Dirge: *ignoring the squeeing Squee* And now, without interuption, I give you the FINAL CHAPTER of Johnny in Gotham. I think I'll change the name soon.

*deep breath* Elly C's been captured by the Joker who wants Elly's dad who is running from the police trying to save her with his ex-girlfriend Devi (who he still likes) and the Batman and Robin are trying to find him and Satan is mad because Robin likes his soon-to-be wastelock and NOW onto the story *phew*

"Would your father come for you?" Joker asked.
Elly thought this over.
They didn't have much of a 'father-daughter relationship'... He had locked out outside in the rain once because she spilled Spaghettios on his new comic. He always looked over Elly, at meaningless things that seemed more important to him than her. She was a roommate, not a daughter. And, to her, he was a roommate too.
No, that was a lie.
Elly loved Nny. She loved him like a father and wanted him to see her as a daughter. But he never did. And now that he had Devi, why would he need her?
A renegade teat slid down her cheek as she looked down.
"No."

Devi had to stop and rest. Johnny, of course, wanted to keep going, but he was always on adreneline AND worked out reguraly with his body carrying and stuff, so what did he know?
While they stopped, Devi sitting against a wall in an alleyway and Johnny leaning on the wall next to her, she decided to ask some questions about her daughter.
"So..." she started awkwardly, "how's Ellesandra been over the last twelve years?"
"Ellesandra?" Johnny's face was blank for a second before realization hit him. "Oh! I shortened it to Elly. That was a wierd name."
"Oh."
"She's... been fine. She was two when you dropped her off at my house, right?"
"Yes, I think so."
Johnny seemed distant; he did that sometimes. "Very quiet child... I thought about giving her to those adoption people, but they're filthy liers. You can tell by the way they dress." He seemed about to go on a rant, but she coughed and he caught himself. "Er... a very quiet child." he repeated. "Stayed upstairs and entertained herself while I... worked."
A shudder from his ex.
"She's a very good artist..." He was off in his own little world again. "She got that from you, I think. She hate's cheerleaders more than I do..."
"Now that's a surprise." Devi snorted. When Nny had visited her in the bookstore, before their terrible date, he had ranted about cheerleaders half the time. It was obvious that he hated him with a burning passion. She wondered, somewhere in the back of her mind, she wondered something really, really bad had happened to him with a cheerleader before his insanity rushed onto him. Wierder things had happened, right?
"Elly went to the bookstore every day. Since she didn't go to school, I think she was studying there..." Devi blinked her eyes in surprise. "She's really smart, really insightful." He laughed without humor. "But that's were the likness between me and her end. Her favorite food is marshmellows, for example." He shuddered. "Nasty little things, those white puffy things are."
"Huh." Devi made a thoughtful noise, and Johnny's head turned super fast to stare at her.
"Penny for your thoughts?"
Devi looked at him out of the corner of her eye. "...She isn't a murderer, is she?"
At that, Johnny burst out laughing.
"Ahhahahaaha!" He ended with a cough. "Whoo, that was funny. Elly, a murderer? You're sooner to become one." Devi laughed a bit at this. "She may act tough, and put up with the blood and the gore and such, but she hasn't the guts to kill someone. She'd rather kiss a cheerleader. Said so herself, she did."
"Ahahha..." Devi laughed a bit more. "Well, my breath's back to normal... Shall we go?"
"Finally..." Johnny grumbled, then put out a black gloved hand to pull her up. Devi looked in astonishment at the offered hand for a moment, before taking it and letting him help her up. After that, they kept running.
I wish I had brought the car... Johnny thought.

He didn't know where she was.
Batman had send him home, but, of course, the Boy Wonder (couldn't help myself) just couldn't leave Elly behind, even if she was the daughter of a Homicidal Maniac. He didn't really know what was going on between them, but he did know that he cared about her... more than a friend really should. He didn't know why; she wasn't really pretty (not ugly, but not model material), she had anger managment issues and it was pretty clear that she barely thought of him as a friend. But he liked her, and he wanted to save her before she got hurt, especially since she was in the hands of the Joker.
But he didn't know where she was, so he just kept searching. Catching the sight of an old warehouse and remembering that criminals, especially the Joker, had a tendancy to hide in warehouses. He had no idea why; he just knew that they did. Which was stupid wasn't it? They always found them there, so why couldn't they pick a better hiding spot?
Anyway, he landed lightly on the roof and began to search for a way in. Where was Superman when you needed him?

"Johnny!"
Johnny stopped, annoyed, and turned around to look at the green haired women rushing to catch up to him. "What?!?"
"I just remembered something!" Devi stopped in front of him. "In all comic books, where do villians hide?"
"I hide in a concrete house." Johnny offered.
"No-oo! Not like that!" Devi groaned inwardly. "In all comic books, villians always hide in old, abandoned warehouses. Do you know where any are?"
"Yeah," her dark haired companion nodded and pointed to his left. "There's a huge one that way... I complain about the gun shots there all the time."
Devi had a stabbing of fear for the girl who seemed to be her daughter, and started off in that direction. "Hurry up, Nny!"
And Johnny was slightly happy that she had reverted back to calling him his old nickname.

"Puddin'?" The Joker turned around to look at Harley.
"Yes?"
"Why do you want this 'Johnny' guy anyway?" she asked. "I mean, you're amazing at your job anyway, and- *ghak!*"
Joker pinned her to the wall and smiled maniatically (is that even a word?). "Well, Harley..." he stressed her name. "You do know that I have been trying to kill the Batman for years now, yes?"
She made a choking sound that could be registered as a yes.
"This man could bring Gotham to it's knees!" Joker let go of her and she fell to her knees, gasping. "He could help in what I've been wanting to achieve all along! I COULD RULE GOTHAM CITY!"
He proceeded to break into a bout of insane laughter, and several goons and Harley Quinn started to laugh hesitantly.
"I hate you all, you know!" someone screamed from the main room.
"I love you too!" Joker called back.

Elly struggled once more to get out of her bonds, but all she was achieving was a throbbing pain in her wrists where the ropes had chaffed her skin raw and the tingle of salty blood running down her hands and dripping onto the floor. There was a bruise developing under her eye where the Joker had hit her, right after she kicked him in the groin. Then he had told the goons to tie up her legs, which they did, although they got a couple of injuries from it, from black eyes to broken noses.
I swear to god, this guy may be more insane than Johnny! Elly wiggled her feet to try and loosen the ropes around her ankles, but they only rubbed at her skin through her jeans, and she winced. This hurts... "I hate you all, you know!" she screamed at the top of her lungs, just for the sake of screaming.
"I love you too!" was the reply.
A sudden thought filled her head. She was going to die. Joker couldn't find Johnny, so he was going to kill her.
Angry tears formed around her eyes, and although she tried to hold them back, they trickled down her face, and for the first time in her fourteen years of life, Elly began to cry.

After about two hours of searching through warehouses that Elly was not held in, Robin was about to give up. It was then that he noticed a large warehouse looming in the distance. He began to run as fast as he could towards it, sure that she was there.
When he was there, he scaled the cold walls (this one was stone. It's really old) and climbed eagerly onto the roof. Peering through musty glass on the top, he saw a black haired girl tied to a chair in a corner. Elly! Her name flashed through his mind, and he started to try to get in. Suddenly, he heard voices, and he crouched down. Maybe it was goons! The Joker had seen him!
But all he saw were two people dressed in all black, a lady with green hair and a man with messy black hair, running toward the warehouse. They stopped and crouched against the wall, right under Robin, and he heard them talking quietly.
"Jesus Christ, Devi, why can't we go in now?!?" a man's voice, slightly raspy with overuse, hissed from below.
"Because we have no plan!" she replied. This women, Devi, had a pretty voice, slightly sing-songy, and it sounded a lot like Lly's. "So unless you want to die, we should think of one before going in!" She made a snorting sound. "Always were headstrong, huh Johnny?"
Robin froze. Yes, Commisionor Gorden had said that Johnny escaped, and Batman was going after him. Robin only wanted the Joker, but with Johnny, too? He didn't think that he would be able to do it.
He looked down through the musty window again. Lly was looking more than miserable, and there were three goons in sight. The Joker and Harley Quinn weren't, however.
He opened the window, ready to leap in quietly, but at that same moment, three things happened.
A goon looked up, noticing Robin, and screamed out the newly accuired info. Directly after that, Johnny and Devi burst in, and the Joker ran into the room from the left. Robin leaped gracefully down, and ran to Elly's side. Her bright green eyes were red and puffy; she had been crying. This shocked Robin a bit, because he didn't know that she even cried. She always acted so tough...
"Ohmigod, Robin!" Elly grinned, showing all her teeth. "Quick, get me out of here! I need to kick that clowns ass!" Robin grinned and cut her ropes with a batarang (does he even use batarangs?) and she stood up on wobbely legs. She reached down into her boot and pulled out a knife.
"Lly!" Robin put a hand on her pale one. "Don't kill anyone!"
"Who said I'm going to?" she asked innocently, then looked at her father. "Yo! Nny!" Johnny looked up, and she threw the knife at him, handle towards him. He grabbed it, nodded, and slashed at the nearest goons face (I love that word... goon)
Robin looked in horror as blood was shed, and Elly wasn't even flinching. Well... with a dad like hers, who can blame her? He felt sick to the stomach.
"You awake?" Elly poked him, and he shook his head.
"Sorry. We have to get these guys before your dad kills them all!" Robin said, looking at the girl. She blinked. "Don't we want them to die?"
"No!" Robin choked. "But if you aren't going to do anything, I sure as hell am!" And with that, he leaped into the fight.
"..." Elly looked at him kicking the crap out of guys before Johnny could get to them. "You cussed." She grinned. "I've been waiting forever for that."
And she jumped into the massacre.

Elly C. was a hell of a fighter. Johnny, Devi, Robin and the unfortunate goons realized this soon enough. She could raise hell with her fists and boots, and soon most all the goons she was fighting were knocked out or bleeding to death. She turned, about to help her parents and friend, when someone grabbed her in a headlock. She made a choking sound, and the Joker hissed into her ear, "I'm not finished with you yet."
"Give up!" she managed as his hold tightened. "Johnny won't join you, you crazy loon!"
"Maybe if I have you as hostage, he will." His breath was warm and foul against her neck.
"Damn... you... He'll kill you... before... you can hurt... me..." Lly found it hard to breath, her breath coming out in ragged gasps.
"Then I'll just kill you." She felt a cold blade press up against her neck, and red spots began to appear before her eyes due to lack of oxygen. Suddenly, there was a loud crack of breaking bone behind her, and warm blood spashed against her face. She heard Harley Quinn scream, but cut off in a wet choke as her throat was slit by Nny. Elly fell to the ground, gasping for air, and she looked up at her savior before she fainted.
Devi stood, with a pipe held above her head, splattered in the Jokers blood.
"No one," she kicked his head, "touches my daughter."
And it all went black.

Johnny dropped his knife and ran over to his ex-girlfriend and daughter, dropping the spandexed lady to the ground and leaping over several goons, and Robin. Devi looked at the raven haired youth.
"He isn't dead, is he?" she asked cautiously, "Because you know he saved Ellesan- I mean, Elly."
"Nope, just knocked out and probably in a coma!" Johnny said cheerily. "Is Elly okay?"
"Yeah..." Devi picked her up with a bit of help from Johnny. "We have to get out of here. I think I hear police cars."
Devi and Johnny staggered out the back, wieghed down by the weight of their only daughter, and limped home as police cars surrounded the building, soon to find the bloody corpse of the madman and his girlfriend who had once terrorized Gotham City.

Dirge: Did... did I just finish? And did I just kill the Joker? Oh my god!
