《What A Clown...》33] He Dropped Down Dead...

"I am certain that the crime sprees in gotham will not stay like this. The city wont stay in these conditions." Dent said as We snickered.
"Of course not...they will get worse." He muttered Behind me as I took a glance at him.
"I am positive that if I win the election that-"
There was movement caught in a window and everyone shot at it. All the soldiers shot at it. All the ones in uniform did...except him. He shot at Dent. And Steven fell dead to the ground.
Everyone ran and joker blended in with everyone else. I ran up with the commissioner to see if Steven was okay.
He wasn't.
"Not this again...Except I wasn't the one shot this time." He said checking Dents pulse. "There goes another Dent..." He muttered a
and stood up as cops surrounded us.
"We gotta figure out were the shot came from." I said looking down at the body even though I knew exactly were it came from. "If he was standing there then tell me the angle the bullet came in. That should point from were it came." I said and the cops looked at each other.
"What are you guys waiting for do as she said." Gordon said and they all scrambled. We watched as the ambulance came and did their thing.
"Who killed him and why...so many important people here and he killed him." I muttered and gordon looked at me. "It could be the joker...last time something like this happened it was him." He said and I looked at him.
"Do you really think the joker would do this again it could be a copy cat trying to blame it on him. The Joker is unique and smart...he wouldn't do a crime twice." I said as he nodded slowly.
"You are right...This could be someone that maybe didn't want Dent to be Mayor. He does have a record and isn't in many peoples good books. Maybe to not draw suspicion towards themselves they copied one of jokers acts." He said
"Thats sounds way logical..." I smiled mentally to my self as a cop came up to me. "Miss V the doctors told us that the bullet came from below to his left side." He said and I looked to were I was sitting.

"Thats probably were I was sitting...in front of all the soldiers when they fired. Who ever it was is probably long gone. But depending how they left you could probably get a perimeter but I doubt you could get them." I said
"I need to go...I trust that you guys can take everything under control. Try to get a serial number on the bullet if there is one or check the cameras around here. Im sure you can get it. If you guys ever need help call my company and they will help you with no problems. Better than the CIA and all of those." I said and shook both of their hands.
"Im sure gonna vote for her..." I heard and smiled to my self as I went down the stairs. I started walking down the street and passed by a cafe that was showing the news on it.
"We are reporting live were Steven Dent was just killed while up on stage. Shot directly at the throat and police think that it was due to Dents not so squeaky clean background."
"Wow...who could be evil and clever enough to pull off a horrific scheme like that?" I heard beside me and I clenched my fist trying hard not to react without looking.
I looked over at him in his black hoodie looking at the T.V.
"What the hell are you doing here?" I said to him and he turned to me and smirked at me. "Just enjoying the fresh chaos of the world." He said
"Refreshing isn't it?" I said looking over at the rack of cookies on display. My mouth started to water as I put my hand in my pocket and felt a bill. "You want something?" I suggested motioning to the rack as I looked at the cookies and licking my lips.
"Get a few cookies" He said walking away and I nodded. I ordered a bunch of cookies and two Hot chocolates then walked to the darkest corner were he sat.
The shadows casted over him perfectly as he sat with his hands in his pockets looking down at the table. I sat across from him and set the drink in front of him. He looked up at me and his eyes lit up a bit as he sat straight.
"Bruce asked if your fighting again. I said that you are going to a tournament or something." I said to him and he giggled to himself. "Tell him I have my eyes on that trophy and am desperate to take it home with me." He said eyeing me up and I rolled my eyes.

"So I got them of your trail...they probably think its a dealer that was making deals with Dent that probably wanted him dead." I said and shoved a cookie in my mouth.
He smiled at me and laughed as I shoved a second cookie in my mouth. "What? Im Hungry" i said washing down the cookies with the hot chocolate.
"If ya keep uh, shoving giant cookies in your mouth like that you're gonna end up with scars like mine." He said and I choked on the drink laughing a bit. "Imagine...Wanna Know how I got these scars?" I said flipping the cookie between my fingers.
We laughed a bit as I ate another cookie. "I wouldn't mind anyways...If I got scars like yours...I like scars their like tattoos made from your skin without the toxins" I said looking at him.
He smiled at me and shook his head as I drank from my drink again. He looked so normal, well if it wasn't for his warpaint.
"Why do you wear you face paint what if someone sees you?" I asked looking at him as he looked down at the cookies. "I don't know...incase if they do see me they know its me." He said as I Shoved another cookie in my mouth.
He looked at me as I Munched on the cookie and I smiled at him. I saw him bite the inside of his lip as I sucked the chocolate off my finger. "Don't do that, Doll" He said playfully.
I got a cookie and put it in his mouth and licked the chocolate off again as he broke to cookie off. "I think I got a boner." He said and I Laughed choking on the cookie. "What the hell?" I said between laughs.
"What? Im only a man...and you are so gonna get it when we get home." He growled at me biting off another piece of the cookie. "Not if you don't catch me." I said and jumped up from my seat and nearly ran to my car.
I ran into my car and drove off. I drove as I stopped to a red light and saw him in a black car a few cars down. Once the light turned green I sped off into a lonely street with him behind me. I made a few turns trying to loos him.
After a sharp U-Turn I went down a alley and came to the conclusion that I lost him. I drove my car into my garage and locked everything as I slowly walked into the pitch black home.
***
I heard the dogs barking at the other side of the house but it stopped. They only barked for like half a second so it must have been a squirrel or something.
I slowly took my shoes off and undid my tie as I walked up the stairs taking the latex off of my scars.
I took my sweats and T-shirt out in the dark and started to change out of them. I reached down to get my shirt and looked for it with my hands.
"Were the hell is it?" I muttered to my self as I tried to look for it. I leaned over the bed searching from it and I felt something behind me. "You cant escape The Joker, V" He said and lifted me up by the waist then pinned me against the wall.
"Ouch what the? don't be so Rough..." I said as I put my legs around his waist. "What do you expect from a criminal like me, doll?" He stated mumbling.
"Everything hurts thats all..." I muttered as he forced his lips on mine. Yeah the kisses were so desperate they hurt. I don't care I think I'm a sadist or something anyways with him.
I ran my fingers threw his hair forcing him closer to me as I felt him smile against me. He pulled against me and dropped me.
"You know what? I think I can take a day or two without you." He said and I gasped at him breath less.
"Oh hells... know when I start something I am damn well gonna end it." I said walking up to him and kissing him as I fumbled with his belt and I pushed him against my bed.
"And you aren't leaving till you take that trophy home."

Who will gain strength and who’ll leave with trauma? Find out on this week’s episode of the Species Tournament! ................................................................................................... Additional notes (for those who want more details before giving the novel a try): - It’s a battle royale type of setting between humans, pixies, elves, and dwarves organized by a Television Channel from the Demon World. - The MC foolishly decides to join the competition and will struggle to redeem himself throughout the story. The unfolding events will force him and his friends to mature in different ways. - Each round will be held in a different location/planet. The rounds and the locations will become crazier as the plot progresses. - There will be a mystery aspect to the story, since the demons don’t really like spoon feeding contestants on what is going on. - You can expect some magic elements, though contestants won't have much access to them. - The members of each species will have their own unique worlds, back-stories, motivations, and traits. Some will fight for personal reasons while others for the sake of their people. The needs of many vs. the needs of the individual will clash on several occasions. - Finally, there will be twists and turns at every corner, so one should never get too comfortable.

The Cyclical Nature of Time
A girl’s life ends unexpectedly early, or so it would seem. Instead of eternal nothingness, she wakes up in an empty valley with no clue how she got there. Taking her predicament in stride, she sets out to do something about it. Unfortunately for her, the first couple of people she meets aren’t much help. They claim they haven’t heard of electricity and dress as if they were on a break from their job at a Viking-themed amusement park. MC is a somewhat normal girl. She's pragmatic and not very angsty. The story is tagged with anti-hero, but to be clear, she is not a villain. She does good if she can, she just isn't morally motivated to do so. The story starts out smelling of fantasy but will eventually shift towards sci-fi. It contains some supernatural elements and has a strong lead, but it is not your usual power trip. Expect a story that takes its time, but not to the point where entire chapters are spent on mindless chit-chat. I’m not into that. This is my first serious attempt at writing and I've learnt a lot writing this. Unfortunately, that shows. Chapter 1-10 is slow and rather pointless. Things get better, but it is not until chapter 25 or so that I began understanding how to structure chapters and to make them support the larger story. I publish about 3000 words a week (every sunday) but I write about 10000 words a week. Sticking to that pace, which is easy, the last chapter will be out by July.
