Chapter 6: A New Day

~(Y/N) POV~

 I woke up in the silky sheets again well-rested and feeling calm. Coming back into the criminal life was very fun and enlightening. There was just one thing that hurts me still by coming back, and that thing is not being able to talk to Bruce and Alfred. Every single day since that I night I have gotten a few calls and voicemails from both of them asking me if I am okay. Instead of answering my phone, I just hit the decline button. I don't have the heart to tell them that I am a criminal yet. I may never tell them, they may just have to find out for themselves. I still care for them deeply, but this is who I am. Right now I shouldn't worry about this. Today is a new day and I am sure the Joker has plans for us today. I get out of bed and decided to take a quick shower. Once out of the shower I decided to go work out again. Grabbing my duffel bag full of weapons I head downstairs to the training room and run into Tyrell on the way. "Hey, Miss (Y/N). Heading to the training room?" "Yes, I am actually." "Cool. Walk with me? I am heading there too." "Sure." We both enter the training room and Tyrell heads to the fitness studio. I decide to skip the fitness studio and go straight towards weapons training, but what I didn't expect was to run into the Joker. "Hey Doll. You up to train with me today?" Hmm, this could be very interesting. I smirk and say, "We'll see if you can keep up." "oooooh hoho! Is that a challenge?" "maybe." "Doll, you have no idea what you just got yourself into." At this moment we both have a knife in our hand and we are staring each other down both in ready stances waiting for one of the other to attack first. The Joker decides to attack first and run straight at me swinging the knife down. I block his inner arm and go underneath to put him in an armbar and sweep his leg bringing him down to the ground. Going to put the knife towards his neck as a finishing move, he kicks my feet out from underneath me causing me to fall on my back. He quickly gets up and climbs on top of me trying to get the upper hand. Noticing this, I block my face and kick my feet up and wrap my legs around his neck bringing him back to the ground. "You know Doll if you wanted to be in this type of position you could've asked," The Joker says teasingly. This just makes me chuckle. I hold the knife to his neck. "I think I've won this round." "hehehe. Not so fast darling." With that, I am tossed back onto the ground and his knife is now at my throat. The Joker just smirks and gives me a hand helping me back up. "You're not too bad! Very good actually. I think you just need some more work when it comes to knives. Now, how good are you at hand to hand combat hmm?" With that, the Joker comes at me again trying to punch me in the face. I move out of the way and block his attack while punching him in the stomach. He comes at me again but this time with a kick. I move out of the way again and block his kick, I hit him in the shoulder and swipe his feet out from underneath him and down he goes. "hehe. Now, this is the most fun I have had training in a while." The Joker gets back up again throwing punch after punch and kick after kick, me blocking them and defending myself every time not getting once. Finally, I decided it was time to finish and I run at him. I jump up and swing my legs over his head and bring him to the ground and climb on top of him ready with a finishing punch. The Joker puts his hands up in defeat with a smirk on his face. I get off of him and offer him a hand up. We decide to take a break and get a drink. Tyrell was watching us the whole time and was amazed. While getting our drinks the Joker decided to ask me a question, "What else do you know how to do? I saw you with the guns the other day and I know you're very good at them, you're good at hand to hand combat, and you're not bad at knife combat either. What else do you know how to do?" "Well, I was in martial arts for a while. It was my way to vent and stay fit. I learned the sword, nunchucks, bow staff, sais, and defense. So I guess I know how to use a lot of weapons. I know gun defense and knife defense but not as well as hand to hand combat defense." "hmmm, Very interesting." "If you want I could teach some of the other stuff if you want, but I know knives are your thing, and I will say you are good at it." "Don't flatter me Doll." "I'm not. I'm telling you this with respect." All of a sudden I got a little nervous. This does not happen very often. "Maybe, if you're up for it, you could teach me some more knife combat and I could teach you whatever you want to know?" The Joker just stared at me and pondered this for a moment. Suddenly he just starts laughing and smirks. "Sounds like a deal to me. We should train together more often. I haven't had this much fun in a long time!" "Same." We both took another sip of our water. "Go get dressed, I want to talk to you in the conference room in 20 minutes." "Sounds like a plan." The Joker starts to leave the training room. "Heads up!" The Joker turned around just in time to duck the switchblade that was thrown at him. He smirks and laughs his hyena laugh. He turns back around and continues up the stairs. I couldn't help but let out a little chuckle. I left the training room, got dressed, and headed toward the conference room. Walking in I don't see the Joker anywhere. I decided to sit in his chair and put my feet on his desk just like he does. The Joker walked in with an amused smile. "Come on now, get out of my seat." "Make me." The Joker doesn't hesitate to come at me and pry me from his seat pinning me to the desk with my arms behind my back. He leans his head near my neck and whispers into my ear, "Gladly. This game is only just getting started." That sent shivers down my spine. I couldn't help but feel excited and somewhat turned on. The Joker finally let go and sat down in his desk and smirked at me while I sat down in the chair across from him. "Alright, what did you need to discuss with me?" "Well, tomorrow I plan on crashing a mob meeting." "Sounds enticing." "Very. I want you to come with me." "Alright. When?" "Tomorrow afternoon during Daylight hours. I found out that they now have their meetings in broad daylight. I want to make a deal with them." "huh... a deal with the devil." "What was that?" "They are going to be making a deal with the devil because lets be real there is no way you want anything to do with the mob is that correct?" "hmm, smartass. Yes, It's mostly to just mess with them. Those mob dealers are nothing. We need better criminals like you and I." "I agree. I'm all in. I love messing with them." The Joker just smirks at me and chuckles. "Good. You're free to leave." I get up and start to leave but not without looking back at him and smirking in the process. "See you tomorrow J." The Joker smirked at the nickname you gave him. "See you tomorrow Doll." With that, you both leave for your bedrooms lost in thought. Both the Joker and (Y/N) are locked in their brains trying to think of what this newfound friendship means and how it will turn out.
