your wondering what the sounds are about." He said as I reached the lobby. I passed the lobby desk and glanced at the T.V. "Well at least you are-" I stopped and back up.

I looked at the reporters filming the scene. You could see him clearly leaning against a light pole on the phone as they recorded live. "Wait your still at the scene!?! You idiot I can see you on the T.V! Why didn't you tell me you were busy?" I whispered yelled into the Phone.
"Im never busy for you doll, anyways the police wont be here for another 5 minutes." He said as I saw him look at the cameras and wave.
I slowly raised my hand and waved back but stopped. "You clown! You made me wave back! They think I'm crazy! Get out of there I was just here with Bruce." I said looking at the T.V again as I saw him laugh.
"Okay toots, don't worry jeez. Ill see ya at your house." He said and hung up waving bye at the camera as he jumped in to a van and drove off. Oh my god...
I walked out and got in my car. How does he think that he can talk to me so casually while. Ugh it annoys the hell out of me. I started driving towards my home a few miles away.
I slammed on the brakes nearly hitting a speeding van with a Bat Mobile racing behind it.
I caught my breath and nearly shot my phone when it rang. I put my gun back and kept on driving as I saw the van make a dramatic turn a block away.
"Hello?" I asked when I picked up the phone. "I saw I almost hit you there doll sorry about that." He said as I heard laughing and henchmen and bags being thrown around.
"Are you driving? Don't freaking call me when your on a chase with batman!" I said and I heard bomb on the end of the phone then in real life a few blocks way. "Joker are you okay?" I asked and then I heard a crazy laugh.
"Good your okay..." I muttered driving down the street. "Uhm doll...I don't think he is gonna be able to go to the party." He said as I put the pieces together. "You threw a bomb at him?" I said stopping at a red light.
"Ya wanna go check on him...I lost him so I'm guessing he is down." He said as the light went green. "But I'm on my way home and I passed you a few blocks...ago." I said when I saw the car crashed into a building in flames.
"I swear its like you two are playing Pac-Man." I said as I saw the car start leaking and a Bat Cycle race by. "He is on his bike, wanna know something about it? If the tires get tangled or the bike gets over heated it goes on full blast and then the steer looses control." I said.

"Interesting..." He said as the car exploded behind me. I rolled my eyes as I kept on driving. "You okay, Doll?" He asked and I chuckled as he let out a breath. "Yes babe Im fine, the BatMobile just exploded thanks to you I almost died." I said.
"I wasn't worried or anything" He said like a toddler. "Your too cute." I said and I heard him huff. "Ay shut it would ya! Im on the fucking Phone!" I heard him yell.
After a few minutes of yelling and two gun shots he spoke to me again."What was that doll?" He said as it finally went quiet around him.
"Hey don't go to my house right away." I said as I pulled up to my drive way. "Why?" He asked playfully. "Because I don't want BatMan to end up at my door step asking were the hell you are." I said.
"Im right here"
I slammed him against the wall and held him down with my arm with the other up high ready to strike. "What do you win on Trying to scare me?" I yelled pressing my arm more against him.
"Its just entertaining..." He said putting his hands on my waist and hesitantly pushing me off. "Do you like it when I nearly punch you and pin you to the wall or about to let all hell loose?" I asked hanging up the phone and taking out my keys.
"Maybe..." He said and I gave him a annoyed look. "Freaking Masochist..." I muttered under my breath And he chuckled to himself as I grabbed him by the collar and threw him threw the door then slammed it shut.
"Remember I have to be careful that reporters or someone doesn't see me with you. I don't mind when Im V but when Im Victoria...No." I said and he shrugged
He went over to my bar and got a bottle of Jack Daniels off the shelf and popped it open. "Yeah make your self at home." I said and he raised it up and drank from it.
"Ey don't drink all of it." I said snatching it from him. I took a swing from it and looked at him as he pouted a bit. "Fine go crazy." I said giving back and he smiled.
"I know you cant resist me Doll." He said as I rolled my eyes and went up stairs. I had to go finish some deals with guys that worked for me. I looked for my suits and couldn't find them.
"JOKER!" I yelled out and I heard a glass drop. "Shit...Yeah?"
"Were the hell are my suits?" I said stomping down the stairs. "Uh...I thought the ones you got were to uhh, plain...so I got you um...new ones." He said not having eye contact.
"What!?! No joker those suits are suppose to be plain so they dont have curves like normal clothes...I need to go talk with MY guys and they don't know I'm a girl..." I said starting to loose it.
"Don't worry doll...just wear one of the ones I got you...there in the room down here." He said and I gave him the most deadliest glare I could master and stomped away to the room.
I threw open the closet and looked threw the suits. They were all in different verities of red white and black. I chose the plainest one that I had and slipped in to it.
I walked out and winced at the small glance that I had of myself in the huge mirror in the hall. I stormed up to the joker as he set down a bottle of whiskey and choked at it then looked over at me.
"I am sooo gonna get you back." I growled at him grabbing his tie and pulling him off the counter and he smirked at me. He grabbed my face and cocked his head. "Take me then..." He said and we let go.
"Just wait...Were The hell is my mask?" I asked and I snapped my fingers. "Its in the car..." I said then felt my pockets. I moved joker out of the way and reached over the bar counter and looked threw the shelves.
"What are you looking for toots?" I heard him as I checked the other shelf. "My blade...the red one I gave you at the asylum." I said and checked the bottom shelf and let out a annoyed sigh. "Were the hell is it?" I said standing up and looking at joker.
"Why didn't you tell me you had it?" I said grabbing it and flipping it shut. "I have My reasons, sweets." He said and I grabbed my keys. I went to the back door and opened it.
"Get out Im leaving and Im not letting you stay here alone again." I said as he stepped out. "So your gonna tell Him yes, and even better you can wear one of your new suits to the party." He said and I walked over to my Black Camaro.
"Why a suit this time?" I asked unlocking the back door and reaching in to get my mask. "Uhh...cuz..." He said trailing off as I got my mask and closed the door. His attention changed back to me as I put a tie on.
"Cuz what?" I said opening the door and getting inside. "There more difficult to take off." He said smirking, closing my door and walking away. Huh?
Since when are suits harder to take off than dresses?Wait...oooohhh.

8 223I Totally Don't Have Anger Problems!
Discontinued 7/11/2020 Sorry if anyone was hoping for more updates. It seems I'm losing interest in the character as time goes on - not sure if that's due to miscalculated character development direction or just a limited amount to express in the first place. If I do any writing projects in the future, I'll make sure the premise has a lot of room for long-term, interesting, development before posting anything. Thanks to everyone who gave feedback! I’m Talia Shimada, and my life just got a lot more complicated. One moment I was just doing some regular investigation of an interesting boy from my senior year in high school, and then suddenly, everything went wrong and I was stranded in another world in the middle of nowhere. It’s not my fault he left a clear line of sight to his house keys where they could be photographed and replicated on a 3D printer! Now I’m stuck in the middle of a giant forest with all these annoying creatures that keep attacking me until I SMASH THEM INTO PIECES AND STOMP ON THEIR REMAINS, surviving off of raw meat and, well, other kinds of raw meat. What, am I supposed to know which plants are edible in some far-away wilderness on another PLANET!? This is a planet right? It has to be! What did I do to deserve this? At least that class I got is useful. Now, when something doesn’t do what it’s supposed to, I can keep smashing it until it CAN’T BE A PROBLEM ANY MORE BECAUSE IT’S NOT ABLE TO DO ANYTHING AT ALL! If anyone else tries to get in the way of my plans, I’ll just PICK UP THEIR PUNY BODIES AND THROW THEM ASIDE and watch them sail away, never to trouble me again, because I am DONE having people mess with my life and not being able to do anything about it! From now on, anyone who tries will get to briefly realize their error as I SMASH THEM INTO PASTE BECAUSE THEY PICKED A FIGHT WITH THE WRONG WOMAN! I totally don’t have anger problems! Updates Sundays and Wednesdays, occassionaly Fridays
