《The Joker's Daughter》My First Mission
Advertisement
Arika's Pov
It's been calm for the past couple of days. Conner introduce me to a sphere and a wolf. I know everybody and Batman got me my very own superhero costume. (look at picture. That's what her costume looks like. Not my picture and not what she looks like.) I'm in the living room watching a documentary Robin made for me about using and doing simple things. I learn everything pretty fast and i understand how to do most things now. I also been watching some tv shows and i see when a woman is cooking and is feeding it to the man he looks happy. Maybe i should watch some cooking documentaries. If i am able to make food then i'll make Robin happy. I smile at the thought when everybody went into the living room. "Arika come on we have a mission."Said Megan.
"A mission?" I asked
"There's trouble in town, go change into your costume." Said Zatanna I nodded and ran off to put on my suit. I did it quickly came back into the living room. They led me to a ship and we headed to town.
When we got off of the ship cars are upside down and some burning. People running and people screaming. It hurt my ears a little but i have to do something to help. I ran to the direction of the destruction. There was a lion like creature with 4 arms and a huge hammer. "Oh no, rip roar." I look at Wally.
He turn over a car and then started to hit a building. We all split and started to attack rip roar. I stay back and observed first. After a while I step in. "Hey rip roar, over here!!!" I Shouted
When i got his attention he charged at me. I waited there standing my ground. Just as i was about to jump over him he stop. he look at me and stare, like he was looking for me. "Come with me or i'll destroy everything." He said

I nodded my head no and started to attack him. I took out my moon knives and stabbed him once in the top right shoulder. It look like he wanted to attack me but didn't. I attack again but he grab my arm and try to hold me down. I stab him with my other arm and he let go making me drop to the ground. I started to run. I ran as fast as i could down the street. He is running, chasing after me. Then robin threw something on his face. Smoke blocking his view making him stop and cover his eyes. I ran to where Robin is. "Arika are you ok?" I nodded my head.
Then i try to get closer to him but then a big yellow object took Robin. I look at the direction and saw Rip Roar tackled down robin. I look for the others and saw they are on the ground in pain. I removed my hands from my ears and got ready in a fighting position. "Now Arika, Your father wants you back." I stare at him in fear, the mention of my father wanting me back scare the living daylights of me.
"He's lucky he has something i want or else i wouldn't be bothering with this child's play." He took a step towards me.
I was still frozen at the spot. I mean he wants me back. what would happen if he captures me again? "ARIKA RUN!!!" I look towards Robin trying to get up.
Rip Roar is really close to me. I started running full speed away from him, Rip Roar chasing behind my tail. I ran down the street then through a small ally. He can't fit in there. I still didn't want the chance of him reaching me so i ran deeper and deeper into the alley. But then i was trap. There in front of me is a dead end. A clear slippery wall. "At least i'm awa-" I was cut off by a loud noise.

I look back and saw Rip Roar destroying the buildings to get to me. I fell to my knees realizing i can't take him on my own. I'm going to go back to my father. I'm going to suffer. I'm never going to see Robin ever again. But i have to. In order to save Robin, Megan, Conner, and the rest. I stood up and went towards Rip Roar. I was face to face with him. "If i go back you'll stop hurting my friends right?" I asked
"Yes." He said
"Can i say goodbye?" I asked
"No" He said.
"Do you have something to write with?" I asked once more
"No"
"Is that all you can say?" I asked
"No." He said.
I look around and to my surprise i found a spray can. "Can i do something first?" I said grabbing the spray can
"Fine"
"You can say other words instead of no." I said sarcastically
I grab the spray paint and started to write something down on the wall. When i finish i took a step back and look at my art work. I smile a little then i let Rip Roar take me to father.
Robin's Pov
I am still struggling to stand up. I need to get to Arika. She needs me. I finally stood up and ran or at least try to run to Arika. I found Wally on the floor on is back holding his stomach. He's awake but in pain. He just stare at the sky trying to ignore the pain. "Wally, Where's Arika!?" I asked frantically
"I don't know? Why! What happen!?" He stood up quickly.
"Rip Roar after her!" I said
He ran off probably trying to look for her.
i ran down the street and saw an alleyway and buildings around it half destroy. I ran in and went into a dead end. I look around and on the floor is her moon knives laying on the ground. I went to them and pick them up. I look at the wall and a message is written on.
Dear Robin
I'm sorry. I didn't want you or any of my friends to get hurt. These past few days were the best days of my life. I'm probably gone when you read this and you might never see me again. I'm sorry for causing you so much trouble. Thank you for teaching me the most simplest things anyone can do. I wanted to try to cook because on TV the women who fed the food they make to the man, he's always looks happy when he eats it. I wanted to do that but i didn't have enough time. I'm sorry. I know there's a lot of sorry's. I'll miss everyone and tell them that they should take care. But i won't miss them as much as i'll miss you. I'll think of you every moment i'm with him. I'll just keep thinking about you. If i die i might as well just write this. I'm sorry i couldn't say it in person. I love you.
sincerely
Arika
I drop the knives and i fell onto my knees. She loves me. She loves me. Thats all i could think of, she loves me. I should've told her sooner. Tears fell from my eyes. I useless. Why,why,why,why,why. I cover my eyes with my hands and stay there crying. "I love you too.............I LOVE YOU TOO!!!!" I shouted to no one. My cry turn into a horrible sob. I couldn't stop. After a while i knew the team was in back of me reading the message on the wall. Probably twice. "AAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGRRRRRRRRRRRRRRHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Ars Magica
Our vision comes back into focus. Our eyes, while being able to perceive the immediate surroundings, still leave us with our minds uncomprehending towards what is actually occurring. Sure, there are definitive things that we can focus on, like the fact that we're either out upon the open sea or the open ocean, there not being much of a difference with no land in sight, as well as the fact that we appear to be upon a haphazardly constructed metal boat, whose seams are barely able to keep a hold of themselves in the crashing waves. However, that does not let us understand what exactly is causing the waves in the first place. If we were to rewind time, we'd find ourselves upon a calm sea under a peaceful sky with the only difference, being a small whirlpool that would be the precursor towards this uproar around the boat. Lightning flashes in the sky, with no clouds being near, and anyone actually manning the boat has either died towards the cause of the smashing tides in the first place, or are fighting amongst the flashes of lightning, all while trying not to become devoured, demolished, and utterly decimated by the beast roiling in the whirling waves. To better understand exactly what is happening here, there is one singular event that needs to be understood, that needs to be explained, and that is the arrival of a creature named Dave. Stepping back from current events and going towards this creature's first appearance in the world, we begin to hear the sound of water slowly dripping across rocky ground. The cavern is utterly silent except for this one constant, its cause feeding channels downwards, sloping towards cracks in the rubble along the floor from broken stalagmites and stalactites. And there, lying on top of something which had fallen over recently, judging from its cracks, is a person, the creature named Dave. His form is fast asleep, either from the impact or from an intoxication, judging from the smell upon its breath. A bright light suffuses into it for a second, giving life towards the pale skin, before it slowly dies down back to the comfortable black of the cave that it's within. Before this moment in time, Dave did not exist in the physical world. At least, not in the reality that he finds himself born into. We do not know whether or not his existence is simply a cosmic joke, or something that is being played out on purpose. All that we do know, is that one moment, the body was not in the cave, and simply formed in the next. The actual earliest time that we know Dave exists, is the interpolation of the memories of J-209, which we'll begin looking into shortly to gain context towards the coming narrative that is being written and hastily trying to keep itself written. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Warning: This story has several things which might turn its readers away. The first is that this story has shifting points of perspective. Don't worry about that previous sentence too much though, as the main character will always have a first person perspective associated with them. However, any other character from which we're viewing the story from will either be in third-person, as we are not necessarily in their shoes at the moment, or in first person, given that the narrator is an actual physical presence within the story. For the most part, chapters will be self-contained with their perspectives, so there will not be an abundance of switching perspectives within the same chapter. The most that an average reader would have to worry about is the fact that perspectives can switch between chapters. The second thing is that the main character is a bit on the 'special' side of things. He's not exactly mentally there most of the time, so there will be some times that his personality or his thoughts do not actively align with his actions. The third, and final thing of importance, is the fact that past the first couple of chapters, nothing has been planned in advance. There are arcs and plots that I want to do, want to implement, or have already been set into motion from our main character's introduction to the world, but the method that I use for my story writing and generating leads towards a bit more random chance being enabled. Basically...there's a lot of dice rolling behind the scenes. To not complicate the story further than its regular LitRPG elements, the rolls will not be publicly available. However, there will be knowledge within the author's notes on whether or not there were positive or negative critical rolls that had occurred within the chapter. You have been warned. Updates: Mondays & Fridays (Schedule permitting) Typical Chapter Length: (2,000-3,000)
