"Ill be gone for a while but don't worry..." I said and he chuckled and leaned in on the table. "Now why would I worry?..." He said and I sighed. "You wont hear of me for a few weeks or so because I have to go out on Saturday after work." I said and he leaned back and raised a eyebrow at me.

"Oh yeah? What are ya gonna uh...Do?" He said and I shook my head. "Sorry But I Promised not to say anything about it...just don't mess my stuff up and Ill bring you guys a uh...Gift." I said and he laughed.

"You and your gifts...so how has the uh Bomb thing been?" He asked and I sighed again. "Well this Criminal Clown Master Mind implanted bombs over the city but he only remembers 3 of them..." I said and he smirked at me.

"Tell me more of this amazing master mind you speak of..." He said and I laughed. "Okay so uh...Ill see you in a week or so...It might take some time though..." I said standing up

<><><>

"It was hard but I got him to admit it a bit. He started talking to me then I started telling him that these guys were trying to imitate him by putting bombs in the street. He then laughed and said That he would put it in a hospital or a shelter." I told Gordon.

"That actually worked? Oh my blessing God..." He muttered as we waited for the scans. A cop came bursting in and we both looked at him.

"Mayor was right...we detected low radiation from the hospital...it was very low but still high enough to be a bomb. We cant locate it we just evacuated." He said and I Turned to him.

"What about the shelters?...and you should check the courtrooms too. If I was him I would put it in what seemed the safest places." I said and the cop nodded. "Yes Miss V" he said and left.

"I cant believe this...you actually got something out of the Joker...How...How?" He said awestruck by my accomplishment. "You guys need to think like him...but you guys cant...I can think like a criminal and thats very useful. Same thing with the Joker...he thinks like batman a good guy a cop...and thats how he gets in there minds and makes them admit things they don't want to." I said and he smiled.

"I am just so glad you are on our side...at least the odds are evened out now. It would be horrible...just horrible if we had two master minds like you and joker against us." He said and I smirked at him.

"Yeah...wouldn't that be just Horrific."

(Bruce'sPOV)

"Freaking hell...you have a mean shot V..." I said as She smiled and blew at the guns barrel as She handed the gun to Me . "I never miss Bruce...Never." She said and I raised a eyebrow at her.

"Oh really?...you see that beer can on that roof....shoot it." I said handing her back the gun. "Are you kidding me?" She said giving me back the gun and popping the trunk of her car open.

"What you cant do it?" I taunted as She laughed and took out a riffle. "Yes I can do it...but not with that gun...that one is to weak."

She set the gun on her shoulder and aimed it at the beer can almost a block away. She waited a few seconds then pulled the trigger and held on to the gun as the sound of the gun echoed in my head.

We saw the beer can disappear from where it was and She got the gun and rested it on her hip. "Ha...In your face, Batman..." She said and smirked at me as I smiled and ran my hand threw my hair.

"Damn..." I muttered looking at the gun then trailing up to her face. "Well thanks for having me over it was fun...eh. Maybe next time we could go rob a bank or something." She said throwing the riffle in the trunk.

"V..." I started as I crossed my arms and narrowed my eyes at her. "I know I know...Bwuce Wayne is a good bwoy isnt he?" She said in a baby voice as She held my face and kissed my head.

Why cant those lips be somewhere else...

She let me go and closed the Trunk. A evening ice bath it is...Why the hell is she with that stupid Joker. That idiot will only get her hurt or even worse. Shes just so damn beautiful and smart and clever and funny, I want her with me...I don't want her with him...

"Uh...Bruce?...Hello? Uh...Ill see you uh...later." She said as she snapped me out of my thoughts. I walked over to her car and leaned on the edge of the window.

"You sure you don't want to stay?" I asked as she put her seat belt on. "No...I need to take care of business...and my dogs. Bye Bruce." She said as I sighed and leaned off the car crossing my arms. "Okay Bye...cant wait till next time." I said and she smiled as the window rolled up.

"Im about to leave my office right now...I just need a few things." V said and I smiled. "Okay ill call you later...Im kind of busy." I said and she sighed. "Yeah your busy...bye."

She hung up and I sighed as I reached the edge of the building and jumped to the next one.

I landed on top off the building and looked around. I know he is here....I heard him laughing.

I spotted him at the edge of the building looking over the city. I walked slowly behind him and he laughed again. "Do ya know what Time it is?...The last bomb is somewhere out there...Im so excited to see were the fucking hell I put it." He said and I stopped.

"Why do you keep on doing this Joker?" I growled and he turned to me in his bloody Asylum jump suit. He smiled at me with that haunting bloody grin and sighed.

"Well ya see Batsy...I just want to watch The world Burn." He sang and laughed as the sky turned a sudden orange and a loud booming noise was heard.

We both looked over as Part of City Hall burst and the flames started burning. I clenched up my fist in anger as his laugh died down. I went and tackled him down swinging and punching him as he just laughed even more and then I put my hands around his collar and lifted him up a bit.

A weird look came over his face as his laughs died down and he looked over at the building. He started chuckling and laughing again...but it was...different.

"WHAT THE HELL IS SO DAMN FUNNY!" I yelled at him throwing him against the wall and yelling at him. He held his side as he sat up wincing and looked up at me as I shook with anger.

"Do ya uhm...Know were Miss V is?" He said and I stormed up to him . "What about her she is-" I started and stopped as realization took over me. I saw City Hall collapse and flames devour it.

"Im about to leave my office right now...I just need a few things"

Anger built up in me as he chuckled softly to himself and I turned to him. "You Killed her! I knew this would happen I knew it!" I yelled at him and kicked him as he just laughed.

"Well it was uh...nice playing with ya Batsy but uh...I got problems of my own to deal with right now." He said and opened up his fist and blew something at me.

"Master Bruce are you okay? Do you need anything?" I heard alfred say and I rubbed my eyes and looked at him. "What the hell happened?"

<><><>

(Joker'sPOV)

She is dead?

What the hell had I thought on putting the bomb there?...Wait. Damn it...that was a old bomb from before she was Mayor. Oh great no more V no more of her. Hehehe....what the fuck am I going to do without my Victory? HAHAHAHA

I started laughing as I looked at the news. I couldn't have been that stupid again...First Jeannie and now her? What the hell is wrong with me? Am I cursed? Haha I must be.

Oh I'm gonna miss those big silver eyes and that hair as dark as my thoughts.

I laughed again. My laughter had never been so crazy before. It was hopeless now she was dead. My head started hurting as I gripped at my hair and let the laughs out.

I squeezed my eyes shut not wanting to let anything out. I walked over to the wall and punched it making a huge hole in it. I looked at my bloody knuckles and went to the bar and opened a bottle and drank from it. Drowning my new regret away like the old one.

She is dead...HAHAHA...and its all MY FUCKING FAULT!

I turned and threw the bottle at the bar hitting a shelf and making them all break down. I reached over and took a glass and drank from it.

I winced and held my mouth as I saw I was bleeding from it now. The edge of the glass was sharp and I looked at the mirror and I

At my bloody grin as I held my hair and pulled at it.

This is all your fault. HAHAHAHA. I looked at myself in the mirror and threw the glass at it breaking it as the pieces fell to the floor. And I just laughed as My eyes burned.

SHE IS GONE...HAHA...The little sanest part of my insanity just died. And its all because of me...just like last time WHY WHY WHY! HAHAHAHAHAHA. My Young Beauty Is Dead.HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I was laughing...I wanted to die of laughter...I wanted to be with My Victory the only thing that made me feel sane enough and good about my self.

I lost My Young Beauty once before...and I don't like it this time either.

I laughed to hard...my sides hurt and my throat was dry but I laughed. I felt tear fall out and I lost it. Like If The Joker was reborn...a new form of crimes and terrorizing thoughts with it. I went to a car and got my guns and drove into town still laughing and running over a few people on the way.

Pulling down my window and shooting at everything. As the people fell down and I struggled to stay on the road as I drove threw the night. Laughing smiling as I told her once and she told me many years before.

I need a good reason to laugh...I wanna laugh as this city burns to the ground and dance in the ashes like My Young Beauty said. I don't want to laugh because its hard to overcome her death. I will laugh because I will finish the deal and make this city Burn...haha...I promised her I would never laugh about her...no. Hehehe

Not My Young Beauty.
